This time the large-scale beast tide broke out suddenly, and the human race suffered heavy losses. Many disciples or relatives of the cultivators died at the hands of the monsters. Many small sects or families were destroyed by the monsters, and as many as four Nascent Soul cultivators died.
"If we don't repel the demons, we won't be able to escape. I heard that the other three major forces were also attacked by demon beasts. If the Divine Transformation cultivators from the Inner Sea or Zhongtian Continent come to support us, our pressure will be less."
Fairy Qianling sighed, her eyes full of worry.
The power of the human race in the outer sea may not be able to stop the demon race. You know, the demon race also launched such a large-scale beast tide more than ten thousand years ago, and the human race almost withdrew from the outer sea.
"With such a big incident, the inner sea monks must provide support. After all, the inner and outer seas are one. If we lose the outer sea, the interests of our human race will be damaged."
Han Zhangxiang changed his tone and said, "What I'm curious about is why the demon tribe launched such a large-scale war? You know, in the war hundreds of years ago, the demon tribe suffered a great loss and lost a lot of territory."
Could it be that the demons had received reinforcements and attacked the humans? Or was it that the humans suffered casualties among their gods and the demons took the opportunity to attack. Regardless of which one it was, the demons must have some ulterior motive in starting a war.
Fairy Qianling and others nodded. They could naturally see that the demon clan must have some plan.
"By the way, Fellow Daoist Han, your nephew hasn't come out yet? He hasn't shown up for hundreds of years."
The old man in red robe asked in confusion, he was talking about Han Changming.
Han Changming had become famous back then, and everyone thought he would advance to the Nascent Soul stage, but he later disappeared. If he hadn't advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, he would have passed away long ago!
"Yes! The demon tribe is invading, and Fellow Daoist Han is still in seclusion?"
Fairy Qianling was full of curiosity. The Han family had always announced to the public that Han Changming was practicing in seclusion, but according to the time calculation, if Han Changming had not entered the Nascent Soul stage, he would have already passed away.
Even if Han Changming advances to the Nascent Soul stage, there is no need for him to avoid seeing outsiders! No one has seen Han Changming in these years.
Han Changming is Ling Xiao Zhenren's disciple. With Ling Xiao Zhenren's support, even if he provokes a powerful enemy, he will not be afraid to show up! If he had provoked the God of Transformation, the Han family would have been destroyed long ago.
"Changming has been missing for many years and is trapped in the Immortal Burial Ruins."
Han Zhangxiang sighed and made up a lie.
If we say that Han Changming has passed away, it will not be of any benefit to the Han family, and there is no need to say so. But if we say that Han Changming is practicing in seclusion and the demon tribe is invading, it will be troublesome if he is named by Zhao Qiankun.
The best outcome is that Han Changming is still alive, has advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, and is trapped in the Immortal Burial Ruins.
In this case, those who want to deal with the Han family’s forces have to consider the existence of Han Changming. Han Changming does not need to show up in this battle.
Fairy Qianling and others were half-believing and half-doubting. Any force that had a Nascent Soul cultivator would show up, even if they didn't hold a celebration, to let other forces know.
If Han Changming had advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, why had he never appeared
Could it be that Han Zhangxiang was deliberately creating confusion to make the enemy fearful? That shouldn't be the case! Ling Xiao Zhenren, Shen Qinghuan, and Fairy Qinglian were all Yuanying cultivators, and Han Benfu had also entered the Yuanying stage. Whether there was a Yuanying cultivator or not didn't make much of a difference.
They couldn't figure out the reason, so they didn't want to think about it anymore.
Just then, there was a huge roar and the alarm sounded.
"Oh no, the monster is coming to kill us."
Han Zhangxiang's face changed. He jumped high into the sky, looked outside the island, and couldn't help but gasp.
Millions of monsters rushed towards Tianshu Island, including both monsters and monster birds. Unlike previous beast tides, there were a large number of half-demons leading the troops.
