When Yang Junshan’s eyes were filled with frost and his gaze penetrated to the Southern Gazing County several kilometers away, the beast wave attack was already approaching a crisis.
The appearance of the four dire beasts caused Adept Jing Chen’s expression to change drastically. As for Spiritual Masters Zhou and Cai, they no longer had the lofty, altruistic demeanor they had when they came to rescue Zhou Quan. At this moment, the two of them were absolutely regretful that they had come to support Southern Viewing County.
However, even if the two of them wanted to leave, they would not be able to do so. If the two of them had pushed each other aside for various reasons from the very beginning and did not come to the county to help, even if the Black Scale School did settle their debts afterwards, they would at most be punished with a crime of not saving their lives.
Now, if the two of them turned around and left, not only would they not save the enemy, but they would also flee and deliberately frame the Black Scale School, destroying the Zhou and Cai Family.
Spiritual Master Zhou fought with all his might against the Mountain Bull, and Dao Master Cai fought fiercely against the bristles of the boar. However, these two wild beasts both had rough skin and thick flesh, and as long as their magic tools were not a direct hit, they would not be able to harm these two wild beasts.
Although these two fought hard, but at least because the two dire beasts were not agile enough, they could still fight. However, if they had to trade with Adept Jing Chen, they wouldn’t be able to even die.
Wolves had always been a group of ferocious beasts, especially when their Wolf King was a dire beast. Even the Gangli Accumulation Realm of the wolf pack made it difficult for the Adept Jing Chen to face it.
Fortunately, Adept Jing Chen was also guarded by Inner Sect Disciples of the Black Scale Sect, who formed a simple Dao-Soldier Array to assist the Adept Jing Chen in suppressing the wolf pack.
However, the three dire beasts were not the only ones besieging the Southern Viewing County. The white-headed eagle saw the opportunity and swooped down from the sky, and the grand defensive formation was once again torn apart. The two Martial Realm Cultivator s, who were battling the beastmen attacking the city from above, were unable to dodge in time, and were scratched on the head by the two talons.
Adept Jing Chen shouted, “What a beast! This master has been waiting for you to use this move for a long time!”
Adept Jing Chen who had been suppressing the Wolf King suddenly raised his hand. A fist-sized crystal ball suddenly flew into the air and a layer of snow appeared on the surface of the crystal ball, wrapping it up and turning it into a snowball.
As the crystal ball flew up, the cold air around it surged and the water vapor around it condensed, causing the snowball to grow larger and larger. By the time it reached the eagle’s head, the snowball had already expanded to a size of ten feet.
Adept Jing Chen suddenly pushed up the hand seals he had formed with his hands, and shouted: “Freeze!”
The giant eagle’s body was instantly covered with white frost, and gradually began to freeze. The giant eagle felt as if its entire body had become stiff, and its body, which was flying in the air, was on the verge of collapse.
The giant eagle instinctively sensed the danger and flapped its wings violently. The snow that was originally frozen on its body exploded, but was immediately covered by the snow and frozen again.
“Let’s see where you can escape to this time!”
Although the threat of the Wolf King still existed, Adept Jing Chen was not willing to give up this chance to kill a dire beast, not to mention the White Headed Eagle who was the greatest threat to the four dire beasts. As for the losses that the wolf pack’s counterattack might cause, he did not have the time to care about it anymore.
Although most of the White-headed Eagle’s body looked like it was covered in ice and snow due to the sudden burst of the sacred art from the crystal ball, the damage to the powerful Huang Beast was extremely limited. However, its body that was flying in the air appeared to be on the verge of collapsing due to the lack of balance.
But for Adept Jing Chen, this was already enough. What was truly impressive about the White-headed Eagle was its speed and agility in the air, once these two advantages were restricted, Adept Jing Chen was confident enough to kill the White-headed Eagle!
The White-headed Eagle seemed to have sensed that its life was on the verge of being threatened, and it flapped its wings desperately in an attempt to escape. Countless snowflakes that had frozen the surface of its feathers shattered with the flapping of its wings, and its speed also became faster and faster.
Adept Jing Chen sneered, and pointed at the crystal ball that was already covered with snow. That crystal ball turned and turned in mid air, and then flew in a strange arc towards the White-headed Eagle’s head.
But just at that moment, a low rumbling sound suddenly came from below, causing Adept Jing Chen’s expression to change, he lowered his head to look, only to see that the ground in front of the city gate had crumbled, forming a large barrier that was dozens of metres long, immediately collapsing and shrinking. The demon beast wave that was originally blocking outside the city walls suddenly roared out, and rushed towards the city walls, while the cultivators who had lost the protection of the beast tide, were immediately forced into close combat by the beast tide.
A ten feet long, round, fat rat stuck its head out from under the ground. Only after discovering that there was no danger did it climb up from the ground, and with a sudden flick of its fat neck, countless pieces of gravel and dirt flew out in all directions, along with countless hissing sounds.
