"Woo——"
"Woo-"
The desolate horn sounded again over Sunset City, like the god of death ringing the death knell.
Tens of thousands of Sunset City disciples stood on the tall city wall, looking solemnly at the red plain ahead.
"Rumble"
"Boom..."
The earth suddenly began to tremble, and the hearts and legs of Sunset City disciples trembled with them.
Beast Tide, some of them have experienced it many times, and some of them experienced it for the first time.
But those who grew up in Sunset City have long understood the horror of Beast Tide under the earnest instruction and influence of adults.
According to the elders, the land in front of them was originally black and covered with golden Spirit Rice. When the breeze blows, it looks like a golden ocean.
But I don't know since when, the golden Spirit Rice disappeared, replaced by a desert.
The black land disappeared and turned into red.
The red color is made of blood.
Most of this blood is from Demon Race, and some is from Human Race. They merge together and soak into the soil.
If you peel away this thin layer on the surface, you won't be able to see any color other than red except for the pale bones.
This is a war between the two strongest ethnic groups on land, Human Race and Demon Race, which has lasted for thousands of years.
Sunset City is Great Qi Cultivation World's barrier to trillions of beings, and these Sunset City disciples who face Beast Tide are the guards guarding this barrier.
Dozens of generations have fought bloody battles here. Countless people's blood has been spattered on the battlefield, and no bones have been left.
Now, they will follow in the footsteps of their predecessors.
"Rumble..."
A black tide suddenly appeared on the distant horizon, rushing over fiercely.
The face of the young Sunset City disciple couldn't help but turn a little pale, and there was a layer of greasy sweat on the hands that clenched Magic Artifacts.
They could clearly see that it was a black wave composed of countless Demon Beast, covering the sky and the sun, endless, and anything that dared to stand in front of them would be ruthlessly torn apart.
This can't help but make them feel panic and confusion. Can such an enemy really be defeated?
"Relax, Sunset City is impregnable. After defeating Beast Tide so many times over the years, you can definitely do it this time." An experienced Sunset City deacon encouraged him as he looked at the young disciple next to him who had a warm aura due to nervousness.
Zhang Yanhe swallowed hard, looked at the deacon beside him and said, "Steward Liu, I... I'm not nervous, it's just... my legs are numb when I stand, and I feel a little unruly."
Steward Liu smiled without revealing it. He pointed at the behemoths standing on the city wall and said, "Did you see them? These are [Spirit Crystal Cannon]. Ordinary Second-Tier Demonic Beast will turn into scum immediately after being shot. With a salvo, even Third-Tier Demon Beast has to avoid its edge.
We easily repelled the Beast Tide twice before, and there was no use for them at all. But this time, the city lord brought them all up. Without them, what is Beast Tide? "
Zhang Yanhe Looking at the ferocious and huge [Spirit Crystal Cannon], his confidence suddenly surged, and his waist straightened up a lot.
But he quickly came to his senses and said weakly, "Master Deacon, according to you, isn't Beast Tide this time more dangerous than the previous two?"
Steward Liu glanced at him displeasedly. He looked like a very honest child, but why didn't he open any pot?
"Ahem, don't worry. Master Great City Lord is here. Unless Old Flood Dragon, the other side of Black Water Great Marsh, takes action personally, Sunset City is impregnable." Steward Liu said confidently.
"Roar——"
A high-pitched dragon roar came from the horizon, and Zhang Yanhe suddenly shivered with fright, and Steward Liu's old face turned dark...
On the other side, Zhan Tianxia stood in mid-air, looking at the overwhelming Beast Tide, his face as calm as water, showing no emotion or anger.
"Black Water Great Marsh's Old Flood Dragon really can't sit still. This battle is very difficult."
A middle-aged man with a vicissitudes of life appeared next to him and spoke softly.
"Hmph, so what, Sunset City is not a soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others. As long as Old Serpent doesn't come out, if you dare to come, I will make it unforgettable for the rest of your life." Zhan Tianxia subconsciously clenched his fists and said coldly.
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Senior Martial Brother ah Senior Martial Brother, I have been in seclusion for so many years, but you are still like this, you haven't changed at all.
That Old Flood Dragon is very good. He has been hiding in Black Water Great Marsh for so many years. Now that he dares to come out, he naturally has something to rely on. Don't underestimate the enemy. "
"Isn't this the purpose of Senior Disciple Brother asking you to come out of seclusion?" Zhan Tianxia was unmoved by the words and looked at the middle-aged man beside him coldly.
