Chapter Eighty-Five: The Giant Rock Crocodile
"Boom, boom!"
Tens of thousands of spirit beasts under the city wall slammed on the ground and rushed towards the city wall, and the vibration that could be felt on the ground of the city wall became more and more violent.
Ye Changqing stared at the front, his eyes were calm, and finally he gave the order.
"Launch!"
Sou!
With the sound of neat and dense bowstrings, hundreds of full bows and arrows were finally released, like eagles yearning for the sky, but then the arrows rained down, and the glowing arrows shot towards the group of spirit beasts.
The sharp arrows easily tore through the rough skin of the spirit beasts, causing them a lot of damage, and pieces of spirit beasts fell as they went.
Wave after wave of spirit beasts fell as if they had been cut wheat, but more spirit beasts were filling in behind them at any time, and they continued to advance towards the city.
Batches of arrows were shot out by hundreds of big bows, but in the face of the mighty group of spirit beasts, it was only a cup of water!
Finally, the sharp special arrows were still shot, and the cost of such arrows was high, and it was difficult to sell, so there was not much inventory.
Although the major families had been collecting a large number of frost stones, one of the main materials, for some reason, the inventory of frost stones was not much, which led to the price of a whole medium-grade spirit stone when Yao Chu needed frost stones before, which far exceeded the normal value.
In addition, the tide of spirit beasts came so quickly that there was no time to prepare, so it was quickly exhausted. And the rest are some ordinary arrows, which have little effect on the fierce spirit beast group.
As the arrows ran out, the beast tide became even more unstoppable.
Finally, the herd was already unstoppable, slowly approaching the city wall.
However, just as they were approaching a certain boundary, one after another light curtains rose, and exactly a row of light curtains split a large group of spirit beasts in front of them into four parts!
The four barriers are the four inscription arrays provided by the four great families, which just envelop the vanguard of the beast herd.
Although no one would risk their lives to preside over the Inscription Array, with the support of the Spirit Stone, the Inscription Array still has a strong slaughtering ability in the face of spirit beasts that have no ability to think.
"Hmph, your Yao family's inscription formation doesn't seem to be very good, it can't be that you took some defective product out to cheat, right?" Ling Mad suddenly sneered.
The quality of the inscription formations of the four major families is uneven, and the time when the formation is activated is naturally different, the Ye family is the fastest, the Ling family is second, and the Chu family and the Yao family are behind. Although the principle of a temporary truce was drawn up, Ling Mad did not intend to let go of this opportunity to ridicule Yao Fengxiong.
But Yao Fengxiong, whose mind was obviously far away in Tianhe, was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time to realize that it was the reason for the inscription array. He also hit back no less:
"It's useless to be able to do it for a while! It doesn't mean anything if you start quickly, it's better than one to compare whose inscriptions have killed more spirit beasts in a big array!"
Ling Mad was about to say something more, but he glanced at Ye Changqing, and didn't seem to have any intention of stopping them from arguing, so he sneered secretly, not arguing with Yao Fengxiong.
One after another the inscriptions flowed, killing and bloody spread wantonly in the inscription array, slaughtering the spirit beasts in it, and behind them, countless spirit beasts were continuing to pour into the inscription array.
This is the horror of the Great Array of Inscriptions, for creatures with low cultivation, it is a naked meat grinder!
It is said that the tide of spirit beasts has started since ancient times, and the inscription array is specially used by the human race to restrain these crazy beasts.
Before the Great Array of Inscriptions, the human race was attached to some strong people to survive, and once the scale was large, the beast tide would come to the door. At that time, they didn't have an inscription array, even if they were strong, they could only kill some of the spirit beasts, and the rest of the spirit beasts would kill the human race that depended on him!
This was called a curse of God before time immemorial!
Of course, there are no gods, but since then, there have been some strange species worshipped as gods by the ignorant Terran tribes, hoping to be protected and there will be no more disasters. Most of them are destroyed when they encounter a disaster, and tribes that do not have a disaster are more confident that the gods they worship will bless them.
However, the Terran tribe that had suffered a catastrophe but was fortunate not to be completely destroyed finally gave up their gods and turned to study how to deal with this wave of spirit beasts.
Finally, I don't know how many flesh-and-blood lessons they went through, and they succeeded!
The Great Array of Inscriptions was invented!
With the protection of the inscription array, it is difficult for the human race to be wiped out by the beast tide from time to time in the past, so it is natural that the number of human races is getting bigger and bigger.
Of course, even if the sphere of influence of the human race is constantly expanding and its strength has increased again and again, in the face of the tide of spirit beasts, it can only be dealt with passively, and there is almost no way to eliminate this spirit beast spontaneously impacting the human tribe.
But they also found that the reason for the emergence of the spirit beast tide may be related to the number of spirit beasts, so almost every city close to the wild forest will appear a mercenary profession, their task is to destroy the spirit beasts in the wilderness, of course, looking for treasures is also their handy behavior, they are sponsored and subsidized by each city, in order to try to reduce the frequency of the spirit beast tide.
So having said that, Maple Leaf City naturally also has its own inscription array, but it was partially destroyed by the giant bird in the previous incident, and there happened to be a huge hole in the broken city wall, and it was necessary to find an inscription master from other places to repair it, and it would also take a few days.
Now it's up to them! Ye Changqing's eyes narrowed as he glanced at the other three family masters.
For half an hour, the four inscription arrays kept the beast tide out.
But after all, it was impossible for the four major families to hand over the real hole cards easily, so the inscription array was finally broken after half an hour.
