Chapter 1393: The Beast Tide is Coming

When Li Mo returned to the cave, he saw that there was no one inside. He carefully inspected the cave, and there was no sign of a fight, and his heart was reassured.

The next morning, Li Mo, who had been waiting all night, left abruptly.

It was already noon when Li Mo returned to Gale City, Shen Qing was already impatient, and when he saw Li Mo coming back, his face was still a little haggard, and he stared at Li Mo for a long time with bad intentions, and finally provoked Li Mo to get angry before stopping.

After lunch, Li Mo told Shen Qing what happened last night, the little fat man shouted that it was a pity, he missed so many wonderful things, Li Mo couldn't help but be speechless, this little fat man is really afraid that the world will not be chaotic.

Li Mo and Shen Qing stayed in Gale City for another half a month, and during this time, the two of them had been cultivating. The two of them are like-minded, but they don't feel bored, and after cultivating, the relationship between the two has become more and more cordial. Although the little fat man Shen Qing was born rich and has a somewhat ruthless personality, that is only for the enemy. In fact, he is not bad-hearted, especially for his friends, and he is a good person. Shen Qing also felt that Li Moren was very realistic, had his own opinions, did not tend to be inflammatory, and treated his friends very righteously.

What happened during this time made the two of them realize that improving their self-cultivation is the king. Especially Shen Qing, as the young master of the Four Seas Business Alliance, had never encountered real danger before, so he didn't cultivate very hard, but now he was very hard. Li Mo is even more aware of the importance of strength, so the two of them practice very hard, and they can also exchange their cultivation experience from time to time.

Not only that, Li Mo heard a lot of things about the Northern Barbarian Realm from Shen Qing, such as the distribution of major forces, the rankings of various sects, and some anecdotes, and he really gained a lot. Shen Qing also learned a lot from Li Mo, and both of them felt that they had gained a lot.

During this time, Li Mo experienced many life and death moments, and he also had a lot of comprehension in his cultivation, and more importantly, his state of mind matured a lot, which was very helpful for his future cultivation.

Half a month later, Li Mo was already only one step away from the late stage of the True Yuan Realm, and Shen Qing had advanced to the middle stage of the Condensing Vein Realm, which was exactly three full months before the day when the Drifting Ice Palace accepted disciples.

The time was not very sufficient, and they were no longer allowed to cultivate slowly, so Li Mo and Shen Qing discussed it and set off towards the Extreme North Ice Field.

The rest of the journey was fine, the two of them cultivated while hurrying, and a month later, the two arrived at Meteorite City, which is the northernmost city of the barbarians, and it is also the last stop for Li Mo and Shen Qing in the Heavenly Barbarian Wilderness, after which they will step into the Extreme North Ice Field. At this time, Li Mo was already in the late stage of the True Yuan Realm, and Shen Qing was still in the middle stage of the Condensation Realm.

Meteor City is surrounded by a primeval jungle of beasts, and few other tribes exist. The ruler of Meteorite City is the barbarian Tianyue Division, and the patriarch of the Moon Division today is called Moon Red Night, who is a monk in the late stage of the Pulp Washing Realm, known as the Red Leaf Fairy. Meteorite City is a small city controlled by the Heavenly Moon Ministry, and the city lord is called Yue Yaoguang. Meteorite City gets its name from the fact that it is rich in a special mineral called Meteorite Iron, which is a precious refining material. Meteorite City is located on the edge of the Arctic Ice Field, with a bitter cold climate and a lack of products, so the scale is not large. Tianyue City is divided into an inner city and an outer city, the inner city is mainly the people of the Tianyue clan, and the outer city is the population from outside. There are not many outsiders in Falling Star City, but most of them are monks, including barbarian monks and monks from the Northern Xuan Continent. Some of these monks came out to practice, and some went to the Arctic Ice Plain to find heavenly treasures, as for whether they went to the Drift Ice Palace to apprentice like Li Mo and the others, Li Mo didn't know, but these monks' cultivation was not weak, the lowest was in the early stage of the True Yuan Realm, and the highest was unknown.

