Read Chapter 83 now Demonic Beast Tide:, to start today's excitement.
During this period of recuperation, Li Yuan was mainly practicing Micro-Origin Meridian Guiding Art.
Under the ribs, on the waist, and deep inside the shoulder blades, grind them open one by one.
Some of the thin veins are extremely short, and Spirit Silk opens as soon as it is touched, as if there is only the last layer of window paper missing.
Some are hidden deep at the junction of bone seams and fascia, and require repeated grinding to open a small gap.
After a few hours, Li Yuan opened up more than a dozen small veins.
Each one individually seems insignificant, and when combined into the whole Spirit Power Circuit, the difference is almost unnoticeable. But when a dozen or so are added together, the spiritual power feedback of Hundred Meridians Origin Return Art when it is running is a little bit more - not faster, but denser, like water seeping into more capillary ravines.
[Micro-Origin Meridian Guiding Art: Proficiency(156/400)]
Li Yuan slowly withdraws his power and exhales a breath of turbid air.
There are still many unconnected micro meridians, but the difficulty continues to decrease.
After practicing for a while, Li Yuan opened his eyes, stood up and stretched his muscles.
Several teams of people were scattered everywhere behind the low hill. The few Rogue Cultivator who had been rescued earlier were placed in the corner of Station, resting against the stone wall.
Li Yuan took a few steps towards the center of Station and glanced around.
Uncle Qu is not here.
The high stone where Uncle Qu used to stand before was empty, and there was no figure beside him. Only two of the three Wang Family monks were standing by the earthen wall on the north side of Station, talking in low voices.
Li Yuan walked to Song Tiezhu, who was squatting on the ground wiping the magic weapon.
"Where is Uncle Qu?"
Song Tiezhu didn't even raise his head.
"It seems that he took a Wang Family monk away and headed south."
"Did you say anything?"
"I didn't say anything." Song Tiezhu put Law Artifact away. "I asked the people in the second team next to me, and they didn't know. They just knew that something happened."
Han Xiaoyi came over from behind, chewing half of a stick of dried meat in his mouth, and answered vaguely.
"The captain of the first team also asked the two Wang Family monks, and the answer he got was two words - something happened."
Li Yuan didn't ask any more questions and turned back to his seat.
The night is getting darker.
Li Yuan ran Hundred Meridians Origin Return Art for two more weeks, and when I was about to switch back to Spirit Guiding Art, I suddenly felt something.
A wave of spiritual energy surged in from the southwest.
Not a lump, but a piece.
A large number of spiritual energy fluctuations appeared at the edge of perception almost at the same time, turbid and scattered, like muddy water.
And it's still approaching quickly.
Li Yuan stood up and shouted to the monk on duty, "There is more than one end in the southwest."
The monks on night duty also noticed the abnormality almost at the same time, and one of them's Spirit Detection Disk lit up.
"Several - no, a dozen!"
Station suddenly heard a rustling sound.
The monks who were resting woke up one after another, and the sounds of touching Law Artifact and weapons came one after another. A few who reacted quickly had already stood behind the earthen wall.
Two Wang Family monks also appeared on the north side of Station at the same time.
One of them's face darkened, he put his finger on Spirit Detection Disk, closed his eyes for a few breaths, and then suddenly opened his eyes.
"They're all Low-grade First-Order -- a lot of them, and they're still increasing."
Another Wang Family monk glanced at the surrounding terrain and spoke in a deep voice.
"Uncle Qu is not here, everyone listens to my command."
He raised his hand and pointed toward the north.
"The terrain here is too low to defend. All teams should gather together and retreat to the high slope to the north."
Li Yuan has no objection.
The Station behind the low hill is low on three sides, and there is only a higher Stone Slope on the north side, which retreats to the slope and dominates the sky.
Each team quickly gathered its manpower and retreated to the north in the direction of Stone Slope.
Ma Yuan Several Rogue Cultivator were pushed to the front and ran north with the large group. The one with an injured right arm could not run fast and was dragged by the people next to him.
Li Yuan followed with Fourth Team.
The first Demon Beast appeared in the gap on the southwest side of the low hill.
