Chapter 67: The Nine-Tailed Scorpion, the Old Man Fights
The defense of the border city was impregnable, and even in the face of the frantic attack of the beast tide, it did not show any decline.
After the spiritual power flying in the sky killed all the demon beasts flying in the sky like a rain of arrows, the border city that chose to take the initiative to defend at the beginning immediately opened the heavy city gate under the command of the old man.
Countless cultivators and mercenary organizations in the city held weapons in their hands, roaring and rushing towards the demon beasts attacking outside the city.
Seeing that the gate of the border city was wide open, the demon beasts immediately opened their bloody mouths and roared towards the cultivators who rushed towards them.
A bloody battle between the two sides was on the verge of breaking out.
The collision of weapons and flesh and blood, the collision between spiritual power and demon power made the heavens and the earth shake, the sun and the moon were dark, countless flesh and blood bones flew in this hand-to-hand battle, and the ground paved with yellow sand was soaked in blood into a pool of blood mixed with the stumps and broken arms of people and monsters.
A rich, pungent smell of blood rose to the sky, masking everything else.
Stimulated by the smell of blood, the battle between the Terran cultivators and the demon beasts became more and more intense.
However, a large number of mercenary organizations and cultivators sent by the Lin family to guard the border city were already well-trained, and their cooperation was even more intimate, and they were very smoothly defeated when the cultivation realm was not much different.
Everyone simply fought a wide blood path in the tide of beasts that covered the sky and the sun.
Just as the beast tide was retreating, everyone in the border city continued to move forward with momentum and prepared to kill the beast tide directly.
"Roar!"
A deafening roar suddenly suppressed the demon beasts who had already wanted to retreat and flee, and at the same time, it also stopped the border city cultivators who wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue in front of the city gate.
Then I saw a scorpion monster with a body the size of a border city, a whole body that seemed to be covered with a layer of earthy yellow armor, and a tail thorn stood up, only to find that it was actually a poisonous scorpion demon beast with a full nine tails, and walked straight to the gate of the border city with six strong and hard legs covered with bristles.
The cultivators who didn't wait to get out of the city gate reacted.
The nine tail thorns behind the poisonous scorpion demon beast tore through the void, and a yellow flash of light slashed in everyone's eyes, and directly bombarded the defensive formation at the border city wall.
"Bang... BangΒ·Β·Β· Bang..."
Immediately, a series of fragmenting explosions sounded, and the formation that had not been able to stand in the face of the attacks of thousands of demon beasts was crushed by the tail thorn of the poisonous scorpion demon beast, exposing the entire border city naked in front of the demon beasts.
But it seemed that the beast tide controlled by the poisonous scorpion demon beast did not attack immediately, but just surrounded the poisonous scorpion demon beast.
The poisonous scorpion demon beast retracted its tail thorns, opened its mouth full of poisonous fangs, and let out a burst of hiss and shouted at the old man who was standing above the tower of the border city at this time: "It seems that this old man of yours is the strongest Terran cultivator in this city, right?" Why don't you come down and fight with this king, and see how this king kills you all, and you can..."
The monsters that surrounded it also burst out laughing.
"The old man felt that this beast tide happened really suddenly and strangely, but he didn't expect that there was really a demon king behind it."
The old man was not afraid, and slowly walked outside the city in the void, and after a pair of cloudy eyes looked at the poisonous scorpion demon beast for a while, he chuckled: "It turned out to be a nine-tailed poisonous scorpion that had just completed its transformation, and it dared to come to attack the boundary of my border city when it broke through to the five heavens of the Nirvana realm, didn't the old demon kings in the depths of the desert warn you, the border city is not a place where you demon beasts can trample on at will." β
As the words fell, a strong wind blew for no reason, raising the gray beard of the old man.
At the same time, the sound of gusts of wind and thunder sounded out of thin air, and the originally clear sky was actually covered with black clouds, and lightning and thunder lurked in it and made bursts of explosions.
"Trick up! Today, this demon king will kill you old guy first, and then turn this city into ashes! β
The nine-tailed poisonous scorpion shook the nine tail thorns behind him, spitting venom from his mouth, wanting to stand in front of him in the air, and daring to condescendingly teach his own old man to shoot down from the sky.
The tail thorn rolled up venom and stabbed at the old man from all directions.
The old man didn't panic at all, and casually pulled out a spirit spear from the void surrounded by the sound of wind and thunder, and then swept it towards the nine tail thorns that blocked all his retreats.
"Boom!"
One after another, the thunderbolts that turned the entire sky white suddenly fell, accompanied by the sweep of the spear in the old man's hand, directly bombarded the nine tail thorns of the nine-tailed scorpion.
"Shhh
The nine-tailed scorpion was obviously hit by the thunder that fell from the sky, and immediately hissed and retracted its tail thorn.
The venom that was spit out was also swept away by the spirit weapon spear in the old man's hand.
After a few tricks, it was the old man who had the upper hand.
"Wow, yes, yes!"
"You old man is really hateful, today I have to see how powerful this demon king is!"
The nine-tailed scorpion obviously refused to accept that it would be suppressed by an old man who was about to bury half of his body in the soil, and then the nine tail thorns behind him were very strangely fused with each other, turning into a giant tail thorn the size of half of his body, flashing with a faint green light, constantly dripping venom that even the demon beast was corroded into blood in the blink of an eye.
