Chapter 559: Meeting the Beast Tide
The people who set off together were Lan Qian, Jiang Qiuming, Xue Xiuyu, Mei Meng and Uncle Kun. Among them, Xue Xiuyu plans to return to the Ice Dome directly after crossing the 80,000 Thousand Mountains, and she needs to tell the Jiang family's decision to the clansmen, which is good news.
Jiang Qiuming wanted to accompany Xue Xiuyu to the ice dome, and the latter agreed. This situation made Lan Qian feel a little surprised, but if the two of them could really come together, it would be good.
Uncle Kun is Jiang Qiuming's long-term guard, and he will follow Jiang Qiuming wherever he goes.
Finally, there was Mei Meng, his destination was Guizong Linhai, and he wanted to go with Lan Qian, so he set off together.
With their different purposes, a group of five people walked out of Tianyun City and headed towards the east of the Jiang family's region, which was June 1493 in the East China Sea Era.
Riding Jiang Qiuming's luxurious Tissot, Lan Qian and the other five quickly flew towards Withered Leaf City.
The Ice Dome is located in the northeast of the Jiang Family Region, so the 80,000 Mountain area that Lan Qian and the others are going to this time is different from the last time, and the cities they pass through are also different.
Both Dead Leaf City and Rising Sun City are adjacent to the 80,000 Mountains, with Dead Leaf City located in the northern part of Rising Sun City and is also a prosperous city.
Jiang Qiuming's luxury Tissot was extremely fast, but it would take about ten days to reach Dead Leaf City. The road is long, and Lan Qian can only study the illusion realm martial arts to pass the time.
Ever since he had seen the spatial boundary wall in the small space of the long river of chaos, Lan Qian had understood a lot of things. The so-called construction of space is not to construct a so-called "wall" to enclose a space, but to construct a spatial substance, a unique spatial material that is completely controlled by oneself.
Space is ethereal, and it is not easy to construct space matter. Fortunately, what Lan Qian wants to construct is not a real space, but a virtual world space, which is much simpler for Lan Qian, who is a soul master and has mastered the charm of space. Moreover, Lan Qian still has a fantasy picture scroll in his hand to refer to, and he has absorbed the sub-fire of the Nine Ghost Fires, and has a space experience that is rare for ordinary people.
In the Divine Monument space, Lan Qian's first soul clone and second soul clone were in full research, and they were using illusion martial arts on each other, each experimenting with the effect. Lan Qian's body is also pondering and researching, communicating with the soul clone from time to time.
A few days later, the virtual world space is preliminarily constructed, and when it is displayed, the other party will feel that they are in a new space, which is very real. At this time, Lan Qian began to use Jiang Qiuming, Mei Meng and others as guinea pigs to see how effective it was.
The test is divided into four ways: physical contact + relaxation of vigilance, non-contact + relaxation of vigilance, physical contact + full mental vigilance, no contact + full mental vigilance. The results proved that the success rate under physical contact + relaxation of vigilance was 100%, the probability of success under no contact + relaxation of vigilance was 90%, the success rate under physical contact + full vigilance plummeted to 60%, and the success rate of no contact + full vigilance was the lowest, only 50%.
The results were a little less than perfect, but Lan Qian was quite satisfied. Next, he has to do two things, one is to increase the success rate, and the other is to build illusions in the virtual world space. Among them, the success rate is increased by repeated practice, and the construction of illusions can be borrowed from the Eye of Illusion, or the Eye of Illusion can be fused into it. Once both of these are achieved perfectly, the illusion martial art is half the battle!
Illusion is not the same as the Dream of the Wind, it is not hypnosis, but it makes your soul sink hard. It's not the same as fantasy paintings, because fantasy scrolls won't make you lose yourself, and you still know very well that you're in a fantasy world, unless you're addicted to it for a long time, resulting in no distinction between reality and fantasy.
Illusion requires the other person to sink and lose themselves, and they don't feel anything, which is much more difficult. How to not let the other party notice and enter the illusion world, this is what Lan Qian needs to work on.
Soul Master, an awe-inspiring profession, although Jiang Qiuming and Mei Meng are both Martial Emperors, they still have jealousy in their eyes when they look at Lan Qian. Out of curiosity, they asked Lan Qian to experience the offensive soul technique, and Lan Qian satisfied them, which is why they were so jealous.
"Perverted!"
"Perverted!"
"Perverted!"
This is the evaluation that Lan Qian received.
......
Jiang Qiuming's luxury Tissot is very large, the location is spacious, and it is very comfortable to sit and lie down. On this day, Lan Qian looked down from Tissot and saw an army marching below, which surprised him very much.
"How can there be an army?" Lan Qian asked.
"You disappeared more than a month ago, and my father began to use the army to search for you. Now that you have returned safely, these troops may have just received orders and are on their way back. Jiang Qiuming explained.
"I see!"
However, it didn't take long for Lan Qian to see another army marching, marching in the same direction as the previous army.
The further they went, the more frequently Lan Qian and the others encountered troops, and they encountered more than a dozen troops before and after arriving at Withered Leaf City!
"This is not right!" Lan Qian said.
"It's really not right, all the armies are going to the same place!" Jiang Qiuming continued.
"Dead Leaf City!"
Everyone finally realized that something had happened to Dead Leaf City.
A day later, when Lan Qian and the others arrived in Withered Leaf City, they saw a dense mass of countless troops!
"This ...... There's an army of millions, right, what's going on?"
"Go down and have a look!"
The luxurious Tissot landed and attracted the attention of many people, among which Yu Xiaohai, the city lord of Withered Leaf City, also came. When he saw Jiang Qiuming, Mei Meng, Uncle Kun and others coming out of Tissot, he was so excited that he jumped up.
