**Chapter 1236: The Demons Pouring Out**
The black hole swallowed the light, affecting visibility. Lin Moyu discovered the demon warships only when they were just a million kilometers away due to their deliberate concealment.
One by one, demon warships appeared in his sight, densely packed, forming a massive army.
Thousands of demon warships, each carrying a thousand demons, meant there were millions of demons.
Lin Moyu's expression gradually became serious. The number of demons dispatched this time surprised him.
But thinking about it, it made sense. The military star map was very important. For the military star map, it seemed the entire demon army in the seventh war zone had come out in full force.
If it were him, he would definitely do the same.
The human high command should have anticipated this situation, so the number of troops dispatched would not be small, which is why it took some time to gather.
Lin Moyu couldn't help but estimate in his mind. If they used a destructive strike now to completely destroy area 7-77, millions of demons here would die.
Even for the demon race, losing millions of demons was not a small number.
However, the human race did not choose to use a destructive strike but prioritized retrieving the military star map.
Such a collision between the two armies would inevitably cause massive casualties.
Even with a 10% casualty rate, it would be normal for millions of soldiers to die in this battle, and it could even result in the deaths of millions of human cultivators.
Choosing not to annihilate millions of demons without any loss, but rather to risk significant human casualties, could only mean one thing: the cost of a destructive strike was extremely high, higher than the cost of losing millions of soldiers.
It sounded cruel, but Lin Moyu felt his guess was correct.
A destructive strike was only the last resort, chosen only when it was certain that the military star map could not be retrieved.
Here, Lin Moyu could still feel the connection with the Human Emperor Network.
Although this connection was very weak, the Human Emperor Network temporarily covered area 7-77, which was an undeniable fact.
The Human Emperor Network could make simple judgments about what was happening here.
If the Human Emperor Network judged that the military star map could not be retrieved, it would notify the human high command, leading to the final step.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Moyu inhaled a large amount of starlight, exhaling a colorful glow from his mouth and nose. The space inside the War King Tower instantly darkened. At this moment, Lin Moyu was like a humanoid black hole. It was as if he had made up his mind, his gaze becoming resolute and cold. The law of slaughter surged, bringing intense killing intent.
"This is a real battle..."
"It's been a long time since I had a real fight."
Since exterminating the dragon race in the small world, Lin Moyu hadn't truly let loose in a long time.
Destroying the Gold-Eating Beast horde and annihilating the demon squads before were just small skirmishes.
Compared to the demon army in front of him, they were nothing.
The War King Tower continued to approach, and in the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides was only 500,000 kilometers.
From the perspective of the great world, this distance was already very close.
The demons also discovered Lin Moyu. Because he was alone, the demons obviously didn't take him seriously.
Since that was the case, Lin Moyu didn't hold back and continued to approach.
400,000 kilometers...
300,000 kilometers...
In his sight, the movements of the demons became clearer.
The demon warships lined up in a row, blocking the starry sky.
The warships were connected, their energies intertwined, forming a massive barrier.
The barrier almost surrounded this part of the starry sky, making it impossible to break through.
In front of the warships, the demon army was gathered, but their numbers were not large, indicating that more demons were searching for the star map.
Three planets, two stars, one black hole, and some inconspicuous asteroids and star fragments—all could be hiding places for the military star map.
Searching this entire area thoroughly would take a lot of time.
"4,600 warships."
Lin Moyu counted the number of demon warships, a total of 4,600.
That meant there were 4.6 million demons here, and each demon was at the God-King level.
Adding the demon army stationed on the periphery, the demons must have dispatched 5,000 warships and 5 million demons this time.
Not all demons were at the God-King level. Lin Moyu sensed the unrestrained aura of the demons.
Some demons were only at the eighth or ninth stage of True God.
But there were many God-King level demons, estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands.
In lower-level systems, it was rare to see a single God-King.
In higher-level systems, it was said that God-Kings were everywhere, but to say that tens of thousands of God-Kings could be dispatched at any time was only possible for an army.
Until the distance between the two sides was only 200,000 kilometers.
Hundreds of demon warships suddenly lit up simultaneously, and beams of powerful energy shot towards the War King Tower.
The beams were pure energy impacts, including flames, ice, dragon-like waves, and mud flows.
The demon warships seemed identical, but they actually had different attributes.
The demons appeared different in shape and size, like scattered soldiers, but they were internally divided based on the types of powers they controlled.
The colorful attacks descended in an instant. Lin Moyu calmly put away the War King Tower, spread his wings of the undead, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
He cut off the soul lock from the other side, stepping on the halo of the law of light speed, further amplifying his speed. In the next second, Lin Moyu appeared in the starry sky tens of thousands of kilometers away.
In front of the demon warships, there were several enormous black hole snakes.
At the forefront of the demon warships, a peculiar demon suddenly appeared.
It was over ten meters tall, with a thick and long body, and had several tube-like structures on its head that resembled musical instruments, hanging down like fine strings of a harp.
Its eyes were very small, but its mouth was very large, taking up nearly half of its body.
It also had four arms, but instead of ordinary claws or hands, they resembled four different musical instruments.
Lin Moyu had never seen such a strange demon before.
But upon seeing it, Lin Moyu knew its name: the Bewitching Demon.
The Bewitching Demon was bathed in starlight, with a giant star behind it.
It opened its mouth, emitting a strange tone.
At the same time, one of its arms moved, producing a similarly strange and low sound.
The hanging strings automatically plucked.
For a moment, a peculiar and eerie melody echoed in Lin Moyu's soul.
The Bewitching Sound!
The Bewitching Demon's signature spell. The Bewitching Demon did not have strong combat power, but its existence was more terrifying than any demon of the same level.
Its spells were simple but terrifying.
Outside Lin Moyu's soul world, a similar Bewitching Demon appeared, and the Bewitching Sound grew louder.
His soul seemed to awaken, slowly opening its eyes.
With a soul quality at the peak of the fourth grade, his jade soul was purple, with incredibly strong defenses.
The Bewitching Demon at the God-King level could not shake Lin Moyu's soul at all.
The soul gem on his Scourge Staff glowed with purple light, casting a layer of purple haze over his soul.
The soul robe, personally refined by Lin Moyu, automatically appeared, also radiating brilliant light.
His soul was completely unaffected.
