Top Luck: Leading the family to cultivate immortality

Chapter 273 The beast comes to the city
Yuyao City.

In a secret room in the cave where Lin Tianming was, he was sitting cross-legged and practicing with his hands in a seal.

I saw traces of spiritual energy sinking from his slender palms, passing through the meridians and finally flowing into the sea of ​​qi dantian.

Just as he was practicing quietly, three thick bells rang rapidly, and he could hear them clearly in every corner of the Demon Control City.

At this moment, a large number of monks in the city walked out of the cave and rushed towards the city wall.

When Lin Tianming heard the bell, he couldn't help but frown, and his originally calm face suddenly became serious.

It has been nearly a month since I came to the Demon City, and I have been practicing quietly during this period, as if the attacks by the monsters did not exist.

However, the calm was still broken at this moment. The sudden ringing of the bell was an early warning signal. Each sound represented the seriousness of the matter. When the three bells rang rapidly, it proved that Yuyao City was under an unprecedented threat.

"Alas...what was supposed to come has come!"

Lin Tianming couldn't help but sigh. At this time, a message entered the secret room. His consciousness scanned the contents, and then he stood up and left the secret room.

Outside the secret room, Qin Xi left the secret room one step ahead and waited for Lin Tianming to appear.

The moment she saw him, Qin Xi looked solemn and asked quickly: "Fellow Daoist Lin, is there a monster attacking Yuyan City?"

Hearing this, Lin Tianming nodded helplessly, and with his expression as if he was facing an enemy, Qin Xi's face darkened.

"Three bells rang rapidly. It should be that the army of monsters that had been silent for a long time has moved out!"

"The situation is urgent. Let's go to the city wall and have a look. By the way, we can meet up with Fellow Daoist Li and the others."

Lin Tianming said a few words, and then immediately walked away. Qin Xi followed closely behind him, and the two left the cave one after the other.

After a while, the two came to the huge square under the city wall.

Looking around, a large number of monks have gathered in the square at this time, almost all of which are Qi refining. A large number of monks are gathering in several directions not far away.

The higher city wall was also overcrowded. Thousands of foundation-building monks stood on the top of the city and looked into the distance. Each person's face was gloomy, and they communicated with the monks around them, guessing what would happen next.

In the square, Lin Tianming glanced around and quickly spotted Li Xiuyuan, with Tang Liusheng and others standing beside him.

He pulled Qin Xi and jumped onto the city wall, landing steadily next to Li Xiuyuan and others.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, you two brothers and sisters are here!"

Seeing Lin Tianming, Li Xiuyuan cupped his hands and said hello to them.

Lin Tianming and Lin Tianming also returned the salute, and then Lin Tianming asked: "Fellow Daoist Li, is a monster attack coming? What's the situation now?"

Hearing Lin Tianming's questioning, Li Xiuyuan smiled bitterly, and then said: "Fellow Daoist Lin, I don't know the specific situation. I think everyone present doesn't know."

"But don't panic, everyone. If nothing happens, my uncle will come out soon to administer justice and provide accurate information."

"As for what we are going to do next, there will be arrangements from above, we just need to wait patiently!"

Hearing this statement, Lin Tianming and others nodded.

The current situation is not something they can control at all. What should be done and what decisions should be made are what the Golden Core monks should do. They just need to obey orders.

Just when a few people were distracted, a startling rainbow shot toward the city wall at an extremely fast speed, quickly attracting everyone's attention.

As the distance got closer and closer, everyone could clearly see the appearance of the visitor. It was undoubtedly Wang Hengqiu who had come to Yuyao City and met once at the entrance.

At this time, Wang Hengqiu's face was pale, and while flying at high speed, he was holding a bloody monk in his hand.

Because the monk was severely injured, his breath was extremely disordered, his clothes were in tatters, and the blood scab covered his face, most people couldn't tell who he was and what his identity was.

It wasn't until Wang Hengqiu came a hundred feet away from the city wall that Li Xiuyuan saw the Zhenyang Sect's symbol on the torn Taoist robe. Judging from the weak breath of the bloody man, he seemed to know who this person was.

"Lu Hong...it's actually Lu Hong!"

Li Xiuyuan muttered something in a low voice. Even though his voice was very low, everyone around him could hear it clearly.

"Judging from the smell, there is no doubt that it is Senior Brother Lu!"

In the crowd, another disciple of the True Yang Sect also confirmed the identity of the bloody man and couldn't help shouting.

Soon, some True Yang Sect monks on the city wall confirmed the identity of the bloody man, and he was indeed his fellow disciple Lu Hong.

