Although Golden Tiger Demon General looks down on Lion Demon General, it would not reject temporary cooperation with it. In the view of Golden Tiger Demon General, its own strength is sufficient for defense but not enough for counterattack. If it can join forces with Lion Demon General, it may be able to defeat the human cultivators and completely drive them out of Demon Wind Gobi. However, Dark Crow Demon General did not say much about this idea, and its attitude showed that the outcome of this war was not important to it. Even if the humans win, it does not matter to Dark Crow Demon General. Even in the worst-case scenario, it is confident that it can retreat safely.

Long-hair Demon General tried hard to persuade Dark Crow Demon General, but it was unsuccessful in changing its mind. In the end, Long-hair Demon General had to leave. Its plan to unite various demon beasts had failed by more than half due to the attitude of Dark Crow Demon General.
However, Long-hair Demon General did not give up and went to visit Lion Demon General, hoping to make a last-ditch effort. Lion Demon General warmly welcomed the old senior, and Long-hair Demon General took the opportunity to propose that Lion Demon General and Dark Crow Demon General join forces to fight against the invading human cultivators.
Although Lion Demon General also hates Dark Crow Demon General and is almost at odds with it, it is more pragmatic. More importantly, when Lion Demon General was cultivating a Third Rank middle-grade demon beast with the help of a Fifth Rank great power, it promised to invade the Endless Sea of Sand with all its strength. In recent years, Lion Demon General has not been too concerned about this promise due to its own interests and is unwilling to suffer too much loss. However, it knows that the promise must be fulfilled sooner or later, not because it values its own reputation, but because it knows the terror of the Fifth Rank great power. Promises can be delayed with excuses, but they must be fulfilled eventually.
If there is an opportunity to severely damage the human cultivators now, it will undoubtedly benefit the invasion of the Endless Sea of Sand. After Long-hair Demon General’s persuasion, Lion Demon GLong-hair Demon General’s attitude made it clear to itself. The thought of the grudges and disdain from Dark Crow Demon General ignited a raging anger within, almost uncontrollable. Long-hair Demon General also knew that Lion Demon General must be displeased. It continuously reassured Lion Demon General, speaking kind words and promising that it could persuade Dark Crow Demon General to change its mind. Additionally, it mentioned that it could go deep into Demon Wind Gobi and persuade some Third Rank demon beasts there to lend their assistance.
Although Lion Demon General didn’t say much on the surface, it harbored resentment towards Long-hair Demon General. When Lion Demon General sought to unite the various demon beast forces in Demon Wind Gobi, Long-hair Demon General was cunning enough not to directly offend Lion Demon General. It appeared to agree and promised to consider joining the coalition. However, in reality, it played delaying tactics and constantly made excuses, failing to fulfill its commitment.
At that time, Lion Demon General was very dissatisfied with Long-hair Demon General. It was only due to various factors that they didn’t fall out. Now, Long-hair Demon General wanted to deceive Lion Demon General again. The newly formed grudges and old resentments surged within Lion Demon General, making it wish to slap Long-hair Demon General to death.
Lion Demon General endured and suppressed the urge to take immediate action. It struggled to control its emotions and continued to chat with Long-hair Demon General before finally sending it away. Lion Demon General knew in its heart that cooperation with Dark Crow Demon General had become impossible due to its attitude. However, Long-hair Demon General’s visit sparked a different inspiration within Lion Demon General.
Behind its army of demon beasts, Lion Demon General secretly began to take action. After Long-hair Demon General left Lion Demon General’s location, it went to visit Dark Crow Demon General once again.

On the side of the human cultivators, due to the inability of several Gold Core Daoist Masters to reach a consensus, a full-scale attack was temporarily postponed. Gu Yue Huaidie and Luo Ye, both female Daoist Masters, did not participate in the discussions between them, citing that they were not cultivators of the Endless Sea of Sand.
After a long stalemate, the Gold Core Daoist Masters of the Flying Swan Sect and the Northern Desert Qi Family began to show signs of real anger. Meng Zhang proposed that everyone should take a step back, calm down, and think more before meeting again.
After returning to the camp of the Taiyi Sect, Meng Zhang was brought a special captive by his senior disciple, Niu Dawei. During this period, although there were no large-scale battles between human cultivators and demon beasts, small-scale conflicts continued. Cultivators from the three factions formed formidable teams and hunted demon beasts in the surrounding areas.
Dark Crow Demon General’s subordinates, the Dark Crows, had a wide range of activities due to their flying nature. In the past, the numerous Dark Crow groups divided into teams and patrolled almost the entire Demon Wind Gobi. Wherever they went, almost no one dared to provoke them, and various demon beasts retreated.
Although the battle with Lion Demon General caused heavy losses to the Dark Crows, there were still many Dark Crow teams that moved away from Dark Crow Demon General’s lair and patrolled the nearby areas. Some daring Second Rank Dark Crows even ventured deep into the vicinity of human cultivators for reconnaissance.
As the Sect Master’s senior disciple, Niu Dawei regularly patrolled the areas surrounding the Taiyi Sect’s army. During one of these patrols, Niu Dawei happened to encounter this Second Rank Dark Crow. After a brief confrontation, the defeated Dark Crow tried to escape. Dark Crows, being avian demon beasts, had extremely fast flying speeds, making it difficult for ordinary Foundation Building cultivators to catch up. However, Niu Dawei, who cultivated the "Wind and Thunder True Solution" and was proficient in the Wind and Thunder Escape technique, was even faster. He caught up and captured the Second Rank Dark Crow alive.
Dark Crow Demon General was the number one enemy faced by the coalition of the three factions. Therefore, Niu Dawei attached great importance to the captured Dark Crow. He personally brought it back to the camp, intending to have the Gold Core Daoist Masters perform a soul search on it. Although Niu Dawei, as a Foundation Building cultivator, could also perform a soul search on the Second Rank Dark Crow, he decided to trouble the Gold Core Daoist Masters for the sake of thoroughness.
Meng Zhang happened to return and encountered this matter. Niu Dawei’s caution satisfied Meng Zhang, and after performing a soul search on the Second Rank Dark Crow, Meng Zhang indeed obtained crucial information. Dark Crows were already highly intelligent demon beasts, and the intelligence of a Second Rank Dark Crow was not much inferior to that of an ordinary human.eneral thought for a long time and reluctantly agreed to the proposal. Of course, cooperation against human cultivators is a two-sided matter. If Dark Crow Demon General is unwilling to join, then their discussion is useless.
When Lion Demon General asked about the attitude of Dark Crow Demon General, Long-hair Demon General became hesitant. Lying about this matter would be useless. As long as Dark Crow Demon General does not change its mind, Lion Demon General cannot cooperate with it. Lion Demon General is not a person of extraordinary intelligence, but it is not a fool either. It has a higher level of intelligence than ordinary humans.
