135 monsters besieged the city
Mo Li, who flew out of the town, looked at the black suppressed demon beasts outside the defense array, and couldn't help but feel numb in her heart, if she couldn't guess why the defense array would be open all the time, why the prices in Xiche Town were so high, and why were these monks who lived in the formation forcibly called to meet the enemy, then she would not be worthy of cultivating to this point today, and it is estimated that she would have died on the way to cultivation a long time ago.

However, looking at these black and oppressive demon beasts in front of him, although Mo Li was a little surprised and helpless in his heart, he did not hesitate at all, after all, looking at the past, there were mostly second-order demon beasts in this beast group, and the third-order was relatively few, and the fourth-order equivalent to the human Yuan Infant Monk was even less than two hands, and he also stayed in the rear, and did not come to the vicinity of the defensive array of Xiche Town, thinking that he was commanding these low-level demon beasts in front of him with low spiritual intelligence.
In Xiche Town, except for Mo Li, the Yuanying Monk who will be cultivated into the middle stage of the Jiedan, there are only five Yuanying Monks who appear around at this time, although there are fewer than the demon beasts, but after all, the monks have a large defensive array, and the strength of the two sides seems to be almost equal on the surface.
For the mortals and monks in Xiche Town, this scene is no longer strange, although many people have a look of worry in their eyes, but everyone's actions are orderly, at this time all the monks have appeared outside the walls of Xiche Town, but they have not left the range of the protective array, and those mortals have long since evacuated back to their residences.
For mortals, whether it is the monk's side that defends Xiche Town, or the demon beast's side that breaks through the defensive array, as long as they are not affected to death by the spells of the two sides, there is not much difference for them, after all, even if the demon beast breaks through the protective array, their target is also these monks who are rich in spiritual power in their bodies, and they are not interested in them mortals, and in the end, at most, they will be enslaved.
I don't know if the fourth-order demon beasts hidden in the rear gave an order at the same time, or the low-level demon beasts in front were affected by their companions, they actually began to rush towards the defense array of Xiche Town together, which can be described as a beast crowding beasts and crowding, and the human monks didn't need to wait for orders, seeing the demon beasts rushing over, everyone rushed out of the big array together, and pounced on the demon beasts one by one and began to fight.
Even people like Mo Li, who came to Demon Spirit Island for the first time and came to Xiche Town for the first time, also knew that it was impossible to sit back and watch the demon beasts attack and defend the big array, otherwise once the reliance of these human monks was broken, they would only have the only way to flee and be slaughtered by the demon beasts.
Mo Li's strength was naturally not afraid of these low-level demon beasts, and she didn't hesitate at all when she saw that others had rushed out of the protective array. Although the innkeeper where she lives said that saving her life is the most important thing, and the materials are still secondary, but the group attack of these low-level demon beasts is impossible to endanger Mo Li's life, and she naturally will not give up the various demon beast materials she should have obtained, although most of them are only second-order, but after all, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat.
The situation on Demon Spirit Island is still almost in a state of blackening her eyes, so it won't be too much, after all, she is pretending to be a mid-stage cultivator at this time, and it would be bad if it catches attention, so the magic power she casts is almost the same as that of ordinary Jiedan monks, and the ones she kills are basically second-order demon beasts.
Mo Li's flying sword was exhausted when the Nine Beads Lianxing Sword Array was destroyed before, and after that, although she got their net worth from a few Yuanying cultivators, there were no good swords among them, so at this time, she was holding a snake whip with a low-grade spirit weapon, but it was also quite suitable for this kind of large-scale melee situation.
With one whip, you can sweep and injure several demon beasts, and the lethality is not exaggerated, and you can also save a lot of mana.
Although the monk's side is far inferior to the demon beasts in terms of numbers, it is more flexible than those demon beasts that are in groups, and their intelligence is not on the same level.
On the other hand, on the side of the demon beasts, the groups rushing in front were all the lowest-level demon beasts, and their spiritual wisdom was not fully opened, they only knew that they obeyed the orders of the high-level demon beasts, and they simply didn't care about life or death, and blindly rushed towards the defense array of Xiche Town with brute force.
As long as the monks do not block their way, they will not know how to take the initiative to attack, and will only passively resist, and the casualties will naturally be much greater than those on the monk's side.
