Looking at Gu Qingxi's cold yet beautiful young face, everyone secretly sighed and felt ashamed.
Finally, under their admiring gazes, Gu Qingxi and his party arrived at the city gate.
At this time, Gu Qingxi looked haggard, and her arms and sleeves were soaked with blood.
Xiao Fangqing and others were not much better, spitting out a mouthful of blood from time to time, dyeing their chests and skirts red.
Everyone can see that these young people have reached their limit and may not be able to hold on for a moment longer.
"Quickly, stop them, stop them!" City Lord Gu Hongyao pointed at the Sky-Splitting Thunder Beasts still surrounding them and shouted.
Without his instructions, the monks around him had already raised their swords and drawn their long bows.
This time, they had a tacit understanding and locked onto the circle of monsters closest to Gu Qingxi and others.
Hundreds of sword rays and nearly a thousand arrows filled with spiritual power roared down, exploding into clouds of blood mist.
After a hard fight, Gu Qingxi and others were in a miserable state, but most of these sky-splitting thunder beasts were seriously injured, and nearly a hundred of them fell to the ground forever.
Gu Qingxi and others finally got a chance to breathe, and each took out the healing elixir and drank it.
"Open the city gate, open the city gate quickly." At this time, a young man from the city wall shouted excitedly and anxiously.
This was the first time since the monsters attacked the city that they had achieved such great results, so he was a little too excited.
Fortunately, Gu Qingxi hadn't entered the city yet, otherwise she would have kicked him off the city wall after hearing this.
Opening the city gate at this time, they can enter the city, but what about the monsters following behind? Who can stop them?
Fortunately, Gu Hongyao was not as dizzy as he was. He took out a few tokens and threw them down the city wall, shouting: "Fellow Taoists, this is an order from the Lord of this city. It is not subject to the forbidden air formation. Please take it. "
Gu Qingxi and others took the token and immediately used their flying swords to fly towards the city.
"Old Moyun City Lord Gu Hongyao, thank you fellow Taoists for your help. May I ask what you call them?" As soon as they flew to the top of the city, the ancient city lord quickly stepped forward and said gratefully.
"Let's defend the city with all our strength first, and we'll talk about the rest later." Gu Qingxi didn't have time to chat with him, so she said concisely and clearly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the angry and unwilling roars of the beasts could be heard from under the city wall.
High-level monsters not only have intelligence that is not weaker than humans, but most of them also have stronger self-esteem and pride than humans. This is especially true for beasts like the Sky-Splitting Thunder Beast, which has the blood of the dragon clan flowing through it.
The entire tribe chased and intercepted them, but failed to stop a few human monks whose cultivation was only in the realm of transcending tribulation. Instead, they massacred hundreds of their fellow tribesmen along the way. What a shame this is for the Sky-Splitting Thunder Beast!
Led by three twelfth-level monsters, the beasts roared towards Moyun City.
Watching Gu Qingxi and his entourage fly into Moyun City, their pride derived from the dragon clan and the bloodthirsty killing intent unique to the ferocious beasts erupted like a volcano.
Their eyes were burning with flames, and they no longer had any sense at all.
Previously, they knew how to dodge when faced with the sword light and the arrows scattered on the city wall, and they knew how to retreat temporarily when injured.
But now, despite the swords striking their bodies mercilessly and the arrows piercing their bodies, they did not flinch, as if they could no longer feel any pain.
Seeing this scene, the faces of the ancient city lord and others changed dramatically, and a bone-deep chill surged through their bodies.
The reason why they are able to hold on until now is partly because they work together to fight to the death, but on the other hand, it also has a lot to do with the fact that the Sky-Splitting Thunder Beast is too intelligent and does not want to fight them to the point of losing both sides.
But at this time, the beast herd has obviously fallen into madness, and they are no longer afraid of death. Why are they afraid of losing both sides?
Gu Qingxi had already expected this. She had not let the spiritual pets take action, and she had been waiting for this moment.
"Zai Zai, Chi Yan, it's your turn." Gu Qingxi said calmly.
