The tide of beasts is like locusts passing through the border, and no grass grows everywhere they go, like mad demons, demon beasts will devour everything that can be devoured.

Flowers, trees, and cultivators who didn't have time to escape were crushed and torn by them and swallowed into their stomachs, leaving mottled traces of chaos on the vast desert to prove that they had come.

The news of the arrival of the beast tide spread quickly, perhaps because too many mercenary organizations had already left the border city but turned back at a very fast speed, and they were all full of panic, and the others didn't need to look carefully to know that they were either attacked by bandits or encountered the beast tide.

Even the border city got the news of the coming beast tide earlier than Su You and his party returned to the border city.

When Su You and his party returned to the border city in a hurry, they saw that the entire border city had begun martial law, because the border city itself was established by the Lin family, one of the four major families of the Tiandu Ling Mansion, so a large number of cultivators wearing the Lin family's costumes led a large number of mercenary organizations have begun to arrange various traps and formations inside and outside the border city, and all the highest combat power in the city at this moment has been arranged on the city wall, ready to face the surging beast tide at any time.

At the same time, the gates in all four directions have also begun to be closed.

"Daddy, can we go back to the village now?"

"Dad, have any of the people in the village been brought to the city?"

At this time, Li Tiankai and Li Yiru stood beside their father Li Gukai respectively, looking at the heavy city gate that was gradually closing, and asked worriedly: "If the beast tide will really come to the border city, is it the village..."

"Shh Li Kaigu's boos interrupted the two children's speech, and then while motioning for Li Gukai to take them to other places, he turned around and said to Su You and Jiang Nu'er: "It seems that the promise to the two of you is going to be broken, but I still hope that the two of you can promise me one thing." ”

"What's the matter?" Su You, who had already vaguely guessed what Li Kaigu was going to do, asked bluntly.

"I'm going back to the village." Li Kaigu didn't hide it, and replied: "If this sudden outbreak of the beast tide will really come directly to the border city, then the villages outside the border city are very likely to be affected, so I want to take the people in the village to a safe place as much as possible, and save a few if I can, but once those two children know, they will definitely cry and go back together, I can't let our Lijia Village go to the end, so it's enough for me to go back alone." ”

After listening to what Li Kaigu said, Su You immediately nodded.

Li Kaigu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it, and then took advantage of the chaos in the city to walk into the crowd, and quietly walked out of the city gate and rushed in the direction of the village.

At this time, Li Gukai settled his two children, and when he came back and found that his brother was gone, he guessed what was going on, he didn't cry or make trouble, but he was in a trance, and sat aside without any fluctuations.

In the city, all kinds of sounds mingle.

More and more people are starting to gather.

The sound of crying and shouting of killing was endless.

It wasn't until outside the tall and heavy walls of the border city that a frenzied roar of demon beasts finally sounded.

It was as if time had been forbidden, and the entire border city became silent, and the people who were crying or shouting to kill just now closed their mouths, and their eyes were fixed on the cultivators who were standing on the city wall with resolute expressions and already holding the weapons in their hands.

The cultivators and mercenaries stood on the city wall, and from a distance, they could already see the churning yellow sand on the other side of the horizon and the black shadows covering the sky in mid-air.

That's when they realized in the real sense that the beast tide was really coming.

And looking at that formation, you can know that there are at least thousands of demon beasts attacking this time, and maybe even more.

Such a huge scale, even if you look back at the hundreds of beast tides that have occurred in the desert area, it is unique.

At this time, an old man dressed in the clothes of the Lin family walked in the sky to the front of the city tower, condescendingly looked at the Lin family cultivators and mercenaries who were standing on the city wall and were ready to meet the enemy, and shouted: "Everyone! The coming of the beast tide is not a disaster for us, as long as we can work together, we will definitely be able to annihilate all the monsters in the future! ”

"Of course, although the Lin family has established the border city, they will never forget your contribution to the border city, so the old man, as the person sent by the Lin family to the border city, decided to give rewards to those cultivators who hunted enough demon beasts in this operation to annihilate the beast tide!"

"The Mercenary Association will rank you according to the number of beast cores you get after hunting demon beasts, among which the top 100 cultivators can get 100 high-grade spirit stones and 3 fourth-grade pills provided by the association, the top 50 cultivators can get 300 high-grade spirit stones and 10 fourth-grade pills, and if you are a cultivator in the top 10, you can get 500 high-grade spirit stones and a fifth-grade pill."

"Among them, the cultivator who has been ranked first in this demon beast hunting operation will receive a special reward from the Mercenary Association and the Lin family, a six-grade pill that has never been shown to the outside world and a thousand high-grade spirit stones."

"Therefore, you must do your best to hunt demon beasts, not only to maintain the safety of the border city, but also to protect everyone and yourself."

As soon as the words were finished.

The beast tide that was still on the horizon just now was already under the city.

Among them, the demon beasts flying above the air have already approached the city wall.

The old man immediately made a decision, and immediately shouted loudly: "The demon beast is coming, open the formation, and everyone in the Lin family will rush to kill the enemy with the old man!" ”

The voice fell.

As the old man poured a spiritual power into the formations that had been arranged all over the city wall, invisible barriers suddenly rose, blocking all the flying demon beasts that wanted to attack the city from the sky.

At the same time, the cultivators and mercenaries who were standing on the city wall shot along with the old man.

The spiritual power shocked, and countless pillars of spiritual power turned into a rain of arrows and shot at the flying demon beasts in the air, and all these demon beasts that could not escape in the future were shot down and killed.

Due to the existence of the barrier, the demon beasts outside the city could not break through the city gate in a short time, and they were blocked by the corpses of the demon beasts falling from the sky, and there was really no way to attack the border city for a while.

The monks and mercenaries of the Lin family on the city wall walked up to the city wall in batches to block the flying demon beasts and the demon beasts on the ground under the personal efforts of the old man, and the effect was remarkable.

In just one or two hours, a hill of demon beast corpses had piled up under the city wall.

The demon beasts that were originally attacking madly also had some fighting intent to fade, and the attack was obviously not as fierce as before.

But the old man was calm, he didn't rush to open the city gate and let the cultivators rush out to kill the beast tide, but continued to rely on the formation to let the cultivators continue to attack the beast tide, preparing to destroy all the demon beasts flying in the sky first, and then launch a general attack to counterattack the beast tide on the ground.
