Lonemoon was amazed. The world changed fast indeed, even Fiendish Cultivators were trustworthy friends now. He somehow remembered Roasted Chicken Gal from the past. Ah! There were indeed nothing that time was not capable of changing.
"That was an indiscreet remark." He hurried to apologize. Looking at the beast tide which was getting even thicker in front and facing the only two Nascent Soul cultivators left in the air, he said, "You two can stay here to stop the Beast Tide. We'll go ahead and take a look."
"Okay!" Lou Hong nodded. He also understood that if they continued forward, the beasts would not be within their ability to deal with any more. He turned to look at Yi Qing, who just rose to Nascent Soul level, "Then Yi..."
"He'll come with us, " Lonemoon said, "Rest assured, he can definitely deal with it."
Lou Hong was stunned for a moment, but didn't ask any further. He cupped his fist, and said with an expression of farewell, "Two Supremacies, please take care." With that said, he gave the two another look, and flew down towards the beasts below.
The three continued to fly forward, but the further they went, the more they were shocked by the scene in front of them. The beasts were so dense everywhere and rushed in like tides. He could only see waves of them. He had never seen so many demon beasts before.
"How can there be so many demon beasts!" And their levels weren't low.
They could already vaguely hear the fighting in front. He used Divine Perception to glance at it and realized those were all Soul Formation cultivators there. There were a few dozen in total. They stood in the forefront and focused on attacking the high level beasts, so as not to hurt the disciples behind.
It seemed that the Beast Tides were indeed frequent, that the sects were clear of the positions of their resistance without discussion.
Lonemoon's hand turned, and instantly his long flute turned into a spirit sword. He gave Shen Ying and Chef a look and flew straight towards those Soul Formation cultivators in front.
Those people looked familiar too. They were indeed the people who went to Honesty Sect for the contest earlier. They probably came straight over upon hearing the bell rings.
Lonemoon instantly produced a sword rain, which went towards several twelfth-level demon beasts in front of them, . He originally had the cultivation of imperial ascension, and though it was suppressed, a few lower-realm demon beasts wouldn't be able to fight against his spirit swords. The swords pierced right through their bodies and the beasts fell to the ground.
"Supremacy Lonemoon!" Dong Wu who was preparing for battle was joyful."You're here!"
Lonemoon nodded and greeted them, before he rushed over with Chef. In an instant, the few who were struggling just now suddenly felt much easier. The demon beasts fell in waves, and there was sword qi everywhere.
The Soul Formation Supremacies were all stunned, and could only sigh that sword cultivators were different after all, each counted for several of them. But that cultivator beside Lonemoon with dreadful sword qi, why did he look a bit like that person who was fighting with Divine Heavens Sect for the top position of Golden Core level?
Before the few had time to think carefully, they re-entered the battle.
With the addition of the two, they were able to press back the Beast Tide within a certain distance. However, the number of beasts was indeed too large, once they retreated to the seaside, they didn't retreat any more. There were only more and more demon beasts emerging constantly from the sea.
And it was actually endless!
As Lonemoon fought, he felt even stranger. This situation was too abnormal. By right, beasts always advanced in levels with great difficulty, and unlike demons, they didn't get their wisdom first. Therefore, their numbers were never large, and they hardly acted in groups. Yet the Three Azure Realms saw a Beast Tide every century, it didn't seem right whichever way he thought about it.
He observed the surroundings and actually found that there were four pillars that seemed very out of place. Two of them were already broken. Some strange shapes were drawn on the pillars. Perhaps it was an illusion, but the beasts seemed to be avoiding those pillars somehow.
"What's that?" He asked Dong Wu at his side.
"It's the foundation of the ancient array that used to stop the Beast Tide!" Dong Wu sighed and replied, "A pity it had already been broken by the Beast Tide now."
"What array is it exactly?" Maybe it could be fixed.
"I don't know." Dong Wu shook his head while opening up a demon beast with his sword."The knowledge of this array had long been lost. In the recent million years, not a single person has knowledge of this array!"
Lonemoon's eyes darkened."I'll go and take a look. With that said, he looked at the person behind him and called, "Chef!"
In the next instant, Yi Qing's sword turned in his hand, and the Sword Qi all over his body produced a sword intent, a long dragon which went right in front of Lonemoon. With a dragon's roar, a way towards the pillars had immediately been cleared.
Lonemoon flew over directly and took a close look at the Dharmic talismans engraved on the pillars, but couldn't understand a single thing.
"What's this?" He was about to open the assistant authority to see if there was some automatic explanation.
But Yi Qing suddenly spoke, "It's a Dragon Trapping Array!"
"What?"
"It's the Dragon Trapping Array of the dragon clan." Yi Qing said certainly."There's such an array in the heritage of dragon clan."
So it's an array of the divine race. Wait! Could this array have been left by that long worm in the past after it became a dragon?
"Can you set this array?" Lonemoon asked hurriedly.
"I can." Yi Qing turned to look at the dense, constantly emerging wave of beasts on the sea."But the setting of this array cannot be interrupted. Right now..."
"This is easy!" Lonemoon's eyes brightened. It's good so long as it can be fixed."You just focus on setting the array."
With that said, he returned to the crowd in the back in a flash. He looked up and shouted towards the right side, "Hey, Shen Ying, hurry down here and help Chef clear the space!"
"Ah?!" Shen Ying who sat on the tree shaking legs inclined her head, a lazy look on her face.
The Soul Formation cultivators at the side were shocked. Not to mention that there was actually a complete tree over here that wasn't affected by the beast time, who is that person on the tree? When did she come? How did they never see her coming at all?
And...
They subconsciously glanced at the fruit cores which surrounded the ground beneath the tree. How long had she been up there eating fruits?
"Don't ramble. Come down quickly!"
Only then did Shen Ying shake her legs, jump down from the tree and walk over slowly."So troublesome!" She wasn't full and didn't feel like moving.
"To hell with your 'troublesome'! Hurry up!" Lonemoon rushed up and dragged her over, pressing his sword into her hand conveniently."Okay. Go quickly! I know you're not full. There'll be extra for dinner, okay?"
With that said, he pushed her into the dense crowd of demon beasts.
"Supremacy Lonemoon, you..." The Soul Formation Supremacies were shocked. That girl did not show any visible cultivation. Isn't he sending her to die?
Several went forward to stop it, but it was already too late. They saw that giant demon beasts rushed up from the sea and opened their huge mouths to bite her.
Dong Wu even cried out loud, "Girl, be care-"
Before he could finish, they heard her sigh, and suddenly raising the hand which grabbed the sword, and in an almost playful manner, she waved it towards the front.
Instantly, a white line appeared beside the sword which advanced in an all-destructive, powerful manner towards the sea. In a moment, the dense wave of beasts were all bisected at the waist. Even the giant waves that were made by the beasts fell, coloring the sea surface to a blood-red instantly.
It was completely silent.
Dong Wu, "..."
Everyone: "..."
Where were they? What just happened?
