"Ye Xin, go to a few more small islands to set up formations. We will snipe the monsters on the small islands first, and then go to the big islands to snipe the monsters. Dao Jing, send people to build more caves and prepare more food. We don't know how long this beast tide will last. I hope fewer mortals will die. Ben Fu, take your people to refine more fasting pills for mortals to eat."
Han Zhangxiang instructed that the cost of refining the Bigu Pill was not high. The Han family had already purchased a batch, which would be enough to sustain the survival of 20,000 mortals for several months. If the beast tide lasted too long, no matter how many Bigu Pills there were, they would not be enough.
"Yes, Patriarch."
Han Daojing and others agreed in unison and each performed their duties.
In an open space covered with a lot of rubble, Han Duanzheng was directing his tribesmen to form a battle formation.
He was one of the first tribesmen to go to the outer sea. He has already established a foundation, married and had children. His wife and children have already moved to Haoran City.
Han Duanzheng is a formation master. Under the guidance of Han Daojing and Ye Xin, he is already able to set up a second-grade superior formation.
"Speed up and set up the formation quickly. The scale of the beast tide is huge. Only by setting up more formations can we kill more monsters."
Han Duanzheng urged, after decades of development, the Han family has accumulated a lot of wealth. When Han Debiao moved his people to Haoran City, he also purchased a batch of immortal cultivation resources to deal with this beast tide.
The beast tide is a calamity for most cultivators, but an opportunity for a few cultivators. There is only a fine line between crisis and opportunity; it all depends on your strength.
Three days passed quickly.
In the early morning, the sky was just getting light and the sea breeze was blowing.
Qinghulu Island, a towering mountain, Ye Xin, Han Benfu, Han Benyong, Liu Weiwei and Han Benzhi gathered in a stone pavilion on the top of the mountain.
Knowing that a beast tide was approaching, Liu Weiwei volunteered to follow the clan leader to fight against the demons in order to hone herself and improve her fighting experience.
A big reason why Han Changying and the other two failed to form the elixir was due to lack of training. Liu Weiwei took this as a warning. She had already cultivated to the late stage of foundation building and had fought life and death battles only a few times. Not to mention Han Benzhi, he was still in the middle stage of foundation building.
Han Benzhi didn't want to join the war, not because he was afraid of death, but because he knew his own limitations. He didn't have much experience in fighting, so he was more suitable to collect supplies in the rear. If Liu Weiwei hadn't wanted to join the war, he would have planned to stay in Haoran City to collect resources for cultivation, which could also be considered a contribution to the family. It didn't mean that every member of the family had to stay on the front line.
"If the monsters attack the island, you can just control the puppet beasts to fight them. Benfu, don't run too far. Keep an eye on Benyong and the others."
Ye Xin reminded them that this beast tide could serve as a test for them. Liu Weiwei and Han Benzhi had too little training, and comparatively speaking, Han Benyong had more experience in fighting.
"Yes, ma'am."
Han Benfu and others agreed in unison.
A deafening sound was heard, and a huge red fireball appeared in the sky, very conspicuous.
"The monster is attacking. Be alert and prepare for battle."
Ye Xin shouted loudly, with a solemn look on her face.
Tens of thousands of monsters flew towards Purple Moon Island, and there were more than thirty third-level monsters. From this point of view, the scale was far greater than the last beast tide.
After decades of development, Qinghulu Island has set up multiple sets of third-order formations, so it should have no problem holding out for a while.
There are so many monsters such as crabs, sea snakes, starfish, seals, seagulls, sea eagles, etc. that it makes people's scalp tingle.
It was the first time for Liu Weiwei, Han Benzhi and Han Benyong to encounter a large-scale beast tide, and they looked a little nervous.
"Second brother, third brother, sister-in-law, don't rush to the front line, just control the puppet beasts to kill the enemies, I will protect you."
Han Benfu reminded her. She was also a little nervous, as she had not encountered a large-scale beast tide.
Countless yellow mists suddenly emerged from Qinghulu Island. After a blur, they turned into an ochre-colored light curtain, covering the entire island.
roar!
Before the monsters landed on the island, they made all kinds of noises and cast all kinds of spells towards Qinghulu Island.
Dense spells fell on the khaki light curtain, and a muffled sound of frying beans was heard.
Ye Xin opened some of the restrictions of the island protection formation and let some low-level monsters in.
Hundreds of low-level monsters rushed onto Qinghulu Island, most of them were second-level monsters, and the first-level monsters were all killed or injured at the outermost area.
"Do it."
At Ye Xin's command, the tribesmen summoned their controlled puppet beasts to attack the monsters.
