at the same time.
Commander Yuan Li wore armor and went forward.
He was high in the clouds, looking down.
I saw many ferocious birds and beasts and had already caught up with the defeated troops.
But instead of coming to the rescue, he rose higher.
This can avoid those birds and the sight of the soldiers below.
With an indifferent expression, he rode the wind and continued forward, feeling vaguely strange in his heart.
"The scale of the beast tide is wrong. It is much larger than expected."
"Six thousand ferocious beasts, two thousand ferocious birds, attacking twelve high platform formations are enough."
"But along the way, there are more than three hundred demon soldiers!"
"Could it be that the three hundred demon soldiers you mentioned are the three hundred basic realms?"
Commander Yuan Li's expression changed, and he said secretly: "My Seventh Mountain, backed by the imperial court, obeys the orders of the Prince of Zhenyang, and gathers elites from all walks of life, but among the tens of thousands of soldiers, there are not even a hundred Taoist priests..."
——
Deep in the southern mountains, there are more than ten people, climbing high and looking into the distance.
They were dressed in black robes and all wore the costumes of the Pluto Sect.
"Great Elder, this situation is wrong. It is bigger than the ancestor expected." A middle-aged man said in a low voice.
"Thousands of beasts are galloping, this scene is truly spectacular."
The leader of the old man stroked his beard slightly and said: "Six thousand ferocious beasts, two thousand ferocious birds, plus three hundred demon soldiers... What's more important is that there are originally birds and animals in the mountains!"
The middle-aged man just now suddenly became enlightened.
The ancestor indeed mobilized only three hundred demon soldiers and eight thousand birds and beasts.
But these eight thousand birds and beasts and three hundred demon soldiers also swept away the monsters and spirits in the original mountain, so the scale expanded far.
"Back then, I also went to the deserted gardens in the Northern Territory and crossed the snow-capped mountains."
The old man said with emotion: "Under that big mountain, everything is white and covered with snow. With just a loud roar, the snow collapses and rolls down, burying everything!"
He smiled and said, "I also tried it. I made a snowball as big as my palm. I threw it from the top of the mountain and rolled it down. Can you guess how big it is at the bottom of the mountain?"
He patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder and said, "That snowball is higher than your shoulders."
The middle-aged man suddenly said: "So the eight thousand birds and beasts and the three hundred demon soldiers are the original palm-sized snowball?"
The old man shook his head and said: "Ancestor's words are the palm-sized snowball!"
"We are no different from those birds and beasts. We all cling to this snowball and roll together to build momentum."
The old man exhaled and said: "My ancestor has a destiny to capture Lu Wan alive. After that, I can take over as the master of the Soul-Retaining Palace!"
The Master of the Soul-Jinging Hall was originally a great master in making cauldrons, but he fell into the hands of Lu Wan, and everyone knows it!
At that time, Lu Wan's cultivation was poor!
This is a great shame and humiliation for the Pluto Sect!
For Juhun Palace, it is also a great shame and humiliation!
Therefore, as long as he can capture Lu Wan alive this time, he can wash away his shame and succeed to the Soul-Retaining Palace!
"The palace master died in his hands..." The middle-aged man hesitated and said, "I'm afraid this battle will be difficult."
"Do you really believe the rumors? In the initial stage of Daoji, can you kill the great success of making a cauldron?" The great elder exhaled and said: "Even if he really killed him, there must be extremely complicated reasons. I think it must be the master of Xuantian Guan. His handiwork!"
"That's right. With the abilities of our palace master, who can kill him under the power of refining the gods?" Another old man pondered.
"But there's no guarantee that this kid still has some tricks up his sleeve?" the middle-aged man asked again.
"The means that can kill the great success of the Casting Cauldron are equivalent to being personally executed by the God Refining Realm...could there be endless ones?" The Great Elder shook his head and said: "He is probably exhausted."
"What if it's not exhausted?" The middle-aged man hesitated.
"Then let him be exhausted first." The Great Elder pointed forward and said, "Who do you think this earth-shattering beast tide is for?"
"Then we have to successfully lure Lu Wan out of the city, otherwise it will be useless to stay in the Seventh Mountain City?" The middle-aged man said again.
"If we fail to lure Lu Wan out of the city, then the responsibility lies with Yuan Li and has nothing to do with us!"
When the great elder said this, he saw that the middle-aged man seemed to want to speak, so he couldn't help but shouted: "That's enough!"
He was so angry that he was timid before the battle and destroyed his own morale. If he were placed in a large army, he would be beheaded!
But this middle-aged man is the sect leader's nephew.
