Sea Breeze Fort was in a critical situation and could not be delayed. The group did not dare to delay and quickly divided up the work and took their positions.
Among them, Tsing Hui followed Dan Taiying. Together with Dan Taiyu, the Eagle Wing, and 130 True Energy Realm and Awakening Realm experts, a total of 134 people went straight to the inland of Dragon Chant River.
With Sea Breeze Fort as the center, the area within a radius of 50 to 60 kilometers had already been flooded by the monstrous waves caused by the sea beasts. It was impossible to defend, let alone fight and retreat at the same time.
Fortunately, Dragon Chant River was 100 kilometers deep, and there was a line of defense similar to a dam. In addition to defending against the torrent, it could also block the fish that escaped from Sea Breeze Fort.
However, compared to the Sea Breeze Fortress, the walls and defensive facilities of this place paled in comparison. There was only one defensive line, and there were only six Arrow Towers and a pitiful one Cannon Turret. Due to the crisis at the Sea Breeze Fortress, more than half of the garrison had been transferred to the Sea Breeze Fortress. There were less than two hundred soldiers left, and the crossbows and spirit source stones could only last for three hours of battle.
"We don't have many people, so we need to finish the battle quickly."
Dan Taiying assigned the task and looked at Dan Taiyu at the same time, "Yu'er, you have awakened the bloodline of the Winged Dragon, so you are very sensitive to the flow of water. If these sea beasts really break through our line of defense, you should follow them and see what they are up to. At that time, you can act according to your discretion."
"Yes."
Dan Taiyu replied seriously.
She had coincidentally cultivated Holy Rank True Qi. Although her True Qi was just at the initial stage, in terms of combat power, she was not weaker than those veteran True Energy Realm experts.
"Tsing Hui King, I'll leave Yu'er's safety to you."
Dan Taiying said and looked at Tsing Hui at the end.
Tsing Hui nodded slightly.
Immediately, Dan Taiying commanded the group again to build defensive fortifications. At the same time, he asked the Eagle Wing to lead the troops 30 kilometers upstream, planning to block the sea beasts layer by layer.
Time passed quickly while everyone was preparing.
Soon, half an hour had passed.
"Young Miss, they're here. The first wave of sea beasts is about to arrive."
Not long after, the voice of a True Qi Realm cultivator who was in charge of watching from the front came from afar. At the same time, the sound of thousands of horses galloping could be heard.
The Dragon Cry River was the largest river on the Dragon Whale Island, with an average width of four kilometers. Even though the dam was located in a relatively narrow area, it was still two kilometers wide. Many sea beasts rushed into the Dragon Cry River with torrential waves, causing huge waves that were dozens of meters tall to rise. If it wasn't for the fact that a lot of the water had overflowed and was diverted in other directions, these huge waves might even reach over a hundred meters.
Tantai Yin looked at the monstrous waves before looking at the dam that was only 60 meters tall. She sighed and said, "Prepare for battle!"
Immediately, whether it was true qi realm experts or ordinary soldiers, each and every one of them took up their positions with pale faces. Their faces were filled with fear as they looked towards the earth-shattering waves.
"Roar!"
Countless horrifying sea beasts were mixed in the waves, sweeping up the torrential waves and surging over.
Finally, when the sea beasts arrived, the waves they had swept over crashed into the dam for the first time. For a moment, the entire earth seemed to shake violently. Countless waves burst forth and splashed into the air, forming pillars of water that were over a hundred meters tall.
In the face of this huge wave, more than half of the 60-meter-tall dam was instantly submerged. Countless sea beasts took the opportunity to rush up the dam with seawater and river water and wreak havoc.
"Kill!"
"Everyone, it's time to serve the City Lord!"
"Behind us is the place where we grew up. If we retreat, our great home will be completely destroyed by these despicable Vicious Beasts. We can't allow that to happen!"
"Fight! Fight to the death! "
All sorts of motivational roars came from the mouths of the crowd. Facing the sea beasts that pounced forward, many ordinary soldiers instantly erupted with astonishing courage. Using all sorts of war equipment, they quickly surrounded the sea beasts.
Unfortunately …
The difference between mortals and the Awakening Realm sea beasts was too great.
Even if the sea beasts were slightly weaker than ordinary Awakening Realm cultivators, they were still not something that they could withstand.
A single attack from a Type 1 Sea Beast was enough to take the lives of a few soldiers. If it wasn't for the fact that there were many defensive facilities here, the 200 soldiers would only need 4 or 5 Type 1 Sea Beasts to wipe them out.
Tsing Hui's gaze searched through the sea beasts for a moment. In the next moment, he leaped forward. Billowing heat waves erupted from his body, causing the surrounding seawater to evaporate, forming a mist that could be seen with the naked eye. Under the mist, he was like a ray of light, directly flying past a rank two sea beast. When the sword light dissipated, the sea beast was already decapitated.
"Good!"
Dan Taiying shouted.
Only when she saw Qing Xu kill a rank two sea beast with a single slash did she truly believe what Wu Kuang said. This inland cultivator who looked even younger than her really had the battle prowess of a spirit refining realm cultivator.
However, now was not the time to watch Tsing Hui display his strength. With a shout, she immediately entered the battlefield.
Her figure flipped, and the sword light flickered.
So be it if it was just a second rank sea beast, but regular first rank sea beasts were not her opponent at all. Compared to Qing Xu who was holding back, her killing efficiency was clearly faster.
Not far from her, Dan Taiyu, who originally looked weak, was also extraordinary.