"Truly... This is the housekeeping skill of this demon king, and it can be regarded as cheap for you to use on you bad old man. β
"Look at the move! Break the sky and moxibustion! β
In an instant, a huge tail thorn that was enough to crush the border city pierced the void, rolling up the venom that covered the sky and the sun in countless spatial rifts and rushed towards the old man in mid-air.
The demonic power shocked, and even the thunderclouds condensed in the sky were pierced through a hole by it.
But just as the giant tail thorn rushed towards the old man Cangran, and was about to collide head-on with the spirit weapon spear and the power of wind and thunder, the giant tail thorn suddenly differentiated into nine tail thorns of the original size and besieged the old man again from all directions.
In an instant, even the wind and thunder qi surrounding the old man's body was swallowed up by the tail thorns that rolled up the venom in the sky, enveloping the old man's entire body in the dark green venom.
Seeing that the old man was already in danger.
Even those Lin family cultivators who were fighting against the beast tide opened their mouths and shouted to be careful.
The nine-tailed scorpion was full of pride, as if it was winning.
"The mere demon king also dares to commit murder in the border city of my Lin family, and he is killing himself!"
"God Hunter Thunder Spear, Shocking Thunderstorm!"
Suddenly, the old man who was holding the spear of the spiritual weapon in his hand waved the spiritual weapon in his hand violently, and the spiritual power around his body vibrated and turned into crimson thunder, annihilating all the oncoming venom.
At the same time, in the face of the tail spike that came from the flank again, he did not panic, but raised his spear and rushed straight towards the giant tail thorn in front of him.
The whole person was like turning into a red thunderbolt, there was nothing in the heavens and the earth that could approach him, and the nine tailed spikes that the nine-tailed scorpion had re-differentiated were defeated and annihilated by the red thunder surrounding him before they touched his body.
The next second.
The old man's body fused with the spear, turning into thunder and slamming into the giant tail thorn.
"Boom!"
A loud bang rang out, and even the void was shattered, and the violent earthquake trembled so that the nine-tailed poisonous scorpion the size of the border city stumbled and almost fell.
"Ahh
Immediately, the screams of the nine-tailed poisonous scorpion reached everyone's ears.
"Bang!"
At the same time, everyone also saw a huge tail thorn still dripping venom and blood falling from the sky, directly smashing a huge hole between the Terran cultivators and the beast tide.
The nine-tailed scorpion, which kept screaming, shook off at this time, and the thunder entwined broke the nine tail thorns and began to retreat.
It wants to run.
But the old man would not give it a chance to escape, surrounded by the red thunder, holding the spirit spear in his hand, and chased forward when he stepped on the void.
"Hurry, hurry! Why don't you hurry up and stop this group of Terran cultivators? β
The tail spur was broken, and the nine-tailed poisonous scorpion, which immediately understood that it could not be the opponent of the old man of Cangran, immediately made a decision, and immediately ordered the beast tide to attack while retreating and fleeing, wanting to stop the old man Cangran and the cultivators in the border city and create a space for himself to escape.
Stemming from the suppression of bloodline and strength, no demon beast dares to disobey the orders of a demon king.
So the beast tide launched an attack on the border city again, but the momentum was far less than it had been at the beginning.
But when the old man saw the beast tide attacking again, he did not choose to continue to pursue and kill the nine-tailed scorpion, but returned to the border city to command everyone to hunt the demon beasts and quell the beast tide.
"I see that senior obviously has the upper hand and has a great advantage, why don't you take advantage of the victory to pursue it?"
Su You, who was not in a hurry to go forward to hunt the demon beast, watched the whole process, and then asked Jiang Nu'er curiously: "Or does that nine-tailed poisonous scorpion still have a back hand that makes that senior feel that it is not appropriate to chase deeply?" β
Jiang Nu'er naturally watched the whole process, and then said: "In fact, the strength of this old man of the Lin family and the demon king nine-tailed poisonous scorpion is between the two and the middle, there is no one who can take advantage of whom, the reason why the old man of the Lin family is no longer chasing is because the spiritual power in his body is about to be exhausted, after all, just now he used the strongest move in the Lin family's secret method of hunting god thunder spear, that move Even if it is a strong man in the sevenfold perfection realm of the Nirvana realm, it will consume more than half of the spiritual power, which is not something he can afford." β
"So although he repelled the nine-tailed scorpion, he was no longer able to catch up, not to mention that the most important thing now is to deal with the beast tide, that nine-tailed scorpion is seriously injured, and he will not launch a beast tide to attack the border city in a short time."
"I see... No wonder the old-timer's face turned pale when he came back, it turned out that his spiritual power was almost exhausted. Su You's face was overjoyed while suddenly realizing it, he looked at the many demon beasts outside the city gate who were fighting with the human cultivators again, and immediately said with an itch: "It's just that the demon king has retreated, doesn't it mean that now is the best time to hunt demon beasts." β
The nine-tailed poisonous scorpion retreated, and now the beast tide composed of most of the demon beasts of the Divine Spirit Realm and the Unsullied Realm outside the city no longer posed much of a threat to the border city, but instead became the demon beast cores that the Terran cultivators were vying for rewards.
Drawing his sword out of its sheath, Su You, accompanied by Jiang Nu'er, rushed out of the city gate and rushed into the beast tide with other Terran cultivators.
