On the Eastern Wilderness Sea, with its sparkling waves and boundless vastness, a spaceship was slowly moving forward.
"Long Chen, what's going on? I've been traveling all the way for two days, but I haven't seen a powerful monster attack yet?" Meng Qi stared at the sea with her beautiful eyes, and gently tied her long hair that was ruffled by the wind with her jade hands.
He said with some doubts.
"It's probably because the storm is about to come, which indicates that a large-scale beast tide is about to break out." Long Chen said with a serious look on his face.
Because according to past records, when a wave of monsters breaks out, the monsters will hibernate to recharge their batteries.
But now the flying boat has been flying for a day and has entered the edge of the deep sea. It stands to reason that the monsters here are still active, but now they are frighteningly calm.
"Boss, what is going on with this beast tide? I still haven't figured out why it breaks out periodically?" Gu Yang said with some confusion.
"To put it bluntly, this is a method of survival of the fittest. Tianwu Huanhai is actually controlled by the monster clan.
The monster clan is an extremely terrifying clan. They live in the depths of the surrounding sea. No one dares to provoke them. Even the top strong men in the continent are afraid of them.
In fact, the monsters we are killing now are just inferior monsters whose bloodline is no longer pure. The ninth level is basically their limit.
Only monsters that can grow to level ten or above can be considered a true monster clan. We have encountered tenth level monsters on the road, you all remember them.
They are the rulers of Tianwu Huanhai. Tianwu Huanhai, like Tianwu Continent, is actually a huge place of cultivation.
However, there are too many monsters in the Tianwu Huanhai. When the number reaches an extreme, it will affect the cultivation of the pure-blooded monsters in the Huanhai.
In fact, this beast tide was launched under the trend of those demon beast rulers." Long Chen said.
Very few people know about this secret. Master Xuan told Long Chen this to make him mentally prepared.
"Oh my God, if they can control such a huge army of monsters, wouldn't they be able to easily destroy human monks?" Gu Yang was shocked.
"It's not that exaggerated. No matter how many and powerful the monsters are, they are in the body of beasts after all. Compared with humans, they can't refine elixirs, cast weapons, make talismans, or set up formations. If they land on land, they will be wiped out soon.
They can only run rampant in the sea. The demon beast clan deliberately launches the beast tide. In fact, it is to reduce the number of demon beasts and reach a balance. Otherwise, if there are too many demon beasts, the spiritual energy in the ring sea will become thin.
, will affect the interests of the powerful monsters.
Therefore, when Tianwu Huanhai launches a tide of beasts, signs will be given some time in advance to allow human monks to prepare.
This is actually a game of survival of the fittest, which is not a bad thing for either the sea monster or the human monk.
The monster clan, with the help of humans, destroyed some of the wasteful existences, while humans trained their disciples in the battle and harvested a large amount of inner elixirs.
This is also the reason why the Tianwu Alliance does not allow king-level experts to enter the Tianwu Ring Sea area for hunting.
Because they are afraid that if they kill the pure-blood descendants of the monster beasts, this will anger the rulers of the monster beasts, which will lead to a terrifying war."
As Long Chen explained, he sprinkled some medicinal powder that he had refined before into the sea. Those medicinal powders were the mixed animal blood that Long Chen asked Meng Qi to remove from her pet's body.
Monsters are extremely sensitive to their essence and blood. After Long Chen refined it with medicinal powder, the smell of blood spread rapidly in the water.
"Buzz"
After a moment of burning incense, the sea surface arched up like a mountain, and countless huge figures rushed straight towards the crowd.
"Ninth level monster"
Ahman couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw this. He was the first to rush out, summoning the Savage Blood Bronze Body, and struck out with the mace in his hand, smashing the head of a strange fish into pieces.
At the same time, a light emerged from the big bowl in his hand, and the strange fish that looked like a small mountain was put into the bowl, and Ah Man poured it into his mouth to chew.
Everyone was surprised and amused. Ah Man was so hungry. He was so anxious. Everyone took action to kill the monster.
The eighth-level monsters are of little use, but the ninth-level monsters are full of treasures and can be sold for money, especially the inner elixir is extremely valuable.
Now, under Long Chen's deliberate attraction, more and more ninth-level monsters have been attracted. All dragon-blooded warriors have now been promoted to the Formation Stage. It is not difficult to kill these ninth-order monsters.
Soon, the sea water was dyed red with the blood of the monster beasts, and the bloody atmosphere filled the air, attracting more monster beasts. For a time, the sea surface surged, and countless huge figures flew out from the bottom of the sea, killing everyone.
Long Chen parked the flying boat above the battlefield and watched the dragon-blooded warriors fighting fiercely below. Aman killed one and ate another. In such a short time, he had eaten more than a dozen ninth-level monsters, but he still felt not full.
, still killing and eating at the same time.
"Long Chen, what are you thinking about?" Meng Qi stood beside Long Chen and asked when she saw Long Chen's brows furrowed.
"Mengqi, have you noticed that after the blood of these ninth-level monsters flows into the sea, the energy in the blood essence is dispersed into the sea." Long Chen said.
"Long Chen, are you a little stupid? If your essence and blood flow into the sea, of course it will be absorbed by the sea. Isn't this normal?" Meng Qi chuckled.
