Everyone's on a time-travel adventure! I'm raising city beasts in a post-apocalyptic world

"With so many vengeful spirits, should we still go in?"

"Maybe we shouldn't go!"

It was Fu Kui who spoke. Xiao Xuan stopped, and Zhao Gao called him down, saying that all those who had awakened had to go. As soon as he came down, he saw that everyone was going to enter the ruins, and his legs started trembling. He even shrank closer to Sun Nana.

"You coward, you don't have to go, but don't come when you're getting your profession later."

On the turtle's back, Lin Feng gazed at the ruins before him with a relaxed expression.

"This site... it doesn't seem very dangerous?"

He himself found it a bit strange when he said this. Logically speaking, he should have felt extremely terrified, but standing here, apart from feeling a bit cold and hearing occasional noisy hissing, he did not feel any sense of panic about being swallowed up.

almost none.

Am I just too strong?

"Go!" Wang Lie's voice came from ahead. "All Awakened Ones, enter the ruins. Remember to maintain formation."

More than twenty awakened individuals took a deep breath and stepped onto the edge of the ruins. As soon as they entered, the howling of vengeful spirits from all directions suddenly rose in intensity. The unconsciously wandering vengeful spirits collectively turned and surged toward the intruders.

"They're here!"

Wang Lie was the first to strike. A thick arc of electricity exploded in his palm, and the crackling lightning illuminated the area within a radius of several meters. He swung his right arm, and the arc of electricity transformed into a long whip that lashed into the horde of vengeful spirits. Three vengeful spirits that came towards him were pierced by the lightning, and after letting out a piercing scream, they exploded into a pile of fragments, turning into smoke and dust and dissipating, leaving behind a few eerie crystals.

Master Lin followed closely behind, making a hand seal with his left hand and flicking his right hand to throw out three talismans. The talismans turned into a ball of flame in mid-air and exploded with a bang, blasting away several vengeful spirits that rushed up. Their spirit bodies dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Heavenly Thunder Talisman...Go!"

He then took out a talisman that shimmered with silver light. The talisman transformed into a bolt of silver lightning and struck one of the vengeful spirits. The spirit trembled violently, its body cracked open with spiderweb-like patterns, and then vanished on the spot.

The other awakened ones also used their own methods. Bai Zhirou's longsword slashed out white sword energy, and wherever the sword energy reached, the vengeful spirits were cut in two. Dong Yu rushed into the horde of vengeful spirits, wielding a steel whip. Each lash sent a vengeful spirit flying, only to be finished off by its companions behind it.

Even when scratched by the claws of vengeful spirits, it only results in superficial injuries. Although they look terrifying, these seemingly horrific wounds are not fatal due to her innate talent of steel bones. Instead, they arouse her ferocity, and she wields her whip so tightly that the vengeful spirits that surround her are beaten to a pulp.

"A level 4 vengeful spirit has appeared! Everyone be careful!" Master Lin shouted as he spotted a vengeful spirit that was unlike any other. The spirit was wearing armor and wielding a halberd wreathed in black energy.

"Heavenly Thunder Talisman..."

He unleashed several talismans, and lightning struck the level 4 vengeful spirit that pounced from the side. The vengeful spirit took three hits of heavenly lightning talismans, but staggered back several steps, its armor somewhat damaged.

"Too thick-skinned, focus fire!"

Bai Zhirou had already moved forward, her longsword wrapped in a layer of pale white cold light. The tip of the sword pierced straight into the chest of the level 4 vengeful spirit that had been shattered by the Heavenly Thunder Talisman. The moment the blade pierced in, the power of ice spread, freezing half of the vengeful spirit's body into an ice block. The two-and-a-half-meter-tall man attacked from the other side, punching the vengeful spirit's frozen body.

The level 4 vengeful spirit didn't even have time to scream before it was blasted into a pile of ice shards.

However, there are more level 4 vengeful spirits than expected.

Less than three minutes after the first wave of contact, seven more level 4 wraiths emerged from beneath their feet. They were all wielding halberds and clad in armor, their spirits several times more solid than level 3 wraiths. Facing the array of level 4 wraiths, the group felt as if a thousand troops were crushing them, and instinctively retreated. Even Wang Lie and his companions felt a chill run down their spines.

"Scatter! Don't stand together!" Wang Lie shouted, the lightning in his hand surging.

Lin Feng stood on the turtle's back, looking at the team that was about to be wiped out as soon as they stepped into the ruins, and sighed.

"Sigh... this team is doomed without me."

"Xiao Rui!"

Xiao Rui peeked out from behind Lin Feng: "I'm here."

"Go and pour the strange crystals you've earned these past few days under the roots of the Tree of Life."

"How much?"

"all!"

Xiao Rui paused for a moment, then, without asking any further questions, called over a few maids, grabbed several bags of strange crystals, and ran to the Tree of Life. She untied the bags, and the strange crystals poured out around the tree roots. As if coming to life, tiny roots emerged from the soil, probing into the pile of strange crystals, wrapping and enveloping them, and the energy was quickly absorbed.

"Open up natural barriers."

The canopy of the Tree of Life suddenly lit up, and a layer of green light spread from the trunk, spreading in all directions along the turtle's back, eventually condensing into a transparent light curtain on Xiao Xuan's entire shell.

"Beautiful, Xiao Xuan, your turn, sweep it all..."

Xiao Xuan, who had been quietly crawling on the edge of the ruins, suddenly stood up, supported his massive body, and stepped into the ruins. It was like a moving mountain. With each step, obstacles in front of him and ruins under his feet collapsed and were leveled.

When those vengeful spirits crashed into the light screen, it was as if they had hit an invisible wall. They were bounced far away, their figures emitting large amounts of blue smoke, and their spirits could barely stay still.

Wang Lie glanced back and immediately understood Lin Feng's meaning: "Retreat, retreat towards the Xuan Turtle."

Those who had awakened saw this scene, and a hint of excitement and relief flashed in their eyes.

They fought and retreated, gradually moving from a state of scattered flight towards Xiao Xuan, relying on him to resist the vengeful spirits' attacks.

"Attention all convoy members, attention all members participating in this operation, follow closely behind the Xuan Turtle and advance. The rest of you stay and guard the perimeter of the ruins..." After the loudspeaker on the train blared, Guo Yi pushed the control lever, and the train followed closely behind, followed by the more than one hundred armored vehicles.

"Quickly... get on the roof of the vehicle and operate the ballista."

Twenty or thirty people crawled out of the train and climbed to the top, where more than ten crossbows were activated and automatically cocked and loaded under the power of electricity. Each crossbow bolt had a talisman attached to it.

"Aim, fire!!!"

One crossbow bolt after another whistled through the air, piercing through the swarming vengeful spirits, then flashing with lightning and vanishing into thin air.

"Brothers in the back, keep the convoy in formation, aim carefully before firing."

"Success or failure hinges on this!!!"

With this roar, the entire convoy fully deployed its formation. Xiao Xuan led the way, leveling the ruins with every step. Golden eyes swept across the sky, and the newly appeared level 4 monsters were hit by golden sword feathers. Two hit the chest and one hit the head, and they were instantly shattered by the sword energy.
