Family Cultivation: Evergreen of the Song Family

"Om-"

The might of the dragon was everywhere, and the world seemed to have fallen silent at this moment. Facing the threat of the [Six-Winged Dragon Snake], tens of thousands of water monsters trembled in the river, not daring to have the slightest desire to resist.

This is because the [Six-Winged Dragon Snake] is not only the demon king, but also a dragon, and the dragon has a natural suppression on water demons. Under the tyranny of the [Six-Winged Dragon Snake], they can only watch the huge herd of beasts pass through the "ice road".

[Six-Winged Dragon Snake] looked down at the beasts crossing the river like a tide, glanced at the water monsters around him who dared to be angry but not to speak, a trace of disdain flashed in his huge vertical pupils, but that was all, and he did not take any further action.

It only wanted to use the passage to march eastward, and did not want to break up with the water monster in Canglan River, because it would do it no good but only harm.

The Canglan River has many tributaries, and there is no shortage of powerful demon kings among them. If they are angered, it will be difficult to cross the river in the future, let alone the Eastern Expedition...

Watching the large herds of beasts crossing the river, Song Changsheng's brows were wrinkled into the shape of the Chinese character "川".

The reason why the human race and the demon race use the Canglan River as the boundary is, firstly, because there is an extremely dangerous layer of Gangqi in the sky, and secondly, because there are a large number of water monsters in the river.

With these two obstacles in place, neither the demon race nor the human race can easily cross the border.

According to the expectations of Song Changsheng and others, the monsters would lose at least one-fifth of their forces if they wanted to cross the Canglan River. However, they did not expect that, apart from the loss of some monster birds, the rest of the monsters suffered almost no losses!
"I was too optimistic about the situation before and underestimated this [Six-Winged Dragon Snake]. It must have reached a tacit understanding with the Demon King in the Canglan River!"

Song Changsheng suddenly had the urge to curse. What about the agreement not to violate land and water? What about the agreement that the king's territory cannot be touched?

It's all bullshit. These demon kings are so shameless.

After his anger, a deep worry emerged in Song Changsheng's heart. The scale of the beast tide before him was far beyond what he and Niu Dazhuang had seen before, and it was roughly estimated to be more than 300,000.

Although low-level monsters make up the majority of them, the power they gather together is also very terrifying. Even a Jindan cultivator seems powerless in the face of a beast tide of this scale.

"I don't know if Dingyuan City can withstand this storm."

Looking at the army of monsters heading straight for Dingyuan City, Song Changsheng thought worriedly.

The first target of the [Six-Winged Dragon Snake] is definitely Dingyuan City. If it finds that it cannot capture Dingyuan City in a short period of time, the herd will split up.

At that time, the Five Elements Peak would also face tremendous pressure.

This is still the most ideal state.

If Dingyuan City fell to the first wave of the beast tide, things would be troublesome. The beast tide would expand from a point to an area and would soon become a force to be reckoned with, and then would quickly sweep across Tuozhou. At that time, Luoxia City would once again become the front line in the fight against monsters.

"I hope it won't come to this." Song Changsheng sighed lightly, turned around and returned to the Five Elements Peak to prepare for battle.

On the other side, Zhan Tianxia and others who received the news that the beast herd had successfully crossed the river also frowned. The scale of the beast tide was beyond their expectations.

"Use the [Luoxia Ship], now is not the time to hide your abilities." Mu Guibai said in a deep voice at the front.

Hearing this, Zhan Tianxia frowned and said, "Isn't it too early?"

[Luoxia Ship] is a top-notch spaceship that Luoxia City found a long time ago. When it is at full firepower, even the Demon King will suffer a loss.

It was originally intended as a trump card to deal with the [Six-Winged Dragon Snake], but now there is no choice but to expose this trump card in advance.

In such a large battlefield, the power of a top-notch spaceship is enough to reverse the direction of the battlefield, and there will be no problem in resisting the first wave of beasts.

However, this reduced the confidence in dealing with the [Six-Winged Dragon Snake].

Seeing everyone's worried expressions, Mu Guibai said warmly, "Don't panic. The beast tide is not a matter for Luoxia City and our sect. I have already informed the fellows of Jinwu Sect and Tianmai Sect. They will send people to fight the beast tide soon."

Hearing this, everyone felt relieved. If there were two real people stationed in Dingyuan City, the siege of the beast tide could be lifted at any time.

