This was the Blood-Raging Pill that cultivators consumed when desperately trying to fight. It consumed all their essence and blood, accelerating the recovery and circulation of their mana. However, after consuming it, the body would be weakened for six hours. One had to replenish their essence and blood before taking a second pill, otherwise death was certain.
The deadly threat behind Jiang Yun, sensing the surge in speed of its target, also sped up by three points.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" As Jiang Yun was running away quickly, small fireballs were instantly thrown towards the ground behind him. Suddenly, the sounds of explosions and flames resounded in the depths of Yunluo.
The flames from the explosion instantly blocked the pursuing nameless monster and the small black beast. Feeling the purple flames, they felt a heart-pounding power. The small black beast roared a few times. A moment later, a strange black humanoid appeared beside it.
"Purple fire?!" It looked at the pale purple flame burning in front of it, and gently touched it with its black thorny fingers. Suddenly, the black demonic energy on its fingers began to consume rapidly.
Jiang Yun, who had finally escaped, did not stop at all and fled to the south for an unknown distance of miles.
Hu Ming, who had just escaped from Jiang Yun, was even more cautious this time. He ignored his limited mana and the injuries he sustained, and began to fly rapidly towards the southeast, sticking close to the ground. This was the direction to Ziyang City.
"Hoo! Hoo!" Hu Ming, panting, felt the sound transmission talisman finally reach Ziyang City after flying for who knows how many miles. His eyes suddenly became moist.
"It's finally out! It's out!"
Although he couldn't see Ziyang Mountain yet, he knew that he was not far from Ziyang City.
"A herd of demonic beasts?!"
Hu Ming had just reached the top of a mountain and was stunned when he saw the army of monsters moving southward below.
At this time, Song Chengli and his entire team stopped heading south and turned east instead. After a day of turning back and forth, they finally left the area where the second-level monsters were active and returned to the edge of the Yunluo Mountains.
"Finally, we've left! We can't delay any longer. Let's go back!" After a day of running for our lives, Shen Hao was completely dejected. He looked at the last mountain range before him. Turning around, he could see the plain where the entire Xiuxian City lay.
"Okay! Work harder and try to get back today."
Song Chengli knew everyone was tired, but now was not the time to rest. He surveyed them all before taking the lead and flying low to the top of the mountain.
"Chengli, how is it? Spectacular, right?" Shen Hao watched Song Chengli fly to the top of the mountain, his eyes looking at the direction of Ziyang City in the distance, thinking that he was once again immersed in the shocking scenery. He had such an experience himself. After climbing the mountains for a long time, he suddenly saw a vast plain and a city that looked like a toy. Anyone would appreciate it for a while.
“This…this is!”
Shen Hao and three other cultivators came to the top of the mountain and looked towards Ziyang City. They found that below, there were densely packed monsters, layer upon layer, surrounding the entire northern territory tightly.
"Monsters....attack the city?!"
Several people looked at the huge army of monsters below, and suddenly said in a very low voice, "It has been so many years, and monsters are attacking the city again. I don't know how many people will die this time."
"Martial law is in effect throughout the city. Close the city gates and do not allow any cultivators to leave! Notify the sects."
"Also, send someone to notify the nearby immortal cultivation families and markets, and have them send troops to support us immediately."
Zhenren Haoyi was in Ziyang City and immediately made an announcement. After learning that the monsters were surrounding Ziyang, he sent monks from inside to open the east and west gates, directly reaching two small paths that bypassed Ziyang Mountain.
Compared to other cities, Ziyang City is unique. It's centered around Ziyang Mountain, which then surrounds the southern plains, forming a city. The northern part is surrounded by the steep cliffs of Ziyang Mountain, and coupled with a large protective formation, ordinary monsters cannot enter.
The only drawback is that the two east-west roads leading to Yunluo bypass Ziyang City. In order to prevent monsters from attacking the city, formations were extended on the two roads and two city walls were built that were no lower than Ziyang City.
This is the real battlefield for resisting monsters. If it is lost, the monsters can besiege Ziyang from all sides and roam across the plains, posing a great threat to the various immortal cultivation families and markets there.
"It's over, it's over! The rescue monks are also trapped!"
In the Demon Suppression Division, a group of cultivators from the Zhang family's side branches were walking around like ants on a hot pan. In order to rescue the remaining five cultivators, they sent out a team of five foundation-building cultivators. Now, there were almost no foundation-building cultivators from the Zhang family's side branches left in Ziyang City.
In the worship hall, Jiang Yun was the only one there. Ge Xun also looked at the mountains in the north, feeling extremely worried. He silently prayed for them, hoping for their safe return.
"What should we do?" Hu Ming, Song Chengli and others were all faced with a problem: how to go back, and whether they should go back.
"Go back! Continue east!" Song Chengli observed the densely packed monsters below. Most of them were first-level monsters. However, their number was innumerable, extending along the entire northern part of Ziyang City and extending to the east and west.
He knew that he could only truly escape danger if he truly left the Yunluo Mountains. Without further delay, they returned north and continued eastward, hoping to bypass the isolation of the monster beasts.
Hu Ming, on the other hand, looked at the group of monsters below, tremblingly took out the sound transmission note, and began to contact Jiang Yun.
"Huh!" At this moment, Jiang Yun finally used the Essence Blood Escape to escape from the dangerous situation. He looked at the unfamiliar mountains and valleys, carefully found a hidden cave, and began to recover his Essence Blood and magic power.
"What?! Monsters are attacking the city!" Jiang Yun frowned upon receiving Hu Ming's message. It seemed that heading south wouldn't work. Jiang Yun deduced that his current position might have deviated from the north of Ziyang City, and was now located northwest of the city.
"Meet up first, be careful!" He sent a message to Hu Ming and then quietly waited for him to arrive. Almost three hours later, Hu Ming carefully arrived at Jiang Yun's location.
"Brother Jiang, how are we going to get back?"
Hu Ming looked rather depressed. After all, no one would be excited to see the place where he lived being besieged by monsters.
"Let's recover first and talk tomorrow!" Jiang Yun looked at the night sky, which was already dusk. It was too dangerous to travel at night here. Hu Ming had no choice but to sit down cross-legged and recount his recent experience to Jiang Yun in detail.
