Chapter 1154: Formidable Reinforcement
After the flying boat flew forward for about an hour, the surrounding mountains gradually flattened out. Waves of unusual spiritual fluctuations spread out as a dark green castle built in the valley appeared in everyone’s field of vision.
The style of the castle was ancient and simple, covering an area of several thousand acres. Inside the castle was a small town. The city wall was built with huge stones that contained wood attribute spiritual power. After countless years of honing, the surface of the huge stones looked quite smooth.
At this moment, the castle was swarmed by countless Hellish-Insects.
The entire castle was covered by a layer of green-purple shield. Under the attack of Hellish-Insects, the shield burst out sparks from time to time.
The yellow flying boat stopped in mid-air, and it shrank rapidly after a flash of yellow light. It was then kept away by Kun Yu. Liu Ming and the others were suspended in mid-air.
“The castle in front is the Ye Family Castle. I didn’t expect these Hellish-Insects to start attacking so soon.” Kun Yu didn’t show much surprise on his face as if he knew it long ago. He didn’t intend to assist immediately.
Liu Ming also slowly flew to the front, standing side by side with Kun Yu. He spread his Divine Thought and covered hundreds of miles around.
“The number of Hellish-Insects besieging Ye Family Castle is about 4000. They are mainly below the Crystallization Period. There are 5 Real Pellet State Hellish-Insects.” After scanning around, Liu Ming said slowly.
“The strength of these Hellish-Insects is nothing to fear. We will act according to the original plan.” Kun Yu nodded. Apparently, he also used Divine Thought to find out clearly. He glanced at the people behind him and raised his arms… …
Ye Family Castle was not very clear from a distance, but the area inside the castle was quite large. There were hundreds of tall ancient buildings in it.
As an affiliated family of the 4 ancient sects, Taiqing Sect, the Ye Family had been stationed in the mineral vein for generations. It had continued to grow and develop for nearly a thousand years. Now, it was comparable to some medium-sized sects. Even some thousands of years old sects had to treat them with courtesy. Its status in Middle Sky Continent was obvious.
But at this moment, the inside of Ye Family Castle was in chaos. Squads of Ye Family cultivators were flying all over the sky, launching light beams into the green-purple light shield to fortify it.
Outside the light shield, countless Hellish-Insects were spouting green mucus and light beams at the light shield.
Above the Ye Family Castle, there was a middle-aged man wearing a green brocade robe and 5 green armored guards.
The middle-aged man exuded a profound spiritual pressure, which belonged only to the Real Pellet State cultivator. He was holding a big flag with green-purple lightning in his right hand. He was paying attention to the movement of the Hellish-Insects while waving the big flag. Wherever the big flag pointed, a burst of green-purple lightning would launch from the shield, burning dozens of low rank Hellish-Insects into coke.
However, for the thousands of Hellish-Insects besieging the castle, this damage could only be regarded as a drop in the bucket.
Although the cultivators of the Ye Family tried their best to maintain the light shield, under the attacks of countless Hellish-Insects, the light curtains around the castle gradually dimmed.
“Family Master, the Qingsang Thunder Spark Array is about to collapse.” At this moment, a gray-haired old man flew over from a distance, stopped in front of the middle-aged man in a green robe and said anxiously.
The middle-aged man in a green robe glanced at the gray-haired old man, frowned, and stopped waving the flag.
He was at the array eye of the array, so he knew better than anyone else the situation of the array outside the castle.
2 days ago, the Hellish-Insects entrenched around Mountain Qingsang suddenly rushed to the Ye Family Castle. Fortunately, since the Ye Family discovered the appearance of this group of Hellish-Insects, they gathered all the people in the castle and patrolled day and night. They activated the Qingsang Thunder Spark Array in time, which allowed them to resist until now.
But at this moment, under the continuous attacks, the array was finally about to fail.
“Family Master, it’s really impossible. We have to retreat first!” The gray-haired old man said in a deep voice.
“Old Wu, our Ye Family has spent thousands of years and countless painstaking efforts to build this foundation. Is it going to be ruined in my hands?” The middle-aged man in a green robe said solemnly. His right hand holding the big flag trembled a little.
“The castle can be built again in the future. The first thing is to preserve the vitality of the family.” The gray-haired old man glanced around and said anxiously.
