Just as the young men in the Lingtian were cheering because the locust swarm was contained with a single blow from the monks from Tuqiu Village in the south of the village, the faces of Yang Tiangang and others in the south of the village were already gloomy.
It's about to drip!
"Damn it, it's a ghost. This wave of locusts is actually a mixture of giant locusts and ordinary locusts. Isn't it said that every locust swarm crossing the border is giant locusts? How come there are still more than half of ordinary locusts?"
Seeing the insect corpses falling from the sky denser than the rain, with half of the ordinary locusts mixed in, Zhang Blacksmith was so angry that he cursed!
Starting from Shanman Village in Huangshan Town all the way to Tuliang Village in Huangtu Town, the news that came one after another was that a large number of giant locusts were raiding the village. The magic power of the monks in the village was difficult to be as effective as against ordinary locust plagues. After being attacked by giant locusts,
After the locust swarm broke into the village, a large number of ordinary locusts followed, making it more difficult for the monks to distinguish and resist. The spiritual valley that was about to mature in the spiritual field was immediately devoured, causing heavy losses.
For this purpose, Yang Tiangang specially gathered all the monks in Tuqiu Village who were cultivating immortal roots and above, and practiced several times in the south of the village, striving to exert the greatest power in the first strike before the locust swarm arrived, so as to defeat the giant locust swarm that was about to attack.
A heavy hit in one fell swoop.
However, what I didn't expect was that this time the giant locust swarm actually changed its strategy. The first wave of locust swarms that attacked the village were actually giant locusts coercing ordinary locust swarms and attacked together. The momentum seemed even greater than the previous scene of attacking the village, but
The impact is not that strong.
Although Tuqiu Village concentrated all its efforts on this attack, the results were extremely fruitful, but because the giant locusts swarmed the ordinary locust swarms, the damage to the giant locust swarms was mediocre.
The swarm of locusts that had been hollowed out by Tuqiu Village's concentrated attack immediately replenished the insect mountain again, and then rolled towards Tuqiu Village like a giant beast from ancient times, crushing it with an overwhelming force.
.
"Ready, let go!"
Yang Tianggang shouted loudly, and the sound almost spread throughout the entire village through the vibration of spiritual energy in his body. The high-grade magic weapon in his hand suddenly knocked, and countless soot with sparks turned into blazing fireballs in the air, swallowing up the insects that swooped down from the sky.
The group was burned to ashes.
Not far from it, Blacksmith Zhang's middle-grade magic weapon, the forged hammer, does not have a too strong group attack method. Although the forged hammer is very powerful, dealing with countless locust swarms feels like smashing mosquitoes with a hammer.
It took a lot of effort but the results were limited, but he aimed the magic weapon at the fireball Yang Tiangang threw.
Whenever Yang Tiangang knocks out soot fireballs with higher-grade magic weapons, each fireball can cause huge damage to the locust swarm when it rushes into the locust swarm, but the locust swarm can also instinctively avoid danger. When the locust swarm pays the price
After avoiding all the fireballs, Yang Tiangang's ash fireballs were exhausted in advance.
But at this moment, Blacksmith Zhang suddenly used his magic weapon to strike at these fireballs, and then a wave of fire exploded in all directions, forming a sea of fire covering a radius of more than ten feet, which caused a secondary attack on the locust swarm.
The damage, even the damage caused by the fire wave to the locust swarm for the second time was even greater than the first time.
The two old enemies of Tuqiu Village have now joined forces to form Tuqiu Village's frontal defense line against the locust plague, and they cooperate with each other very well. It is precisely because of the leadership of these two people that Tuqiu Village behind them
The monks were able to calmly release the spells that they had finally cast, which not only expanded the results of the battle but also contained the initial crazy attack of the locust swarm. Because of the frontal obstruction in the south of the village, the contained locust swarm naturally began to move towards
The two wings were detoured, and the spells in the southeast and southwest of the village suddenly flourished, but they could not be compared with those in the south of the village.
At this time, the impact of giant locust swarms has become the main force of the locust plague. In the past, even if the monks who laid down their immortal roots used the power of magic rune stones to cast a spell, few locusts could survive within the range of the spell's power.
However, in the face of the impact of giant locusts, even if a monk in the realm of magic casts a spell, he can only kill at most two-thirds of the giant locusts within the spell attack range. The remaining giant locusts will take advantage of the attack.
He rushed into the village between casting spells.
Zhang Tiejiang said loudly: "This won't work. There is no way to stop the giant locusts from infiltrating into the village!"
Yang Tiangang's face was as dark as water. He had already seen that the locust swarm had gradually begun to tilt toward the southwest. That was the direction that Han Xiumei was responsible for defending, and it was also the weakest link in Tuqiu Village's defense. He did not expect that the locust swarm would notice the reality there so quickly.
.
This locust plague is full of weirdness. The giant locusts are surprisingly resistant to magic attacks. They actually know how to coerce ordinary locust swarms to waste the monks' magic power. They can even find weaknesses in the defense. For the first time, Yang Tiangang feels like he is...
Against the same intelligent opponent.
"Originally we didn't think we could stop the giant locust plague. All I wanted to do was delay the giant locust swarm from entering the spiritual fields in the village. The mortals in the village had already been organized to start harvesting the spiritual fields. As long as we delayed here
The longer it goes, the more Lingtian can be harvested, and the smaller our losses will be!"