Half-demons are the offspring of human cultivators and shapeshifting demons. They are born in human form, half human, half demon. Half-demons are even more hostile to humans and are a major tool for the demon race to control their territory.
The monsters are arranged in uniform order according to their attributes, and their destructive power is even greater.
A group of giant crabs covered in red gathered together and moved quickly towards Tianshu Island. Behind them were sea lions, shrimps, seals, etc. These monsters did not attack Tianshu Island without authorization and were waiting for orders.
The team was led by four men and one woman, all of whom were half-demons. The leader was a burly young man in a golden shirt, with a golden horn on his head and some golden scales on his arms and face.
Jiao Xin, whose parents are both half-demons, has the blood of a dragon and is in the late Nascent Soul stage.
In addition to the five half-demons in the Nascent Soul stage, there are more than fifty fourth-level monsters, tens of thousands of third-level monsters, and the remaining monsters are below level three.
On the other hand, among the human race, there are more than 30,000 cultivators, seven Nascent Soul cultivators, more than 300 Core Formation cultivators, and the rest are below the Core Formation stage.
The Righteous Alliance used seven islands as the core of the formation and arranged a fifth-level formation, the Seven-Star Demon-Defending Formation. Tianshu Island was the core of the formation. If the demons broke through this core, they could tear open a hole and kill their way to Haoran City.
The alarm sounded loudly on the island, and a large number of cultivators flew to the city wall. Han Zhangxiang and seven other Nascent Soul cultivators personally went to the city wall. The cultivators returned to their respective residences and acted according to the instructions.
A water-blue light curtain appeared out of nowhere, covering the entire city. Outside the city was an open area.
"Fellow Daoist Han, Fairy Luo, and Fellow Daoist Lin, you lead your men to meet the enemy. I will cooperate with you. We must capture the leader first and kill Jiao Xin first."
An old man in a blue robe with a ruddy face said in a deep voice. The old man in the blue robe had regular features and majestic eyes, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
Liu Qingsong, who is in the late Nascent Soul stage, is in charge of Tianshu Island. Han Zhangxiang and others must obey his orders.
Han Zhangxiang and the other two agreed with serious expressions.
Jiao Xin took out a golden battle flag, waved it gently, and said in a deep voice: "Kill them all, leave no one alive."
As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of half-demons gave orders to the monsters, making various roars.
The monsters began to cast spells to attack the human race. The first-level monsters were the first to rush to Tianshu Island and headed straight for Tianshu City.
The first-level monster had just approached Tianshu Island for ten miles when the ground suddenly shook violently and countless yellow mists emerged. They suddenly condensed and turned into ten yellow giants over a hundred feet tall, with blurred facial features and burly bodies.
The yellow giant strode towards the first-level monsters, raised his right foot, and after a loud bang, dozens of first-level monster crabs were trampled into a pile of meat paste.
Ten yellow giants strode towards the first-level monsters, either stepping on them with their feet or slapping them with their hands, killing them one by one.
The second-level monsters cast spells to attack the yellow giant, a team of red crabs spewed out a large amount of red flames, a team of blue seals spewed out dense blue water arrows, and a team of blue seagulls released a blue wind blade and went straight to the yellow stone man.
After a loud rumbling sound, the ten yellow giants were defeated by the dense spells and turned into a large piece of yellow earth.
More and more monsters climbed ashore and rushed towards Tianshu Island. The immortal cultivators used spells or puppet beasts to attack the monsters.
The demon birds in the sky cast spells to attack Tianshu Island. Huge red fire clouds and silver thunderclouds appeared in the sky, accompanied by a deafening explosion. Red fireballs and silver thunderballs poured down and hit Tianshu City.
"Go out of the city to meet the enemy! Following Senior Zhao's orders, those who perform great merit will be rewarded handsomely, and those who retreat in battle or surrender to the demon clan will be killed without mercy."
Liu Qingsong's tone was cold and full of murderous intent.
