Tianluo Continent, Western Region.
In a certain city, dust was flying on the streets. A group of warriors in the martial arts realm were carrying various planks and wooden pillars on their shoulders, walking towards a construction site to rebuild residential areas damaged by the war.
The shirtless men were sweating profusely, and some were so tired that they put down their work and ran to squat in the shade for a while, or went to the nearby tea shop to order a large bowl of sweet tea.
In front of the tea shop, seven or eight shirtless men gathered, talking loudly.
"After today's work is done, each of us can get twenty crystal stones as wages!"
"It's really tiring. We worked for a month in a row before one of us got the money. The construction team that Zhang Gou was with didn't know what kind of work they were doing in the middle of the city. It seemed like they were digging deep pits or something else. One day I only earned three crystal stones!"
"I really envy them. I heard that the work over there was officially completed three days ago. An army of a hundred people arrived there and was stationed there. I don't know what they were doing."
"How do we know about the big shot? Maybe there is some treasure buried underground!"
The eyes of several shirtless men lit up, and their voices suddenly dropped.
"When we have time, we will also go hunting for treasures. With such a big pit, the sergeants may not be able to patrol it."
"Shhh! Stop dreaming. Among the troops stationed there, the worst ones are those in the Qi Martial Realm, as well as the captains in the Ling Martial Realm and the generals in the Earth Martial Realm!"
"Tsk, we ordinary people can just work in peace and stability, but don't expect a windfall..."
Several people were discussing.
suddenly.
"Bah!"
A clear cry sounded in the air, followed by a giant bird seven to eight feet tall, bringing with it a gust of wind and flying over the residential area.
After the giant bird swooped into the city, it flew up into the sky, and the strong wind almost overturned the tea shop.
The few shirtless men were all stunned.
The whole city saw this giant bird one after another and was panicked.
"what happened?"
"How did such a big monster come to the city?"
"Is there going to be a beast attack?"
Under normal circumstances, the distance between monsters and ordinary people is far away. At most, some big shots are seen with spirit beast mounts in the city.
But the monster flying in the air was full of ferocity and was not wearing any decorations. It looked like it was not a spiritual beast at all.
Some timid women and children started crying, and many people ran wildly to their homes and stayed behind closed doors.
In Chaos City, some guards gathered together to prepare to attack the monsters.
However, flying monsters are the most difficult to deal with, especially this earth-level "Black Wind Eagle" monster bird. It has excellent eyesight and keen perception. It can fly to high altitudes that are difficult for Earth Martial Realm warriors to reach. With the force of the small town, at most It ensures that important places in the city are not attacked, but it is impossible to kill that vicious bird!
…
Not just this city.
Similar situations occur in more than 80% of the cities across the continent!
No matter whether it is a big or small city, remote or prosperous, there are more or less demonic birds coming to the sky and circling constantly.
The city guards were helpless.
Obviously these demon birds came here very deliberately. If it is an ordinary small city, there will only be one or two earth-level demon birds, but if it is a very large city at the capital level, there will be heaven-level demon birds! The city guards in each city are generally weak in strength, and the sky-breaking crossbows they use are also relatively weak, unable to pose a threat to the earth-level demon birds.
The most they can do is protect the city and cannot go to the sky to kill the demonic birds.
In a big city.
There is a large pit in the center. A large number of sergeants are stationed in the pit, and the leader is a terrifying existence of high-level Earth Martial Realm.
And just a hundred feet in the air above their heads, there were more than a dozen earth-level demon birds, circling continuously.
The high-ranking general of the Earth Martial Realm issued an order: "Protect the formation at all costs, and never allow the demon birds above to approach here!",
"yes!"
A group of sergeants immediately set up the equipment.
They are more than enough to guard the pits located underground.
If the demon birds come to the ground, their combat power will drop several steps, and their commanders are enough to deal with them.
However.
The demon bird is flying in the air, constantly circling, not knowing what to do.
The abnormal phenomena that occurred in various cities were quickly collected and reported to the depths of the Jiuyou Mountains, where Ji Yingou was.
"What? A large number of demon birds gathered in the sky above every city?"
Ji Yingou and Ji Luoxue looked at each other, obviously feeling something strange.
There has never been a large-scale conflict between monsters and human forces, let alone monsters that were encountered in cities across the continent in less than half a day.
Ji Yingou did not dare to be careless and immediately reported the matter to Lin and Jian.
The two of them also felt at a loss.
Master Jian asked: "Will those monster birds pose a threat to our magic circle?"
Ji Yingou said: "Although the situation is weird, the demon birds really cannot affect our magic circle. Even if we are a small town, we have sent at least a team of sergeants headed by Lingwu realm. They can guard the magic circle well. It's more than enough. Even if some of the defenders can't hold it, it shouldn't be more than one-tenth. They are all cities that invest very little force."
Master Jian and Master Lin communicated privately.
Master Jian said: "Your Highness, should we ask Ji Yingou to send people to investigate in depth, or send out forces to destroy those demon birds? I'm worried that they will be a factor of instability."
Master Lin frowned: "I just felt a very distant space fluctuation, coming from the east. I suspect that people from the main world have been sent over. We must speed up the process without any delay."
Then Master Lin nodded and said to Ji Yingou: "In this case, there is no need to worry. Even if there is a small accident, it is nothing and will not affect the overall plan. Order people to protect the magic circle. As time passes, all the formations will be protected." Be inspired!”
"yes!"
Ji Yingou lowered his head and said.
…
at the same time.
Linsen tribe, central.
Thousands of warriors gathered together, and in the air, there was a very strange magic circle, in the shape of Bagua, surrounded by a green halo, and in the center of the magic circle, Qi Ying stood in the air, eyes closed.
Huge spiritual power was poured into the magic circle.
And this array, combined with tens of thousands of arrays, transmits signals from tens of thousands of directions across the continent.
Even with Qi Ying's terrifying mental power, it is extremely difficult and burdensome to analyze these signals.
But looking at Tianluo Continent, he is the only one who can take on this important task.
"Ninety-five percent of the demon birds are already in place... The rest, some have had accidents... But, that's enough! Senior Wu has sent word that action is about to take place on the Dragon Vein Mountain side, and I will take action immediately."
Qi Ying grinned and activated a certain inscription on the magic circle. After more than ten breaths, he said, "Does everyone know me?"
