**Chapter 976: Not Like War, More Like a Collective Task**
As other human cultivators above the super god realm rushed into the barrier, each of them sharpening their blades and preparing for a great battle, what greeted them were countless demon corpses.
The corpses were like shattered meteors, floating freely in the starry sky.
Everyone was stunned.
They stared wide-eyed, "How could this be?"
"What happened?"
"Why are all the demons dead? Wasn't there supposed to be a demon army?"
"What's going on? Someone tell me..."
"I found one, there's a live one!"
Someone discovered a demon that wasn't completely dead yet, as if finding a treasure, and immediately struck it down to take the opportunity.
"Could it have been done by that person earlier?"
"Impossible, how could he alone kill so many demons?"
"It's not possible. There were at least tens of thousands of demons. Even a true god couldn't kill them all."
"Exactly, the demons aren't fools. If they couldn't win, wouldn't they just flee? Besides, how is it possible for one person to take on an entire army alone?"
It's possible!
Of course it's possible!
Ren Qiang had a disdainful look, for he knew that while others couldn't do it, Lin Moyu could definitely accomplish it.
Although he didn't know how Lin Moyu did it, he believed that Lin Moyu was absolutely capable of it.
After spending time with Lin Moyu, Ren Qiang had developed a blind trust in him.
Now, with the facts before his eyes, he felt that Lin Moyu had slapped those who said he was going to his death right in the face.
It was a crisp and resounding slap.
"I found the demons, live ones!"
Someone shouted in surprise.
Deep in the starry sky, there were still many demons frantically fleeing.
Behind them, skeletons were in pursuit, killing any demons that couldn't flee fast enough on the spot.
Upon discovering the demons, the human super god cultivators immediately gave chase.
A great battle had just ended in front of the life stars.
Facing Lin Moyu's undead legion, the demon army swiftly collapsed, offering no resistance at all.
Even the strongest peak super god demons in the army were easily slain by Lin Moyu.
The entire process was ridiculously fast, from start to finish taking less than five minutes.
Lin Moyu's actions told the demons: You are too weak.
The fleeing demons were heading towards the edge of the star system.
The undead legion pursued relentlessly, not intending to let them escape.
Lin Moyu sensed the aura of the human cultivators and smiled faintly, recalling the undead legion.
Since they had arrived, he would let them handle the rest.
He had already eaten the meat, so he would leave the soup for others.
There weren't many demons left, no more than thirty thousand.
With their fighting spirit completely shattered, these thirty thousand demons faced the killing intent of a million human super gods. The outcome was predictable.
Lin Moyu remained still in the starry sky, his gaze sharp as he scanned back and forth.
Even now, he still felt that something was amiss.
He was now very certain that the fall of Star System 52 was a trap set by the human race for the demons.
Using an entire star system as bait to lure the demons in.
But could the demons really be so foolish as to not realize this?
The impression the demons gave Lin Moyu was that they were not foolish, at least not the Abyss demons.
How could they be so easily deceived?
Could it be that the demons of the great world were more foolish than those of the small world? Or did they have their own agenda?
Regardless of their agenda, this great battle had stirred up memories in Lin Moyu.
He recalled how he had fought great battles against the dragon race in the small world.
Back then, the dragon race's puppet soldiers had also come, only to be killed by him.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up. "Puppets?"
Lin Moyu thought of the dragon race's puppet war generals...
These demons now seemed somewhat similar to puppets.
Except for the few that fled, the vast majority were fearless and their eyes appeared somewhat dull.
Similar to the dragon race's cloned puppet war generals from the small world.
With this thought, Lin Moyu understood.
Only those demons that fled were the real demons.
The rest were merely puppets, not even as good as puppets.
What he could understand, he knew the Human Emperor Network must also understand.
But why do it this way?
As the demons were killed off, fewer and fewer remained in the star system.
Although the barrier restricted those above the super god realm from entering, it also prevented them from escaping.
Within the barrier's range, teleportation magic stones could not be used.
Suddenly, a gaze swept over, filled with hatred.
Lin Moyu's soul was extremely sensitive, instantly detecting this gaze.
He saw a demon escape through the edge of the barrier, holding an exquisite magic stone in its hand. This was a super god ninth stage demon, wearing exquisite armor.
Before leaving, it glanced at Lin Moyu, its eyes filled with intense hatred.
Lin Moyu had a vague sense that something was off. This demon's strength didn't seem inferior to a peak super god.
Moreover, the armor it wore was extremely exquisite, different from the other demons.
It seemed to be the only demon of its kind in the entire army.
Lin Moyu judged that this one's status in the demon race couldn't be too low.
After glancing at Lin Moyu, it quickly slipped out of the barrier.
The magic stone in its hand had already been activated, probably to take it away from here.
"Who is this?" Lin Moyu wondered in his heart, with a hint of doubt.
This battle had always made him feel strange, not like a real war.
More like a task, a collective large-scale task.
Under the pursuit of the humans, the demons who had become caged birds were finally killed off.
A total of 300,000 demons, and only one truly managed to escape.
Without the power to sustain it, the barrier finally collapsed.
The defensive arrays on the life stars also gradually ceased operation.
The crisis in Star System 52 of the Suzaku Star Region was thus resolved.
The star system remained intact, and not a single one of the million human super gods died, with only a few suffering minor injuries. It could be said that the humans had won a complete victory.
This result was solely due to Lin Moyu's efforts.
He alone had shattered the entire demon army, allowing such a battle outcome.
**[Everyone return outside the star system and await the reward calculation.]**
The Human Emperor Network's order came again.
Everyone followed the order and quickly returned.
Lin Moyu also followed the crowd back, but everyone kept a distance from him.
There was something off in the way they looked at him.
There was reverence, but also fear.
In any case, everyone kept their distance from Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu finally looked back at the four life stars in Star System 52.
Until the end of the battle, when the array stopped, no one had come out from the four life stars.
This situation completely defied common sense.
It could only mean that someone was pulling the strings behind the scenes, and that someone had to be the Human Emperor Network.
They left the star system and regathered outside.
**[Beginning reward calculation, please wait.]**
**[First place...]**
