Chapter 272 Arrival at the City of Ten Thousand Monsters
"Probably not," the driver said solemnly, "as long as we can hold on until dawn."
The monks looked at Ye Yuxi and the others.
The formation was set up by this little kid.
"Can the formation keep us going until dawn?" a cultivator asked impatiently.
The bodies of the monks who were bitten to death before were completely devoured by these monsters, and the monsters were so difficult to fight, they didn't want to die.
Before Ye Yuxi could answer, she heard a slight clicking sound.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound in horror. The monster was gnawing at the formation, and cracks had appeared in some places.
“Xixi——”
Yuan Qingzhou and Mo Wensheng once again protected Ye Yuxi behind them.
"Formation, what about the formation? We have paid the spirit stones, you have to ensure our safety."
A monk collapsed and shouted.
"I will naturally ensure your safety." Ye Yuxi walked out from behind the two of them, and her childish voice echoed in the night sky.
It gives people an inexplicable sense of security.
She approached the formation and quickly replenished its materials.
I was thinking, will I lose money this time?
The unknown creatures outside were gnawing at the formation relentlessly, and Ye Yuxi reinforced it with extremely fast hands.
This won’t work, Ye Yuxi thought, it consumes too many spirit stones.
Even if she had no shortage of spirit stones now, she couldn't squander them like this.
Ye Yuxi's thoughts raced as he suddenly thought: if these monsters would disappear at daybreak, then were they afraid of the light or something else?
Thinking of this, she summoned Huo Huo: "Huo Huo, go to the pink room, I will give you the formation materials, you calcine them."
The small flames that the fire can emit are still not very big, but they are much better than before.
When Ye Yuxi replaced the formation materials again, most of the cultivators were wondering if the spirit stones given to Ye Yuxi were too few?
Not enough to cover the cost of materials.
The monster that was gnawing on the formation materials screamed, and red powder fell on the snow.
"Is this dissipated?" Some cultivators were confused.
Soon more monsters disappeared.
Ye Yuxi understood that it was the power of the Phoenix Fire. It seemed that these things were not very clean.
There is just no evil or demonic energy, so what on earth is it?
As she was thinking, after a group of monsters disappeared, the other monsters lingered around for a few rounds and then dispersed.
"It's over?"
"We are saved, so we don't have to die?"
…
The monk sat on the ground, his face showing both joy and confusion at having survived the disaster.
Only after confirming once again that the monster had disappeared did the monks calm down.
"Thank you, little Taoist friend."
They all thanked Ye Yuxi, and Ye Yuxi waved her hand, "You spent money."
This sentence made the monks feel embarrassed. "We, we don't have a lot of spirit stones either. Can we make up for the loss of materials next time?"
Ye Yuxi looked up blankly, and after a moment of reaction she realized what they meant, "No need."
She calculated that she had not lost money on materials, but she had not made any money either.
She remembered that the Yuan family's steward had told her that doing business requires integrity, so that there would be more business next time.
It was still a while before dawn, and no one was in the mood to meditate at the moment, so they gathered around Ye Yuxi and the others to chat.
"Little Daoist friend, why did these monsters disappear later?"
Ye Yuxi: "It's a secret, don't tell anyone."
Naturally, the existence of the little phoenix Huo Huo cannot be told to outsiders.
This is a divine beast, although it is a bit weak, it always eats superpowers and spiritual stones——
Ye Yuxi asked the driver again: "Should we tell other people about what happened here?"
She was concerned about whether there was anyone to solve the problem.
Unfortunately, this place is not under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Alliance.
Hearing her question, the others also looked at the driver.
"Report it to Wan Yao City. They will handle it." The driver said concisely.
"Why is Wan Yao City independent of Yun Lan Continent?" Ye Yuxi asked.
She had asked Yuan Qingzhou and Mo Wensheng before, but they didn't know.
When I was purchasing things, I also asked the people of Tiangu City, but they didn't know either.
The driver hesitated for a moment and said, "I know one thing. The demons are guarding the seal here. They have only one request: humans cannot interfere with the demons. When necessary, humans must help the demons."
"Seal? What seal?" Ye Yuxi's curiosity was aroused.
"It seems to be some kind of crack, and there are scary creatures in the crack." The driver said, "I don't know the details, it happened a long time ago."
"So is what we encountered tonight a terrible creature?" Ye Yuxi suddenly had an idea.
Judging from the expressions of the other monks, they also had the same idea.
"It shouldn't be. If it were, we would probably be dead." said the driver.
"That's right," Ye Yuxi agreed after thinking for a while, "If the demon tribe is guarding it, it must be a very scary thing."
After daybreak, the monks packed up their companions' belongings, got on their cars and left.
Ye Yuxi looked at the direction where the monster came from and asked the driver: "What's over there?"
The driver thought for a moment and said, "I remember there is an ice lake over there."
"Ice lake?" Could it be that the monster came out of the ice lake?
Ye Yuxi is just a beginner, so she would just think about this kind of thing and would not investigate it personally.
She was going there for experience, not to die.
The rest of the journey went by without any danger, and they even ran into a car that had just gotten off the train.
Half a day later, Ye Yuxi looked at the city made of ice.
In the sunshine, the crystal clear city sparkles and looks dreamy.
"Wow, ice wall? Ice house?" Ye Yuxi exclaimed in ignorance.
The female cultivator kindly explained, "It's not ice, it's a special kind of stone that looks like ice."
Her attitude this time was much better.
"So that's how it is. Is it expensive?" Ye Yuxi asked. If it's not expensive, she will get some materials back and ask her second senior brother to build a small house for her.
"It seems to be quite expensive. I heard that the demon king spent a lot of money on it. She likes shiny things."
"Oh, thank you." Ye Yuxi was a little disappointed, but thanked politely.
The driver stopped the car and said, "We're here, you guys get out."
The female cultivator stood up and said to Ye Yuxi, "We should thank you. My name is Shen Nanzhi. We will rest in Wan Yao City for two days. If you need help, you can find us at the inn of Xianyuan Commercial Bank."
Ye Yuxi nodded and said her name.
When they entered the city, the driver said, "Something is wrong in the snowy plains. Your cultivation is low, so it's best not to stay here for too long. By the way, come and touch my old friends."
This was agreed upon beforehand. Ye Yuxi cheered and went forward to touch it.
The lion-dog beast did not resist and let her touch it obediently.
The city of ten thousand monsters.
The entrance fee is one spirit stone per person. When passing through the city gate, Ye Yuxi felt something sweeping across his body.
Sang Zi, who was holding his sister's hand, said, "There are magic weapons at the gate of Wan Yao City. Those with malicious intent or evil cultivators cannot pass the inspection of the magic weapons."
Ye Yuxi suddenly realized. She looked at the Ice City Gate several times but did not find out what kind of magic weapon it was.
If we knew, we could arrange one for Xitang City.
They passed through the city gate smoothly, but the scene in the city was not what Ye Yuxi had expected.
On the crystal clear streets are teams of demon patrolmen.
The pedestrians looked hurried and nervous.