Only Shen Qingxiu's expression remained solemn. If asking for help was really that easy, Luoxia City would not have been fighting against the beast tide for two thousand years. People from the Jinwu Sect and the Tianmai Sect... were not trustworthy.

Although she had her doubts in her heart, it was obviously inappropriate to say such words that would undermine morale in the current situation. Moreover, she didn't need to say it, she believed that Mu Guibai could see things more long-term than she did.

After all... he never disappoints.

As if he sensed someone was watching him, Mu Guibai turned his head and nodded slightly to Shen Qingxiu. Just as he was about to tell everyone not to be too optimistic, he suddenly raised his eyebrows, stood up suddenly, and said in a serious voice: "The [Six-Winged Dragon Snake] is here."

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became extremely solemn because of Mu Guibai's words.

Everyone followed Mu Guibai to the top of the city wall. At this moment, the city defense formation had been activated, and a group of Luoxia City disciples had already climbed onto the city wall, holding magic weapons or operating the equipment on the city wall to aim at the wilderness outside the city.

Over there, in a place they couldn't see, there was a violent vibration coming from far away, and the extremely dense demonic energy was floating towards Dingyuan City like haze. As disciples of Luoxia City, they all knew what it represented. It was destruction, blood... and death.

Seeing the majestic demonic energy getting closer and closer, they couldn't help but feel a layer of slippery cold sweat appearing on their palms.

"The city lord is here."

"The Grand City Lord is here."

Suddenly, a voice sounded in the crowd, and then spread more and more widely. All the disciples of Luoxia City turned their heads at the same time, and when they saw the figure in snow-white clothes, their originally nervous minds slowly eased.

That figure was as reassuring as ever.

Looking at those figures, some old and some young, Mu Guibai didn't say a word. He just landed on the city wall like a light fallen leaf, looking ahead calmly.

"Wow—"

"Chirp—"

A noisy sound came from the sky, and Zhan Tianxia and others saw a "black cloud" emerging from the horizon and approaching Dingyuan City at a high speed.

When they got closer, everyone realized that they were not "black clouds" at all, but huge demon birds. There was a fierce light flashing in their eyes, and every flap of their wings seemed to stir up a hurricane.

They stopped hundreds of miles away from Luoxia City, as if waiting for something.

"Big Brother, good opportunity!"

Zhan Tianxia's eyes lit up. Although these evil birds stayed far away, the large-scale attacking magic weapons placed on the walls of Dingyuan City were able to cover them all.

If a salvo were launched at this time, it would be enough to destroy a small half of the demon birds and directly seize the initiative on the battlefield.

"No rush." ​​Mu Guibai shook his head slightly. Although this was a very rare opportunity, there was no need to expose Dingyuan City's defense arrangements so early.

It is right to play the long game and catch the big fish.

What's more, there is a big guy behind who has not shown up yet.

“Boom…” “Boom…”

The city wall suddenly began to tremble violently. Everyone's eyes moved forward and saw the outline of a huge body slowly emerging from the thick demonic aura.

The body, as big as a mountain, made the earth tremble every time it moved forward, and the demonic aura that seemed to be real made people's heart beat faster.

"I heard that the idiot Lei Ming died in your hands. I'm very curious about how you were able to do it. Your body is very ordinary."

The gaze of [Six-Winged Dragon Snake] crossed a thousand miles and fell on Mu Guibai, its tone full of provocation.

“I am originally an ordinary person, with a mortal body. Naturally, there is nothing special about this body. It cannot compare to the true dragon bloodline inherited from ancient times by the demon king.

But...if the demon king wants to attack Dingyuan City, Mu's sword will not be at a disadvantage."

After the last word was spoken, a majestic aura suddenly burst out from Mu Guibai's body, confronting the [Six-Winged Dragon Snake] head-on, making people dare not look directly at him.

"Ha, invade your Dingyuan City? Why would I invade your Dingyuan City? I came here today just to see who killed that idiot Lei Ming.

Seeing you today... oh, it's just like this."

[Six-Winged Dragon Snake] sneered, said some nonsense, and then turned around and left.

The "black cloud"-like monster birds in the sky also turned around in unison and flew away flapping their wings.

Zhan Tianxia and others had thought of countless possibilities, but they did not expect this situation to be the case, which caught them off guard for a moment.

"This……"

"Big Brother, are they... gone?" Zhan Tianxia said with a look of disbelief on his face.

Mu Guibai also frowned, wondering what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of [Six-Winged Dragon Snake].

However, judging from their direction, they did seem to have left.

