Chapter 1012 Strength Gap
Chapter 1012 Strength Gap
When the two arrived, there were already more than twenty figures in the City Lord's Mansion.
"Elder Lu, Elder Lin, you are here."
The other three elders of the Haoyue Sect who came to Shigu City together arrived first. After seeing Lu Luan and the other person, they walked over.
Lu Luan greeted them one by one.
The five people from the same sect instinctively gathered together on someone else's territory.
"Friend Lu, Friend Lin," a middle-aged man and a woman came over and greeted them.
"Fellow Daoist Yuanyun, Fellow Daoist Yaoguang."
Lu Luan and the other man smiled and bowed.
These two people are powerful men from the mermaid tribe who came here to support. They already knew each other when they came to Sanyuanmen to select disciples and visited the mermaid tribe on the way.
The mermaids were not very powerful, with only five cultivators in the early Nascent Soul stage. In terms of strength, they were not as strong as Yuan Lingfeng. However, in terms of foundation, the mermaids were still better.
After a while, all the Nascent Soul cultivators in the city arrived.
Everyone was talking among themselves.
As an old man appeared, the scene suddenly became quiet.
"Elder Lin Yun."
"Greetings, Elder Lin Yun."
When they saw the old man coming, everyone bowed to him.
This Lin Yun is the fifth elder of the Lin family. He has reached the peak of the middle Nascent Soul stage. More importantly, he has opened up the space cave and can even save his life from the hands of ordinary late Nascent Soul masters.
He has a high prestige in the Lin family.
"My fellow Taoists, you're welcome."
Lin Yun waved his hand indifferently, and when his eyes swept over everyone, he lingered on Lu Luan for a while.
Lin Yun continued, "I called everyone here to tell you that the demon tribe has begun to attack. Hundreds of thousands of miles away, those demon soldiers and generals are now taking action and heading towards Qionghai Region."
"Is it finally here?"
"Without the strange soil, the demon tribe is really daring."
Although everyone was surprised, they had already prepared for battle and were not panicked.
I'm just a little confused about the rash attack on the demon clan.
"Too fast." The war came much earlier than Lu Luan thought.
"Elder Lin Yun, are the demons launching an all-out attack on the Qionghai area, or are they focusing on one direction?" Lu Luan asked.
Everyone also turned their eyes to Lin Yun. If it was one direction, then they would probably have to go to other places for support.
Lin Yun said slowly: "Attack on all fronts. The demons outside Qionghai are forming a line and approaching the fairyland."
The demons have no choice. If they concentrate their strength to attack one place, they will easily be caught by the immortal cities with the ability to ascend, and then surrounded and formed a large formation. As long as they are trapped in the formation, they will be strangled to death by the monks in the formation.
If there is enough strange soil, this threat will be greatly reduced, and the fairy city in front of it can be easily destroyed. If the human race wants to resist, they have to use their flesh and blood to stop it, resulting in heavy casualties.
Now they are attacking on all fronts. Since the human race does not have enough immortal cities with the ability to ascend, they are unable to fly to the rear of the demon race to cut off their retreat and form a large formation. They can only retreat and not advance.
Lin Yun waved his hand, and a black and white bead appeared in front of him. A glow flowed on the surface of the bead, and a map of the outside of Qionghai appeared.
In this scene, there are more than four hundred blue light spots moving.
Lin Yun said with his hands behind his back: "These are the lord monsters, a total of 471, of which 24 are in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul. They are not a big disadvantage for us."
There are now three mid-Nascent Soul cultivators, twenty-nine early-Nascent Soul cultivators, and sixteen immortal beasts with Nascent Soul strength in Shigu City.
Lin Yun looked calm. Although there seemed to be a huge gap in strength between him and the demon clan, he could still defend it with the advantage of the fairy city.
After hearing the number, the monks fell silent, feeling as if a dark cloud was pressing down on their heads.
"How come there are so many all of a sudden?"
"Weren't there less than 300 of them half a month ago?"
People around started murmuring.
There are nearly five hundred lord monsters.
Lin Hong, who was beside Lin Yun, explained, "The Green-backed Ape Tribe has sent over 200 more Lord Monsters."
Of course, the more than 200 new lord monsters are not all blue-backed apes. A considerable number of them are from the races controlled by the blue-backed ape tribe.
"With so many monsters, Elder Lin, Stonebone City will definitely not be able to be defended. Once the surrounding cities fall, the monsters will be able to march straight in, penetrate behind us, and cut off our retreat."
Someone said very seriously that if the demons attacked from behind, the space passage behind would be completely destroyed. Their Nascent Soul cultivators might have a chance to escape, but those who helped activate the formation to resist in the city would all die here.
Without enough cultivators to activate the Immortal City's great formation, the defense lines behind it would be as weak as paper and vulnerable to any attack.
Lin Yun said: "Fellow Daoists, don't worry about this. If one of the four great immortal cities that my Lin family is responsible for is breached, everyone will immediately retreat to the next line of defense."
"So best."
Hearing the conditions for retreat, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
There are seven lines of defense in the Qionghai area. If the demon clan did not have the strange soil, by the time they reached the seventh line of defense step by step, those demon soldiers, generals and monster lords would have been basically consumed.
"Elder Lin, how many monster lords are there in other places?" Yaoguang of the mermaid tribe asked.
Now Lin Yun is showing the number of monsters attacking Shigu Island. As for the situation of Bishui Island, Ganoderma Island, etc., no one knows.
Lin Yun's eyes turned cold and he warned, "Everyone, just do your own thing. It's better not to ask about the situation in other places. From now on, no one is allowed to leave the City Lord's Mansion. Stay here and wait for my orders."
"this...."
Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke.
“That’s really harsh.”
Lu Luan said silently in his heart, although it was a bit ruthless, he also understood that people knowing too much might not be a good thing for the entire war situation. In such a large-scale war, in order to achieve better results, Kunlun would choose to abandon some people.
"Elder Lin, how long will it take for the demons to get here?"
Lu Luan asked.
"About a month."
Most of those demon soldiers and generals were at the foundation-building stage, and the distance was too far. Even if there were other powerful demon beasts forming a formation to lead them, it would still take a lot of time for them to arrive.
During normal confrontations, they did not dare to get too close to the Qionghai area, for fear of being attacked from a distance by powerful human beings.
"Are there any late Nascent Soul strongmen coming to this sea area?"
"Among these monsters, could there be any monster lords whose strength is comparable to that of a late Nascent Soul cultivator?"
Many people were nervous because there were too many monsters. No one could remain calm in the face of such powerful strength.
"The monsters we are facing on Shigu Island do not have that kind of strength. If this sea area encounters an irreversible disadvantage, there will naturally be strong people coming to turn the tide. The strong people in the late Nascent Soul stage have space teleportation treasures refined by Kunlun in their hands. The speed is extremely fast. You don't have to worry about not being able to rescue in time."
Lin Yun explained patiently.
With the human race's Heavenly Dao monitoring, the movements of the powerful demon clan members cannot be hidden. Previously, the top demon beast lord in the Demon Realm who was hiding in the space treasure on the body of a little demon cultivator was discovered, but was killed in two moves by a group of powerful people from the Haoyue Sect.
