At this moment, the demonic beasts surrounding Baishi City already numbered over a hundred thousand. Most of them, however, had gathered at the eastern gate, which faced the Desolate Forest.
Sensing the overwhelming demonic power radiating from the countless demonic beasts beyond the walls, Qin Fengming felt a surge of fear in his heart. Faced with so many demonic beasts, even if a Nascent Soul cultivator entered their midst, whether he could retreat unscathed would still be hard to say.
Watching the many armored soldiers calmly arrange their troops, the tens of thousands of cultivators present also fell silent.
"Fellow Daoists, these demonic beasts have come to attack Baishi City. According to Baishi City's rules, any cultivator within the city, regardless of cultivation level, must obey Baishi City's unified deployment. If anyone refuses to comply, don't blame Baishi City's law enforcers for carrying out the law on the spot."
Just as the many cultivators stood atop the second level of Baishi City's walls, an elderly cultivator dressed in white armor flew above them. Holding a token in his hand, he swept his gaze over the tens of thousands of cultivators below and spoke in a deep voice.
"Fellow Daoist Xiahou, all of us have lived in Baishi City for several decades. Now that Baishi City is in danger, we cultivators will naturally do our utmost to help. Whatever orders you have, please speak freely."
"Indeed. We all know that if Baishi City cannot be preserved, the day the city falls will also be the day of our deaths. So, Fellow Daoist Xiahou, rest assured. We cultivators will certainly fight with all our strength and battle the demonic beasts to the death."
Following the white-armored cultivator's words, many of the tens of thousands of cultivators present spoke up one after another.