Yang Tianggang responded loudly to Blacksmith Zhang's words, and at the same time he was explaining to all the monks in Tuqiu Village to boost their morale.
"Haha, that's right!" Blacksmith Zhang also laughed loudly: "I, Mr. Zhang, have always been unconvinced by you, but this time after the locust plague, I, Mr. Zhang, treat you to a drink!"
Yang Tiangang also laughed loudly and said, "It's my turn to treat Brother Zhang to a drink!"
The two people chatting and laughing with ease made the monks in Tuqiu Village, whose morale had become increasingly low and anxious due to the swarms of giant locusts that kept breaking into the village, rise again.
At this time, because the locust swarm had already broken into the defense line within the reach of the spell, Yang Tianggang and others could no longer prevent all the monks from forming a volley of spells. They could only stick to the established defense line and fight on their own, using all their strength.
Following this swarm of giant locusts attacking Tuqiu Village.
At the same time, the mortals in Tuqiu Village have been organized and are harvesting the spiritual fields in Tuqiu Village. Although the spiritual valley is not yet fully mature at this time, early harvesting may reduce the yield, but looking at the village
Once the overwhelming swarm of locusts sweep in, they may not even be able to keep the little spiritual grain they have harvested.
At this time, dozens or hundreds of small locust swarms have broken into the village. Those ordinary locust swarms will pounce on vegetation whenever they see it. Although the spiritual field is more attractive to them, these
Locust swarms are acting more on instinct and will eat ordinary vegetation when they don't find a spiritual field.
After those giant locusts broke into the village, they immediately followed the weak spiritual energy dissipating from the spiritual valley and found the spiritual field. Then they fell on the ears of grain and started to gnaw at them.
The giant locust's upper and lower jaws are extremely sharp and its body is large. More than ten giant locusts pounced on a spiritual grain ear that was about a foot long, and devoured half a cup of tea. After that, these giant locusts still wanted to eat the whole
The stems and leaves of Zhu Linggu have to be eaten up before they can give up.
However, those mortals who are eager to harvest the spiritual grains do not care about the small swarms of locusts that rush into the spiritual fields. Instead, they seize every moment to continue harvesting the spiritual grains. After harvesting, the bundles of spiritual grains are directly tied into piles and piled on the cart.
, after the pile is full, it is pulled into the village and placed directly into each family's house. At the same time, each household's house must be tightly closed and locked to prevent the locust swarms from entering or exiting the house.
But in just a moment, another swarm of locusts rushed into the village, following the spiritual energy escaping from the spiritual valley, to the house where the spiritual grain stacks were piled, covering the ground, walls, and roofs.
At this time, the mortal farmers who were harvesting the spiritual fields of brothers Yang Cunzheng, Yang Tieniu, and Yang Qingniu discovered that although more and more locust swarms were pouring into the village, compared with the spiritual fields of other spiritual farmers, these three families had less
There are very few locust swarms in Lingtian.
However, there are pungent smells coming out from time to time in the spiritual valleys of these three spiritual fields. Especially the farmers who harvest the spiritual fields of Yang Tieniu and Yang Qingniu will be choked with tears and runny noses from time to time. Yang Cunzheng
Although there is a pungent smell coming out of the spiritual field at home from time to time, the smell is much lighter, and the farmers there can barely hold on.
This is because Yang Junshan spread the medicinal powder evenly in the spiritual field, and the two brothers Yang Qingniu and Yang Tieniu obviously did not believe in the efficacy of the medicinal powder, so they were not as careful as Yang Junshan in spreading it. In some places, they spread too much, and in some places they spread too much.
The places where the powder is sprinkled are less, and the farmers are ordinary mortals with no cultivation. When they encounter places where the powder is heavily sprinkled, they often choke and can't stand it.
Just when the monks at the entrance of the village, led by Yang Tiangang, were blocking the swarm of locusts that was attacking Tuqiu Village, Yang Junshan had also completed the final arrangement of the formation in the spiritual field.
Following Yang Junshan's order, several young men in charge of their respective stone plates followed Yang Junshan's instructions and inlaid the jade coins and stone coins in the bags into the grooves of the stone plate. As Yang Junshan finally inlaid the jade coins
Upon completion, the nine young men who began to practice each injected more or less spiritual power in their bodies into the stone plate at their feet.
Buzz——
First, the jade coins embedded in the stone plates flickered with spiritual light, and then faint rays of light flashed from the spiritual cotton threads connecting each stone plate. The entire formation was suddenly activated, and then everyone stood in the formation.
Looking at each other, they couldn't feel anything out of the ordinary.
Su Baozhang asked hesitantly: "Brother Junshan, is this formation successfully deployed?"
Yang Junshan nodded and said: "Yes, it was successful!"
Su Baozhang took two steps in the spiritual field, but still didn't feel any obvious difference, so he asked with some uncertainty: "Is it really successful?"
This time, before Yang Junshan could answer, the younger sister behind him, Yang Junxin, was already dissatisfied with Su Baozhang's doubts about her elder brother, and said loudly: "Why didn't I succeed? I feel like the shoes on my feet are getting heavier!"
Yang Junshan suddenly realized, patted his head and explained: "This formation is simplified from a famous magical power in the cultivation world. Because it is only used to deal with locust plagues, the power of the formation is also greatly weakened.
This formation has a vivid nickname, called the 'one pound' formation, which means that no matter whether you are a huge person or as small as a mosquito, you will suffer an extra pound of weight after entering the formation.
