One after another, the demon-killing arrows shuttled among the advancing demonic beasts, mercilessly harvesting the lives of low-level demonic beasts.

Wherever the demon-killing arrow passed, the demonic beasts fell down in rows.

After firing two waves of demon-killing arrows in succession, the foundation-building monk responsible for the order discovered something strange among the beasts, and immediately ordered the use of the third-level machine crossbow to be stopped.

The power of the third-level machine crossbow is indeed very strong, but it can only kill one third-level monster at most, and it is unlikely to penetrate the body of a third-level monster.

In the previous two waves of volleys, each arrow shot down a row of monster beasts, which showed that there were no third-order monster beasts in the group of beasts, but only second-order monster beasts.

Each arrow of the third-level machine crossbow is a third-level low-grade magic weapon, which is very expensive to make, and after being used once, the arrows cannot be used again.

The third-level machine crossbow is specially designed to deal with the third-level monsters, and arrows cannot be wasted on the second-level monsters.

In the sky, Huo Yunjiu saw that the human monks were no longer using the third-level machine crossbows, and said slightly disappointed.

"It was discovered so quickly. The plan really failed!"

Although Li Lang felt a little uncomfortable having wasted dozens of third-level arrows, seeing Huo Yunjiu's dejected look made him feel less uncomfortable.

"Bastard, you don't have any more monsters in your hands. You only sent some second-level monsters to attack. Why don't you just go back home?"

Li Lang would be very happy if he could defeat Huo Yunjiu, so he would not give up any opportunity to retaliate.

Instead of using Tier 3 machine crossbows, the monks in the Sheriff's Mansion and the monks stationed in Tianhen Fortress formed five teams to collectively cast a certain spell.

Twenty Qi-training monks used the second-level high-grade fire snake technique together, and a huge fire snake rushed towards the group of monster beasts and swallowed up all the monster beasts in that area.

This fire snake has reached the power of a third-level low-grade spell and burned dozens of monsters to death.

One by one, second-level high-grade spells that were as powerful as third-level spells attacked the monsters, ruthlessly harvesting their lives.

Compared to front-line monks who work together as a team to cast spells to quickly kill monsters, family monks and casual cultivators only use spells to attack monsters individually. In comparison, the efficiency is very low.

In order to reduce the losses to the clan members, Chen took out several sets of Xiaosanjue Demon Slayer Arrays and Pseudo Sanjue Demon Slayer Arrays from the warehouse, and asked the clansmen to practice hard in the family for several days.

It's just that the formation requires close combat to exert its effect. Now the Chen clan can only use spells to attack.

Fireballs, ice blades, water arrows, wind blades and other various spells bombarded the monsters that were constantly approaching the defensive formation.

After various spell attacks, various screams and cries of death from the monsters were heard.

In the midst of mourning, some second-level monsters that could use long-range attacks used long-range attacks to fight back.

It's just that all their attacks were blocked by the defensive formation and had no effect at all.

There were not many monsters participating in this trial attack. There were only more than 2,000 second-level monsters. Their individual strength was not strong, and there was no possibility of breaking through the fortress.

Moreover, the first two waves of third-level demon-killing arrows had already killed a large number of demonic beasts, and the remaining demonic beasts had been almost wiped out under the spell attacks like rain and flowers.

Without even touching the defensive formation, this group of low-level monsters was almost completely destroyed.

The fire dove in the sky saw the result below, with a pair of eyes that showed no emotion.

Huo Yunjiu had already thought of this scene when he decided to send this group of low-level monsters to test the Tianhen Fortress.

So it wasn't angry about it, and it didn't even show any other emotions.

After making a very loud cry towards the sky, the Fire Cloud Dove flew away in the direction of the Tianhen Mountains without looking back.

Li Lang and the other three silently watched Huo Yunjiu leave in mid-air without any movement.

Huo Yunjiu's flying speed is extremely fast, much faster than Li Lang in the later stage of Jindan. It is impossible for him to catch up with Huo Yunjiu.

In addition, Li Lang was also worried that there were other fourth-order monsters setting up an ambush outside.

If you chase him out rashly, you may be in trouble.

After receiving the order to retreat from Huo Yunjiu, the few remaining monsters immediately turned around and ran back, much faster than when they came. Xixi Pinshu.com Xixi

Even some monsters that the monks thought were dead and fallen stopped pretending to be dead and quickly stood up from the ground after hearing Huoyunjiu's cry.

The demon beast that stood up and pretended to be dead used all its strength in an instant. Under the surprised gazes of the monks, it turned into a black shadow and disappeared in front of everyone. It quickly escaped from everyone's sight and saved its life with difficulty.

There were nearly two thousand second-level monsters, but no more than a hundred returned in the end. All the other monsters were left here forever.

This was an unquestionable victory, a complete victory with no losses.

The monks on the fortress walls were all cheering for this victory.

Li Lang glanced at the corpse of the monster on the ground, said hello to Sun Kai and Tian Rou beside him, and returned to the secret room with a heavy face.

Sun Kai and Tian Rou looked at each other and saw a hint of heaviness in each other's eyes.

All three of them understood that today was just a small test by the demon clan, and the real battle would be tomorrow or tonight.

After the battle, under the arrangements of the foundation-building monks, some Qi-training monks went down to collect all the corpses of the monsters, and then distributed them according to their merits.

This is one of the reasons why casual cultivators are willing to come to Tianhen Fortress to support them.

The danger is indeed dangerous, but the rewards are also rich.

There are many monks who have successfully built foundations and even successfully formed elixirs by relying on the gains from this battle.

Currently, Lieutenant General Tian Rou, one of the three golden elixir masters in Tianhen Fortress, successfully formed elixirs shortly after the last beast wave.

Danger is always accompanied by opportunity. Whether you can seize the opportunity depends on your personal ability.

…………

In a small valley dozens of miles away from Tianhen Fortress, dozens of black-clothed monks are hiding here.

At the very center of the valley, nine black-clothed monks, whose auras were far superior to those of the other black-clothed men, sat cross-legged around a fire.

There is no doubt that these nine people are all powerful foundation-building monks.

Suddenly, a messenger talisman flew in front of the tall man in black with a scar on his face among the nine people.

After reading the contents of the messenger talisman, the man in black with Scar passed the messenger talisman to other men in black for review, and sat there meditating.

After everyone read the contents of the messenger talisman, they all looked at Scar the man in black.

"What do you think?"

The scarred man in black opened his eyes and asked everyone in a rough voice.

"Second Master, since there's already a fight over there, we should take action."

A slightly childish voice said from a relatively short man in black.

"You can't do it second-in-command. The war has just started over there. We have a little bit of energy left. Now is not the best time to take action."

"We are still waiting a little longer, waiting for the other party to fight to the point of breaking out, and then we will take action."
