Chapter 106 Monster Food

The midday sun on the outskirts of Yuanling Mountains outside Licheng is scorching, but the forest is like a cover, blocking the sunlight and protecting every living thing in the forest. Therefore, it is extremely cool in the forest.

Every tree in the forest was wearing a golden "hat" under the sunlight. From a distance, it looked like a forest made of gold. The silence of the forest was suddenly broken by a commotion. Following the sound and looking towards the place that broke the silence, I saw a group of people quickly shuttling through the mountains. They looked so embarrassed that they seemed to be running for their lives. When they got closer, I found that their faces were full of horror.

One of the female cultivators among the few people who had to escape was already exhausted and out of breath. She couldn't even control the flying sword, so she could only rely on the brother beside her to drag her forward. The female cultivator couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw her brother was exhausted. She kept begging with tears in her eyes to the male cultivator who was holding him, "Brother, please put me down! If you put me down, you might still be able to escape. Brother, don't worry about me. I have no strength left. Brother, please go quickly. What will happen to our parents if we don't go back!" The male cultivator who was holding him looked at his only sister, the little sister he had spoiled since she was a child. How could he let go of his sister? If he let go of his sister, she would only have one way to die. So he couldn't let go even if he died. Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and took out a pill from the storage ring. He stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation, then pulled his sister on his back and controlled the flying sword to rush forward desperately.

The people around him also followed with gritted teeth. There was no other way. If they didn't fight hard, they would be doomed to become food for the monsters behind them.

Half an hour later, the group arrived at the gates of Licheng. As soon as they reached the gates, each of them seemed to have lost their strength and fell from their flying swords. The monks guarding the city were shocked when they saw them. Although they didn't recognize the group, they knew the young man and woman leading them. They were the children of their city lord. They hurried forward to help the group up and head back to Licheng. The city lord's son immediately fainted after seeing the arrival of the group, while the city lord's daughter immediately shouted, "Help us back to the city! Activate the city defense formation immediately! Hurry, the Beast Dynasty is coming!" These words sent shockwaves through the crowd. The Beast Dynasty! That was the Beast Dynasty! As soon as the monks who had come forward fell to their feet, one person lifted two people and the others quickly entered Licheng. Once inside, they closed the city gates and immediately activated the city defense formation. At this time, the alarm bells in the city rang, seven times in a row, warning everyone that the Beast Dynasty was coming and to quickly scale the city walls to resist it.

Leng Youran was refining a furnace of fourth-grade elixirs when she heard the sound. She had just finished refining when the alarm bell rang. She put away the elixirs and looked up at the direction of the alarm bell. After thinking for a while, she followed the crowd and rushed towards the city wall, because they heard that the alarm bell did not stop after ringing seven times. The cultivators in the city were not calm, because seven sounds represented a small beast dynasty, nine sounds represented a medium-sized beast dynasty, and eleven sounds represented a large beast dynasty. Usually, Licheng was a small beast dynasty, which could be dealt with by Licheng's own cultivators and the casual cultivators who came to join in the fun. However, today the alarm bell rang nine times. This time it was a medium-sized beast dynasty, not the small beast dynasty in the past. There was a small commotion. When everyone reached the city wall, they found out that the children of the city lord had gone to Yuanling Mountains for training today. They had just finished a battle and were about to clean up the scene when they felt the ground suddenly start to shake. Several people used their spiritual senses to scan the direction of the vibration and were so scared that they immediately flew back without even collecting the spoils. The group used up all their spiritual power to go to Licheng, and finally escaped from Yuanling Mountains with all their strength. The city lord's son even took the Soul-Breaking Pill to bring his sister back to Licheng, otherwise the city lord's daughter would not be able to come back this time. They had just returned to Licheng and within a few breaths, the army of monsters had surrounded Licheng.

Leng Youran stood on the city wall, looking at the dense swarm of monsters. Suddenly, his scalp went numb. How many monsters were there? It was so overwhelming that he couldn't even see the end. He heard from the cultivators in Licheng that this was only the first batch, and there would be waves of monsters coming later. No wonder those casual cultivators said that this beast rush was an opportunity or a danger. At this time, the mayor of Licheng stood on the city wall and looked at the monsters below. He frowned at the endless monsters. This first wave of monsters was much more numerous than every previous beast rush. Lou Shaobai looked at the dense monsters and turned back to look at the cultivators in the city. He couldn't help but feel a headache. This medium-sized beast rush was no easier to deal with than the small beast rush. He was worried that the cultivators here couldn't hold on. What should he do? Should he send a distress signal? But thinking that there were so many cultivators here, if they really couldn't hold on, they could just arrange for them to split into four groups.

The first group: A team is formed by cultivators below the tenth level of Qi training. Their main task is to guard the formation and exchange the spirit stones needed for the formation. They also have to take care of the injured cultivators.

The second group is composed of cultivators who have reached the tenth level of Qi training and the great perfection of weapon refining. They are responsible for killing low-level monsters. You must know that monsters are also group animals.

The third group is composed of cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Their main task is to deal with third- and fourth-level monsters. Of course, if they encounter low-level monsters, they must kill them at will. If they encounter high-level monsters, it depends on your ability.

The fourth group is composed of Jindan stage cultivators. They mainly deal with fifth- and sixth-level monsters. Generally, the beast dynasty is led by sixth-level monsters, so this group of people will be the last to take action.

