Chapter 517 First Test of Edge

Chapter 517: First Test of Edge

Faced with Liu Yu's rhetorical question, several people were speechless and fell into silence.

Yes, why should we go to the rescue?

None of them were stupid, and they understood this after thinking about it. However, although they thought it through logically, they couldn't accept it emotionally for the moment.

Dozens of sect disciples, hundreds of Qingzhou monks, and hundreds of thousands of casual cultivators, just ignored?

Among those monks, there are many familiar people who are from the same sect!

Liu Yu looked at the changing expressions of the people, and could probably guess their complicated emotions, but there was no wave in his heart.

In the environment of human-male confrontation, this situation will not be the first time, nor will it be the last.

The cruel world of immortality has no room for tenderness!

"Now, is there anyone who wants to rescue?"

"If you go voluntarily, I will not stop you. You just need to hand over the matters at hand."

Liu Yu put down the teacup and said calmly.

"."

Yan Kai and others looked at each other without saying a word.

Although I feel a little sad about what happened to my colleagues in Satellite City No. 3, but if I really risk my life to rescue them, then forget it.

The so-called friendship of the same family is nothing compared to one's own safety.

As expected, Liu Yu looked at the performance of several people without any disturbance in his heart.

Immortality is noble and private.

He smiled softly, then his expression became solemn, and he immediately arranged:

"The beast tide has broken out in full force. Now we are only more than a hundred miles away from Jinge City. The four satellite cities are in danger, and troops may approach the city at any time."

"You will go down immediately and activate the city defense formation, and notify the whole city to prepare for battle!"

"Those who dare to retreat from the battlefield and take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos will be executed!!"

The stern voice reached everyone's ears clearly, making several people feel refreshed.

"yes!"

Yan Kai and the others suddenly accepted the order, saluted and hurried out.

"The biggest role of the satellite city is to provide early warning when the beast tide is coming. Everything is to serve Jinge Immortal City."

"At this point, the mission can be considered completed."

Several people put aside their previous thoughts of rescue and found excuses in their random thoughts, and their psychological burden was immediately relieved by most.

But as soon as a few people walked out of Liu Yudong Mansion, bursts of piercing alarms rang throughout the city!

The well-equipped "City Guards", composed of the four major forces, quickly walked through the city with solemn expressions and ran to their pre-arranged posts.

There were also some city guards who knocked on doors and quickly organized the casual cultivators who were still in the city.

Under the cover of the nest, are there any eggs left?

In the face of the beast tide, no one can stay away!

Some casual cultivators could have stayed out of the matter, but because of the "monster hunting support" they came to Jinge City, they could only accept the call and were reluctant to become a member of the city-defending cultivators.

Where in the world is there a free lunch?

Thousands of casual cultivators have paid a heavy price because of their attempts to obtain spiritual energy for free.

Some casual cultivators saw through the "evil intentions" of the four major forces and were filled with anger and anger. They spoke out on the spot and wanted to leave.

However, there were no surprises. Anyone who wanted to leave at this time was charged with "flinching" and was killed on the spot!

After killing dozens of people, the casual cultivators became more honest and began to accept the arrangements in a disciplined manner.

…

The four major forces all have special means to receive information from the satellite city in a timely manner, so they all received information from the satellite city at almost the same time.

Liu Yucai sent Yan Kai and a few others away, and the transmission notes from Taoist Cangyun and Sima Yong arrived, inviting them to go to the city lord's palace to discuss matters.

The situation was urgent, so he gave up the idea of ​​continuing to study the exercises and set off immediately.

When Liu Yu rushed to the meeting hall, the other three people had already arrived.

The hall was silent, the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and everyone's face was filled with solemnity.

Facing a once-in-a-thousand-year tide of giant beasts, the possibility of Jindan monks dying is no less than that of Qi-refining and foundation-building monks.

The golden elixir of human monks is also a great tonic for high-level monsters. After being refined, it can greatly increase their cultivation.

Therefore, third-level monsters with great intelligence would sometimes focus on the Golden Core cultivators for hunting.

A third-level demon beast has a demon elixir condensed within its body, and is also called a demon elixir stage demon beast.

Because they have developed advanced wisdom and know how to think like humans, in order to distinguish themselves from the ignorant monsters, monsters above the third level are also called "demon cultivators".

The strength of demon cultivators of the same level is by no means weaker than that of human cultivators of the same level.