That's why he, the future master of Soul-Jieting Palace, endured his temper and kept explaining.
I didn’t expect this guy to be endless!
——
And on the other end.
deep in the southern mountains.
A giant, holding a giant hammer, with a solemn expression.
He is a hundred feet tall, as high as a mountain.
The muscles are knotted and the blood is boiling.
"Chief, this beast tide can't break through the Seventh Mountain City. Can we continue to drive the ferocious beasts and birds in the mountain towards that side?"
At this moment, another strong man asked in a deep voice.
"No need."
The leader of the Barbarian King said: "Follow the current and don't turn against the guest."
He learned this from White Monkey King.
It is naturally good to add some waves to the waves set off by others.
But the wave that I added to it overwhelmed the storm caused by others.
Then the family that was washed away by the wave would be targeting him.
"If this is the case, I'm afraid it will be in vain."
"It was just a trial in the first place."
The leader of the Barbarian King said slowly: "The birds and beasts mobilized by the people are less than ten thousand, and they obviously do not want to attack the Seventh Mountain City in one fell swoop! We don't need to rush to attack, let's take a look at the situation first... The White Monkey King said, this It’s called sizing up the situation!”
——
South of the Seventh Mountain City.
Most of the beast tide has crossed the formation of the twelve front mountain towers, officially breaking through the first line of defense, and heading towards the seventh mountain city.
Many of the soldiers who originally retreated were overtaken by the faster monster and were buried in the belly of the beast.
And Xuantian Guan's manpower also suffered many losses.
At the same time, in the dense forest, inside the rock cave.
The three figures were covered in blood and breathing heavily.
It was Feng Cheng, Yan Jing, and Li Qi.
As for the other six people who had left behind, they had all died under the claws of the beast.
Three soldiers and three disciples named Yan.
After killing the first batch of scattered monsters that attacked, Feng Cheng believed that he would definitely die if he continued to stay.
It was expected that the dozen or so people who retreated must have fled far away, so he decided to take the remaining two people and escape into the cave, covering them with weeds in front of the cave.
They sealed the entrance of the cave with stones and filled the gaps with soil.
Yan Jing has the highest cultivation level and his injuries are relatively minor.
Feng Cheng, who had the most experience, only suffered injuries to his thigh and waist, but the injuries were not serious and were mainly due to fatigue.
As for Li Qi, it was because before setting off, Bai Yuan saw Venerable Lu giving him a talisman of son and mother, so he also looked at him high and gave him three unused talismans.
And it was these three talismans that saved his life.
"We have tried our best."
Feng Cheng gasped and said: "I am exhausted and can't stop it at all..."
Li Qi was even more miserable than him. He almost collapsed on the ground and couldn't lift the knife.
In fact, Yan Jing did not seem to be seriously injured, but even his helmet was taken off. At this moment, his hair was disheveled, and his eyes could not hide the fatigue.
"Hopefully they can all escape."
Yan Jing said this and whispered: "Why didn't you take them here to take refuge before?"
"Have you not noticed that this cave is not big? It seems crowded to hide the three of us, and it is not easy to hide a small team!"
Feng Cheng shook his head and said: "We can't hide our two teams..."
So we need to let a group of people run first.
Let them cut off the rear and let the brothers who escaped try to escape some distance.
Here is the escape route for the nine of them, but only three of them are alive now.
If it weren't for Feng Cheng, who was extremely familiar with this place, all three of them would have died.
"I hope the beast tide will pass soon."
Li Qi whispered, his eyes still filled with panic about the scene just now.
Then I saw Feng Cheng sighing, leaning on a long knife, and bowing towards the edge of the cave.
Yan Jing and Li Qi looked at each other in shock.
"Do you know why I know the secret cave here?"
Feng Cheng turned around and asked.
Before they could answer, Feng Cheng's voice continued to be heard.
"I joined the army with my brother back then, but twelve years ago, when he was patrolling the mountains, he was attacked by a demon wolf and disappeared."
"Later, Deputy Commander Lin Qi led a team to search the mountain and arrived here. They only saw the broken corpses and a litter of wolf cubs here."
"In a fit of rage, I burned the litter of wolves."
"Vice Commander Lin Qi killed the demon wolf."
He stood up slowly and sighed: "This was originally a wolf den, and there is still some evil spirit around it. Ordinary ferocious birds and beasts will not come near this place."
The three of them have been hiding here for a long time.
However, the movement from the outside world has not stopped for a long time.
"This tide of beasts is very wrong."
Feng Cheng's eyes were complicated and he whispered: "It's very abnormal..."
