Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Through Everything.

The Jade-faced Queen Bee advanced to the first-class upper grade not long ago.

Its army of poisonous bees has increased a lot, estimated to be 100,000.

Chen Xuan spends more than a hundred spirit stones every month to buy spirit honey and monster meat to feed them.

Fortunately, the stock of the Jade-faced Queen Bee after mating is almost exhausted, and the current scale should not expand.

The six soul-eating demon insects have also advanced to the first-class middle grade. Their combat power against cultivators and monsters is very ordinary, but they are quite effective against ghosts and other netherworldly things.

Looking at the strange insects eating in front of him, Chen Xuan is quite relieved.

These are the ones he has cultivated with great effort since childhood, and they are his fellow companions on the path of cultivation.

He hopes that this beast tide will be a little gentler to Qingyun Market.

After many days.

When Chen Xuan appeared in the West City Law Enforcement Hall again, everyone was a little surprised.

They were used to not seeing Chen Xuan in the office.

All matters, big or small, were handled by Wang Fugui.

Everyone knew that Chen Xuan had delegated power, and no one was dissatisfied.

Wang Fugui was a smart man. As long as it involved the affairs of the Law Enforcement Hall, no matter how big or small the matter was, he would write a briefing and submit it to Chen Xuan for review.

Chen Xuan was naturally too lazy to spend energy on this.

Anyway, he took the lion's share of the benefits, both openly and secretly.

Wang Fugui was originally from a family of merchants, and he was very good at everything.

He also enjoyed it.

Seeing Chen Xuan enter the office, his aura became stronger, and he couldn't help but blurt out: "Did Lord Chen break through?"

Chen Xuan smiled and nodded.

"Fugui, accompany me."

Not long after.

The two came to the shantytown in Xicheng.

Chen Xuan looked at the grassroots casual cultivators who were building fortifications outside the shantytown, and his eyes showed a trace of pity.

"You know everything?"

"Yes, there is a notice in the market."

It was not until this time that Jinyang Sect posted a notice to inform all cultivators in the market that there might be a beast tide attacking the city in the near future.

For this reason, Jinyang Sect ordered martial law in the whole market, and no one was allowed to leave without permission. All personnel, regardless of their status, obeyed the sect's dispatch.

Those well-informed sect disciples and family disciples had already left the market in advance.

For ordinary cultivators, it is not easy to leave Qingyun Market.

It is originally an enclave, and the surrounding area is full of wild wilderness, various monsters and beasts, as well as robbery cultivators.

The best choice is to leave with the sect airship.

Obviously, this service is limited to sect disciples and family disciples.

The second is to follow the Merchant Alliance team.

You need to pay a certain amount of spirit stones, and you also need a capable person to guarantee.

However, the time for the Merchant Alliance team to travel to Qingyun Market is not fixed.

It has been greatly reduced recently.

Moreover, there won't be too many casual cultivators who can be taken with the team, in case someone has ulterior motives.

Finally, they will form a group, hire experienced demon hunters as guides, and force their way through the wilderness to return to the market or fairy city near the heart of Song State.

This requires the foundation-building major cultivator as the core force.

A casual cultivator in the Qi training period, crossing the wilderness alone, will only be buried in it and become food for demon beasts unless he is very lucky.

Now, Jinyang Sect has issued a martial law order.

All cultivators who stay in the market must obey the dispatch unconditionally.

As for the low-level casual cultivators in the shantytowns, they are free labor.

"Will the market let them enter the city?"

"No, according to the practice of previous years."

Chen Xuan's eyes flickered slightly.

This means that the casual cultivators in the shantytowns are cannon fodder, and many people will die in this beast tide.

Therefore, the so-called beast tide is actually a kind of tacit understanding between the sect and the demon cultivators. There are too many low-level cultivators and demon beasts, and some of them are consumed through the beast tide.

But this time, it is different from previous years.

The Demon Sect and the demon cultivators have joined forces.

Perhaps, this time the beast tide will come for real.

Chen Xuan was prepared for this.

He had long told Jiang Yingxue to pack up the things at home and be ready to escape at any time.

If you are rich, you should help the world, and if you are poor, you should take care of yourself.