The powerful monster body, sharp minions, and weird and unpredictable innate magical powers make the monster cultivator immediately possess good strength once promoted.

It is definitely not difficult to compete with ordinary Jindan monks.

It is basically impossible to set up traps to hunt demon cultivators like hunting low-level monsters.

"Fellow Taoist Qingyang."

Taoist Cangyun and Sima Yong nodded and said hello.

At this critical moment, several people no longer had any thoughts of intrigue, so they got straight to the point and immediately began to discuss the matter of defending the city.

Even Zhuo Mengzhen couldn't care less about his unhappiness at this time and participated with a solemn expression.

On the eve of the approaching beast tide, even the Golden Core cultivators felt a deep sense of crisis.

Regarding the matter of the four major satellite cities, the four of them had a tacit understanding and just brushed it off and never mentioned the rescue.

As Jindan monks, the top talkers of their respective forces in Jinge City, they naturally think about issues from a different perspective than ordinary monks.

The lives of one monk, a hundred monks, or even one or two thousand monks are insignificant in the face of Jin Ge City's mission.

The four of them must find a way to allow Jinge City to hold on, otherwise once the beast tide breaks through the defense line, the situation will deteriorate.

If you want to resist the beast tide, there will be more places to defend and more monks to use!

A thousand-mile dike breaks in an anthill. Once a hole opens, it is likely to cause a domino-like reaction, leading to unpredictable consequences.

Therefore, you must not act emotionally, but consider the overall situation.

In the simple and spacious meeting hall, the four people spoke to each other and issued orders one after another from time to time, which were conveyed to every corner of Jinge City.

Before you knew it, an hour passed.

"What should be arranged has been arranged. Just in case, I'll go to the tower in person to inspect it."

At the end of the meeting, Liu Yu stood up and said calmly.

"As it should be."

Cang Yun, Sima Yong, and Zhuo Mengzhen all nodded in agreement.

At this time, no one can rest assured that it is impossible to return to the cave to practice.

It's not enough to rest assured if you don't watch it in person.

But before the four of them reached the door, three streams of light transformed into communication symbols flew straight into the meeting hall and stopped in front of everyone.

This was a special messenger used to communicate with the satellite city, and the four of them recognized it at a glance.

"There is another special messenger sent out so soon, isn't it possible?"

When Liu Yu, Zhuo Mengzhen, and Cangyun saw it, they immediately grabbed it in their hands and penetrated it with their spiritual senses to examine it.

Seeing this, Sima Yong's mouth twitched, obviously embarrassed.

After all, the Sima family is just a Jindan family. In terms of heritage, it cannot be compared with the three major sects.

Therefore, the three of them received the news almost at the same time, but the Sima family arranged manpower in the satellite city, but no news came at this time.

Maybe the communication talisman is a bit inferior and the flying speed is slower, maybe

"Satellite City No. 1 was attacked by monsters."

Taoist Cangyun raised his head with a wry smile on his face.

"Our No. 3 satellite city has also been breached by the beast tide."

Zhuo Mengzhen crushed the communication talisman casually, with a bitter look on his face.

"Satellite City No. 3 is also gone."

Liu Yu frowned slightly, put the communication talisman into the storage bag, and said expressionlessly.

When he received this news, even though he had been prepared for it, he couldn't help but feel moved.

In the past three years, Liu Yu has also visited several satellite cities and knows how strong the four satellite cities are.

Satellite City No. 3 alone has the most advanced second-level defensive formations, as well as various special weapons refined to defend the city. In terms of strength alone, it is definitely not inferior to ordinary small and medium-sized immortal cultivators gathering places.

But just like this, these four satellite cities carefully built by the four major forces only lasted for less than an hour before being easily breached by the beast tide?

This gave Liu Yu a more intuitive understanding of the dangers of the beast tide.

He never expected that the four satellite cities would be able to survive the tide of beasts, but he expected that they would be able to hold back a little bit, but he didn't expect them to collapse so quickly.

Hearing this, Sima Yong's expression suddenly changed and became very ugly.

Although I haven’t received any news yet, even the satellite cities of the three major sects are gone. Will the Sima family be an exception?

The sudden news cast a layer of gloom in the hearts of the four people who were already solemn!

…

Although the news of the coming beast tide had spread, there was no chaos due to the maintenance of the city guards that could be seen everywhere.

On the streets, you can see groups of city guards patrolling the streets from time to time.

