There were at least several hundred of them. It was a majestic sight to behold.
Finally, Su Yu discovered a group of demonic beasts on the horizon of the valley. Some of them were birds, while others were beasts on the ground. They were like a flood that covered the horizon.
There were at least ten thousand of them!
"Beast … Beast Tide …" Situ Yan's body shivered as she stammered.
Yuan Yingying's beautiful eyes also shrunk to the size of a needle. Her small hands were trembling, revealing the fear in her heart.
The Beast Tide wasn't unfamiliar to them, as it was described in books as a calamity.
In Jiuzhou's history, there were countless records of great cities and factions being destroyed in a single night because of the Beast Tide.
The Fairy Confining Forest was the origin of the Beast Tide.
Almost ninety percent of the Beast Tide came from the Fairy Confining Forest.
The Beast Tide was terrifying because no matter how strong an expert was, he wouldn't be a match for an army of countless beasts. Once he was engulfed by the Beast Tide, he wouldn't even have a corpse left behind.
There was only one way to save him from the Beast Tide.
Escape! Escape at all costs!
Su Yu's expression became grave. Even a Divine Master would flee when facing such a great Beast Tide.
"Let's leave quickly." Su Yu grabbed one of them by the waist, then turned around and fled.
In the twinkling of an eye, he had already traversed several thousand miles. However, when he looked behind him, he saw that the Beast Tide wasn't getting further away. Instead, it was getting closer.
"Ah!"
Miserable screams echoed from behind him.
Those who were flying in the sky were being chased by swift birds, which tore them apart and devoured them one by one.
As for those who were running on the ground, they weren't able to escape from the powerful beasts.
After all, those who were at the forefront of the Beast Tide were all beasts with great speed and movement techniques.
"Ah! I will risk my life against you!" A Level Three Fairy Realm genius, upon realizing that he couldn't escape, decided to turn around and face them head-on.
He took out a sword with each of his hands and imbued it with his Vital Energy.
The demonic beasts that were charging at him were all cut down, leaving behind a bloody path.
However, the demonic beasts beside him were still charging forward crazily.
After a short while, his body was engulfed by the Beast Tide.
Following that, a blood-curdling scream came to an abrupt end.
People's screams echoed one after another, as they were all killed by the Beast Tide.
Just a moment ago, there were more than a hundred people, but now there were only forty left. Moreover, they were being devoured by the beast tide at an extremely fast speed.
As for Su Yu, he was gradually left behind. It was already extremely difficult for him to travel alone, let alone with two other people.
"Brother Su, put me down. I'll escape by myself." Yuan Yingying bit her lip. "Take Situ Yan with you. That way, you'll still have a chance."
Situ Yan's pretty face turned pale. She clenched her teeth and said, "Brother Su, put me down. The Beast Tide was unexpected. My mother won't blame you if I die in the Beast Tide."
At such a critical moment, they all knew that they had implicated Su Yu.
Su Yu's expression became gloomy, and he was just about to wait and see. After all, the Red Blood Palace's people must have detected the appearance of a terrifying Beast Tide, and those Divine Master experts wouldn't just sit by and watch as their clansmen were annihilated.
Soon, he would make his move and defeat the beast tide.
Right at this moment, a sharp cry suddenly tore through the sky.
The human geniuses who were fleeing for their lives shuddered violently as the true qi within their bodies froze.
Those who were running on the ground stumbled and fell to the ground. Then, they were drowned by the beast tide army and trampled to death.
Those who were flying in the sky were even more unlucky. Having lost their zhenqi, they plummeted from the sky and were either devoured by the flying beasts or smashed into meat paste on the spot.
In the blink of an eye, most of the geniuses had died a violent death. A small number of geniuses had survived, but their true energy had been frozen, so they couldn't run fast at all. One by one, they died.
Su Yu's Vital Energy was also frozen, and he couldn't even use his magical treasures.
Fortunately, Su Yu was still flying at a low altitude, so he carried the two young girls and rolled on the ground. Then, he continued to flee unscathed.
However, without the support of their True Qi, they were like ants, unable to run fast.
A great crisis suddenly descended.
Su Yu's heart sank as he examined his internal energy channel.
It was not that his zhenqi had solidified, but that his dantian had solidified, causing his zhenqi to be unable to circulate.
In Su Yu's External Dantian, the lake, which was the size of an acre, was also frozen.
However, what made him overjoyed was that his inner Dantian was still intact.
Without hesitation, Su Yu activated his inner Dantian and activated the vital energy in his body.
Then, he took out a pair of white wings with a flip of his palm and dripped a drop of blood on them.
The wings became indistinct, turning into a phantom and fusing into Su Yu's body.
