Wu Muyang was right. The Purple-Eyed Demon King would not fight alone with Lin Xiao and so many others. The demon clan's biggest advantage was its large number. Many demon beasts were their demon clan's cannon fodder and could be used at will.
"Then Ancestor Wu thinks this time the beast wave must be fought according to the previous fighting method?"
"That's natural. The army of monsters also eats. If they get together, most of the monsters will become food for those ferocious monsters, and they will be self-defeating by then.
So what we have to do is to stick to Lingshan, constantly divide the number of monsters and beasts, and exchange space for advantages. When their number becomes smaller and smaller, we can continue to attack and weaken their strength. When the number of monsters and beasts is reduced, we can continue to attack.
When it reaches a certain level, the purple-eyed demon king will feel a sense of crisis that it is surrounded, and then the army of demon beasts will naturally disperse.
Of course, I heard that Master Lin has the means to kill the Shenxu monks. You can also go to the wilderness and kill the purple-eyed demon king, and then the beast tide will be lifted."
"Old Ancestor Wu was joking. That kind of method can only be used once in a lifetime. How can there be anything else?"
"Forget it if you don't. This time you and I are probably the main targets of the monster army. Leader Lin, I hope you won't take advantage of others. This is not a conflict within our human race, but a war between two races. We must not let the barbarians
Advance towards the human defense line"
"This is natural. Since Old Ancestor Wu is unwilling to cooperate, then forget it. I hope Old Ancestor Wu lives well. When you die, Cang Country will not be able to survive."
"you···"
"Haha, see you again, Ancestor Wu"
Lin Xiao laughed. He didn't know how long Wu Muyang's life span was, but it would never exceed a hundred years. Within this hundred years, even if the Cang Kingdom cultivated spiritual light monks, they would not be the opponents of the Wu Kingdom. Annexing them would be just a matter of words.
The matter of words.
And Lin Xiao didn't mind taking back the occupied territory from the monsters. By then, Lin Xiao would be famous for his skills, no one else could blame him.
Lin Xiao returned to Ningcui Mountain and continued to issue orders, asking mortals to start harvesting grain and transporting it to major spiritual mountains. He also began to evacuate mortals and asked them to take refuge in various spiritual mountains.
At the same time, those first- and second-level spiritual mountains must also be given up. Those who cannot hold on will simply concentrate their efforts and hide on those third-level spiritual mountains. There is still hope of saving them.
As Lin Xiao's orders continued to be issued, everyone, whether monks or mortals, became busy, and Wu Kingdom's internal forces were constantly mobilized for support. In less than half a month, more than 100,000 monks from Wu Kingdom had gathered in the Ningcui Mountain area.
As the number of monks continues to increase, the speed of eradicating the locust plague is also accelerating. Although the locusts continue to hatch, it is difficult to break through the monks' defense line. For this reason, the Tiansheng Sect has sacrificed tens of thousands of acres of spiritual fields.
The Lingtian north of Ningcui Mountain has been saved, and harvesting has begun in advance. It is not known how long the next beast tide will last. Bulk materials such as Lingmi must be reserved in advance. In addition to harvesting Lingmi, each sect
In addition to rice, I also purchased a lot from outside.
After the defense line stabilized, Lin Xiao mobilized 10,000 elite soldiers, all of whom had the lowest cultivation level, and began to bypass the severe locust plague areas and head towards the buffer zone with the wilderness to destroy the insect eggs.
Different from Bai Zichen's previous small fights, this time tens of thousands of people acted with great momentum and used many methods. It was not only as simple as setting fire to the ice, but also began to use various methods to eliminate these insect eggs.
The Beast Control Hall of Tiansheng Sect brought over thousands of golden pheasants. These golden pheasants have been domesticated for a long time. Generally speaking, they are used as a source of spiritual meat for the city of cultivating immortals. To put it bluntly, they are used to kill and eat meat.
However, these thousands of golden pheasants are more effective than five thousand monks. Chicken monsters are the natural enemies of these insects. It is not a problem for a golden pheasant to eat hundreds of locusts in a day, but if it is replaced by insect eggs, it will be even more.
Yes, even some insect eggs that are hidden deep in the soil and cannot be discovered by the monks can be dug out and eaten by the golden pheasants.
As soon as he discovered this effect, Lin Xiao asked the merchants in Gongming City to collect golden pheasants. Now they are sending a steady stream of golden pheasants to the Ningcui Mountain area. When the time comes, these golden pheasants will be fed, which can be used as food to resist the army of monsters, killing two birds with one stone.
.
In addition to the golden pheasant, there is also the method of poisoning, mixing some elixirs with poison, and then deliberately letting the locusts eat them, which can kill the locusts on a large scale.
Ten thousand troops plus a team of tens of thousands of golden pheasants were constantly cleaning up the buffer zone. After half a month of hard work, the locust plague in Wu State was basically under control, and they were even able to assist Cang State and bring Cang State to its aid.
A large amount of eggs were consumed in the country's buffer zone.
As the locust plague stabilized, the monster army began to move. Lin Xiao also used Wu Guo's wealth, and a total of four warships were dispatched.
Only one of these four battleships was built with money from the Tiansheng Sect, and the rest were captured by them when they eliminated Poisonous Scorpion. I don’t know where they snatched them from, but they belonged to the Wu Kingdom anyway.
Four warships carrying thousands of monks took the initiative to attack the monster army in the wilderness. Although Lin Xiao had set a conventional strategy, it did not mean that Lin Xiao had to be passively beaten. This was not in line with Lin Xiao's wishes.
His character is naturally meant to weaken the power of the monster army.
