Mortal Seeking Immortal

Near noon, a long black line appeared on the distant horizon.

Dong, Dong, Dong!

A bell rang on the city wall, and all the monks gathered on the city wall almost at the same time, holding various magic weapons, and looking at the distant Ghost Desert vigilantly.

Li Zhou stood by the city wall and said solemnly: "The insect fog is coming! Quickly form a formation!"

As soon as the voice fell, a group of monks standing behind Li Zhou pinched the magic formula with their hands and formed a formation to wait.

At the same time, a series of magic array lights kept lighting up on the west city wall, but in the blink of an eye, all the monks guarding on the west city wall had completed the formation, and the insect fog in the distance was closer to the city wall.

It was not until this time that Ye Zhou and others were able to see the full picture of the insect fog.

Hundreds of millions of flying spirit insects were like locusts passing through, blocking the sun, and the buzzing sound shook the ground slightly.

Various auras, such as the powerful Jindan Great Perfection Realm and the weaker Foundation Establishment Realm, were released from the insect fog. Even with the city defense array to resist, some monks with lower cultivation were still shocked by these auras and turned pale and depressed.

Wherever the insect fog passed, heavy yellow sand was rolled up, forming a sandstorm, blocking the monks' vision.

Not long after, the insect fog and the sandstorm were only a hundred meters away from the west wall.

The insect fog had entered the attack range of the array.

"Pass me the message, attack!"

The old man in Taoist robes had led people to the city wall to issue orders without knowing when.

With his command, various arrays on the city wall began to operate with a bang, and countless colorful array lights lit up on the city wall one after another.

Tens of thousands of ice cones, fireballs, poisonous fog and other attack methods flew out from the city wall, crashing into the insect fog like missiles. Soon, a dense layer of spirit insect corpses piled up on the ground.

However, most of these dead spirit insects were in the foundation building stage, and only a few were in the core stage.

The spirit insects that made up the insect fog seemed to be unable to sense the danger. The death of their companions could not stop them, and the insect fog continued to approach the city wall.

Seventy, fifty, ten.

Seeing the insect fog getting closer and closer, the Taoist robe old man waved his sleeves and said, "Do it!"

The voice was like thunder, resounding throughout the entire western city wall.

On the city wall, more formations began to operate with a bang, and the monks urged the magic weapons to form formations to attack the insect fog.

Outside the city wall, the insect fog had blocked out the sun. All the light was blocked by the insect fog and the sandstorm. With the light of the formation as bright as daylight, it was still possible to see clearly. Countless corpses of spirit insects fell to the ground like a rainstorm.

Soon, the ground was covered with a thick layer of spirit insect corpses, and no trace of yellow sand could be seen.

Under the intensive attacks of various formations and magic weapons, the speed of the insect fog approaching was significantly slowed down.

But before the monks could catch their breath, several crisp and strange whistles sounded from the depths of the insect fog, and the insect fog stopped moving forward.

A monk saw this scene and said with joy: "Is the insect fog going to retreat?"

No one around answered him, because everyone's mind was attracted by a dull rustling sound.

This sound is not unfamiliar to the monks who often go to the Ghost Desert. It is the sound of spirit insects devouring food.

As the rustling sound approached, a monk who had practiced pupil skills exclaimed: "Insect tide! It's an insect tide coming!"

Insect tide!

The faces of the monks changed drastically, and they were all ready for battle.

Not long after, a swarm of insects composed of various spirit insects crawled over the densely packed spirit insect corpses on the ground, devouring the spirit insect corpses while approaching Xianliu City.
