Accompanied by the bright moon, the boy pointed his sword to make a boat; the red flame turned into wine, and the girl condensed ice into a cup; the two of them drifted in the night wind, traveling leisurely between heaven and earth.
"Yuan Qing, you have become more and more fond of drinking recently." The girl drank the red flame, her cheeks slightly red.
The young man smiled slightly, took another sip, and then stood facing the wind, chanting softly: "Drink strong wine when you are awake, and draw a sharp sword when you are drunk. Wouldn't it be nice to forget all the worldly things and cut away all the worries?"
Zhu Ling'er looked at the young man's clothes and sleeves fluttering, like an immortal in flight, with his smiling eyes like the moon.
"Who is here?" A soft shout interrupted Zhu Ling'er's thoughts, and she saw several black figures under the moonlit night, holding alms bowls and magic tools, muttering words, and moving strangely.
Zhu Ling'er glanced down and said calmly: "This is the first seven soul-collecting actions. There are many innocent souls on the battlefield, and evil cultivation has led to this."
When Yuan Qing heard this, he couldn't help but think of the three black-clothed monks who died in his own hands, and thought to himself: The Su family also has contacts with evil cultivators? After thinking about it, he smiled casually. It was just some dark tricks and tricks of villains. Just kill them with one sword.
Zhu Ling'er used her skills to dispel the smell of alcohol and said softly: "Let's go. After staying so openly and openly for such a long time, I don't know how many people will say that you are showing off."
"Okay." Yuan Qing turned around and was about to return to the city with his sword. Suddenly he looked at Zhu Ling'er and grinned. Then he put away his flying sword and hugged her into his arms.
The sword light reappeared and she leaned against the boy's chest, with a steady and powerful heartbeat in her ears. The girl held her hands tightly, feeling calm and peaceful in her heart.
On top of the city tower, a woman in red robe quietly watched the sword light streak across the sky, her eyes shining brightly.
On the same city wall, Zhuzhu looked at the two people who looked like a couple of gods, in a daze, with envy on his face.
The rest of the month flew by.
The monsters disappeared, and if they came again, the beast tide seemed to have died down. However, the soldiers were well prepared and prepared for the danger; the monks meditated and kept their spirits perfect, and the whole Xin'an City was filled with the feeling that a storm was about to come.
Mei Xinyi put away the jade talisman in her hand and frowned.
"There is no trace of the beast in all factions. Except for Junior Brother Wei, there is no news from the other Danjie brothers. It seems that the situation is serious and not optimistic."
Bai Zhi snorted: "Mighty Pearl?"
"Junior sister, Junior Brother Wei is a bit lazy on weekdays, but at least he has cultivated his alchemy skills. In extraordinary times, he should be able to use him."
"I'm just afraid that he won't be able to slay the demon..."
Before they finished speaking, the two of them suddenly looked to the horizon at the same time, and then they appeared in a flash of light at the top of the city.
The city guard sergeant still didn't know why, and looked at the two gods in mid-air with confusion. After a while, the city wall under his feet began to shake slightly, and then he heard a rumbling sound, and then saw a black line appearing on the horizon, rolling in like a flood. .
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
…
Yuan Qing was concentrating on refining the sword embryo in the room, and the Liuyang Renshui array around him was shining with crystal light. Suddenly a vibration came from where he was sitting, followed by a warning bell and howling. He hurriedly put away his skills, rolled up his array weapon, and headed straight for the tower with his sword.
Wang Qing and others reached the city tower first and saw a vast sea of beasts surging forward, seemingly endless. His spiritual consciousness swept over them, and all they saw were green bulls, among which bull demons with heights of eight feet and eight feet accounted for a full 30%.
Then, the roar of tigers on the left shook the sky, and all that could be seen were ferocious tigers two feet tall, moving like the wind; wolves howled incessantly on the right, and there were eight-foot demon wolves everywhere, bloodthirsty and crazy.
Suddenly there was a loud hissing sound, and large fiery red snakes three feet long emerged from the ground, forming a sea of snakes and rushing from behind.
Besieged on all sides!
Yuan Qing stopped beside Zhu Ling'er, his face solemn.
Zhu Ling'er's expression was cold, but the rising and falling spiritual pressure on her body showed that her heart was not as calm as it seemed.
Yuan Qing gently took her hand, his eyes gentle.
Zhu Ling'er smiled and felt at ease.
