"During this period of the beast tide, I will always follow you."
Ran Changle saw that his tone was firm and did not object.
The two put on masks and boarded the spirit boat to the Hengduan Mountains.
East of the Hengduan Mountains, the sky was covered with dark clouds and heavy rain was pouring down, forming a sharp contrast to the cloudless and clear sky to the west.
It was the first time that Ran Changle saw such a wonderful sight. It was as if the Hengduan Mountains were a barrier, blocking all the dark clouds to the east.
In the vast rain, there was a vague figure as big as a hill, holding two huge claws. It turned out to be a giant crab.
In the heavy rain, the terrifying crab was not crawling but standing, its two eyes emitting an extremely ferocious red light.
"Crab...crab...fourth level crab!!!"
The monk who came to the Hengduan Mountains for the first time shouted in a trembling voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, black shadows with heads as big as skulls crawled out from behind the standing fourth-level crab.
The number of black shadows increased, becoming dense and rapidly moving towards the Hengduan Mountains.
"This... so many!!!" another monk exclaimed.
At this moment, the cultivators who participated in resisting the beast tide for the first time finally understood that resisting the beast tide was not as simple as they had heard from their predecessors, that it was just about picking up materials and spirit stones.
There are hordes of monsters, and this is only the first wave, there will be several more waves to come.
This is a disaster!
This is a disaster that will cost your life!
It’s just that for thousands of years, these monsters have never broken through the security lines of the three cities, which gives people the illusion that the beast tide is not a disaster.
Those who survived gained a lot, but many people did not survive at all.
However, from the day they embarked on their cultivation, every cultivator knew that they had to fight for resources, fight against monsters, fight against people, and fight against the heavens.
At this moment, seeing so many monsters, everyone was not afraid, but excited and eager to try.
As long as you survive this beast tide, the resources you can get this time will be enough for the next ten years of cultivation.
Seeing so many crabs, Ran Changle's eyes lit up instantly, and his first reaction was: I want to eat it!
In her previous life, the ocean was polluted and seafood was basically inedible. The number of artificially bred seafood was limited, and she had only eaten a few in total.
Seeing so many of them now, each one is bigger than two palms, and they taste delicious just thinking about it.
A happy expression caught Yu Shu's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
It seems that Chang Le likes these crabs very much and he will definitely catch more later.
Qin Mian came over and put a handful of sword balls into Ran Changle's hands. "These are for you. Protect yourself later."
Ran Changle put away the sword ball and took out the talisman he had recently drawn to give to Qin Mian, but it was intercepted by Yu Shu's outstretched hand.
"Give these to me."
Yu Shu put away the talisman and said.
Ran Changle thought to himself: You are in the late Jindan stage, why do you need these talismans that only have the power of foundation building?
However, she did not ask him to return it, but took out another stack and gave it to Qin Mian.
At the same time, he asked the question in his heart: "Brother Qin, why are the only monsters coming this time crabs?"
"The monsters in the sea need water. The first wave of monsters that arrive are usually only crabs and monster turtles. These two monsters can live on land for a short time."
Qin Mian pointed to the dark clouds in the east and continued, "The heavy rain over there will continue for three months. The water level on the ground will continue to rise. When it reaches a certain height, a second wave of monsters will arrive."
Then, he solemnly instructed, "If there's any danger later, immediately retreat to the west of the Hengduan Mountains. These monsters generally won't attack from the west."
"Okay, I'll remember it." Ran Changle nodded.
"What's the point of remembering it?" someone nearby took over and kindly advised, "This is not a place for a five or six-year-old like you. Go home and find an adult."
At this time, more people noticed Ran Changle's presence and tried to dissuade him.
"Kid, leave now before a fight breaks out."
"This is not a joke. People can die."
"Who is so cruel as to send such a young child here?"
Some people, with bad intentions, tried to coax her, saying, "Little sister, come with me. I will protect you."
Ran Changle glanced at the man. Not only was he ugly, but his cultivation was only at the initial stage of foundation building. How could he have the nerve to say that he would protect her?
Just as he was about to say something, he saw a terrifying storm gathering in Yu Shu's eyes, "Get out!"
The cold voice seemed to freeze the air, and the pressure of the late Jindan stage attacked the man who spoke.
The man was so frightened that he knelt on the ground. A layer of ice formed on his body, and he shivered with cold.
Facing Yu Shu's murderous gaze, the man trembled and said, "I'll get out right now, right now."
After saying that, the man lay on the ground and rolled away.
When the people around saw that there was a cultivator in the late Jindan stage next to the little girl, they stopped talking and quietly moved away from them.
“Woo…”
A sound came from a distance.
"This is a sign of a monster attack. Everyone, please be on guard."
The voice of the Nascent Soul cultivator from the City Lord's Mansion resounded throughout the Hengduan Mountains.
He also flew into the air and confronted the huge fourth-level crab from a distance.
The crabs on the ground heard the signal and accelerated towards the Hengduan Mountains.
The human cultivators also began to rush down the mountain.
For a moment, spiritual lights intertwined and various spells exploded among the crabs. On the human monks' side, some were hit and injured by the water jets sprayed by the crabs.
Qin Mian roared with excitement and rushed towards the crab group quickly.
Ran Changle and Yu Shu also flew towards the place where crabs were densely packed on their flying swords.
After carefully observing the distribution of crabs, Ran Changle discovered that these crabs were actually organized and disciplined.
There are groups of them, each group has about twenty of them, one of them is level three, and the rest are level two.
Ran Changle is now in the early stage of the Golden Core cultivation, which is equivalent to the early stage of the third stage of the demon beast. Her body refining has also entered the third stage of the Viscera Refining Realm. She can kill a late second stage crab with just her fists without using spiritual power.
If the highest level of cultivation among a group of crabs is at the early third stage, Ran Changle can kill it with one sword. If it is at the middle third stage, Ran Changle can barely kill it by combining talismans and swordsmanship. If it is at the late third stage, Yu Shu will take action.
In a short while, all the crabs around them were cleared away.
The crabs that were a little further away, seeing how powerful the two of them were, bypassed them and crawled to other places.
Ran Changle looked around and saw that the people around her could handle it and didn't need her help.
And whenever she got close to other monks, she would attract their wary looks.
The look in his eyes seemed to be saying: There is only this much in the first wave, and we don’t have enough to share.
Ran Changle felt a little disappointed. He had only caught a few hundred crabs, and they were gone within a few days.
In the distance, there was a large empty area around Qin Mian.
He flew to Ran Changle and complained, "I told you we shouldn't have come in the first group. The killing hasn't even started yet and it's already over."
