God Emperor

Zhang Ruochen and Han Qiu kept walking day and night, reaching the fastest speed. At noon the next day, they finally arrived at the outskirts of Tianmo Ridge.

On the horizon are tall and majestic mountains, densely populated with trees and sparsely populated. Huge and ferocious beasts can still be seen from time to time.

"We are only half a day away from Tianmo Martial City, so we should be safe."

Han Qiu breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I remember that there is a small city not far from here called 'Yueji City', which belongs to the sphere of influence of the Yuntai Sect. We can go there and have a good rest." Maybe, the people from Yuntai Zongfu and Wushi Academy who are waiting for us have arrived in Yueji City. "

Zhang Ruochen thought for a while and said: "Okay! If there are really experts from Wushi Academy and Yuntai Zongfu, it would be a good thing to welcome us in Yueji City. However, we should be careful and better investigate first. Turn over and enter the city again.”

More than ten days have passed, and the news must have spread back to Wu City Academy.

Wushi Academy will definitely send strong men to welcome Zhang Ruochen. After all, Zhang Ruochen's talent is definitely worth the protection of Wushi Academy.

When Zhang Ruochen and Han Qiu arrived outside Yueji City, they discovered something very strange!

The city gate was wide open and not a soul could be seen.

Although Yueji City is just a small city, it is by no means desolate. It can be said that there are thousands of warriors who venture into Tianmo Ridge every year. Most of them come to Yueji City to stay temporarily, supply healing elixirs, sell beast corpses, etc.

Why is it that today, no one can be seen? It's like a dead city.

Zhang Ruochen sniffed the air gently, and he could smell a strong rancid smell coming from the city hundreds of meters away.

"Why is Yueji City so quiet? Have evil warriors from the Poisonous Spider Chamber of Commerce already occupied this small city?" Han Qiu asked in confusion.

"If it were an evil warrior from the Poisonous Spider Chamber of Commerce, he would never do it so obviously."

Zhang Ruochen seemed to have guessed something and walked directly towards the city gate.

Han Qiu hesitated for a moment and then chased after him.

Entering Yueji City, Zhang Ruochen and Han Qiu discovered that the entire Yueji City had indeed turned into a dead city, with not a single living person on the streets.

Because there are only dead bodies.

The dead bodies lay scattered on the ground, some were hanging on the eaves, and some were broken into two parts...

They seemed to have only been dead for a day or two. Their bodies were very shriveled, all the blood in their bodies had been drained, and the air was filled with a putrid smell that made people want to vomit.

Although it was still daytime, it gave people an eerie feeling, like they were in hell on earth.

"How did an entire... city become like this?"

Even with excellent psychological quality, Han Qiu still looked pale and felt a strong fear in his heart.

"Isn't there a ghost?"

Han Qiu leaned slightly towards Zhang Ruochen and nervously grasped the hilt of the sword.

Zhang Ruochen had no expression on his face as he walked up to one of the mummies, squatted down and glanced at the two holes on the mummy's neck.

Zhang Ruochen's pupils shrank and he said, "It is indeed her."

Han Qiu asked: "Who?"

Zhang Ruochen stood up again and said, "Have you heard that the masters from Wu City Academy are dealing with a vampire demon?"

"I have heard of it. It is said that Wu City Academy sent ten masters of the Tianji Realm to deal with her, but she also escaped!"

Han Qiu suddenly came to his senses and said in surprise: "Is she the one who sucked up the blood of these people? There are at least tens of thousands of warriors in the entire Yueji City. With her strength alone, she may not be able to suck out the blood of tens of thousands of warriors. ”

"I guess she has already cultivated blood spirits."

Zhang Ruochen said thoughtfully: "With the help of blood spirits and her own strength, it is actually not difficult to drain all the blood of the warriors in Yueji City. After absorbing so many human beings, Blood, I don’t know how far she has grown?”

Han Qiu looked at Zhang Ruochen in surprise, and said with some confusion: "You seem to know that vampire demon very well!"

"Of course! Because I have met her and know her origins." Zhang Ruochen said.

Han Qiu was startled and curious, and asked: "What is her origin?"

"Now is not the time to talk about that vampire demon, we are in trouble again!"

Zhang Ruochen stared in the direction of the city wall.

"Buzz!"

A swarm of colorful bees flew above the walls of Yueji City, their eyes shining with wisdom, staring at Zhang Ruochen and Han Qiu.

The bodies of those bees are a hundred times larger than ordinary bees, about the size of a fist.

Their wings are spread out and are half a meter long, with sharp stingers on their tails.

At a glance, it looks like a flock of colorful birds flying in the air, hundreds of them.

"Qianli Feng!" Zhang Ruochen said.

Han Qiu also stared at those huge bees and said: "To be able to control so many thousands of miles of bees at the same time, he must be a master among beast masters. As far as I know, there is a strange man named Ling next to the Sifang County Prince. Xian Su' is a master of beast control. Could it be that he caught up?"

"It should be him!" Zhang Ruochen said.

Thousand Miles Bee, a first-level superior beast, has only average attack power. Its real use is to track enemies, survey terrain, and deliver messages.

