Chapter 1279 – Green Wolf, Red Python, Leopard Fowl
”I’ve already met Leader Zhang and the Liu brothers beside Madam. If there wasn’t someone who was proficient in the Vajra Skill, it could have been used. But now that there is a more suitable candidate, in order to have a greater certainty of that thing coming to hand, naturally there is still a need to replace the candidate. After all, after the third layer of vajra know-how is completed, it is not afraid of the attack of the general middle and low grade spiritual weapons, plus this person is very strong, is the most suitable person to assist this trip. Other people, the chance of failure is not small. And once the demonic beasts guarding that thing are startled, we will never have a second chance to strike. Ma’am, don’t you want to make it possible for Senior Brother Pan to have hope of forming dan in the future?” The brocade-robed man said with a shake of his head.
”What Immortal Master Qin said is reasonable, even if this person truly has the potential to become the second ‘Fire Elder’, I still have a good idea of what is more important compared to Qing’er’s future conjugation.” The woman sighed lightly, seemingly somewhat helpless.
”It is only wise for madam to do so! The outbreak of the beast tide this time is the perfect opportunity. The few demonic beasts guarding that thing will never be able to stay out of it, and it’s not certain how many of them will be able to escape back by then. So although the body refiners needed for this trip are in some danger, it’s not a certainty that something will happen. As long as things are accomplished, Mister Qin won’t treat him poorly either, and won’t allow him to develop a sense of resentment towards Madam.” The brocade-robed man’s heart was relieved and he revealed a smile.
”Immortal Master Qin has high magical power, after obtaining that item, I think that conjugating dan will never be a problem. In the future, you will still need to look after the little child a little more.” The woman did not interface with the other party’s words, instead, with a smile on her face, she suddenly brought up her beloved son.
”Hehe, Senior Brother Pan’s excellent qualifications are not below mine. If I can form a dan, it won’t be a problem if my senior brother has that. Madam feel free to rest assured is all.” The brocade-robed man glanced at the blue-robed youth and said gently.
Pan Qing was extremely discerning and hurriedly saluted this senior brother of his, mouthing his thanks.
The pair of young men and women sitting underneath the brocade-robed youth, on the other hand, looked at each other with a heartfelt smile.
For a time, the hall was a harmonious mess, and everyone got along very well.
Han Li naturally didn’t expect that when he first arrived in the Spirit World, he had only just met these people once, but he had already been counted on.
He really didn’t know if he was a Heaven’s Fate Lone Star or if his bad luck was high. If he knew about this matter, he could only cry and laugh.
Some mere mortals and a few Foundation Establishment stage cultivators wanted to take advantage of a Spirit Transformation cultivator like him, they simply didn’t know how to die. Even if he had no magical power now, he would have his own means to kill them easily.
Nowadays, he naturally didn’t know about all of this yet, and was still thinking about staying at the Tian Dong Merchant Company, so as soon as he left the small courtyard, he went to meet with the scar-faced man and the others.
Not long afterward, the order for Han Li to be appointed as the deputy leader really came down, and naturally, there were some people who weren’t too convinced.
However, Han Li only slightly showed his divine power in front of the crowd, causing all of them to shut their mouths under great surprise.
Han Li was thus assigned a quiet, separate compartment, so he didn’t have to squeeze in with the others.
In the following days, he was quietly speculating on the fifth layer of the Vajra Skill in the room.
Originally, according to the cultivation method of the Ming Wang Secrets, he only used the mana in his own body to assist in the cultivation, which was naturally very convenient. But now that he had switched to practicing the Vajra Secrets, he would have to resort to the technique of aura infusion.
With such an unfamiliar cultivation method, he had to familiarize himself with it before he could really start cultivating.
However, after the third day, Han Li left the inn for a trip, not knowing where he had gone, and then quietly returned half a day later.
Aside from a few dedicated individuals, most people didn’t even know that Han Li had ever gone out.
But on the seventh day, Han Li was sitting on his bed in the house in his customary coiled position, eyes slightly closed, when suddenly a huge bell chime came from outside the house, the sound buzzing straight through the nine heavens, shaking the inn with a slight tremor.
Han Li was startled and opened his eyes.
The rumbling bell sound was surprisingly continuous one after another, and with it, the city resounded with the sound of stirring horns, both far and near, echoing back and forth, as if they were blowing up at the same time in all parts of the entire city.
Han Li frowned, without saying a word, pushed open the door of the house out of the residence.
Only to see the entire western courtyard has been in chaos, those guard knights also have come out of the house, or handheld blades, or are cloaked in armor, face look is also very different, there are excited unusual, hidden expectations, there are also fearful face, worried people.
”Panic what panic, even if the beast tide comes. The first wave is not our turn, one by one all back to the house, good to raise enough spirit to go. Really our turn, then want to rest is delusional.” A rough voice came out from a certain courtyard, then Zhang Kui walked out with a watery face, his eyes swept the crowd of guards in a chaotic manner, and loudly reprimanded.
Once those guards heard the scar-faced man roar, they were all honest and obediently returned to the house.
Han Li smiled at this.
It was said that Zhang Kui had been the leader of this escort team for more than ten years, so the high prestige could be imagined.