Shortly after, the muscles on Su Yu's back wriggled, and a pair of snow-white wings grew out of thin air.
As the wings flapped, a strong wind blew, and the beast tide behind them was blown back a little. Just after that, Su Yu and the two of them disappeared without a trace, as if they had teleported.
An angry roar echoed from the depths of the beast tide. The departure of Su Yu and the two of them had infuriated the demonic beast, which had frozen all of its genius Vital Energy.
A blood-red remnant shadow dashed out of the beast tide and chased after Su Yu.
The beast tide behind them became even more frenzied, and they all rushed out of the valley.
A million miles away.
Three people appeared out of thin air.
They were Situ Yan and Su Yu, who were still in a state of shock.
Situ Yan stared at the giant wings on Su Yu's back, and her eyes flickered with excitement. "The Blue Water Nine Heaven Wings! Brother Su, you still have such a priceless treasure! "
Her big eyes were filled with curiosity, and she extended her hand to touch it. "My mother wanted to find one for me, but it was too rare, and it was not sold in the market.
Apart from the Situ family, only the Shangguan family has one. I didn't expect that you would also have one. "
Yuan Yingying snorted and said, "What's so special about it? You can't even imagine how amazing Brother Su is!"
Situ Yan glared at her and said, "Big-breasted woman, why are you speaking as if Brother Su is someone important to you?"
"Ah! Who are you calling a big-breasted woman? You flat-chested woman! "Yuan Yingying glared at her and bared her fangs.
Situ Yan was immediately irritated. "How dare you call me flat-chested? I will bite you to death, you big-breasted woman!"
"Come on! Come on! I will poke you to death!" Yuan Yingying wasn't willing to show weakness.
The two girls, one on Su Yu's left and the other on his right, started wrestling with each other.
Su Yu couldn't help but ask, "Sirs, can you get off my body before you start quarreling?"
They were still in Su Yu's embrace.
Their faces became flushed, and they both stopped fighting.
Su Yu looked back at the valley and said, "The beast tide won't come out of nowhere. There must be a reason behind it. Let's retreat for now and wait for the beast tide to disperse before we come back to hunt demonic beasts."
—
Just as Su Yu expected, after half a day, the Young Palace Mistress Kong Chan led the outer palace's emissaries to the Hundred Beasts Valley.
Under the deterrence of a dozen Divine Masters, the Beast Tide, which had come out in full force, was forced back into the depths of the valley.
In the inner part of the valley.
Palace Mistress Kong Chan and the emissaries were in a cave, which had a powerful demonic energy lingering in it.
There was a large number of soft and comfortable beast skins in the depths of the cave.
There was a broken egg at the center of the beast skins, which emitted a fishy smell.
"Palace Mistress, this is the egg of the Level Six Fairy Realm Beast King, the Devilish Eye Scarlet Marten. It laid an egg," Elder Li said as he waved his sleeves, which gave rise to a gentle breeze and flipped the egg over.
The other side of the egg cracked open, and the yolk flowed out.
"The egg is broken!" Elder Li's expression became gloomy. "Every time the Devilish Eye Scarlet Marten lays an egg, there are always two eggs. One of them is broken, while the other one is missing. It seems like someone intruded into the cave and stole the egg.
Then, he purposely broke one of the eggs to infuriate the Devilish Eye Scarlet Marten, which then drove a large number of demonic beasts to attack the challengers outside.
This beast tide wasn't a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster.
None of the families' disciples who entered the Hundred Beasts Valley were spared.
"Some families are willing to resort to any means possible to get the first place in the exam, and they even came up with such a vicious scheme," Elder Li said in a deep voice.
It was obvious that this was a scheme of a sinister family, which had killed almost half of the challengers.
The number of casualties in this exam would probably set a new record.
Palace Mistress Kong Chan was silent for a moment. "Let's go. Since the other party planned this, they surely wouldn't leave any traces behind. We just need to keep an eye on the Devilish Eye Scarlet Marten's egg, and we'll be able to find the mastermind behind this.
That beast egg is quite valuable, and I believe that the mastermind behind this won't keep it for long. "
Since they dared to tamper with the Red Blood Palace's exam, they must have realized that there was no reason for them to let it go.
Elder Li hesitated for a moment before asking, "What if we find out that it was done by a certain family?"
Palace Mistress Kong Chan replied without hesitation, "We will obviously exterminate a whole family, as it won't be difficult for us to support a new family."
It was really difficult to believe that such cruel words as exterminating a whole family would come from the amiable-looking Palace Mistress Kong Chan.
!
