Chapter 1311 - 1310: The Beast Tide Surges
Cloud Mist Mountain Range, at the mouth of a hidden valley, Leng Ying and Yuan Yuxi were on guard.
They occasionally looked outside the valley, though most of the small valley was hidden by trees, and fog within the valley made its location remarkably secretive.
Therefore, Leng Ying was not worried about people discovering this place, nor about them being disturbed here.
Meanwhile, Yuan Yuxi, Chen Xinyi, Su Xiaoyue, and Qingcheng were chatting softly.
"Xinyi, do you think Lin Fei will help Zimo and Yixue enhance their power this time?"
"I think Lin Fei will at least help them reach the same level of the Saint Sect as we have."
"Once we all reach the strength of the Saint Sect, we can team up and won't need Lin Fei to save us all the time."
"Hmm, I hope one day we can share Lin Fei's burdens and help him eliminate powerful enemies," Chen Xinyi said with a face full of anticipation.
Leng Ying couldn't help but speak: "I fear that wish might never come true. From my point of view, Lin Fei is the strongest person in this world, and it seems no one can defeat him.
Let alone needing us to save him, that could never happen."
Yuan Yuxi, Chen Xinyi, and the others did not refute, knowing Leng Ying was speaking the truth.
Lin Fei had never been defeated before, not to mention needing someone to save him; rather, they had often been a burden to Lin Fei.
As Leng Ying and Yuan Yuxi were talking at the cave entrance, about ten miles away from the valley, a group of people stood atop a peak.
Leading them was Celestial Saint Liu Tiandao, with Grand Elder Fan Zong, other elders, Qin Ying, and thirty Saint Guards by his side.
Liu Tiandao's gaze looked far into the hidden valley where Leng Ying and the others were, a gleam in his eyes.
"Jingchen is in that hidden valley. Though the Celestial Saint Order's aura from him is weak, I can still sense it clearly coming from that valley."
Fan Zong looked at Liu Tiandao and asked, "Celestial Saint, what should we do next?"
Liu Tiandao's eyes glowed with a golden hue like gilded pearls, and as he looked at the valley, he said, "I can see the valley and the cave inside guarded at the entrance.
I suspect Jingchen has been captured and taken into the cave. Attacking directly might alert them and endanger Jingchen's life. Instead, we should use the beasts to attack and lure out the people in the cave."
"Celestial Saint thinks thoroughly, I will activate the Beast Summoning Order now!" Fan Zong said, taking out a palm-sized bronze token.
The token was engraved with the head of a menacing beast and inscribed with many mysterious symbols.
As Fan Zong infused Holy Qi Power into his hands, the bronze token flew out and quickly soared toward the mountain peaks.
Fan Zong quickly formed hand seals and chanted incantations.
In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, a green fog began to spread rapidly across hundreds of kilometers in the mountain peaks.
As the eerie green fog spread, unseen phenomena began to appear in the mountains as well.
In the deep valleys, gorges, and caves of the mountains, beasts of fierce appearance seemed to be stimulated by the green fog.
After inhaling the green fog, they appeared to be dazed and shook their heads as if poisoned.
But the green fog was evidently potent, preventing them from breaking free.
Soon, beasts in the ravines, valleys, and caves had eyes glowing with green light and exuded a violent beastly aura.
"Roar!~~~"
"Howl!~~~"
Suddenly, the roars of thousands of beasts echoed across the valleys and peaks.
The roars reverberated throughout the mountain peaks, and the savage killing intent of the beasts rampaged throughout the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, soaring up to the sky—a terrifying spectacle.
Indeed, thousands of beasts across the mountain range suddenly roared collectively, driven by the call and command of the Beast Summoning Order activated by Fan Zong.
The Beast Summoning Order is one of the top ten artifacts in the Celestial Saint Realm, known for its astonishing power to execute cultivation techniques that allow it to release a thousand-mile-wide green fog, using the fog to hypnotize and drive beasts, transforming thousands into tools of slaughter.
Hidden Valley.
Leng Ying, Yuan Yuxi, Chen Xinyi, and the others were startled when they heard the sudden chorus of beast roars from the mountains.
Leng Ying frowned as he looked at Yuan Yuxi and the others and said, "There seems to be something happening outside!"
"Should we head out of the valley to see what's going on?" Yuan Yuxi asked.
Leng Ying shook his head cautiously and said, "No, the outside situation is unclear, and we shouldn't rush out. We need to be very vigilant."
Leng Ying suddenly had a bad feeling; beasts and their roars in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range weren't strange, but the sudden roar was too peculiar.
"Yuxi, go inside and check if Lin Fei has begun channeling power to Yun Yue and the others. If he hasn't started, tell him about the changes outside and ask what we should do next," Leng Ying directed Yuan Yuxi.
He added, "If they've already begun cultivating, don't disturb him."
Leng Ying knew when Lin Fei was channeling power for enhancement, undivided focus was crucial, and any disturbance could be detrimental, not only to Lin Fei but also to Qin Yunyue, Qin Zimo, and the others receiving the power.
Yuan Yuxi agreed and entered the cave.
Inside the cave, Yuan Yuxi saw Lin Fei and Qin Yunyue, Qin Zimo, Qian Songyixue, all seated in a circle ten meters across, hands connected.
Each person emitted a golden glow, while waves of energy continuously flowed from Lin Fei's hands.
From Lin Fei, Qin Yunyue, Qin Zimo, Qian Songyixue, Li Ruyan, Zhang Ruoxi, and others formed the circle, an impressive energy presence permeated.
Witnessing this, Yuan Yuxi silently withdrew from the cave.
"Yuxi, did Lin Fei and the others start secluded cultivation?" Leng Ying asked, seeing Yuan Yuxi emerge alone and knowing the answer.
Yuan Yuxi nodded, "Yes, they've already begun cultivating, and I didn't disturb them."
"Hmm, the beast roars outside might also be due to beasts battling amongst themselves; as long as they don't appear in this valley, there's no need to worry," Leng Ying calmly said.
Yet, just as his voice fell, a thunderous sound rolled over, as if a thousand troops and horses were charging, making the valley ground tremble.
More concerning for Leng Ying, Yuan Yuxi, Qingcheng, and the others was the clear sense of the approaching thunderous sound—the distance to the valley closing in.
They looked up to see clouds of dust rising from the surrounding peaks, with thousands of wolves boasting long manes and larger and fiercer than leopards; ten-meter-tall gorillas like little mountains leaping hundreds of meters; and giant tigers with huge fanged mouths...
They came rushing towards the valley like a flood, with a ferocious beastly aura blanketing the sky—suffocating!