Li Mo and Shen Qing found an inn to live in the outer city, preparing to rest for a few days and replenish some necessities before heading to the Drift Ice Palace.

Three days later, in the early morning, Li Mo and Shen Qing left the inn and headed towards the North City Gate, where they prepared to leave Meteorite City and head to the Arctic Ice Field. When the two arrived at the city gate, the city gate that should have been open was still closed, and not only that, but the soldiers under the city gate were waiting for each other, looking like they were facing a great enemy.

At this time, a group of monks who were ready to leave the city had gathered under the city gate, about a hundred and ten people, most of them with puzzled eyes, obviously not knowing what was happening.

"Why don't you let us out of the city, Uncle still has a lot of things to do", a rough-faced man shouted impatiently. "That's it, that's it, we're still in a hurry," someone chimed in.

Just when everyone was waiting impatiently, a black-armored warrior appeared, this warrior was a middle-aged man, his appearance was very rough, and his cultivation was probably in the late stage of the True Yuan Realm. The black-armored warrior glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Fellow Daoists, welcome to Falling Star City, in Xia Sun Kai, now Falling Star City has encountered a beast tide once in decades, and now Falling Star City is surrounded by all kinds of demon beasts, and water can't splash in. According to the investigation, those friends who went out of the city yesterday all encountered the beast tide to varying degrees, and there were 12 out of 10 alive, for the sake of safety, I hope that all friends and my Tianyue Department will work together to tide over this difficulty!" Glancing at everyone, Sun Kai continued: "The scale of the beast tide this time is very large, and I hope that all friends will do their best, this is not only to protect my Meteorite City, but also to your own safety, okay, friends, please follow me to the city wall!"

Li Mo and Shen Qing glanced at each other, feeling quite helpless in their hearts, they actually encountered the beast tide before leaving, which was really not beautiful. But the two of them encountered the beast tide for the first time, and they were also very interested in it, and they wanted to see it, and they said that it was not enough to be afraid, and the monks were full of risks all the time, and they could be called listed and brained. After all, there are risks to be gained.

At this time, a big-eared monk said loudly: "What Commander Sun said is extremely true, if we let that group of beasts attack the city, we will all be in trouble, everyone must do their best, Brother Sun, don't worry, I, Du Shan, will never shirk!" This Du Shan is a monk in the late stage of the Condensation Realm. Among this group of monks, the cultivation is relatively high, and as soon as he started, the other monks also echoed him, expressing their willingness to contribute. Sun Kai nodded with satisfaction and led a group of monks up the city wall. But there are also some monks who are silent, looking like they are out of the way, and their cultivation Li Mo can't feel it. According to Li Mo's prediction, more than eighty percent of them are old monsters who have succeeded in Kailing.

Perhaps because of the frequent encounters with beast tides, the walls of Meteorite City were built quite solidly and tall, and when Li Mo and the others arrived at the city wall, they saw that there were already rows of soldiers on the wide city wall, and these soldiers were probably in the late stage of body refining.

Sun Kai and a group of monks did not stop on the city wall, but walked straight to the city gate tower, and arrived at the city tower in a few breaths. I saw that in addition to some ordinary soldiers on the city tower, there were four men and one woman, the woman was a middle-aged beautiful woman, dressed in green clothes, and her demeanor was graceful. Behind the middle-aged beauty are four old men with white beards. This middle-aged beautiful woman and the four old men Li Mo couldn't find out their cultivation, but they gave people a feeling of extreme danger, obviously above the Enlightenment Realm. Generally speaking, a monk can roughly judge the cultivation of other monks when he senses the breath of other monks, but he cannot tell if the two sides are too far apart or if the other party uses means to conceal his cultivation. With Li Mo's current realm, at most, he could only judge the aura of the Enlightened Spirit Realm. The middle-aged beauty and the four old men obviously didn't have the slightest intention of hiding their cultivation, because Li Mo could feel their terrifying aura.

As Li Mo expected, the four old men were all monks in the middle stage of the Enlightenment Realm, and Yue Yaoguang was in the early stage of the Yuan Dan Realm.

