Chapter 274: Violet Palace Versus Level 3 Demon Beast
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was certain that the number of Level 2 demon beasts that had appeared this time far exceeded the number of Level 2 demon beasts that came on the first attack.
Moreover, there seemed to be more Level 2 demon beasts coming.
The Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Jiang family, the Jade Water Sword Pavilion, and the Bai family realized that it was their time to attack. “Everyone, use your Dharma artifacts to attack!”
Jiang Renyi gave the order.
At this moment, the demon beasts were less than 20 feet away from the city wall.
If they continued to use the Spirit Gathering Cannon or spells to attack, it would be too slow.
They had to resort to Dharma artifact attacks.
Only Dharma artifact attacks could cause the greatest damage to those demon beasts, and it was not easy to dodge.
Clang!
Buzz!
Slash!
Upon receiving the order, the cultivators immediately took out their Dharma artifacts.
In the blink of an eye, countless sword lights appeared in the sky.
The demon beasts at the front also used their own attack methods.
Spikes, poisonous fog, and boulders collided with the Dharma artifacts, creating a huge explosion.
Some demon beasts’ bodies were split into two by the Dharma artifacts, while some cultivators’ Dharma artifacts were struck down by the combined forces of several demon beasts.
Almost every moment, there would be demon beasts falling and cultivators spitting out blood because of losing their Dharma artifacts.
The war was now in full swing.
Jiang Renyi and the other Foundation Establishment cultivators could not stay idle anymore. They faced the Level 2 demon beasts that came.
Just like that.
The battle lasted for a few days.
After the demon beasts temporarily retreated, everyone on the east gate wall relaxed.
However, because of this tough battle, they were all exhausted.
Even Jiang Renyi and the other Foundation Establishment cultivators weren’t any better.
In the past few days, everyone had been in a state of high tension.
Coupled with the fact that they had to constantly fight demon beasts, the consumption of True Essence was several times or even dozens of times faster than before.
Fortunately, they had the city-protecting array to rely on, which could allow them to have some time to take pills and rest to recover their True Essence.
Otherwise, even Foundation Establishment cultivators would not be able to withstand such high-intensity battles continuously, let alone those Qi Refinement cultivators.
At this moment, looking across the city wall, almost all cultivators were lying, sitting, or leaning against each other.
Their clothes were tattered and they looked exhausted.
Many people had blood stains on their bodies, and there were even bone-deep wounds.
From the independent cultivators to the cultivators of the three forces, they now realized one thing—how terrifying an actual war was.
The skirmishes that took place among cultivators who had grudges against each other were nothing compared to this.
And this was only the first wave of demon beast attacks.
According to the rules summarized previously,
After this, the next wave of attacks might arrive in half a day or a day.
Indeed.
About io to 20 hours later.
The figures of demon beasts appeared in the distance again.
Everyone perked up and prepared to face the enemy.
This time, the demon beast attack was clearly much fiercer than before.
Before long, the demon beasts arrived outside Ancient Origin City.
One after another, attacks struck the Falling River Taiyi Array.
Even though the attacks of these demon beasts could not threaten the Falling River Taiyi Array, over time, it would still consume a certain amount of the array’s power.
The demon beasts obviously knew about this.
Therefore, they used these low-level demon beasts as cannon fodder.
Even if the low-level demon beasts could only weaken the power of the array by a little, it was still good.
Time passed bit by bit.
When the second wave ended and the third wave of demon beasts arrived, the Violet Palace cultivator, Jiang Rendao, who was in charge of overseeing the overall situation, suddenly rushed out of his cave abode and arrived above the city wall.
His gaze passed through the countless demon beasts in the distance and landed on a few huge figures at the back.
At some point, two figures had appeared beside him.
They were Li Fei of the Jade Water Sword Pavilion and Bai Zixuan of the Bai family.
Both of them had a solemn look on their faces.
Bai Zixuan said, “From the looks of it, when the next wave comes, a true Level
3 demon beast will probably appear.”
Jiang Rendao and Li Fei agreed. They nodded silently.
As expected.
When this wave of attacks ended, three huge figures appeared behind the densely packed demon beasts..
