The setting sun dyes the earth golden, and blood blooms on the ground.
The scene after the battle was very chaotic, with monks in groups of three or three gathering together to clean up the battlefield.
This battle actually ended very quickly. Neither side regarded it as a decisive game. Judging from the strength they invested, it was more like a test.
When the fighting began to turn intense, the monster side decisively chose to retreat.
They retreated so decisively that the monks who stayed on the battlefield thought it was a ploy to lure the enemy deeper.
They waited for a long time until they saw the retreating monsters return to their previous state of confrontation with them. Only then did these monks realize that they might indeed be thinking too much.
The senior leaders of the Corpse Ghost Sect did not react much to the demonic beast's tentative attack. After the demonic beast chose to retreat, they did not order a pursuit. Instead, they ordered their disciples to clean up the battlefield.
...
When the Corpse Ghost Sect had dealt with the mess, the southern front where Li Xuangang was located had just concluded a battle.
Because the number of monster beasts was too large, there was inevitably some confusion when they retreated. A small number of monster beasts lost their way in the chaos. In the end, they failed to retreat with the other monster beasts, but were confused.
Arriving at the hill defense line.
This group of monsters is small in number, only two to three hundred, and among them there are only two monsters that have reached the third level.
For the monks on the hill defense line, this was a natural disaster. They didn't spend much effort to eliminate them completely.
Since the monks were too numerically superior, there were no survivors of this group of monsters under the huge encirclement they formed.
After the battle, Li Xuangang returned to his temporary cave. He shook the Yin-Naking Gourd at his waist, which contained some of the monster blood he had collected this time.
The size of the monster beast group this time was too small, and he didn't have many opportunities to kill the monster beasts, so naturally he couldn't collect much useful monster blood essence.
In the year that followed, the Corpse Ghost Sect and the monsters in the Hengduan Mountains would fight each other every once in a while, but both sides were determined to stop it. As long as one side started to retreat, the other side would never get involved.
During this period, Li Xuangang also experienced dozens of battles, large and small. In addition to collecting a huge number of monster corpses, he also obtained some very valuable monster materials.
There were too many monster materials, so like most of the tribe, he chose to give his share to his family.
When these materials are shipped back to Wujiangfang City, the family will convert them into corresponding family contributions.
Among the many monster materials, Li Xuangang only left the monster blood. Because the collected monster blood is not only necessary for the corpse refining that has reached the seventh level of Qi refining, but also for Li Xuangang himself.
An essential material for blood violence.
During this year, Li Xuangang also found several suitable opportunities to throw all the corpses of monsters accumulated in the cave into the realm source space.
In order to reduce the chance of being discovered as much as possible, he would first open the door to the source space, then stand outside the door and directly throw the prepared monster corpse in.
When the corpse of the monster beast that was thrown out completely disappeared inside the gate, Li Xuangang immediately took back the Jie Yuan Pearl and swallowed it in his belly.
He threw the corpses of monsters four times in total, which was a huge amount. Although Li Xuangang did not directly enter the source space and feel the specific changes in the concentration of spiritual energy inside, he was sure that the next time he went in, the concentration of spiritual energy inside would be higher.
You will definitely not let yourself down too much.
Maybe the concentration of spiritual energy inside has successfully reached the first-level mid-level.
With such expectations, Li Xuangang sat down cross-legged in the cave, took out the spirit stone and Spring Dew Pill and started practicing.
And the refining corpse shrouded in a black robe was not put into the Yin Gourd by him, but was placed at the entrance of the cave to help him guard.
...
In the blink of an eye, another three years have passed. During this period, countless battles broke out between the Corpse Ghost Sect and the monsters in the Hengduan Mountains. Although each time was not large in scale, the casualties accumulated over time were not small.
.
In the fourth year after Li Xuangang came here, the seventh uncle Li Changzhi suddenly summoned all the Li clan members on the hill and announced a news.
"The Corpse Ghost Sect has decided to launch a general attack!"
Li Changzhi said this.
A battle that has lasted for so long is finally coming to an end. All the Li clan members can't help but feel a sense of relief, but at the same time they are also worried about the next battle.
