Strange mountains and rivers

The same method was adopted for Yang Husheng.

Chu Yingqi's situation was slightly different. He suffered a strong backlash when he activated the earth-based spell, which directly caused serious damage to his spiritual roots, Tao bones and even meridians.

Chu Yingqi's injury was more serious than that of Zhao Sitian and Yang Husheng. The combination of water shield and prune, combined with the nourishment of yuan salmon, was a gradual process over time.

The second day was unusually quiet. Only two Moyun White Eagles made a surprise attack from the air. However, they encountered a counterattack from the Sky Crossbow. One Moyun White Eagle was killed and the other escaped.

But there were only two second-level monsters attacking, the Qingya side wolf did not appear, and Aolong was nowhere to be seen. This silence made Chen Huaisheng and everyone in Yun Zhongshan feel very uneasy.

Early in the morning on the third day, Zhao Sitian broke through to build the second level of the foundation, while Teng Dingyuan over there also broke through and successfully built the foundation.

If it doesn't come out, nothing will come out, but if it moves, everything will move.

The good news is exciting, but Xiong Zhuang went to the Longlinyuan area again for reconnaissance, and the news he got back was a series of bad news, which made people worried.

Longlinyuan was attacked by multiple rounds of monsters in succession. Three of them broke through the middle circle of defenses and entered Longlinyuan, which also caused huge casualties.

Among them, after two days of encirclement and suppression, the three ghost jackals were finally killed, but the cost was huge. Liu Zhengfeng was seriously injured, a foundation builder was killed, and many high-level Qi refiners were lost.

In this state, it is difficult to imagine how Longlinyuan will survive the coming winter.

Zhao Sitian was promoted to the second level, and Teng Dingyuan successfully built the foundation, which made the entire Yunzhong Mountain heave a sigh of relief.

But only a few of them knew that this change was far from enough for the current wave of monsters.

Perhaps the initial stage of foundation building can play some role when ordinary second-order monsters invade, but even for second-order high-grade monsters and third-order monsters, the strength of the initial stage of foundation building is far from enough, and they must rely on magic circles to do so. Only with support can you withstand it.

But even with the help of magic circles, they can only passively resist to a large extent. It is difficult to kill the invading monsters directly. It is more about buying time for Chen Huaisheng, Song Daoyang and Xiong Zhuang to launch a fatal blow.

"This is the third day." Chen Huaisheng looked at the snow-covered scenery outside the window. The snow had stopped, "I wonder what the situation is like in Longlinyuan today?"

"Huai Sheng, what you should consider is whether something will happen to us at Yunzhong Mountain today." Zhao Sitian, who was promoted to the second level of foundation building, did not have the optimism and joy after his promotion. Instead, he became more calm, "There is a large formation to protect the mountain in Longlin Plain. , as well as Master Zhu and Master Li, there are a lot of them in the middle section of the foundation building section. As long as we rely on the magic circle to delay the time and Master Zhu and Master Li deal with them in time, it won’t be a big problem.”

"That's not to say." Teng Dingyuan became much more confident after building the foundation, but he still shook his head when faced with this question: "I feel that the monsters that appear now are stronger than we originally expected. I don't know if they are. It’s not my misunderstanding. It turns out that Master Liu is one of the most talented people in our old Lingyun Sect. He is at the peak of foundation building and the Purple Mansion is in sight. However, he was seriously injured when he relied on the magic circle to kill the ghost jackal. In this case, Master Li Yu still acted as the main force. Under the circumstances, I think it shouldn’t be like this.”

This feeling and impression was not unique to Teng Dingyuan, but also to Chen Huaisheng and Zhao Sitian.

In the original impression, it should be completely possible to deal with or even kill the first-order demonic beasts at the middle level of Qi Refining, but it is not possible now. It is almost impossible to kill some top-grade first-level demonic beasts at the mid-level Qi Refining level, which can only be dealt with by the high level of Qi Refining. , and the changes in the second-level monsters are even more prominent.

Even if it is a low-level second-level monster, it can basically be barely dealt with by the ninth level and the peak level of Qi Refining. The middle-level requires foundation building to withstand it. Generally, the middle level of foundation building can only deal with the second-level high-level monster. Chen Huaisheng is Relying on his superhuman magical combat power, he dared to fight against the third-level monsters.

What everyone feels is that the strength of these monsters seems to have improved during this specific period of beast tide, and the increase in strength is about 10 to 20%.

This also caused everyone's dislocation during the battle and also caused huge casualties.

Chen Huaisheng thought for a while and then said: "It may be related to the changes brought about by the tide of monsters. We don't know the situation in the Forbidden Land, but we can feel that the winter in the past ten years has been getting colder year by year, and the Forbidden Land The environment of these monsters has probably changed, and the environment that created these monsters must have changed as well. We should be lenient if we anticipate the enemy, so we all have to be cautious."

"I wonder what will happen this winter?" Teng Dingyuan laughed at himself: "I just stayed in seclusion for a few days, and as soon as I opened my eyes, it was like this. Songtao Taoist Temple was actually destroyed, and Longlinyuan was also attacked repeatedly. It shouldn't be just us Chonghua Is this true? What about the Tianhe Sect in the northwest, the Yuelu Sect in the west, and the Fengyi Sect in Zhaigu Road? Are they okay? "

This question also asked the thoughts of everyone present.

Could it be that the Chonghua family was so unlucky that they were besieged by monsters?

