The mere seven of them seemed so frail in the face of the massive beast tide. It was as though they were a small boat facing the vast waves and could capsize at any time.
The beast tide was getting closer and closer, and the trembling of the ground was getting more and more intense. Those martial artists who were filled with lofty aspirations and thought that they could repel the enemy with their hot-bloodedness finally felt a trace of fear. Only when they truly faced such an unstoppable force would they realize how insignificant they were.
It was unknown who took the lead, but there were finally some martial artists who began to slowly retreat. Soon after, there was no stopping them. All the martial artists who were charging at the front turned around and fled frantically, trying to distance themselves from the beast tide.
However, it was already too late. They had charged too far previously, and some of the weaker martial artists were pulled closer by the beast tide. Soon after, they were engulfed by the beast tide. There was no need for the beast tide to purposely deal with them. Just the momentum of the beast tide was enough to crush them into nothingness.
Lu Xuan and the others didn't go forward to rescue them. It wasn't that they didn't want to, but they couldn't. Let alone those martial artists, even Lu Xuan and the others would most likely die if they were caught in such a ferocious beast tide. Even Sword Demon Ye Wenjun, who had dominated the Sky Sword Continent in the past, wouldn't be an exception.
No one knew how many powerful Demonic Sovereigns were hidden in this beast tide. The reason why the beast tide was so terrifying was that it wasn't something that could be dealt with by just a few people. An elite martial artist might be able to turn the tide and save a building from collapse, but it was impossible to eliminate such a disaster without leaving a trace. The alliance of Lu Xuan and the others was merely trying to help the Nine Dragons Empire withstand the first wave of the beast tide. They never thought of completely stopping it.
Some Origin Realm martial artists soared into the sky, trying to find a chance of survival from the sky. However, countless flying demonic beasts soared into the sky and used their sharp claws to scratch their backs before throwing them into the beast tide. There was no chance of survival.
"Save … save us!" Several martial artists who were good at movement techniques were the fastest to escape. They were already less than a hundred feet away from Lu Xuan and the others. However, the beast tide was getting closer and closer. It wouldn't take them more than a hundred feet to completely catch up. Seeing that there was no hope of escaping, they could only desperately cry for help from Lu Xuan and the others.
Seeing this, Lu Xuan could not bear to see this. He waved his hand to condense a giant hand in the void, grabbed them, and tossed them backward. Several bird monsters were not willing to let go of this opportunity. They immediately sped up and rushed forward, trying to stop them. However, Lu Xuan shot out a sword qi right behind them, instantly cutting them in half, and they fell straight down.
At this moment, the beast tide was less than fifty feet away from Lu Xuan and the group. and the beast tide was about. and the battle was going to start. Regardless of whether it was the soldiers of the Nine Dragons Empire or the cultivators who had retreated to the back, all of them held their breaths and widened their eyes as they stared at the seven people. Their results would directly affect the outcome of this battle!
"Why aren't they attacking?" The same thought appeared in everyone's mind. Everyone's heart clenched. The feeling of facing the beast tide personally and hearing the word "beast tide" from someone else were worlds apart.
Three hundred feet!
Lu Xuan took a deep breath and shouted in a deep voice, "Kill!"
"Kill!"
Seven extremely strong murderous auras soared into the sky. Their powerful auras actually overturned the demonic beasts at the front of the beast tide!
The seven of them sped up at the same time. They didn't retreat, but advanced instead. They charged towards the beast tide without hesitation. Seven sword strikes destroyed a hundred thousand demonic beasts.
The fastest one wasn't Lu Xuan or Ye Wenjun. It was Ling Jin. Her purple robes were like a purple stream of light. In an instant, she traversed through space and plunged into the thick beast tide. Wherever she went, she was like a hot knife through butter. Limbs flew everywhere.
Ling Jin's fighting style was simple and violent. She was invincible. On her path, not a single demonic beast could survive. Different from the Human Race, the Demon Race was the only race that could compete with the demonic beasts in terms of physical strength. In fact, the Demon Race was even stronger. With Ling Jin's speed, ordinary demonic beasts couldn't even touch her. Even if they clawed at her twice, it would just be a drizzle.