Seeing the different reactions of many tribesmen, Li Changzhi continued:
"This time we need to start from here, and then act together with the large forces of the Corpse Sect until we have a head-on battle with those monster beasts."
Hearing this, all the Li clan members raised their hands to show their understanding.
Afterwards, under the organization of Zhang Haiyu, the elder of the Ghoul Sect's foundation stage, hundreds of monks stationed on the hill marched to the location of the main battlefield of the Ghoul Sect, preparing to join the large army there.
...
It only took half an hour for the Li clan led by Li Changzhi to join the army of monks organized by the Corpse Ghost Sect.
Since some monks were lost in the battles with monsters in recent years, the Corpse Ghost Sect recruited some more monks from the rear.
With the addition of these monks, the power gathered here by the Corpse Ghost Sect has not only not diminished, but has actually become stronger than when it first came here four years ago.
Li Xuangang was mixed among the huge army of monks, and the familiar faces of the tribe around him gave him a sense of security.
Such a huge move by the Corpse Ghost Sect was naturally discovered early by the group of monsters on the opposite side. They also knew that this battle might be very different from the previous one.
Judging from the menacing posture of those human monks, this time is likely to be the final decisive battle.
Scattered footsteps echoed back and forth on the ground. Li Xuangang raised his head and looked into the sea of people. He saw a huge crystal energy crossbow slowly following them forward driven by the monks.
The huge rock giant apes were also walking slowly among the crowd, carrying on their shoulders the disciples of the Corpse Ghost Sect who were responsible for taming them.
And not far to his right, there were more than a thousand refined corpses exuding a cold aura. These refined corpses were driven by their respective owners and followed the crowd.
What shocked Li Xuangang the most was the large flying boat floating in mid-air above his head. In the previous four years of fighting against monsters, the Corpse Ghost Sect had not even used this large magical weapon.
Now that it has even been taken out, it seems that the Corpse Ghost Sect really wants to decide the outcome in one fell swoop this time.
Surrounded by countless small flying boats, the large flying boat of the Corpse Sect slowly followed the group of monks. When Li Xuangang looked back at it, he could still see the disciples of the Corpse Sect above and the crystal energy on the deck of the flying boat.
Giant crossbow.
Li Xuangang followed the large army for half an hour, and a towering mountain peak gradually became clear in his eyes.
As he got closer and closer to the mountain peak, an increasingly dense aura began to appear around him.
Feeling this spiritual energy, Li Xuangang didn't know what level of spiritual energy there was on this mountain peak, so that he could feel such a strong spiritual energy across such a long distance.
The concentration of spiritual energy here seems to be increasing as he gets closer. Li Xuangang can't help but guess in his heart: Is there a fourth-order spiritual vein on this mountain peak? Or is there a fifth-order spiritual vein?
Li Xuan had never seen a fifth-level spiritual vein. The highest-level spiritual vein he had ever felt was the fourth-level low-grade spiritual vein in Binhaifang City.
Now, Li Xuangang is very sure that the spiritual energy emitted by the spiritual veins on this mountain peak has far exceeded the one in Binhaifang City.
But Li Xuangang was still not sure whether it was the fourth-level high-grade or simply reached the fifth-level.
There were obviously many monks who had the same idea as Li Xuangang. They unconsciously raised their heads and looked at the majestic mountain peak not far away, with a hint of shock in their eyes.
Turning his head to look at the monks with various expressions around him, and then at the tall mountain peaks getting closer and closer, a thought suddenly came to his mind:
"Does the Corpse Ghost Sect really just want to expand the scope of its influence? If the spiritual vein on this mountain peak really reaches the fifth level, will this spiritual vein be the Corpse Ghost Sect's purpose?"
The roars of countless monsters brought Li Xuangang back to reality from his imagination.
The final decisive battle is about to begin.
Among the crowd, Li Changzhi walked silently. He had already told the tribesmen what they should pay attention to.
In a war of this level, you can only rely on yourself.
When the team of monks led by the Corpse Ghost Sect were less than 500 feet away from the mountain where the monsters gathered, the monsters at the foot of the mountain finally got the order from the fourth-level monsters to attack.
As several beams of light emitted by the crystal-energy giant crossbow fell on the charging monster group, it was time for this war that had lasted for many years to come to an end.