An average low-level beast master can only raise one or several Thousand Mile Bees.

Being able to dispatch hundreds of thousands of miles of bees at the same time is definitely a master-level figure.

The attack power of the master of beast control is more terrifying than that of ordinary warriors in the Tianji realm, and he can easily destroy a city.

A master of beast control is comparable to an army of hundreds of thousands, and his destructive power on the battlefield is the most powerful.

After those Thousand Mile Bees discovered Zhang Ruochen and Han Qiu, they flew out of Yueji City and went back to notify the master of beast control.

Han Qiu said: "Let's run away before the master of beast control comes after us!"

"Escape? Where to escape?"

Zhang Ruochen said calmly: "What is the most powerful thing about a beast master? It is to control wild beasts and launch attacks on warriors. In Yueji City, there are walls, houses, and formations, which can also cause certain damage to wild beasts. The obstacles will give us a chance to fight back, but it will be even more disadvantageous for us if we escape into the Demon Ridge and be surrounded by a group of beasts."

Han Qiu said: "You mean, we just stay in Yueji City and compete with that master of beast control?"

"We can't compete with the power of a beast control master! We are just trying to delay as much time as possible. We can only hope that the masters from Wushi Academy and Yuntai Sect can arrive early." Zhang Ruochen said.

Han Qiu finally understood what Zhang Ruochen meant. It would be easier for the masters from Wushi Academy and Yuntai Zongfu to find them if they stayed in Yueji City.

If they fled into the vast mountains, they would not only have to face a steady stream of brutal beast attacks, but it would also be difficult for them to wait for experts to rescue them.

Zhang Ruochen began to count the resources that could be used in the storage ring, and took them out one by one.

Thunder beads, forty-five.

Ten bottles of third-grade healing elixir, ten pills in each bottle. Among them, there are elixirs for healing, elixirs for restoring true energy, and elixirs for temporarily increasing strength.

Fourth-grade healing elixir, two bottles, five pills in each bottle.

Attack battle pictures, seven pictures.

Defensive formation flags, two. Attack formation flags, five.

…

Han Qiu stared at Zhang Ruochen taking out a lot of resources from the storage ring, already extremely surprised.

Just those forty-five thunder beads were worth tens of millions of silver coins and had the power to destroy tens of thousands of armies.

There are also those elixirs, battle maps, and formation flags. All the treasures combined are worth at least 30 million silver coins.

She was a rich daughter of the Yuntai clan and a top genius, but compared to Zhang Ruochen, she was simply poor.

Han Qiu picked up one of the battle pictures and opened the sealed sleeve.

On the scroll, the form of a third-level superior beast, a purple-horned beast, was shown, according to the explanation on the battle map. If the battle map is activated, ten purple-horned beasts can be stimulated to help the warriors fight.

The value of this battle map alone is definitely more than two million silver coins.

"Why do you have so many treasures?" Han Qiu asked.

Zhang Ruochen's treasures were naturally taken out from the warehouse of the Red Spider Giant Ship. They were once high-end products that the Poison Spider Chamber of Commerce was preparing to auction.

Zhang Ruochen did not tell her the source of those treasures, but said: "If you want to resist the attack of the beast, you must first set up a formation. I have seen the defense formation of Yueji City, and it has been damaged to a certain extent. Even if it is repaired successfully, , the power will be greatly reduced.”

"There is only one way now, and that is to use the seven formation flags I took out and combine them with the original city protection formation in Yueji City to form a new city protection formation. You go and put the formation flags first, Put it on the city wall."

There are seven formation flags in total, two sets of defensive formation flags, and five sets of attack formation flags.

For each formation, the "Gloomy Skeleton Formation" with the least number of formation flags only has twenty-four formation flags, and the "Thousands of Army and Beasts Formation" with the maximum number of formation flags reaches eighty-one.

The formation flag is a flagpole made of bronze, about seven feet in length. The formation master installs spiritual crystals in the flagpole to provide the energy needed for the formation flag. At the same time, the flag surface was woven with witch gold silk, the formation inscriptions were burned, and it was integrated with the flagpole.

As long as the formation flags are planted on the ground according to certain rules and the warrior uses his true energy, he can activate the formation.

Among the seven formations, even the lowest-priced "Gloomy Skeleton Formation" can be sold for three million silver coins at the auction house of the Poisonous Spider Chamber of Commerce, which is comparable to the total assets of an eighth-rate family.

Zhang Ruochen not only wanted to arrange the seven formations, but also to combine the seven formations with the city defense formation of Yueji City to maximize the power of the formation.

By then, Yueji City would not only be impregnable, but at least it would have the strength to fight an offensive and defensive battle with that master of beast control.

Han Qiu turned into a slim shadow, flew up to the city wall of Yueji City, placed a formation flag on the city wall, and began to arrange the formation.

There is actually no technical content in planting the formation flag, as long as a warrior can basically do it.

For some reason, even though he knew that this battle would be dangerous, Han Qiu was still excited and looking forward to it, and did not feel scared at all.
