Chapter 78 Monsters Divide
One after another, the monsters rushed towards the city wall with the water flow, and crashed into the city wall without hesitation. Waves of iron arrows and boulders fell from the sky, and fierce roars were heard, and bodies were injured and fell.
But the number of monsters was too large. Mortals were weak. It took 20 or 30 mortals to throw a stone, and they were not accurate. Those turtle monsters and crabs with hard shells could not die even if they resisted. In an instant, the formation dimmed a lot.
Wang Hao hurriedly sent out spells to resist, and used half of his true energy to condense thousands of fire feathers behind him. He shouted and shot them like sharp arrows.
Those mortals were helpless. The hard-shelled monsters were easily shot through by Wang Hao's fire feathers. If they were hit by two or three, they would be disabled if not dead.
The water surface of the several miles along the north wall of Linghu City has become a meat-grinding field, with blood dyeing the lake red. The roar of monsters is mixed in the sound of water, and the roar of monsters resounds throughout the entire Linghu City.
The young and strong men in the city have been transferred to the city wall, and the rest are the old and weak. Even if they hide in the cellar, they can still hear the residual cries of monsters. Some children can't help crying and shouting. Suddenly, the crying in the city and the wailing outside the city are intertwined. Some old women also kneel in front of the ranking of the ancestors of the Wang family, comforting the children in their arms and praying silently...
This battle lasted from dusk to late at night, and then to dawn. As the sun rose, the vision gradually became clear. Seeing that the high-level monsters could not break through the city wall in a short time, they roared a few times, and the monsters on the battlefield began to retreat!
Aquatic monsters are still afraid of sunlight, especially when they are about to come out of the water to attack the city wall. The sun shines directly on their skin. If it lasts for a long time, they will not only be injured, but also be depressed. This is due to their nature. Low-level monsters cannot resist it.
"The lake water has receded, look, the lake water has receded!" A mortal shouted excitedly.
"We won, we survived!" Others cheered.
Wang Hao did not stop them. After fighting all night, he should let them have some fun. He was a mortal and knew the suffering of mortals. With a mortal body, he fought at a high intensity all night. Many weak ones were tired and vomited blood!
Wang Longling stepped forward and said, "Elder, should we organize some people to collect some arrows and monster corpses outside? The meat warehouse of these low-level monsters can't hold them, but they can be distributed to mortals as food, which can enhance their physical fitness and benefit the next battle!"
Wang Hao didn't think of these, and nodded in agreement: "You are familiar with these, you arrange them, but you must pay attention to safety. Wenmei, you take a few monks to guard from a distance to prevent the remaining monsters from killing mortals!"
"Yes, elder!"
Although the lake water has receded, the ground has been pitted by the battle, and it is muddy everywhere, which is not easy to clean up, but these things are not difficult for mortals. They either build wooden boards or pile up raw soil, and build simple roads in less than an hour.
Wang Wenmei and others first swept around the battlefield, completely killed those monsters that were still breathing, and stood on the periphery for alert. Mortals went out of the city on a large scale to start cleaning the battlefield!
The monster rebellion only occurs once every hundred years, and some mortals will never see it in their lifetime. The mortals in Linghu City are lucky and unfortunate. Fortunately, they can get a lot of monster meat. Eating it can not only prolong life and strengthen the body, but also increase the probability of spiritual roots in their offspring.
Mortals who practice martial arts can also use the medicinal power of monster meat to temper their bodies and achieve the purpose of improvement.
Unfortunately, many people will be exhausted and their lifespans will be greatly reduced after this beast tide. Monster meat can't make up for it. Some even don't survive this beast tide. Although they can't enjoy the benefits, they will leave a legacy to future generations. The offspring nourished by monster meat will be much stronger than ordinary mortals even if they don't have spiritual roots.
"Ah! Master Immortal, save me!" A mortal covered his arm and screamed. In his hand, he held a glowing monster tooth!
Wang Wenmei quickly went to check the situation and found that the man was already black and blue all over, and he was breathing out more than breathing in. In this case, a detoxification pill can solve the problem, but the detoxification pill is also worth five low-grade spirit stones. How can she bear to give it to a mortal? She could only shake her head helplessly: "This man is hopeless. Didn't I tell you not to touch the teeth of monsters with your hands, especially those of water snakes! They are all poisonous!"
With this example, there are many rules for mortals cleaning the battlefield. They only use tools to clean up monsters and never dare to touch them with their hands. The monks will also cut some large monsters with magic tools to facilitate mortal transportation.
Wang Hao also picked up a few monsters and left them for Xiaobai and Yaya to eat.
In this battle, the monsters lost 30% of low-level monsters and three second-level monsters. It is estimated that they will have to rest for a while in the future. Wang Hao and others also took the time to recover!
In a blink of an eye, another half month passed, and the Qingyuan Sect received news again. The Golden Lion Demon King's attack was not smooth, and hundreds of thousands of demon beasts were still blocked outside the formation. Of course, the Qingyuan Sect was not feeling well. The spiritual veins that supplied the formation almost couldn't hold on several times, and they barely survived by filling it with accumulated spiritual stones.
In order to relieve the pressure on the formation, the Qingyuan Sect also sent teams to fight the demon beasts several times. Both sides suffered losses. It is said that a Jindan ancestor was injured, and other foundation-building Qi training disciples suffered countless injuries.
But in any case, they still defended it. The Golden Lion Demon King could not allow something to happen without gaining anything, which would be detrimental to its future rule over the beasts. On the one hand, he continued to besiege the Qingyuan Sect with the main force, and at the same time ordered several third-level inferior demon beasts to lead 100,000 demon beasts to sweep the Qingyuan Sect's forces.
Qingyuan Sect was naturally happy with this, so they held a stalemate with the Golden Lion Demon King and ignored the other two demon beast teams, but they still notified the forces below. If they did not notify, these affiliated families would be disunited from then on!
These 100,000 demon beasts were divided into two teams, one advancing east and the other west, and one of the teams was heading for Qingniufang City.
Originally, the pressure of the beast tide in the Qingniufang City area was not great. Several battlefields were not victorious, but they were as stable as Mount Tai. However, once they were targeted by a team led by a third-level demon beast, they would be dead. Many cultivators had the idea of escaping.
Fortunately, the Qingyuan Mountain is tall and it is not easy for those demon beasts to turn over. Without the restraint of the Golden Lion Demon King, many of them were lost in the vast mountains. When they appeared again, they had been reduced to more than 30,000.
Not long ago, another good news came. This demon beast army was divided again. Only a third-level inferior wolf king led less than 20,000 low-level demon beasts to the Qingniufang City area! In addition, they lost their way along the way, and when they were about to reach the Qingniufang area, there were less than 15,000 of them. This gave the five major families hope to defend Qingniufang, so they summoned monks again to strengthen the defense.
The original intention of the establishment of Qingniufang City was to resist monsters.
This location just blocked most of the five major families behind. If the monsters did not pass through Qingniufang, they would have to cross several mountains, and their power would continue to dissipate. The third-level monsters, whose wisdom was not inferior to that of ordinary people, would naturally not do this.
In Qingniufang City, Lei Liheng, the head of the Lei family, showed a solemn expression. He couldn't help looking at the two heads of the family in front of him and said solemnly.
"Two Taoist friends, the monsters are now less than five days away from Qingniufang City. What should we do next?"
