The Combat Strength of Demon-Suppressing Pass
"Oh?" Kong Wenxuan's eyes lit up slightly upon hearing his nineteenth uncle's introduction, and he asked, "Demon Beast attack? Have you investigated whether there are any traces of the Demon Race behind this?"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Nineteen, Kong Yugui, shook his head slightly and said, "It shouldn't be. We suspected the same thing when these Demon Beast first appeared, so we went deep into the southern mountains to investigate many times, but we didn't find any trace of the Demon Race."
"Later, it was gradually discovered that there were multiple reasons for these Demon Beast attacks."
"Some of the Demon Beast were originally driven out of the thousand-mile territory of Peacock County by our Kong Household when we first established it. These Demon Beast have been attacking us frequently since then, seemingly wanting to return to their homeland."
"Some of the Demon Beast are attracted by the spiritual objects and resources we've mined, or the spiritual spirit medicine and Spirit Plant we've cultivated and grown during the development and management of Peacock County. That's why they launch attacks, trying to invade Peacock County and seize these resources and spirit medicine."
"Another common occurrence is that cultivators from various factions who venture deep into the southern mountains to explore and collect resources and spiritual objects sometimes steal spiritual objects guarded by Demon Beast, or even steal or kill some of the Demon Beast ' companions or children, which in turn attracts the attention of other Demon Beast who chase after them."
"These cultivators will then flee back to ' Demon-Suppressing Pass,' drawing the pursuing Demon Beast there, which will then launch an attack on ' Demon-Suppressing Pass.'"
"In the first year or two, because the mountains near ' Demon-Suppressing Pass ' hadn't been cleared much, they even accumulated many of the Demon Beast our Kong Household had driven out during the process of developing and establishing Peacock County."
"Therefore, there are many attacks by Demon Beast caused by various circumstances, basically once or twice a month."
"In the past year or two, most of the Demon Beast in the nearby mountains have been cleared out, so these attacks have become less frequent, but they still happen every month or two."
"I wonder what caused this Demon Beast attack this time? I hope it wasn't one of those cultivators who came out of seclusion causing trouble again."
As he spoke, Uncle Nineteen, Kong Yugui, led his men toward the city wall of "Demon-Suppressing Pass".
Kong Wenxuan then followed him and hurried towards the city wall.
Although Uncle Nineteen, Kong Yugui, said that "Demon-Suppressing Pass" had experienced such Demon Beast attacks many times before and that they could easily defeat them, there was no need to worry too much.
However, Kong Wenxuan still wanted to go and see.
It wasn't that they were worried about the attacking Demon Beast, that Uncle Nineteen and the others couldn't handle them, nor did they expect this Demon Beast to be any different from others, or that there would be traces of the Demon Race behind it.
After all, although he was somewhat confident in himself, he wouldn't be so arrogant as to think he was the protagonist of the world or the chosen one. His aunt and uncle had dealt with the Demon Beast attacks of the previous years without any problems, so it was unlikely that he would encounter various accidents and problems as soon as he arrived.
The main reason is that he had already read through all the maps, information and other intelligence about the depths of the southern mountains that his aunt, uncle, and others had collected at "Demon-Suppressing Pass" in the past few days.
He already had the idea of leaving "Demon-Suppressing Pass" within the next couple of days and venturing deep into the southern mountains to begin searching for the hidden strongholds of the Demon Race.
Now that he had happened to encounter such Demon Beast attack, he naturally didn't want to miss it, so he went to take a look.
If he could make any discoveries, that would be great. Even if he didn't, he didn't plan to linger at "Demon-Suppressing Pass" any longer. He prepared to bid farewell to his aunt and uncle and head to the depths of the southern mountains to carry out his mission.
Soon, Kong Wenxuan and the others arrived at the city wall of "Demon-Suppressing Pass". At this time, Aunt Kong Yuling had already led more than twenty "Peacock Dao Soldiers" to guard the city wall and confront the Demon Beast attacking from outside the pass.
Kong Wenxuan also saw the demonic Demon Beast that attacked.
It turned out to be a group of gray python Demon Beast, numbering no more than thirty, and of a single species.
This situation was completely different from the "Demon Beast tide" attacks he had witnessed several times, which were controlled and driven by the Demon Race.
He had already come to understand that the attack by these gray python Demon Beast was probably not related to the Demon Race at all.
Moreover, the thirty-odd gray python Demon Beast that attacked were generally only at the First Tier, with only the two leading gray pythons being Second Tier Demon Beast.