Han Duanzheng cast several spells into a small and exquisite yellow array plate. A dazzling yellow light flashed across the surface of the array plate, and the ground shook violently. Pieces of yellow stones flew up, floating in the air, and smashed towards the monsters that had landed on the island.
At the same time, more than 30 humanoid puppet beasts released spells to attack these monsters.
The colorful magical light engulfed hundreds of monsters. Some of the wounded monsters were killed on the spot, but the number of casualties was relatively small.
Han Benyong and his companions were dozens of miles away from the monsters. A no-fly ban was set up on the island, so these low-level monsters could not fly, and low-level monster birds could not fly when they landed on the island.
At first there were only a few hundred of them, but soon they became thousands, and alarms sounded on the island.
Fortunately, they moved away the women, children, the elderly and the weak on the island in time, and settled the mortals in the caves. As long as the monsters did not break through the defenses of the caves, there would not be too many casualties among the mortals.
The third-level monsters were not in a hurry to attack Qinghulu Island, but instead let the second-level monsters attack Qinghulu Island.
Ye Xin and Han Benfu did not take action either, but kept a close eye on the third-level monsters to prevent them from launching sudden attacks.
The monsters were very fast. Thousands of them rushed into a dense green bamboo forest. There were a lot of green bamboos growing in the forest. The monsters' huge bodies directly broke the green bamboos.
Suddenly, green thorns as thick as an adult's arm emerged from the ground. The surface of the green thorns was covered with sharp thorns and entangled the body of the monster. There were too many green thorns. The monster wanted to break free, but there were too many green thorns and it was impossible for it to break free from all of them.
A large number of monsters were entangled by the green thorns, and they released spells to attack the green thorns. Fire and lightning spells were okay, but the effects of other spells were not very good.
Suddenly, spots of yellow light appeared in the void and turned into huge yellow rocks, smashing towards the monsters on the ground.
The ground suddenly turned red, and a large area of red flames emerged. The billowing flames engulfed some low-level monsters. These monsters made all kinds of roars, and the green thorns on their bodies were burned off. They ran around and bumped into their companions.
In an instant, the green bamboo forest turned into a sea of red fire, and hundreds of monsters were swallowed up by the sea of fire.
These monsters wanted to rush out of the sea of fire, the ground shook violently, and yellow earth walls broke out of the ground, blocking their way.
The yellow earth wall flashed with golden light and then suddenly turned golden.
The Five Elements Demon-Slaying Formation is a second-level superior formation that can cast five elements spells to attack demon beasts.
Without the help of external objects, a foundation-building cultivator can at most deal with three second-level monsters at the same time. If there is a formation, he can deal with ten second-level monsters. Of course, whether he can kill them depends on the grade of the formation.
Han Benyong and ten other foundation-building monks controlled this formation, and it was no problem to kill dozens of second-level monsters.
Other monsters released spells one after another to attack the golden wall. The dense spells hit the golden wall as if it were hitting a wall of iron and steel.
There were too many monsters. Hundreds of second-level monsters attacked the formation. The formation plates in the hands of Han Benyong and others made loud sounds and flashed with spiritual light.
"Increase your strength and hold on for a while longer. The monster trapped in the formation is about to die."
Han Benyong shouted loudly.
With a "click", a tiny crack appeared on the formation plate in his hand.
At this moment, a deafening roar suddenly came from the sky, and a huge red fire cloud appeared in the sky without warning, emitting an astonishingly high temperature.
The red fire cloud fell quickly, and the monsters felt the astonishingly high temperature it emitted and tried to avoid it. However, countless green thorns suddenly emerged from the ground and entangled the limbs of some monsters.
The red fire cloud hit some low-level monsters and exploded instantly.
Boom!
With a deafening roar, billowing flames engulfed hundreds of low-level monsters.
Han Benfu held a red flag about ten feet long with a large red flame on it.
At this time, the third-level monsters also took action. Dozens of third-level monsters released spells at the same time and attacked Qinghulu Island.
Seeing the dense array of spells coming at her, Ye Xin's face darkened and she summoned the Mysterious Ice Banner. With a light shake, cold air rushed out and transformed into thousands of three-inch-long white ice needles, rushing forward to meet the attack. Han Benfu waved the red banner and released billowing flames.
Boom!
A huge explosion sounded, and the roar continued. Their attacks were far inferior to those of dozens of third-level monsters, but they could still resist for now.
A sharp hissing sound was heard, and a giant silver eagle with a wingspan of five meters began to circle in the sky. Countless silver arcs of electricity emerged from its body surface, and a huge thundercloud appeared in the sky with lightning and thunder.
"Thunderstorm!"
