Chapter 1219: Beastkin Tide
When the people present heard what the patriarch said, although most of them were shocked, they quickly dispersed. Only Han Xin stayed there.
Patriarch Han Ye turned to Liu Ming and said, “It’s not convenient to talk here. Please come to the main hall.”
Liu Ming nodded.
The 4 of them quickly came to the main hall and sat down respectively.
“May I know the important matter that Patriarch Han Ye just said?” Liu Ming asked directly.
“Okay, since Mr. Liu is so forthright, I won’t beat around the bushes. 2 friends are extraordinary. Mr. Liu’s strength is higher than mine and Miss Qian is proficient in arrays, so I want to ask you to help us through this beastkin tide. Of course, I will not let the 2 of you contribute in vain. We will give you some rewards that satisfy you, how about it?” Patriarch Han Ye cupped his fist and said solemnly.
“Patriarch Han can tell us what you offer first, then we will make a decision.” Liu Ming’s eyes flashed when he heard this.
“The elder I mentioned earlier has returned to the tribe. I have learned from him about the way to return to the Middle Sky Continent from the Savage Wild Continent. How about this condition?” Patriarch Han Ye smiled and said a news that moved Liu Ming’s heart.
“Is this true?” Liu Ming fixed his eyes on Han Ye and said word by word.
“Of course, I can swear by the tribe totem.” Patriarch Han Ye was stared at by Liu Ming, and felt a tremor in his heart. He managed to calm down and said seriously.
Liu Ming nodded slightly after hearing this.
“In addition to telling you the way to return to the Middle Sky Continent, as long as you help us to repel this beastkin tide, I can also give you 2 Tapir Eye Beads. This is the secret treasure of our Sunset Tribe. Wearing it can cover your human aura, so you don’t have to worry about being recognized when you travel in the Savage Wild Continent. You must know that there are also many tribes that are very hostile to foreign races.” Han Ye said solemnly.
Han Xin was startled by this, but he didn’t say anything else.
“Okay, since this trade is a matter of mutual benefit, we agree.” At this point, Liu Ming only pondered for a moment before agreeing.
“Mr. Liu is really forthright, so it’s a deal then.” Han Ye was overjoyed upon hearing this.
After they discussed some specific matters, Liu Ming and Qian Rupin left.
“Father, let’s not talk about the way to get back to the Middle Sky Continent. Are you really going to give them 2 Tapir Eye Beads?” Han Xin couldn’t help saying after Liu Ming left.
“I have my own opinion on this matter, you don’t need to ask much. By the way, how is the matter that I asked you to do?” Han Ye said calmly.
“I’ve already checked. Before those beastkins attacked, most of the scouts a.s.signed outside the valley were killed. Judging from the wounds, it should be done by the Real Pellet State feathered snake. This was why they didn’t report in time.” Han Xin was silent for a while and said so.
“These beastkin’s intelligence is getting higher and higher. They should be here to test our strength this time. They will attack directly in a short time.” Han Ye said coldly.
Han Xin’s face was a little ugly, but he didn’t speak.
“Pa.s.s down the order. From today onward, people will be a.s.signed to guard the radius of a hundred miles around the valley at 12 a day. If there is any abnormal situation, report it immediately.” Han Ye pondered for a while and ordered.
“Yes!” Han Xin agreed and walked out.
Han Ye sat on the main seat while thinking about something.
After Liu Ming and Qian Rupin returned to their residence, Qian Rupin went back to her room to rest early. She had lost a lot of spiritual power due to adjusting the totem formation array.
Liu Ming stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back and looked toward the valley entrance with a faint smile.
A few days later, it was just dawn.
With several “rumbling” sounds faintly coming from a distance, a loud warning horn resounded through the entire valley in an instant. The entire Sunset Tribe became tense instantly.
In the open s.p.a.ce of the valley center, more than a dozen Crystallization Period elders rushed from all over the valley at almost the same time. Patriarch Han Ye had already appeared here when the horn sounded.
Beside him was Han Xin.
Under the orders of Patriarch Han Ye, except for Han Xin who stayed at the altar, the rest turned into escape lights and flew toward the battle formation formed by the surrounding clansmen and the city wall in front respectively.
At this moment, a black light flashed from the depths of the valley and landed beside Han Ye. The black light subsided, revealing the figures of Liu Ming and Qian Rupin.
Seeing this, Han Ye felt relieved. He cupped his fist toward Liu Ming and Qian Rupin.
After Liu Ming nodded toward him, he stood aside with Qian Rupin.
