**Chapter 1325: Layout, Waiting, Demon's Eye**

In the middle layer area radiated by Fireball No. 6 in the Yellow Earth Desert, a large-scale base stood outside the living area of the Yellow Sand Demon Eye monsters.

The base was entirely built by stacking stones, with no aesthetic appeal beyond its considerable size.

Among the demon tribes, except for a few demons who appreciated beauty, most demons didn't care about such things.

They only cared about fighting, being powerful, and devouring other races.

The base built by the Stone Demons was just as disorderly, like a pile of random rocks.

Stone Demons rolled around inside the base, with a considerable number present.

The Stone Demons chose this location as their base to facilitate hunting the Yellow Sand Demon Eyes.

As for the Desert Giant Scorpions and Tree Monsters, they wouldn't bother with them unless necessary.

This also explained why Lin Moryu encountered so many Tree Monsters and Desert Giant Scorpions after entering. The Stone Demons simply didn't kill them, so their numbers grew.

About a hundred kilometers away from the demon base, on a tall "five, seven, three" sand dune, a small skull poked out from the sand.

The skull wasn't large; if not observed carefully, it would be unnoticeable.

Lin Moryu, tens of thousands of kilometers away, activated his undead vision to observe every move inside the demon base.

The demon base in the middle layer was different from the outer layer.

There were ninth-level Divine King demons inside, with a total of three. Lin Moryu had to be cautious in dealing with them.

The Starlight Galaxy Lich could create illusions to trap ninth-level Divine King demons, but it was unknown how many it could trap.

If it could only trap one, the battle would be much harder.

"The Starlight Galaxy Lich traps one, the Flame Galaxy Lich deals with one, and I'll handle one myself."

"There are still quite a few eighth-level Divine King Stone Demons left. Even with corpse explosions, they can't be instantly killed."

Lin Moryu contemplated tactics, aiming to design a suitable strategy.

Of course, these premises were based on the Starlight Galaxy Lich only being able to trap one ninth-level Divine King demon. If the Starlight Galaxy Lich could perform better, it would be easier.

Lin Moryu quickly formulated several plans. If the Starlight Galaxy Lich could only trap one ninth-level Divine King, he had one plan.

If it could trap two or even three ninth-level Divine Kings, he had another plan.

Lin Moryu even considered what to do if there were Minor Divine Sovereigns inside the base. His plans were comprehensive, leaving no oversights.

Once the battle started, it would be a battle of annihilation, leaving no Stone Demon alive.

He had already waited for two days, with Stone Demons occasionally rolling back from outside.

But none had gone out.

It seemed his plan had worked. Those Stone Demons believed the information he had brought back, truly thinking a human army was about to arrive.

To wipe out all these Stone Demons in one fell swoop, Lin Moryu was very patient.

Through his undead vision, Lin Moryu counted the number of demons inside the base and clearly saw their respective strengths.

The stronger they were, the more vigorous their soul fires burned.

The seventh, eighth, and ninth levels of the Divine King realm were distinct and clearly discernible.

There were the most seventh-level Divine King demons inside the base, a total of 423.

The number of eighth-level Divine Kings dropped sharply, with only 52 remaining.

Ninth-level Divine Kings were the fewest, with only 3.

Most ninth-level Divine Kings had already entered the deep layer, leaving only three outside.

These three were either relatively weak or had just recently advanced to the ninth level.

In any case, the strength of these three ninth-level Divine Kings wouldn't be too formidable.

This would make things much easier for Lin Moryu.

Most crucially, there were no Minor Divine Sovereigns inside the base, truly putting Lin Moryu's mind at ease.

After waiting another full day, in the last half-day, no more Stone Demons returned.

"It's about time to take action."

Lin Moryu silently approached like the grim reaper under the scorching sun.

The undead army had been poised to strike, with 10 Death Knight legions, 5 Bone Dragon legions, and a total of 3 million Skeleton Generals, surrounding the demon base from all directions.

They maintained a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers from the base, not launching any attacks yet.

The first wave of attacks would be initiated by the two Galaxy Liches.

The hazy Starlight Galaxy Lich and the blazing Flame Galaxy Lich appeared beside Lin Moryu.

Just as Lin Moryu was about to take action, the demon base suddenly lit up.

The sand in front of the base was blown away by raging winds, revealing a black surface below.

The surface was modified by the Stone Demons, with numerous demonic runes appearing on it.

The twisted and bizarre runes lit up, emitting a bloody glow.

The bloody light intertwined in the air, quickly forming a massive barrier enveloping the entire base.

The barrier wasn't completely enclosed but rather net-like.

Twisted black light, like thunderbolts, constantly flowed and surged within the barrier, occasionally protruding like venomous snakes baring their fangs.

Demonic barriers came in various types, with the most common being pure defensive barriers with immense defensive power.

Another type was an offensive-defensive barrier, with slightly weaker defense but also possessing some offensive capabilities.

The barrier before them was an offensive-defensive type, not only having defensive abilities but also offensive power.

Lin Moryu's brows furrowed slightly, "We've been discovered?"

The Stone Demons inside the base suddenly started moving, with their previously dormant soul fires flickering violently in the undead vision.

One by one, the Stone Demons moved from stillness to action, quickly taking up positions at the edge of the base, relying on the barrier for defense.

At the same time, atop a false mountain formed by a pile of chaotic rocks in the center of the base, a massive black eye appeared.

"The Demon's Eye!"

Lin Moryu murmured softly, realizing why he had been discovered.

The Demon's Eye was a military treasure used by the demon race, primarily for surveillance and warning purposes.

The Demon's Eye had an immense surveillance range. Higher-grade Demon's Eyes could even monitor movements within hundreds of light-years.

The small Demon's Eye inside the base, although tiny, could at least monitor movements within tens of thousands of kilometers.

His actions had been stealthy, but he couldn't escape the Demon's Eye's detection.

But this wasn't what troubled Lin Moryu the most. What truly posed a challenge was the Demon's Eye's second ability.

Besides surveillance, the Demon's Eye's second ability was to dispel illusions.

The Demon's Eye incorporated the power of Illusion Demons, giving it a natural suppressive effect against illusions.

With it present, the Starlight Galaxy Lich's effectiveness would be greatly reduced, perhaps even nullified.

The barrier was also formidable. Even the Flame Galaxy Lich wouldn't be able to easily break through it.

With three ninth-level Divine King demons inside the base, their combat power was equally formidable.

The demon base had become a porcupine, difficult to breach.

Lin Moryu's gaze remained calm, having already devised a countermeasure.

He made some minor adjustments to the series of battle plans he had previously formulated.

The Starlight Galaxy Lich, originally meant to take action first, didn't move, and the Flame Galaxy Lich also halted.

Lin Moryu's gaze was fixed on the Demon's Eye, which seemed to have noticed him and turned its attention towards him.

The Demon's Eye had discovered Lin Moryu, and the three ninth-level Divine King demons also noticed him.

They appeared at the forefront of the base, staring at Lin Moryu.

"There really are humans!"

"How did a mere True God realm cultivator reach this place?"

"He's probably a scout, with the main army behind."

"But a True God realm as a scout?"

"Who knows, the human race is cunning. We must be careful."

"Fortunately, we opened the barrier and have the Demon's Eye. The human race's actions can't be hidden from us."

"That clansman who returned with severe injuries should be well rewarded. Otherwise, we might have been ambushed by the human race."