Ye Xin's face turned ugly. This was a high-level spell, and its power was comparable to a full-strength attack from a top-grade magic weapon. If it was just to block the attack of this demon bird, there would be absolutely no problem. However, there were still dozens of third-level demon beasts and tens of thousands of low-level demon beasts.
There are too many third-level monsters, and even with the help of formations, we can’t hold them off for long.
"I'll lend you a hand, Ye Xin, you control the formation to fight the enemy."
Han Debiao's voice suddenly rang out. Ziyue Island was also attacked by monsters. The pressure was no less than that of Ziyue Island. However, considering that Han Benfu had not been in the Dan stage for long, Han Zhangxiang sent Han Debiao to help.
"Fifth uncle, why are you here? How are the clan leaders?"
Ye Xin frowned and said that she felt she was holding the family back.
"The clan leader and the others are doing well. You should control the formation to kill the low-level monsters as much as possible. Leave the third-level monsters to me. The clan leader said that if you can't win, retreat."
Han Debiao said loudly and flew out.
As soon as he flew out of Qinghulu Island, dense magic spells fell from the sky and hit Han Debiao.
Black gas emerged from Han Debiao's body and transformed into a thick black armor that protected his entire body. He grasped the Spirit-Breaking Stick tightly in both hands and began to swing it.
There was a sound of breaking wind that pierced the eardrums, and heavy shadows of sticks swept out, turning into an impenetrable red wind wall, blocking in front of him. All the dense spells were blocked by the wind wall.
"Benfu, you control the formation, and I'll go help Uncle Wu."
Ye Xin threw the formation plate to Han Benfu and flew out.
It is too dangerous for Han Debiao to fight against dozens of monsters alone.
Countless blue spots of light emerged around Ye Xin, transforming into two-foot-long blue water blades. She waved the Black Ice Banner, and cold air surged out. The blue water blades turned into white ice blades, emitting a biting chill.
A series of "hissing" sounds were heard, and hundreds of white ice blades shot out in all directions.
Han Benfu frowned. She knew she couldn't help, and taking good care of her people was the best way to help.
······
On Ziyue Island, thousands of monsters landed on the island. Han Zhangxiang was leading his people to kill the monsters, and Han Daojing was in charge of controlling the formation.
The third-level puppet beast rushed into the beast herd, charging around recklessly. Any monsters it hit were either killed or injured.
Han Changming returned to the inner sea to practice and left the third-level puppet beast to Han Zhangxiang, which came in handy. That is why Han Zhangxiang sent Han Debiao to Qinghulu Island to support Ye Xin.
"Chief, there are too many monsters. We can't hold out for long. Kill a few third-level monsters and then we can retreat!"
Han Daojing suggested that the scale of the beast tide was far beyond their imagination. Dozens of third-level monsters and tens of thousands of monsters attacked them. It would be good if they could survive.
The last beast tide had only a dozen third-level monsters, and there were many first-level low-level monsters. This time the beast tide was different, with dozens of monsters and tens of thousands of second-level monsters.
There was no way they could stop it, and it was not appropriate to escape immediately.
Han Zhangxiang also knew the seriousness of the problem, nodded and said: "Send someone to inform Ye Xin and the others to kill a few third-level monsters and then retreat. Arrange low-level cultivators to cover the retreat first."
The red dragon knife in his hand burst out with a dazzling red light and slashed towards a giant golden eagle that was swooping down.
A sharp sound of swords rang out, and hundreds of red sword auras swept out and slashed towards the golden giant eagle.
Han Changjiong, Han Changying and others controlled the formation and attacked the monsters.
There was a constant roar on Purple Moon Island, and all kinds of spiritual lights were shining.
A large number of monsters surrounded Ziyue Island and frantically attacked the monks on the island.
······
On an island millions of miles away, on a towering green mountain, a burly young man in a silver shirt and a young girl in a green skirt with picturesque features were talking to each other. The young man in the silver shirt had a pair of silver dragon horns on his head, and the surface of the dragon horns was filled with silver arcs of electricity. The girl in the green skirt had skin as white as snow, some golden spiritual patterns on her face, and her eyes were light gold.
The young man in silver shirt is called Jiao Shisan, the severely injured Bingfeng Jiao is his younger brother, and the girl in green skirt is called Feng Nishang, they are all in the late Nascent Soul stage.
"This time we must let the human race know how powerful we are. How dare you to plot against our Jiaolong clan? Humph, you are courting death."
Jiao Shisan's face was full of murderous intent.
The Jiaolong clan is the leader of the outer sea demon clans. Other demon clans have to look up to the Jiaolong clan. The human cultivators were so bold that they actually dared to attack a fourth-order Jiaolong.
Feng Nishang nodded and said, "Yes, we must teach them a lesson."