The former is a long way off, and the latter must be kept in mind.

In the world of cultivation, there is no right or wrong, good or bad, only the strong and the weak survive.

"Tell everyone to be prepared, don't be too reckless, and try to save your life."

"Okay."

"Which foundation-building masters are responsible for defending the West City this time?"

"The elder of the sect, Mo Xianliang, the patriarch of the Huang family, Huang Yingsui, and the casual cultivator Zhao Feitao."

No mistakes, one sentence, one post, one content, one book, one bar, one 6, one book, one bar, one look!

Three foundation-building masters, plus the defense formation of the market, are enough to resist the attack of more than a dozen second-level demon beasts.

In the shantytowns, the gangs organized the elite forces among the scattered cultivators to build defensive fortifications on the periphery.

…

Feeding a large amount of insect essence, the poisonous flame golden silkworm and the iron-backed mantis finally advanced to the upper grade.

Not long after, the autumnal equinox finally arrived.

More and more social monsters appeared outside the shantytowns.

The first to appear was the common black-tailed demon wolf pack.

They cooperated with each other, advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, and often attacked the scattered cultivators in a certain area at the same time.

Under the protection of the fortifications, the scattered cultivators in the shantytowns could fight back and forth with the black-tailed demon wolves at the beginning.

However, with the appearance of the phantom leopard group, the scattered cultivators in the shantytowns retreated step by step, and many became food for the monsters.

The organizational ability of the Jinyang Sect is still very strong.

After the martial law order was issued, the city guards and law enforcement teams moved at high speed, and the elite monks in the market were also organized, with teams of ten and battalions of fifty people, and they set foot on the city gate positions respectively.

The rest of the elderly, weak, women and children must stay in their residences and are not allowed to go out at will. Those who hinder the resistance to the beast tide will be killed without mercy.

Chen Xuan told Jiang Yingxue to stay at home and leave the poisonous flame golden silkworm to protect her.

At this time, Chen Xuan stood on the wall of the west gate of the market, looking at the shantytown cultivators who were fighting desperately with the monsters, with mixed feelings.

There were 40,000 to 50,000 casual cultivators in the shantytowns of the west city alone, most of whom were in the early stage of Qi training.

Opposite them, there were tens of thousands of black-tailed demon wolves and phantom leopards, with endless sight, fangs and claws, fierce eyes, and the meat residue of human monks still remained between their claws.

The number was about the same, but there were many medium-grade monsters and even some high-grade monsters among the black-tailed demon wolves and phantom leopards.

The foundation-building masters in the market only commanded the city guards, law enforcement teams, and the reserve team of independent cultivators from afar, and did not provide any help to the independent cultivators outside the shantytowns, leaving them to fend for themselves.

These low-level independent cultivators who rubbed spiritual energy in the outer part of the market not only had to pay three spirit stones in rent every year, but also had to serve as cannon fodder during the beast tide.

"Sir, these people outside can't be stopped!"

Chen Xuan couldn't bear it, and said to Elder Mo who was in charge of the defense of the West City.

Mo Xianliang glanced at Chen Xuan, shook his head slightly, and said: "It's just the vanguard of the beast tide, wait a little longer!"

Chen Xuan said no more.

He had tried his best.

"If it's just a beast tide of this scale, it's not a big deal. The tricky ones are still behind."

Another family foundation-building master Huang Yingcheng said softly, stroking his beard.

"Don't worry, we will let them into the city, but we have to resist them anyway."

Independent cultivator foundation-building master Zhao Feitao said with narrowed eyes.

That's right, the sect will not sacrifice all the independent cultivators in the shantytowns.

At least some should be left to serve as cattle and horses.

Chen Xuan thought about it and understood what the three foundation-building masters meant.

Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, cannon fodder against cannon fodder.

The main thing is consumption.

In the life-and-death struggle, the old and weak are eliminated, and the elites are naturally left.

For these monsters, it is a rare opportunity to eat the blood of the cultivators.

And for the casual cultivators in the shantytowns, isn’t it an opportunity to change their fate?

As long as you kill a monster, you can exchange it for merit or spirit stones and get a place to live in the market.

Survival or destruction is often just a matter of a moment.