"Cry!" A loud cry sounded in the air.
A huge divine bird flapped its wings and sprayed a bolt of fire into the air.
Following his flight path, the fire extended, forming a burning wall of fire outside the city.
However, this wall of fire is different from Zaizai's previous demon fire. It contains the natal essence fire that he just condensed not long ago, which is what people usually call the fire of Nirvana.
For the Phoenix clan, the fire of Nirvana is the foundation for rebirth, but for other monster races, it is the fire of death.
In the wall of fire, hundreds of Sky-Splitting Thunder Beasts were unable to escape and were burned to ashes in an instant. The dense beast group was also split into two by the wall of fire.
Although they were still in a violent rage, their instinct to seek good fortune and avoid disaster was still there. Those outside the fire wall retreated one after another, but those inside the fire wall had no way to retreat and could only crash towards the city wall even more crazily.
But they had no chance. A young man with short hair standing straight up and an unruly expression was already standing in front of them, rushing into the herd with blazing black flames.
The phoenix has natal essence fire, and so does the demonic fire. This is Chi Yan’s natal essence fire: Mo Yan!
Although it does not have the effect of being reborn from the fire like the Fire of Nirvana, the fiery high temperature contained in the Demon Flame is not any worse than the Fire of Nirvana.
Feeling the terror of the demonic flames, the Sky-Splitting Thunder Beasts fled in all directions, but with a city wall on one side and a wall of fire containing the fire of Nirvana on the other, where could they escape to?
Wherever the red flames passed, the Sky-Splitting Thunder Beasts let out frightened and desperate roars, and disappeared into ashes in the blink of an eye.
The ancient city lord and others were dumbfounded: Phoenix, that is the legendary Phoenix! Demonic fire, that was the legendary demonic fire!
I thought that Gu Qingxi's sword skills were already amazing enough, but now I know that her spiritual pet is even more amazing.
It's saved. Now Moyun City is really saved! While shocked, everyone was ecstatic.
Gu Qingxi was not so optimistic. Zaizai's Nirvana Fire is very strong, and Chi Yan's Demonic Flame is not weak either, but they are still in the growth stage and there is no way they can persist for too long.
"Where is the city defense formation?" Gu Qingxi asked the ancient city master.
"The City Lord's Mansion." The Ancient City Lord replied subconsciously.
After he came back to his senses, he added: "The city defense formation in Moyun City has been in disrepair for a long time. It was severely damaged when the monsters attacked the day before yesterday. I'm afraid it won't be of much use anymore."
"Take me there." Gu Qingxi said simply.
As long as the city defense formation is still there, no matter how serious the damage is, she can repair it.
Seeing Gu Qingxi's insistence, the ancient city lord didn't ask any questions, stepped on the flying sword, and led Gu Qingxi to the city lord's mansion.
Only then did Gu Qingxi have time to look at Moyun City.
Compared with Fenglan City, Luoshui City and other cities, the scale of this ancient city is obviously much smaller.
This is normal. Moyun City is too remote and there was no need to build a city in the first place.
Just because it was close to the Eternal Wasteland, the monks who came to practice needed a place to stay, or to trade natural materials and treasures on the spot, so Moyun City gradually came into being.
What puzzled Gu Qingxi was that there were killing sounds on the city walls and beasts roaring like thunder outside the city, but the city was quiet and the streets were empty.
What is going on? Are the people of Moyun City so calm that they are not worried about the destruction of the city and the death of people? In her third life, this was the first time she had seen such a strange thing.
But she didn't wonder for long, and found the answer after a moment.
In the square in front of the city lord's palace, tens of thousands of people knelt on the ground with solemn and pious expressions.
No wonder the city is so quiet, everyone has gathered here.
"What are they doing?" Gu Qingxi asked.
So many people knelt together, but no one made a sound. This scene was a little solemn, but also a little depressing, which made her feel very strange.
"Pray." The ancient city lord said, "Pray for a miracle to appear."
"What did you say, a miracle?" Gu Qingxi looked at the ancient city lord in surprise, her eyes becoming strange.