Other sects and aristocratic families also have many monks and Taoist cultivators, so are they safe and sound?

Hebei is like this, what about Zhao?

Could it be that a Yellow River could block these second- and third-level monsters that could fly in the wind?

Not to mention that there are also many forbidden areas in Da Zhao.

It doesn't make sense.

However, now the main energy of the Chonghua Sect is on dealing with the attack of monsters, and there is not much thought to investigate the situation of external sects and families, especially in the wild where monsters are rampant, and if you don't pay attention, you will die. , it would be safer to stay in the mountains.

However, for a large local sect, Chen Huaisheng still felt that the sect should send some people out to inquire about the situation. It should not be trapped just because of the difficulties in the mountains, so he sent a few disciples with advanced Qi refining levels to go out and inquire about the situation. It has no impact on combat effectiveness, it can be done completely.

"It must be difficult for everyone, but our Chonghua sect may be even worse." Chen Huaisheng said calmly: "A large number of our elite disciples have gone to Chongyang Mountain in Ji County, and most of the elders are also there. If they all Why is it concentrated in Wolong Ridge?”

"Huaisheng, do you think the sect will take this opportunity to completely abandon Wolong Ridge and return to Zhao?" Teng Dingyuan couldn't help but ask.

"It's hard to say." Chen Huaisheng once thought that it shouldn't be the case. At least the conditions of Wolong Ridge are here, and it is more than enough to be a lower house. It would be a pity to give up and give outsiders an advantage in vain.

But now the attack of monsters seems to be connected with the unlucky Wolong Ridge.

The shadow of the former Dongxuan Sect's collapse made many people fearful from the beginning, and they always felt that they had not made the right choice. This was always said within the sect.

But at that time, I had already settled in Wolong Ridge and had no choice. But now that I have a better choice and can return to Da Zhao, it is estimated that after this disaster is over, the voice will be even louder.

While several people were talking, someone outside the door said: "Senior Brother Song is back."

Chen Huaisheng stood up and said, "Brother Daoyang is back?"

Song Daoyang's face was still a little gloomy, but his mental state was much better than the previous two days. Seeing everyone there, he quickly greeted and said: "After returning to the Taoist Temple, I went to Longlinyuan to observe again. The situation is not good."

Chen Huaisheng was surprised. He knew that Song Daoyang was going back to Songtao Taoist Temple to pack up the things he had not taken away. Considering that it would be convenient for Song Daoyang to go alone and escape, he said nothing. He did not expect that the other party went to Longlinyuan.

"Did you encounter anything?" Chen Huaisheng asked quickly.

"I met Aolong, we fought for a while, and left without any entanglement." Song Daoyang Yaoyaotou said: "Dragon Linyuan may be in some trouble. There are too many monsters. I saw a wolf beside Qingya. There were at least three or four There were about ten animals in each group, as well as red-haired mammoths, dire wolves, fire-maned lions, blood vultures, and ghostly beasts. They all appeared, but the number was unknown. I didn’t dare to get too close, so I used my psychic After looking in the mirror,... it seems that in the Dongfu Taoist Temple outside the mountain gate, only Xiangyang Valley and Yunzhong Mountain are left..."

Zhao Sitian and Teng Dingyuan both turned pale, which meant that several other Taoist caves either suffered disasters or fled into Longlin Plain, but it is estimated that the former is more likely.

Now that so many third-level monsters have gathered here, doesn't it mean that Yunzhongshan is also likely to be attacked?

The distance between the two sides is only about twenty miles, and you can get there in less than a cup of tea.

Chen Huaisheng had expected it. When Xiangyang Valley was attacked, both the blood vulture and the fire-maned lion appeared, which was completely normal.

But I didn't expect Guiyuan Mangxu to come out as well.

"The target of Dragon Linyuan is too big. There are so many monks and Taoist species gathered there, and the spiritual power is too strong. As long as the monsters in Fuyang Dao from the forbidden area in the north will be aware of it, it is impossible not to get involved. The key is If they are all gathered together, it will be very troublesome. If they go one after another, the Shanmen Array and Uncle Master can still handle it. "

Chen Huaisheng spread his hands helplessly: "We can't control that much. All we can do is survive these days and wait until reinforcements arrive."

Zhao Sitian and Teng Dingyuan both looked at Chen Huaisheng's face, as did Song Daoyang: "Huaisheng, the reinforcements you said are more powerful than Senior Xiong?"

"Well, we'll know when the time comes." Chen Huaisheng also knew that in fact, everyone in Yunzhongshan still didn't recognize the alien cultivators that much. Even if the Zhao Dynasty had already lifted the ban for one night, in this state, Xiong Zhuang's appearance to save him In front of everyone, Zhao Sitian, Yang Husheng, Chu Yingqi and Chen Huaisheng were almost all rescued by Xiong Zhuang alone. There is nothing to say about this kind of gratitude, and Teng Dingyuan has always been on good terms with Chu Yingqi and Yang Husheng, so Still very grateful.

In Chen Huaisheng's view, this is a good start.

Human monks have always been incompatible with foreign cultivators, but he gets along very well with foreign cultivators. Zhao Sitian, Teng Dingyuan and others have already joined Yunzhong Mountain. They will inevitably get along with each other for a long time in the future. How to work together and at least live in harmony? It is also a test for myself.

The sound of rapid footsteps came from outside the door, "Senior Brother, there is a fire request message three miles north!"