After the beast tide, the number of challengers had decreased greatly, and a large number of demonic beasts had also scattered in the forest.
Su Yu took the two women with him as he ran through the forest, looking for a suitable demonic beast to kill.
One of them had relied on her soul power, while the other had relied on the formation's power to kill demonic beasts, which were at a higher level than them. They had already reached the qualification requirements, and now, they were just trying to accumulate points so that they could get a good ranking.
At noon the next day.
Su Yu and the others were chasing after a Snow Fox, which had a strange speed. It was a Level Four Fairy.
According to the rules, they would get 100 points for killing it, which was exactly what Su Yu wanted.
When Su Yu saw that the Snow Fox was about to run into the bushes, he waved his hand. Four spheres of similar size appeared above the Snow Fox's head, then shot out four light beams that trapped the Snow Fox within them.
The Snow Fox bared its teeth ferociously, then used its claw to tear apart the light barrier.
When it was about to escape, Su Yu descended from the sky and thrust his right fist at it.
Su Yu's fist, which was powered by his full power, was as powerful as a Level Five Fairy's strike.
The Snow Fox's head was crushed on the spot, and it died in an instant.
Su Yu curled his finger and threw its corpse into his spatial ring.
Situ Yan and Yuan Yingying were dumbfounded, and their eyes widened in shock.
A Level Four Fairy Snow Fox had been killed in such a short time! His power was at least at the Level Five Fairy level!
"Wow! Brother Su, you are so amazing!" Situ Yan's eyes were filled with admiration. She had seen many talented experts in the Situ family, but it was the first time she had seen someone as monstrous as Su Yu.
She couldn't help but revere him.
Su Yu smiled and was just about to reply modestly when his ears suddenly twitched. "There is a commotion ahead of us. Let's go over and take a look."
After the time it would take to brew half a cup of tea, they arrived at the foot of a mountain.
All of the Shangguan family's geniuses were gathered here. They hadn't rushed to the Hundred Beasts Valley immediately, so they had managed to avoid the Beast Tide.
However, they were in a precarious situation.
They were now surrounded by a group of Flame Leopards.
Flame Leopards were Level Three Fairy Demonic Beasts, and they liked to live in groups. Nine Flame Leopards had forced the eighteen of them into a cave, which prevented them from flying away, so they could only defend themselves.
Shangguan Fei and Zhang Fan were at the front, and they were trying their best to defeat the Flame Leopards, which were trying to charge into the cave.
Zhang Fan was still fine, as his cultivation was at the Level Four Fairy Realm, so he could manage to deal with them. However, Shangguan Fei was in a difficult situation, as there were many burns on his body and he had consumed a lot of Vital Energy.
"Brother Zhang, how much longer can you last?" Shangguan Fei's expression became gloomy.
Zhang Fan's expression became gloomy as he shouted, "How would I know? Your Shangguan family thinks that they are clever, and you drove away all the powerful people, leaving behind a group of incompetent disciples who can't fight well in the face of danger.
Their fighting prowess has become a burden. Otherwise, we wouldn't be in such a passive situation. "
In the past, Zhang Fan wouldn't have dared to treat Shangguan Fei in such a manner.
However, now that they couldn't escape this calamity, he vented all of his resentment.
Shangguan Fei was quite bitter, and he said angrily, "It's all the Shao family's fault! If they hadn't launched a sneak attack and killed the Level Five Fairy Realm genius who was protecting us, a trifling group of Flame Leopards wouldn't have dared to hunt us down! "
The Shangguan family had also managed to invite a Level Five Fairy Realm genius.
He was from the Soul Seizing Palace, and he was ranked third among the outer sanctum's disciples. So, even if he didn't go through the external test, he could still enter the Red Blood Palace through the internal test.
。
They had paid a great price to invite this famous outer sanctum's disciple, and they had assumed that they would be safe. But, who would have expected that the Shao family would launch a sneak attack and kill him with an arrow?
After losing their protection, they ended up being surrounded by a group of demonic beasts.
What I regret the most is that I didn't leave with Su Yuxian. Zhang Fan was filled with regret. My power is greater than his, and I obviously have a brighter future than him.
Dying in the Immortal Confining Forest, hehe, fate really makes fools of people. "
Zhang Fan had always had a good impression of himself, and even now, he still looked down on Su Yu.
All of a sudden, the nine Flame Leopards outside stopped their attacks and retreated, while flames started brewing in their mouths.
Zhang Fan's expression changed drastically. "Awful! They are planning to burn us alive in the cave!"
They could still use their Vital Energy to block the flames for a short time, but if they continued for a long time, they wouldn't be able to endure it.