With the sound of four violent explosions, the four inscription arrays almost all collapsed one after the other, and the corpses of the spirit beasts in the large array were almost piled up, without the support of the light curtain, the corpses and blood of the spirit beasts flowed out, the ground was soaked with full blood, and the bright red soil was still spreading.
Then even such a bloody scene still did not stop the pace of the spirit beast tide, they crossed the mountain-like corpses of spirit beasts, trampled on the bloody mud, and rushed towards the city wall with madness.
And Ling Mad and Yao Fengxiong didn't have time to debate whose inscription array had killed more spirit beasts at this time, because at this time, behind the spirit beast group, a large group of huge giant crocodiles appeared, and the aura on their bodies made everyone present gasp.
If you count carefully, there are more than a dozen giant crocodiles with the aura of the Imperial Spirit Realm following behind the beast tide, or they are also part of the beast tide!
The giant crocodile at the head even has a breath that has reached the top level of the Imperial Spirit Realm, and a single body can directly threaten them!
"It's... Rock crocodile... Judging from the aura, I'm afraid that many of them are the existence of the Imperial Spirit Realm... I'm afraid no one can be left alone this time!" Ye Changqing's face was extremely ugly.
This is just the defense line facing the most edge of the wild forest, and the spirit beasts are all at a level they can deal with, but today is a little different, maybe it is the influence of that giant bird, or there is a problem with the defense line elsewhere.
There were no such powerful and numerous spirit beasts in the previous beast tide, not to mention that they had lost part of the inscription array now, so it was even more difficult for them to resist the beast tide.
Yao Fengxiong took the initiative to provoke Ling Mad this time: "Hehe, this time several of your Ling family's Imperial Spirit Realm masters may not be able to stay behind and rest!"
Last time, the Ling family took almost all the masters of the Imperial Spirit Realm to the Yao family, but they were not only beaten back by that giant bird, but also exposed their Ling family's hidden hole cards - a full eight Imperial Spirit Realm powerhouses!
So Yao Fengxiong has to provoke Ling Madness well, but don't let him hide a few Imperial Spirit Realms!
As soon as Yao Fengxiong mentioned the Imperial Spirit Realm, Ling Mad's face darkened, if it weren't for that damn giant bird last time, the Yao family would have been wiped out by him Ling Mad a long time ago!
Of course, not only Yao Fengxiong, Ye Changqing also wished to let all the Ling family's Imperial Spirit Realms rush to the front, and it was best to die a few more, so that the Ling family's strength could be greatly weakened. Although this is a critical moment, it is inevitable that he still wants to consume the strength of other families.
Even the black-robed Chu Wei, who didn't talk much on the side, also turned his gaze to this side.
Ling Maan's face darkened even more.
"Even if my Ling family's Imperial Spirit Realm comes out, I can't stop it!"
"Hehe, it's okay, your Ling family is strong, just be in front, and we will follow behind to assist. Yao Fengxiong didn't hesitate to provoke.
"Think beautifully! Don't think about only letting my Ling family contribute! It is impossible for my Ling family to play all of them, and each of your families must send a Royal Spirit Realm to resist with the people of our family!"
Ling Mad is not stupid, it is impossible to let people from other families take advantage. Just let each of their families have someone among them, at least they don't have to worry about being abandoned in the beast tide, and the Ling family's Imperial Spirit Realm has a larger number of people, but it is easier to take care of it, if something happens, it will be easier for other families to fall into the Imperial Spirit Realm.
This is the intrigue between families.
Yao Fengxiong and Ye Changqing didn't seem to agree with Ling Mad very much, but Ling Mad still made them shut up with his words.
"If you don't agree, I will let the Ling family withdraw from the city defense and simply die together!"
After some bargaining, the Ling family sent out six Imperial Spirit Realms, leaving two behind. And the other families all have a Royal Spirit Realm, plus Yao Fengxiong, Chu Wei and Ling Mad Three, a total of ten powerful lineups of the Royal Spirit Realm.
After all, the Ling family had already made a big concession by pushing out the six Imperial Spirit Realms, and Yao Fengxiong and Ye Changqing were relatively satisfied.
As they spoke, the beasts approached the city wall again, and the precarious city wall might not be able to resist the impact of the spirit beasts at all.
"Let's go!"
With a little preparation, they set off.
Yao Fengxiong of the Yao family, Second Uncle Yao, Ye Xiangyang of the Ye family, Ye Ding, Chu Wei of the Chu family and another black-robed man should also be in the Imperial Spirit Realm, and the six Imperial Spirit Realms of the Ling family all walked out of the city wall, and they were going out to snipe the giant rock crocodile. And only Ye Changqing was left on the city wall as the city lord on the bright side to command the others to fight.
Time was short, and they galloped towards the group of giant rock crocodiles.
As the group moved forward, the weak spirit beasts posed no threat to them at all, so a flesh-paved bright red road stretched towards the giant rock crocodile.
And around the giant rock crocodile, the spirit beasts that dared to approach them had all been torn apart, and only a blank area formed around them, just right for their decapitation operation.
"Roar!"
Finally they arrived in front of the Rock Crocodile, and of course the Rock Crocodile easily spotted this group of uninvited guests, and launched an attack on them without the slightest hesitation.
Each of them accurately found the giant rock crocodile that suited their own strength, and the extra giant rock crocodile was handed over to those who had spare strength, such as the black-robed man of the Chu family and the second uncle of the Yao family, who were at least stronger than others in terms of strength.
They pulled the giant crocodile apart one-on-one, leaving the strongest middle giant rock crocodile with amazing strength for the rest of the people.
Yao Fengxiong, Ling Mad, and Chu Wei looked at the Giant Rock Crocodile King in the center, glanced at each other, and attacked it at the same time.