It's a Grey Iguana, not big, Low-grade First-Order.
But it doesn't look right.
The normal Grey Iguana is timid and agile in its movements. This one is different - it digs the ground on all fours, its mouth is wide open, and its vertical pupils are full of red threads. It seems that it was driven crazy by something. The route it rushed up was crooked, and it couldn't even avoid obstacles. It hit a rock and bounced before continuing to rush forward.
Li Yuan raised his hand and hit Fire Arrow, and the line of fire went straight through Grey Iguana's head.
The lizard's whole body slid forward and lay motionless on the gravel.
But the ones behind have already come up.
Two heads, three heads, five heads - Grey Iguana, Horned Lizard, Grey Hyena Rat, Demon Beast of different sizes came out from the gap in the low hill one after another. They were all Low-grade First-Order, and one head alone was not enough to see.
The problem is quantity.
And the status of each head is abnormal.
A Grey Hyena Rat was shot through its hind legs by Fire Arrow. It should have screamed and ran back, but it didn't even hiss. It dragged one broken leg on three legs and continued to crawl forward, making a low grunting sound from its mouth.
On the other side, Horned Lizard was split open in half by Song Tiezhu. His internal organs were spilled out, but his limbs were still kicking around and his mouth was opening and closing to bite the person's legs.
Li Yuan walked at the back, Fire Arrow Technique and Fireball Technique fired alternately. Every shot was accurate, Precision Affix pressed there, and it almost didn't miss within fifteen feet.
Fire Arrow shoots out line by line, specifically hitting the head and neck. Low-grade First-Order and Demon Beast cannot withstand such blows, and most of them are killed in one shot.
But knock down one end, and Demon Beast will come up behind it.
Farther away in the darkness, Demon Beast roared one after another, with no end in sight.
A scream came from the left.
Li Yuan turned his head and saw that a monk from the third team was thrown to the ground by three Grey Iguana. Those lizards, completely ignoring their own safety, were Cola Novels reading Chapter 83 Demonic Beast Tide, immersed in it and unable to extricate themselves. One of the lizards bit his calf, and the other pounced on his chest and scratched randomly.
The teammates next to him hurried forward and chopped off the lizard with swords and swords, but the monk's calf had been bitten to a bloody pulp.
"Get on the rack!" the captain of that team shouted hoarsely.
Further back, another team was also in trouble.
A Horned Lizard came from the side, bypassed the front row of defenses, and rushed directly into the rear. Zhao An had no time to react, and was pushed on the thigh by the corner of Horned Lizard's head.
Zhao An groaned, leaned back, and fell on the gravel. Horned Lizard's horn pierced the outside of his thigh, and blood immediately poured out.
Tian Qi stabbed Horned Lizard's neck with a backhand spear, nailing it to the ground.
"Zhao An!" Xu Qing ran over.
Zhao An's face turned pale, his hands were tightly covering his thighs, blood seeping out from between his fingers.
"Can you walk?" Li Yuan glanced back while fighting.
"I can walk." Zhao An gritted his teeth, stood up with the help of Xu Qing, and limped forward.
Li Yuan turned around, pressed his palm Fireball into shape, and smashed it towards the densest group of Demon Beast in the front.
Boom.
Red flames exploded on the gravel ground, and Grey Iguana, three or four people huddled together, were overturned, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere.
There was another explosion in the distance, and several Demon Beast were blown away. It was a spell cast by one of the Wang Family monks.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Yuan urged Fire Escape Technique, with a flash of fire under his feet, and he ran back four or five feet.
"We're almost there, we're almost on the slope!" Han Xiaoyi's voice came from the front.
The first few teams have climbed to the top of the slope and are casting spells at Demon Beast down the slope. Sporadic Ice Arrow, Wind Blade and Earth Spike are shooting down from the slope.
Li Yuan led Fourth Team back to the foot of the slope.
"Uphill!"
Tian Qi went first, carrying Zhao An to climb up. Xu Qing pushed behind, followed by Li Yuan and several others.
Seven or eight more Demon Beast came from behind.
