2586 Finding the monster army _1
Seeing that their leader had been killed by Tang Zhen, the other cultivators of Lou Cheng didn’t dare to hesitate and immediately ran away.
If they continued to stay here, they would definitely be wiped out, and no one would be able to save them.
Looking at the cultivators of loucheng who were fleeing in panic, Tang Zhen didn’t give chase as there was no need to.
Don’t chase a cornered enemy, the losses outweigh the gains.
He believed that after this incident, the enemy cultivators would not dare to cause trouble again. They might even leave the Heaven’s Wall city.
Instead of wasting time here, it was better to look for new opportunities. Who knows, he might have the opportunity to occupy a city or a land.
As the strength of the Heaven’s Wall city continued to increase, the difficulty of snatching it would increase exponentially. With the current strength of the enemy cultivators, it was impossible for them to be a match.
Under such circumstances, retreating from the Heaven’s Wall city was undoubtedly a very wise choice.
If they were to encounter a few more attacks from the giant soldier gods, even if they had ten times the number of people, it would not be enough for Tang Zhen to kill.
Of course, there was another possibility. The enemy cultivators would continue to plot against the Heaven’s Wall city. If they succeeded, their gains would be more than ten times as much as before!
Putting everything else aside, just the giant soldier God alone was enough to tempt countless cultivators in loucheng.
It was believed that from the moment the giant soldier God appeared, some cultivators had already begun to plan and try to snatch the giant soldier God.
Tang Zhen would definitely not be polite to such a person. As long as the other party dared to come, he could forget about leaving alive.
In the following period of time, Tang Zhen was still able to sense the peeking eyes. However, compared to the previous unbridled gazes, he had now become exceptionally cautious.
The peeping person was clearly afraid that Tang Zhen would discover him and slap him to death like a fly. That would simply be too stifling.
Tang Zhen was too lazy to care about these sneaky fellows. Although he had sufficient mental energy to use, he could not waste it on such an enemy.
It was as if a strong wind was blowing, scaring hundreds of beasts into fleeing. Tang Zhen finally arrived at the edge of the forest.
His field of vision was wide, but there was no field, only desolation.
According to the map, this place no longer belonged to the Heaven’s Wall city, but to another city.
According to the information they had received, the city had been surrounded by monsters, and the city’s residents had suffered heavy casualties.
Perhaps it would not take long for the city to be occupied by monsters, and the people in the city would either become food for the monsters or become a member of the monster army.
In the early days when they were besieged by the monsters, the city had asked for help from the Heaven’s Wall city, hoping that they could immediately send troops to support them.
Unfortunately, the messenger did not reach the Heaven’s Wall city at all. Instead, it was intercepted by the monster halfway and directly became its food.
In fact, even if the messenger could arrive successfully, the Heaven’s Wall city would definitely not send reinforcements, because they were traitors, and they could not even protect themselves.
Tang Zhen continued to advance. At this moment, his vision was no longer limited and he could see extremely far away.
Even so, there was still no sign of the monster army. It was obvious that they were still some distance away.
The monster came late and Tang Zhen wanted to take the initiative to attack. If he just waited here, the monster might turn around and escape.
It wasn’t like monsters were brainless. When they found out that they couldn’t fight against the enemy, they wouldn’t rush to their deaths.
However, before he left, Tang Zhen chose a forest. Then, he waved his big sword and cut down all the trees.
These trees were straight and hard, more than 70 meters long, and they grew neatly on the edge of the forest.
The giant soldier God’s palm gently lifted, and all the branches were broken, turning into a smooth javelin.
After collecting dozens of javelins, Tang Zhen placed them on his body and continued to move forward.
On the plain, Tang Zhen encountered many low-level monsters in groups of three to five. After they saw the giant soldier God, they were all scared witless.
There were even some monsters that were paralyzed on the ground due to fear. They only dared to jump up from the ground while trembling after Tang Zhen was far away.
Along the way, they also passed by some villages, but they had long been abandoned. From time to time, they could see scattered bones.
Tang Zhen was used to seeing life and death. He had long become accustomed to it and knew that the future scene would be even more tragic.
Compared to the number of natives, there were not many monsters. It might not even be one in ten thousand.
However, in terms of destructive power, even a dozen natives working together might not be a match for the monster.
It was because of the monster’s strength that the natives did not dare to fight against it. Every time the monster appeared, they would subconsciously choose to escape.
This was a very stupid way of doing things, because monsters were everywhere. Even if they could escape for a while, they could not escape forever.
Blindly avoiding and escaping would only make him die faster.
At the same time, there were also natives who tried to resist, but they were too weak and lacked effective leadership. Naturally, they were no match for the monsters.
Therefore, the residents of the Heaven’s Wall city were very lucky. Because of the existence of the alarm bell Church, many of the residents of the Heaven’s Wall city had a strong sense of crisis.
They knew how terrifying the catastrophe was, so they had made preparations early on. In this regard, they far exceeded other cities.
Unfortunately, the role of the alarm bell Church was limited. Although they let the residents know about the possible disaster, they did not have enough strength to resist it.
Fortunately, Tang Zhen had appeared in the Heaven’s Wall city at this time. While he had achieved his goal, he had also helped the residents of the Heaven’s Wall city.
Because of Tang Zhen’s appearance, the Heaven’s Wall city’s residents had the ability to protect themselves and had even survived two monster attacks.
All the residents of the Heaven’s Wall city should be grateful to Tang Zhen for saving their lives.
To the natives, death didn’t mean the end, but the beginning of a new life.
The so-called cycle of life and death did exist in this world, and litt was the most typical example.
As for the other natives, their memories had been erased during their reincarnation and they had no idea who they were in their previous lives.
They were constantly playing a fresh role, being born and dying again and again. It was only because the cost of the soul was high that it was most cost-effective to recycle it.
After becoming a cultivator, the natives would awaken some strange racial abilities. The real reason was that they belonged to the race in their previous life.
If one were to think about it in this way, death was actually nothing. As the saying goes, the earlier one dies, the earlier one reincarnates. Living would instead cause one to suffer many tribulations.
But then again, if he could take advantage of the opportunity of the catastrophe to become a cultivator, obtain great power and seek longevity, that would be a blessing and not a disaster.
Unknowingly, the giant soldier God had already walked a long distance on the plain. Tang Zhen finally saw the demonic Qi that was soaring into the sky.
The monsters covered the land like a tide. Wherever they passed, not a single blade of grass would grow. The crops that were green and yellow had all become the monsters ‘food.
Be it humans, animals, food, wild fruits, grass, or leaves, they were all food for the monsters.
By relying on this destructive plundering method, the monster army could travel long distances without having to carry any logistics supplies.
When the Army of monsters passed by, even if the natives were lucky enough to escape, they would completely lose their source of food and suffer the double threat of hunger and fear.
Moreover, the demonic Qi would become abnormally dense wherever the monster passed. If one was not careful, they would be infected, and the plants would not be able to grow.
This was a true catastrophe. Even if all the monsters were killed, the damaged world would still need decades to recover a trace of vitality.
