Mountains Shaken, Earth Cracked! (Thanks to "Wangfeng Puying" for the verification!)

Eagle Cry Gorge.

As Liu Jing finished speaking, hundreds of law enforcement officers quickly adjusted their posture and stood ready in their positions.

The Third-Tier enforcers at the forefront had grim expressions. With a flick of their wrists, they gripped their Treasured Artifacts tightly, their true energy emanating from their bodies.

Liu Jing's position among them, relative to the others, was quite deliberate, subtly revealing a mysterious meaning.

It is clear that a battle formation has been formed.

The Second-Tier enforcers followed behind them, ready to replace their exhausted comrades in battle.

The remaining Tier 1 enforcers stood on higher ground at the rear, armed with firearms, their eyes filled with the threat of a formidable enemy.

Without a sound, Eagle Cry Gorge, Sorrowful Cloud Valley... and even the entire Dangtian Mountain.

At this moment, everyone was enveloped by an almost tangible sense of Killing Intent!

Under countless tense and solemn gazes.

The Beast Tide on the mountaintop were rapidly spreading down the mountain.

The number of Mutant Beast is outrageously high.

The massive, densely packed figures almost filled the entire Dangtian Mountain.

They were already enormous and terrifying in appearance.

Now, with thousands of Mutant Beast gathered together, even though most of them are of low rank, their presence is still terrifying!

Among them, there were hundreds or even thousands rushing towards Eagle Cry Gorge.

It is foreseeable that a fierce battle is about to unfold here.

Inside the temporary camp.

Wu Jie staggered out of the tent, looking up at the surging Beast Tide coming from the mountaintop, her face pale.

She was already seriously injured, and because of the blockade, no one could leave the Dangtian Mountain area.

If this place is breached by the Beast Tide, then my fate will be...

Thinking about this, Wu Jie couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine.

At that moment, a figure stood up on the bluestone not far away.

She instinctively turned her head to look, just as a strong Gale Force blew towards her.

Alas!!--

The howling, violent mountain wind came from above, sweeping across the vast Dangtian Mountain region, passing through layers of giant trees, and riding on the soaring blood-red energy to rise into the dark, cloud-covered sky.

A figure in a blue robe leaped off the blue stone amidst the howling wind, his handsome face, adorned with a slight smile, showing no trace of fear.

"..."

For a moment, Wu Jie was in a daze.

Eagle Cry Gorge, the blockade line.

The black tide surging from the mountaintop continued to approach, its dense pounding causing the Dangtian Mountain to shake violently.

The sheer scale of the attack was terrifying.

The hearts of the hundreds of law enforcement officers gradually quickened, and a cold sweat broke out on their backs.

Liu Jing, who was at the center of the battle, clenched his fists tightly, his face slightly numb.

He saw the figures of the purple-robed cultists in the surging Beast Tide, which meant that the defense line of Eagle Cry Gorge would have to withstand the impact of Fourth-Tier Martial Artist again.

But it's okay.

This time the situation is different from last time; the roles of offense and defense have reversed!

Currently, there is Fourth-Tier Peak martial artist guarding Eagle Cry Gorge!

If the battle formation can withstand the first few waves of the Beast Tide, then Ye Li can be asked to carry out the decapitation operation.

If the decapitation is successful, all that's left is a simple tug-of-war. If we can drag it out until that Senior Zuo is free, then we've won...

Thinking of this, Liu Jing felt a surge of excitement.

Just as he was about to say something to boost morale, a figure stepped out from beside him, drawing everyone's attention.

The young man, his black hair fluttering, walked straight to the front of the battle formation, a chilling aura slowly emanating from his body.

Ye Li stood in front of the crowd, hands in his pockets, his expression calm.

The meaning is self-evident.

He was to face the Beast Tide here.

This scene left everyone behind them somewhat stunned.

"Your Excellency, the first wave of the Beast Tide was the most powerful!"

In the midst of battle, Liu Jing, regaining his senses, was initially taken aback, then spoke in a warning tone, his voice deep and serious:

"Trouble retreat to your battle formation and wait for us to withstand the first wave of attack before you take action!"

The dark Beast Tide was less than two kilometers away from this place.

In some remote camps, fighting may have already begun.

In such a critical moment, even if the opponent is a peerless genius at the Fourth-Tier Peak, one cannot act recklessly, otherwise one could easily lose one's life!

The Fourth-Tier Martial Artist were worn down and killed by low-tier Beast Tide is not small in combat records!

Moreover, if he performed too brilliantly, Liu Jing had heard terrifying rumors of assassinations by various countries around the world.