"Boom, boom, boom"
The four warships combined had hundreds of Xuanjing cannons or god-destroying crossbows on one side. Under the salvo, countless monsters were beaten into powder. More monsters panicked and fled for their lives. Even the Zhi clan
Monsters can no longer be controlled.
"kill"
"Kill a demon king, change into a fifth-level magical weapon, and charge."
Under the battleship, thousands of elites also launched a charge at the same time. Li Muxue, Bai Xixi, Bai Zichen, Ye Nanyu and Danyang Sect Lengning under the Tiansheng Sect also appeared. Coupled with Lin Xiaohe's system real-person mode, seven spiritual monks faced off against each other.
Launched an attack with three fifth-level monsters.
"boom"
This time, the thick-skinned Wild Boar King could not escape. Under the siege of Lin Xiao and others, he was finally killed. Before the beast wave was dispatched, the monster army had already lost a general. This made Qinglei Peak go up
The purple-eyed demon king was furious and took action personally, heading towards the frontline of the wilderness.
"withdraw"
The purple-eyed demon king was dispatched with an extremely terrifying momentum. Lin Xiao could feel it thousands of miles away. Lin Xiao immediately ordered the monks to retreat, even if the battlefield was not cleared yet.
"Master, do you want to have a fight? I'm sure to hit it hard."
"No need, Muxue, it's not the best to kill the purple-eyed demon king now."
Li Muxue was a little ready to make a move. She wanted to kill the purple-eyed demon king. The materials were a huge sum of money. Even if she sold the materials, they would be worth hundreds of millions. If she digested them by herself, it would be no problem to multiply them several times.
However, Lin Xiao refused. Li Muxue wanted to severely damage it, but the price was not small. There was really no need, as long as the beast tide was repelled.
Tens of thousands of monks retreated quickly and soon returned to Ningcui Mountain. At this time, the locust plague near Ningcui Mountain was already very weak, and the spiritual rice had long been eaten away, so Lin Xiao dispersed and stationed hundreds of thousands of monks in Ningcui Mountain. On several spiritual mountains, the strategy of fortifying the walls and clearing out the wilderness began, and about 90% of the remaining mortals were evacuated. As for the remaining ones, there was nothing they could do.
Linxiao in Ningcui Mountain has arranged a fifth-level formation. A huge amount of Xuan Crystal has been stored on the mountain to make up for the lack of spiritual veins. Several war fortresses have been built on the mountain, and Xuan Crystal cannons have been constructed to build Ningcui Mountain. It has become an iron wall.
The Purple-Eyed Demon King did not rush ahead because of greed, and acted together with a large army of demon beasts. The scale of the beast tide this time was much larger than that of more than two hundred years ago, and the number in the Wu Kingdom alone reached three million In addition to the above, there are estimated to be seven to eight million people in Cang Kingdom and Qianluo Kingdom, and the total number of monks in these countries is less than one million.
··········
"Ye Nanyu"
"Here, leader"
"Where are the reinforcements from Lu State and Tian Eclipse State?"
"Near Chen Qing Valley, they have a total of 100,000 troops, but they are not willing to press them all. They are only willing to give 50,000 people to our command."
"Fifty thousand people are enough. Tell Leng Ning that they must not be used as cannon fodder. They must be treated equally. After they have made great contributions, they must be treated the same way as our people. Otherwise, how can they work for us? "
Lin Xiao once again warned that it was good enough that the two countries were willing to send troops under the pressure of the Wu Kingdom. Lin Xiao did not expect them to really fight to the end for the Wu Kingdom. It was enough that they were willing to fight for those meritorious deeds.
Now Wu Kingdom has set up a dragnet, using most of the former Chen Kingdom's territory as the battlefield, and the Lingshan Mountains in the east are connected to form a line of defense to prevent the monster army from entering the hinterland of Wu Kingdom. There has been no war there for hundreds of years. , a densely populated and prosperous society, once invaded by monsters, the Wu Kingdom would be devastated.
This place with a radius of five or six thousand miles is the battlefield where the monster army is dispersed. In the Ningcui Mountain area, there are only six spiritual mountains holding on, and there are less than 80,000 monks. This time, the reinforcements from the Lu State and the Tian Eclipse State are included. , Wu State mobilized a total of almost 300,000 people.
"Yes, I have told Ancestor Leng many times, it should know what to do."
"What's going on with Cang, Qianluo, and Wei?"
"The army has been prepared for war and is ready, but the leader has some bad news that I don't know whether to tell or not."
"Say, how bad could the news be?"
"The Triangle Demon King to the southwest of Weiguo also launched a beast wave. Although not as powerful as the Purple Eyed Demon King, there were still two to three million people. The Canglong Lion King 20,000 miles northwest of Weiguo also made strange movements. We are mobilizing troops and generals. It is estimated that the scale is not small, there are several million people in total.
Now the combined army of the three sixth-level demon kings has exceeded 10 million, involving eleven countries at the southwest end of Nanzhou. The three countries at the west end of Nanzhou have also been swept in. The entire front line has exceeded 30,000 miles. "
"You mean, this time the beast wave may be caused by a higher-level demon king who wants to start a war between the two races?"
"Ye Xiao has this analysis, but we think this is a test. In a real battle between the two clans, the mobilization of monks starts with tens of millions, while the mobilization of monsters starts with hundreds of millions. It has not yet reached this level of intensity."
Ye Nanyu shook his head, and the three sixth-level demon kings launched at the same time. This was indeed a bit abnormal, and he didn't know what was going on. Now he was very worried that this was a war between the two clans.