”Brother Han, why don’t you come with me to observe the size and type of the beast tide first. Even a large beast tide has a difference in size, and there are weak and strong beast species.” After Zhang Kui caught a glimpse of Han Li, he came over and said so.
”Since Brother Zhang said so, Mister Han will naturally be happy to do so.” Han Li was stunned for a moment, but immediately agreed in one gulp.
To be honest, although he wasn’t really concerned about the “beast tide” composed of ordinary beasts and low-ranked demonic beasts, there were still a few points of curiosity in his heart.
Now that he could first open his eyes, he would not refuse this.
When the two walked to the street outside the inn, found that the outside is also very different. The original bustling street, has long become a pedestrian scarcity, is that these few passers-by are also in a hurry, panicked abnormal appearance.
Beast car on the street fell a few times more to, everywhere can see a head or a number of beasts pulling the vehicle running wildly. In addition to these beast vehicles, there is also the kind of Tian Dong merchant firm on the one-horned giant wolf was riding, also intermingled with the running. But this rider was wearing the uniform costume of the An Yuan City guards, and while speeding, he loudly announced the order of the coming beast tide and the martial law of the whole city.
The content of the order is nothing more than in addition to body refiners and soldiers in the city, other ordinary residents must honestly stay in the residence shall not go out at will, there are unauthorized out to hinder the resistance to the beast tide, kill without pardon.
Just as Han Li and Zhang Kui also rode two one-horned giant wolves towards the nearest city wall, at the top of a building that looked like a tower in the southern part of Anyuan City, a large man wearing a purple robe stood in front of a window in the tower, one hand pressing against the window ledge, one hand behind his back, silently gazing into the distance, his face somber.
Suddenly the door of the house was pushed open, an armorer whose body was covered by a green bone armor walked in quickly, came to the purple-robed big man and half-kneeled in front of him, and reported in a low voice: “Enlighten the city lord, it has now been probed that there are a total of three waves of the offending beasts, respectively, the green wolf beasts of the emerald prairie, the red python beasts of the Heiling mountain range, and the panther avian beasts.”
”Sure enough, it’s these three groups of beasts that are attacking, this is a big trouble. If it’s the other beast groups, it’s fine, the Green Wolf Beasts or the Red Python Beasts haven’t erupted in a beast tide for more than three hundred years, and I’m afraid that their numbers are shockingly high today. Those leopard and avian beasts are a bit more tricky. This city is the weakest point in terms of air-to-air power, and although we borrowed a number of strong bows and crossbows from other cities beforehand, and also quickly purchased a number of them, ordinary crossbows and arrows won’t be of much use against the Leopard Fowl Beasts.” The purple-robed big man sighed lightly, with a few anxious brows.
”Didn’t your lordship order a batch of, Exploding Crystal Arrows from the Heavenly East Trading Company? With these specialized crossbows and arrows, it should be possible to hold the air. Not to mention there are those cultivators who came to assist, they can all fly in the air and are also great air defense boosters. With their assistance, those leopard and fowl beasts shouldn’t be a problem.” This armorer so advised.
”We can only think that way now. You arrange those cultivators together and specialize in monitoring the leopard avian beasts movements. Just leave the green wolves and red python beasts to the body refiners and ordinary soldiers to deal with. By the way, the scattered forces that were recruited will also be prepared as soon as possible and mixed in the guards to be used on a rotational basis.” The purple-robed big man commanded so again.
”Yes, my lord!” With a promise, the armorer retreated backwards and went to carry out the order.
The purple-robed big man, the city lord of An Yuan City, twisted his head to look out the window, his face once again gloomy.
……
Han Li stood on a certain section of An Yuan City’s city wall and looked at the situation in the distance, and although his complexion appeared calm, he was somewhat shaken inwardly.
Only to see in the city wall dozens of miles away, the original yellow earth-colored ground has turned into a green blanket, a glance at the end of the green sea seems to drown everything, and these green look closely, but it is a body size varying green wolf beasts. One by one, two eyes green, body light green, fangs slightly exposed under, show the hideous color.
The number of these wolf beasts is too many to count, it is impossible to tell how many thousands of them are out.
And so many green wolves most of them did not say a word, only individual wolf beasts howled continuously, one after another, as if they were passing some message to each other.
”Luckily, this is still only the most common green wolf beasts, if we encountered red wolves or yellow wolves, or even the rare silver wolves, I’m afraid that based on this number of wolf beasts alone, An Yuan City would definitely not be able to withstand it.” Standing next to Han Li, Zhang Kui’s face turned a little white as he murmured with both hands secretly clenching his fists.
”Silver wolves!” As soon as Han Li heard the scar-faced man’s words, he instantly snapped back to his senses from the astonishing number of wolf beasts and let out a light “eek” with a strange expression on his face.
”What, brother Han has never seen a silver wolf beast before? Among the several types of wolf beasts, the silver wolf is the most difficult to deal with. An ordinary Silver Wolf can probably withstand more than ten Green Wolves. I was lucky enough to have seen this kind of wolf beast during a beast tide in the past. Their fearsomeness is still fresh in my mind.” The scar-faced man was slightly surprised and casually explained.
