95: C95 The Vicious Beast Tide

C95 The Vicious Beast Tide

"Only the realm of the Initial Martial Emperor (+)?"

Su Lang raised his brows in slight disappointment. "It seems that the effects of Devouring Clone becomes less effective after breaking through a major realm."

"It's honestly such a pity that I don't have enough funds. Otherwise, I would have already spent 10 million gold coins on raising the Clone Dispatch Function to Level 6. After devouring the sixth clone, I reckon that I could break through to the realm of Intermediate Martial Emperor!"

"Even then, my current combat strength should be enough to deal with that snake. Although the attack level of the Crystal-scaled Green Snake may be quite high, its other three attributes are only at the realm of the Martial King. Therefore, I should definitely be able to kill it with ease."

After thinking for a moment, Su Lang revealed a faint smile and turned to Yin Zhou.

"Don't just stand there and stare blankly at me. The citizens of Red Maple City have probably fallen into a state of panic at this very moment."

"Go back and calm the hearts of your people. Command the cultivators of the Mortal Realm and above to guard the walls of the city. You can leave those C-class Vicious Beasts to me!"

Suddenly, Su Lang had turned into someone worthy of becoming a leader.

"Yes, Lord Su Lang!"

Upon receiving Su Lang's confident commands, the three men burst into cheers like a roaring sea.

With someone as powerful as Su Lang on their side, they could definitely be able to defend Red Maple City, no longer needing to leave their homes behind and escape with their tails tucked between their legs.

"Let's go!"

With a single wave of his hand, Ye Feizhang's longsword, a high-rank spirit artifact, suddenly appeared in his hand.

The sword was enveloped by a domineering aurea while its blade felt sharp enough to slice apart an entire cliff. Its lethality felt that much great than the Violet Spirit Sword.

Grasping the longsword in his hand, Su Lang instantly bolted over a hundred meters with a single step. In the blink of an eye, his figure had already disappeared from the vision of the other three men.

"Lord Su Lang... please save the city!"

Yin Zhou muttered as he rushed towards the city walls with Yu Feng and Bao Zheng.

While Su Lang had gone his separate way from Yin Zhou, the hundreds of strongholds outside the city had also begun to evacuate before the Vicious Beast Tide fully overwhelmed them.

Within the span of ten minutes, the Vicious Beast Tide had already covered the entire land and formed into a large wave that devouring everything in its path.

The countless Vicious Beasts that had lost their rationality squeezed together and charged towards the towering rampart of Red Maple City like a tsunami.

At this point, the Vicious Beasts were as cruel and brutal as they could be, for it targeted anything that was contaminated with the aura of a human.

In a short period of time, a large number of martial cultivators had already been caught and eaten alive by them.

Su Lang advanced at a rapid pace towards the location of the C-class Vicious Beasts. Even though he was emitting a powerful aura around him, the densely packed Vicious Beasts were not afraid of his presence whatsoever as they crazily pounced in his direction.

On the other hand, Su Lang continued to slash down at them with his sword. Any Vicious Beasts that dared to step within three meters of him would immediately be killed on the spot.

Amidst the horde of Vicious Beasts, Su Lang forcefully opened up a crimson path for himself as if he was splitting the Red Sea, which extended rapidly towards the location of the Crystal-scaled Green Snake.

On the other side, over ten thousand martial cultivators had gathered on the rampart of Red Maple City.

At this moment, almost every single one of the martial cultivators had been issued the mission to defend the city from the Vicious Beast Tide. The majority of the Standard Martial Cultivators and even some of the Peak Body Tempering Cultivators decided to participate in this defense.

At the same time, a series of mysterious patterns began to radiate across the rampart of the city and the top half of the Union House. With that, a transparent barrier gradually enveloped the entire Red Maple City.

Those mysterious patterns that possessed powerful offensive and defensive abilities had been carved in by the honorable Array Masters.

Even with such powerful array formations protecting them, the complexions of the martial cultivators were still covered with a horrifying bleached tone.

After all, news has spread around the city that this time's Vicious Beast Tide consisted of a total of five C-class Vicious Beast and countless other D-class and E-class ones. Just the number alone was enough to drag everyone down a spiral of despair.2

A few more minutes had passed, and the Vicious Beast Tide had already spread across the bottom of the rampart.

"Ready! Fire!"

At the command of a Martial Expert, hundreds of martial cultivators charged up the bows and shot their sharp arrows down at the Vicious Beasts.

Without waiting for another order, the martial cultivators immediately sent down their second volley of arrows.

Under their hands, the bows and arrows had almost turned into an automatic rifle as the rate at which they shot the arrows continued to speed up without any decrease in firepower whatsoever.

At the same time, the more powerful crossbows had also started to open fire.

While the normal bows and arrows could only pierce through a few Vicious Beasts with a single shot, the crossbow bolts were like a lead bullet that penetrated dozens of meters through the Vicious Beast Tide. Every single Vicious Beast pierced by those bolts was torn into pieces and ended up as a lifeless corpse.

The terrifying volleys of arrows continued to kill hundreds of Vicious Beasts.

But even with such firepower, the advance of the Vicious Beast Tide continued, only at a slightly slower pace.

*Bang!*

Suddenly, a loud crash resounded from a certain direction of the rampart. The tsunami-like Vicious Beast Tide had just collided with the part of the rampart covered with the arrays.

In the next moment, the profound array patterns lit up brightly like a flashbang.

A terrifying shock wave suddenly blasted forth as countless Vicious Beasts had instantly been turned into meat patties. With that, a large empty space had appeared in front of the barrier as if sucked clean by a vacuum.

Immediately after, dense bolts of lightning shot out from the arrays and turned the Vicious Beast in its path into mountains of ashes.
