"How stingy! It's just some demon crystals." Han Chen complained as he took out the demon crystals. He had been digging for demon crystals all the way, but he had barely had a chance to enjoy them before he had to hand them over. He was really unwilling to do so!
“Within the Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains Map, a demonic beast can be repaired with demonic crystals. You have killed all the demonic beasts and taken all the demonic crystals with you. How will the Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains Map repair demonic beasts in the future?” the illusory figure explained.
Han Chen had almost emptied out a storage space, and seeing the handfuls of demon crystals disappear one by one, he still felt a little heartache.
When Yu Kui and Su Qing finally took out all the demon crystals of the fifth-tier demon beasts, Han Chen's heart almost broke.
Oh dear, that was obtained after a hard-fought hunt of a fifth-tier demonic beast.
After all the demon crystals were taken, the four of them received number plates from the phantom, one for each of them.
"One hundred and thirty-one, one hundred and thirty-two, one hundred and thirty-three, one hundred and thirty-four."
"I hope you have a great time in the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons." The phantom figure vanished in a flash.
The number tags left a number on the four people and then disappeared. The four continued walking into the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons.
At the entrance to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons, a barrier was set up. When the four of them passed through, they were immediately stunned by the scene before them!
The so-called Valley of Ten Thousand Demons is actually the Tomb of Ten Thousand Demons!
Here, the remains of enormous monsters can be seen everywhere.
The air was thick with a sense of desolation and oppression, as if the battle had just ended.
At this moment, the aged voice rang out again:
Welcome to the Monster Battlefield!
"Ten thousand years ago, on the continent of Wuyuan, monsters roamed freely. A large number of monsters formed a beast tide and surged in from the far north. Not only were human villages and towns flattened by the beast tide, but even cultivation families faced the invasion of the beast tide."
"The five major sects, together with other sects and families across the Boundless Continent, have formed a cultivator alliance to create a front against the beast horde. Here, fifty cities have been built to defend against the beast tide!"
"Brave cultivators, your mission is to defend the city and resist the beast tide!"
The four were shocked. They never expected that the so-called Valley of Ten Thousand Demons was actually the result of the beast tide invasion 100,000 years ago.
"Look, what's that!"
Han Chen pointed to the tiny black dot that appeared on the horizon, at which point the ground began to shake.
"My God, a beast tide!"
This is not the small beast tide of twenty demonic beasts we had before; this one must have at least a thousand demonic beasts surging in.
"run!"
If they waited here any longer, the beast tide would probably crush the four of them into mincemeat.
The four of them took off on their swords together, and only then did they realize that they could vaguely see a city ahead!
"Go there!" Su Qing pointed in the direction of the city, and the four of them streaked through the air like a streak of light, heading towards the city.
"Xueling City!"
The three large characters on the city gate were clearly visible.
"Flying with swords is prohibited above the city!" someone shouted from the city wall.
The city of Xueling was protected by a defensive array, making it impossible to force their way through on swords. So the four of them had no choice but to land at the city gate.
"Open the gate and let us in!" Su Qing pounded on the city gate.
"The beast tide is coming! The north gate is blocked!" shouted the people on the city wall.
They could already see the spectacular scene of the beast tide surging in and dust flying everywhere. If they didn't enter the city soon, they would have to face the beast tide head-on!
"Hey, we're cultivators from the Xuanling Sect. We're here to reinforce you," Han Chen shouted as he pounded on the door.
"Since they're here to reinforce us, then please go outside and hunt down monsters!" the people on the city walls responded.
No matter how much they knocked, the people inside the city simply wouldn't open the door.
Su Qing's expression was solemn. In her previous life, although she had not experienced the beast tide, she had experienced the great war between the sect and the demon race.
The extent of the tragedy was beyond imagination.
"Let's prepare for battle."
As Su Qing spoke, she took out stacks of talismans.
Han Chen's eyes welled up with tears: "Junior Sister, I always feel so safe by your side."
"Don't be stingy with the talismans, there's plenty!" Su Qing said, taking out the talisman seal made of ten-thousand-year-old jade.
Han Chen and Yu Kui stared wide-eyed.
"Junior Sister, with this, what are we afraid of regarding the beast tide? We can wipe out as many as they come!" Han Chen regained his confidence.
Everyone outside was watching the situation on the "Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" painting with bated breath.
"My God, it's an ancient battlefield! A beast horde is attacking the city."
"Isn't it the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons?"
"Foolish! Only a beast tide can be called a multitude of demons."
"That's terrifying!"
The cultivators who were eliminated from the Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains Map turned pale. They were extremely grateful that they had come out early, otherwise they would have had to face the beast tide directly and be trampled into mincemeat by the beast tide if they disagreed. That would have been a psychological trauma for a lifetime.
Wen Yutian of the Wuji Sect was also dumbfounded.
This is too shocking! It's just a Foundation Establishment stage selection, is it really necessary to use a beast horde to attack the city?
"Ten thousand years ago, a beast tide swept in, and all our major sects suffered heavy losses. Our Xuanling Sect alone lost twelve Nascent Soul protectors, a hundred Core Formation elders, and several thousand Foundation Establishment cultivators. To commemorate that battle, Ancestor Wanquan placed the scene of the beast tide attacking the city in the Ten Thousand Demon Valley of the Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains Map."
“Our Xuanling Sect holds a sect competition once every ten years. In each competition, there is a segment in the Ten Thousand Demon Valley where Xuanling Sect cultivators can personally experience the shock of a beast tide attacking the city.”
The sect leader of Xuanling Sect spoke calmly.
His voice wasn't loud, but everyone present could hear it clearly.
"The beast tide attacked the city, and the cultivators defended it. In this battle, everyone could clearly see the combat power of each cultivator, as well as the cooperation between them and the strength of the team."
"Although none of you here personally participated in this battle, I hope you can gain some insights from this beast horde siege."
The words of the Xuanling Sect leader warmed the hearts of the Xuanling Sect disciples present. The fear they had felt when facing the beast tide just now dissipated, and they all clenched their fists, wishing they could jump into the battlefield right now and face the beast tide together with the cultivators inside.
An eagle flew across the sky; it was one of the incarnations of the artifact's spirit.
It was inspecting the battlefield at that moment.
Yes, everything is going according to plan.
Two hundred and eighty-eight cultivators all entered the demon beast battlefield of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley.
Here, 288 cultivators were dispersed to guard 50 cities.
Cultivators who defend the same city will automatically form a team. The team that holds out the longest will be awarded first place in this city defense team competition.
All the other cultivators entered the city and joined the city guards in defending it. Only Xueling City, which Su Qing and her four-person team were to defend, had its gates tightly closed, making them the only team locked outside the city!
Hmph, how dare you kill the golden koi carp clone! I hold grudges!
