Although most of the people present were bewildered by the patriarch's words, they quickly dispersed. Only Han Xin remained in the same place.
Patriarch Han Ye turned to Liu Ming and said, "It's not convenient to talk here. Please move to the main hall."
Liu Ming nodded.
The four soon arrived at the main hall of the Sunset Tribe and sat down.
"What is the important matter that Patriarch Han Ye mentioned just now?" Liu Ming didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.
"Well, since Liu is a straightforward man, I won't beat around the bush. Both of you are extraordinary people. Dao Friend Liu is strong, far above me, and Fairy Le is well-versed in the art of totemic formations. Therefore, I would like to invite the two of you to help our tribe survive this beast tide. Of course, I won't let you work for nothing. I will give you a satisfactory reward. What do you think? "Patriarch Han Ye cupped his hands and said solemnly.
"Patriarch Han Ye, why don't you tell us what you can give us first? It won't be too late for me to make a decision." Liu Ming's eyes flashed.
"The elder I mentioned before has returned to the tribe. I have learned from him the way to return to the Middle Sky Continent from the Wasteland Continent. What do you think of this condition?" Patriarch Han Ye revealed a smile on his face and revealed a piece of news that moved Liu Ming.
"Do you mean it?" Liu Ming stared at Han Ye and said word by word.
"Of course, I am willing to swear on the tribe's totem." Being stared at by Liu Ming, Patriarch Han Ye suddenly felt a tremor in his heart. He forced himself to calm down and said seriously.
Hearing this, Liu Ming nodded slightly.
"In addition to telling you the way to return to the Middle Sky Continent, if you can repel this Beast Tide, I can also give you two Demonic Eyeballs. This is a secret treasure of our Sunset Tribe. Wearing it can conceal your human aura. You won't have to worry about being recognized when you travel the Wasteland Continent in the future. You should know that there are many races on the Wildlands that are hostile to outsiders, "Han Ye said solemnly.
When Han Xin heard this, he was shocked. His mouth opened, but he didn't say anything in the end.
"Alright, since this deal is mutually beneficial, we agree." Liu Ming only pondered for a moment before agreeing with a chuckle.
"Fellow Daoist Liu is really straightforward. We have a deal then." Han Ye was overjoyed.
After discussing some specific matters, Liu Ming and Qian Ruping left.
"Father, let's not talk about the way to return to the Middle Sky Continent. Are you really going to give them two demonic eyeball beads?" Han Xin couldn't help but say after Liu Ming left.
"I have my own plans for this matter. You don't have to ask too much. By the way, how's the thing I asked you to do? "Han Ye asked calmly.
"I've already checked. Before those beastkins attacked, most of the spies arranged outside the valley were killed. Looking at the wounds, it should be Jin Dan's feather snake that killed them. That's why these clansmen didn't have time to report." Han Xin was silent for a while and said so.
"These beastkins are becoming more and more intelligent. They should be here to test our strength this time. It won't be long before they attack directly." Han Ye said coldly.
Han Xin's face was a little ugly, but he didn't speak.
"Pass down the order. From today on, arrange people to guard the valley 24 hours a day. If there is any abnormality, report it immediately." Han Ye thought for a while and ordered sternly.
"Yes!" Han Xin agreed, turned around and walked out.
Han Ye sat on the main seat, his eyes flickered. No one knew what he was thinking.
After Liu Ming and Qian Ruping returned to their residence, Qian Ruping had lost a lot of spiritual power because of the previous adjustment of the totem array, so she went back to her room early to rest.
Liu Ming stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the direction of the entrance of the valley with a faint smile on his face.
A few days later, the sky was just bright.
With a few "rumbling" sounds of the earth shaking faintly coming from a distance, then a loud warning horn sounded through the entire valley in an instant. The entire Sunset Tribe instantly boiled up.
In the open space in front of the high platform in the center of the valley, more than a dozen Crystallization Period elders rushed from all over the valley almost at the same time. The patriarch Han Ye had already appeared here when the horn sounded.
Beside him stood Han Xin.
Under the orders of the patriarch, Han Ye, except for Han Xin, who stayed on the altar, the rest of the people turned into streaks of light and flew towards the battle formations formed by their clansmen and the city wall in front of them.
At this moment, a black light flashed from the depths of the valley and landed beside Han Ye. The black light faded, revealing the figures of Liu Ming and Qian Ruping.
Seeing this, Han Ye's heart was at ease. He looked a little relieved, then he cupped his fist toward Liu Ming.
After Liu Ming nodded to him, he stood aside with Qian Ruping.
Although Qian Ruping had experienced the battle with Sea Emperor Palace, she was also infected by the tense atmosphere of the entire Sunset Tribe at the moment, and she became nervous.
Liu Ming was expressionless with his hands behind his back, looking out of the valley.
Dozens of miles away from the Sunset Tribe, from a distance, he could see a vast horde of beasts gathering from several directions, rushing toward the Sunset Tribe. There were tens of thousands of them. Smoke and dust billowed, and the roar of the beasts came one after another.
