Germany

Chapter 399
Fiery magma gushes out from the ground, and scalding wind howls and sweeps past.

The empty city burned like a lit paper, sank into the fire, and became the nourishment of the sea of ​​fire.

The lava flowed forward along the terrain, and the meandering flames were like fire dragons roaring into the beast tide.

In an instant, countless monsters were buried in the molten flames.

The monster birds neighed angrily, but before they could get close, the blazing wind ignited their wings.

The flames swallowed the body of the demon bird in an instant, and one after another fireballs fell from the sky, merged with the sea of ​​fire, and reflected half of the sky red.

Wu Yaochen looked at the magnificent and fierce scene, his eyes were as still as still water.

Like him, there are others who use the power of nature to make the most of the situation.

The knife fell and the embankment was broken, the uncontrolled river rushed wildly, the land suddenly became a vast ocean, and countless waterspouts towered to the sky, making it impossible for animals to walk and birds to cross.

The peaks and canyons were cut into a specific shape, and when the golden bell rang, the echoes and sounds overlapped and poured out endlessly, eventually becoming an overwhelming trend, killing the enemy invisible.

The cultivators guarding the key points have lived up to their expectations and become the nails that dug into the beast tide, defusing wave after wave of attacks by monster beasts and buying enough time for the mortals to evacuate.

But not everywhere is so safe.

The catastrophe of the mountain gate, the loss of the disciples, and the mobilization and deliberate targeting of the demon clan have made many areas in crisis.

……

On the rugged mountain road, there is a long team of humans moving forward like a colony of ants.

The mortals kept their heads on the road, and the monks accompanied them on both sides.

Most mortals have two talismans on their chests.A low-level Lightweight Talisman and a low-level Speed ​​Talisman greatly increased a person's movement speed.

Each person also carries a batch of talismans with him, and whenever the spiritual power of the talismans on his chest is exhausted, he will replace them by himself.This kind of low-level talisman can be used freely even by ordinary people.

The limited number of manned talismans were distributed to another group of people, namely the elderly, children, and the sick, weak, and disabled.

A one-legged man sits on the back of a phantom crane.The crane walks slowly with its long legs, its back is broad and flat, and its wings are turned up to protect people from falling.

At the heart of the crane phantom, a talisman shimmered.

In addition to the cranes, there are different shapes of talisman phantoms such as cattle, horses, sheep, tigers, leopards, and lions, each of which carries mortals forward silently.

The one-legged man was located on the outside of the mortal team, with Su Tian and Su Huan next to him.

The brothers and sisters, like other monks, guarded the surroundings while taking care of the mortals.

The one-legged man held his luggage and stretched his neck to look behind him.

In the direction from where it came from, on the horizon, thick smoke rose everywhere, mixed with flickering lights of various colors.

Fear appeared in his eyes, and he couldn't help but talk to Su Tian under his fear: "Master Immortal, will the monsters catch up?"

Su Tian looked back at the distant scene, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, but he said: "Don't worry, my brothers and sisters are very powerful, and they will definitely be able to stop them."

The man's emotions were a little appeased, and he asked again: "Then, how long do we have to escape? Where are we going to escape?"

"This one……"

The question was beyond Su Tian's grasp of information, but she rolled her eyes, and instead of directly answering "I don't know", she said, "Are you tired? If you keep at it, a flying vehicle will come to pick you up soon. It’s much more comfortable, and I’ll take you directly to your destination, don’t worry.”

"Oh oh..."

The man showed a dazed expression, not noticing that his question was not really answered.

After a while he was worried again.

"We were not implicated in the beast tide last time, but this time... Immortal Master, I heard that you died a lot of people a while ago, is it because of this that the beast tide hit here this time? Repel the beast tide? Where we are going, there will be no more monsters coming over, right?"

Su Tian was so questioned that he didn't know how to answer for a moment. At this time, Su Huan said from the side: "What are you worrying about, you can't die even if the monsters come here."

He paused for a moment and then continued, "If we die, we die first."

Su Tian thought he was speaking bluntly, so she put her arm away from him.

However, the man swept away his worry like letting go of a big stone in his heart, rubbed the back of his head and smiled embarrassedly.

"When you get flustered, you like to think about it. What the immortal master said is that you have always protected us. I believe you, Taichuguan will protect everyone this time."

Su Huan's expression moved, and he turned his face away.

At this moment, a figure flew over from the front, it was the Foundation Establishment cultivator who was in charge of Su Tian's team on the day of departure.

He glanced at the two brothers and sisters, and said: "Join the team, Brother Liang has an order, I will follow him to stop the monster."

After speaking, he continued to inform the rest of the team without waiting for the two to respond.

Su Tian and Su Huan looked at each other, knowing that there was a wave of beasts breaking through the line of defense, and the situation was so serious that they needed Qi practitioners like them to play.

The two immediately started to follow the man, and when they flew away, a man shouted loudly from behind:
"Master Immortal, be careful!"

……

Lanxi Island, Zhao Family.

The open and secret struggles surrounding the position of Patriarch that others imagined have not appeared now.

The reason is that after Zhao Jinxu came back, he stayed alone in the mourning hall and refused to contact the Zhao family.

No matter who the Zhao family is, if they want to see him, they will be stopped by the accompanying elders sent by Taichuguan.Even if someone entered the mourning hall on the grounds of worship, he would avoid it in advance.

Without seeing Zhao Jinxu himself, no matter how many plans and plans he could make, the Zhao family fell into a strange tranquility.

It continues like this until today.

Yin Xueze stepped into the gate of the mourning hall, and stopped for a while.

Recalling the entrustment of the elders just now, he frowned slightly, his eyes full of deep thought.

He collected himself, suppressed his thoughts for a while, and then stepped into the door.

In the slightly dim hall, Zhao Jinxu, dressed in plain, knelt in front of the altar and burned paper.

The moment his eyes fell on Zhao Jinxu's back, a shadow flashed in Yin Xueze's peripheral vision.

It seemed to be the figure of a woman, but it disappeared so quickly that one could not help but suspect it was an illusion.

Yin Xueze turned his eyes and was about to investigate carefully, when Zhao Jinxu turned his head: "Brother?"

Yin Xueze looked back at him and asked, "Is anyone else here?"

"no, what happened?"

"……nothing."

Then, Yin Xueze fell silent.

He stared at the leaping flames in front of Zhao Jinxu, clenched his fists and said nothing.

Zhao Jinxu suddenly asked: "Did the elders ask you to persuade me?"

Yin Xueze was stunned for a moment, but immediately came to his senses and said, "They already told you?"

"That's right, I hinted at it euphemistically."

Zhao Jinxu put another stack of ghost paper into the fire.

"The beast horde is coming again, the sect is short of manpower, they don't have time to spend with me, I understand."

His calm and calm tone made Yin Xueze frown even tighter.

After thinking for a long time, Yin Xueze said in a deep voice, "I told them to go first."

"how about you?"

"I'll stay with you."

Zhao Jinxu paused, then shook his head.

"No, let's go back together."

He threw all the remaining ghost papers into the fire, stood up, and looked directly at Yin Xueze.

"I'm not the head of the house."
