Zhou Yuanli nodded, dutifully accepting this task without hesitation.

On the lookout tower, he expanded his voice with Spirit Power, giving orders as the commander.

Before the Beast Tide was fully gathered, he promptly dispatched teams of cultivators to kill the vanguard Demon Beasts while they were scattered.

Under the dark night, the prelude to the slaughter began.

As cultivators fought in coordinated teams.

The scattered, disorganized Demon Beasts stood no chance against them. Their Magic Tools, whirling through the air, often entailed a large splash of fresh blood.

The smell of blood and guts grew increasingly pungent.

Sima Huimang stood at the rear, holding her Magic Tool, also prepared to face any Demon Beasts that might charge in.

She looked around, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Hasn’t Chief Luo Chen and Hall Master Wang Yuan come out yet?”

Liu Qiang shook his head, “The array in the Chief’s room has been activated all this time, and there has been no response to my Sound Transmission Talisman.”

“As for Hall Master Wang Yuan…”

Just as he was speaking, Zhou Yuanli’s urgent shout rang out from the top of the tower.

The Beast Tide is imminent, everyone be careful!”

“All the cultivators outside, return and defend your positions!”

In a blink of an eye, the cultivators still wandering outside for hunting, flew back like homing birds.

They landed on the tall city walls, their hearts racing.

Benefiting from the battle experience against the Fu Clan, and witnessing the defensive power of Fu Family’s Wu Fort, Luo Chen Creed had expanded its city walls in the same fashion.

Built against the mountain, with the valley as the center.

For cultivators, this wasn’t difficult.

The only thing they lacked was the Fu Clan’s ability to infuse their Wu Fort with talismans.

Nevertheless, Luo Chen Creed had its own Five Elements Top Grade Array. For a short while, it could withstand even a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator.

This was precisely why the cultivators of the Luo Chen Creed Battle Hall were not panicking entirely.

However, seeing the increasing number of Demon Beasts outside, everyone’s hearts started pounding.

A hundred!

Two hundred!

Three hundred!

In the darkness, the screaming of monkeys became more and more urgent.

By the end, it seemed like deafening roars from thousands of beasts.

Even though they were aware that there were only two to three hundred small- scale Beast Tides outside, the fear brought by the monstrous Demon Qi was daunting!

Instantly, many cultivators’ gazes fell on Zhou Yuanli and Sima Huiniang. One was responsible for instructing the battle formation, the other had the power to determine the direction of Luo Tian Creed as the President.

Zhou Yuanli’s face was harsh, showing no fear whatsoever.

This sort of situation wasn’t his first encounter.

It was just another battle after all.

Sima Huiniang looked somewhat pale, having only run smaller operations before, she had never experienced a battle on this scale.

If it was before, she would have fled without any hesitation, taking her brothers with her.

But now, she was the President of Luo Tian Creed.

A position equivalent to the sect leader within other sects.

How could she flee in the face of battle?

Taking a deep breath, Sima Huiniang sternly said, “Everyone, prepare for battle!”

Behind us is Luo Tian Creed, which holds all our hard work from the past half year, and our dependents who rely on us.”

“This battle, we must not retreat!”

Hearing her words, the cultivators looked at each other.

Still, some were thinking of fleeing.

The Beast Tide was terrifying, but it only had a scale of two to three hundred.

If they dispersed and ran towards the shantytown area, the casualties would not be that severe.

Sima Huiniang sensed this atmosphere almost instantly.

She flew into the air, looked down at the cultivators, and asked,

“Can you bear to abandon the foundation that was so hard to establish?”

“Flee? Where exactly can you escape to?”

“The substantial salary that Chief Luo Chen pays you every month, do you think it is for you to have enough energy to run away at crucial moments?”

“I tell you, without Luo Tian Creed, there isn’t a power outside that would offer you such attractive conditions.”

“I’ll cut the crap.”

I’ll say just one thing! For this battle, each Demon Beast killed will be counted as one Merit Point! Five Merit Points can be exchanged for two hundred Spirit Stones. With ten Merit Points, you can exchange for a Technique at the Merits Hall. If you get over twenty points, you will be directly rewarded with an Ascendant Grade Magic Tool!”

At her last words, the crowd was suddenly stirred.

To get an Ascendant Grade Magic Tool, one only needed to kill twenty Demon Beasts!

In the small-scale Beast Tide outside, there were many weak First Order Demon Beasts.

Most of them were Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivators who weren’t particularly afraid.

In an instant, everyone’s eyes turned red.

What appeared outside suddenly didn’t seem like Demon Beasts anymore, but piles of Spirit Stones and Magic Tools!

Finally, the morale was lifted.

Sima Huiniang heaved a sigh of relief.

It was not a family or a sect’s power after all; there wasn’t enough unity.

Faced with great distress, everyone wants to run.

Words like accomplishments and family bonds are empty talk.

Only binding them with benefits can drive the cultivators.

“Hall Master Murong, it will be your task to calculate the Merits during the battle.”

Murong Qmglian was stunned, does this mean she was not intended for battle?

Qin Liangchen next to her squeezed her hand lightly.

She immediately nodded in agreement.

All preparations were now complete.

The Beast Tide outside the city was at the gates.

Then!

“Fight!”

Following Zhou Yuanli’s order, all the Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivators of Luo Tian Creed, mainly from the Battle Hall, joined the fight.

“Kill!”

Flying Swords were omnipresent, killing a weak Explosive Monkey in the vast Beast Tide in the blink of an eye.

The harvest of the cultivator revealed a ferocious smile.

Lower Order Demon Beasts are not really strong.

They have no strong body, most of them can’t fly, and their attacks are not remarkable, let alone intelligent tactics.

The reason they were hard to kill before was that they were in the dense mountains and swamps.

The complex terrain made it hard to guard against them.