"Will I, Shangguan Fei, really die here?" Shangguan Fei's face was filled with grief. He recalled how he had been in high spirits before he had left, and how he had vowed to enter the Red Blood Palace. But now, he had been reduced to being roasted alive by a group of beasts!
Bang! Bang!
At this moment, a commotion broke out outside the cave.
Three Flame Leopards were bombarded by a group of afterimages, and they were instantly destroyed.
At the same time, a man wearing a bamboo hat appeared. He was holding two Flame Leopards in his left and right hands, and as he clenched his fist, the Flame Leopards' necks were snapped.
In the blink of an eye, five Flame Leopards had been killed!
Such a ruthless method shocked Zhang Fan and the others, causing their expressions to change drastically.
Half of the Flame Leopards, which had almost killed them, had been killed in the blink of an eye?
When the rest of the Flame Leopards saw that the situation was far from good, they fled in fear.
"Humph!" The man in the bamboo hat snorted coldly. He didn't make any moves, but he looked at the four fleeing Flame Leopards.
Plop!
Zhang Fan and the others were horrified to see that the fleeing Flame Leopards suddenly went limp, and they fell to the ground with a miserable howl before they died.
"Brother Su, here." One of them had a cute face and an unusually mature body, while the other had a clever face and a slender body. They each held two Flame Leopards, and they passed them to Su Yu in a fawning manner.
Su Yu opened the ring and collected all the Flame Leopards on the ground.
One Level Three Fairy Realm beast was worth 40 points, so nine of them would be worth 360 points.
"Situ Yan?" Shangguan Fei's pupils contracted. "So, this man in the bamboo hat is the freak who defeated the Shao family?"
Reverence appeared in Zhang Fan's eyes as he walked out of the cave and bowed to Su Yu. "Brother, thank you for saving our lives."
Shangguan Fei also quickly walked out of the cave. He was respectful and reverent.
Su Yu took a look at them, then looked at the Shangguan family's disciples, who were walking out of the cave one after another. He then said expressionlessly, "I only saved you because of Shangguan Yunque. That's all."
Big brother? Shangguan Fei was startled, but he soon felt relieved. My big brother has many friends, and this freak, who doesn't show his face, must be an outer sanctum disciple of one of the eighteen factions.
"Let's go." Su Yu turned around and left.
Shangguan Fei asked, "Wait! May I ask your name?"
Su Yu curled up the corners of his mouth. He's just a person who was driven away by the Shangguan family.
"You don't want to know." Su Yu waved his hand without turning his head.
However, Shangguan Fei hurriedly said, "Brother, we ran into the Situ family's people a moment ago, and they requested us to meet them as soon as possible. Their situation isn't good."
Situ Yan's expression became tense. "What's bad? Explain it clearly."
Shangguan Fei replied solemnly, "They are being chased by the Shao family. We want to help them, but we can't even protect ourselves."
What? The Shao family attacked them?
Situ Yan clenched her fists tightly. She was quite anxious as she asked, "Where are they? When did this happen? "
Shangguan Fei replied, "It's already been two hours. If we're lucky, the Shao family probably hasn't caught up to us yet. The Shao family has announced that you were killed in the Beast Tide, and the Situ family's people have lost their will to fight. So, it's best for you to meet them as soon as possible. Otherwise, the situation won't be good for you. "
Eh? Su Yu furrowed his brows slightly. The Shao family's people didn't go to the Hundred Beasts Valley, so how could they know that they were killed there?
There must be something fishy about this. Could it be that the Beast Tide was caused by the Shao family?
The scene of him entering the forest and running into Shao Li appeared in his mind. She had even told him that he wouldn't be able to leave alive.
Now, it seemed like the Shao family was the most suspicious one.
An ice-cold glint flickered in the depths of his eyes. The Beast Tide that they had caused had almost killed Su Yu.
The Blue Water Nine Heavens Wings, which were worth a hundred thousand crystals, had been wasted because of it.
He had already warned the Shao family time and time again not to provoke them.
It seemed like the warning on the stone pillar wasn't enough, so he could only use blood to pay them back.
"Yan'er, Yingying, let's go." Su Yu's expression was calm, while he spoke in a deep voice.
Situ Yan spoke anxiously, "Brother Su, you must save them. I'm begging you."
Yingying also sympathized with her. Although she had always bickered with Situ Yan, she didn't dislike this young miss, who didn't put on airs. She then said, "Brother Su, please help her …"
Su Yu held their waists with one hand, while a cold smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. "Is saving them enough? Since the Shao family's people think that their fists are the greatest and that they can rule over everything, then I will teach them what despair is! "
Yuan Yingying's gaze flickered. "Brother Su, what do you want?"