Sun Kai bowed to the middle-aged beauty and the old man and stepped aside, the middle-aged beauty looked at everyone, then smiled slightly, and said, "You fellow Daoists are polite, the concubine is the city lord of this Meteorite City, Yue Yaoguang!" The voice was soft, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze.

"It turned out to be Yue Yaoguang, this is the city lord of Meteorite City, the patriarch of the Tianyue Department of the Desolate Clan, and the great monk of the Yuan Dan Realm!" Hearing Yue Yaoguang's three words, the people below immediately exploded. "It turned out to be Yaoguang Fairy Yue Yaoguang, then this beast tide is not trivial!" "It is worthy of being a monk of the Yuandan Realm, and his bearing is really different, look, those four are the four elders of the Tianyue Department, and it is said that they are also monks of the Enlightening Realm!" "Yaoguang Fairy really lives up to her reputation, look at her, I am ......willing to die under this beast tide" "Get out, old pervert, uncle, I don't want to die, it doesn't matter if he is a beast tide or a human tide, as long as he dares to stand in front of Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is welcome!"

An elder behind Yue Yaoguang saw that everyone was talking non-stop, he was impatient, and coughed lightly, everyone only felt that their ears were swollen and roaring, and they all stopped involuntarily, and there was a sudden silence in the field.

Yue Yaoguang smiled slightly, arched his hand to everyone, and said: "Sun Kai has already told you the general story of the matter, this requires everyone to be in the same boat, thank you for helping us fight against the beast tide."

All the monks were flattered, and they all said that the Moon City Lord was really polite. After the greetings, Yue Yaoguang said: "The situation is critical, the concubine is no longer polite, now I will assign tasks to everyone!" After that, he pointed to one of the four old men with a hunchback: "This is Yue Han, the great elder of my clan, please ask the Taoist friends of the Yuan Dan Realm to follow him to the south city gate." Then he pointed to the old man with a slightly yellow face and said, "This is Yue Chang, the second elder of my clan, please open the spiritual realm and follow him to the West City Gate." Then he pointed to the tallest old man and said, "This is Yue Feng, the third elder of my clan, please ask the Daoist friends of the Condensation Realm to follow him to the East City Gate." Then he pointed to the last red-faced old man: "The remaining Daoists are in this north gate with the concubine of the fourth elder Yuekun. ”

Chapter 1394: In the midst of a fierce battle

Everyone had no objection to Yue Yaoguang's arrangement, and the four elders led monks from various realms to their city gate. Because of the Condensation Realm, Shen Qing followed the Third Elder Yue Feng to the East City Gate, while Li Mo stayed at the North City Gate, and the two were temporarily separated.

Yue Kun glanced at the remaining monks and said lightly: "Please also ask all fellow Daoists and all the warriors of our clan to guard this city wall together." It seems that Li Mo, a low-level cultivator of the True Yuan Realm, was used as a soldier, and all the monks were angry, but no one stood up to protest.

Li Mo didn't have anything in his heart, in the monk world, strength is always the most important, if you want others to respect you, you must have the corresponding strength. Li Mo and the monks scattered towards the city walls on both sides of the tower.

Looking down from the city walls, I saw that the city was full of all kinds of wild beasts. There are tigers with fangs, giant cyan wolves, leopards covered in scales, and vultures hovering in the air, but the most palpitating are the giant apes in the middle. The group of giant apes had five heads, and they were tall and hideous, and they looked creepy. Around them, all kinds of beasts were divided into several parts in an orderly manner, and animals of the same kind gathered together as if they were well-trained soldiers.

"It turned out to be a third-level spirit beast Mighty Ape!" Sun Kai came to Li Mo's side at some point, and said in a deep voice. Li Mo was also shocked in his heart, a third-level spirit beast, which is equivalent to the late stage of the human spirit realm.

At this moment, only the roar of the mighty apes was heard, and then the many beasts began to run wildly towards the city wall. First of all, the kind of leopard covered with scales, called the iron-scaled leopard, I saw that its claws were also a few points more slender than ordinary leopards, its two hind legs kicked the ground, and it was a foot high, and then the two front paws were like nails, firmly embedded in the city wall, and then flexibly climbed upward. And the vultures, who had long been unable to hold back, swept towards the city walls as if they had seen a supreme delicacy, their claws like hooks, shining with a faint light, while the beasts that were not good at climbing slammed into the city gate as if they were desperate.