He is a veteran who participated in the war ten years ago, experienced many beast tides, and fought against the monsters in the mountains not once or twice.
Yan Jing and Li Qi both looked solemn when they heard this.
Just as Feng Cheng was about to continue speaking, his expression suddenly changed and he looked towards the entrance of the cave.
Boom!
The rock breaks!
Scarlet eyes suddenly appeared!
At this moment, Feng Cheng remembered that back then, Deputy Commander Lin Qi killed the demon wolf, and then another deacon of Xuantian Temple arrived.
That was invited by his younger brother.
But the deacon of Xuantianguan arrived half a step late. After inspecting the place, he believed that the one killed by Deputy Commander Lin Qi was the female wolf after giving birth. She was extremely weak and was not the evil wolf that sneaked up on the patrolling army. .
"That's it!"
"It escaped deep into the mountains and came back again thanks to this tide of beasts!"
Feng Cheng raised his long sword, his eyes turned blood red, and he mobilized his whole body's energy to meet him.
Yan Jing looked slightly condensed and followed closely.
Li Qi gritted his teeth and went for the kill.
——
South of the Seventh Mountain City, the beast tide is gradually approaching.
Many lagging soldiers were overtaken by ferocious birds and beasts and had no choice but to fight to the death.
But even if they could kill the monsters that came after them, they still couldn't withstand the tide of beasts that swept behind them.
The real reason for fighting to the death is often to choose to fight for the opportunity for the leader in front of him to cut off the aftermath.
Only Lu Wan went upstream and charged against the tide of beasts.
Logically speaking, his energy should have been exhausted long ago.
However, he used the divine flower to restore himself, and his true energy seemed to be endless and endless.
"Is there a cauldron-making monster ahead?"
Lu Wan whispered: "Is this the monster driving the beast tide?"
The third ancestor’s grandmother’s voice echoed in my ears: “A great demon at the level of a cauldron can subdue dozens of monsters at the base level, and if it spreads... it can mobilize three to five thousand ferocious birds and beasts at best!”
The scale of this beast tide far exceeds tens of thousands!
In other words, there are at least two, or even three big demons of the cauldron level.
Maybe more!
Lu Wan asked himself, with the divine flower above the thunder tree shadow, it was barely enough to deal with a big demon of the cauldron level!
And Commander Yuan Li, logically speaking, can also stop a big monster!
If there were only two big monsters, then this beast tide could basically disintegrate.
But the problem is that there is very likely to be a third cauldron-making demon!
"The more important problem is that this guy Yuan Li may not be here to stop the beast tide!"
Lu Wan whispered: "Nine times out of ten, he is here for me."
As his thoughts turned, Lu Wanyun made Yu Gangxing fight, and the sword energy in his hand was swaying.
With just one sword, he can kill hundreds of demons!
This is the second sword of the Tianxuan Creation Sword, Galaxy!
"In terms of sharpness, it is not as good as the first sword 'Tongyou'!"
"But the scope of coverage is beyond comparison with the Sword of Tongyou!"
"Facing a large number of ferocious birds and beasts, the 'Galaxy Sword' is more effective!"
As Lu Wan was thinking this, the voice of Grandma Sanzu came to his ears again, telling him not to be too complacent.
The Sword of the Galaxy is nothing more than a small success.
If it is the realm of Dacheng, when it is swayed, the sword light will shine like thousands of stars in the sky.
Then Grandma Sanzu started bragging about her achievements that year!
She once killed more than 8,000 demons with one sword, including three giant cauldron demons and more than 100 Taoist demons!
One person and one sword guard a mountain!
That year, she had not yet refined herself!
But that year, her Galaxy Sword was already completed.
"What does Dacheng's Galaxy Sword look like?" Lu Wan couldn't help but ask.
"With one strike of the sword, it is as mighty as a river." Third Grandma Grandma said slowly: "The sword energy is like water, which can be gathered into a river or dispersed into rain... With just one strike of the sword, stars can become a river!"
Lu Wan couldn't help but have a look of yearning in his eyes.
He swung his sword and killed more than a hundred demons.
But in the depths of the beast tide ahead, an extremely strong energy has appeared.
That is the great demon of the Cauldron-casting series!
Lu Wan's Galaxy Sword killed more than a hundred demons with each sword strike. He went upstream in the tide of beasts and killed more than 800 demons!
It’s enough to attract the attention of the great cauldron demon behind him!
The great cauldron-making demon in charge of this area is actually a vicious wolf!
No wonder that among the ferocious beasts nearby, wolves are the majority, and there are also quite a few evil wolves that have turned into monsters.
