Chapter 385 - Beishan County CityAfter killing the huge Blood-Thirsty Earth Lizard with a single slash, the group of Earth Lizards that had gathered beneath the city to obstruct the army immediately lost their command and became chaotic and disorderly.
Coupled with the huge wave of steel formed by the Snow Wolf Cavalry and the PaG.o.da squadron, the group of Earth Lizards instantly collapsed. They let out waves of strange cries as they fled in all directions towards the forest surrounding the city.
The Snow Wolf Cavalry and the PaG.o.da Steel Cavalry did not pursue. Instead, they all raised their heads to look at the figure standing on top of the city wall. They were all quite shocked!Although the Blood-Thirsty Earth Lizard was just a Twin Cloud Beast of low strength, it was not an easy feat for a group of Blood-Thirsty Earth Lizards to break through the encirclement, even if they were Yellow Cloud Realm experts.
However, this prince, who was rumored to be a good-for-nothing, had single-handedly broken through the group of Earth Lizards, and had even beheaded the king of this group of Blood-Thirsty Earth Lizards.
Even though the soldiers present were all elites out of a hundred, there was still someone who was able to accomplish this. However, to kill the Earth Lizard King in such a short period of time was not something that could be done so easily.Instantly, the looks in the eyes of the crowd towards Xiang Yun changed, especially towards the soldiers of the Buddha Armoured Cavalry. The grudges and arrogance in their eyes gradually subsided!
"What are you waiting for? Quickly go into the city and save the people!" Xiang Yun, who was standing atop the city walls, gave the order, turned around, and rushed down toward the city!
Soon after, the Black Armored Army and the Snow Wolf Cavalry broke into the city gates and followed Xiang Yun into the city!
However, the moment they entered the city, they were immediately filled with a thick stench of blood that made them frown. They looked at the streets within the city and immediately felt their stomachs churning.Seeing the scene in front of him, Xiang Yun could not help but furrow his brows, covering his nose and mouth!
The city was now a sea of blood and corpses. Broken corpses and dismembered limbs could be seen everywhere, blood and organs were scattered all over the ground, and some of the broken organs were even emitting strands of heat. The entire city was like a field of blood!"How could this be? The city was clearly not breached." Xiang Yun looked at this b.l.o.o.d.y scene and could not help but mutter to himself in confusion.
"Look ahead!" At this moment, someone exclaimed!
Everyone looked up and saw that in the middle of the streets within the city, there was a huge pit with a radius of ten Zhang. At this moment, there were many streets, alleys, and houses in the city.
"d.a.m.n it, this group of beasts actually drilled their way into the city from underground!" Seeing this scene, Qi Haowei could not help but pound his fist on the edge of the city wall as he spoke hatefully.
Xiang Yun"s expression was also incomparably dark as he ordered, "Search the entire city immediately, see if we can find any survivors!""Yes sir!" They immediately began searching the city. About half an hour later, the whole army gathered and found that no one in the city had returned alive!
Although he had already expected this outcome, Xiang Yun"s heart still trembled. He took a deep breath, thinking to himself, Is this the cloud beast tide? It"s so cruel!
"Ma domain, where is Zhu Kai?""I am here. What orders does Your Highness have?" With black armor covering their faces and only their eyes exposed, the two Snow Wolf Cavalry Vice Battalion Commanders stepped forward at the same time.
"How far is the next city to the west of this place?!"
"Reporting to Your Highness, the next city to the west of here is called "Tailai City". This city is over a hundred miles away from here!"
"Good."He would immediately set off for Tailai City!
"
Xiang Yun did not know whether or not the cities of the Beishan County had already fallen under the beast tide. However, as long as there was a sliver of a chance for survival, he would still rush over. Of course, his direction would not change!
A hundred miles was not a difficult distance for the Snow Wolf Cavalry and the PaG.o.da Armoured Cavalry. However, Xiang Yun and the others had not gone smoothly. Most of the Cloud Beasts they had encountered were solo or two low level ones.
However, the further west they traveled, the denser the number of cloud beasts became, and the frequency of their appearances increased. However, the further west they traveled, the denser the number of cloud beasts became, and the frequency of their appearances increased.
For example, after they had sprinted for over fifty miles, they actually encountered a group of "Iron Bull" that had rushed down from the forest on the back mountain. For example, after they had sprinted for over fifty kilometers, they actually encountered a group of "Iron Bull" that had rushed down from the forest on the mountain.When they encountered this group of thick-skinned Steel Barbarian Cows, although the allied army was not afraid, they still suffered some injuries under this kind of forceful charge. Although the injuries sustained by more than ten soldiers from the Buddha Armoured Cavalry were not too serious, it still gave everyone a warning alarm.
Along the way, the allied army once again broke through the horde of Giant Scythe Pandas and killed nearly a hundred Mountain Piercing Mastiffs. Finally, they saw the Great Tailai City in front of them from a great distance.
From afar, everyone could see the numerous cloud beasts gathering outside the city. Without the slightest hesitation, the army immediately rushed over, bathed in blood.
However, when they arrived at the city gates, they saw that the four city gates had already been broken through by the horde of Cloud Beasts. The city had turned into a heaven for the Cloud Beasts to eat and drink their blood.
