Chapter 440: The True Murderer
A black dragon flew into the sky, its mouth wide open, and it spewed out a huge amount of strange gases. Mr. Kiji's wind, thunder, fire, poison, meteorite, and flowers and leaves were all wrapped in gas.
In the other direction, the two giant deer waved their antlers, and the mountains shook and countless stone thorns flew out from under the ground, counterattacking at the same time as the Black Dragon Limit and the treasures of Mr. Wood Two.
Mr. Mu Er put his sleeves in a hall and rolled all the stone thorns in. However, there were too many top-level desolate beasts in the front, and even he couldn't block them all.
The forces were so scattered that the beast herd finally got a chance to take advantage of it, and casualties really began to appear in the rear.
And after the death, everyone's hearts that had finally regained their composure became flustered again. It seems that none of the top masters of the Holy Dragon can protect them well.
Although Mr. Kiji and the others were in a hurry, they had to eat the food bite by bite, and the fierce beasts had to be swept away one by one.
It would be nice if there was any force that could stop the fierce beast herd from rushing into the city nowβFang Qinglong and the others couldn't help but have this unrealistic thought in their hearts.
They knew that there were good-looking and lively hunters who were farther away from the city, but it was already a miracle that they could survive under the tide of fierce beasts rushing into the city, how could they be expected to do more.
However, there was a sudden chaos behind the fierce beasts that were charging into formation, and the power of extreme cold covered a large group of fierce beasts, which not only caused the speed of their impact to stagnate, but also attracted the attention of some top-level desolate beasts.
"Chance!" Mr. Kiji ignored why they were stagnant, and quickly took the opportunity to break free of all the orbs, and at the same time smashed his body towards the black dragon with his body, smashing its huge dragon body alive!
With one foot out, Mr. Kiji was able to penetrate his spiritual power into the middle of their formation from such a distance. The ground thorn technique of the two old deer was completely suppressed, and it could no longer be practiced. And the orb arcs through the air, and the second wave will send them on their way.
Xu Ye and Fang Qingxue approached silently from the side, just in time to look at the overall situation, of course, they easily found out where the weak point of the fierce beast impact was, and how large they were behind them.
With their already rich experience in facing demons on the front line, the two accurately identified the weaknesses of the fierce beast group, and launched the strongest attack in the gap between the two waves of fierce beasts.
Not only does the power of the Frost Thunder Sword cause massive damage, but it also slows them down and makes them easier to be zone-locked. The ice dissipated, and the thunder of the Nine Nights reappeared in the air, rushing over the top desolate beast at the front in the middle.
The power of the Frost Thunder Sword was too weird, even it didn't guard against the second wave of thunder is the strongest attack, and when it was not prepared, it suffered a big loss and was tacitly killed by Fang Qingxue to make up for the attack.
The simple group of fierce beasts is less stressful for their strength, but the sudden killing threat of these top-level desolate beasts hiding in them is too great.
Every top-level beast killed is a very good piece of battle information.
And Xu Ye and Fang Qingxue are not rigid. They knew that Fang Qinglong and the others were much stronger than themselves, and they didn't need their "help" to completely deal with the fierce beast herd in front of them.
After the first blow was successful, the two of them galloped backwards at the same time, and with their individual strength, they broke away from the pursuit of other wild beasts and caused trouble to the attacking beast group further behind.
The intelligence of the beast herd is extremely low, and no matter who "loads" them this time, it is impossible to change a lot of habits. For example, the group of fierce beasts in the back definitely didn't care about the casualties of the same kind in front of them now, and were about to use their courage to break through the outskirts of the Holy Mountain City with the corpses of the same kind in front of them.
Therefore, before the companions in front of them were killed, they would not have thought that there would be human masters coming from the front!
The two of them attacked together, and then struck away, constantly slowing down the speed and power of the impact of the fierce beast herd. They also have powerful characters with extremely high realms in their formations.
But they rushed out and wanted to defeat Xu Ye and Fang Qingxue, which only made their own formation even more chaotic. Objectively, it weakened the power of his companions to storm the city.
Xu Ye and Fang Qingxue seemed to be relaxed and slippery, but they knew very well that they were playing, and the more they played, the greater the risk.
Because when they are forced to strike away, they will go deeper, into the heart of the beast!
It is true that the fierce beast group is indeed concentrated, and if it encounters a wild beast that is impacting in other directions and is entangled, it will inevitably fall into the fate of running out of strength alive and then being trampled to death by the group.
However, at this moment, the willows and flowers were bright, and they suddenly saw the last part of the desolate beast herd!
Fang Qingxue rubbed her eyes in shock to make sure she was not mistaken. After that, I really couldn't see the smoke and dust flying where the desolate beasts passed, and everything was destroyed.
"What the hell is going on!The scale of the Fierce Beast Rushing City is much smaller than we imagined!" Fang Qingxue was so surprised that she wanted to ask Xu Ye, who had no experience in this area, for her opinion.
