After waiting for Zhu Hun for two or three days, the foundation-building monks from the four major families in Taicheng County finally gathered at Yanlai Peak.
The Zhu family in Liucheng only has one foundation-building monk, Zhu Hun. Ever since the Lingshi mine was mined, Zhu Hun has been almost permanently stationed in Chaoyin Mountain.
The Zhu family in Liucheng suffered heavy losses in the battle for the Lingshi Mine a few years ago. Although they were not destroyed like the Ma family in Jiufeng Mountain, they had almost given up on their base camp in Liucheng and moved their family to Chaoyin Mountain.
Without the family Lingshan, although the Zhu family still controls a part of the Chaoyin Mountain Lingshi Mine shares and can receive hundreds of Lingshi every year, the more than 30 monks in the family are waiting for support, and these resources are still far from enough.
Even though they have now moved to the foot of Chaoyin Mountain, the Zhu family is still cultivating the spiritual fields near Liucheng. Because of Zhu Hun's intimidation, they can temporarily scare some casual cultivators and ensure the safety of the spiritual fields.
This time, the Zhu family in Liucheng was the farthest away from the locust plague, and the elixirs in the elixir garden had long been snatched away by monks from the Hongshan Sect, and there were no valuable treasures on the mountain gate. Even if they could not stop the large swarm of locusts from attacking, their family's
The losses are also minimal.
Therefore, compared to the worried monks Zhang, Wu, and Liu, Zhu Hun behaved a little more calmly.
Wu Xiangjie saw that all the leaders of the family had arrived, and then he said: "A serious locust plague broke out in the Southern Wilderness. Although the most powerful fourth-level locusts have been killed by the Black Mountain Liang Patriarch, we still cannot underestimate this matter and must advance it in advance.
Be prepared to handle it with caution."
Liu Zixuan frowned and said: "The news came from Montenegro. We have not seen the locust plague with our own eyes. We still don't know the scale and ability of this locust plague. We should go deep into the southern wilderness to investigate. If the situation is not good, immediately
Let Fellow Daoist Zhu go to Chaoyin Mountain to ask for help and ask a senior from Zifuqi to take charge of the situation."
Wu Xiangjie nodded and said: "It is rumored that this locust has crossed Heishan and entered the buffer zone between Taicheng County and Heishan. The monks on Heishan have suffered heavy losses now and are cleaning up the mess. It is estimated that there will be no manpower to support us. This is fine.
There are seven of us now, except for one who stays behind at Yanlai Peak, the remaining six are divided into three groups and go to the Southern Wilderness to personally investigate the enemy's situation."
After the discussion was finalized, Zhang Zhixuan and Liu Zixuan flew directly from Yanlai Peak and headed southeast towards Nanhuang.
Zhang Zhixuan went to the southeast, Zhu Hun and Wu Xiangjie went to the south, and Wu Xiangwen and Wu Xianghuai went to the southwest.
Three groups of people formed a fan and cautiously entered the southern wilderness.
Zhang Zhixuan and his two men had just entered the Southern Wilderness for three days when they discovered a large swarm of locusts.
This swarm of locusts was so numerous that it was as dark as a huge mountain, forming a huge black cloud that blocked the sun. It was impossible to see even one's finger beneath the locusts, just like the pitch-black night sky.
In order to find out the details of the locusts, Zhang Zhixuan and the two had no choice but to risk getting closer.
As the two of them gradually approached the locust swarm, Zhang Zhixuan looked up and saw that these locusts were extremely large, far exceeding the types Zhang Zhixuan had seen in his previous life. The smallest ones were over three inches tall, and the slightly larger ones were over an inch tall.
There are even some that exceed the size of the fire crystal ant monster, as if it were a calf over three feet tall.
This locust demon has ferocious habits and is quite bloodthirsty.
Their mouthparts are quite sharp and can easily cut through the fur of predators.
Zhang Zhixuan witnessed with his own eyes that in the blink of an eye, a ferocious cheetah was devoured by thousands of giant locusts.
Wherever they passed, everything immediately became barren of vegetation, and all flowers, plants, trees, birds, fish and turtles were eaten up and wiped clean by the giant locusts.
With their endless numbers, even some monster beasts became food for the monster locusts wherever they went, leaving not even a single bone behind.
The number of locusts in front of us alone exceeds several million. Such a swarm of locusts poses a greater threat to the monks than the fire crystal ant nest that year.
Just the demonic locusts in front of us are so troublesome. It is said that the Black Mountain demonic locusts are divided into dozens of groups. Once the demonic locusts enter Taicheng County, the monks may be able to save their lives, but the mortals who have settled there may be dead or injured.
Mortals are the foundation of immortal cultivators. If there are too many casualties, the immortal cultivators will be unable to continue.
Seeing the ferocity of the demon locust, Zhang Zhixuan and Liu Zixuan looked at each other, with a trace of cold sweat breaking out on their faces.
"Zhang Daoyou, you have high cultivation level and great magical powers. Do you want to test the foundation of the locust demon? I will listen to your call." Liu Zixuan has been building the foundation for sixty years, but his cultivation level is only five levels. Since the foundation building, because there is no
With further plans and busy family affairs, his cultivation speed was relatively slow and was no longer as fast as Zhang Zhixuan's rapid progress.
During the Battle of Chaoyin Mountain, Zhang Zhixuan's supernatural powers had opened Liu Zixuan's eyes. He had already been convinced of Zhang Zhixuan, so he was willing to obey Zhang Zhixuan's orders.
Both Zhang and Liu are monks in the middle stage of foundation building. As long as their magic power is not exhausted, their flying speed is far faster than that of the demonic locusts, and they can escape danger at any time. Because safety is guaranteed, the two of them dare to try to eliminate this locust.
"Okay, let's try the demon locust's strength first."
As soon as Zhang Zhixuan finished speaking, he immediately spit out a piece of Samadhi True Fire from his Dantian. The Samadhi True Fire turned into a few sparks and easily burned each giant locust to ashes.
Most of these giant locusts were mortal. As long as they were touched by a spark, they could not resist them. In an instant, Zhang Zhixuan burned to death tens of thousands of giant locusts.
But the number of giant locusts seemed to be endless. One after another, the giant locusts rushed towards Zhang Zhixuan without fear of death, trapping him firmly in the huge black cloud.
Zhang Zhixuan burned a thousand giant locusts to death, and immediately tens of thousands of giant locusts continued to surround them, as if the insect king was commanding them. This endless number of enemies annoyed Zhang Zhixuan the most. He teamed up with Liu Zixuan to fight against the enemy.
A hundred feet of space near them was quickly cleared.
But this result is only insignificant to the insect swarm that has no end in sight.
The two kept flying and moving among the giant locusts, not letting the giant locusts trap them in the middle. They kept using a wide range of spells, killing the locusts one by one.
Both of them were monks in the middle of the foundation building period, and their magic power was very deep. In just two hours, they eliminated half of the locusts and cleared a space of more than ten miles.
Perhaps it was because Zhang Zhixuan and the two attacked the locust swarm too hard, and the insect king hiding in the locust swarm finally stopped hiding.
Boom boom boom.
A harsh sound came from the front, and a locust demon over seven feet tall appeared in front of Zhang Zhixuan and the others.
This locust is blood red all over, with a vague smell of blood on it. It looks very ferocious and terrifying. Judging from the faint coercion exuding from its body, this insect king has reached the third level of low-grade.