Before Li Yuan could take action, the spells on the slope fell down. Dozens of Ice Arrow mixed with other spells were shot into the Demon Beast group, killing the first few.
Li Yuan Climb to the top of the slope and stand still.
He turned back and glanced down the slope.
Demonic Beast Tide in the direction of the short hill did not catch up.
Demon Beast of Low-grade First-Order has a small body and short legs. Although Stone Slope is not high, the angle is steep enough for them. Several Grey Iguana tried to climb up, climbed two steps and then slipped down. After screaming a few times, they began to circle at the foot of the slope.
More Demon Beast flocked to the low places around Station, climbed into the earth walls, and chewed on the debris left on the ground and the Demon Beast corpses that had not been taken away in time.
There are also a small number of Demon Beast who are biting each other without any rules.
Two Wang Family monks stood at the highest point of the slope, scanning the situation down the slope with a solemn face.
"I won't catch up anymore," one of them said.
The other one hummed and looked away from the messy Demon Beasts down the slope.
"Count the number of people on the spot, and all captains will report casualties."
Each team begins counting.
Sounds came from all over the top of the slope, intermittently.
"The first team is missing one person. It was thrown away during the retreat. It is not sure whether it can come back. One person is slightly injured."
"In the second team, two were injured, one was bitten through the palm and one had a broken rib."
"In the third team, one was seriously injured. His calf was bitten and he couldn't walk. Two were slightly injured."
Li Yuan looked back at his people.
Song Tiezhu is fine, Han Xiaoyi has a shallow cut on his left arm, and the blood has dried. Tian Qi and Xu Qing are both intact.
Zhao An sat on the ground, while Xu Qing squatted next to him and applied medicinal powder to the wound on his thigh. The wound was not too deep, and Horned Lizard's horn thorns penetrated the muscle but did not reach the bone. After the bleeding was stopped, it should be fine, but he would not be able to run fast in a short time.
"Fourth Team, one is injured and can leave." Li Yuan called to monk Wang Family.
After each team reported, the total casualties were less than expected.
Station was lost, and part of the supplies were lost, but the people were basically evacuated. Only the first team was missing one person. I don't know if they fell behind or something else happened.
Several Rogue Cultivator were also brought up. Ma Yuan and the others huddled behind a big rock on the top of the slope, their faces ashen and they didn't say a word.
Wang Family monk glanced at everyone.
"Continue to evacuate to the north and put some distance away from Loose Cultivator Market. Find a place on higher ground to rest and wait for Uncle Qu to come back."
The roar of Demon Beast down the slope continued, but it was already far away.
The team moved northward along the top of the slope, not walking fast, and the gravel rustled under their feet.
After walking about two miles, the terrain became higher again.
Ahead is a protruding Rock Terrace, with nearly vertical stone walls on three sides. Only the south side has a narrow and gentle slope that can be climbed up and down. The Rock Terrace is not large, and it is just enough if it is packed with people. However, the terrain is excellent. Except for the road to the south, it is impossible to climb up Demon Beast from other directions.
"It's right here." Brother Wang Family pointed at Rock Terrace.
People came to Rock Terrace one after another.
The wounded were placed in a position near the inside, and several monks who knew some healing methods went over to treat the wounds. The calf of the third team member was the most severely bitten, and two people pressed his leg and used spiritual power to stop the bleeding. The monk bit a piece of wood, with blue veins popping out on his forehead, and remained silent.
Li Yuan found a place to sit on the edge of Rock Terrace.
Scattered Demon Beast roars came from the distant direction, much weaker than before.
Han Xiaoyi squatted beside him, raised his hand and touched the wound on his left arm, and hissed.
"Those Demon Beasts are out of their minds." He muttered.
Song Tiezhu answered in a dull voice.
"Something's wrong. I've been a guard for so many years, and I've never seen a half-cut Demon Beast still biting someone. The normal Demon Beast would have run away long ago."
Li Yuan didn't answer and looked around.
The chatter on Rock Terrace gradually became quieter, the night watchers were arranged to go out, and the rest found a place to rest.
The roaring in the distance was intermittent, as if it was slowly dissipating.
