Chapter Thirty-Four: The Enemy Actually Has Three Million Golden Core Experts?

"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
The Black Tiger leader wanted to flee with the remaining members of his clan.
Unfortunately... it was already too late.
The death warriors of Lin Qiye's faction embodied the principle that desperate soldiers are invincible, elevating it to its utmost.
With their backs against the wall and driven by extreme rage, they unleashed a hundred and twenty percent of their destructive power.
Originally,
Lin Qiye had only instructed them to hold off the four thousand Golden Core cultivators for ten minutes.
As long as Lin Qiye slaughtered a thousand of the Divine Tiger clan's Golden Core experts,
he could then kill another thousand.
If they could hold out for two rounds, it would be easy to annihilate the enemy.
However,
the five thousand death warriors, in their furious state, more than accomplished the task.
Not only did they hold off the four thousand Golden Core opponents, but they fought to the death, killing over a thousand invaders. Combined with the fifteen hundred killed by Lin Qiye himself,
the Divine Tiger clan's Golden Core fighters were reduced to fewer than two thousand!
Meanwhile, nearly three thousand death warriors remained...
In other words, the situation now was this: Lin Qiye could slay another thousand Golden Core cultivators single-handedly, while three thousand death warriors could gang up on the remaining thousand Divine Tiger Golden Core experts.
It was almost too easy.
Death warriors, furious to the extreme, faced a thousand Divine Tiger experts who had lost their will to fight.
There could be only one outcome—massacre.
Ten minutes later,
the once formidable Divine Tiger clan was utterly wiped out.
Only the Black Tiger leader was left, his legs severed by Lin Qiye and taken prisoner.
"We've won! We actually won!"
"Thank you, Sovereign! It was your wisdom and valor that led us out of despair time and again!"
The surviving three thousand death warriors prostrated themselves before Lin Qiye, filled with gratitude,
yet as they gazed upon the bodies of their fallen comrades, tears streamed down their faces.
Joy and sorrow mingled together, a tumult of emotion.
They gathered the remains of their comrades with the utmost care, wrapping them gently in clothing.
They would return them to Angel Star for a proper burial.
"...Old Huang, though we only spent ten days together, we snuck out for a smoke every day. When I get home, I'll burn you a whole truckload of good cigarettes."
"Old Qi, you and your fiery temper... When you called last night, the only thing you couldn't bear to part with was your daughter, and you wiped your tears for a long time. Why did it have to end like this..."
A wave of sorrow washed over the battlefield.
But soon, grief turned into rage.
The corpses of the Divine Tiger clan became an outlet for their anger, blasted into blood mist and ground into fragments a hundred times over.
In the end, even the blood mist was burned to ash.
After venting their fury,
the death warriors were still unsatisfied. With wolfish eyes, they turned to the Black Tiger leader held by Lin Qiye.
"Sovereign, kill him! Slice him a thousand times! Avenge our fallen comrades!"
They stared fiercely at the Black Tiger leader.
Lin Qiye held them back,
his features severe, his gaze icy, radiating a commanding presence.
"Don't be hasty. I want to ask him a few questions first."
With that,

