Changsheng Xiuxian: I can see through everything

Chapter 81: Shocking Beast Tide (Please Subscribe)

Inner City Law Enforcement Hall Headquarters.

Li Changfeng sat in the middle, and the five deacons sat below him.

"In this month's performance review, first place went to Inner City, second to West City, followed by East City, South City, and North City."

Li Changfeng looked at Dongcheng and the other three deacons with some disappointment.

"What happened? We were actually surpassed by the newcomer Xicheng. How can you be so embarrassed?"

The three deacons were speechless.

The name of the insect demon Chen Xuan has reached their ears.

When we catch criminals coming from Xicheng and ask them why they came here, the reasons are mostly the same.

The deacon of West City is the insect tamer Chen Xuan, who has a nickname called Insect Demon, and no one dares to mess with him.

All the gangs in the West City shantytowns, except for the Wild Wolf Gang, were wiped out.

No one disagrees.

Those who refused to obey were forced to lie down in the dirt.

How can I discuss this matter with Elder Li?
They have been in the sect for many years and have always been harmonious.

Unlike Chen Xuan, who has no foundation and no relatives or friends in the sect, he doesn't have to consider anyone's face.

"Forget it, try harder next time, and step back! Chen Xuan, you stay for a while."

After everyone left, Li Changfeng asked Chen Xuan to sit down.

"sit down!"

"You are now the deacon of the West City Law Enforcement Hall. There is something I should let you know."

Chen Xuan sat down obediently and asked, "Elder, please speak."

"This matter is a sect secret and is only known to those above the level of market deacon. It must not be disclosed to the outside world."

Li Changfeng looked at Chen Xuan with a serious expression.

"Yes. I was promoted by the elder, so I will follow his lead."

Chen Xuan said earnestly, feeling a little surprised.

Is there something important that cannot be disclosed to the public and is only known to middle and high-level personnel in the market?
Li Changfeng nodded, appreciating Chen Xuan's statement.

"Last year, the market recruited personnel, and the four armies that opened up the wasteland all failed. You should be aware of this."

"I understand. I also participated in the Western Wilderness Army's operations."

"All four pioneering armies suffered defeat, and many monks were killed. Aren't you surprised?"

"It's a bit strange. But this is also my first time participating in a land reclamation war, so I don't know the reason."

"Actually, the reason is very simple. The demonic birds and beasts have joined forces, and the Devil Sect is behind it."

"what!"

Chen Xuan had read the diary of the demon cultivator, so he was not completely ignorant of the Demon Sect.

Across the wilderness is the State of Liang, which is a mortal enemy of the State of Song. Its main forces are the six major demon sects, each with its own unique skills. Their true strength is probably even greater than that of the seven major sects of the State of Song.

"Elder, could it be that the Demon Sect will attack our Song Kingdom?"

"That's not the case."

Li Changfeng pondered and said, "According to the analysis of the sect elders, it is not yet time for a decisive battle. Although the Liang Kingdom Demon Sect is powerful, it is internally disunited. Our seven major sects in the Song Kingdom have formed a de facto alliance."

"That's good."

Chen Xuan is currently weak, but he doesn't want a war between the Taoists and demons to break out between the Song and Liang countries.

"However, before the great war begins, minor friction is inevitable. The Demon Sect and the demon cultivators from the Savage Plains have joined forces, commanding demonic birds and beasts to counterattack the market pioneers. I'm afraid they'll even organize a beast tide to attack the market!"

Chen Xuan's heart tightened and he looked at the other person.

"Qingyun Market has been operating for hundreds of years and shouldn't be abandoned lightly." Elder Li said softly, "Every twenty years, there's a beast tide. With the market's defense formation, we shouldn't be in any danger."

"However, this time, the situation is a little special. I'm worried that the Demon Sect monks are causing trouble behind the scenes."

"Chen Xuan, you'd better make preparations early. If the market is breached, you can take the jade token of your deacon status and go to the Jinyang Sect headquarters to practice."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan's heart was suddenly filled with turbulent waves.

Sure enough, things are not that simple.

The pioneering team failed, and many disciples of the sect and family secretly moved away, obviously they were insiders.