With the materials of these pieces of debris, although they were not able to heavily injure the cultivators, they had at least caused some excruciating pain to their entire body. What was even more terrifying was that these flying rocks caused a lot of disturbance to the nearby cultivators, and the ferocious beasts and savage beasts that were waiting for the opportunity immediately pounced on them, causing a lot of casualties to the cultivators guarding the city.
This fat giant rat was called the “Earth Stealing Mouse” and was also at the Huang Beast level. Although this giant rat was not good at killing, its innate divine ability could cause serious damage to formations and the like.
With the sudden appearance of the rodent and the weakening of the city’s defensive array, the Mountain Crash Bull suddenly escaped from Spiritual Master Zhou’s entanglement and was then struck on the flank by Spiritual Master Zhou. Under the shocked gazes of many cultivators on the city walls, it rushed on and crashed into the wall, suffering heavy casualties.
A few cracks suddenly appeared on the wall where the mountain bulls had crashed into. Then, amidst the exclamations and creaking of many cultivators, this section of the city wall made from iron juice and low-grade magic material suddenly collapsed!
However, its speed was obviously slower than the Mountain Crash Bull, which allowed Taoist Master Cai to have more time to snipe and the Adept Jing Chen, who noticed that the situation was bad, had no choice but to give up on the opportunity to heavily injure the White-headed Giant Hawk, returning back to kill and repel the Mountain Crash Bull.
At the same time, Adept Jing Chen had no choice but to return to protect the wall as it broke apart. On the other side, Spiritual Master Zhou, who knew of the situation, rushed to make up for it.
But at the same time, twenty or thirty disciples of the Black Scale Sect, led by the Pure Forest disciples who were at the peak of the martial arts realm, suffered heavy casualties aesult of the impact of the wolf pack.
Without the Adept Jing Chen’s suppression, the Wasteland Wolf King and the wolf pack quickly broke through the simple Dao-Soldier Formation formed by the disciples of the Mystical Scale Sect. When the Pure Forest was trying to stop the Wolf King, its left arm was torn off by the Wolf King.
However, the Great City Barrier Formation had been weakened to the extreme, which also caused the beast tide to rush towards the city wall. Although there were many Martial Realm Cultivator on the city wall joining hands to defend, there were still many fierce beasts and savage beasts that took the opportunity to cross the city wall and charge into the city, causing constant panic.
Although the Adept Jing Chen was fighting to the death, he could barely block the two dire beasts, the Wolf King and the Earth Rat. And the giant white eagle who was almost tricked by the Adept Jing Chen earlier had already recovered its senses, the angry hawk released a long cry, it dodged the Adept Jing Chen’s obstructions and rushed towards the center of the city, directly destroying several buildings in a row. The dozen cultivators who dared to resist were grabbed by the Adept Jing Chen and had their chests broken, and their skulls pecked out.
“Daoist friend Chen, the beast tide is huge. We are outnumbered!” Although Spiritual Master Zhou could now completely suppress the Mountain Crashing Bull and even give him some time to kill it by himself, what was the point of killing a Mountain Crashing Bull if the county was in ruins?
“Yes, there are mountains here, and there are no firewood. Fellow Daoist Chen, we have already done our best. However, with such a large beast herd and the gathering of headless beasts, how could we be a match for them?” Daoist Master Cai had been having a hard time fighting a bristled pig, so he had the intention of retreating. He wanted to return to his family and arrange everything in case the beast tide caused any damage to the family property.
The Adept Jing Chen only turned a deaf ear to this, and only focused on attacking the Wolf King and the Earth Stealing Mouse. Unfortunately, the Wolf King’s body was nimble, and the Earth Stealing Mouse was a chicken thief, its Inherent skill was similar to the Earth Escape Technique, if it was in danger, it would just stick its head to the ground, and hide its fat body under the ground, protecting itself from danger.
Adept Jing Chen was indeed worthy of being called one of the top true disciples of the Mystical Scale Sect. Against two enemies alone, he still had the upper hand against two troublesome Huang Beasts. Even so, he was still unable to stop the beast tide from attacking the County City which had lost its protection.
At this time, Yang Junshan had already arrived near the Southern Viewing County’s city, and the tragic battle of the beast wave had reached a critical point. Yang Junshan saw that the cultivators of the Xuan Yuan Sect were on the verge of collapse, but he looked towards the giant white headed eagle that was wreaking havoc in the air, and laughed: “We have just obtained the legacy of the Hundred Feathers Bird and the Thousand Feather Fan Sect, then this giant white headed eagle will crash onto us, and we might even pull it into a bald eagle!”
The White-headed Falcon was much stronger than the Ice Origin Frigid Eagle, and its body was almost twice as big. However, the giant eagle wanted to move alone, which was not as much of a threat as moving in groups of Ice Origin Frigid Eagle.
“Haha, Fellow Daoist Pure Dust. After not seeing you for so many years, Fellow Daoist, you are even more graceful than you were in the past. It’s just that the situation today doesn’t seem good!” Just as Yang Junshan’s voice fell, he took a step forward, and his figure had already horizontally appeared, coincidentally blocking the White-headed Eagle’s diving route.
“I ask for Dao Friend Jun Shan’s help. I, Wu Chen, cannot thank you enough!”