"Seventh Prince, Mei Gongzi, Uncle Kun, you are really timely, your subordinates just sent out a distress letter five days ago, I didn't expect you to come so soon!" Yu Xiaohai was very excited, but he obviously misunderstood, Lan Qian and they were simply passing by.
Lan Qian and his party were five people, Yu Xiaohai only knew Jiang Qiuming, Mei Meng and Uncle Kun, and he didn't know Lan Qian and Xue Xiuyu. However, when he finished speaking, he found that among the five people, standing in the middle was Lan Qian, whom he didn't know, and this person he looked at and felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere?
Could it be that this person is the head of the five? Yu Xiaohai couldn't help but guess.
Sure enough, Jiang Qiuming and Mei Meng didn't speak, but set their eyes on Lan Qian. Lan Qian understood what they meant, and this was a recognition and respect for his identity.
"What's going on?" Lan Qian asked.
Yu Xiaohai searched quickly in his mind, trying to remember the strange son in front of him. Suddenly, he noticed that Lan Qian's strength was not like that of the Martial Emperor, and only then did he suddenly think of a person and a task he had received recently. At that moment, he hurriedly replied: "Qi Qi Lan Ye, there is a problem in the Withered Leaf City, and there is a beast tide in the direction of the 80,000 Thousand Mountains!"
The title of Lan Ye made Lan Qian quite unaccustomed to it, but as Jiang Ju's junior brother, he really deserved this title. Of course, the title is secondary, and the beast tide is what surprises Lan Qian.
"Why is there a beast tide?" Lan Qian asked.
"My subordinates don't know, but the situation I have now is that the million beast tide has captured several small towns near the 80,000 mountains, and they are currently attacking the withered leaf city, and they will arrive in less than two days!" Yu Xiaohai replied truthfully.
"Millions of Beast Tide ??!!" Jiang Qiuming suddenly became excited. This is a scene that he can't see even in the 80,000 mountains, and the mere imagination makes him excited.
"This million is only an estimate, some people say that there are demon beasts coming out of the 80,000 mountains in a steady stream, countless!" Yu Xiaohai couldn't understand Jiang Qiuming's excitement, but he could only say it truthfully.
"Have you ever had a beast tide before?" Lan Qian asked with a frown.
"Yes!" Yu Xiaohai immediately replied, "My subordinates just looked through the history books, and since the beginning of the year, there have been many examples of 80,000 mountains launching beast tides to attack human cities, for various reasons, including the angry beast tide caused by the revenge of the demon beasts, the conspiracy beast tide secretly controlled by the beast master, and the monster beast escape beast tide caused by the madness of the demon emperor. The last beast tide was 352 years ago, but it was not in the Jiang family's region, because the two peak martial emperors broke out in a shocking battle in the 80,000 mountains, and countless demon beasts were frightened and fled one after another, thus triggering the beast tide. ”
"That's not unusual, but what could be the reason for this beast tide?" Lan Qian pondered.
"Master Lan, the reason doesn't matter now, the important thing is that there are several powerful demon emperors in this beast tide, each of them is a high-level martial emperor strength, and their strength is approaching the peak of the emperor level!" Yu Xiaohai weakly reminded.
"What is our strength now?" Lan Qian asked.
"In terms of numbers, we have assembled as many troops as we can gather in the vicinity, which is expected to reach one and a half million. But the number of beast tides is still unknown, and it is still unknown whether the 1.5 million army can withstand it. In terms of high-level combat power, at present, the high-level Martial Emperor only has his subordinates and the other two scattered cultivators who came to support, and there are only four of them including Uncle Kun, I'm afraid it's still not enough. There are 47 low-level martial emperors, plus Lan Ye and other princes, the number is only half a hundred, I'm afraid it's not enough. "Yu Xiaohai is most worried about this, but fortunately, now that Lan Qian and the others are here, his burden can finally be handed over.
When King Wu was promoted to Queen Wu, the number of classes was no longer the fifth order, but only the fourth order, that is, the first-order Martial Emperor to the fourth-order Martial Emperor, and then the Martial Emperor. Among the four tiers of Martial Emperors, the first-order Martial Emperor and the second-order Martial Emperor were called low-rank Martial Emperors, and the third-order Martial Emperor and the fourth-order Martial Emperor were called high-rank Martial Emperors. The so-called Peak Martial Emperor or Emperor-level Peak or Peak Demon Emperor, their strength is the top existence in the Imperial Rank, and there are very few opponents in the entire Emperor-level class.
Now, there are several Demon Emperors whose strength is close to the peak of the beast tide, which is indeed very terrifying. In this case, unless there is a peak martial emperor like Mei Yuchen Mei Ye or Zhou Shuhao and Old Man Zhou, no one dares to protect the Withered Leaf City from failing.
"The situation is indeed grim, how are those towns that have been captured now?" Lan Qian then asked.
"The captured towns have basically been razed to the ground, and we have received a lot of warriors and civilians who have taken refuge in the past few days. Of course, there are also some people who feel that Dead Leaf City is not safe enough and choose to retreat farther away. The subordinates have thought about avoiding the edge for the time being, but Withered Leaf City is a big city, with a population of billions, and the vast majority of them are very ordinary warriors and ordinary people, so it is difficult to transfer them within a few days. Therefore, there is no way for the subordinates to retreat, as the city lord, the subordinates can only resist to the end!" Yu Xiaohai's expression was very firm, and Lan Qian looked very admiring.
This is indeed the case, from the East China Sea to the land of the Imperial War, and then to the Xuanhuang War Realm, the territory is getting wider and wider, the cities are getting bigger and bigger, and the population is getting bigger and bigger. Looking at the city in front of him, Lan Qian's eyes became more and more worried!
