Chapter 193 The Danger is Relieved
Zhou Chen took out a few pills and swallowed them. The internal energy in his body was instantly restored. Looking at the monsters that kept rushing towards him, his freezing range began to shrink. The original radius of one hundred meters soon became seventy or sixty meters.
And those frozen monsters were smashed into pieces by the monsters rushing up from behind, and immediately shattered into countless ice chips. Seeing this, Zhou Chen was helpless and thought that he was the first one to be punished. He was going to be killed by the monsters' lives.
Everyone on the city wall couldn't help but cheer after seeing Zhou Chen's skills, but they were also worried for him after seeing Zhou Chen being targeted by monsters.
Seeing that the effect of this move was gradually weakening, Zhou Chen ordered everyone to retreat back into the city, while he stepped into the air and rose from the ground. The monsters were helpless when they saw this, because most of them could not fly.
Except for a small number of birds or monsters that have mastered the ability to fly, a large number of monsters began to attack other Demon Suppression Guards. At the same time, Zhou Chen's internal energy was instantly reduced by four hundred years.
At the same time, the moisture in the air quickly condensed into flying swords. From a distance, Zhou Chen could be seen surrounded by densely packed flying swords.
The monsters flying towards Zhou Chen were also frightened when they saw this and flew in the opposite direction.
"Huh, you want to run? Can you run away?"
Then he lightly waved his right hand, and countless flying swords flew towards them, instantly killing all the flying monsters. Then he slapped the flying swords in the sky under his feet and shot them towards the ground like rain.
In a short period of time, the monsters suffered heavy casualties. This was not an indiscriminate attack. The sword rain would avoid places where the Demon Suppression Guards were present. In other words, the monsters within three meters of the Demon Suppression Guards were not killed by the sword rain. However, they were frightened by the sudden sword rain and were easily killed by the Demon Suppression Guards.
In an instant, a large number of monsters outside the gate were killed or injured. Standing on Cheng's head, you can see a lot of corpses lying on the ground.
Seeing this, the other monsters didn't dare to get any closer. Since Demon King Zhentian and the other big monsters hadn't given the order to retreat, they didn't dare to leave at will. They just stood in the distance and watched quietly.
Seeing this, several big monsters who were fighting with Qinglong and his men shouted angrily, "What are you still standing there for? Come on, you have to kill him even if it costs your life."
At this moment, a terrifying demonic aura was spreading from overhead. Qinglong and several other big demons in the air felt their hearts tighten. Their figures standing in the air dropped more than ten meters at this moment, and Zhou Chen fell directly to the ground.
Then the Sky-Zhen Demon King descended from the clouds and stood in front of the demons. Qinglong and his companions quickly retreated, as they had no qualifications to fight against this big demon.
The demonic energy released alone was enough to make them breathless. At this time, Demon King Zhentian had several more sword wounds on his body, and there were traces of sword energy emanating from the wounds. With his physique, even if he was seriously injured, he could heal in a very short time.
However, the sword energy on his wound was preventing it from healing. At this moment, Zhen Nantian also fell from the clouds. He was seen standing in front of Qinglong and others with his feet in the void.
Compared to the Demon King Zhentian, Zhen Nantian had no wounds on his body. On the surface, he had the upper hand in the previous fight.
Several big monsters behind the Demon King Zhentian wanted to step forward and attack, but were scolded back by him, "Hmph, I didn't expect your strength to have improved so much. You win this time, let's go."
The monsters behind him wanted to say something, but the Demon King Zhentian didn't care about them and directly tore through the void and left.
The demon king had already left, so there was no point for these little demons to stay here, so he led the other demons away.
Seeing that they wanted to leave, Qinglong quickly said, "Sir, should we chase them and wipe them out?"
Before Zhen Nantian could answer, he spat out a mouthful of blood. Qinglong and his companions were shocked. Fortunately, they were far away and facing away from Wu'an County, so the many warriors guarding the city wall did not see this scene. Qinglong wanted to help him, but Zhen Nantian waved his hand and refused, "Go back first." Then he turned into a stream of light and left. Qinglong and his companions returned to the Demon Suppression Division with ugly faces.
The monster retreated temporarily, and the city lord quickly took away the official seal above his head. The moment he took the seal, his body swayed and he almost fell from the air. Fortunately, he stabilized his body at the critical moment.
At this moment, Zhou Chen also took Leng Yiyao back to the city. He knew that this matter was only solved temporarily. The Zhentian Demon King was not dead yet and would definitely come back again later.
"Yiyao, try not to go out in the future."
After the people from the Demon Suppression Division evacuated, all the warriors on the city walls rushed out of the city like crazy. At this time, the monsters retreated outside the city and left behind a large number of monster corpses. These things were rare supplements for them. On weekdays, they were short of money and rarely had a meal. Now that they had a chance, they would naturally fight for their lives to get them.
However, they did not have storage rings, so they could not take much. At most, some people had a storage bag and could take a little more, but the storage bag had limited space and could not hold much. In the end, most of these things fell into the hands of the authorities.
The price of monster meat will not suffer much loss because of this. After all, this world is extremely vast. They have various channels to dispose of these corpses, and they have ways to preserve them for a long time, not to mention the price.
Although the monsters have retreated, there are still people who have to stand guard on the city walls. Naturally, this kind of thing is not the turn of the people from the Demon Suppression Division. After the bloody fight just now, the Demon Suppression Division suffered heavy losses. Now all of them have returned to the Demon Suppression Division to recuperate, and they don't even have to patrol the streets.
Zhou Chen was not in a hurry to return to the Demon Suppression Bureau, but returned home. He was still the one who gained the most this time. At this time, a large number of demon patterns had been stored in his system, so many that he could not even keep up with them all.
The people in the city also had a rare chance to eat meat, the meat of monsters, and it was enough to fill them up. Everyone ate with their mouths full of oil.
Ordinary people are not like warriors. They can only eat ninth-grade beast meat at best. If it is one level higher, they will not be able to withstand the energy contained in the meat.
After Qinglong and the others returned to the Demon Suppression Division, they immediately went to Zhennantian. Zhennantian also informed them of today's situation. Although the Zhentian Demon King had only half a foot into the third rank, his strength was already incomparable. In addition, he possessed extremely powerful secret techniques. Zhennantian was able to injure him with the help of Yue and the Yin-Yang Mirror, but he also suffered serious internal injuries.
After explaining some things, Zhen Nantian began to retreat to heal his wounds. At the same time, he told them to be careful outside the city during this period of time. The Zhentian Demon King was injured by sword energy and would not come out for the time being, but the demons under his command would definitely not give up and would definitely come out to cause trouble.
They didn't have any better solution to this problem, so they could only take it one step at a time. As for Yue, she returned to Zhou Chen on her own, and Zhen Nantian didn't say anything.
However, when Zhen Nantian was in seclusion, he did chat with Qinglong alone for a while.
On the second day, all members of the Demon Suppression Division gathered together, even those who were injured as long as they were not dead and could get out of bed. Today, Qinglong commended them for their performance yesterday and told them about the reward.
Their reward is that they can choose a martial art from the library today, and the level of the martial art has reached the Xuan level. However, they can only choose martial arts below the middle level of the Xuan level. Even so, everyone is extremely excited.
