"It probably wants to consume our strength first." Xingyue replied.
She looked at the monks in other teams and found that most of them were very tired after a day and night of fighting.
Although the monsters have temporarily retreated, no one knows when they will attack again.
The ship was still moving forward quickly without any sign of stopping. The disciples of Taiyuan Sect replaced them again. In fact, their rest time was not very long. After all, there were monsters attacking all the time. They felt uneasy and only restored their spiritual power.
After a while, he closed his eyes and rested for a while.
In the past, when we were fighting monsters on land, everyone was still very excited because those monsters could sell spiritual stones. Now, when we fight monsters in the sea, everyone is no longer as excited. There is no income from fighting sea monsters.
It's not that the materials on the sea beasts can't be used, but there are too many monsters. Everyone has no time to pick up the corpses of the monsters. After killing the monsters, they can only helplessly let them sink into the sea. It's really weird to think about it.
Heartache.
The surroundings fell into silence again, except for the sound of waves crashing against the ship.
While everyone was resting and healing, a new round of attacks from monsters came again.
"They are trying to kill us!" Chen Qu said with a frown as he looked at the rolling waves in the distance.
"Then what can we do? The sea is their home ground, and flying is prohibited in the secret realm. We can't pass through the air, we can only fight our way through the monsters," Xing Yue replied.
It’s hard to say what a naturally formed secret realm is, but the existence of a man-made secret realm is for the monks to experience, and the forbidden air is also to allow the monks to face various dangers and difficulties on the ground.
If nothing is allowed, then when a monk encounters danger and simply flees with his sword, wouldn't it be like losing the purpose of training?
Facing the surging wave of monsters, everyone was extremely vigilant, and no one wanted to lose their lives here.
Soon the first wave of attacks from the monsters arrived. Some of them blocked the ship in front, preventing it from moving forward. Some of them attacked the monks on the ship, with a determined attitude.
"Did we poke into the monster's nest?" A monk looked puzzled.
"Who knows, this has never happened before!" said the person next to him.
"Help!" a voice shouted from a distance.
Everyone's eyes were attracted, and then returned to the monster in front of them.
It's not that they are cold-blooded, but that after the man shouted for help, he died in the mouth of the monster. No one had time to rescue him. Of course, even if it was late, they might not be able to save him.
Xingyue's hands kept moving. These monsters posed no threat to her now. She could kill the monsters with the most ordinary silver needle, unlike when she first built a foundation to kill the monsters.
, at that time, it would take a lot of effort for her to kill even the most common early stage second-level monster, and there would be countless wounds on her body.
As expected, monks grow up through experience. She never imagined that she could be so relaxed among monsters before.
The same goes for the Taiyuan Sect disciples around her. Everyone is already familiar with the weaknesses of various monsters. Now after a long period of fighting, some things have been engraved in their hearts. Even if someone is injured, the number of monsters is too large.
Because there are many, after all, it is difficult for two fists to defeat four hands.
As time passed by, the number of monsters decreased sharply, until there was no one left.
The monks who were immersed in the fight thought that everyone worked together to kill them all, but the monks who were always paying attention to their surroundings knew that the monster retreated on its own initiative.
The monster's abnormal behavior attracted the attention of most people. They didn't know why the monster acted, but it must have something to do with them.
There are things hidden in the heart, and even if there is a short break, everyone's face is full of worry.
About half an hour later, the monster craze came again. As expected, everyone's sentiments were like this. The monsters would not retreat easily.
This time, there were still quite a few monsters blocking the ship's progress, while the rest still attacked the monks.
"They are trying to hold us back." A monk discovered the purpose of the monsters.
It's a pity that even if they discover the purpose of the monsters, they are still unable to do anything because there are too many monsters.
There are not only second-order monsters in the monster group, but also first-order monsters. The main function of the first-order monsters is to block the ships and prevent the monks from continuing to move forward, or to delay their progress.
As the main attacker, the second-level monsters still pose a considerable threat to the monks. Many monks have already died in the mouths of the monsters.
This time it was the same as before. The attack time of the monsters was not too long. After successfully harassing the monks, they left quickly.
Such monsters came again and again several times, and the monk felt like he would be crushed by them.
"I really can't stand it anymore. What do these monsters want?" The big man's face was filled with anger. He had not rested for a long time.
"These monsters just don't want us to have a good rest and consume our strength." Someone saw the purpose of the monsters.
"Who can't see this?" someone said impatiently.
So what if they see it, without a suitable solution, they can only passively endure the harassment of monsters.
I have to say that this method is very rogue. After the fight, you run away, run away and come back again. You repeat this back and forth all day long. It is normal for the monks to not be able to stand it.
"The monsters behind them must be very intelligent." Even if they don't have high intelligence, they can't think of such a solution.
"When do you think it will take action?"
"It may be today, it may be tomorrow, it depends on how patient it is."
No one heard the conversation between Xingyue and Xingyue. This was just their guess and there was no need to tell the disciples.
In the evening, just after repelling a wave of monsters, just when everyone was about to have something to eat and take a rest, the sea surface suddenly started churning.
The waves were getting higher and higher, and the small boat couldn't withstand the rolling waves and capsized.
Fortunately, the defensive array attached to the ship did not fail, and they would not be killed by the monsters hiding in the sea.
It's just that they were relieved too early. Countless tentacles swept from the depths of the sea, breaking through the defensive shield at once, and then swept away the monks inside.
When the waves hit again and the capsized boat returned to its original state, everyone was shocked to find that the monk above had disappeared without a trace.
"It took action." Xingyue raised her eyebrows and said.
"Yes, we took action." Chen Qu understood what she meant.
The waves were still churning, and everyone was trying their best to stabilize their own ships.
On the dark sea surface, one head after another appeared, and then everyone felt that their boat was hit harder than before. Some monks lost their balance, and the boat was knocked over, and then the monks inside were knocked over.
The tentacles hidden in the sea were dragged away.
"The monster is here again!" a monk shouted.
Upon hearing this sound, everyone immediately clenched their weapons and prepared to face the attack of the monster.
