Beast Tide Chaos
Thousand Peak City was the imperial city of the Purple Firmament Dynasty.
Just like its name, the city was shrouded in mountains. The terrain was complicated and steep, making it a natural place that was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
But at this moment, the impregnable Thousand Peak City was surrounded by an endless tide of Spirit Beasts. As far as the eye could see, every mountain range and peak was filled with Spirit Beasts that were madly rushing towards Thousand Peak City.
The number of these spirit beasts was unknown. They were like an ocean, constantly spreading in all directions. Everywhere they passed, the dense forests were trampled, the hills were flattened, and everything was reduced to a mess and debris.
Furthermore, the place where the beast tide was wreaking havoc was filled with the smell of blood. It was so thick that it was nauseating. The smell lingered in the void as if it was real, making the space extremely eerie.
The speed of the beast tide was too fast, and the scale was terrifying. When the crowd reacted, the beast hooves had already crushed the city gate and began to rampage and kill.
The Purple Firmament Dynasty had a total of twenty-three cities. In just half a day, ten cities were breached, and although the remaining thirteen cities were bitterly holding on, they were also in a state of decline.
As the imperial city of the Purple Firmament Dynasty, a large number of refugees had already gathered in Thousand Peak City. They built layers of defense, armed with arrows and swords, just to defend this last piece of pure land.
Rumble!
Finally, the beast tide surged.
The instant the tens of thousands of Spirit Beasts charged, the entire ground trembled. The berserk aura that surged over easily crushed the mental defenses of the cultivators. Before they could react, the claws of the Spirit Beasts had already imprinted themselves in their eyes.
"Attack, stop these beasts!" An Earth Spirit expert roared angrily. As his voice fell, countless warriors made their moves. Spiritual light filled the sky as all kinds of attacks were released without holding back. However, the moment they entered the beast tide, they only caused a small ripple.
Just as the crowd was about to reorganize their attack, angry roars erupted from the beast tide. The spirit beasts rammed into the city wall like crazy, one after another. Every time they rammed into the city wall, the thick and heavy city wall would tremble.
"As long as we can stop this beast tide, Thousand Peak City will exist forever!" In the crowd, there were people shouting loudly. Unfortunately, as soon as they finished speaking, cold beasts swooped down from the sky and tore their chests apart with their sharp claws.
Then, under the horrified gazes of the crowd, those corpses were hung high in the air. Blood splattered everywhere, and pieces of internal organs fell to the ground, staining the city wall. It was impossible to tell if they belonged to humans or spirit beasts.
There were tens of thousands of spirit beasts on the ground, and their momentum could shake the heavens and the earth. However, compared to them, the spirit beasts in the air were more threatening. Every time they swooped down, they would take away countless lives.
Under such an onslaught, the cultivators in Thousand Peak City fell into complete chaos.
Long cracks gradually appeared on the tall and thick city wall. Outside the city gate, corpses were piled up like mountains. Many spirit beasts were chewing on the corpses. It was a horrifying scene.
"It looks like our last hope won't be able to hold on …" Within Thousand Peak City, someone cried out sorrowfully.
As these words rang out, those who still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts were filled with despair. On the wide streets, there were densely packed figures lying on the ground. When they raised their heads, their faces were pale.
Children were crying, but no one cared. A gust of wind blew past, carrying with it a pungent smell of blood. It swept across the crowd, and there were howls of despair and grief everywhere. It was as if they were in a prison of death.
"Attack!"
At this moment, a resounding roar rang out.
Everyone looked towards the source of the sound and saw that in front of them, in the sky that was covered by dark clouds, there was suddenly a flash of light. That light was actually sword light, and it converged into a sea of swords that fell from the sky.
Xiu xiu xiu …
The sea of swords fell into the Beast Tide and bloomed without reservation. In an instant, the huge Beast Tide was forcefully torn apart. The terrifying attack suddenly stopped, as if they were shocked by this strange phenomenon.
After that, thousands of sword lights bloomed in the sky. The crowd could clearly see that in the place where the sword lights were wreaking havoc, many white-clothed figures appeared. They stepped on the void and held long swords in their hands as they rushed over at high speed.
"That's … Wanjian Pavilion's disciples!" In Thousand Peak City, a voice suddenly rang out, causing the already despairing crowd to widen their eyes and look over in disbelief.
In their eyes, although Wanjian Pavilion ruled the Eighteen Dynasties and was tyrannical in strength, it was only an exploiter to the Eighteen Dynasties. It was meaningless.
Now that the Eighteen Dynasties had been enveloped by the Beast Tide, Wanjian Pavilion should have retreated and guarded the Ten Thousand Swords Mountain alone. Why would it care about their lives?
"Form the sword array!"
At this moment, another angry roar rang out.
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, the white figures slowly descended into the sky above Thousand Peak City. They raised their long swords and the sword light soared into the sky, turning into thousands of array runes that intertwined and condensed into a vast sword array that completely enveloped Thousand Peak City.
At the same time, in the sky covered by the sword array, faint lights appeared. Those faint lights were just sword light. Every time a flying Spiritual Beast approached, it would be reaped by the sword light, unable to get any closer.
"Where is the Purple Firmament King!" In the center of the sword array, a young man in heavy armor walked out. Beside the young man was an old man covered in a black robe, revealing only his shriveled face.
They were naturally Chu Hu and Yan Du.
"Who are you?" Faced with Chu Hu's question, a fat man quickly walked out from the crowd. A pair of triangular eyes sized them up, and his expression was a little frivolous.
The aura emitted from his body wasn't weak. He had reached the Third Level of the Heavenly Spirit Realm. Around him, there was a team of Earthly Spirit Realm cultivators. They could be considered elites.
"My name is Chu Hu, one of the ten great elders of Wanjian Pavilion. Now, as an elder of Wanjian Pavilion, I have officially taken over the authority of the Purple Firmament Dynasty. Quickly summon the Purple Firmament King here." Chu Hu carefully observed the surroundings. Just as he finished speaking, the faces of the surrounding people changed, and all of them had a trace of suspicion.
This strange atmosphere made Chu Hu a little confused. Just as he was about to continue speaking, the fat man in front of him sneered, "When the Beast Tide erupted, the Purple Firmament King was already dead. Even his corpse couldn't be found. Now, the Purple Firmament Dynasty is ruled by me alone. The Wanjian Pavilion has just arrived, and you want to seize my authority? Aren't you dreaming?"
"Then, according to you, you are not willing to hand over the authority?" Chu Hu also sneered and asked in return.
The fat man smiled but didn't speak. His eyes landed on Chu Hu's Cloudy Dream Mystic Heavenly Armor, and a strong sense of greed appeared in his eyes. He laughed sinisterly, "To hand it over or not, it's up to me. It all depends on how you please me."
As he spoke, the aura of the Third Level of the Heavenly Spirit Realm exploded from his body. His hands formed into claws, and one from the front and one from the back, he grabbed towards Chu Hu's head and chest.