Han Zhangxiang and thousands of other cultivators rushed out of Tianshu Island. The cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage formed small teams of three to five people, or a dozen people in a team, to fight the monsters.
Han Zhangxiang brought ten Jindan cultivators, led by Han Lihe, who was in the late Jindan stage and was the descendant of Han Daobin.
Han Lifeng held a banner with shining blue light in his hand and waved it gently. Hundreds of blue water arrows shot out and hit the monster.
Han Zhangxiang stood high in the air, holding the Golden Flame Heaven-Slaying Sword in his hand with a cold expression.
In a war of this magnitude, everyone fights on their own, and the tribesmen can only fend for themselves.
His eyes were fixed on the Blue Jade Mermaid, and his tremendous magic power was injected into the Golden Flame Heaven-Slaying Sword. The Golden Flame Heaven-Slaying Sword suddenly burst out with a dazzling light, and a golden flame emerged.
Han Zhangxiang swung the Golden Flame Heaven-Slaying Sword, and accompanied by a deafening sound of the sword, hundreds of golden misty sword auras swept out, bringing with them an astonishing heat wave, and headed straight for the Blue Jade Mermaid.
Before the golden blade energy got close, an astonishing heat wave came towards him.
The blue jade mermaid snorted coldly, and slapped the air with his right hand. The sea surface rolled violently, raising a huge wave hundreds of feet high, which hit the golden sword energy.
After a loud rumbling sound, the towering waves were shattered by the dense golden sword energy, which slashed the blue jade mermaid's body. A golden flame submerged the blue jade mermaid's body, and a white mist rose up. The blue jade mermaid turned into blue light dots and disappeared. It was obviously an escape technique.
Han Zhangxiang was about to continue attacking the Blue Jade Mermaid when he seemed to sense something and swung his sword towards the top of his head. A huge blue hand appeared out of thin air and collided with the Golden Flame Heaven-Slaying Sword.
With a loud bang, the Golden Flame Heaven-Slaying Sword chopped the blue hand into pieces.
The thunderclouds rolled violently, and thick silver lightning struck Han Zhangxiang. In addition, red fireballs, blue water arrows, green wind blades and various venoms rushed straight towards Han Zhangxiang.
The blue jade mermaid is not alone, there are many monsters and birds to help her.
Han Zhangxiang summoned the Red Crab Shield and cast a spell. The Red Crab Shield grew bigger and blocked in front of him. The dense spells hit the Red Crab Shield and all of them dissipated.
The roar continued, and the dazzling magical light drowned out Han Zhangxiang's figure.
After a while, accompanied by a sharp sound of a knife, a golden fire python over a hundred feet long flew out from the magic light and pounced on the blue jade mermaid.
Lan Yuqiao felt the astonishingly high temperature emitted by the golden fire python and naturally did not dare to take it head-on. At this moment, a cheerful flute sound came to her ears, making her drowsy.
Lan Yuqiao was distracted for a moment, and when she came to her senses, the golden fire python was already in front of her, and an astonishing heat wave was coming towards her.
With a loud rumbling sound, golden flames engulfed the body of the blue jade mermaid and a faint scream was heard.
Following a sharp sound of breaking through the air, hundreds of golden sword auras shot out and sank into the golden flames, followed by a clanging sound of metal colliding.
A red light flashed, and a small red seal suddenly appeared above the blue jade mermaid's head. After the small red seal lit up with a dazzling light, its size suddenly increased and smashed towards the blue jade mermaid.
Countless blue sea water gushed out and transformed into a blue, sky-holding hand, rushing forward to meet the attack.
With a dull thud, the giant red seal flew backwards.
After a sound of breaking through the air was heard, a long golden rainbow shot out and headed straight towards the Blue Jade Mermaid.
The Blue Jade Mermaid was startled and quickly sprayed out a shield that was shining with blue light. It instantly grew larger and turned out to be a mid-grade defensive magic weapon.
