Chapter 36: The Beast King (I)
In the barren forest, countless desolate beasts roared and rushed, like a huge flood, surging from the depths of the barren forest, densely packed, there were tens of thousands.
Chu Yun and Ye Qing stood on a stout giant tree, looking at the wild beasts running wildly under their feet, gasping for air.
"This is the real beast tide, and the beast tide ten days ago can't be compared to this time at all. Chu Yun exclaimed.
"Chu Yun, what did you say happened in the depths of the barren forest, according to the records of the King of Hunting, for hundreds of years, there has never been such a scene. Ye Qing asked.
"I don't know. Chu Yun shook his head, looked at the group of beasts running under his feet, and said, "The most important thing now is where we should go in order to survive this beast tide." ”
"Chu Yun, you decide. Ye Qing was slightly silent, and then suddenly said with a smile.
Chu Yun also smiled: "Aren't you afraid that I will make a mistake in judgment!"
"My life was saved by you, what's so terrible. Ye Qing said.
"Alright, then let's go deep into the woods. Chu Yun pondered for a moment and said: "I met the King Hunter team yesterday, I heard them say that the Marquis of Yuankong and the Lord of Limburg and other martial arts powerhouses have entered the depths of the barren forest to hunt the beast king, at this moment the barren forest is surging, we can't go out at all, it is better to go to the forest, and join the Marquis of Yuankong, maybe there is a chance to live, I think the other king hunting team will also make the same choice as us." ”
"Alright, then we'll go deep into the woods. Ye Qing nodded.
In the depths of the dark barren forest, on top of a high broken wall, more than 20 powerful figures stood quietly, looking at the dark valley under the broken wall with solemn expressions.
"Brother Yuankong, at this time, the beast tide in the barren forest is protruding, it must be related to the beast king in this valley, you see that the heaven and earth vitality outside this valley is constantly converging in the valley, the momentum is huge, it is very likely that the beast king is impacting the realm of Dao Pattern, if it really makes it impact successfully, then it will be a big deal. Lin Hongyi said.
"Hmph, we must not let it succeed!" Yuankong Chengtian snorted coldly: "This evil beast has not yet entered the realm of Dao Pattern and become a demon beast, so he dares to launch a beast tide, if he is really promoted to a demon, it will be a great disaster for my human race, and at this time, only by killing this fang, can we stop the beast tide, otherwise you and I will probably be buried in the boundless beast tide." ”
"Brother Yuankong, then when do we start, the longer it drags on, the more likely this new beast king will be promoted to a demon. Lin Hongyi said.
"Wait a minute, I've already asked Yuankong Chengzhan to find Xiahou Tai, with someone from the City Lord's Mansion joining, our chances of winning can also be more, although that Xiahou Tai doesn't have a big brain, but the force is not low, even compared to you and me, it's about the same. Yuankong Chengtian said.
Lin Hongyi nodded and said: "That's right, although Shu Wei's guy hasn't appeared in the past few years, but with this Xiahou Tai in charge, plus Shu Wei has been accumulating power for a long time, the status of the City Lord's Mansion is still unbreakable, and in recent years, Shu Wei's righteous son Zhao Feichen has gradually grown up, it is not simple, some Shu Wei's demeanor, following Xiahou Tai's side, but making up for Xiahou Tai's strategic shortcomings." ”
"Hmph, Brother Lin, don't worry, as long as my son Chengye can go further and become a true disciple of the Dingyuan faction, what is it to be a mere Shuwei, when Chengye and Hanyue get married, you and I will be in charge of Yuntai City together. Yuankong Chengtian said.
Lin Hongyi nodded when he heard this, and was just about to speak, when he suddenly saw several figures in the distance galloping towards this side quickly, the first one was burly and tall, like a giant spirit god, it was the Xiahou Tai that the two people were talking about, behind Xiahou Tai, followed by several soldiers in heavy armor, walking lightly, crossing hundreds of meters in one step, obviously also a strong man in the building period.
"Brother Yuankong, where is the Beastmaster. As soon as Xiahou Tai arrived, he asked urgently, his eyes burning with fighting intent.
"Brother Xiahou, don't worry, the beast king is in the valley below the mountain wall at the moment, and there are ten leader-level desolate beasts in it to protect the Dharma. Yuankong Chengtian said.
When Xiahou Tai heard this, he immediately pulled out the giant knife that exuded a faint earthy yellow color behind him, and said urgently: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go down and kill the beast king!"
After Xiahou Tai finished speaking, holding a long knife in his hand, he jumped down on the mountain wall hundreds of meters high, and gradually turned into a black dot and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Among the several heavily armored sergeants who came with Xiahou Tai, one of the sergeants stood half a step beyond the other sergeants, and after seeing Xiahou Tai jumping off the mountain wall, he hid on the handsome face behind the iron helmet, his sword eyebrows were furrowed, but he did not rush to jump down, but pressed the worry in his heart, and said to the two of them with both hands in fists: "Lord Yuankong, Lord Limburg, let's go down together, the beast king is at the critical time of rushing through the pass at this time, and it will change later." ”
"Feichen Virtuous Nephew, don't worry, we were also going down with Brother Xiahou, how did we know that Brother Xiahou's desire to kill demons was so urgent. Yuankong Chengtian smiled faintly.
"Then the little nephew will go first!" Zhao Feichen nodded, made a movement to the heavily armored sergeant behind him, and then jumped down the mountain wall, and several heavily armored sergeants behind him also jumped down.
