Chen Yi followed this line of thought, pondered for a moment, and increasingly felt it was possible. Based on his understanding of the current strength of the Demon Court in Taizhou Mountain, there were no fewer than a hundred demon villages of various sizes, with as many as a dozen comparable to Lu Chen’s village. This meant that the Demon Court could mobilize millions of demons above the third rank. Encircling all the strong cities and guard cities of the Human Race might not be feasible, but concentrating forces for a frontal attack, or breaking through from a guard city, would significantly increase the defensive pressure on the Human Race. If Lu Chen and other Great Demon Kings sent a portion of demons to the rear of the Human Race like before, they might actually succeed in a single strike. Thinking of this, Chen Yi shook his head silently; such a grand war hadn’t occurred in a thousand years, and it was hard to say if it would happen now. In any case, the changes in the Demon Court this time were too sudden to be ignored. "Senior Sister, Senior Brother, please wait here quietly. I will go find Uncle Master Yue Ruifeng and others to inquire about the current situation. Until I return, there’s no need for you to go anywhere, even if there are new tasks, wait for my return." Zhan Hongxiu nodded, said a few words of concern, and then invited Ning Xue and others, "Come, since Junior Brother said so, let’s drink and drink." Lv Cheng readily agreed, did not refuse, and directly took out wine and some pastry snacks. Chen Yi couldn’t help but laugh, said nothing more, bid farewell to the others, and flashed to the side of Yue Ruifeng and others. At this moment, they were no longer in the General Mansion but had come to the city wall, braving the wind and snow to observe the situation in the distance. Yue Ruifeng didn’t waste words and asked, "Young friend, have you finished your tasks? Are you clear about the current situation of our Human Race?" Chen Yi nodded, glanced at the deep dark forest outside the city, and replied: "Just now, I heard Senior Sister Zhan explain the situation. Uncle Master, do you know since when those scouts started disappearing?" "Yesterday evening, only eight hours ago. A total of three hundred and forty-two scouts from three strong cities and thirty guard cities have gone missing, with eighty outposts lost contact, and a total of over a thousand soldiers." Yue Ruifeng said solemnly: "Sky Dome City has sent orders, asking us to dispatch more scouts to investigate." As soon as he finished speaking, the burly Chang Sheng snorted, "Obviously asking us to send men to their deaths. Elder Yue, if you dare to agree, don’t blame me, Lao Chang, for being rude." Chang Sheng and Yue Ruifeng were both generals, but the military duties they handled were different. For example, Chang Sheng was in charge of the Vanguard Camp, responsible for directly fighting demons, while Yue Ruifeng led the Reconnaissance Camp, and two elders of the Grand Void Sect were responsible for the Assault Camp and logistics-related duties. Their divisions were different, but their status was equivalent, and they were mainly responsible for major decisions, even the orders from Sky Dome City could be adjusted according to the situation. Chen Yi didn’t pay attention to the bickering between the two. In fact, according to his thinking, it was undoubtedly best to stay put in such times. However, he also understood that if two armies faced each other and they knew nothing about the enemy, they would fall into a constant passive defense. Chen Yi waved his hand to release a Sword Dao Divine Intent Incarnation of the Five Divine Power Realms, which stood silently by his side, gazing into the distance toward the Demon Court. "Young friend, what is this?" Yue Ruifeng and Chang Sheng noticed his action and reacted: "Using a Divine Intent Incarnation to scout the situation in the Demon Court? Hmm, this is indeed a good method." The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the embarrassment in each other’s eyes. Generally, it was possible for a Great Power of the Five Divine Power Realms to split a Divine Intent Incarnation. However, using a Divine Intent Incarnation to explore the movements of the Demon Court was rare if not unheard of. After all, those within the Human Race who could reach the level above the Five Divine Power Realms were mostly pillars of the Human Race, not to be easily moved. Chen Yi looked at the two, smiling, and said, "I’ll go take a look. If the Demon Court is powerful, sending scouts out would just be sending them to their deaths." "Please, go ahead, young friend, please feel free." Yue Ruifeng laughed dryly and said, "On behalf of the Reconnaissance Camp in the city, I thank the young friend for your assistance." Chen Yi smiled, then controlled his Divine Intent Incarnation to fly out of the city, venturing into the distance amidst the wind and snow. Despite the fact that this Divine Intent Incarnation primarily focused on Sword Dao, under the support of his cultivation in the Heavenly Human Realm, it was not slow. In a blink, it reached over a hundred miles away. Chen Yi, controlling the Divine Intent Incarnation, suddenly discovered that when sensing the surroundings through the incarnation, the range could actually be increased. Originally, with his newly enhanced Sword Dao Divine Intent, he could perceive eight thousand miles around, but now, after the incarnation flew away, he was able to detect movements within eight thousand five hundred miles, and the range was still increasing. Chapters first released on novèlfire.net "I see, using a Divine Intent Incarnation as a medium can indeed expand the perception range... This is an unexpected gain." Chen Yi’s Divine Intent Incarnation unexpectedly reached a distance of two thousand miles into the territory of the Demon Court. All around was silent. Beneath the shroud of dark clouds, heavy snowflakes drifted down in the dim forest, blocking the view in all directions. Chen Yi surveyed the area, his Heart God Perception range could already probe eight thousand miles of Demon Land, but found that beyond the surrounding hundred miles, the area still seemed shrouded in mist. Within this hundred-mile range, his Heart Spirit was equally constrained; it was less a matter of sensing and more akin to using the incarnation as a medium to hear the hidden heartbeats and extended breaths of the demons around. After observing this, Chen Yi did not hesitate, his Sword Intent directly swept out. The dazzling silver-white light shone brilliantly, piercing through the gloom under the dark clouds, traversing a hundred miles in the blink of an eye.