The demon race is not good at refining weapons and setting up formations, and top-grade defensive magic weapons are relatively precious. The identity of the Blue Jade Mermaid is not noble, so naturally it does not have a top-grade defensive magic weapon.
The golden rainbow hit the blue shield with a dull sound. The blue shield blocked the golden rainbow and several tiny cracks appeared on the surface.
The golden rainbow turned out to be a long sword shining with golden light, which was the Golden Flame Heaven-Slaying Sword.
Soon, the Golden Flame Heaven-Slaying Sword burst out with dazzling golden light, and more and more cracks appeared on the surface of the blue shield, and it shattered into pieces. The Golden Flame Heaven-Slaying Sword slashed towards the Blue Jade Mermaid.
The blue mermaid was horrified and wanted to avoid it, but she heard bursts of cheerful flute sounds in her ears and her head felt dizzy.
Just as Jiao Xin was about to help, seven blue beams of light flew over, aiming directly at Jiao Xin.
At the same time, more than ten fourth-level talismans rushed straight towards the fourth-level monster and turned into various attacks.
In order to resist the demon clan, the Righteous Alliance took out a large amount of immortal cultivation resources from the treasury, including fourth-level formations, fourth-level talismans, etc.
Jiao Xin didn't dare to take it head-on, so he opened his mouth and blew out a misty green hurricane to meet it.
After a loud rumbling sound, seven blue light beams were shattered by the green hurricane, and a powerful air wave erupted.
A miserable female voice was heard, and the Blue Jade Mermaid was cut into two halves by the Golden Flame Heaven-Slaying Sword, and even its Nascent Soul could not escape. The blood of a half-demon was impure, and a half-demon above the Nascent Soul stage would give birth to a Nascent Soul, while the pure-blooded demon clan was the spirit of a demon beast.
With the magical treasure Golden Flame Heaven-Slaying Sword in hand and the help of Fairy Qianling, Lan Yuqiao was no match for Han Zhangxiang and was quickly killed by him.
"Friend Han, be careful!"
The urgent voice of Qianling Fairy sounded in Han Zhangxiang's ears. Han Zhangxiang felt a gust of wind blowing over his head. A giant green eagle with a wingspan of more than ten feet suddenly appeared above Han Zhangxiang's head, and a pair of sharp claws went straight to Han Zhangxiang's crown.
Han Zhangxiang was prepared. His body glowed red and a thick red light curtain appeared out of thin air, protecting his entire body.
With a muffled sound, the red light curtain shattered.
Han Zhangxiang flipped his right hand, and the Red Dragon Sword appeared in his hand, slashing towards the sharp claws of the giant green eagle.
There was a dull "clang" sound and sparks flew everywhere.
Under the influence of a huge force, Han Zhangxiang fell rapidly to the ground.
Dense magical auras attacked, and Han Zhangxiang swung the Red Dragon Sword, releasing a misty red sword energy to meet it.
After a loud rumbling sound, all the attacking spells were dissipated and the air waves were like tides.
A beam of golden light shot out and instantly arrived in front of Han Zhangxiang, about to pierce through Han Zhangxiang's head.
A hazy blue sound wave swept over and collided with the golden light, and both were destroyed. The powerful gust of air blew Han Zhangxiang away.
"Friend Han, are you okay?"
A gentle female voice sounded.
Han Zhangxiang looked in the direction of the source of the sound, and Fairy Qianling smiled at him.
"Thank you, Fairy Luo."
Han Zhangxiang expressed his gratitude.
A shrill male scream interrupted Han Zhangxiang's thoughts.
An old man in silver robes was torn into two halves by Jiao Xin, who had a half-dragon body. A mini Yuanying had just left the body. Jiao Xin sprayed out a golden light that covered the mini Yuanying, and swallowed it into his mouth.
"Friend Lin!"
Han Zhangxiang's face darkened.
Dense silver thunder balls smashed down and headed straight for Han Zhangxiang.
