Chapter 71 The Arrival of the Fierce Beast Lord

Gu Yuan looked at the phantom of the fierce beast exuding endless ferocity before him, his face filled with shock. This was the first time he had witnessed the power of a battle formation.

He felt it was no weaker than the might of Sword God Qin Wudao he had experienced when receiving archery training.

He never expected that formations could achieve the strength of a seventh-tier expert. His desire to learn formations deepened. No, after the Martial Arts League ended, he would immediately seek out Old Wang to study formation knowledge.

He wanted to learn about teleportation formations and powerful formations, which would be very convenient for ambushing others. He chuckled.

"Attack!"

Roar.

The blood-colored phantom of the fierce beast let out a sky-shattering roar as the army advanced. The blood-colored beast also began to run miraculously, its eyes bursting with red light, extending tens of meters behind it, exuding a ferocious aura.

"Everyone, follow me to slay the fierce beasts!" The general on the city wall gave the order and leaped directly from the hundred-meter-high wall. True qi appeared on the surface of his body, allowing him to glide to the forefront of the beast tide.

With a single saber strike, ten meters of saber energy flew out, directly killing a large area of fierce beasts.

On the city wall, all the soldiers, except for those who had to stay behind, drew their long sabers and jumped off the wall. Here, the minimum requirement to be a soldier was the True Qi realm, which already allowed for brief flight, so there was no danger.

Gu Yuan and the other two exchanged glances and nodded. Gu Yuan took the lead and leaped off the city wall, his body constantly changing as he glided.

Blood-red patterns appeared on his skin, exuding a bursting aura. Muscles bulged like cast iron, and blood-red flames began to burn on Gu Yuan's body, accompanied by wisps of electric light.

Gu Yuan directly activated his strongest form. The power of this transformation was even greater than before, charging down with surging blood qi.

"Command: The strength of the three mountains and five peaks, all bestowed upon me!"

In a similar situation, Wu Gui once again summoned the power of the three mountains and five peaks, merging it into himself. His body rapidly expanded and grew taller, reaching a height of three meters. His skin turned from its original fair and tender color to earth yellow, and a brown mountain mark appeared on his forehead. Overwhelming energy swept in all directions.

Qin Erlang, standing beside him, watched the scene with unparalleled visual impact, his eyelids twitching slightly. Although he had seen it once before, he still couldn't accept the sight of Young Master Xiaoyao transforming into a muscular monster.

"It's my turn." Qin Erlang took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and a powerful aura of controlling human fortune and misfortune emanated from within his body.

His originally two-meter-tall frame grew another twenty centimeters, and his muscles swelled, becoming even more powerful. The absorption of Myriad Beast Liquid last time had further improved his physique.

He opened his eyes, which were completely black. A flash appeared in his hand, and his Fangtian Huaji materialized. He casually twirled the halberd.

He slightly crouched, then exerted force like a cannonball, launching himself straight into the beast tide.

Gu Yuan's hand produced liquid metal, which transformed into the original form of Qiushui. The saber blade was covered with lightning.

Boom!

With a dull roar, the ground within a five-meter radius trembled violently. The ground was deeply sunken by Gu Yuan's impact, and countless cracks spread like a spiderweb. The fierce beasts around them were even unsteady from the shock!

His qi and blood surged like a volcanic eruption, and countless lightning snakes danced, electrocuting the surrounding fierce beasts into charcoal!

"Kun Xiang - Earth River Cart!"

Gu Yuan stomped his foot down, and the surrounding land became like a swamp, trapping all the nearby fierce beasts, rendering them immobile.

Gu Yuan raised Qiushui in his hand, and a winding electric light flashed, killing all the trapped fierce beasts.

After leaving behind a pile of fierce beast corpses, Gu Yuan surveyed the battlefield. The main force of the beast tide was attacking the blood-red giant fierce beast formed by the Demon Extermination Legion. The remaining ones were intercepted by other soldiers who had descended. Not a single fierce beast had broken through the human defense line.

This was also because the fierce beasts were not of high level, mostly first, second, and third-tier. Even fourth-tier fierce beasts were rare. Gu Yuan estimated that the one controlling the beast tide was at most a fifth or sixth-tier fierce beast.

A killing intent flashed in Gu Yuan's eyes. He slightly bent his body and suddenly erupted with speed, charging towards the area where the fierce beasts were concentrated.

Wu Gui's three-meter-tall massive body fell from a hundred meters high, and the impact directly crushed a third-tier fierce beast into a meat patty!

Wu Gui's face was contorted with madness. It seemed that every time he entered this state, he underwent some change, becoming frenzied and bloodthirsty!

Wu Gui stomped forward, and the ground beneath him trembled violently. Immensely powerful force erupted, creating a circular pit within a five-meter radius. The surrounding ground instantly cracked, and碎石 (suì shí - shattered stones) continuously splashed. Earth-yellow spiritual light gathered in front of his body, forming a shield as tall as himself.

Like a savage behemoth, he charged forward, with unparalleled impact. The fierce beasts in his path were like chicks, being struck and their bones shattering, their bodies flying like tattered sacks.

Qin Erlang, holding his Fangtian Huaji, landed on a pile of fierce beasts. He swept his halberd, unleashing several zhang of black halberd energy. The fierce beasts struck were directly split in two, with blood and internal organs spilling everywhere.

Qin Erlang's body gracefully flipped, lightly tapping on the corpses of the slain fierce beasts, and he soared into the air again. His Fangtian Huaji continuously swept, killing fresh fierce beasts one after another, exuding an invincible aura.

Roar!

A beast's roar echoed across the battlefield!

"What is this?!" Gu Yuan looked up in surprise, his gaze fixed on the rear of the beast tide. A ferocious giant tiger, over twenty meters tall, with purple fur and crystalline wings on its back, was slowly approaching, exuding the aura of a sixth-tier expert.

"This is a sixth-tier fierce beast lord, the Purple Gold Lion." Gu Yuan's eyes widened. He quickly retreated. Qin Erlang and Wu Gui, who had been closely watching Gu Yuan, saw this and abandoned their attacks on the fierce beasts, following Gu Yuan's steps and leaving the battlefield.

At this moment, the commander on the battlefield also saw the Purple Gold Lion King. "Everyone retreat! Quickly!!!"

The voice, transmitted through true qi, spread across the battlefield. Except for the Demon Extermination Legion, all other soldiers retreated behind the city wall.

Rumble!

The metal gate closed tightly, leaving only the Demon Extermination Legion outside. Such a practiced movement indicated that this was not the first time. Gu Yuan mused.

"Human race, you are to die!" The Purple Gold Beast King spoke human language. As a sixth-tier fierce beast lord, how could it not have refined the hyoid bone in its throat?

Its streamlined muscles bulged, and its wings fluttered, transforming into a purple light that shot directly at the blood-red giant beast formed by the Demon Extermination Legion.

"Die!"

In an instant, it arrived before the blood-red phantom of the fierce beast. Its claws were covered with dense purple demonic energy, crushing the air and striking downwards at the blood-red phantom with great power.