“Old Wu, I was entrusted by Taiqing Sect to guard the mineral vein here. If I lost it and angered the Taiqing Sect, how do we gain a foothold in the Middle Sky Continent in the future? Besides, you must know that the families near Mountain Qingsang is not only our Ye Family. If we flee without a fight, Taiqing Sect will definitely support another family to control the mineral vein here…” The middle-aged man in a green robe said sadly.
The gray-haired old man was speechless for a while.
After the middle-aged man in a green robe looked uncertain for a while, he gritted his teeth and said,
“Old Wu, gather the old, weak, women and children in the castle as well as the elite disciples of the younger generation, to the hidden castle. Let’s hold on for a while. If we really can’t, let them evacuate through the hidden castle. We must defend until the last moment, so even if we fall, the Taiqing Sect will not pursue it.”
“Yes.” The gray-haired old man agreed and immediately flew down.
“Open the 4 Thunder Spark Towers in the castle and install all the thunder source crystal stones. No matter what, we have to hold for another half day.” The middle-aged man in a green robe said in a deep voice to the several green armored guards beside him.
These people agreed and flew in four directions.
The middle-aged man in a green robe glanced around, then he spurted a stream of pure vitality into the giant flag.
Immediately, waves of green-purple lightning arcs emerged from the purple banner. With a wave, several thick purple lightning snakes were launched into the light shield.
The dim light curtain was obviously brightened, and dense lightning arcs appeared on the surface.
The low rank Hellish-Insects that were close to the light curtain were swarmed by the lightning arcs. The remaining Hellish-Insects kept a distance from the light shield and temporarily stopped attacking.
The green-purple light curtain, which was originally shining continuously, temporarily stabilized.
“Roar!“
At this moment, there was a commotion among the Hellish-Insects. Suddenly, a green giant longhorn beetle-like Hellish-Insect more than 30 meters long appeared behind the swarm. It had an ugly human face. The spiritual pressure it emitted was not weaker than the Real Pellet State cultivator’s.
When the surrounding Hellish-Insects heard the roar, they immediately shrilled to echo it, then then they began to attack its green-purple light shield desperately.
The huge eyes of the green beetle Hellish-Insect looked at Ye Family Castle in the light shield, then the pair of green-white tentacles were charging 2 dazzling green light beams at the light shield..
At this moment, there was a movement behind it. A figure surrounded by black air emerged like a ghost, and he punched the green longhorn beetle’s back at an incredible speed.
“Crack!“
The green longhorn beetle’s carapace dented like a paper under this blow.
Before it could react in time, countless fist shadows barraged like a rain!
The huge body of the green longhorn beetle was smashed into the ground from midair. Countless holes were smashed out on its body, and green blood flowed out from them.
The green longhorn beetle also spewed out a mouthful of green blood, and it couldn’t get up immediately.
At this moment, a green bull phantasm flew down from the blurry figure in mid-air and bit off half of the head of the green longhorn beetle.
After the green longhorn beetle struggled a few times, it became motionless.
From the appearance of the figure to the killing of the Real Pellet State green longhorn beetle, it took only a few seconds.
The surrounding low rank Hellish-Insects didn’t react until this moment. Many Hellish-Insects rushed toward the blurry figure in midair.
A cold snort came from the figure, then he waved and launched a purple sword light. The purple sword light turned into a dozen giant purple sword lights that swirled around him.
Hundreds of Hellish-Insects were dismembered by the purple sword lights. Countless mutilated insect bodies rained down from mid-air.
Within the Qingsang Thunder Spark Array, the cultivators of the Ye Family Castle, including the Ye Family Master, widened their mouths in disbelief after seeing this scene.
At the same time that the blurry figures appeared, more than a dozen other figures suddenly appeared outside the Qingsang Thunder Spark Array.
These people launched a series of strong attacks at the Hellish-Insects, bursting them apart. The Hellish-Insect army suddenly panicked. They gave up attacking the green-purple light shield below and rushed to these people.
The few people standing in the front exuded the huge spiritual pressure of the Real Pellet State, and every seemingly random attack could kill at least a dozen or more low rank Hellish-Insects.
Led by these few people, more than a dozen cultivators were charging wildly in the Hellish-Insects. Except for a few Hellish-Insects above the Crystallization Period later stage, the low rank Hellish-Insects couldn’t resist.
Wherever they went, the Hellish-Insects would crumble.
