A beam of crimson-gold light descended from the sky, enveloping the entire area within a radius of 100 meters.
When any of the demonic beasts came into contact with this light, regardless of their level, they all screamed in agony and were instantly reduced to ashes.
The sudden change stunned everyone present.
Only Meng Jiaqi's trembling voice rang out.
"This is... a formation?!"
And it's not even an ordinary formation!
Judging by its power to instantly kill even a Heavenly Evolution-level demonic beast, it must be at least a seventh-level, or even eighth-level, attack formation!
Meng Jiaqi subconsciously shifted her gaze to the boy in front of her, her face filled with disbelief.
Isn't Lu Yuan a super healer?
Can anyone tell him what this formation is all about?
at this time.
Lu Yuan also turned to look at Meng Jiaqi, who was in a daze, and felt a little worried.
"Commander Meng, are you alright?"
That's strange.
I had to suppress my heartache and spend a huge sum of money to exchange for this eighth-order attack formation!
Logically speaking, Meng Jiaqi shouldn't be injured, so why does she look so dazed and confused, as if her brain has suddenly stopped working?
"No! It's nothing!"
Meeting Lu Yuan's questioning gaze, Meng Jiaqi finally snapped out of her daze and quickly answered, then looked at Lu Yuan cautiously again.
"You set up this formation? Just in such a short time?"
Lu Yuan nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Meng Jiaqi was completely bewildered.
It really was him!
It is said that the higher the level of the formation, the more difficult it is to set up. Not to mention the huge loss of spiritual energy, even the steps of inscribing the formation are extremely complicated.
But Lu Yuan set up this eighth-order attack formation in the blink of an eye, and he didn't seem to have any signs of his spiritual energy being depleted. It was as if he had just casually sprinkled some dirt and was completely unaffected!
Could it be that the book contains errors in its description of advanced formations?
After all, he had never personally witnessed someone setting up an eighth-order formation before, so maybe it wasn't as difficult as he imagined?
Commander Meng, who was usually a man of his word, was unusually caught in a state of self-doubt.
"Don't let your guard down, this isn't over yet!"
Lu Yuan's calm voice suddenly rang out, abruptly pulling Meng Jiaqi back to her senses.
Immediately afterward, they looked up and saw another group of ferocious monsters rushing towards them.
"I can only use this formation once, and it can only withstand one wave of attacks from the monsters. From now on, we will need to work hard on our own. We must not let our guard down!"
After saying all this in one breath, Lu Yuan, carrying the Thousand-Patterned Blade, took the lead in meeting the horde of monsters.
Upon hearing this, Meng Jiaqi instantly snapped out of her shock and quickly directed the other team members to follow.
Everyone fought with all their might.
Every extra meter the monsters can be pushed back increases the safety of the citizens behind them.
But ultimately, the disparity in combat strength is too great.
Unlike demonic beasts.
Humans are more prone to fatigue and injury.
The Shenwu Pavilion team, from top to bottom, has only a few hundred members. With reinforcements sent from various places, the number can barely reach a thousand. After fighting for so long, not only is their spiritual energy exhausted, but most of them are also starting to feel powerless due to fatigue or injury.
Furthermore, the horde of monsters had already gone mad, charging around without any regard for the consequences.
Especially those high-level demonic beasts at the Heavenly Evolution level, it is very difficult for ten people to intercept even one.
The defensive line quickly developed a gap.
Several Heavenly Evolution-level demonic beasts rushed through the defense line, crossed the warning line, and charged towards Yandu City.
Meng Jiaqi immediately realized the danger and, after slaying the demonic beast blocking his way, was about to chase after it inside.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan quickly stopped him.
"You can't go! Not only do we need you to stay and command, but we also need you to stabilize morale!"
"But what about those monsters?!" Meng Jiaqi exclaimed anxiously. "There are still many citizens in the city who haven't had time to evacuate!"
"Wow!"
Lu Yuan stared straight at him, his eyes filled with fighting spirit and confidence.
Meng Jiaqi was slightly taken aback upon seeing this. After pondering for a moment, she nodded and grabbed Lu Yuan's hands.
"Then it's up to you. Remember to survive!"
Lu Yuan smiled gently.
Don't worry!
After saying that.
He raised his hand and put Xiao Yi back into his beast-taming space, then channeled his spiritual energy into his swift boots and immediately chased after the monster ahead.
With the help of the Swift Boots, Lu Yuan quickly caught up with the monster ahead.
But when he saw the scene before him, he was stunned and stood there.
Xu Lanshan and Wu Qiushan were standing side by side, blocking the monster that was charging at the front.
Lu Yuan immediately understood.
No wonder he was able to catch up with these monsters in such a short time; it turns out he was stopped by someone.
"Mr. Xu? Mr. Wu? What are you doing here..."
"Yandu is in trouble, how can we sit idly by?" Xu Lanshan coldly looked at the snarling monster in front of him, his tone arrogant. "They're just a few Heavenly Evolution level monsters, not even worth my attention!"
Wu Qiushan also had a smile on his face.
"My son told me that something might have happened in Yandu and that I should hurry home, but how can I only think about my own safety? After all, the Wu family's roots are all in Yandu!"
Xu Lanshan gave Wu Qiushan a deep look, and Wu Qiushan returned the look.
Two people who secretly disliked each other actually smiled at each other.
"Lu Yuan, leave this to us! A cunning monster has run east; go after it!"
Hear this.
Lu Yuan didn't delay any longer and immediately urged his swift boots to run eastward.
As he was leaving, he glanced back and saw that a demon beast had already been sitting on the bottom of Xu Lanshan's tamed beast.
"..."
Lu Yuan's lips twitched, and he sighed inwardly.
He truly deserves to be called the number one person in Yandu.
Even within the Divine Martial Pavilion, this level of strength would place him among the best, at least on par with Meng Jiaqi.
After confirming that the monsters posed no threat to the two of them, Lu Yuan focused his attention on searching for the escaped monster.
"ah--!"
Suddenly.
A terrified scream rang out.
Lu Yuan's expression hardened, and he immediately ran over.
A giant bee, about three meters long, landed in front of a building and stared at the inside with its huge eyes, while the scream came from inside the building.
"Oh no! There are still residents inside who haven't been evacuated yet!"
Without having time to think about anything else, Lu Yuan immediately summoned Chi Yu from the Beast Taming Space.
"Red Feather, unleash a flame attack!"