Lin Qiye looked coldly at the Black Tiger leader.
"Speak. How many Golden Core experts does your side still have? If you tell the truth, I might consider sparing your life."
The Black Tiger leader coughed up blood. Though already half dead, he still wore a face full of pride.
"Heh, am I afraid of death? I swore before the Tiger God's statue—never to betray the Divine Tiger clan."
"But... such information, I can tell you without concern."
He shook his head arrogantly.
"Our Divine Tiger Universe is vast and boundless, with a total of four million Golden Core experts! More than three hundred thousand at the pinnacle of the Golden Core realm!"
"Though I die today, in three months a force of ten thousand, even a hundred thousand, Golden Core experts will come to suppress you! Your flesh and blood will fertilize our fields!"
The Black Tiger leader gazed at Lin Qiye with half pity, half mockery,
the look one gives a wretched insect—utterly infuriating.
The death warriors wished they could gouge out his eyes,
and make him swallow them.
But Lin Qiye raised his hand, stopping them.
The Black Tiger leader sneered.
"Afraid now? Despairing? You only have three thousand Golden Core cultivators left. Even with your talent, you can't resist ten thousand Golden Core experts."
"I'm not afraid of death. To die expanding the Divine Tiger clan's territory is an honorable end.
It's only a pity I won't witness your universe's destruction..."
He threw back his head and laughed.
The death warriors ground their teeth.
He spat, "What are you looking at?! Not convinced? Do you really think you can nurture ten thousand Golden Core experts in just three months?"
"Haha, don't make me laugh. Such a technique defies the natural order—it cannot exist! Our Divine Tiger clan has existed for a million years and never seen such a thing!"
"So you are powerless to turn the tide. The Divine Tiger clan will crush you!"
"My soul will watch from above as you perish!"
The Black Tiger leader's laughter was wild.
Even in death, he wanted to instill fear in his enemies, to torment their minds and rob them of sleep.
Yet...
the death warriors looked not fearful, but strangely amused, watching his rampant laughter.
Nurture ten thousand Golden Core experts in three months?
A technique unseen in a million years?
Well...
Sorry.
The super powerhouse standing before you possesses exactly such a technique.
The death warriors, with odd smiles, looked to their Sovereign.
"Sovereign..."
Lin Qiye, his features stern, waved his hand dismissively.
"I have another question. How do you cross universes? Do you simply use the Shrinking Earth technique and travel for three months?"
At this,
the Black Tiger leader chuckled.
"That's right."
Lin Qiye frowned slightly.
"Even with Shrinking Earth, it takes three months?"
"No, mainly to avoid the spatial turbulence outside the universe—it wastes time."
Lin Qiye understood.

He silently activated the Genesis Simulation.
"Can a rapid teleportation array be simulated?"
[This simulation will consume twenty thousand Walking Points. (Currently remaining: 89,900)]
"Forget it, that's too much cost."
He did not simulate the teleportation array.
Instead, he severed the Black Tiger leader's finger to take his storage ring, then gestured, gathering all the storage rings scattered in space.
A total of five thousand rings, with resources enough to spawn four hundred thousand troops!
Lin Qiye could barely contain his delight.
Indeed, fortune comes with bloodshed.
War profits bring overnight riches.
He had to admit, Lin Qiye was addicted now.
Addicted to spawning troops, addicted to plundering.
Plundering plus spawning—double the pleasure!
A few gleams of icy excitement shone in Lin Qiye's eyes.
"If I want to defy fate for an SS rating... spawning troops is a good strategy. Golden Core experts can be spawned, as can those at the tenth level of Qi Refining."
"Double spawning, quadruple the joy... Only spawning Golden Core experts is a bit too ruthless."
"But faced with three million Golden Core opponents... spawning troops is the only way to win."
Lin Qiye pondered deeply.
While he was lost in thought,
the death warriors could hold back no longer.
They bowed respectfully to Lin Qiye.
"Sovereign, we beseech you to continue the death warrior plan! We must create three million death warriors!"
"Yes, Sovereign, if we don't wipe out the Divine Tiger clan, they'll find every means to exterminate us."
"This is a war between two races—one must be destroyed!"
"We must not only follow the death warrior plan, but also strike back! Conquer the Divine Tiger Universe! Kill them all!"
The death warriors had fallen into madness.
The Black Tiger elder cackled nearby.
"Ha ha ha... Are you dreaming in broad daylight?"
"You three thousand, wish to invade and conquer our entire Divine Tiger Universe?"
"Do you really believe you possess immortal techniques?"
The Black Tiger leader laughed so hard he coughed blood.
Lin Qiye glanced at him silently.
"I suddenly feel like keeping you alive. You fool, open your eyes wide and see how I flatten the Divine Tiger Universe!"
Lin Qiye exuded a domineering aura, his tone icy.
With that,
he shoved a handful of healing pills into the Black Tiger leader's mouth.
Then,
he led the remaining death warriors back to the capital.
Once there,
the death warriors were given a day's leave.
And Lin Qiye prepared to launch a new round of troop spawning...
