Chapter 289 The Beast Tide Arrives
Upon hearing this, Ye Ru turned his gaze to Yao Yao, a glimmer of hope appearing in his eyes.
"any solution?"
This beast tide was simply terrifying. Ye Ru knew that even with his current strength, he couldn't withstand it, let alone the soldiers of the Northern Border Army.
"It seems that this move may not have been a spontaneously generated beast tide, but rather a deliberate scheme."
Xun Ao's eyes flashed with thought, as if he knew something, and then he said:
“Young brother, tell Lord Chen Tianjian what exactly is going on with these beast tides, and their characteristics, especially their eyes. As far as I know, this demon race has an ability to amplify and control the power of ordinary wild beasts.”
"Okay, I'll ask right away."
The situation was urgent, and Ye Ru didn't have time to think much before immediately sending a message to Chen Tianjian.
A moment later, Hongyin's voice rang out: "For some reason, the bodies of these beasts have doubled in size, and they are extremely ferocious, without any order whatsoever. In particular, their eyes are filled with a fierce look."
"Just as I suspected, this was a treacherous scheme by these men in black."
Xun Ao narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice. Back then, there were two people chasing him, but now there's still one, making it hard not to wonder where the other person is. And now, with the beast tide starting, it's probably the work of that other man in black.
"I have now recovered my dragon energy. If I combine my dragon energy with Uncle Xun Ao's dragon energy, we might be able to suppress the beast tide. Then you and Lord Chen will only need to find that black-robed man and kill him."
Yao Yao gently bit her red lips with her pearly teeth, and finally looked at Ye Rudao with her big eyes.
"How long can you hold out at most?"
Ye Ru frowned and asked. If Yao Yao and Xun Ao persisted for too long, and he couldn't find the only black-robed man, not only would the soldiers of the Northern Army be in danger, but Yao Yao and the others would also be in danger.
"About three hours. If you haven't found it by then..."
Yao Yao pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke.
"Then let's not delay and set off immediately."
Upon hearing this, Ye Ru nodded. If it were three hours, there would be no chance of winning.
It's quite a sad story. After defeating a demon lord and tens of thousands of demon warriors, they almost lost to some wild beasts.
Due to the tight schedule, Ye Ru and his two companions immediately headed towards the northern border.
……
In the North.
The entire Northern Army was mobilized, and a murderous aura began to spread in all directions.
Their faces were solemn, and they looked on with unwavering determination, gazing into the distance at the dark, cloud-like expanse that made them feel a profound sense of pressure.
"Damn it, what's wrong with these beasts? How did they suddenly become so ferocious?"
Chen Tianjian's eyes were filled with coldness as he looked at the thousands of troops rushing towards him in the distance. He slammed his fist on the table and said angrily.
Below, Guan Mou and others were present. They were the most elite generals of the Northern Army, and they all looked helpless.
"Thirty years ago, the Southern Territory also encountered a beast tide. At that time, almost the entire defense line of the Southern Territory was completely destroyed, which allowed the demons of the Southern Territory to take advantage of the situation and seize several of our states. I never expected that we would encounter it again this time."
A solemn expression also appeared on Guo Ku's face, and his eyes flickered slightly, as if he still felt lingering fear about what happened back then.
"No matter what, this time the beast tide is coming in fiercely. We must resist this beast tide and not let it end up like what happened in the Southern Territory back then."
Chen Tianjian waved his hand, his armor rustling. He then stood outside the military tent, looking at the raging sandstorm in the distance, his face solemn. Finally, he shouted sharply:
"Enter Level One Alert! Archers, shield bearers, spearmen, prepare!"
"Yes!"
A neat and unified sound rang out here, and countless soldiers, with resolute confidence, quickly formed ranks.
"Second team, Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation, set up!"
Chen Tianjian pondered for a moment, then spoke again.
"Yes!"
Some soldiers quickly formed a nine-palace eight-trigram formation, their eyes fixed on the distance, resembling the formation of the nine-palace eight-trigram, and quickly arranged themselves.
At this moment, the wild beasts were already close enough to reach the soldiers.
"Archers release their arrows!"
As soon as Chen Tianjian gave his first command, countless archers unleashed arrows carrying immense power, raining down like a torrential downpour, fiercely blasting towards the wild beasts. In an instant, the sounds of battle from the white-haired archer stirred a surge of youthful passion in everyone present.
Although the rain of arrows only briefly halted the beasts' attack, they immediately charged forward again, as if the arrows had become less effective.
With the help of this power, some wild beasts were already close to the Northern Army camp.
Boom boom boom!
At this moment, the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation also showed its power. Powerful beams of light, like pillars of light, enveloped the beasts. In just a moment, a Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation was formed above the beasts. The formation was filled with killing intent and finally released countless sword lights. In just a short while, hundreds of beasts were killed.
Each blast of these sword lights felled many wild beasts, clearly demonstrating that the Northern Army, as the defensive force of the North, was not something that ordinary beasts could easily defeat.
"Long gunners, attack!"
Seeing that the beast was almost within reach, Chen Tianjian's expression suddenly became much more fierce.
boom!
Countless soldiers, wielding spears and carrying immense strength, charged directly at the wild beasts. The clash between man and beast, the sharp blades slicing through the animals, produced a muffled thud.
"Kill them, kill them! The Northern Army is known as the best of the four major armies, but it seems they're nothing special now."
As these beasts attacked, a man in black robes hid behind them. He watched the battle with a smile on his lips, but then, as if sensing something, he suddenly raised his head.
"Could it be that Yao Fen failed his mission? Why is it such a vast dragon energy?"
The man in black robes murmured.
"kill!"
With the Northern Army's defenses in place, the horde of ferocious beasts was kept out and unable to enter the main camp. However, the outside had become a bloodbath, with countless monsters and warriors' corpses scattered on the ground, a truly tragic sight, and a pungent, bloody stench permeated the air.
boom!
Chen Tianjian also killed a beast with a single sword strike. Then, with a wave of his hand, a scroll flew into the sky, slowly unfurled, and finally condensed into a mountain, which fiercely suppressed the beasts!