After listening to her explanation, Xu Ye muttered: "There is indeed a much more terrifying aura in the group of desolate beasts that we didn't dare to provoke just now, and it is likely that it is the top master of the fierce beast rushing to the city this time. But with such strength, it is absolutely impossible to defeat the Lord of the Holy Dragon!"
According to the most desperate possibility, this wave of fierce beasts can last for seven days and seven nights! Coupled with the fact that they can concentrate their forces under certain commands, it is really possible for the Holy Mountain City to be broken through.
"That means they didn't take the best chance, but how do you explain it?"
Xu Ye smiled: "Didn't you say it yourself? In addition to the fierce beast group being able to command itself, there is also a possibility that someone is driving them behind!"
"What are you talking about! How can anyone do this!" Fang Qingxue felt like she was listening to a myth.
Humans can indeed make a pact with the beasts, and some of their souls are in the shape of the beasts. But when it comes to humans being able to drive out wild beasts on such a large scale and impact them according to their own will, it's too difficult to operate, right?
Gathering so many fierce beasts in front of you requires terrifying human resources and time, and Sacred Mountain City can't do it by itself, and there is no other force around it that can do it.
"Just look ahead. If my guess is correct, they want to reach a way to drive away the beast, and even if there is a secret method, they can't be too far apart!"
The initiative of the two had already bought Fang Qinglong and the others a lot of time to stay outside the city. Now they have more energy to check their guesses.
Fang Qingxue's suspicion of Xu Ye's guess quickly turned into shock and admiration. Not far behind, there were thousands of people divided into a certain formation, each holding a small drum with a peculiar pattern and an even more peculiar effect, wanting to rely on this method to drive the fierce beasts in front of them to attack the Holy Mountain City!
"Is there really someone driving the group of fierce beasts, and they are still using this inexplicable method?" The picture in front of him subverted Fang Qingxue's cognition for many years.
Ridiculous "drums".
If you can command the desolate beast just by relying on this ridiculous "drum", then why did the Holy Mountain City work so hard for so many years, bloody and sweaty to resist the fierce beast rushing into the city?
"Calm down!, they didn't rely on this thing to influence the desolate beasts!" Xu Ye held down the emotional Fang Qingxue and pointed ahead, "Look, there are so many desolate beast corpses in the distance, they died from the devastating blow of the master!"
"That'...... That is, there are stronger masters behind them. They used powerful suppression from all over the place, forcing the desolate beasts to be driven together by them at a huge cost in their lives, and then launched a powerful assault on the Holy Mountain City according to the formation of the mastermind behind the scenes. β
"I know it's hard to accept, but it seems like it's the only way to go. β
Even Xu Ye smiled bitterly. Although this statement is more reliable than what "drum" drives, it is still difficult for the people of Holy Mountain City to accept.
The key is to gather the wild beasts......
The place where the beasts live is not a paradise. They gathered such a large number of desolate beasts here, which must mean that they had killed countless desolate beasts on a larger scale, including the top desolate beasts among them, in order to achieve their goals!
This area has always been within the radiation of the Holy Mountain City, and the Holy Mountain City is the strongest defensive force in this area. But now, someone has done something that even they could hardly imagine.
What does this mean!
"Could it be...... It's the so-called Shang Tu Sect!"
Xu Ye and Fang Qingxue's minds thought of this force at the same time. A hundred years ago, they were part of the Holy Mountain City. Moreover, they were able to fight each other at the beginning, forming a confrontation, so that they completely split the Holy Mountain City.
That is to say, at least a hundred years ago, the high-end combat power they possessed was not weaker than that of the Holy Dragon Peak! And now it has been a hundred years, and it is very difficult to predict how far their strength has developed.
"However, they are now targeting the Holy Mountain City! and through the Desolate Beast!" Fang Qingxue understood intellectually, but it was difficult to accept emotionally.
"Wasn't this once their home!"
Xu Ye sighed: "Don't forget, it's been a hundred years! Everyone knows what kind of world the wild beasts and demons in the outside world are. They left the protection of the Holy Mountain City, and wanted to survive, gain a foothold, and even grow stronger, and I am afraid that they would experience things that we could not imagine. And there may be a shift in course, or it may be more accumulating hatred. β
Now that he finally understood why the Holy Dragon Peak was so nervous after knowing the news of Shang Tuzong's return, they were probably already thinking of all kinds of possibilities.
It's just that I'm afraid that even Fang Qinglong wouldn't have thought that even the fierce beasts rushing into the city this time were all made by Shang Tuzong, and they were doing a good job.
At that time, even if all the fierce beasts in the Holy Mountain City were destroyed, their own strength would be consumed and there would be a large number of casualties.
Even in the best case scenario, Shang Tu Sect would not have just "returned" and started a war with the top of the Holy Dragon. In terms of momentum, they also took advantage of this fierce beast to storm the city and gain the upper hand!
"We have to do something. At the very least, figure out the true purpose of the Shang Tu Sect and the strength of the faction. Only understand these two points. In order to make the top of the Holy Dragon advance and retreat with a good basis and understand what position to take. β
