Chapter 635: Skywind Beast Tide (Updated)
Hearing the reminder from Fairy Long Yue, everyone hurriedly responded with a smile, and then went together to deal with the body of the demon king on the sea.
Since leaving the sea area where they were looking for the "Silver Tiger Shark", what surprised everyone was that their luck suddenly improved. In just a dozen days, they had captured more than a dozen level 2 demon beasts, and now they have hunted down a demon king in the early stage of the Golden Core.
The materials on these demon beasts alone can be converted into spirit stones, which can add up to about 40,000 to 50,000 spirit stones. Even if everyone returns together now, it is still a good harvest.
Demon beasts are very good at hiding their bodies in the sea, especially those Golden Core demon kings who have already opened their intelligence. As long as they find that something is wrong, they will immediately escape into the deep sea. Even if they can find them, it is not so easy to capture them.
Not everyone in the monster hunting team that came to the outer sea could gain something when they returned. Every year, many unlucky cultivators would encounter high-level monsters that they could not deal with, or a large number of monsters gathered together, and leave their lives in the deep sea.
Through the contact with everyone these days, Song Qingming also got to know a little about the people who were traveling with him, and knew their respective names and identities.
The long-bearded old man who was at the fourth level of the Golden Core like Song Qingming, with the Taoist name Liuyun Zhenren, was a casual cultivator who had been in the Golden Core for more than 200 years. His cave was on a small island not far from Linggui Island.
The golden-armored man who liked to joke with everyone the most was named Luo Yulong, who was also a long-established casual cultivator.
Luo Yulong's cave was on Linggui Island. He often liked to team up with others to go deep into the outer sea to hunt monsters. He had known Fairy Longyue and Li Xianyun for a long time, and it was not the first time he went out to hunt monsters.
The other young scholar was named Wang Linchun, a guest elder of a small sect near Linggui Island. Although he had formed a golden elixir at about the same time as Song Qingming, his cultivation speed was much slower, and he had just broken through the third level of the golden elixir not long ago.
Fairy Longyue seemed more mysterious. Apart from her name, Song Qingming had not heard anyone else mention anything about her identity. He could only guess that she had a very good relationship with Li Xianyun and seemed to be a cultivator from a casual cultivation background.
Although everyone was a golden elixir cultivator, most of them were from casual cultivation backgrounds, and their daily lives were indeed more difficult than those of the golden elixir cultivators from the general large sects.
After packing up, seeing that this trip had achieved these results, the faces of the people traveling with them also showed a burst of joy, sweeping away the haze of finding nothing when searching for the "Silver Tiger Shark" before.
Especially Luo Yulong and Master Liuyun, who were doing their best to deal with the corpse of the monster, had already shown an excitement that was difficult to conceal on their faces.
Just when everyone had almost finished cleaning up the corpse of the monster, Fairy Long Yue, who was on guard in the air, suddenly caught a glimpse of a huge silver-white figure emerging from the sea in the distance, slowly approaching where everyone was.
"This is the Silver Tiger Shark!" Seeing that the monster king she had always wanted to hunt suddenly appeared in front of her, Fairy Long Yue couldn't hide her joy on her face and couldn't help shouting.
When everyone on the sea below heard Fairy Long Yue say the name "Silver Tiger Shark", they were also slightly stunned, and soon flew into the air together under the leadership of Li Xianyun.
"It's really the Silver Tiger Shark. I didn't expect that after searching for so long without any news, this guy actually took the initiative to deliver it to the door." After seeing the figure of the "Silver Tiger Shark", Li Xianyun's face was also happy, and he rarely showed an excited look.
Seeing that a more important target had appeared, Song Qingming and others no longer cared about the remaining monster king corpses below, and focused their attention on the "Silver Tiger Shark" not far away.
Fairy Long Yue took out the magic flag she had used before, cast a spell to cover everyone's figures, and said directly: "Fellow Daoist Song, the three of you set up the formation on the side, and fellow Daoist Li, fellow Daoist Luo and I will hold this monster head-on together.
As long as you can successfully kill this monster king, except for this monster king's golden elixir, all the materials obtained from this monster hunting will belong to the four of you."
"Please rest assured, Fairy Long, we will do our best!" Hearing that Fairy Long Yue offered such a generous condition in public, Luo Yulong and others were also encouraged.