With the strength of Aunt Ba, Uncle Shijiu and others, the combat power of the "Peacock Dao Soldiers" stationed here, and the formations and restrictions set up at "Demon-Suppressing Pass", dealing with these attacking gray python Demon Beast is not a problem at all, and can even be said to be very simple.
If the Demon Beast attacks that "Demon-Suppressing Pass" suffered in the past few years were similar to this one, it's no wonder that Uncle Nineteen was confident that he could easily resolve the situation, and he didn't even ask the Lineage for help or report the matter to Lineage.
Kong Wenxuan looked at the attacking gray python Demon Beast, but he didn't even have the thought or idea of using the Second Tier "Lesser Five Elements Sword Formation" to test its strength.
Li! Li li...
At this moment, the more than twenty "Peacock Dao Soldiers" stationed on the city wall, under the command of Aunt Kong Yuling, raised their heads and chirped, and began to fight.
Li! Li li...
At this moment, the more than twenty "Peacock Dao Soldiers" stationed on the city wall, under the command of Aunt Kong Yuling, raised their heads and chirped, and began to fight.
But then they saw a dozen or so "Peacock Feather Sword" of various colors fly up from the city wall, swirling in the air, sometimes Sword Light Differentiation, sometimes surging with sword light, sometimes bursting with sharp sword Sword Qi, surging down and slashing at the gray python Demon Beast that were attacking.
At the same time, a dozen or so "Peacock Feather Slip" of various colors also flew up from the city wall. These were more than a dozen "Peacock Dao Soldiers". These "Peacock Dao Soldiers" were all transformed from Peacock Spirit Bird cultivated by the Lineage in the past three years.
However, the enlightenment of these "Peacock Dao Soldiers" was not carried out by Kong Wenxuan, but by the clan chief Kong Changgeng leading his men.
Therefore, after being enlightened, these "Peacock Dao Soldiers" did not choose the path of the "Peacock Feather Sword," but rather the path of the "Peacock Feather Slip," following the path of Dharma cultivation.
At this moment, as these "Peacock Dao Soldiers" raised their "Peacock Feather Slip" and swept them down in the air, various Law Technique such as water waves, water blades, water arrows, wooden arrows, logs, wooden stakes, thorny vines, golden knives, golden swords, golden light, and golden spears crashed down like a tidal wave, engulfing and killing many of the attacking gray python Demon Beast.
Only the two leading Second Tier gray python Demon Beast, with their bodies radiating gray light and their scales bristling, were able to withstand the attacks of these First Tier "Peacock Dao Soldiers" and continue their assault on "Demon-Suppressing Pass".
But at this time, the people stationed on the city wall of "Demon-Suppressing Pass" were not just twenty-odd "Peacock Dao Soldiers", but also Aunt Kong Yuling, Uncle Kong Yugui, and others.
The Second Tier gray python demon Demon Beast that the "Peacock Dao Soldiers" couldn't handle, naturally they were the ones to deal with.
Li! Li li...
At this moment, a seemingly real yet illusory "Five-Colored Peacock" flying in the sky above "Demon-Suppressing Pass" raised its head and sang a clear song, spreading its wings and displaying a large amount of Five-Colored Illusory Light, which landed on the two Second Tier gray python Demon Beast.
Instantly, the two Second Tier gray python Demon Beast that were charging towards the "Demon-Suppressing Pass" were both trapped in an illusion, stunned on the spot.
Meanwhile, Kong Yuling, the eighth aunt, and Kong Yugui, the nineteenth uncle, on the city wall seized the opportunity to make their moves. One of them summoned the "Yellow Earth Talisman Slips" and the "White Metal Talisman Slip," unleashing a barrage of earth and metal Spirit Technique; the other summoned the "Yellow Earth Divine Sword" and the "Black Water Divine Sword," which transformed into sword peaks and sword rivers that crashed down simultaneously, each attacking a Second Tier gray python Demon Beast.
Instantly, the two Second Tier gray python Demon Beast, who were trapped in the illusion, were blasted to death on the spot.
The farcical attack by a Demon Beast was easily resolved by the Kong Household's troops stationed at "Demon-Suppressing Pass," without posing any threat or causing any damage.
It couldn't even activate the protective array of "Demon-Suppressing Pass" or the "Boundary Stele Barrier" of "Early Boundary Stele".
Kong Wenxuan was relieved to see this, realizing that his aunt, uncle, and others were fully capable of protecting the safety of "Demon-Suppressing Pass" and safeguarding the border of "Peacock County".
He didn't linger there long. After saying goodbye to his aunt, uncle, and others, he left "Demon-Suppressing Pass" and headed south into the depths of the mountains.