Both morally and logically, this wave should restrain its aggressiveness and use a safe and practical approach to resist the Beast Tide.

Liu Jing stared intently at the Green-Shirted Youth ahead. "How is it?"

I just hope the other side will realize something is wrong quickly and retreat to the rear of the battle lines.

However, the boy seemed not to have heard at all.

"Step back, I'll take over the battlefield."

Ye Li's voice was calm, yet it carried an undeniable air of authority.

Then, without waiting for Liu Jing to speak, he began to stride towards the Beast Tide ahead.

It started as a slow stroll, but then it suddenly started running!

"Your Mightiness..."

Liu Jing looked stunned, then suddenly came to his senses and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:

"The Beast Tide is no small matter. You are exceptionally talented, so please follow my instructions and proceed step by step!"

Even if you manage to survive the Beast Tide, remember the saying, "The tallest tree in the forest catches the most wind."

But as soon as he finished speaking...

The slender figure's speed actually increased instead of decreasing, like a blue bullet fired at lightning speed!

Ye Li's dark eyes were bright and his spirits were high, his blue robe fluttering in the wind!

As the distance closed, his aura grew stronger.

A powerful aura, belonging to the Fourth-Tier Peak, erupted from his body, strikingly like a raging flame dancing in a gale, or a lighthouse that never goes out in a storm.

Such a brazen and arrogant attitude silenced the hundreds of law enforcement officers behind him.

In the crowd, Chen Jingli stared at that figure without moving.

Call!--

The whistling wind swept past Ye Li's ears as he drew closer to the Beast Tide. He could no longer hear the earnest admonitions behind him!

A dazzling blue light surged forth, and beautiful ice flowers continuously condensed in the air.

A powerful chill emanated from his body, and a phantom Ice Azure Dragon rapidly materialized beside him at an unbelievable speed!

"..."

The purple-robed cultist in the Beast Tide immediately changed his expression, sensing an extremely terrifying energy brewing within the ice dragon.

Whoosh!

Amidst hundreds of gazes, Ye Li's figure soared into the air.

Take it one step at a time, and remember, the tallest tree in the forest is bound to be felled by the wind...

To hell with them all!

"I will shake the world! Let's see what kind of storm can break me!"

The boy raised one hand and laughed loudly.

At this moment, those bright black eyes reflected the surging Beast Tide, the purple-robed cultist whose face was contorting wildly, and the colossal building atop the distant mountain.

The power within my body is overflowing and surging!

"Call--"

Ye Li let out a silent breath, and the air around him became even more turbulent.

This was the first time he had used his full strength since reaching the peak of the Heavenly Gate Realm!

The perfected Ice Dragon True Intent finally revealed its true power as Fifth Tier Premium Martial Skill.

Boom!

At that moment, the water vapor within a radius of dozens of miles trembled, and towering columns of water rose from the lakes on Dangtian Mountain, converging towards his palm.

The numerous law enforcement officers in the camp stared intently at the figure, their emotions finally turning into shock.

Suddenly, an Ice Azure Dragon, nearly a hundred feet long, appeared out of thin air. Its body was enormous, as majestic and magnificent as an iceberg. Its scales shimmered with a cold light. Its huge body coiled up, blotting out the sky and bringing endless pressure and cold.

The powerful aura emanating from it was breathtaking, and the majesty and domineering presence in its dragon eyes were awe-inspiring, as if it were the ruler of this world, and no one dared to challenge its authority.

At this moment, the dragon head roared to the sky, letting the spirited Green-Shirted Youth trample on it!

In an instant, a loud dragon roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth, carrying immense majesty and power, shaking the entire Dangtian Mountain!

This young man, destined to make a name for himself in the world, has finally revealed his brilliance under the spotlight!

"I feel so Pure Qi..."

Above the ice dragon, Ye Li's lips curled slightly, his eyes looking down arrogantly at everything below.

I've gone to all that trouble to unleash a powerful attack, so I'm definitely going to make sure it deals maximum damage.

Then, the boy waved his hand casually.

Immediately afterwards, the majestic Ice Azure Dragon suddenly shot out.

Its towering form instantly shattered sound barriers, plunging towards the center of the black tide with an extremely terrifying and awe-inspiring force!

The threat of death loomed over them like a mountain pressing down.

Amidst the Beast Tide, the purple-robed cultist stood frozen, his eyes filled with despair.

He suddenly realized that his Beast God Cult's Saintess, who had just finalized her plan and was brimming with confidence, might be doomed today.

The next second, the Frost Dragon arrived swiftly and precisely.

The moment the Frost Dragon's head made contact with the dark Beast Tide --

Boom!!!

