Chapter 493: Small Beast Tide, Heavenly Eye Demon King
Lin Fan looked surprised and looked around curiously. He found that although there were more monsters around, they were all monsters of lower realms.
With their Nascent Soul cultivation, they could easily kill them.
He really didn't know where Zhen Zhong's worry came from at the moment.
"Daoyou Zhen, where does the danger in the Ten Thousand Monsters Valley come from?" Lin Fan asked curiously.
Hearing this, Chen Xuan, Ma Qian, and Chen Zhong nodded.
Zhen Zhong frowned and pointed at the monsters around him who were leisurely and said, "Daoyou, the reason why the Ten Thousand Monsters Valley in Hongyu Cave is dangerous is because of these low-level monsters. Don't look at them now. They don't seem to pose any threat. But once a beast tide forms, even Yuanying cultivators like us may perish. We'd better pray that this doesn't happen."
Everyone's heart sank when he said this.
An indescribable feeling of depression has emerged from the depths of everyone's heart.
Lin Fan also frowned, but he knew that being nervous, panicked, and afraid at the moment would not help at all.
It would be better to think about how to safely pass through the Ten Thousand Monsters Valley next.
"Fellow Daoists, we are already in the Ten Thousand Monsters Valley, and the only way out is to leave alive." Lin Fan said calmly.
At this moment, Zhen Zhong and others were awakened instantly, and they all looked at Lin Fan and smiled awkwardly.
"Fellow Daoist Lin is right. Next, the five of us should work together."
"That being said, the danger in the Ten Thousand Monsters Valley is not only from the beast tide. For us, those extremely powerful monsters will also pose a threat to us."
"That's right. If we get into trouble and need to break out separately, we'd better agree on a gathering place."
As expected of a Yuanying stage cultivator, he said the key to the problem in just a few words.
At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to Zhen Zhong again.
Zhen Zhong pondered for a moment, took out four jade slips, and handed them to Lin Fan and the other four.
"Fellow Daoists, if we really encounter a situation where we have to break out of the encirclement separately, we should not dwell on it. We can just use our own means of escape. Our goal is the Qingling Tea. It would be better for us to simply meet in the Dead Wood Sea of the West Sea Cave Heaven."
"On the map in your hands, I have marked several relatively safe routes for your reference."
Lin Fan and the other four solemnly took the jade slip and nodded, and put it away properly.
Next, everyone made several emergency plans in detail before continuing to move forward.
But at this moment, no one dared to be careless.
After restraining their breath, they walked silently in the Ten Thousand Monsters Valley.
Along the way, with Zhen Zhong leading the way, everyone was not worried about getting lost.
However, the more Lin Fan walked, the more uneasy he felt.
After waiting for only five days, Lin Fan, who was following everyone, suddenly stopped.
With a solemn look, he looked at a bush in the distance.
There, it seemed to be a brocade with flowers, lush low bushes, and vigorous weeds.
But Lin Fan always felt that an indescribable sense of crisis was brewing in the bushes.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, what are you doing?"
Chen Xuan was curious and stood side by side with Lin Fan.
He also looked at the bushes in the distance.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, didn't you find that there was something unusual in the bushes in the distance?"
"This..."
Chen Xuan was extremely surprised.
He urged his mind to quickly fall towards the bushes in the distance.
The next moment, his expression turned pale in an instant.
"These... are all low-level monsters. Is it possible that a beast tide is forming where we are?" Chen Xuan said nervously.
Soon, Zhen Zhong, Chen Zhong, and Ma Qian also rushed over quickly.
Zhen Zhong looked at the bushes in the distance with a solemn look, and after carefully observing them for a while, he couldn't help but look horrified.
"This is a small beast tide. Fellow Taoists, we should not stay here for long. Let's leave quickly before the small beast tide breaks out completely."
After Zhen Zhong finished speaking, a light red flying sword appeared at his feet.
Huh!
As a residual image quickly disappeared into the void, the light red flying sword rushed out more than ten feet away.
Seeing this, Lin Fan and the other four also rushed towards the distance.
But they didn't know that not long after they left, the bushes in the distance made a sharp rumbling sound.
A dust-gray monster over a hundred feet in size had stood up.
Its huge body was like a small mountain, and a bowl-sized eye between its eyebrows attracted people's attention.
"These humans are really alert. They ran away before I launched the small beast tide. However, since they have entered my territory, how can I let these human cultivators leave? How much blood food will I keep them all as my blood food?"
The earth-gray monster smiled grimly, raised its head, and let out a piercing and long scream into the void.
Woo...
The low sound continued. In just a moment, the monsters within a radius of hundreds of miles suddenly became agitated and rushed madly in the direction where Lin Fan and others fled.
Soon, the number of these monsters gathered more and more.
From the original hundreds, it became thousands. From thousands to tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands...
As time went on, the number of low-level monsters continued to increase rapidly.
In the Ten Thousand Monsters Valley, a dark ocean formed.
With a bang, it was swept by a demonic wind and surrounded Lin Fan and others.
Seeing this, the people who were fleeing turned pale.
"So many monsters have emerged at once. It seems that a small beast tide has formed. Fellow Taoists, we have no choice but to keep moving forward and fight our way out."
Zhen Zhong's expression became extremely ugly.
While speaking, he quickly identified the direction and rushed forward with everyone.
But there were too many earth-level monsters around the five people.
They were densely packed, like ants.
When they rushed over frantically, they roared at the five people fiercely and burst out their most powerful attacks.
Even though Lin Fan and the other five were cultivators in the early stage of the Nascent Soul, they felt their scalps go numb when facing the endless monsters.
Although they kept killing the monsters nearby, the low-level monsters in the Ten Thousand Monsters Valley seemed endless. After killing one batch, another batch would soon come.
For a full hour, the five old monsters in the Nascent Soul stage not only failed to repel the small beast tide, but surprisingly, they were still spinning in the same place.
"Something is wrong. If it is just a small beast tide, with our Nascent Soul stage, even if we cannot completely escape, we should at least move forward for a distance. Why are we standing here? Is there a powerful monster lurking around?"
Lin Fan thought quickly for a while, and his clear eyes were fully activated.
To his disappointment, there was nothing unusual except for the dense low-level monsters around.
But the strong sense of crisis in Lin Fan's heart became more and more obvious.
"As a Nascent Soul cultivator, I have a clear sense of fortune and disaster. This fear in my heart is absolutely groundless. There are definitely powerful Nascent Soul monsters lurking around."
Lin Fan was shocked when he thought of this.
Taking advantage of others' inattention, he quietly scattered the soul-falling sand around.
Be careful to prevent sneak attacks from enemies hiding in the dark.
After doing this, Lin Fan continued to activate his natal sword without any expression, and cleaned up the low-level monsters with Zhen Zhong and others.
After only one day, the small beast tide still did not recede.
The low-level monster corpses piled up in front of Lin Fan and the other five were like a small mountain.
Lin Fan and the other five also consumed a lot of spiritual power due to the continuous battle.
Just as everyone was planning to take turns to attack, a cold male voice suddenly sounded from the void.
"You have killed so many of my people, fellow Taoists, you should stay."
The pupils of Lin Fan and the other five shrank at the same time, and Zhen Zhong was the first to react.
"Not good, it seems to be the voice of the Heavenly Eye Demon King!"