"Don't worry, we've caught their tail. Just deal with Beast Tide with peace of mind and leave the city to me." The middle-aged man's tone was full of confidence.
Zhan Tianxia nodded indifferently, looked at the people waiting below, and said coldly:
"Send the order Qianri and supervise the battle East City.
Send the order Qianyue and supervise the battle West City.
Send the order Yin Shang and supervise the battle South City.
Send the order Niu Dazhuang and supervise the battle North City.
Send the order Zhuang Yuechan to inspect the city.
Let's fight together. If anyone retreats, kill them!
If anyone disobeys orders, kill him!
If anyone is greedy for life and afraid of death, kill him!
If anyone takes the opportunity to cause trouble, kill him!
..."
A series of words "kill" echoed in the world, and everyone's hearts were awe-inspiring, and they said in unison, "I will obey the order of the Lord of the City!"
After the words fell, everyone turned into streams of light and went in different directions...
"If they go, can they control the scene?"
After everyone left, the middle-aged man said softly to Zhan Tianxia.
"If you can't even handle this little thing, how can you take over from us to protect Sunset City in the future?" Zhan Tianxia put his hands behind his back with a cold look on his face.
"They are all very good, but after all, they are still young and do not have the ability to face Third-Tier Great Demon. It is better to let a few elders and Senior Martial Brother brothers watch."
"Hmph, it's just an appetizer now. It's impossible for that Old Serpent to fully attack when the situation is not yet clear."
The middle-aged man shrugged and said nonchalantly, "You are the commander-in-chief designated by Senior Disciple Brother. You have the final say."
While the two were talking, Beast Tide was already just a stone's throw away.
The person facing Beast Tide was North City. Niu Dazhuang was wearing a black outfit with a look of solemnity on his face. He slowly raised his right hand and waved it suddenly.
"Boom..."
"Boom boom boom"
Thousands of [Demon Hunting Ballista] set up on North City Wall launched the first round of attacks on Beast Tide.
[Demon Hunting Ballista] is a powerful weapon created by Heavenly Craftsman. It is powered by beast core and its bowstring is made of second-level beast sinew.
The arrow shaft is First-Tier Peak Grade spiritual wood, and the arrowhead is second-level Extreme-Cold Meteorite Iron, which is designed to break Demon Beast's tough Beast Skin and scale armor, but its effect on the spirit gang is limited.
Therefore, it is usually equipped on ships at sea to hunt Sea Demon that is large but does not have Spiritual Aura Body Protection.
But I don't know where Sunset City obtained such a large number of [Demon Hunting Ballista] and used them to defend Beast Tide.
Densely packed arrows fell into Beast Tide like raindrops.
In an instant, countless Demon Beast turned into balls of Blood Mist, and a large blank appeared in the herd. The blood color of Crimson Plain became three points thicker at this moment.
[Demon Hunting Ballista] Nearly ten thousand First-Tier Demon Beast were killed in the first round of attack, but only a few were killed on Second-Tier Demonic Beast.
The results seemed impressive, but they were nothing compared to the huge herd. In the blink of an eye, more Demon Beast filled the gap and launched an even more crazy attack.
[Demon Hunting Ballista] launched several more attacks in succession, casting a layer of Blood Mist over Beast Tide.
But Niu Dazhuang's face was still tight, not relaxing at all.
These results may seem brilliant, but what was eliminated was just some cannon fodder. Among Beast Tides of this scale, Second-Tier Demonic Beast is the main force in the battle.
"Sunset City disciple, obey the order, kill!"
Niu Dazhuang waved again.
Tens of thousands of Sunset City disciples, who had been brewing for a long time, released the first round of spells.
In an instant, colorful spells rose into the sky and fell into Beast Tide.
"Ouch..."
"Ho ho ho—"
Countless Demon Beast were turned into ashes under the spell craze.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Each magic circle was revealed on the city wall.
Each of these Array is at the second level, but almost any second-level attack Array that is somewhat famous can be seen here.
These Array were linked together by Formation Master by special means, launching a more powerful attack, forcibly cutting off a layer of Beast Tide.
Standing on the city wall, Zhang Yanhe couldn't help but feel a surge of heart. This is the confidence of Sunset City to guard here for two thousand years!
Over the years, Sunset City has gone through several city lords, and has completely built Sunset City into a battle fortress. Its attack power and defense power are the highest among Great Qi Cultivation World. Even if Two Great Sects attacks, it will have to pay a heavy price...
There seems to be a dividing line above Crimson Plain. Any Demon Beast that crosses that line will be hated by the power of the battle fortress Sunset City.