But Liu Ming had experienced large-scale battles such as the Evil Ghost Way and the stemborer invasion, so it was naturally difficult for him to be moved by everything in front of him.
At this moment, a loud muffled sound came from the giant high platform in front of him.
The purple pillar of light rising from the high platform in the middle of the valley suddenly became several times thicker, causing the purple light curtain that shrouded the entire valley to ripple like water.
The next moment, five giant beasts phantoms emerged in the purple light curtain, and began to wander around. These beasts looked like horses and rhinoceroses, and they looked lifelike. They were exactly the same as the five statues of the beasts that were crouching on the top of the stone pillars in the castle.
"Such a clear phantom of the God of War! Liu, I didn't expect Miss Qian's attainments in formations to be so profound. Such a level of totem scene has not appeared in the tribe for more than a thousand years! "Han Ye looked at the light curtain in mid-air, seemingly excited and happy, but also somewhat sighed.
"Patriarch Han is overpraising me. If it wasn't for Elder Bai Wen explaining the various Demon Clan Runes, how could this little girl succeed?" Qian Ruping smiled modestly.
Although Liu Ming looked as usual on the surface, in his heart, he greatly overestimated Qian Ruping's attainments in formations.
After all, it was the first time she came into contact with the secret totem technique, but she could already have such a level of comprehension. It could no longer be described as a genius.
While they were talking, at this time, outside the valley, there was already dust flying. The fastest thousands of beasts had already appeared less than two hundred feet outside the valley.
These beasts looked like hyenas, each of them about ten feet tall, covered with a layer of gray scales, and their bodies were agile as if they were flying. Their four hooves lightly stepped on the ground, and they could easily leap a distance of tens of feet.
A burst of strange howling sounds sounded.
After the chest of these hyena-like beasts contracted for a while, they opened their mouths and spat out a gray wind blade the size of a door, turning into a dazzling gray streamer in the air, flying towards the direction of the Sunset Tribe. In an instant, a series of gray light marks exploded on the purple light curtain outside the city wall.
Immediately after these hyena-scaled beasts, more than a thousand rhinoceros-like beasts rushed out. These beasts were quite huge, reaching the size of eighty meters. Their rough skin seemed to be made of iron, and the dark horns on their heads were sharp. As the beasts lowered their heads, they slammed into the protective array.
At this time, the sky was suddenly filled with dense green figures. They were the thousands of green flying snakes that had appeared before. They were twisting their bodies that were several tens of feet long, and they opened their mouths to spray out clouds of pungent dark green liquid that fell like raindrops on the purple light curtain above the valley.
Except for a few of these beasts that had the strength of the Condensation Period, most of them only had the strength of the Spirit Apostle Period, but there were too many of them, so their attack momentum was extremely astonishing. Although the continuous blasting sound couldn't shake the entire magnificent purple light curtain, it made the Beastkin Clan cultivators below shocked.
After a short period of shock, with the shouts of those Crystallization Period elders, the Sunset Tribe's counterattack also quickly began.
The sound of breaking air rang out!
Hundreds of huge crossbows on the city wall exuded a blue cold light at the same time. Under the control of the Beastkin Clan cultivators who operated the crossbow, a large blue cold light with the thickness of a bowl shot toward the blue flying snake in midair and the beast horde below like a gust of wind and rain.
These crossbows were incomparably huge, and with the help of some kind of wind attribute beast totem engraved on the surface, their speed was extremely fast!
Screams sounded everywhere!
The rhinoceros-like beasts and hyena-scaled beasts near the city wall suffered heavy casualties where the green crossbow bolts passed through.
However, because these rhinoceros-like beasts were huge and had high defense, it often took several crossbow bolts to kill them. As for the hyena-scaled beasts, they were more difficult to hit due to their agile bodies, but if they were hit, most of them would die with one arrow.
The green flying snakes in the air had a relatively large space to maneuver, so the crossbow bolts had little effect. However, under the attacks of the Beastkin Clan cultivators below, the snake corpses still fell like raindrops.
For a time, the sound of shouting and fighting could be heard incessantly. All kinds of beams of light and crossbow bolts intertwined, causing the entire Sunset Tribe to glow.
Not long after, outside the city wall of the Sunset Tribe, the corpses of the beasts piled up like a small hill.
However, there were simply too many demon beasts. The densely packed Hyena Scale Beasts, wolf-type demon beasts, green flying snakes, and giant rhinoceros-like beasts continued to swarm forward, fearlessly attacking the city walls in waves.
Fortunately, under the solid protection of the purple light curtain that enveloped the entire tribe, the Beastkin Clan cultivators of the Sunset Tribe defended against more than a dozen waves of attacks, and still did not fall into a disadvantageous position. Moreover, their morale was high, faintly showing signs of becoming braver as the battle went on.
On the contrary, a large number of beasts were blocked. Without the slightest bit of protection, in less than half a day, no less than ten thousand beasts had died.
Based on this trend, if nothing unexpected happened to the protective light curtain, the Beastkin Clan cultivators of the Sunset Tribe could easily defend for another day and night.