"However, there's no need to worry too much! Qingyun Market has seven foundation-building cultivators from the sect, and we can also recruit a dozen foundation-building cultivators from the cultivation families and independent cultivators to jointly defend. It shouldn't be a big deal."

"According to convention, there will be no third-level monsters in the beast tide. Similarly, the sect's Jindan Zhenren cannot take action."

It turned out that the sect and the demon cultivators had already had a tacit understanding.

"Elder, will there be a beast tide this year?"

"Very likely!"

Chen Xuan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He was still at the sixth level of Qi training, and wanted to hone his Dao heart, improve his spiritual awareness and magical power, and after laying a solid foundation, break through to the seventh level of Qi training.

Now it seems that not only can the speed of cultivation not be slowed down, but when necessary, one can take rank-breaking elixirs to force a breakthrough. As for the side effects of using rank-breaking elixirs, he is almost dead, so why should he care about the side effects!

At the seventh level of Qi training, entering the late stage of Qi training, with the help of strange insects such as the psychic green snake, you may be able to escape from the second-level monster birds and beasts.

Take a deep breath.

Chen Xuan bowed deeply to Li Changfeng.

"Thank you for telling me, Elder."

"Don't tell anyone, not even your wife!"

"Yes, I will follow the elder's order."

"Go back!"

After leaving the Law Enforcement Hall headquarters and walking in the inner city, it is still prosperous.

Beast tide?

According to the time of previous years, if there is a beast tide this year, it should be during the autumnal equinox.

There is still half a year left.

If there is enough insect spirit essence, plus the spiritual pill that can break through the level, there is still hope to break through to the seventh level of Qi training.

The only option before him was to improve his strength as quickly as possible.

If he abandoned his post and fled, not only would he have nowhere to go, but if Jin Yangzong issued a wanted order, there would be no place for him in the entire Song Dynasty.

Go buy some defensive magic tools.

Chen Xuan now only has the Qingmu Sword and the Storm Poison Syringe.

The latter has been eliminated.

The sect shop in the inner city.

Seeing the Jinyang Sect logo on Chen Xuan's clothes, the waitress came forward enthusiastically.

"Sir, are you looking to buy something? Sect members are getting a 10% discount on everything."

"I need some high-quality defensive magic weapons."

"My lord, please follow me."

The waitress took him to the VIP room.

Then, he brought out a few brocade boxes.

"Please look, sir. These are all top-grade defensive magic weapons."

Chen Xuan was not polite and took them out one by one from the brocade box to look at them.

As soon as the defensive magic weapon was taken out, it spontaneously attracted spiritual energy and emitted waves of spiritual power.

“These are the treasures of the store, and each one is a rare treasure.”

The waitress's face was full of confidence, and then she began to introduce Chen Xuan one by one.

"This magical weapon is called the Flying Dragon Umbrella, a metal magical weapon, so..."

"This is the Black Turtle Shield..."

"This is the Nine Seal Flag..."

Time passed little by little.

After repeated deliberation and screening.

Chen Xuan finally chose a Qinglong Bell defensive magic weapon.

The Blue Dragon Bell is a bluish-red color, its outer shell covered in strange runes, bearing the marks of time. Inside the bell, a blue dragon hidden in the clouds is engraved, appearing to be alive.

Chen Xuan only took a glance and felt that the clock was a little strange.

The waitress told him that the Azure Dragon Bell was made from the fragments of an ancient treasure. It was very strong and could withstand several attacks from foundation-building monks.

Not cheap either.

An ordinary high-grade magic weapon costs no more than three to five hundred spirit stones.

This Qinglong Bell costs as much as 1,500 spirit stones.

"Qingqing, what's so mysterious about this clock?"

"Buy it first and show it to me later."

Chen Xuan gritted his teeth and took out 1,350 spirit stones.

After leaving the sect shop, he found a deserted place and tried the defense of the Qinglong Bell.

It is really strong.

The Qingmu sword intent, with 70% of its magic power, was completely unharmed on the Qinglong Bell.

The terrifying defensive power is enough to protect one's own safety.

The psychic green snake appeared, coiled around the Qinglong Bell, tilted its head, and seemed to be listening to something.
