Encountering a Beast Tide
Boom boom boom!
Rumble, rumble...
The earth trembled, and a deep rumble came from the depths of the mountains, like the heartbeat of an ancient behemoth.
Hua Qiang and his men stopped and looked around warily.
The Rat King and the White Dragon Horse hurriedly protected Hua Xiaoyao and Hua Sijun, who were riding on two tigers, standing guard with a sinister glint in their eyes.
Roar!
From afar came the roars of beasts, and then the entire mountain range seemed to come alive.
The first to appear were a pack of level one or two Wind Wolves, their gray-black fur rustling in the wind, their sharp fangs gleaming coldly.
They spread out in a fan shape, their emerald green eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty light, and their throats emitting low roars, as if announcing the approach of death to their prey.
Following the Wind Wolf is the massive Level 3 Unicorn Rock Rhino.
These colossal beasts, each as tall as two people, were covered in scales as hard as iron, and their massive horns gleamed coldly on their foreheads.
They marched with heavy steps, each step causing the ground to tremble, smashing bushes to pieces and raising clouds of dust in their wake.
In the sky, sharp bird cries pierced the air.
A group of level two and three, including some level four Thunder Eagle, pressed in like a dark cloud. Their wingspans were several meters long, and their feathers gleamed with a metallic sheen.
Each time it flaps its wings, wisps of electricity flash in the air. Its sharp claws are like steel hooks; if caught, one would be torn to shreds in an instant.
The most terrifying thing is the Level 5 demonic beast mixed in with the beast tide.
A Crimson Flame Tiger, its body engulfed in crimson flames, was surrounded by a herd of beasts.
With each step the Crimson Flame Tiger took, the ground beneath its feet would burst into flames, and scorching waves of heat would sweep around.
And then there was the Ice Flood Dragon, its entire body a deep blue, its serpentine form hovering above the ground, its breath exhaling icy air instantly freezing the vegetation.
The monsters surged in like a tidal wave, their sheer number inspiring despair.
They pushed and shoved each other, roaring as if they wanted to devour everything in front of them.
The air was thick with the stench of blood and the distinctive odor of animals, making one want to vomit.
Hua Qiang also gasped in shock, and then put his son and daughter into the Small World.
Faced with such a massive beast tide, they dared not let their two precious children wander outside. If a fight broke out and the two little ones were accidentally injured, it would break their hearts.
Immediately, he drew a circle in the air with each of his hands, creating two dark vortexes.
As soon as he thought of it, Asura and Evil Ghost appeared one after another from the vortex, and soon two squads appeared, looking majestic and imposing.
"Asura and Hungry Ghosts, it's time for you to eat! Destroy them!"
The Evil Ghost and Asura bowed to Hua Qiang and said in unison, "We obey our master's orders!"
With a whoosh, they charged towards the herd of beasts.
Nalan Yan stared wide-eyed at the scene before her.
Originally, it was thought that the two were about to have a bloody battle, but unexpectedly, Hua Qiang had such a magical backup plan.
Watching the two densely packed groups rushing towards the beasts, she felt like a spectator, except she was missing her sunflower seeds, peanuts, and bottled water.
"Honey, let's start picking up bargains!"
Hua Qiang drew his Thunderclap Blade and charged towards the horde of beasts, which included Level 5 Crimson Flame Tiger and Ice Flood Dragon.
Not to be outdone, Nalan Yan followed closely behind, wielding Longsword.
The earth trembled violently as the Asura charged and crashed about, wielding enormous battle axes. Their dark red skin gleamed with a metallic sheen, and their third vertical pupil on their foreheads emitted a captivating red light.
Immediately following them was a dense army of Evil Ghost that swarmed out. They were of various shapes and sizes, some ferocious and terrifying, others incomplete, emitting piercing screams as they surged toward the beast herd like a tide.
The 100,000 beasts were not to be outdone. The Wind Wolf howled to the sky, their bodies wreathed in cyan wind blades, and charged toward the Evil Ghost like arrows released from a bow.
The Unicorn Rock Rhino has a hard, single horn at its base, and its massive body has carved deep furrows into the ground, carrying with it pebbles and dust, making it look like a moving mountain.
The Giant Ape pounded their chests, letting out deafening roars, and swung their thick arms to smash huge boulders at the Evil Ghost.
The wild boars, their tusks gleaming, charged and rampaged, raising clouds of dust wherever they went.