"What a great skill. Are you the person in charge of Xuantian Temple this time?"
The evil wolf has deep eyes, a huge body, and a grayish-white body. It speaks human words and has a deep voice.
Beside it, there were three or four Daoji-level demon wolves, as well as more than sixty evil wolves that had condensed their demonic aura.
"Exactly."
Lu Wan held the Duan Chen Sword, gave a salute, and said with a smile: "Xuan Tian Guan, Lu Wan, I have met the Wolf King."
"It's a bit polite."
The wolf king's eyes sparkled and he said: "A mere Daoji has become the person in charge of Xuantian Guan and his group. It seems that the rumors are true. Xuantian Guan has been ruined! In the past, everyone in this royal family was killed by you Xuantian Look, we killed a lot of people, and today I should use your blood to pay homage to them..."
"Listening to the Wolf King's current intentions, should there be a different way to deal with me now?"
Hearing this, Lu Wan raised his eyebrows and said, "So, is this tide of beasts really coming for me? What a pity for these soldiers guarding the border!"
The Wolf King walked slowly and said: "If you restrain yourself, I can withdraw the beast tide and stop driving them north."
Lu Wan smiled and said: "If this is the case, it should be able to save the lives of many soldiers."
"But you obviously don't want to be tied down."
The Wolf King said this.
Immediately, a large number of demon wolves came up to kill them.
Surprisingly, when he was talking just now, there were already many demon wolves wandering around and surrounding him.
But Lu Wan did not dodge, and swept his sword across, pointing straight ahead, it was the Sword of the Galaxy!
Then he turned around, pressed his left palm, and thunder exploded!
Just one encounter killed many demon wolves.
But the wolf demon in the Daoji realm has also rushed towards the door!
But Lu Wan was wearing the finest magic weapons and armor, and even the demon wolf below the cauldron, no matter how sharp its claws and teeth were, could not hurt his body.
Instead, Lu Wan took advantage of the situation and killed many of them.
"It seems that my ability is quite good. It is not comparable to that of ordinary Taoists. No wonder I can swim upstream in the tide of beasts and look for traces of my king!"
The Wolf King said this and shouted: "Stand back, I will take him down personally!"
Before its voice fell, it was already slaying.
The huge body is like a mountain suppressing it!
The faint light appears, which is the release of mana!
Boom!
The ground collapsed!
The Wolf King landed on the ground and looked at the place where his claws landed.
The land collapsed with its claw.
But the person who was supposed to be held under its claws disappeared.
"My step is above its head."
The sound suddenly spread under its claws.
But the edge of the sword energy came from above the head.
"My sword is sharp and sharp!"
"Roar!!!"
The Wolf King suddenly erupted with powerful magic power, and he avoided it in an instant.
But the next moment, another thunder fell on him.
It was caught off guard, carelessly underestimated the enemy, and was injured by a Xuantian Temple disciple at the Daoji level.
Its eyes became cold in an instant.
"fine……"
Lu Wan breathed out. Although he failed to kill the wolf king, he at least injured the opponent. He thought to himself: "It seems that my reputation is not big enough. At least the wolf king in the deep mountains and old forests does not seem to know about my achievements." ...It still treats me as an ordinary Daoji realm."
Even though Lu Wan had killed two figures who were successful in making the cauldron, he still did not dare to be careless when facing this Wolf King.
After all, this wolf king had never received two blows from the Soul-killing Sword, nor had he been struck back by a thunderstorm.
This time it's hard to make tricks, you need to use your own skills to fight a real and genuine fight with a great monster that casts a cauldron!
"Four immortal Taoist platforms are enough to make you invincible in the realm of Taoism, but when facing the cast tripod, you still need to borrow the power of the divine flower!"
Grandma Sanzu said: "It was shocked by you. At this moment, white flowers are forming above the shadow of the thunder tree!"
There was indeed fear in the Wolf King's eyes.
Its ability to appear and disappear really makes it feel uneasy.
The sword and the thunderbolt just now were not like those that could be displayed at the Daoji level.
It did not attack again, but began to gather momentum and look for opportunities.
——
at the same time.
The other end.
Commander Yuan Li looked at the big demon in front of him.
It was a giant python, entrenched on the hill, as thick as a bucket.
But this man and the python did not start a fight.
After just looking at each other, Commander Yuan Li spoke.
"That boy indeed has the rumored magical abilities. Even the Wolf King can't defeat him!"
"I'm afraid something will change later!"
The giant python finally spoke and said: "I am going to help... You can stay and help me drive away the beast tide!"