After all, Lu Hong's cultivation level is not weak. Every disciple in the later stage of foundation building is the backbone of Zhenyang Sect. Even if he has not interacted with many people, he is very familiar with him, or at least heard of his name.

At this moment, some monks who did not know Lu Hong were asking the disciples of the Zhenyang Sect about Lu Hong's specific identity. The entire city wall was suddenly talking about it, and they seemed to have forgotten about the alarm.

Lin Tianming and others were also very interested, and Li Xiuyuan did not hide anything and told Lu Hong's situation.

After a while, Tang Liusheng and others couldn't help but be shocked when they learned about Lu Hong's situation.

It seemed that Lu Hong's injuries were very serious. Even if his life was saved, his path to immortality would most likely stop here and it would be difficult to go further.

And Lu Hong, who has established the ninth level of foundation, is definitely the top existence except for the golden elixir monks with such powerful strength.

But even so, I don't know what Lu Hong went through to be so seriously injured. If he hadn't been rescued by the Golden Core cultivator, he would have definitely died.

Just as everyone was talking, a hole had been opened in the defensive formation, and Wang Hengqiu grabbed the unconscious Lu Hong and fell onto the city wall together.

The Jindan cultivator arrived, and the disciples of the Zhenyang Sect gathered one after another, surrounding Wang Hengqiu and the others.

Li Xiuyuan and Lin Tianming greeted each other, and then moved towards Wang Hengqiu and others, leaving them standing there at a loss.

However, although Lin Tianming and others did not go there, they were close to each other and were very clear about the exchanges between Wang Hengqiu and others.

At this time, Wang Hengqiu's face turned pale. He waved his hand to lift up the Zhenyang Sect disciples who were paying homage, and then looked at some faces in the crowd.

"Martial Nephew Long, take Lu Hong down quickly for treatment!"

After hearing the order, Long Qingshui, who was not far in front of him, hurriedly stepped forward, picked up the unconscious Lu Hong, and then passed some fellow disciples and rushed to the Zhenyang Palace in the center of the city.

As Long Qingshui left, Wang Hengqiu breathed a sigh of relief, and his pale face gradually regained a trace of color.

"Uncle Wang, have you ever been injured? What happened?"

Among the crowd, a monk from the Zhenyang Sect with a ninth-level foundation had a gloomy face and couldn't help but ask Wang Hengqiu.

"Well……"

Wang Hengqiu nodded and then started to explain.

"The army of demonic beasts has been dispatched. Master Nephew Lu encountered the army of demonic beasts while patrolling. He was chased by the late third-level demonic beasts. If he hadn't been lucky and met me while escaping, he would have been in a certain death situation."

After saying this, Wang Hengqiu ignored everyone's horrified looks.He jumped up and hovered above the city wall, scanning the many foundation-building monks below him, and a majestic and loud voice came out.

"The army of demon beasts is about to attack. Everyone, whether you are a disciple of our sect or a casual cultivator, please quickly prepare to fight!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the expressions of all the monks present changed drastically.

Although they had already guessed something in their minds when the bell rang, but now hearing it from the Jindan monk personally completely shattered their luck.

At this time, many monks' faces were pale, and some Qi Refining monks were slumped directly in the square, looking at a loss.

However, the vast majority of the monks were relatively calm. Under the command of the disciples of the True Yang Sect, they took out their weapons one after another. Hundreds of people gathered together as a group, ready to face the army of monsters.

While everyone was busy, three figures flew over the monks' heads and flew towards Wang Hengqiu.

From a long distance away, Chen Jingtian's voice could be heard.

"Senior Brother Wang, how is the situation? What is the strength of the attacking monster this time?"

"Ugh……"

When Wang Hengqiu saw the visitor, he sighed helplessly, and then said: "The specific situation is not clear yet!"

"When I was patrolling, I happened to encounter the late third-order flaming celestial lion chasing Junior Nephew Lu, and I tried to save him. I knew I was outmatched, so I had to leave first."

"Fortunately, I only encountered this monster at that time, otherwise senior brother and I would have been left behind by that beast!"

"But in this way, the specific situation of the monster beast army is unknown, but judging from the previous situation, we can predict that there will be at least five third-level monster beasts!"

Hearing this, Chen Jingtian frowned, and a look of solemnity flashed across his face involuntarily.

They had already fought two rounds with the Monster Legion before. At that time, there were only four third-level monsters with different strengths. Neither side took advantage.

Now, the monster beasts have been silent for a month. There are a small number of third-order monster beasts in the core areas of each major mountain range. After a period of gathering, the strength of the entire monster beast army will definitely be further enhanced.