A sudden, intensely cold storm swept across the land!

Amidst the blinding, brilliant blue light, a terrifying shockwave shook the mountains and cracked the earth, the air rippling like a vast ocean!

The deafening roar instantly reverberated throughout the entire Dangtian Mountain region.

Inside Dangtian Mountain, countless people looked up at the blue pillar of light shooting into the sky, their expressions instantly becoming quite interesting.

Above the Beast God Cult branch, a girl dressed in green was manipulating a tornado to suppress two enormous Mutant Beast, each tens of meters tall.

He suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of Eagle Cry Gorge, his brows furrowing slightly.

The sheer force of their attack is astonishing; whose Fifth Tier martial artist is this?

Inside Eagle Cry Gorge.

A sharp, strong wind swept in all directions, brightening countless blank faces.

As the storm gradually subsided.

Amidst the chaotic ruins, the figure of Green-Shirted Youth emerged, his body stained only with a few drops of blood on the hem of his clothes.

"..."

Liu Jing was breathing heavily, his eyes fixed on everything before him, his gaze filled with unprecedented shock.

He opened his mouth wide, touched his face, and then subconsciously looked around.

The other law enforcement officers were all dumbfounded, as if they couldn't comprehend the situation before them. They could only stand there, frozen in place like statues.

My mood improved slightly after that.

It wasn't that I adapted to the shock Ye Li brought so quickly, but I did feel somewhat relieved.

Faced with this type of monstrous being, my previous worries did seem somewhat like meddling in other people's business.

The Beast Tide in Eagle Cry Gorge was dealt with so easily... Liu Jing clicked his tongue.

Looking at Ye Li, who was standing in the ruins, calming his breathing.

He took a step forward, his legs feeling a little numb, and walked towards the other person.

He forced a smile, but his voice was hoarse. "Director Ye, you really are..."

The words abruptly stopped.

Ye Li looked around, the black in his pupils growing even deeper, his clear, calm voice echoing throughout the mountains:

"Stand up!"

"Stand up!!" It was as if another voice came from the mountains, deep and majestic, completely unlike a boy's voice.

In fact, no living person could hear the second voice, but the undead on the ground responded eagerly, as if answering a king's call.

Hundreds of Mutant Beast corpses vanished from the earth, only to gradually reappear in the vast basin before the boy, a magnificent and awe-inspiring sight.

Looking at this unbelievable scene.

Liu Jing stopped in his tracks, his emotions, which had calmed down a little, were once again thrown into turmoil.

What the hell is going on now?!

As he was lost in thought, a beautiful figure walked past him, almost identical to Ye Li from before.

It was Chen Jingli.

Liu Jing's lips twitched slightly. Why do all these Martial Arts University geniuses like to do things like this?

It makes it seem like he has very little vigilance.

Chen Jingli moved her feet lightly, finally stopping behind Ye Li.

Her gaze swept over the vast horde of Mutant Beast, and she parted her thin lips slightly, asking calmly:

"Do you need help?"

"No need," Ye Li shook his head slightly.

As he spoke, Liu Jing walked over, glanced at the thousands of Mutant Beasts that sent chills down his spine, and his eyes twitched violently.

He cupped his hands in a respectful gesture and asked Ye Li:

"Director Ye, the mission to guard Eagle Cry Gorge is basically over. Where do you plan to go next?"

He carefully observed Ye Li's expression, and sighed inwardly.

Even after employing a series of miraculous methods, there was still no sign of exhaustion.

This is really...

"..."

Ye Li turned his head to look at the mountaintop, still shrouded in storm, and calmly said:

"I plan to go up the mountain to take a look."

Converting the souls of the dead into his own power didn't consume much of his true energy.

However, that single, exceptionally powerful [Ice Dragon True Intent] consumed a tremendous amount of energy.

At this moment, nearly 70% of the true energy in his body had been consumed.

Although he wasn't in great shape, taking in so many thugs was clearly not for nothing.

An army of thousands of Mutant Beasts would likely be extremely effective against an opponent who lacks similar large-scale combat techniques.

It's time for a counterattack.

"Up the mountain?"

Liu Jing paused, then carefully said, "But it seems that Senior Zuo hasn't finished his battle yet, and the Saintess of the Beast God Cult hasn't shown up either..."

"It's alright, you can just stay here and keep watch."

Ye Li raised his hand and casually put away the conspicuous Mutant Beast army, then turned and walked up the mountain.

His calm voice carried on the wind to everyone's ears:

"I'll search that branch and see if I can catch that Saintess."

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions immediately became quite interesting.

PS: Combining the two into one 4,000-word piece was quite a challenge to type.
