Chapter 70 Destruction
After Lin Changqing helped clear out the monsters in front of his father and second uncle, the surrounding monsters continued to replenish, and they came in waves like a tide.
Lin Changqing took the time to look at the situation of the tribesmen around him. Many of them had already used talismans, such as fireball talismans, wind blade talismans, etc. Fortunately, the magic circle had not yet opened a hole to let the monsters in, so everyone's safety was guaranteed.
The high-intensity battle lasted for an unknown amount of time. Lin Changqing had already taken two recovery pills, as had his father and second uncle. He also consumed a lot of the attack talismans that his mother had given him.
But he could only hold on, and it felt like a long time had passed before he could finally feel that the number of monsters began to decrease. Only then did Lin Changqing take the time to observe the battle situation of the three foundation-building monks in the family.
The clan leader approached the edge of the magic circle, and the surrounding first-level monsters consciously left their battle area for fear of being affected.
The one currently fighting with the clan leader is a Swift Thunder Leopard. The good news is that the clan leader has absolutely suppressed the Swift Thunder Leopard which is only at the late second stage of cultivation.
This thing is very fast, and you have to be careful of the lightning spells that come out of its mouth.
This kind of monster is very good as a spirit pet. It is a monster with both wind and thunder attributes. It can fight and run and has great potential. However, this kind of monster that has grown up cannot be tamed and can only be killed.
This Swift Thunder Leopard already had three or four wounds on its body. Although none of them were fatal, the blood had dyed half of its body red, and its speed had slowed down. It was only a matter of time before it was beheaded.
On the other side, Grandpa and Fourteenth Uncle joined forces to deal with a red giant tiger in the middle stage of the second stage. This should be the very famous Flame Giant Tiger!
This monster is much larger than the Swift Thunder Leopard. It is about 12 or 13 feet long and about 2 meters tall. It is red all over, so it is also called the Blood Flame Giant Tiger. It looks extremely powerful.
Fortunately, grandpa and fourteenth uncle are helping. Two foundation-building monks are besieging it, and the situation is pretty good. The giant tiger also has a few wounds on its body. It should only be a matter of time before it is captured.
Seeing this, Lin Changqing wanted to summon out Babai and use a Gengjin divine thunder on the giant tiger to satisfy his desire. But after thinking about it, he decided to give up. Keeping a low profile is the best thing to do now.
The situation was similar in other places on the city wall, except that the area defended by the independent cultivators was a little chaotic. Fortunately, there were Foundation Establishment disciples from Qingyun Sect there to help deal with the second-level monsters, so the situation was still under control.
Soon the situation was over after the clan leader suddenly summoned a flying sword and attacked the Swift Thunder Leopard. If I was not mistaken, the flying sword that attacked the Swift Thunder Leopard should be the Qingming Sword, a second-grade top-grade flying sword that the clan leader bought at the Wanbao Pavilion last time.
It seems that the clan leader treasures this flying sword very much! He was reluctant to use it in the battle just now, and used it as a trump card.
Since the clan leader was free, the flaming tiger was doomed as well, so soon all the second-level monsters in the defense area that the clan was responsible for were killed.
The three foundation-building monks began to help the tribe members to clear out these first-level monsters, and the speed was much faster. In this way, they accumulated a lot of advantages, which grew like a snowball.
Soon, more than half of the first-level monsters in the area that the family was responsible for defending were gone.
The three of them now sped up their killing speed again, preparing to quickly clear out the monsters in their own area and then go to the city wall to support the areas in need.
After finally clearing out the monsters in the family's defense zone, the Qi Refining cultivators were so tired that they leaned on the city wall to rest, but the family's three Foundation Establishment cultivators only recovered slightly.
He started to support the foundation-building monks who were still fighting nearby, and they quickly achieved victory by working together.
Then these free foundation-building monks went to provide support in other places. Before long, all the battles on the city walls were over.
In this way, the vanguard of this beast tide was completely destroyed under the walls of Red Maple Fortress.
At this time, all the monks standing on the city wall couldn't help but let out earth-shaking cheers, which continued until everyone had vented the suppressed emotions in their hearts.
The next step is to send people down to clean up the corpses of the monsters. Everyone cleans up the corpses of the monsters in their own defense area. It is simple and clear.
Those monsters that were killed together would discuss and distribute them among themselves. The monks all had good memories, and they remembered clearly which ones they killed and which ones they didn't. So there wouldn't be any big disputes.
Lin Changqing and the other two also went down to collect their spoils.