But this time is different. This time it is a medium-sized beast dynasty. Lou Shaobai invited several Yuanying stage cultivators in the city to come over, for fear that there are too many high-level monsters this time and they cannot handle it. He has already made plans. If they really cannot handle it, he will have to ask his father to come out of seclusion so that he can hold on for some time.

The four groups of people led by Lou Shaobai were divided into two pairs, one pair went out to kill the enemy, and the other pair rested in the city. Leng Youran stood in the team of foundation-building cultivators, and she was excited that she could finally fight well. Only now did she realize that she was actually a warmonger, because she found that only in fighting could she grow quickly. She longed to grow quickly so that her parents would not have to worry so much, and only by becoming stronger could she avoid being bullied.

Leng Youran's team was the second group to go out. At the city lord's command, all the cultivators flew out from the small gap on the top of the wall on their flying swords. The monsters on the ground became excited when they saw the shadows of the cultivators. Leng Youran stood on the city wall and watched the battle outside that was instantly entangled. His blood boiled in his heart. He was very excited to think that he would be able to go into the battlefield and kill the enemy later.

When the monsters outside saw the monks, they rushed forward and followed them towards this side, apparently wanting to keep these people.

The first group of disciples were already struggling after holding on for two quarters of an hour, because they were a little overwhelmed at the beginning, so they could not hold on any longer.

The city lord immediately ordered the second group of people to go out immediately to cover the first group of disciples to come back to heal their wounds and restore their spiritual power.

As soon as City Lord Lou gave the order, the second group of cultivators rushed out and stood in front of those cultivators. After watching them return to Licheng safely, they desperately fought with the monsters.

Leng Youran's opponents were also five horned wolves. These horned wolves were very cunning. Leng Youran didn't want them to trap her. The flying sword in her hand instantly appeared in her hand. The sword intent of water slowly rippled on the sword. Sword energy was continuously swung out to resist the surging group of monsters.

The sword intent of water kept leaving wounds on the monsters, and at the same time took away the traces of spiritual energy in the monsters' bodies. What made these monsters even more frightened was why this human, who seemed to be only at the Foundation Establishment stage, could easily suppress them and make them feel that they were unable to move freely.

They immediately became furious and rushed towards him like crazy, each of them casting various spells.

For a moment, Leng Youran was fighting fiercely, adding a scene that attracted frequent attention to the entire battlefield. Lou Shaobai and several other Nascent Soul cultivators standing on the city wall looked in Leng Youran's direction with surprised expressions. You know, there are not many cultivators who can practice a sword intent to great perfection in the Foundation Establishment Stage. This situation can only mean that this cultivator must be a disciple of a large sect or family, because only large sects can cultivate such outstanding disciples. It seems that they must be careful not to let anything happen to this girl in Licheng, otherwise it will be difficult for them to explain when the sect elders come to find her. Although they have no obligation to take care of her, if something really happens, who will listen to your explanation! Alas! Why don't these disciples from the big sects stay in the sect? Why do they rush forward when they know there is a Beast Dynasty here! What a headache! Alas! I should take better care of her myself! Lou Shaobai couldn't help but think.

Leng Youran had no idea that she was being despised. She was fighting with great enthusiasm. She hadn't fought so freely for a long time. She didn't think about anything and didn't have to worry about anything. She just shook the flying sword in her hand lightly, and streams of water-blue sword energy rippled out from the flying sword. In just a moment, she took the lives of two monsters. As for the remaining three monsters, they were also seriously injured. They had already wanted to retreat. They looked at her with eyes full of retreat. Leng Youran looked at the fear in their eyes and smiled. It's good to know what fear is! Taking advantage of your illness, I will kill you. Thinking of this, she shook her wrist and swung out several more sword energies, and the remaining three fell down at the same time. With a wave of her white hand, the corpses of several monsters on the ground were transferred to the storage bag she had specially prepared. She looked at the situation around her and knew that they should be able to deal with it for the time being, so she felt relieved. She looked up in other directions to see if there was anyone who needed help. Suddenly, she saw a female cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Period being forced to retreat step by step by five monsters. She was about to give up. At this moment, a gale leopard quietly lurked behind the female cultivator, and had stretched out its long claws to grab the female cultivator's back. Leng Youran's eyes flashed, and a sword energy was released from the flying sword in her hand, which directly slashed at the claws of the gale leopard, and she also quickly went towards the gale leopard.

The Swift Leopard's sneak attack was interrupted, and it glared at the abominable human with hatred. Seeing the Swift Leopard's somewhat ferocious eyes, Leng Youran smiled. "I just want to make you angry. If you're not angry, how can I take your life?" He shook the flying sword in his hand and swung out another stream of sword energy. The monsters surrounding the female cultivator sensed danger and dodged to the side. Only then did they avoid the sudden attack. In just this instant, the pressure on the female cultivator was greatly reduced, and she immediately became fierce. She had just been bullied by these monsters.

So he started to fight back as soon as he got the chance. The flying sword in his hand shone brightly with golden light and attacked, directly ending the life of a Swift Leopard.

Seeing this, Leng Youran smiled at the female cultivator and then concentrated on dealing with the monster in front of her. A quarter of an hour later, the storage bag Leng Youran took out was full, and there was not much spiritual power left in her body. She could not hold on for long if she continued fighting. After hearing the order to return to the city, she looked at the dense group of monsters in front of her that seemed to be no lessening, turned around and followed everyone towards Licheng.