In the sky, the Thunder Eagle spread its wings, which blotted out the sun, and its sharp claws gleamed with eerie blue lightning.
The snakes writhed rapidly, flicking their tongues, waiting for an opportunity to attack.
The Asura swung their battle axes, unleashing waves of crimson energy that instantly cleaved Wind Wolf in two, their blood raining down.
The Evil Ghost pounced on the herd of beasts. Some bit the neck of the Wind Wolf, while others entangled the limbs of the rock rhinoceros. Claws and fangs tore at each other, and screams of agony rose and fell.
The Giant Ape grabbed the Evil Ghost, swung it violently, and slammed it to the ground. But then even more Evil Ghost pounced on it, engulfing the Giant Ape.
The Thunder Eagle swooped down from the sky, its claws reaching for Asura, spewing out dazzling lightning from its mouth.
Asura's vertical pupils shone brightly as he met the attack with his battle axe. The lightning collided with the battle axe, unleashing a powerful shockwave that sent the surrounding beasts and Evil Ghost flying.
Taking advantage of the situation, the snakes coiled around Asura's legs, attempting to trip him. Asura roared in anger, his arm muscles bulged, and he tore the snakes apart, splattering blood everywhere.
The wild boars charged back and forth among the beasts, but were bound by chains by the Evil Ghost, dragged to the ground, and instantly torn to pieces.
The Wind Wolf formed a battle formation, constantly shooting out wind blades that sliced the approaching Evil Ghost into pieces. The army of Evil Ghost was endless, with one wave falling only to be replaced by another.
In the air, the battle between the Thunder Eagle and the Asura Dragon intensified. The Thunder Eagle bombarded the Asura Dragon with lightning, while the Asura Dragon retaliated with its battle axe.
On the ground, the beasts and the army of Evil Ghost fought each other, blood soaked the earth, and severed limbs were scattered everywhere.
Hua Qiang was enveloped in scarlet mist, moving like a ghost among the chaotic beast hordes, Asura, and Evil Ghost.
Whenever a demonic beast tried to stop him, his Thunderclap Saber would draw a dazzling arc of light.
Wherever the blade passed, the scales and flesh of the demonic beasts were easily torn apart like paper, and warm blood splattered on his cold and handsome face, but it did not diminish his fierce aura in the slightest.
Hua Qiang's eyes swept across the battlefield like a hawk's, and then locked onto a target.
In the distance, two Crimson Flame Tiger stood majestically on a charred boulder, their bodies engulfed in crimson flames, and the tiger king markings on their foreheads shimmering with an eerie red light.
Two Level 5 beast kings.
Hua Qiang's eyes gleamed, and he suddenly exerted force with his feet, his figure turning into a black streak of light, instantly covering a distance of a hundred meters, pouncing on the Crimson Flame Tiger.
Sensing the threat, the two Crimson Flame Tiger roared simultaneously, spewing out two blazing pillars of flame that swept towards them like two fire dragons.
Hua Qiang remained calm and composed. Thunderclap Saber danced, his body erupting with lightning that collided with the flames, unleashing a deafening roar. Scorching air currents and blinding lightning scattered in all directions.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, a Crimson Flame Tiger pounced on Hua Qiang, its sharp claws like steel hooks.
Hua Qiang dodged to the side, and his sword swept across, but was deflected by the flames on the Crimson Flame Tiger's body.
Another Crimson Flame Tiger attacked from the side, condensing a huge fireball in its mouth.
Hua Qiang touched the ground with his toes and leaped into the air. Thunderous Thunderclap Saber shot up from below his fingertips, and lightning surged along his body.
Seeing this, the two Crimson Flame Tiger joined forces, their flames weaving a huge net of fire in an attempt to trap Hua Qiang.
Hua Qiang shouted, Thunderclap Saber. The lightning, like Flood Dragon emerging from the sea, fiercely struck the fire net.
Lightning and flames collided violently, shattering the fire net into pieces.
Hua Qiang seized the opportunity, and with a flash of light, lunged at the neck of the Crimson Flame Tiger.
A Crimson Flame Tiger was unable to dodge in time and had its head severed by Thunderclap Saber.
Another Crimson Flame Tiger roared and pounced, but Hua Qiang swung his sword backhand, the blade piercing through its chest.
Lightning surged through the wound, shredding the Crimson Flame Tiger's internal organs to pieces.
With two angry roars of resentment, the two Crimson Flame Tiger crashed to the ground.