Although it is not so easy to kill a monster king in the late golden elixir stage, if you can really succeed, you can easily get more than 10,000 spiritual objects per person, which is not an opportunity that can be obtained at any time.
Everyone hid their figures with the flag in Fairy Long Yue's hand. After waiting for a while, the "Silver Tiger Shark" finally slowly wandered to the corpse of the golden elixir monster below.
Just as the "Silver Tiger Shark" emerged with a tall head, intending to devour the body of the Jindan monster, a sword light with extremely powerful power and a hint of sword intent suddenly slashed out from the air, heading straight for his huge white head.
Seeing someone attacking, the "Silver Tiger Shark" immediately spit out a shield magic weapon made of animal skin to block in front of himself, trying to block the dangerous attack that was close at hand.
With a "bang", the sword light touched the top of the shield in front of the "Silver Tiger Shark", and the shield magic weapon was immediately knocked aside.
Before the "Silver Tiger Shark" took back the magic weapon, three golden lights in the air shot directly into the sea, turning into several golden rays that trapped the huge body of the monster king.
"Haha! Fellow Taoists have done a good job, it's our turn!"
With a hearty laugh, Luo Yunlong and Fairy Long Yue, holding a huge iron hammer magic weapon, rushed towards the "Silver Tiger Shark" below from the left and right.
Seeing so many Jindan cultivators coming, the "Silver Tiger Shark" immediately rushed forward in the sea, shaking Song Qingming and the other two who were still controlling the formation in the air, and knocked the "Golden Light Demon Binding Formation" they controlled, and also moved forward dozens of feet away.
Song Qingming, who was fully controlling the formation, also immediately felt the power of this late Jindan demon king. Whether it was the power of mana or the power of the flesh, the "Silver Tiger Shark" below was far from being comparable to the demon king of the early Jindan they had dealt with before.
Just when the "Silver Tiger Shark" wanted to break free from the control of the golden light formation below, a huge iron hammer blocked his way in front of him, blocking the "Silver Tiger Shark" from moving forward.
Then, from the other side of the "Silver Tiger Shark", two more sword lights of different colors attacked. They were the two flying swords controlled by Fairy Long Yue, which forced out the protective light shield on the "Silver Tiger Shark".
But a moment later, another green sword light flew into the sea in the air and joined the battle.
Facing the full-scale attack of Li Xianyun, Fairy Long Yue and Luo Yulong, the "Silver Tiger Shark" could only parry for a while, and had no way to break through the obstruction of the "Golden Net Binding Demon Formation".
Seeing that he was at a disadvantage under the siege of everyone, the "Silver Tiger Shark" who had already suffered a lot of injuries suddenly became a little angry. After a roar, he spit out the golden elixir in his body and forced Li Xianyun and the other two to retreat.
Then the "Silver Tiger Shark" hit hard again, directly passed through the control of several golden lights, and then moved forward quickly with this large formation.
Song Qingming and his three companions in midair were helpless in the face of this situation. They could only try their best to control the magic circle to prevent the other party from diving into the deep sea, but they could not stop the "Silver Tiger Shark" from escaping quickly in the sea.
"Fellow Daoists, you must hold on. If you give us a little more time, this guy will not be able to escape!"
The Fairy Long Yue and her companions who were chasing behind were also a little afraid that Song Qingming and his companions would not be able to hold on and let the "Silver Tiger Shark" run away, so they quickly encouraged them.
In this way, they chased the "Silver Tiger Shark" and ran for dozens of miles in the sea before slowly slowing down a little.
Just as Li Xianyun and his companions stepped forward to stop the demon king again, a deafening roar suddenly came from the horizon in the distance, which scared the people who were fighting with the demon king on the sea, and they quickly moved their eyes over.
Suddenly, a huge wave rolled up in the distant sky, rushing towards the battlefield where they were, with many black spots and shadows mixed in. When everyone saw this scene, their faces suddenly changed.
The most experienced Master Liuyun immediately turned around and shouted to the people around him: "Not good! The Sky Wind Beast Tide is coming, everyone quickly evacuate here!"
Hearing the four words "Sky Wind Beast Tide", Song Qingming was also in disbelief, looking at the formation flag in his hand for a while, it was a bit difficult to choose.