Wang Qing looked at the sea of beasts, his face ashen. After a moment of silence, he picked up the gourd and drank a sip. Then he cursed: "His grandma's monsters are like ghosts. They have so many babies. I will roast all these beasts in a while." Let the motherfucker regenerate!”
Li Yang said in a deep voice from the side: "There are so many monsters, this battle is dangerous."
Liu Han's eyes flickered, already thinking of quitting.
…
Su Tianqi and others looked stern, and the eyes of the woman beside them were filled with fear.
"elder brother……"
"Don't fight to the death. Retreat immediately when the situation goes wrong! Leng Yan, Su Yaze, you are responsible for protecting Ziyi. If something goes wrong, don't blame Su for being ruthless!"
"yes."
"As commanded."
…
Zhao Yimu no longer looked as calm as before, his face was gloomy and his brows were furrowed.
The man in green shirt had a calm face and said in a low voice: "Yan'er, junior brother, don't leave my side for a while."
Huang Shuo stood tightly behind the man, and the woman smiled softly, with no fear on her face.
…
Han Dongxing put a brilliant talisman into Han Hongrui's hand and said softly: "Xiaorui, this is the Baili instant talisman. If the situation is not right, you can use this talisman to escape immediately."
Tears welled up in Han Hongrui's eyes, and she said softly: "Brother..." She was already crying.
…
Not long after, the Lord of the City also appeared on the roof. Looking at the beasts that were several times larger than last time, his lips turned white and his lapels were stained with cold sweat. He opened his mouth to say something, but his throat was so tight that it was difficult to make any sound.
The soldiers looked at the sea of beasts that was getting closer and closer. They couldn't help but have difficulty breathing, their hands and feet were limp, and their faces were full of despair.
There was deathly silence in the city.
The pillar seemed to be isolated in another space, no sound could be heard, and everything around him seemed to have nothing to do with him.
The space became smaller and smaller, and the pillar became more and more difficult to breathe. This feeling of suffocation almost drove him crazy.
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, he opened his mouth, his blood surged up, and he yelled with all his strength.
"ah!!!!!!"
Like thunder exploding, the soldiers regained their vitality in an instant, and then roars rose up one after another, forming a majestic sound, angry and desperate.
The city lord was shocked and came to his senses. When the noise stopped, he took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "You will die if you run away, and you will die if you fight. It is better to fight to the fullest! How can a seven-foot man frighten a group of beasts? , I have lost my ambition! If Yue can get to know you all, I will have no regrets in this life, and I will have wine and chat with you in the next life!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Amidst the deafening sound of killing, Mei Xinyi's voice rang faintly in the ears of the cultivators: "Eight hundred miles from here, there is a mountain named Beiliang. All the Yuanying-stage elders of all sects are stationed here. If you can't do anything, retreat immediately."
The eyes of all the practitioners were erratic for a moment, with different thoughts.
The herd of beasts didn't stop, and in a blink of an eye, they were already at the gate of the city. Then, a five-foot-tall white tiger, a gray wolf, a green bull, and a more than ten-foot-long red python passed through the herd and came to the front, looking at Mei Xinyi and Bai Zhi with cold eyes.
At the same time, dozens of miles away, a green escaping light slowly flew towards Xin'an City. Suddenly the light stopped, revealing a short, fat monk wearing a purple robe, with a round face and a pig nose, standing upright.
His eyes were closed tightly, and there was a faint green light all over his body, as if he was exploring something.
After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes, with a look of horror on his face. Without thinking, he set up the escape light and fled south. The speed was lightning fast, which was very different from when he came.
On the other side, Mei Xinyi and Bai Zhi's expressions were more solemn than ever before. The cultivators were even more frightened when they saw the four demonic beasts in the pill formation stage. Many of them had already released flying magic weapons, and at the same time, they were afraid of four or five spiritual talismans. Ishin prepared to run away.
"Junior sister Bai Zhi and I can hold these four demonic beasts in the Core Formation stage, so you just have to wait and see for yourself and run away." Mei Xinyi's deep voice rang in everyone's ears.
Before he finished speaking, a five-foot-long golden-winged eagle appeared on the horizon, followed by a group of three-foot-sized green-winged birds. In an instant, they flew above everyone's heads, hovering uncertainly, almost blocking the sky.
"That's it!" Wang Qing looked at the golden eagle carefully and exclaimed.
Yuan Qing took a closer look and saw a snow-white civet cat nesting on the top of the golden eagle's head. It seemed to be sleeping but not sleeping. It was very cute.
The little beast moved its nose slightly, as if it smelled something. Then he stood up and glanced downwards with squinted eyes.