After giving the order to attack, the five giant apes bent down to pick up the large stones beside them, and then stretched out their long arms, and several large stones roared towards the city as if they had been fired by trebuchets.

Seeing that these beasts began to attack, Li Mo and the other monks who had just arrived were all shocked, and the soldiers beside them quickly erected their shields to block the sky above everyone, obviously quite experienced in how to deal with this kind of attack, but the soldiers' cultivation was too low, and they could withstand the first few waves, and then they showed some difficulty.

At this moment, a white light curtain suddenly rose around Li Mo, a radius of several zhang, which could cover this section of the city wall, Li Mo turned around and saw that it was the shield released by Sun Kai. The huge boulders bounced off the shield, and some fell under the city, injuring some of the beasts and causing the soldiers to cheer.

Li Mo looked around, and saw that there was a shield like this every other distance, presumably there was a monk like Sun Kai on every section of the city wall. Yue Yaoguang was still standing on top of the city tower, and she didn't know what to say to Yue Kun, obviously the battle in the early stage was not worth her attention.

At this moment, the iron-scaled leopard had already rushed to the head of the city, and the cloud vulture was also hovering over the city wall, waiting for the opportunity to attack, they were all fourth-level demon beasts. Because of the protection of the shield, the soldiers and monks on the wall could attack without fear, some of the soldiers raised their spears to stab the iron-scaled leopards on the wall from the wall, and some bent their bows and arrows to shoot the vultures down. All of a sudden, blood splattered everywhere, making people's blood boil.

After a cup of tea, a terrifying roar was heard from the mighty ape, and then the iron-scaled leopard and the vulture retreated like a tide, and the other beasts stopped attacking. I saw that the city wall was covered with scarlet blood, which made people feel sick to smell. Li Mo also slashed and killed many demon beasts at this time, the Snow Moon scimitar in his hand was already stained with blood, and the small mark behind Li Mo actually killed an injured iron-scaled leopard. Since Xiao Zhen ate that mysterious bone in the Fog Hidden Swamp, his growth rate has accelerated, and now Li Mo can't hold it anymore, so he can only let it follow behind him.

After the beast's offensive stopped temporarily, Sun Kai and the others also put away the shield. Everyone was silent, busy recovering their strength. Only Xiao Trace kept tearing between the corpses of the iron-scaled leopard, and actually found some dragon-sized crystals from the bodies of some iron-scaled leopards. After finding it, Xiao Scar swallowed it in one gulp, as if he was eating something delicious.

Li Mo was taken aback, and wanted to stop Xiao Ji, at this time Sun Kai said lightly: "These crystals are the essence core of demon beasts, which are generally only found in the body of demon beasts above level six, and the body of demon beasts below level six is relatively rare, the essence core is similar to the spirit stone, and they all contain aura, but the aura in the essence core is relatively special, and generally only beasts can directly absorb it, so the essence core is generally used for refining tools and alchemy, since you, the little wolf, can directly devour these essence cores, it must not be a bad thing." ”

Li Mo nodded, and no longer blocked Xiao Ji, and at this moment, the five giant apes roared again, and the second wave of attack began!

Unlike the first wave of attacks, the five Mighty Apes in the second wave of attacks took matters into their own hands.

I saw that the five powerful apes all had "weapons" in their hands, some were big stones picked up on the ground, some were big trees pulled out from the surroundings, and even more, a strong ape actually grabbed a tiger with fangs at hand as a weapon, this tiger is called a fierce tooth tiger, which is a sixth-level demon beast. In the same way, these five powerful apes are extremely tyrannical, and their eyes are full of fierceness and terrifying.

The five mighty apes strode towards the city gates, grabbing their weapons, and behind them groups of beasts moved slowly, like an endless tide.

"They are going to destroy the city gates!" Sun Kai's face changed and he said. He gritted his teeth and said loudly: "Come on a few black armor guards, go down with me, you can't let them destroy the city gate!"