Along the somewhat deserted streets, Liu Yu climbed to the tower of Nancheng and quickly completed his inspection.

The atmosphere was indeed very tense, but with the support of more than a dozen sect foundation builders, the monk teams were still in their respective positions, achieving the desired results.

"Uncle Liu, everything is arranged."

Just as a group of inspections were completed, Yan Kai hurried over after receiving the news and reported.

"Um."

Liu Yu nodded lightly.

He took everything into consideration and was generally quite satisfied.

Although Yan Kai's abilities were average, with the help of some monks, he was able to do a decent job and couldn't find many faults.

Looking carefully across sections of the city wall, Liu Yu suddenly felt something in her heart and said:

"Immediately distribute special magic weapons such as the Demon Hunting Crossbow and Divine Crystal Cannon to the disciples. Don't be reluctant to use them."

Considering that the four satellite cities were breached in an hour, he felt that he should not hold back.

The strongest means should be used in the first wave to give the beast wave a head-on blow, weaken its unstoppable momentum, and at the same time boost one's own morale.

"yes!"

"Disciple, go make arrangements immediately."

Yan Kai was still a little hesitant at first, but when he saw Liu Yu's unquestionable eyes, he immediately nodded and agreed.

The magical weapon specially refined to deal with monsters consumes spiritual stones every time it is used.

Although it allows Qi Refining monks to exert considerable power, the consumption of spiritual stones is also huge.

Every blow is burning spiritual stones!

Different from the satellite city, the Yuanyang Sect alone has prepared 7,749 divine crystal cannons and 36 "demon hunting crossbows" in Jin Ge City.

With so many special magic weapons, just one round of attacks at the same time would consume almost thousands of spirit stones.

Therefore, Yan Kai and other foundation-building monks are really reluctant to use it unless absolutely necessary.

After all, the funds allocated by the sect to Jinge City are indeed not too much, and the less they use, the less.

After arranging the affairs of Nancheng and making sure that nothing was missed, Liu Yu came to the East City Tower where the Qingxu Sect was in charge, and looked in the direction of the Jinge Branch and the Satellite City with his hands behind his hands.

"I wonder if Bai Hu and others can withdraw smoothly?"

Under the bright moonlight, his vision was greatly affected. He looked into the depths of darkness and this thought flashed across his mind.

Liu Yu no longer had any hope that Yan Chaosheng and other foundation-building monks could successfully withdraw to Jinge City.

Among the foundation-building monks under him, there are no outstanding figures like the "Three Heroes and Four Heroes". Once they are targeted by the second-level monsters in the beast tide, there is almost no possibility of survival.

After all, this is not a one-on-one fight, but a sea of ​​monsters that must be faced at the same time, including not only animals but also birds.

If you want to escape, not only must you be strong, but your escape speed must also be fast enough, at least beyond that of ordinary flying monsters.

And Bai Hu has the best spiritual weapon given by Liu Yu, and the power he can barely activate is no small matter. As long as he doesn't provoke too many powerful monsters, it will be relatively simple to solve.

Controlling the escape speed of the best spiritual weapon, it is not a problem to surpass most flying monsters of the same level. If you are lucky enough, you still have a chance to escape.

Coupled with the tacit understanding between the dead soldiers and being able to ride on the spiritual weapons together, the possibility of escaping becomes even greater with cooperation.

Just as he was thinking about it, several rays of light suddenly appeared in the distant night sky.

That's the monk's escaping light!

Behind the escape light, there are more than a dozen huge figures.

Flying monster!

The dozens of flying monsters all have bright feathers, with a wingspan of about five or six feet, and their beaks are as straight and sharp as daggers.

“Bang bang bang”

One side pursues, the other flees, and the aura of the battle between the two sides shines in the night sky.

In the blink of an eye, a large distance has been covered and we are getting closer and closer to Jinge City.

"Huh?"

Liu Yu's eyes narrowed and he saw three familiar figures, none other than Bai Hu, his dead soldier.

This boy devoted himself to flying away with the black knife, the best spiritual weapon. As for the task of resisting the attack of the monster, he left it to the other two people and escaped back without any danger.

It is precisely because of the tacit understanding that we have the opportunity to stand out from the encirclement with our cultivation in the early stages of foundation building.

As for the monks who broke through from other forces, their cultivation levels were all in the late stage of foundation building or above.

But even so, the situation of the White Tiger and the three people is very bad, and there is a risk of being shot down by the monster at any time.

