In the span of a few thoughts, he already had an idea.
"Looks like no one had their fill from the last battle, so let's have another one. Let's meet this Winged Demon bloodline and their Divine Abilities!" Jiang Chen's appetite for battle had grown.
Destroying the Winged Demon bloodline's ancestor — that temptation was simply too great. He couldn't pass up such an opportunity. If he lost this chance, it would be extremely difficult to find another like it.
Among the Ten Bloodlines of the Demon Race, Jiang Chen had already wiped out several waves of their main forces. If he could finish off the Winged Demon bloodline's ancestor along the way, the blow to the Demon Race would be enormous.
At least half of the Ten Bloodlines had already been struck by him. For the Demon Race that was attempting a comeback, this would absolutely be a devastating setback.
The Heavenly Demon bloodline's arrogance would undoubtedly be considerably deflated as well.
Weakening the Demon Race meant strengthening himself. As one diminished and the other grew, the balance of power would shift dramatically. Most importantly, by destroying these demons, the threat faced by Myriad Abyss Island would shrink considerably. It would also be far more beneficial for the island's recovery.
"Everyone, get ready. Same old method — catch them off guard and strike where they least expect."
When dealing with the Demon Race, you had to be more cunning than the demons and more ruthless than they were. If you showed weakness before them, they would grow even more dominant.
But if you suppressed the Demon Race from the very beginning with overwhelming momentum, never letting them gain the upper hand, then the demons would feel fear just the same — they would feel powerless.
Every encounter with the demon race had proven this point time and again.
No matter how ferocious the demons were, as long as the preparations were thorough, they could be dealt with and they could be annihilated.
Jiang Chen had been cutting down demon ancestors one batch after another on this journey, and so far he hadn't failed once. This was naturally due to his own strength, as well as the formidable power of the Four Great Divine Beasts and the Gold-Munching Mouse clan.
But it was also inseparable from Jiang Chen's approach.
Every time Jiang Chen dealt with the demon race, his plans were impeccably crafted — he strategized first, then acted, keeping the demons dancing in the palm of his hand.
A human cultivator who played schemes better than the demons themselves. A human cultivator who knew every detail of the demon race's characteristics. A human cultivator who wielded even greater combat power than the demons.
For the Demon Race, such a person was simply their ultimate bane. Even in the ancient era, those great human leaders and figures hadn't possessed nearly as many advantages as Jiang Chen.
The first to arrive from the Winged Demon bloodline was a cultivator at the fifth level of the Divine Dao. This fellow transformed his body into a giant Peng's dharma form, and with a single spread of his wings, he could traverse several thousand li in an instant. This speed was truly terrifying beyond belief.
In the mere handful of breaths after Jiang Chen and his group had vanished from the spot, this Winged Demon bloodline's Peng Demon ancestor had already descended nearby.
However, this Peng Demon ancestor was a thoroughly cautious old demon. He circled high in the sky, not rushing to swoop down.
Clearly, the devastating aftermath of the battle that remained at the scene was enough to make his blood run cold.
The Peng Demon ancestor hovered in the sky above, his gaze sharp and filled with wariness, his mind brimming with vigilance.
"This area isn't particularly rich in fire-attribute energy. Why would a fellow from the Fire Demon bloodline be lurking here? Why choose this place for a battle?"
Doubts lingered in the Peng Demon ancestor's mind as he studied the scene.
