After carrying Ba Jiang back to the wooden house he rented, Chen Mobai was ready to say goodbye and leave.
"Brother Chen, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. Once I recover from my injury, prepare another generous gift."
Ba Jiang lay weakly on the wooden bed and spoke with a sad smile.
"After all, we just met each other, and I won't feel sorry if I don't save him."
Chen Mobai just shook his head, and then asked about the situation of the monsters, but Ba Jiang didn't know much.
After he and his sister hunted the black-armored turtle, they took a detour to hunt another kind of monster. As a result, they ran into a large group of black plague birds before they succeeded.
Before the second-level Bird King could take action, nearly a thousand Black Plague Birds breathed out strong winds, a dense rain of arrows, covering all possible escape spaces.
Ba Jiang had a life-saving second-level defensive talisman on his body, but his sister was not so lucky. She was riddled with wounds and died in the water.
"Does this Yunmengze monster often attack the island?"
Chen Mobai is a complete foreigner, and his understanding of the situation here is limited to this period of time.
Although Ba Jiang had just arrived, he was from a local Immortal Cultivator family in the Eastern Wilderness. He had grown up listening to the legends of Yunmengze since he was a child, so he knew some things.
"It is said that there are fourth-level monsters in the deepest part of Yunmeng Ze, but they were suppressed by Hunyuan Patriarch of the Five Elements Sect and several colleagues a hundred years ago."
"After the ancestor of Hunyuan was reincarnated fifty years ago, this seal became increasingly unstable. Powerful monsters often rushed out of the sealed town. They led their respective ethnic groups to cause trouble. If it weren't for the Five Elements Sect's water veins, The Nujiang Master has been stationed at Fengyuwu all year round, guarding the closed town. I am afraid that Yunmengze has long since become a paradise for monsters."
"But even so, the seven major sects of the Eastern Wasteland will still organize their disciples to come to Yunmengze to hunt monsters on a large scale every once in a while. Otherwise, they will attack Fengyuwu both inside and outside the closed town. In the legend, The fourth-level monster might actually escape."
"In the past thirty years, the monster army has also learned to be smart. It will attack the major islands in Yunmengze in advance before the Eastern Wilderness sect jointly launches the monster hunting conference. Usually at this time, it is the final It was a brutal battle.”
After hearing these words, Chen Mobai couldn't help but fell silent, and then asked a question.
"Qingguang Island, can it be stopped?"
"After all, the Shenmu Sect is one of the seven major sects in the Eastern Wasteland. It has extraordinary foundation and will most likely be able to stop it, but many people may die."
Ba Jiang said something that made Chen Mobai sigh.
There is a high probability that it might not be possible to stop it.
"At this time, as casual cultivators, we have no choice but to place our hope in Shenmu Sect, and they will also launch a summons to let us casual cultivators help defend the island."
"Oh, is this summoning order mandatory?"
"Then it depends on the face of Shenmu Sect, but even if it is not mandatory, we casual cultivators must help to defend the island, because once the island is destroyed, the disciples of Shenmu Sect may be able to leave by teleportation array, but we casual cultivators Xiu, must have been given up as cannon fodder."
Ba Jiang told the key point with a bitter look on his face, and Chen Mobai couldn't help but look confused.
Yes, if there is a teleportation array, the Shenmu Sect can obviously preserve its vitality and return to the sect's base camp.
But he immediately reacted.
Qingguang Daofang City is one of the best-run markets of the Shenmu Sect in Yunmengze. The monthly rent for the wooden house in Dongfu on the island, plus various shops and business taps, is at least tens of thousands of spirit stones. income.
If he retreated at this time and allowed the monster beasts to wreak havoc and destruction, even Master Jiedan would be extremely heartbroken.
Therefore, even if the Shenmu Sect wants to retreat through the teleportation array, it will definitely be under a situation where they have run out of ammunition and food and can no longer defend.
And in this case, the casual cultivators would definitely hope that the Shenmu Sect would not retreat and would also help them defend the island.
Chen Mobai was thinking about whether to leave immediately.
He has a turtle treasure and can retreat at will.
However, it was a rare experience for monsters to attack the island. Since he already had a safe escape route, and the Shenmu Sect must prioritize defending the island, he might be able to see the situation and hone his fighting skills. .
"Brother Ba, you should take good care of your injuries first. I'll go find Brother Qihou and see if he's on the island."
After Chen Mobai said this, he stood up and left.
He had followed Qi Hou on several missions to hunt monsters. He also knew the address of this disciple of the Shenmu Sect. It was the highest cave in the center of the island and the one with the best spiritual veins. It was even better than the Water Palace. It was a second-level high-grade cave. .
"Oh, it's you."
Qi Hou was lucky. Junior brother Xi happened to be in trouble today, so he did not leave the island, but he escaped the disaster.
However, Chen Mobai had better luck. He clearly left the island and met the Ba family brothers and sisters, but later he chose the right direction and returned safely.
After Qi Hou learned about the situation of the Ba brothers and sisters from his mouth, he couldn't help but sigh, and then took out a "Susheng Talisman" and asked Chen Mobai to help bring it to Ba Jiang.
"Brother Qi Dao, if this monster attacks the island, how will we, the casual cultivators, deal with it?"
After Chen Mobai took the talisman, he asked about these things.
If the Shenmu Sect was harsh on casual cultivators, he would plan to run away.
"Well, I just happened to be coming from Master Zheng's place, and the summoning order will be issued soon, so I'll let you know in advance."
"Our Shenmu Sect sends out spiritual stones to hire all the casual cultivators on the island. 5 spiritual stones a day in the late stage of qi training, 2 spiritual stones a day in the middle stage of qi practice, and 1 spiritual stone a day in the early stage of qi practice. As long as everyone dares to die Effective, this spiritual stone will be distributed on the same day.”
"Even if he performs well in the battle to defend the island, our Shenmu Sect can make an exception and recruit him as a disciple of our sect after the war."
After Qi Hou finished speaking, Chen Mobai couldn't help but sigh at the courage of this foundation-building monk named Zheng.
Although even if there is no spirit stone, the casual cultivators on the island will help the Shenmu Sect to defend the island for their own lives, but now that the summoning order with favorable conditions is issued, basically 99% of the casual cultivators will Worked to the death.
Even Chen Mobai himself was very moved.
"Junior Brother Chen, you have already reached the seventh level of Qi training at a young age. I am very happy that you can join our Shenmu Sect, and the two of us will become true brothers."
After a few words of encouragement, Qi Hou said he was going to set up defenses at the large formation flag on the east side of Qingguang Island. After waiting for three fellow disciples to form a team, he hurriedly left.
Chen Mobai took his rebirth talisman and returned to Bajiang's wooden house. After giving him the talisman, he spoke about the summoning order of the Shenmu Sect.
"If the spirit stones are distributed on the same day, even the most suspicious casual cultivators will be dispelled. This uncle Zheng Deming is indeed one of the monks most likely to form elixirs in the Shenmu Sect. He is very courageous and a casual cultivator. Origin, understand our mentality.”
After hearing this, Ba Jiang sighed.
As expected, some casual cultivators were ready to pack up and leave. After all, the target of the monster army must be Qingguang Island. As long as they dispersed and hid on the outlying islands in Yunmeng Ze, as long as they did not encounter the monster army washing the lake head-on, they would not be able to survive. The probability of coming down is not small.
But as soon as the summoning order was issued, basically all the casual cultivators chose to stay.