Mo Li will also return to the protective array to rest after attacking for a while, during which he carefully observed the demon beasts outside with his divine sense, those high-level demon beasts still only stayed in the rear and did not make a move at all, and the few Yuan Infant Breaths in Xiche Town also only stayed in the town, and they did not make a move once during the period, and the high-level strength of both sides seemed to be waiting for something.
When Mo Li was resting, he saw that the owner of the inn where he lived had also returned to rest in the defense array of Xiche Town, so he leaned up again and asked, "Shopkeeper, do these demon beasts often come to attack Xiche Town?" Why did they just blindly send low-level demon beasts to attack and defend the big array? This is a complete death! ”
The shopkeeper naturally knew that Mo Li was new to Demon Spirit Island, and he didn't know the situation here at all, so he couldn't help but sigh and said faintly, "Do you think we have an advantage now, these demon beasts are just sending us materials?" ”
Mo Li didn't say anything, but nodded in acknowledgement.
The shopkeeper also seemed to have expected Mo Li's thoughts, and he was not surprised, "Where is this demon beast siege so simple, in our monk town on Demon Spirit Island, we will encounter such a situation several times a year.
But do you know that the original Demon Spirit Island was not the realm of demon beasts, but a place where the two races of human and demon lived together? After tens of thousands of years, the human monks died and fled, and a town like Xiche Town on Demon Spirit Island did not know how much it had perished......
What you see now is only the situation at the beginning of the siege of the demon beasts, for us human monks, if we can't kill more demon beasts at the beginning and don't take advantage of it, then we don't have to wait until the end of the town to be breached, and we monks can't escape only to become food in the mouths of those demon beasts......"
"Oh? What does the shopkeeper say about this? Why is it that we can take advantage of the advantage at the beginning but not be too optimistic about the result, I listen to you that it seems that the monsters tend to turn defeat into victory in the future? ”
"Alas! Where is it, do you think that every time they besiege us, there is only this monster? These are just low-level cannon fodder, only used to consume our mana and the supply of spirit stones for the large array, and when our mana and spirit stones are almost consumed, their high-level demon beasts will launch a full-scale attack, and many of the slaughtered monk towns have gone through such a process. ”
After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper stopped talking, but concentrated on meditating to recover his mana, after all, they couldn't rest for too long when they returned to the big array, otherwise everyone would have no one to face the enemy outside at all.
Mo Li roughly asked what he wanted to ask, and it was not good to delay the time for others to meditate and recover their mana, after all, the innkeeper had only only built the foundation for the cultivation in the later stage, and in the face of a large number of demon beasts, even if the other party's spiritual intelligence was not high, the mana consumption was quite huge.
In this way, waves of monks took turns to rest, and most of the demon beasts that were originally dense and almost next to each other were also killed and injured, but although the monks' side seemed to have the advantage at the beginning, Mo Li slowly sensed that something was wrong.
As the battle between the two sides progressed, there was a steady stream of demon beasts to join, and I don't know if it was their habit to let those low-level cannon fodder be sent to death first, or whether the high-level demon beasts were disdainful of making a move at the beginning, and more and more third-order demon beasts slowly joined the battle, although the number was far less than the second-order demon beasts at the beginning, but because the level was one level higher, the combat effectiveness was naturally not the same.
In contrast, the number of monks who can fight in Xiche Town is fixed, and as the consumption of battle is constantly decreasing, it cannot be replenished at all.
At this time, the battle between the two sides has been reversed from the battle between the demon beast and the human race at the beginning, and the human monk needs several foundation building monks to join forces to be able to resist the attack of a third-order demon beast, and the manpower is already obviously insufficient, and the number of casualties is constantly rising with the addition of the third-order demon beast.
And this is the beginning of a vicious circle, the lack of strength leads to an increase in casualties; The increase in casualties has led to a shortage of manpower; In the case of insufficient manpower, there will be fewer opportunities to return to Xiche Town to repair, but this will undoubtedly lead to a large number of monks' mana replenishment speed not being able to keep up with the consumption at all, and the strength will be greatly reduced, and they will be even more invincible to demon beasts.