Although Qian Rupin had experienced the battle with the Sea Emperor Palace, she was also infected by the tense atmosphere of the entire Sunset Tribe.
Liu Ming looked out of the valley expressionlessly.
Tens of miles away from the Sunset Tribe, the black beastkin group gathered together from several directions, rushing toward the Sunset Tribe. The number was tens of thousands. The smoke and dust billowed and the beastkin howls came one after another.
Liu Ming had experienced large-scale battles in the Evil Ghost Way and the h.e.l.lish-Insect’s invasion, so Liu Ming was unmoved by all of these.
At this moment, a loud thunderous sound came from the giant high platform in front of him.
The purple light beam rising from the high platform in the center suddenly became several times thicker, causing ripples like water waves to appear in the purple light curtain.
The next moment, 5 giant beastkin phantasms emerged from the purple light curtain, and they roamed in the light curtain. These beastkins looked like horse and rhinoceros, and they were lifelike. They looked the same as the beastkin statues on the top of the 5 stone pillars.
“Such a clear tapir G.o.d phantasm! Mr. Liu, I didn’t expect Miss Qian’s array skills to be so profound. The totem scene of this level has not been seen in our tribe for more than a thousand years!” Han Ye looked at the light curtain with excitement and amazement.
“Patriarch Han has overpraised. If it wasn’t for Elder Bai Wen explaining all kinds of beastkin runes to me, how could I succeed.” Qian Rupin said modestly with a smile.
Although Liu Ming looked normal on the surface, he once again greatly overestimated Qian Rupin’s attainments in arrays.
After all, it was her first time in contact with totem mystic arts, and she could have such understanding. It could no longer be described as genius.
While they were talking, thousands of beastkins had already appeared less than 600 meters away from the valley.
These beastkin looked like hyenas. Each one of them was about 3 meters tall. They were covered with a layer of gray scales, and their bodies were as fast as flying. With a light step on the ground, they could easily jump dozens of meters.
There was a burst of strange screams.
After their chests shrank for a while, these hyena-shaped beastkins spewed out gray wind blades toward the Sunset Tribe. A series of gray light marks appeared on the purple light curtain.
Immediately behind these hyena-scaled beasts, more than a thousand beastkins like rhinoceros arrived. These beastkins were quite huge, about 24 meters in size. They had rough skin that seemed to be made of iron and dark horns on their heads. They lowered their heads and slammed into the light curtain.
Simultaneously, the air was suddenly filled with dense green figures. It was thousands of green flying snakes that had appeared before. They were spurting pungent dark green liquid at the purple light curtain.
Most of these beastkins only had the strength of the Spirit Apostle Stage, except for a few with the Condensation Period strength, but there were too many of them. The attack momentum was extremely shocking. Although the continuous blasting sound couldn’t shake the entire magnificent purple light curtain, the beastkin cultivators below were still startled.
After a brief shock, with the commands of those Crystallization Period elders, the Sunset Tribe counterattacked quickly.
A burst of loud whistling sounds!
Hundreds of huge crossbows on the city wall emitted a green cold light at the same time. Under the control of the beastkin cultivators, green lights barraged the green flying snakes in midair and the beastkin tide below.
These crossbows were huge. With the blessing of some kind of wind attribute beastkin totem, the bolt was even faster!
There were screams everywhere!
The rhinoceros beastkins and hyena beastkins near the city walls suffered heavy casualties where the green bolts. .h.i.t.
However, due to the huge size and high defensive power of these rhinoceros beastkins, more bolts were needed to kill them. As for those hyena beastkins, they were more difficult to hit due to their agility. However, if they were shot, they would be dead instantly.
The impact of the bolts had little effect on the green flying snakes due to the large maneuvering s.p.a.ce, but they were still killed by the attacks of the beastkin cultivators below.
All of a sudden, the attacks of various sources illuminated the entire sky.
Not long after, a hill of beastkin corpses piled up outside the Sunset Tribe’s city walls.
However, there were too many beastkins. The countless hyena beastkins, wolf-shaped beastkins, green flying snakes and rhinoceros beastkins continued to swarm toward the city walls fearlessly.
Fortunately, under the solid protection of the purple light curtain covering the entire tribe, the beastkin cultivator of the Sunset Tribe defended more than a dozen waves of offensives, and they still did not fall at the slightest disadvantage. Their morale was high as the battle went on.
On the contrary, without any protection, thousands of beastkins died in less than half a day.
According to this trend, if there was nothing wrong with the protective light curtain, the Sunset Tribe would be able to defend for another day and night.