For a moment, Demon Beast's offensive came to a standstill.
Behind Beast Tide, Thunderous Demon King was walking around anxiously with its huge body. It looked at the steaming Blood Mist and said angrily, "Trash, they are all a bunch of trash!"
It took the initiative to volunteer this time and took over the task of vanguard. It just wanted to destroy Sunset City in one go and wash away its shame. Unexpectedly, before it even touched the city wall, most of the assembled cannon fodder was already dead or injured.
Although the ones that died were all ants-like First-Tier Demon Beast, when the number reached a certain level, it still felt a bit of physical pain.
The terrifying aura exuded from Thunderous Demon King scared many Great Demon around them to the ground and trembled.
"Whoever breaks the city will be rewarded heavily by this king!"
Several people around Great Demon looked at each other and cowered, and for a while no one dared to take the order.
It's true that even brainless people like Thunderous Demon King don't dare to step forward rashly, so naturally they don't dare even more.
This is not the first time to deal with Sunset City. Everyone knows that they still have some strength left. Isn't it just asking for death if they go up now?
Seeing their cowering appearance, Lei Ming was furious. His majestic gaze fell on a huge Golden Armor turtle and said in a solemn tone, "Golden Armor, go ahead."
Golden Armor complained endlessly in his heart, but he did not dare to go against Thunderous Demon King's will and offend it. His own death would be a small matter, but the safety of the group would be a big deal.
"Golden Armor obeys the order."
"Hey, why did Beast Tide withdraw?"
Looking at Demon Beast who was retreating like a tide after throwing the body parts and meat on the ground, Zhang Yanhe was stunned for a moment. Is it so simple?
Steward Liu on the side sat down directly and said, "Just now it was just an appetizer, and the real fierce battle will come next. Recharge your batteries now, because later, there will be no time to rest."
Zhang Yanhe scratched his head and quickly followed Steward Liu's example. Child Compass sat down, closed his eyes and concentrated, replenishing Spiritual Power's consumption.
Others followed suit, and the two armies suddenly fell into a strange calm.
"Look, what is that."
"Oh my god, it's so big."
A burst of noise woke Zhang Yanhe up. He curiously raised his head and froze in place.
I saw "hills" slowly moving towards Sunset City in the mountain of corpses Blood Sea.
Zhang Yanhe rubbed his eyes, what kind of "mountain" was this? It was clearly a huge "turtle", pressing up with heavy limbs.
"It's Mystic Armored Turtle. This is the race with the most powerful defense power of Thunderous Mountain and even Black Water Great Marsh. The [Mystic Armor Demon King] of that year almost shook [Black Dragon Demon King]'s position as the number one Demon King.
Later, [Mystic Armor Demon King] was killed by the Golden Crow Sect and several True Person, and their tortoise shell was taken and refined into Great Qi Cultivation World's strongest defense Magic Artifacts. "
Steward Liu looked solemn. The turtle shells of these guys were difficult to deal with, especially the largest one among them.
"Great Demon was dispatched so quickly. Among the Demon King among the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, only Lei Ming was able to do it."
On Heavenly Sound Mountain, three old men shrouded in black robes, a man and a woman were sitting at the stone table. The man was pouring tea for several people while talking, without any fear of Demon King in his words.
The woman picked up the tea cup, frowned slightly, and said with a hint of worry, "Are we just watching here? The Mysterious Armor family's defense power dominates. Can the Dazhuang child cope with it?"
The man spread his hands helplessly and said, "Second Child is determined to take the opportunity to train these juniors this time. He is the city lord. What can you and I do if we are anxious?"
"They are still a bunch of kids, Second Senior Brother is a little cruel." The woman shook her head, not agreeing with Zhan Tianxia's approach.
"The young eagles will eventually spread their wings and soar. Protecting them too well and doting on them too much is not a good thing for them." An old man with a cold breath said lightly.
"Yes, this is the original intention of Sunset City to only set up three city lords. Unless it is a moment of life and death for Sunset City, we can only hide in the dark in this life. Now Gui Bai has broken the rules by letting Little Fifth leave the seclusion early." Another old man put down the teacup in his hand and said coldly.
"The two Martial Uncle and Demon King are attacking the city. Isn't this a time of life and death?" the woman frowned.
"So what about Demon King? It's not like I, Sunset City, haven't killed me before. A mere Lei Ming is not enough to break into the city. Let's wait until the other Old Flood Dragon takes action in person." The last old man made the final decision and ended the debate.
North City.
"Send the order, [Spirit Crystal Cannon] prepare!"