Everyone rushed in recklessly. Relying on their strong cultivation and the ability to fight in groups, they forcibly drove out and killed all the Cloud Beasts in the city.
After searching for a while, not a single living soul remained in the city, because there were too many types of Cloud Beasts. Most of them could fly in the sky, and others could escape into the ground.Seeing so many lives being tragically killed in front of him, perhaps ordinary people would have long collapsed and felt fear in their hearts. However, the PaG.o.da squadron was also a hundred battle lions, and the Snow Wolf cavalry was a journey of redemption through the mountains of corpses and the seas of blood.
Everyone turned to look at Xiang Yun, waiting for his next order!
At this moment, Xiang Yun"s cold gaze was filled with killing intent as he raised his head to look at the dark and gloomy sky northwest of him!
"Continue to move forward and head for the next city. I don"t believe that all of the cities in the Northson Prefecture have been destroyed by these beasts, do I?"
The number of attacks by cloud beasts increased along the way, the scale of the cloud beasts also increased, and even the level of the cloud beasts began to increase. The cavalry formed a triangular cone, rushing all the way, they were still invincible, rushing towards more than a dozen cities!The final result caused everyone to feel a chill in their hearts. Not a single city remained alive. All the cities were swallowed up by the beast tide and turned into a paradise for cloud beasts!
Xiang Yun"s group, on the other hand, could no longer enter the city to ma.s.sacre these Cloud Beast groups like they had before. Although their strength was enough to shake these Cloud Beast groups, they had rushed all the way here without stopping.
However, along the way, not a single survivor could be found in more than ten cities. On the contrary, more and more Cloud Beasts had appeared, and their offensive power had also increased. Even two Snow Wolf Cavalry soldiers had been injured.His heart also gradually became heavy!
At this moment, everyone had arrived at a gentle slope. They were looking at the ground ahead of them. From time to time, they would see groups of beasts whizzing by, causing smoke and dust to fill the air.
"Your Highness, do we have to continue?"
Along the way, close to a hundred soldiers of the Buddha Armoured Cavalry had already been injured. As a commander, he knew the road ahead was even more dangerous, so he was naturally worried.Xiang Yun looked at the parallel lines in front of him and did not hesitate at all!
"Keep going forward!"
"But, will this continue?"
Qi Haowei was a little hesitant. He could tell that the beast tide that broke out in the northwest was not ordinary. It actually affected half of the Northern Forest. With so many cities breached, the scale of the beast tide could be clearly seen.
Also, the deeper one went, the more crowded the beasts would be, and the higher the grade of the beasts would be. There was no need to mention how dangerous it would be.Just as Qi Haowei was hesitating, Xiang Yun said, "The Northern Forest County is right in front of us. I don"t believe that even the magnificent Northern Forest County can be taken over by this group of Cloud Beasts. Let"s go there and rest our troops!"
When they heard his words, everyone"s eyes lit up. A county city was the center of power, there was a huge army, and there were many martial pract.i.tioners in the clouds. Naturally, the Golden City Soup Pool"s defensive capabilities could not be compared to an ordinary city.
In addition, Xiang Yun had taken the lead and charged to the very front, causing these soldiers who had gone through hundreds of battles to admire him from the bottom of their hearts. They began to believe in Xiang Yun"s orders!
In a moment, everyone"s confidence was boosted. They once again ordered their troops to line up and rush down the hill to the west!
The difficulty of this journey to the Beishan County was even greater than before. Not only was the cloud beast horde even larger, the level of the cloud beast was also gradually increasing. There was even a soldier level cloud beast that appeared.
Although this cloud beast had been quickly killed by everyone, everyone knew that this guy"s appearance was definitely not a good omen. With the beast tide activated, the higher level cloud beasts would usually move later, and now that a soldier level cloud beast had appeared, there would definitely be more of them appearing later.He rushed all the way down, once again breaking through the attacks of several cloud beasts and killing three soldier level cloud beasts. One of them was Demonshine Deer, one was an Ironback Lizard, and the other was a Blood Jade Spider.
With the paG.o.da cavalry losing dozens of men, injuring over a hundred, and the Snow Wolf Cavalry wounding over ten, the army had finally reached the plains a few miles away from the Northern Good County City!
A majestic city appeared before everyone"s eyes. The city wall was as tall and thick as a mountain, as if a giant beast was standing under the firmament. On all four sides of the city, there were already countless Cloud Beasts moving around the city like ants, causing their scalps to go numb!In the east, south, east and west sides of the county city, beams of light shot into the sky. They gathered in the sky to form a curtain of light that enveloped the county governor in all directions.
"It"s an array formation. It seems that the Darknorth Commandery isn"t out of the picture yet!" Everyone cheered in joy and was about to heave a sigh of relief.
"Not good, look to the north!" Someone in the crowd suddenly exclaimed.
Everyone looked to the north and their expressions immediately changed, because at this moment, a huge hole had actually appeared on the north side of the giant barrier. At the same time, a huge hole had also appeared on the city wall.
"What is this? Even the Northern Benevolence Prefecture?"