"Let's go too. Yuankong Chengtian and the Lord of Limburg glanced at each other, and commanded to the more than twenty strong people who built the mansion behind him: "In a while, we will attack the leader of the Desolate Beast, and as for the Beast King, let the people from the City Lord's Mansion go to fight the first formation." ”
"Yes, Master Hou. The crowd answered.
In the other direction of the barren forest, Chu Yun and Ye Qing walked cautiously all the way, both of them were extremely astute people, Chu Yun needless to say, Ye Qing was able to survive alone in the beast tide for ten days without being injured with only the cultivation of the triple martial arts, which was enough to prove his extraordinary.
The two cooperated with each other, acted carefully, and walked all the way through the barren forest where the beast tide was surging, but they were all right.
"Chu Yun, look, there is a Tiger Roar Mark of the King Hunter here, and the time left behind should be just half an hour ago. Ye Qing pointed to an imprint on the giant tree and said.
"Great, that means we made the right decision, quick, let's catch up with them. Chu Yun said happily.
The two then walked in the direction indicated by the Tiger Roar Mark, and along the way, the frequency of the Tiger Roar Mark became more and more dense, and after moving forward for dozens of miles, they finally found the traces of the King Hunter on several hundred-zhang giant trees in the distance.
At this time, all the warriors of the King Hunter were concentrated on the trunks of several nearby giant trees, either whispering or sitting quietly, and if they looked closely, there were more than three hundred people.
Chu Yun and Ye Qing were overjoyed when they saw the warriors of the King Hunter, and hurried to the place where the kings gathered, and the many fierce warriors on the giant tree had already seen the traces of the two of them, just because they were wearing the King Hunter suit, they did not stop the two.
But the two of them appeared in the depths of the barren forest where the beast tide broke out with extremely low cultivation, which really surprised everyone.
"Chu Yun, you're all right, great. "Among the warriors of the king hunter, one of them shouted out in surprise after Chu Yun and the others approached, and then jumped out from the crowd of martial artists and greeted the two.
"Brother Wan, it's you, Brother Yi. ”
Chu Yun saw a burly black-armored martial artist running towards him excitedly, and at a glance he recognized this person as Wan Zhanping, who he met in the forest the day before, and he was also extremely happy in his heart, and couldn't help but answer loudly.
Wan Zhanping came closer, patted Chu Yun on the shoulder vigorously, and laughed: "I'll just say that you kid, you can't die, what about the leader of the desolate beast, our little Chu Yun can also repel it, and he can't beat that guy, he has a sad face for the past two days, how can I have confidence in you." ”
"Brother Wan, it's a joke, if it wasn't for the fact that the desolate beast was seriously injured before, how could I survive, and it wouldn't be enough to plug its teeth. Chu Yun still had palpitations in his heart.
When Wan Zhanping heard this, his expression was also rare and dignified, with a look of approval and gratitude in his eyes, and said: "Don't look at Lao Wan's low strength, but I really haven't admired a few people from the bottom of my heart in this life, but you Chuyun and I admire it very much, at such a young age, you dare to fight the leader of the wild beast alone, this courage is really rare, I Lao Wan owes you a life today, you will come to me whenever you have anything in the future, not only me, but also the brothers present that day, all have nothing to say." ”
Chu Yun waved his hand and said, "Brother Wan, what you said is serious, I was also working hard for myself that day, you don't have to take it to heart." ”
"Hey, what I Lao Wan said, but I can't take it back, this time the matter of the beast tide is over, go back to Yuntai City, let's have a good drink." Wan Zhanping laughed and said: "If you see you in a while, I don't know what I will be happy about, oh, by the way, the eldest prince also has a very good impression of you, and in the past two days, I have sent a lot of people to look for you." ”
As soon as Wan Zhanping opened his mouth, he was endless, but Chu Yun also knew the situation in the first place from his words, all the martial arts powerhouses above the triple level of the Yuankong Marquis Mansion and the Lin Family Fort, all entered the deeper part of the barren forest to kill the beast king, the eldest prince Yuankong Chengren was worried about the safety of his father Yuankong Chengtian, and his injuries were slightly better, so he took some warriors from the early stage of the mansion and marched to the depths of the barren forest, and the remaining martial artists, because their cultivation was too low, could not be of much use in the battle with the leader-level desolate beasts, so they could only wait in place.
When Chu Yun and Wan Zhanping were talking, many martial artists who were present that day came one after another, all of them expressed their admiration and gratitude to Chu Yun, and the situation that day, if there was really any accident in Yuankong Chengye, not only would they be to blame, but their family would also be implicated, so they were extremely grateful to Chu Yun.
At the same time, he was also extremely curious about the situation after Chu Yun was taken away by the two-winged demon ape that day, and Chu Yun could only tell the situation that day, but he concealed the fact that the two-winged demon ape was killed by himself, and only said that he was later thrown off the back by the demon ape, and the demon ape rushed into the forest and disappeared.
Although what Chu Yun said was light, everyone could imagine the thrilling moment at that time, and Ye Qing didn't know until this time that Chu Yun dared to fight the leader of the desolate beast alone, and he admired Chu Yun even more in his heart.
"Brother Yi only has the sevenfold cultivation of martial arts, how can he enter the depths of the barren forest with the eldest prince!" Chu Yunqi said.
