Chapter 133: Destroying The Beast Tide
Outside Azure City, a column of soldiers fought against the monsters, relying on defensive structures. As for those without armor, they were the martial artists who spontaneously resisted the beast tide within the city.
They knew that when the city fell, they would all die, so they bravely fought back with the determination to risk their lives.
However, even so, they were forced to retreat step by step as the monsters from the barren mountains swarmed out. In the end, they could only defend within the strongest defensive structure near the city gate.
The monsters also concentrated their attacks on that position. Many monster birds were attacking the protective array around Azure City in the sky.
The city lord of Azure City stood on the city wall, looking at the last semi-circular defensive structure set up less than fifty meters from the city gate with deep concern.
He turned to a military officer and asked, "When will the Flower City reinforcements arrive? Have we sent someone to notify the Su family?"
"City Lord, we have already notified them! As for the reinforcements, based on my estimation, they should be here soon!" The military officer paused for a moment and said with some regret, "If only this beast tide had come a little earlier!"
"Hmm?" The city lord of Azure City frowned, "What do you mean by that?"
"Don't you know, City Lord? A few days ago, a large number of strong experts arrived and descended upon Azure City?"
"I've heard about that. It is said that even the Xia King came! But when I hurried over, they had already left, and I didn't dare to disturb Young Master Su."
The city lord suddenly realized, "Are you suggesting that we could have used those experts to resist the beast tide?"
"Exactly!" The military officer sighed, "It's a pity. The timing wasn't right. I heard that those experts came to pay their respects to Young Master Su, who has already broken through to the Fish-Dragon Realm! He even killed Lui Badao, the number one expert in the eastern region, and saved the entire eastern martial world! It's truly admirable!"
"Young Master Su is indeed formidable, but I'm afraid he has already left by now. After all, such a peerless expert wouldn't linger in a small place like thiswait, what's that?"
As the city lord of Azure City spoke, he noticed a blue rainbow streaking towards them at high speed from within the city, and his expression changed suddenly.
"It's Young Master Su! He hasn't left!"
The military officer was excited, "It's said that on that day, Young Master Su also came in the form of a blue rainbow. It can't be wrong!"
"That's great! With Young Master Su here, Azure City is safe!"
Upon hearing his words, everyone's spirits were lifted.
Soon, Su Zhan landed on the city wall.
"We pay our respects to Young Master Su!" Everyone on the city wall respectfully saluted him.
Su Zhan looked at the city lord and asked, "Can we confirm that there is no one left in the barren mountains?"
"The barren mountains were already sparsely populated, and after the beast tide erupted, everyone there was killed by the monsters. Even some passersby met the same fate. Those monsters are extremely vicious and won't spare any survivors!"
"That's good then." Su Zhan nodded, "Let those people retreat into the city, and I'll give it a try."
"Thank you, Young Master Su!"
The city lord was overjoyed and quickly used his true qi to shout ahead, "All soldiers and martial artists, abandon the defenses and retreat into the city! Young Master Su has arrived!"
In the past few days, the visits of the powerful experts to the Su family had caused a commotion in Azure City, and everyone there naturally knew of Su Zhan's name. Hearing this, they were overjoyed and immediately retreated without hesitation.
Seeing everyone retreating into the city, the monsters were fiercely destroying the defensive structures.
Su Zhan jumped down from the city wall.
"Boom!" He landed on the ground, and a visible shockwave spread out from his landing point, forming a half-circle in front of him.
Instantly, all the monsters within a fifty-meter radius were turned into blood mist! Even their bones were shattered.
"Hiss~ Is this the strength of a Fish-Dragon Realm expert? It's terrifying!"
"Just one attack and so many monsters were destroyed! Young Master Su is too powerful!"
"It seems that he won't even need ten minutes to eliminate all the monsters!"
"Ten minutes? Five minutes will be enough. Just wait and see!"
On the city wall, everyone was excited and filled with anticipation, guessing how long Su Zhan would take to eliminate the beast tide.
Hearing the people's words, Su Zhan was somewhat speechless. That shockwave was just a trace of his true qi dissipating. Yet, these people thought it was his full-powered attack They were way off the mark. He hadn't even started using his full strength yet!
After slandering a few words, Su Zhan also looked at those monsters excitedly. The Limitless Stellar Body technique was activated, and amidst the terrified gazes of the monsters, he unleashed a punch.
In the next moment, brilliant starlight condensed into a fist shadow, hundreds of meters in size, and blasted forward. Every monster within a hundred meters of the fist shadow was instantly crushed by the overwhelming force.
The fist shadow eventually struck the barren mountains that stretched for hundreds of miles.
"Boom!"
The mountains shattered!
In the middle of the mountain range, a gap about a hundred meters wide appeared. The fist shadow continued to surge forward for nearly a thousand meters before gradually dissipating.
"The power of one punch has increased nearly tenfold compared to before! If I encounter a third transformation Fish-Dragon Realm expert now, I probably won't even need to use the Great Sun Star Sword. With the physical strength boost from the Limitless Stellar Body technique, I can kill them with just one punch!" Looking at the more than ten miles long trace of the fist shadow, Su Zhan was quite satisfied.
Then, with a light step, he arrived in mid-air.
Qingyang Devil Fire! A green sun rose behind him.
In the next moment, all the monsters between Azure City and the barren mountains collapsed with a loud crash. In the sky, the monster birds also fell to the ground one after another.
The Qingyang Devil Fire, generally speaking, was not lethal. However, these monsters were of too low a level. The non-lethal mental impact was absolutely deadly to them. If it weren't for Su Zhan's control, those people on Azure City who saw this green sun would have instantly turned into idiots, even if they didn't die.
After killing all those monsters, Su Zhan returned to the Su Mansion by stepping into the air.
Three seconds after he left.
The people on the city wall finally snapped out of their shock.
"That green sun just now what was it?"
"I don't know, I don't know, but what I do know is that Su Zhan must have deliberately controlled the effect. Otherwise, we would have ended up like those monsters!"
"Such a terrifying divine power over such a large range if Su Zhan were our enemy, he could probably destroy half of Azure City in an instant!"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
The City Lord of Azure City shook his head, looking at the gap in the barren mountains, and his mouth twitched, saying, "If Su Zhan is willing, our Xia Kingdom, or even all fifteen countries in the eastern region, would not be his match!"
One person, scarier than fifteen countries!
Such exaggerated words were not opposed on the city wall. Because Su Zhan's strength was indeed like that, how could they refute it?
Following the city lord's orders, the soldiers rushed out and dragged the monster corpses back to the city. Su Zhan had no interest in those monster remains, but they were valuable cultivation resources for the Azure City martial artists!
Dozens of miles outside Azure City.
Xue Ye, the commander of Flower City, was leading a thousand elite cavalry rushing to aid Azure City.
"Hurry up! This time, Azure City requested urgent reinforcements through the smoke signal. We must speed up, and there's still a barren mountain ahead that we need to bypass!"
"But General Xue, it seems we don't need to bypass it."
"Hmm?" As the warhorses passed a bend, Xue Ye followed the gaze of a soldier who spoke and saw what was happening ahead. He widened his eyes, swayed, and almost fell off his horse in shock!
He saw a massive gap of over a hundred meters wide had opened in the barren mountain range outside Azure City!
