Chapter 623: Chapter 623: Ambitious Figures Emerge One After Another

"So that’s how it is. I didn’t expect you to uncover this issue. Impressive," the Skull King said. Though it sounded like praise, his tone was actually very grave. Fang Jie knew that this meant a deep rift had formed between them, but he couldn’t care less.

After all, this was all happening behind the scenes, and on the surface, he was still a subordinate to the other party.

Moreover, considering the numerous Defense Towers at his base, he figured the other party wouldn’t dare to come over.

Even if the base’s attacks were continuous and powerful, their absorption could cause imbalance to the assailant. Learning from past lessons, no one would risk their life to test it out.

Not to mention, Fang Jie was the one who had orchestrated it. He was certainly capable of doing it again.

"You think I have a powerful organization backing me? Are you testing me?"

Fang Jie thought silently, but his expression revealed nothing. "Not at all, it was just a little experiment. We didn’t expect it to have such a significant effect," he said, deliberately using "we."

In the ears of the other party, these words had a different implication.

Whether there was a Demigod behind the method they’d developed, they did not know.

And to have means to combat a Demigod... that organization had to be no simple entity.

"Alright, I’ll need you to continue defending the border. Report directly if you need anything," the Skull King said, no longer wanting to discuss the matter further. The incident could no longer be concealed.

He had wanted someone to witness it, but Fang Jie had spoken out unexpectedly.

In fact, Fang Jie had noticed the many people nearby, which is why he acted as he did. He didn’t need to go out and spread the news himself; he quickly explained all the principles right there.

The principle was simple, and Fang Jie cleared it up in just a few words.

The Skull King didn’t even have time to react. By the time he did, it was too late.

Others had various thoughts, and the news was quickly sent out by all kinds of means. Given the sieve-like nature of the Undead Clan, the information was soon known to nearly all of the high ranks.

Even some minor Nobles with connections were aware of it.

It turned out that Demigods were not so unapproachable after all. With the right methods, they too could be killed. Producing such a scale of energy output was not easy, but not impossible.

The battle between Fang Jie and the Beastmen continued — there was no helping it, the Beastmen couldn’t stop now.

Even if they wished to, Fang Jie did not. To come and go as they pleased, as if they owned the place. However, because of earlier events, the Beastmen dared not send Demigods to cause trouble anymore.

During this time, Fang Jie’s spies quietly spread among other races finally brought some news.

"Just as I thought. I knew it wouldn’t be long before their attention shifted away from me."

Fang Jie looked at the messages and was very satisfied. As expected, with the news he had released, ambitious figures began to emerge. After all, many families or organizations were extremely powerful.

But without a Demigod, they had no chance to rise to prominence.

Because if they dared to act rashly, those families with Demigods could easily crush them.

Yet now, the situation had changed. They needed to plan in advance and, if possible, take a Demigod by surprise. Even if they couldn’t manage that, they at least had the resources to defend themselves.

Especially those who dared not act recklessly before, now focused on areas known for massive energy output. Such places had almost become no-go zones for Demigods; they wouldn’t dare approach easily.

Without the threat of Demigods, merely Legendary Level was far from safe.

To avoid heavy losses, some places were no longer targets for others.

Ambitious figures continued to emerge, causing unrest everywhere. Areas controlled by strength inevitably fell into chaos due to the power vacuum.

Fang Jie’s own Territory was no exception. His strength had not yet spiraled out of control, and no one could surpass his own power. But this world was already changing.

The information Fang Jie had released was akin to a nuclear bomb.

Even within the Undead Clan, some had begun to dabble in these things. It was said that in the Zombie Territory, many under the two Kings were making moves in secret.

Now under pressure from multiple fronts, the two Zombie Kings began to purge their subordinates.

Those who had been previously disobedient were included in this purge. The upper echelons of Humans issued veiled protests, but without being able to make these issues public, they were mostly ineffective.

Had Fang Jie’s status not been high, such news would never have reached his ears.

There was also news regarding the border between Humans and Beastmen.

Humans were continuously increasing their military presence, supposedly to prevent an attack from the Beastmen. But to the discerning eye, this signaled the Humans’ intent to attack. After all, how else to earn military merit?

The Beastmen, having lost a Demigod and engaged in a fierce battle with the Skeletons to the South, couldn’t spare the forces.

Taking advantage of this, the Humans could deal a heavy blow to the Beastmen. The prospect of claiming vast terrains was beneficial for anyone. Military merit was now easier to obtain than ever.

Even the Elves seemed restless.

Over the years, the Elf Forest had been devoured by Humans and Beastmen alike, and now they hoped to seize the opportunity to reclaim some territory, to restore the forests. And the weakened Beastmen became the easiest target.

As Fang Jie watched the world descend into chaos, he felt his plan was nearing fruition.

If he could keep the Demigods tied up, and reduce their power to a certain degree, then he could freely extract the Origin Power of the world.

Everything else was superficial. Extracting Origin Power was the most important matter.

"It seems I need to add fuel to the fire, it’s still not enough," Fang Jie mused. Then he increased his military forces and secretly introduced several Plague Kings, sneaking them into Beastmen territory. This time, Fang Jie planned to attack the heart of the Beastmen, to show them the might of the Undead.

Given the Beastmen’s nomadic style, they were quite inadequate at defending borders and conducting investigations.

For Fang Jie, infiltrating deep into the heart of Beastmen territory was no difficult task, not to mention the assistance of a Mage’s Illusion Technique.