In a few breaths, the five mighty apes had already reached the city gate, and they roared in unison and rushed towards the city gate, and at the same time, the beasts behind them also began to attack!

"Boom", everyone on the city wall felt a shock under their feet, the strong apes had already hit the city gate, the strength of this strong ape was really terrifying!

But it also ended here, because the black-armored guards led by Sun Kai had already entangled these five powerful apes. In addition to Sun Kai, there were also five black-armored guards who went down, and Sun Kai's cultivation was barely able to withstand a strong ape in the late stage of the Spirit Realm. The other five black-armored guards had slightly lower cultivation levels, most of them were in the middle of the Condensation Realm, and one was even in the early stage of the Spirit Realm, but this was already the only Spirit Realm cultivator in the North City Gate.

At this time, the situation was extremely grim, but Li Mo and the others were not very panicked in their hearts, because the city lord of Falling Star City, Yue Yaoguang, and the fourth elder Yue Kun had not yet moved! With the unfathomable cultivation of the two of them, it should not be difficult to solve the five strong apes, but for some reason, the two of them remained motionless, as if they were waiting for something.

At this time, the iron-scaled leopard and the cloud vulture surged onto the wall again, but this time without the protection of the shield. Li Mo and the other Ning Yuan Realm cultivators were okay, and those soldiers of the Body Refining Realm were much sadder, they were okay at the beginning, several people cooperated together to kill and injure many demon beasts, but after a long time, they were scattered, and the damage began to slowly become larger.

Xiao Ji followed behind Li Mo, and specially selected those demon beasts that had been injured by Li Mo to attack, one person and one wolf actually cooperated very tacitly, Li Mo couldn't help but sigh that Xiao Ji had really grown up. But when Li Mo injured a cloud vulture and waited for Xiao Zhen to go up and make up for a claw, Xiao Zhen was busy swallowing * nuclear and did not cooperate with the consciousness at all, and Li Mo was almost injured by the dying and struggling cloud vulture, Li Mo couldn't help but sigh that a foodie is a foodie after all.

More and more demon beasts poured onto the city walls, the soldiers on the city walls suffered more and more losses, and the monks began to suffer casualties. Yue Yaoguang and Yue Kun still didn't make a move, and the demon beasts on the city wall seemed to be intimidated by their momentum, and they even bypassed them from afar.

At this time, Sun Kai and the five Condensation Realm monks under the city were in an increasingly critical situation, Sun Kai's spiritual weapon was called the Liangyi Ring, which was two white rings, and it was a pair of medium-grade weapons. Under Sun Kai's manipulation, the pair of Liangyi rings continued to fly as if they had life, protecting Sun Kai firmly. But that's all, although Sun Kai is safe and sound, he can't kill the strong ape he is fighting against, and the strong ape is notoriously powerful, thick-skinned, and has a low IQ. Sun Kai had no choice but to lure the mighty ape away from the city gate on the one hand, and kill and injure the demon beasts around him on the other.

But the other five black-armored guards were in a predicament, they were facing four powerful apes equivalent to the late stage of the human spirit realm, and the spiritual weapons used by the five people were all black spears, all of which were low-grade spiritual weapons. The five of them are black armor guards, and they usually practice the technique of combined attack coordination, so they can resist until now, but they have been defeated and retreated, and obviously they can't resist for too long.

The battle on the city wall also entered a white-hot stage at this time, and the soldiers were almost dead and wounded, and the main force at this time, Li Mo and more than a dozen foreign monks. Li Mo waved the Snow Moon scimitar in his hand, slashed a snow vulture, and then sideways dodged the sharp claws of an iron-scaled leopard, staggering under his feet, the true yuan in his body had been basically exhausted, but the demon beasts still seemed to be endless.

Li Mo looked around, and saw that these monks around him were also similar to himself, most of the true yuan was exhausted, and only a young man not far from him was calm and his face was as usual. This young man is about the same age as Li Mo, his appearance is ordinary, but he has a quiet temperament, his way of fighting is very special, the light around him flashed, it turned out to be a small magic circle, these demon beasts who entered the magic circle, their movements became sluggish, and they were easily killed by this young man.