The outer sea is not as calm as the inner sea. The weather here is unpredictable. It may be sunny in the last moment, and violent black clouds and storms will come in the next moment. There are often some natural disasters that even cultivators are afraid of.
The Sky Wind Beast Tide mentioned by Master Liuyun is one of the famous natural disasters in the outer sea. When the storm rolls up huge waves, countless sea monsters will follow, and there will even be Jindan Monster Kings among them.
If you encounter such a large-scale "Sky Wind Beast Tide" in the open sea, if you cannot avoid it in time, even a Jindan cultivator will be in danger of falling. No wonder everyone is so nervous.
"Don't worry about the silver tiger shark, everyone retreat quickly!" As the leader, Fairy Longyue saw that the scale of the beast tide in front of her was beyond her expectations. Without much hesitation, she quickly took out the flying boat on her body and shouted to everyone.
Seeing this, Song Qingming and his companions did not hesitate. They directly dropped the formation flags in their hands and joined Fairy Longyue and others. They took advantage of the flying boat to turn around and flee forward.
Although the flying boat controlled by Fairy Longyue was not slow, the beast tide chasing behind was much faster than them because of the huge waves caused by the sky wind. It soon caught up with them not far behind the flying boat.
They were still hunting the demon king just now, but in a blink of an eye, they became a group of people fleeing. This sudden role change also made everyone on the flying boat helpless, and they couldn't help but find it difficult to accept this fact.
"Such a large-scale beast tide, too big a target will attract the attention of the demon kings inside, let's run separately and contact each other after returning to Linggui Island."
As the leader, Fairy Longyue saw that several demon kings had already flown out of the huge waves behind them and chased them. After a slight hesitation, she hurriedly issued a dispersed escape order to everyone.
Afterwards, Fairy Longyue put away the flying boat, turned into a white light and left the place first, and fled directly from here.
Seeing this, the rest of the people were unwilling to fall behind, and each chose a direction to quickly escape forward, hoping that the demon kings chasing behind would not target them.
Wang Linchun, who was the slowest among the group, saw that there was a demon king behind him, and he didn't care too much. He hurriedly took out a flying magic weapon from his body that could help increase his speed, wanting to speed up his flying speed.
However, he made too much noise, and two other Jindan demon kings with high cultivation level beside him immediately focused their attention on him and chased after Wang Linchun.
Song Qingming, who saw this scene from afar, was slightly startled and immediately suppressed his idea of using the "Phantom Boat".
There must be more than just these demon kings in such a large-scale beast tide. Although using the "Phantom Boat" can speed up his escape, if he attracts the attention of the demon kings and is entangled by them, he may be buried in this beast tide.
After running forward for more than ten miles, Song Qingming had lost sight of the other people in front of him, and he could only continue to flee forward alone.
Because Song Qingming had practiced the "Nine Palace Meteor Escape", his escape speed was not too slow among the crowd, and he was still able to leave the beast tide far behind.
However, it was unknown whether Song Qingming's continuous use of the "Nine Palace Meteor Escape" made too much noise or whether he had bad luck today. After running for a while, Song Qingming still attracted the attention of two nearby demon kings, who chased him.
Although the two demon kings were not strong and were both in the early stage of the Golden Core, one of them was a bird demon beast, and its escape speed was far faster than that of ordinary Golden Core cultivators. Song Qingming tried to speed up his escape several times to get rid of it but failed.
The demon king in front of him was chasing him again, preparing to harass him with magic. Song Qingming, who was already at a loss and had little mana left in his body, was thinking hard about how to get away when he suddenly saw an unnamed island in front of him.
After taking a look at the terrain of the island, Song Qingming did not hesitate and directly used the "Phantom Boat" to suddenly accelerate and get rid of the other party, and then controlled the flying boat to quickly pass through a cliff in the middle of the island below.
When the "Phantom Boat" flew to the back of the island, Song Qingming saw many stone caves on the cliff, so he found a smaller one and hid in it.
When the flying bird demon king chased over the island, he saw that he had lost the trace of Song Qingming and wanted to look for him everywhere.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from a stone cave on the cliff of the island, and then several stone caves around were completely buried by the huge rock fragments falling from above. (End of this chapter)
