Hearing this, Lu Zhangzhi couldn't help but smile and said:

"I just came to take a look too."

Huo Zhen nodded:

"Since you didn't open it, I will close this space rift now."

"Ancestor, don't be anxious yet."

Lu Changzhi said quickly.

Just kidding, we finally found this place where there are a lot of spirit beasts. If we just close it down, I don’t know how long it will take Qin Li and his team to complete their mission.

"But what are the arrangements?" Huo Zhen looked over.

Lu Changzhi did not answer, but said:

"Why did the ancestor want to close this place?"

Huo Zhen glanced at the space rift and said:

"This space rift leads to a place with many beastmen. It is very likely connected to the beastmen's territory. If left unattended, the special features of this secret realm will be enough to attract a large number of holy beastmen."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhangzhi groaned for a moment and said:

"Why not make use of these beasts? The exit of this secret realm has not disappeared. We can use the current situation of the spirit beasts rampaging to drive away the people of other forces."

"In this way, only the elders and disciples of the sect will remain in the secret realm. They can also use these spirit beasts to hone themselves without worrying about being noticed by outsiders."

"Also, I need some spirit beasts to test my disciples."

After hearing what Lu said, Huo Zhen thought about it and said:

"I intend to do this once and for all."

Then he asked:

"How many spirit beasts are needed, and at what level?"

"Including those that have already come out, there are about 5,000 of them. They don't need to be too strong, as long as they are spirit beasts."

Huo Zhen nodded, raised his hand and arranged several formations, stacked around Lu Changzhi, and said:

"Be careful, I'll go get you some suitable ones."

As the voice fell, a powerful aura surged from Huo Zhen's body. The power enveloped his entire body, and he stepped out of the space crack.

This scene stunned Lu Changzhi.

I never expected that the ancestor would actually run to the other side of the space rift to drive the spirit beast in for himself.

"System, can I pass through this space rift now?"

"No, Master." The system responded immediately:

"When you cross a space rift, you will experience tremendous space pressure. Generally speaking, you need to be at least in the middle stage of the Saint King Realm to do so."

"Even though as the master, if you want to do this, you need the strength of the early stage of the Saint King Realm, or you need to comprehend the law of space in the Saint Realm."

Lu Changzhi nodded. It seemed that he would not be able to move around freely for the time being.

Putting his thoughts aside, Lu Changzhi suddenly thought and instructed Zhou Xun:

"Remove the illusion array at the entrance to the secret realm and find a way to make it easier to find."

Having experienced a similar situation once, it would be much easier to do it again by following the same method.

As long as there is a threat in the secret realm and it reaches a certain level, it is very easy to drive away people from other forces.

Otherwise, you will have to be cautious when taking action.

Without outsiders, we can save enough effort and further improve efficiency.

........

As time passed, the sudden influx of spirit beasts spread out to a larger area.

Just as it is very similar for human practitioners to enter a secret realm, these spirit beasts rushing in are also more like exploring a new world.

But now, the situation is different.

Humans, on the other hand, can be a kind of resource for spirit beasts.

All of a sudden, a catastrophe broke out in the secret realm, centered on the space rift.

"Damn, are these birds crazy? Why are they chasing us!"

Above the sky, the young men on the flying boat looked unhappy.

"Faster, faster!"

A young man shouted and urged them to go, staring closely at the huge bird behind him with a look of fear.

At this time, the speed between the two sides is gradually shortening.

Compared to the situation in the air, the situation on the ground is not much more optimistic.

Compared to running wildly on the ground, the speed in the sky is relatively faster. Otherwise, if you fall down, you will have to deal with the pursuit of a large number of spirit beasts.

"The city is definitely safe. As long as we can fly back, we will be fine."

"Where is the city..."

As they were communicating hurriedly, suddenly, the bird behind them flapped its wings violently and let out a shrill cry.

In an instant, sound waves attacked the flying boat.

The people on the flying boat only heard a buzzing sound, and then everything in front of their eyes went dark, and the whole world suddenly became quiet.

Bang!

The flying boat suddenly exploded, and several people lost their balance and fell down.

The bird flapped its wings, lowered its body, and suddenly opened its mouth. Immediately, a strong gust of wind sucked in several people, and then turned to the location of other flying boats.

Elsewhere, on the ground, two people were running towards the city in panic.

"Hold on, hold on, it's almost there!"

Behind them, a large number of spirit beasts were running, raising dust all over the sky. The ground was rumbling, and they were approaching.

Finally, the two arrived near the city.

However, the city gates here are tightly closed and surrounded by formations.

There are many others who are now in mid-air outside the city, trying to enter it, but are blocked by the formation.

"Open the formation and let us in."

"Please, don't leave us outside, I have some stuff here, let us in, we're willing to give it to you."

There were sounds of panic and pleading, but there was no change in the formation.

Seeing the spirit beast getting closer, someone got angry and tried to break the formation.

Someone in the city looked at the people outside the city and said:

"How about opening a spot for them to come in?"

"No need. They can't give us anything. Besides, we can get the things they have after the beast tide passes."

As the ground tremors approached, the spirit beasts approached, eventually engulfing the city in a tide of beasts.

The city's influence on spirit beasts is still valid.

However, those who cannot enter cannot enjoy it.

Similar scenes are happening one after another in various places in the secret realm.

.......

The location of the nine-story tower.

Lu Zhangzhi stood up and sent a message to Qin Li and others:

"Let's put aside the matter of enlightenment for now and complete the task of collecting blood essence first."

Not long after, on the eighth floor, Gu Chen, Qin Li and others all walked out of the window.

"Master, has something unexpected happened to the commemorative jade?"

Gu Chen thought of something and asked.

Otherwise, the master would obviously not suddenly ask them to go hunt spirit beasts at this time.

Lu Zhangzhi nodded, glanced at the sky, and said:

"Come on, follow me back to the vicinity of the Eighteen Cities."

As he spoke, Lu Zhangzhi took out the Void Shuttle and stepped forward.

It is still daytime, and only the spirit beasts are running around. The distance between the Eighteen Cities and the rift is relatively far, so the scale of the beast tide will not be as obvious as it is nearby.

But before long, when night falls, the overcrowded situation in the Eighteen Cities will surely attract a large number of spirit beasts.

At that time, with the strength of the people in the eighteen cities, except for those in the city or those who had somewhere to go, the rest of the people would probably be buried in the beast tide.

This matter cannot be ignored.

That's just right. If possible, we can use the attraction of the people in the eighteen cities to the spirit beast and defend the city to wait for the beast!
