Not long after the last war, the consumption of the human monk coalition was far from being replenished.
Monks are not leeks in the ground, they will grow back quickly after being cut.
It takes at least twenty years for a human being to be born, grow up and mature.
Training a monk, even an ordinary monk, requires an investment of time and resources.
As for the elite monks of various cultivation forces, it is even more difficult to train them.
Since the battle with the monsters began, cultivators in the area of Maple Leaf Mountain City have suffered a large loss.
If it weren't for the monks from Taiyi Sect who kept sending over, as the skeleton of the entire monk coalition, the defense here would have collapsed long ago.
Despite this, judging from the number of monks alone, the monk alliance is still far inferior to that in its heyday.
Speaking of which, it is easier to replenish the loss of items.
Most of the formations and fortresses along the entire defense line have been repaired.
The consumed mechanical artifacts, talismans, etc. were barely replenished.
Jin Qiaoer scouted in the distance and discovered three different groups of monsters, all of which rushed here in unison.
The three monster groups, not to mention how many low-level monsters there are, there are three fourth-level monsters alone.
In addition, no one can say whether the inner demon cultivator who hid in the secret and took control of the Houtu Divine General will join forces with the monster.
As the True Lord of the Soul, Jin Qiaoer has the responsibility to fight against fourth-level monsters or demon cultivators at the Soul level.
After she discovered the enemy's movements, she did not stay outside for too long and immediately returned to the defense line.
She sat on the defensive line, slowly adjusting her condition, waiting for a fight with a powerful enemy.
At this time, among the monk coalition forces, several teams composed of Jindan real people were sent out and began to wander near the defense line.
These teams must monitor the surrounding movements in real time and be responsible for covering the flanks of the monk coalition.
If there are any changes on the battlefield, they must react immediately.
Compared with the monks who defend the front line of defense, these monks who take the initiative to conduct patrols and guerrillas outside have lost the cover of the magic circle and the fortress and go deep into dangerous areas alone. They will obviously encounter greater dangers.
Raising an army for a thousand days can be spent in just one moment.
For a Yuanshen sect like Taiyi Sect, Jindan Zhenren is the absolute backbone of the sect and the main force in external operations.
For those Jindan forces, Jindan Zhenren is the pillar of support for the sect.
Now that the monster army is approaching, it is time for them to repay the cultivation and support of the sect.
Several teams, each with at least three Jindan masters, had taken sufficient precautions in advance and began to take the initiative.
Before the monster group reached the front of the defense line, Yang Xueyi also left the coalition camp and went to sit at the front line of defense.
The three groups of monsters come from different directions, with different speeds and routes.
The three groups of monsters arrived at the front of the defense line at different times. Instead, they arrived here in three waves.
Originally, after Yang Xueyi learned about this situation, she also considered whether to take the initiative and make a time difference to eliminate the first group of monsters to arrive.
But after discussing it with Jin Qiaoer, she gave up the idea.
There are a huge number of monsters in each monster group, and there are probably demon cultivators watching them secretly.
Abandoning the geographical location of the defense line and taking the initiative to attack, once the tactical goal is not achieved, it falls into a protracted war. When the other two groups of monsters arrive on the battlefield, the consequences will be disastrous.
Meng Zhang is also helping Houtu God General get rid of his control.
Yang Xueyi and the others should try their best to delay the situation while guarding tightly.
Meng Zhang is not only a master in the middle stage of Yuanshen, he also holds a magic-conquering mirror and has mastered many powerful magic-conquering techniques.
After he is done, and he joins the battlefield, our side will be foolproof.
Each of these three monster groups is led by a fourth-level monster.
The relationship between these three fourth-level monsters is definitely not friendly.
In fact, all fourth-level monsters are in a competitive relationship.
In each other's eyes, they are all panaceas that can help their families get promoted.
If a fourth-level monster can swallow another fourth-level monster, it is no less than taking a big tonic, and all aspects will be greatly improved.
If they didn't have a common goal, these fourth-level monsters would start fighting among themselves.
After the three huge groups of monsters arrived near the defense line, they were separated by a not-so-close distance and confronted each other.
Many monsters in the three monster groups broke away from the group and wandered forward.
Firstly, it serves a reconnaissance role, and secondly, it also scans the surrounding creatures, taking the opportunity to strengthen and supplement one's own side.
The surrounding area, especially in front of the human monks' defense line. After the previous two groups of monsters swept away all the creatures, it could almost be said that all living things were extinct, not even a blade of grass could grow, and there was no hope of life for a long time.
The human race dispatched many monks and spent a lot of manpower and material resources to purify this area and remove a large number of residual evil spirits from monsters.
However, with the arrival of new groups of monsters, bursts of demonic aura rose into the sky, and there was a continuous flow of demonic aura spreading across the entire land.
All the previous efforts of many monks were in vain, and the demonization of this area became more serious.
Without getting too close, even if they were hiding within the defense line, the human monks could see the black ink-like demonic energy meandering and spiraling up into the sky.
This kind of momentum looks really shocking.
These three groups of monsters stopped advancing and were temporarily entrenched in three different places.
Of course, the monster group itself is chaotic and without any discipline at all.
These monsters don't just sit around. They started chasing and wrestling with each other, even fighting and devouring each other.
For this kind of situation, the fourth-level monsters who lead the monster group have long been accustomed to it.
As long as the monsters can rush up in a general direction after giving the order to attack, that's enough.
The three fourth-level monsters were wary of each other, and even though they had a common goal, they were not in a hurry to launch an attack.
I don't know what they are waiting for, they just hang around without making any big movements.
The monster group is in no hurry to attack, and the human monk alliance is just what they want.
The longer the delay is, the more beneficial it will be for the human monk coalition.
Some of the monks seized the last time to prepare for war and repaired the loopholes in the defense line at full speed.
Some monks adjust their breathing regularly to try to achieve the best state of their energy and spirit.
…
At this time, in the camp of the monk alliance, the demon cultivator of the Heart Demon Dao used the seeds of the inner demon that he had planted in advance to send his power through the air. He used the body of General Houtu as a battlefield and was engaged in the final battle with Meng Zhang.
The winner between the two sides was decided in the blink of an eye.