At this time, Mo Li understood why, even though the monks' side had the advantage at the beginning, most of the monks had no joy in their eyes, and they all showed a worried look on their faces.
has past experience, even if he hasn't personally experienced being besieged by demon beasts, none of these monks who have been on Demon Spirit Island for a while have never heard of it.
What's more, there are many people who have been besieged by demon beasts in the monk town of Demon Spirit Island, and there are a few people who have never experienced it at all, and it is estimated that only Mo Li has just arrived on Demon Spirit Island for a few days.
At this time, Mo Li also had to show his strength beyond that of ordinary mid-stage cultivators, after all, at this time, in the face of the attacks of a large number of third-order demon beasts, there were very few monks who could still play well, and the others were tired of coping, and it would be good to be able to save their lives without dying.
But Mo Li didn't want the first town she arrived to be breached like this, so she had to continue to look for the next town to find out the news, not to mention that everyone was a human monk after all, and she didn't want to watch her own kind being slaughtered, especially after seeing the tragic situation of those demon beasts directly devouring the body of the human monk and the golden pill.
It is fair to think that the way of heaven is that human monks hunt demon beasts to obtain materials, which can be used to refine magic weapons, draw talismans, and alchemy, while demon beasts can also hunt humans and devour their flesh and blood, and golden pills to improve their cultivation.
The two sides can be said to be the existence of natural enemies of each other in nature, as long as the two sides exist, the cultivation realm will continue to stage the drama of you killing and I killing back, so that the number of the two races has also been extremely controlled.
Although this kind of mutual hunting seems extremely cruel, the total reserves of spiritual power in the cultivation realm are limited after all, if the two sides do not fight each other and control the quantity, then there will be more and more monks and demon beasts who need to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for cultivation.
But the more limited resources are distributed to the more people, the less everyone will get, and then it will be more difficult for top-notch existences to appear in this world, and even if you think to the extreme, everyone may stay in the Qi refining period and the first order, and then you can't improve your cultivation mana, and become the same as you and me.
When Mo Li thought of this, a strange thought arose in his heart.
Everyone naturally thinks that the battle and slaughter between humans and demon beasts are due to nature, and they are the rules set by the Heavenly Dao, but what if it is not the established rules of the Heavenly Dao? What if some people deliberately did it in order to control the spiritual power between heaven and earth not to be evenly divided, and to maintain a high concentration of spiritual power in this world?
What kind of existence would such a person be? What is their ultimate goal?
Thinking about it carefully, Mo Li was extremely frightened, and he did not want to imagine and even less believe that the confrontation between the two races was actually just the result of some people's deliberate actions.
Mo Li shook her head, throwing those thoughts that suddenly popped up out of her mind, at this time she didn't have to think about it so much, and even these didn't have much to do with her, after all, her cultivation strength was there, compared to those powerhouses in the spirit world, and even in the fairy world, she was not much different from those mortal ants, even if her guess might be true, she couldn't make any changes to the current situation.
What's more, to be selfish, Mo Liwei is to ascend and live forever, and the premise of all this is the continuous improvement of cultivation, and the higher the concentration of aura, the more beneficial it will be for her. The two clans of the shemales are opposed, constantly consuming each other's numbers, and at the same time returning a large amount of heaven and earth aura to nature, which is a good thing for them high-level monks.
The monk fights with the sky, the earth, and the people, in order to plunder resources, help himself continue to cultivate, improve his cultivation, and finally reach the realm of longevity with heaven and earth, compared to mortals, he may be more selfish and selfish, so Mo Li's idea is not deviant, it can even be said to be extremely ordinary, she is not too entangled in this, at this time the important thing is the battle in front of her, not the root cause of all this.
Mo Li thought about it for a while, but when he woke up, he saw that two third-order demon beasts were actually besieging him, and the claws of one of the demon beasts were almost grabbing his face, and the other one also opened his blood basin and bit her, Mo Li couldn't help but use his mana to push the somersault cloud to flash.
Mo Li was almost injured because of her stunned mind, but fortunately she was awake in time, and she had a somersault cloud that was known for her speed, although it was dangerous and dangerous, but it was also completely dodged and unharmed, and the two demon beasts besieging Mo Li saw her dodging, and couldn't help but be furious, and let out an angry roar and rushed over.