After a long time of effort, they finally packed up. After counting, the second uncle said happily: "It is probably equivalent to the harvest of about ten days of monster hunting last time. This is not bad. It won't be long before we have enough points to exchange for foundation-building pills."
My father also said: "The monster corpses I hunted last time were exchanged for a total of 5150 contribution points.
The three of us have 3090 points, plus the remaining points, now we have 5314 points. If we count the corpses of these monsters, it is almost enough to exchange for foundation-building pills. "It's a pity that we have to wait until we return to Qingyun City to exchange for foundation-building pills, otherwise maybe big brother can build a foundation here." Second uncle said regretfully.
My father shook his head and said, "You don't understand. This is to protect us. Otherwise, if the foundation-building pills are out there, it will be easy for others to covet them, and murder and robbery are common."
Lin Changqing also spoke up: "I also think what father said makes sense. It should be mainly for the protection of independent cultivators!"
At this time, Grandpa came over, glanced at the three of them, and said, "It seems that everything is fine. I feel relieved."
Lin Changqing said: "This time it was a little easier than I expected."
Grandpa shook his head and said to Lin Changqing: "This is just the front part. We don't know how much more there is behind. Qing'er, you must not be careless, understand?"
Lin Changqing said seriously: "I am most afraid of death. I will not be careless. I also have to protect my father and second uncle and bring them home safely!"
The second uncle laughed: "You said you were afraid of death and wanted to protect us, you are bragging!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "pa" sound and my second uncle was slapped lightly on the head by my grandfather.
"Shut your mouth, Qing'er. He is much more reliable than you. If there is danger, get closer to him. He can save your lives. Do you understand?" Grandpa said seriously.
"Are they those purple scorpions?" The second uncle touched the place where he was beaten.
The grandfather glanced at his two sons and said seriously, "Don't ask any more questions. Just remember what I just said."
My father and second uncle agreed. In this situation, my second uncle didn't dare to joke anymore. It would be so embarrassing if he was beaten by my father again.
Starting today, half of the tribesmen will be stationed here for defense. Each stationing time will be one day and one night. You should go back and rest first! Come back at this time tomorrow to change shifts.
The three of them left the defensive area of the city wall. Father and second uncle went to exchange the monster corpses for contribution points. Lin Changqing took a monster corpse and went back to his residence first.
After returning to his residence, Lin Changqing brewed a pot of green jade spiritual tea, sipped it slowly, and recalled the battle scene just now, to see if he had done anything wrong, or if there was anything that could be improved.
It was the first time to face the beast tide, so I couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and this time the monsters' attack on the city was so sudden.
There is another very important situation, that is, this time the Red Maple Fortress did not choose to open some holes to let the monsters in, thereby reducing the pressure of the magic circle, but consumed a large amount of spirit stones and forcibly held on.
It should be because it is still the early stage of the beast tide, and the monks who are guarding the fortress do not want to suffer too many casualties. After all, there are only more than a thousand monks here. If the casualties are too great, this fortress may not be able to be defended.
After thinking it over, Lin Changqing felt that for this kind of city defense battle, he should release the Amethyst Scorpions in advance next time. Then they can be evenly distributed around the three people in stealth mode, so they won't be afraid of being approached.
Thinking of the Amethyst Scorpion, I just asked for the corpse of a monster, which is to be used to feed the Amethyst Scorpion, and the loess crystal I just bought, I will feed them together later!
In fact, Lin Changqing also thought about feeding the Purple Crystal Scorpions with Hundred Flowers Intoxicating Wine, but considering that they had just advanced to the next level not long ago and had not chewed on the first-grade mid-quality spirit crystals much, it would be too much of a hasty move to rush to raise their level.
Then I gave up the idea. After all, the situation was not so critical that I could just ignore it. Let's wait a little longer!
The same goes for the first grade. It’s not that we don’t want to improve their strength, but continuously improving their rank will consume their own potential.
Doing so will definitely affect their continued advancement in the future, especially when they are promoted from level one to level two, the difficulty will definitely increase a lot.
The only one who is suitable for promotion to the second level now is the three-color deer, but this guy was not raised by Lin Changqing since he was a child, and he has just been subdued. Lin Changqing is afraid of losing control and dare not give it the resources for promotion.
Lin Changqing believed that taking five times the amount of Hundred Flowers Intoxicating Wine for the Qi Refining stage would definitely help a first-level peak spirit beast break through to the second level, but unfortunately there was no suitable spirit beast at the moment.
Forget it, don't think too much about it. Now that I've finished the spiritual tea, I might as well cut up the monster's body and feed it to the purple crystal scorpion! Throw in the yellow earth crystal for them to chew on.
