Chapter 161 Monster Invasion
Looking at the ordinary people around him who were fleeing in panic, Ximen Tianyu's expression became serious.
Having lived in Tushan, he knew that the Monster Alliance had been preventing monsters from harming humans without reason, but why, now that the Monster Alliance had entered the scene, could these monsters still attack human villages so recklessly?
Feeling more and more suspicious, he quickened his pace and followed closely behind those monks in Taoist robes, trying to find the truth behind it all.
But it is gratifying that although these monks are few in number, they are all agile and their swords are as bright as dragons. They are obviously the elite disciples of the sect. They not only protect the fleeing people, but also turn back from time to time to repel the monsters that try to break through the defense line with precise spells and swordsmanship. Ximen Tianyu noticed that these monks cooperated well with each other, and obviously had deep friendship and practical experience.
As they went deeper into the forest, the evil spirit around them became stronger and stronger. The forest at night seemed to have turned into a giant mouth that was ready to devour anyone, ready to devour all living things at any time. But even so, these monks did not retreat at all. There was only determination and resoluteness in their eyes.
Ximen Tianyu couldn't help but admire them when he saw them doing this. No matter what their purpose was, they always stood up when the people were hurt.
However, Ximen Tianyu's caution did not disappear. He knew that the real challenge might be yet to come. These monsters were so rampant, there must be a bigger conspiracy behind them. He had to find the mastermind behind all this, in order to completely save these innocent people.
At the same time, Ximen Tianyu also suspected that the ancient relic related to this incident might be the treasure that caused his parents' death.
Suddenly, there was a fierce fighting sound in front of him, accompanied by waves of demonic roars and the roar of magic weapons colliding. Ximen Tianyu immediately accelerated and rushed to the center of the battle. He saw several monks fighting with several demons of various shapes, and the air was filled with thick blood and demonic energy.
Ximen Tianyu did not hesitate and immediately joined the battle. He used his magic power and turned into a shadow, instantly appearing behind a monster. He slapped it with one palm, and the powerful force directly knocked the monster several feet away. Then, he quickly turned around and helped other monks resist the monster's attack.
Although Ximen Tianyu no longer harbors hatred and prejudice against monsters after living in Tushan for some time, he will not show mercy to monsters that rush over to attack ordinary people.
But these monsters were obviously not easy to deal with. They were numerous and powerful, and even these monks found it difficult to fight against them. Especially one of the monsters was huge, covered with black scales, with eyes flashing green light. Every roar was accompanied by a deafening roar, as if it could shake the entire forest.
Ximen Tianyu's eyes fixed, he recognized the origin of this monster - the black scale beast, a very rare and powerful monster, its scales are so hard that ordinary magic weapons can hardly hurt it. It seems that this battle is much more difficult than imagined.
Just as he was about to go all out to deal with the black-scaled beast, a monk in Taoist robes suddenly shouted, "Brother, be careful behind you!" Upon hearing this, Ximen Tianyu stretched out his body and quickly moved sideways. He saw a black shadow passing by his body. It was another extremely fast monster. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been in danger.
"Thanks for the reminder!" Ximen Tianyu nodded to the monk and was secretly alert. He knew that in such an environment, any negligence could be fatal.
The battle lasted for a long time, and both sides suffered some damage. Ximen Tianyu wanted to use his pure Yangyan several times, but in order not to cause trouble, he suppressed this power abruptly.
After all, the Pure Yangyan is a lost flame. Once revealed, it is likely to cause a sensation and may even expose his true identity.
However, at this moment, a more powerful demonic aura came from the depths of the forest, making the atmosphere of the entire battlefield depressing. Ximen Tianyu's face changed, and he knew that the real challenge was coming. Sure enough, as the demonic aura approached, a huge demon shadow slowly walked out of the woods. Its figure blocked out the sky and the sun, as if it was the master of the forest. Ximen Tianyu looked closely and found that it was a demon king - the Nether Wolf King!
The appearance of the Nether Wolf King made everyone present feel unprecedented pressure. Its eyes were cold and deep, as if it could see through the deepest fears in people's hearts. Ximen Tianyu took a deep breath. He knew that this battle was not only to protect the people, but also to uncover the truth behind it all and avenge his parents.
"Brothers, let us fight side by side and never let this demon king succeed!"
The leader of this group of monks raised his arms and shouted loudly. His voice was firm and powerful, as if it could penetrate the clouds and inspire everyone's morale.
The monks responded one after another. They knew that this battle would determine the fate of the entire village, so they joined hands and prepared to charge at the Nether Wolf King.
At this moment, a crack suddenly appeared in the sky, and a beam of brilliant light poured down from it, illuminating the entire mountain forest. All the monsters seemed to be frightened by this light, and they stopped attacking and showed fear.
It is obvious that the strong men from the Taoist Alliance have arrived.
As the light faded, a Demon Alliance elder wearing a gorgeous robe and holding a golden scepter slowly landed in front of the crowd with a dozen Taoist monks. He looked around majestically, and his eyes finally stopped on Ximen Tianyu and the monk next to him.
"The Navoli Brotherhood?"
The Taoist elder immediately recognized the organization to which the cultivator next to Ximen Tianyu belonged - the Navoli Brotherhood. This organization, which was not recognized by Taoism, has developed rapidly in recent years. With its unique training methods and fearless style of doing things, it has won the respect and following of many people in the gap between demons and humans.
When the leader of the Navoli Brotherhood saw the people from the Taoist Alliance coming, a look of disdain appeared on his face, and without saying a word, he flew away with his group of monks.
Ximen Tianyu looked around and finally caught up with the monks of the Navoli Brotherhood.
"Brother, why don't you act together with the people from the Dao League?"
As soon as Ximen Tianyu caught up, the leader of the Navoli Brotherhood spoke to him.
"Senior, you may not know that I am a casual cultivator. I am used to living a carefree life and do not intend to join the Dao League, an organization with so many rules and regulations."