Seeing this, Liu Yu's heart moved, and the powerful spiritual consciousness of seventy-five miles suddenly stretched forward.

"No demon cultivators were found. It seems that these dozen flying demon beasts broke away from the team and pursued them alone."

This thought flashed across his mind, and the magic power in his body immediately turned into a blue light and rushed out of the fairy city.

These dead warriors were all trained with spirit stones and were completely his own property. Of course, he could not just sit back and watch his property being destroyed.

"It's Senior Qingyang."

Powerful spiritual pressure suddenly emerged, causing the monks on the city wall to stir slightly, and they soon discovered Liu Yu's figure.

Then, all the monks saw the monks who had escaped from the satellite city and the figures of more than a dozen demon birds behind them.

In the next breath, three more spiritual pressures shot up into the sky.

Taoist Cangyun, Zhuo Mengzhen, and Sima Yong all took action at this moment, intending to rescue the monks from their respective factions.

Although he did not plan to go to the satellite city for rescue, if he did not take action before escaping to Jinge City, it would be chilling to all the monks and would be extremely detrimental to the subsequent defense of the city.

In the night sky, as golden elixir-level spiritual pressure emerged, four escaping lights rose into the sky one after another, flying to the east to pick up the monks who had escaped.

…

The magic power in his body was roaring, and it didn't take long for Liu Yu to get within fifteen miles of Bai Hu and the others.

His face was cold, and almost the moment he entered fifteen miles, he opened his mouth and spat out the magic weapon "Sunset Golden Rainbow Spear".

In an instant, the gun grew to about three feet tall, and a pale golden aura shone freely in the sky.

The gleaming sharp gun head, the pale golden gun body, and the dark red lines

The power of the magic weapon level suddenly enveloped the sky, and from a distance it looked like a holy weapon handed down from ancient times!

After sacrificing the Sunset Golden Rainbow Spear, Liu Yu suddenly paused.

Holding the spear tightly in his right hand, the tip of the spear was pointed in the direction of Bai Hu and the others, and he held the spear at an acute angle of thirty degrees and waved it gently.

In an instant, the power of the magic weapon bloomed, and hundreds of golden lights shot out from the tip of the spear.

Like sword energy or knife energy, it shoots out quickly.

The dazzling golden light illuminates an area as bright as day, and can be clearly seen even from dozens of miles away.

On the city tower, many low-level monks saw this scene and felt inexplicably shocked.

"Get away."

Bai Hu received the message from his spiritual consciousness early, and as if he was predicting the future, he controlled the spiritual weapon to sink at the critical moment.

"咻咻"

The dazzling golden light pierced the sky, spanning a long distance in a short time.

"Jiji"

The four flying monsters that were chasing the White Tigers sensed the power of the Golden Core cultivator's attack and immediately let out uneasy screams.

But the attack was too late to dodge, so they could only try their best to resist it.

In the flash of lightning, the four birds turned blood red all over and shed large pieces of their blood red feathers, shooting out like sharp swords.

Densely packed feathers, more than hundreds or thousands?

Looking up from a distance, it was like thousands of arrows shooting out, dyeing the entire sky red.

However, although there are many in number, in terms of power, they are more than a step weaker than the hundred golden lights.

"Bang bang bang!"

The next moment, hundreds of spear lights met densely packed blood-red feathers, and a series of continuous roars suddenly resounded across the sky!

Like an egg hitting a stone, the feather attacks from the four monster beasts were numerous, but they were weak.

Half a breath after the two met, countless feathers were shattered by the golden spear light, and the red aura quickly dimmed.

After breaking through the attack, the gun light seemed to have spirituality. It adjusted its angle and continued to shoot at the four monsters.

"Jiji~!"

There was no time to dodge, and the blood of the four monster beasts spilled into the sky. Dark red blood fell like raindrops, and a shrill cry came from the bird's mouth.

"Huh? Not all of them were killed, but one fish slipped through the net?"

Liu Yu frowned slightly, then lightly waved the Sunset Golden Rainbow Spear, and the spear's light spanned a distance of nearly twenty miles, harvesting the lives of fish that slipped through the net.

"Although I didn't use all my strength to deal with monsters up to the late second level, I can't kill them with one hit, so there are still big shortcomings."

"It seems that the warm-up time is still too short."

Secretly estimating the power of this attack, he shook his head slightly, feeling a little dissatisfied.

PS: There will be another chapter tomorrow morning.