Since the human race can dispatch troops and generals, the monster beasts are also not far behind.

It can be expected that in this monster attack, the number of third-level monsters will definitely exceed the first time, and may even reach double digits.

As a result, they only have four Golden Core monks here. Facing such a powerful army of monsters, one can imagine the pressure they will face.

Thinking of this, Chen Jingtian was very helpless, his eyes staring into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.

Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Wang Hengqiu opened his mouth to remind him.

"Junior Brother Chen, as the leader of all the monks in Yuyu City, quickly mobilize all the monks and prepare to defend against the enemy!"

Upon hearing the reminder, Chen Jingtian regained his composure and nodded, then gave instructions in his majestic and resonant voice.

"Everyone, form a team with a predetermined plan, use the defensive formation, and fight to the death to kill the invading enemy!"

The loud voice spread throughout the square and the city walls. His penetrating voice brought the lost monks back to reality.

All the Qi Refining monks raised their heads and looked at Chen Jingtian, who was standing with his hands high in the sky. Several of their Golden Pill monks were present. At this moment, the monks seemed to have forgotten their fear.

At this time, thousands of Qi Refining cultivators began to move and spontaneously formed into formations in units of a hundred people.

In a short time, nearly ten thousand people lined up. At the front of each team were three Qi Refining cultivators from the Zhenyang Sect, leading them.

In the huge square, hundreds of teams were lined up neatly, and everyone's face was filled with a chilling air.

Nearly [-] Qi Refining monks gathered together, all of whom were still in the late stage of Qi Refining. Such a large formation could invisibly erupt with a strong momentum, which was enough for a Foundation Establishing monk to feel oppressive.

On the city wall, Lin Tianming, Li Xiuyuan and others stood side by side, with more than 40 foundation-building monks gathered behind them. Most of them were at the fourth or fifth level of foundation-building, and there were only a dozen monks in the early stages of foundation-building.

These people were recruited by Li Xiuyuan among many casual cultivators. They are now teammates of Lin Tianming and others, and they will fight side by side in the next battle.

Although it was the first time for some people to meet him, Li Xiuyuan had already introduced Lin Tianming's identity and strength to them.

With his cultivation at the sixth level of foundation building and the Lin family's reputation, these people all looked at Lin Tianming with envy and respect.

At this moment, the defensive formation was operating at full strength, and a pale golden light curtain enveloped the entire Demon Yu City. Everyone was ready to go, paying attention to the movement coming from the distance.

At this moment, the scene was extremely calm. Everyone, including Chen Jingtian and other Golden Core cultivators, were looking into the distance, waiting for the monster beast army to appear.

Time passed slowly, and a cup of tea passed by.

Above the city wall, Chen Jingtian looked at the sandstorm slowly appearing on the horizon, and his expression suddenly became serious.

"Brothers...the monster army is here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Hengqiu and others' expressions changed, and they all looked ahead with wide eyes.

Sure enough, a huge sandstorm did appear in the distance, with no end in sight and no way to judge its scale.

While they were observing, the speed of the sandstorm was extremely fast. In just a few breaths, it transformed from a gray light sticking to the ground into a huge wave dozens of feet high, rushing towards this direction.

Feeling the speed of the wind speeding up and the faint sound coming, Zhu Yun, who had never spoken before, couldn't help but say something.

"It is indeed an army of demonic beasts, and its size seems to be several times larger than before. I'm afraid it will be a fierce battle next!"

Hearing this, Chen Jingtian nodded and immediately echoed.

"Brothers, let the formation consume the monster's vitality first, and then we will make arrangements based on the monster's specific strength!"

"Okay...be careful!" Wang Hengqiu nodded in response.

"Dengdengdeng..."

The sound became louder and louder, the oncoming storm further increased in height, and the monster beast army was getting closer and closer to the Demon Control City.

At this time, the ground began to shake, and the foundation-building monks on the city wall also felt the strong movement.

"I'm coming!"

Li Xiuyuan looked solemn, watching the huge storm approaching, he couldn't help but remind him.

Lin Tianming and Li Xiuyuan felt the movement at the same time. He looked calm, and then patted Qin Xi on the shoulder to remind her.

Immediately afterwards, some of the foundation-building monks behind him also felt the movement. Each of them looked extremely solemn, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

In this atmosphere, the oncoming storm was about to approach the city.

At this time, the strong wind blew towards the face and was blocked by the pale golden light curtain, while the earth shook frequently under the iron hooves of the monster army.