Ye Wenjun's fighting style was the most elegant. He held a sword in his right hand and formed a hand seal with his left. Facing the beast tide, he didn't take the initiative to attack. Instead, he just stood where he was. All the demonic beasts that passed by him were beheaded. In front of the beast tide, which was regarded as a great flood and ferocious beast by countless cultivators, he casually plucked off the heads of the demonic beasts as though he was taking a stroll in the park.
If this beast tide was compared to a vast wave, then Ye Wenjun would undoubtedly be a reef in the sea. No matter how many huge waves came, they would all die on top of this reef. With him here alone, no demonic beast would be able to pass by. In just a few breaths of time, Ye Wenjun's surroundings were already filled with corpses.
As for Ye Wuhen, Ye Guangjian, and the others, although they weren't as outstanding as Ling Jin and Ye Wenjun, they also showed great strength. They each took a side and waved their hands. Sword Qi crisscrossed and formed an inescapable net. Maybe some demonic beasts slipped through the net, but more demonic beasts were lying dead on the ground.
The last one to guard the rear was the youngest Lu Xuan. Infected by the blood Qi, Lu Xuan's eyes were filled with a strange blood-red color. He quietly opened his Field of Sword Principle, and then extended it to a hundred feet. He alone was a sword formation!
The Slaughter Sword Principle, the Ashura Sword Principle, and the Destruction Sword Principle were combined into one, forming the most destructive sword formation. The Sword Will and Sword Qi moved at will. He was surrounded by a real slaughterhouse. The demonic beasts that escaped from Ling Jin, Ye Wenjun, Ye Wuhen, and the others were all buried here. The Ashura Hell was nothing more than this.
After half an hour, in such a vast beast tide, not a single demonic beast managed to break through the blockade of the seven people. With this battle, the seven people were enough to be recorded in the history of the Sky Sword Continent.
The soldiers and cultivators of the Nine Dragons Dynasty who were protected by the seven people all felt a sense of admiration. Their eyes were blazing. This was how a real man should be!
Xia Zhengwen, the Lord of South, was even more shocked. He couldn't help but say, "This is the demeanor of a real top-notch expert! With the help of such experts, why do we have to worry that the beast tide won't retreat? "
Half an hour was not long, but it was not short either. But to resist the beast tide for half an hour, it was hard for outsiders to understand the difficulty.
If the demonic beasts were just ordinary demonic beasts, not to mention half an hour, even if the time was doubled, it would still be a piece of cake for Lu Xuan and the others. The difficulty was that there were countless demonic beasts at the Demon Royal Realm in this beast tide.
If there was a Demon Royal charging into the formation, they would need several times the strength to resist it. Ling Jin and Ye Wenjun had already changed their strategy. They no longer went against the ordinary demonic beasts. Instead, they focused on the powerful demonic beasts. However, Ye Wuhen and the others, who were responsible for resisting the beast tide, and Lu Xuan, who was blocking the escaped demonic beasts, had already consumed a lot of their strength.
Although countless demonic beasts had fallen, the beast tide was too large. Even if they exhausted all their strength, they might not be able to kill all the demonic beasts. However, their goal was not to resist the beast tide. Saul, who was even more difficult to deal with, was hiding in the back.
Lu Xuan activated the Melody of Ten Thousand Swords again. After killing nearly a hundred demonic beasts of different strengths, he took a deep breath and shouted, "Get into formation!"
In an instant, be it Ling Jin and Ye Wenjun, who were dealing with the Demon Emperor, or Ye Wuhen and the others, who were blocking the beast tide with a net, all retreated and gathered around Lu Xuan. Judging from their movements, it was obvious that they still had a lot of strength to spare.
"Give me a hand and completely destroy the beast tide," Lu Xuan said in a deep voice.
Light flashed on the Masked Dust Sword. An aura of the way of the sword that could resonate with the world radiated from Lu Xuan's body without restraint. Even the ferocious monster swarm could not help but slow down a little in the face of such heavenly might.