A man and a beast looked at each other, and the little beast let out a "oooo". When he sat down, the golden eagle suddenly circled and stopped above Yuan Qing's head, its eagle eyes like swords.
Yuan Qing only felt two sharp sword energy reaching his body, breaking through the brain palace and hitting the sea of consciousness. A burst of heartbreaking pain came from his brain, and he couldn't help but bend his knees and became unsteady.
Suddenly, the transparent sword heart moved spontaneously, and the heart suddenly became clear and peaceful. The sword shadow in the sea of consciousness shook slightly, and two invisible shadows separated, and they disappeared in a flash.
With two soft "ding ding" sounds, Yuan Qing straightened up, his face calm, neither sad nor happy.
The golden eagle roared loudly, its eyes full of surprise.
"Do it!"
Mei Xinyi saw the opportunity and gave a soft drink, then offered the jade ruler and Bagua mirror. The shadow of the ruler filled the sky, turning into four torrents and attacking the four monsters on the ground; the green light shone directly on the golden eagle.
Bai Zhi waved her hand and threw out the scroll, took the golden eagle fixed by the blue light into it, then opened her mouth and spat out the white crystal beads, made a hand seal with her hands, and saw a three-foot ice sword emerging out of thin air, and after a brief pause, it turned into white rainbows. Cut off the four beasts.
The little beast reacted very quickly. Before the light of the mirror reached its body, it jumped onto the back of another big bird. Afterwards, it did not forget to show its fangs at Mei Xinyi and roared.
The four underground beasts each exerted their magical powers: the green bull stepped lightly on its right hoof, its body glowing with green light; the white tiger's steel tail was like a whip, drawing out afterimages; the gray wolf howled, and the wolf's hair covered the sky; the big python opened its bloody mouth and spit out a piece of blood. Fire cloud.
There were crackling sounds everywhere, and Mei Xinyi put away the magic weapon without even looking at it, transformed into a blue rainbow, and quickly fled towards the horizon.
Bai Zhi opened her mouth and spat out a ball of pure spiritual energy on the scroll, then held up a cloud silk handkerchief under her body. The handkerchief swelled in the wind to a height of about ten feet. A white light appeared a hundred feet away in a flash, and then disappeared into the horizon in a few flashes.
The cultivators scattered to break out when Mei and Bai took action.
Yuan Qing even used his transparent sword heart to directly use the art of integrating swords, killing several monster snakes blocking the road and rushing towards the southwest with Zhu Ling'er and four others.
The smoke and dust cleared, leaving the four beasts unscathed. Then with a neighing sound, the fire python and the white tiger chased in the direction of Bai Zhi; the gray wolf and the green bull ran in the direction of Mei Xinyi.
Most of the remaining demonic beasts followed closely behind the foundation-building monks, and the remaining small portion, together with the endless ferocious beasts, roared towards Xin'an City.
"Fire the arrow!"
"Pour some oil!"
Arrows rained down, unable to harm the monster beast at all; the sea of flames dissipated in a single breath of the fire python.
Some people abandoned their helmets and armor, and their original courage to face death was gone. They fled in a hurry, and were eventually killed in the beast's mouth. Some people shouted loudly, regardless of life and death, and burned with the beast with a moment of bravery.
After a while, the city walls collapsed, the city gates were broken, and the beasts swarmed in. Suddenly, there were howls everywhere, broken limbs were everywhere, and blood flowed like a river.
In an instant, only the ruins of a city remained.
Over the dense forest.
The five Yuan and Qing people had escaped for more than ten miles, followed by more than a dozen two-foot-long demon wolves, three-foot-long red snakes, several three-foot-long demon wolves, several eight-foot-long fire pythons, several large green-winged birds, and a small civet cat beast.
Suddenly, the sword light deflected, and Yuan Qing separated from the others and fled alone.
The demons behind them also separated, leaving behind a three-foot-long gray wolf, a fire python, several two-foot-long demon wolves, and several three-foot-long red snakes to continue chasing Wang Qing and others. The rest all rushed forward with a roar from the little beast. Xiang Yuanqing.
"Junior Brother Yuan!" Wang Qing yelled. Seeing that there was no response, he had no choice but to continue running away.
The moment the sword light deflected, Zhu Ling'er also jumped in the direction and escaped with Yuan Qing.
The five rainbow lights split into two waves, running in opposite directions, and soon each disappeared deep into the dense forest.
The breeze blew and the forest rustled, as if nothing had happened.