Long Chen shook his head and said: "That's not what I meant. I was thinking that Tianwu Huanhai relies on human hands to survive and eliminate the fittest.
So is it the same in our spiritual world, is there a big hand pushing us forward?"
"This... I really haven't thought about it." Meng Qi was stunned. She had never considered such an issue.
Long Chen considered this issue because when he was on the Eternal Road, he and Donghuang Zhong went deep underground and saw the altar and the huge skeleton.
Although Donghuang Zhong didn't say anything, Long Chen always felt that Wangu Road was likely to be manipulated like Tianwu Huanhai.
So the Eternal Road will be controlled, will the Tianwu Continent also be controlled? If there is someone who really controls the destiny of the Tianwu Continent, then what kind of existence will this person be? Is he a god?
"Xiaoyun, come back, don't be greedy." Meng Qi was talking to Long Chen, and she accidentally ate an eighth-level magic beast after chasing after the wonton swallowing bird, but she was caught by Meng Qi.
Long Chen shook his head. This issue is not something he should consider now. Zhongzhou is so big, and he will understand later, why he has to think so much.
"Mengqi, let Xiaoyun eat it. There is basically no problem with his body now. I will refine the elixir for it later, which will completely make up for its innate losses." Long Chen said to Mengqi.
Looking at the pitiful look of the wonton-chasing bird, it looks like a greedy child, how can it be embarrassed not to let it eat?
Seeing Long Chen agree, Chai Yun Tun Tian Que immediately let out a cry of joy and turned into a huge colorful lightning and rushed into the battlefield.
"You little devil, you know how to pretend to be a good person." Meng Qi rolled her eyes at Long Chen, but she did not give any order to chase the Sky Sparrow back.
Now, under Meng Qi's careful care, the innate deficiencies of the Sky-chasing Wontonton Bird have been made up and there are no problems anymore. However, Mengqi is cautious and is afraid of accidents, so she doesn't let the Bird-Chasing Wontonton Bird eat and overeat.
Long Chen didn't think it was a big problem. Every time he chased the wonton-tongued bird and pretended to be cute, Long Chen would say a few words to it. But the chase-wonton-tongued bird was very shrewd and ran away when Long Chen opened his mouth.
, it knew that Meng Qi would not refute Long Chen.
"Hey, that's a ninth-level monster."
Meng Qi suddenly screamed, and saw the corpse of a killed ninth-level monster shrinking rapidly and flying into the mouth of the chasing cloud swallowing bird.
"Forget it, Mengqi, don't worry about it. Xiaoyun's true form is the chasing cloud swallowing bird. It is an ancient relic of the immortals and has its own inheritance.
If there is any danger, it will react on its own. If you keep restraining it like this, it will still not be able to act on instinct, which will limit its cultivation." Long Chen advised.
"Okay, I admit that I am confused if I care." Meng Qi thought for a moment and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Long Chen took Meng Qi's jade hand and chuckled: "You are under so much pressure because you promised Xiaoyun's mother.
In fact, none of us are gods, and no one can tell what will happen in the future, so Xiaoyun just let it go and be happy."
Meng Qi understood what Long Chen meant. She doted on Xiaoyun too much, which may not be a good thing for Xiaoyun. She should give him more space and not restrain him all the time.
"Buzz"
After Xiaoyun swallowed a ninth-level monster, the colorful wings all over his body lit up, and endless aura surged. Xiaoyun's body grew rapidly, reaching a length of more than 500 feet. His aura soared from the sixth level to the seventh level in an instant.
Meng Qi was shocked. Xiaoyun was indeed chasing the Yun-Swallowing Sky Sparrow. The powerful ninth-level monster was swallowed into its belly and could be digested instantly. It was suddenly promoted to the seventh level.
Moreover, its aura is extremely solid, and there is no sign of emptiness at all, which means that the Sky-Chasing Cloud-Tombulating Bird does not need any scruples and can grow freely.
Seeing Xiaoyun's soaring body, Meng Qi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, she felt a little ashamed in her heart. If it weren't for Long Chen, she might have limited Xiaoyun's growth rate just to be on the safe side.
"唳"
After Xiaoyun was promoted to the seventh level, he suddenly let out a loud roar, shook his wings, and rushed straight towards a ninth-level monster.
Meng Qi was startled. Xiaoyun was only at the seventh level. Meng Qi had just formed a seal on her jade hand, but was grabbed by Long Chen.
"Sometimes trust is the best encouragement." Long Chen smiled.
"boom"
At this moment, the ninth-level monster with the head of an ox and the body of a fish emitted two bright rays of light from the horns on its head, and shot straight towards the Sky Bird.
This was a full blow from the ninth-level monster. Meng Qi's face suddenly turned pale, but just when the light was about to hit Xiaoyun, Xiaoyun's wings spread out and suddenly disappeared.
When it reappeared, it was already in front of the ninth-level monster. The chasing cloud swallowing bird opened its mouth and a blue light shot out.
"puff"
The cyan light penetrated the head of the ninth-level monster, instantly killing it and being swallowed by the chasing cloud swallowing bird.
At this moment, more than a dozen ninth-level demonic beasts had surrounded the Sky-Chasing Cloud-Devouring Bird. The Bird-Chasing Cloud-Devouring Sky Bird flapped its wings and turned into a stream of colorful light, which went straight into the sky and disappeared.