She had awakened the bloodline of the Winged Dragon and cultivated Heavy Water True Energy, which gave her the ability to control water. Therefore, before the sea beasts could reach her, she would have already used her True Energy to control the water and split it apart, causing the sea beasts to be separated from the water, greatly reducing their battle prowess. Although her efficiency in killing sea beasts was relatively slow, with the help of the two True Energy Realm experts, she was able to kill second rank sea beasts. Her efficiency in killing second rank sea beasts was 50% of Eagle Wing's when they were fighting in the Sea Breeze Stronghold.
With Tsing Hui, Dan Taiying, Dan Taiyu, and the others going all out to kill the sea beasts, this wave of over a hundred sea beasts was quickly killed by them.
Seeing that the sea beasts were stopped, Dan Taiying also let out a sigh of relief.
However, this sigh of relief did not last for long. Immediately, a Zhen Qi realm cultivator rushed over and reported, "Big Miss, the city lord has sent news. The sea beasts that opened the gate at Long Yin River are too crazy. There are a total of twenty-four rank three sea beasts, and three thousand rank one and two sea beasts rushing into Long Yin River!"
"What? Twenty-four rank three sea beasts, and three thousand rank one and two sea beasts!? "
Hearing this number, Dan Taiying's face suddenly became ugly.
The True Energy Realm experts behind her could not help but reveal looks of horror in their eyes.
More than three thousand rank one and two sea beasts ah.
If these sea beasts were blocked by the tall walls of Sea Breeze Fort, it would be better. However, if they were allowed to enter the river … … the humans would lose their geographical advantage. If they wanted to stop the sea beasts, they would need at least a third of their numbers.
In other words, there would be eight Spirit Refining realm cultivators, and more than a thousand Zhen Qi and Awakening realm cultivators.
This was already the total strength of the entire North Sea City.
"Is there a second line of defense at Long Yin River?"
Tsing Hui's expression became serious.
Twenty-four rank three sea beasts swarmed up. Unless he used the Divine Technique and relied on the Crimson Dragon Sword, he would not have the strength to fight them head-on.
"The second line of defense is a hundred and sixty kilometers away from here. However, compared to this dam, that dam is slightly inferior."
Dan Taiying said.
"Then there's no other way. Kill as many as we can, and do our best."
Tsing Hui said slowly.
Dan Taiying was silent for a moment before finally nodding his head.
Soon, rumbling sounds could be heard once again, followed by a wave that was much larger than the previous one. Even if the current had already overflowed the river surface and dyed the surrounding wilderness into a swamp, it was still unable to subdue the terrifying wave that was more than ten meters tall, as well as the sea beasts that came with it.
"All of you … … run for your lives."
Dan Taiying looked at the sea beasts in the huge wave and said bitterly to the mortal cultivators behind him.
"Young miss … …"
"Go, the further the better."
Those Viscera Refining and Blood Transformation realm cultivators glanced at the terrifying sea beasts in the huge wave, as well as the incoming wave that was more than ten meters tall. In the end, they did not have the courage to fight against these terrifying enemies that exceeded the strength of mortals. They gritted their teeth and said, "Young miss, lords, please take care!"
Then, one by one, they rushed to the back of the dam, wanting to climb up a mountain not far from the dam.
"Get ready!"
Dan Taiying said in a low voice.
In fact, she did not need to remind them.
Thousands of powerful sea beasts swept up the terrifying wave, like an ancient beast that was constantly approaching, approaching, and approaching again!
The sea beasts had not yet arrived, but the terrifying pressure that they were emitting was already so strong that it made the dozens of North Sea City experts in the dam feel suffocated. A few of the weaker young experts who had just awakened their divine weapons were trembling as their eyes were filled with fear!
Unfortunately … …
Many sea beasts would not stop because of the fear of humans.
Finally, the terrifying wave that was swept up by the sea beasts crashed into the dam. The moment it was blocked by the dam, the earth-shattering impact erupted and splashed out a hundred-meter tall pillar of water.
Accompanied by a series of earth-shaking tremors, the dam suddenly cracked open … …
Huge cracks filled the surface of the dam, and then continued to spread and combine. Finally, the sixty-meter tall dam was completely torn apart. Two experts who happened to be in this area were hit by the waves, and they let out shrill screams as they fell into the river. In an instant, they were swarmed by dozens of sea beasts and eaten up.
"The dam has collapsed … …"
Frightened voices rang out from the chaotic crowd.
Dan Taiying watched as a large number of sea beasts tore apart the dam's defensive line, passed through the gap, swept up the gradually receding water and rushed towards the deeper parts of the Dragon Chant River.
"Damn it … … I can only pin my hopes on the final plan! Tsing Hui, you and Yu'er lead ten people and catch up with these sea beasts. Find out what they want to do in the inland! Everyone else, kill them! Block these sea beasts here for as long as you can! "
"I'll go alone."
Tsing Hui said, "The others may not be able to keep up with my speed."
"The others don't have to go, but Yu'er must go. Yu'er has awakened the bloodline of the Winged Dragon and cultivated the Saint Grade Heavy Water True Qi. She can keep up with you. In addition, she has the ability to control water and is very sensitive to water energy. With her around, it will be easier for you to find out the true purpose of these sea beasts."
After Dan Taiying finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "That's it! Everyone else, follow me! "
Tsing Hui looked at Dan Taiying. He guessed that Dan Taiying was planning to defend this place to the death. He wanted Dan Taiyu to follow him to chase after the sea beasts, so that he could take Dan Taiyu away from this place.
Shaking his head, Tsing Hui didn't explain in detail. He said to Dan Taiyu, "Let's go!"
Then, following the Dragon Chant River, they chased after the sea beasts that had rushed over the dam first.