At this moment, a stream of light shot out from the sky, passed through the barrier of the city defense formation and hovered in front of everyone.

Mu Guibai stretched out his hand and the stream of light exploded instantly, leaving only a slightly terrified voice echoing in everyone's ears - "The beast tide split into dozens of paths on the spot, bypassing Dingyuan City and heading in different directions."

"what?"

In an instant, everyone's expression changed drastically.

Although every beast tide will develop to this stage, the prerequisite for reaching that stage is that the first round of general offensive of the demon clan is thwarted, and the retaliatory offensive launched after seeing no hope of victory is aimed at killing and destruction, not occupying territory.

The newly promoted demon king [Six-winged Dragon Snake] led his herd of beasts and attacked aggressively, but he directly bypassed Dingyuan City and divided his troops to directly attack the hinterland of Tuozhou.

It doesn't look like they are here to expand their territory, but rather they are here to cause destruction.

"Sabotage? Thinking of this, Mu Guibai was startled.

Perhaps, they had preconceived ideas from the very beginning that the [Six-Winged Dragon Snake] launched the beast tide not to open up territory, but simply for killing.

Its purpose is to muddy and disrupt the water in Tuozhou!
Therefore, it would not come to tackle the tough bone of Dingyuan City because it is meaningless. It came here with great fanfare today, perhaps... it really was just that the [Six-Winged Dragon Snake] wanted to take a look at Mu Guibai?

In fact, Mu Guibai was wrong about this.

[Six-Winged Dragon Snake] really thought about attacking Dingyuan City. It brought these monster birds here today and deliberately let them stay within the attack range of Dingyuan City in order to test the firepower of Dingyuan City so that it could make targeted arrangements.

But Mu Guibai's vigilance was beyond its expectations, and he resisted the temptation.

In addition, Mu Guibai was indeed not someone who could be easily dealt with. Although he sounded disdainful before leaving, he was actually extremely alert in his heart.

After careful consideration, it decided to avoid Dingyuan City, which was a tough nut to crack. After all, its purpose of coming here was not to open up new territory.

Just like that, it took a step that Mu Guibai and even the entire Da Qi cultivation world could not have predicted. Dingyuan City, which was at the center of the storm, suddenly became the safest place in the entire Tuozhou.

I have to say, it is really full of drama...

"Spread the news immediately throughout the world, and let everyone be vigilant."

"But what should we do about the [Six-Winged Dragon Snake]? If it attacks everywhere, who else in Tuozhou can resist it except for my eldest brother?"

"I will personally keep an eye on it. I will also contact fellow Taoists from the Tianmai Sect and the Jinwu Sect to work together and try to kill it!"

"As you command!" Zhan Tianxia and the others bowed and left...

Not long after, Song Changsheng, who was far away at the Five Elements Peak, received a message from Zhan Tianxia's flying sword. After seeing the news recorded on it, Song Changsheng suddenly felt unwell.

That's more than 300,000 monsters. Even if it were 300,000 pigs rushing into Tuozhou, it would be a headache.

"No matter we win or lose this time, it will be a huge disaster for all the people in Tuozhou..." Song Changsheng said in a gloomy tone as if he had already seen the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

"Chief, the spies reported that they had discovered traces of a beast tide?" Song Qingshi suddenly came to Song Changsheng and said.

"Beast tide? Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?" Song Changsheng's brows suddenly twisted together, and he almost thought there was something wrong with his ears.

In the world of cultivation, generally only a group of monsters that reaches tens of thousands and is well organized can be called a beast tide. Does that mean that tens of thousands of monsters are attacking?
Song Qingshi said solemnly, "It is said that there are more than 30,000 monsters. When they move, the earth shakes. There are three confirmed big monsters."

"Three big demons..."

This scale can indeed be called a small beast tide, enough to destroy a small Zifu family.

"Qingshi, tell everyone to prepare for war. No matter if it's a small group of monsters or a small beast tide, we will fight them with our soldiers and block the water with earth." Song Changsheng sighed deeply.

In fact, he could have chosen to lead his men to withdraw, since these monsters were not here to seize territory anyway.

But the key point is that the resources in Zhangye County are so abundant that they account for one-third of the Song family's current total income. If they just give it up like that, who knows what kind of harm will be done to it by these monsters.

Some wars are unavoidable. If they don't fight, their descendants will suffer. Rather than being despised by future generations, it is better to fight now.

Besides, they may not lose this battle!
