183: Instantly kill a million level 3 beasts
Mianling Ghost Tree held the border defense layout map: "Baiyue City has arranged its main forces at the three city gates, leaving the two ends of the city wall in weak positions. We will use those as our points of attack."
"Also, let the Third-level Beasts clear the mines first and break through the humans' four lines of defense."
On this defense map, the first line was a poison attack, the second was explosions, the third was a landslide trap, and the fourth was Demonic Plants.
The human head on the Mianling Ghost Tree opened its mouth: "Charge, my minions! When you cross the forest zone, remember to hold your breath and avoid the poison mist defense line..."
Its voice was mixed with sonic effects, serving as a form of brainwashing.
The original Yao Beasts of the Baiyue Mountain Range were precisely under the control of the Mianling Ghost Tree.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
"Attack!"
"Attack!"
The shouts of killing shook heaven and earth, like rolling thunder, passing through the torrential rain and echoing through the skies.
The Third-level Beasts began their charge, and the Fourth-Level Earth-Splitting Demon Worm Kings also traveled underground to destroy those four lines of defense.
Their figures, accompanied by swirling dust, spread out like a rising tide, possessing an unstoppable momentum that was awe-inspiring.
If it weren't for the thirty or so figures standing tall in the sky, blocking the front, the guards on the city walls would have truly been scared witless.
"Hah!" With a long howl, the fifth-tier Evil Beasts also launched their attack.
City Master took the lead to meet them: "fifth-tier high-rank Evil Beasts, come and fight!"
Facing the City Master were the Four-Winged Moth King and the Bloodthirsty Moss King.
The Bloodthirsty Moss King was the first among the Evil Beasts to promote to fifth-tier. It only needed blood to promote infinitely.
War was its greatest baptism; it was already at fifth-tier, rank 3.
Even though they were both two ranks lower than the City Master's beasts, it was absolutely impossible for the City Master to take them down in a short time.
Whether it was the Four-Winged Moth King's [Flesh Transfer] or the Bloodthirsty Moss King's [Bloodthirsty Proliferation], both could give the City Master a run for his money.
Xing Shaoshan did not face the Four-Horned Sheep Demon Monster again, though his eyes turned red with rage upon seeing his enemy.
But he knew he had no advantage, so he left it to Jiang Nan, who possessed the Soul System, while he faced the Calamity Heart Lantern Monster.
Just like that, the enemy's fifth-tier Evil Beasts and the Human Race's King-level Beast Tamers headed to another battlefield.
Within a short period, neither side could do anything to the other.
Even on Tuoba Zhiyuan's side, a victor wouldn't be decided so quickly.
In the end, the battle would still depend on whether the Fourth-Level Beasts army could break through the Baiyue City defense line.
If there was any fifth-tier combat power left, it was the enemy's Mianling Ghost Tree and Chen Fei on the Human Race's side.
Before long, the vanguard of a million Third-level Beasts finally reached the first line of defense.
However, the so-called poison mist did not appear, and the Third-level Beasts passed through safely.
They hadn't even touched the subsequent defense lines before they reached the foot of the city wall.
The Mianling Ghost Tree frowned: Could it be that their defense lines have failed? The Human Race shouldn't make such a low-level mistake.
Cheng Jingjing and Chen Qingyun naturally wouldn't make such a low-level mistake.
The reason they let these Third-level Beasts pass was because of a sentence from Chen Fei: "Leave the Third-level Beasts to me; the defense lines should target the Fourth-Level Beasts."
So now, Cheng Jingjing and Chen Qingyun both looked at Chen Fei to see how he would handle it.
If it really didn't work, they would take action immediately.
"Little Gu, you can let all the Third-Generation Bugs out now."
Cheng Jingjing, Chen Qingyun, as well as Ximen Lingyun, Jiang Yiyi, and the others behind Chen Fei, saw a scene they would never forget for the rest of their lives.
Swarms upon swarms of Gu insects flew out from Chen Fei's body.
If it were just tens of thousands, they had seen that before.
The problem was that this time was different from before; it wasn't tens of thousands, but millions.
Dense and packed, they blotted out the sun!
Those who didn't know better would have thought these Gu insects were also part of the enemy army.
Most importantly, most of these Gu insects were at Fourth-Level rank 1 or rank 2, definitely not weak.
Shen Lin and Tang Jian exclaimed at the same time: "Holy crap, Brother Chen, how many Spirit Stones did you spend to Cultivate these Gu insects?"
Chen Fei did a rough calculation: the proceeds from the spirit ore shop, plus the gains from the Lingfu Secret Realm, and the Spirit Stones earned from selling the Spirit Taming Art, altogether... "Altogether, it cost about nearly two hundred million High-Grade Spirit Stones."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's head spun.
A commoner without talent might earn around 100,000 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones a year.
A Beast Tamer from an average family might earn several hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones a year.
A prestigious family with a deep foundation might have an annual income exceeding a hundred million.
However, that was a family, the result of many people's hard work, not just one person.
Yet Chen Fei had spent a family's entire annual income just to raise Gu.
A ruthless man!
A peerless ruthless man!
Chen Qingyun and his wife were also shocked: "Damn, the Spirit Stones we've earned in our lifetime aren't as much as our son spends in one go!"
Ximen Lingyun also sucked in a breath of cold air: "Incredible, this is truly incredible."
"I heard before that Chen Fei was a pay-to-win tycoon, but I didn't pay much attention then."
"Only at this moment do I truly understand the weight of those words."
What they didn't know was that these Spirit Stones were only for hatching the Gu insects and increasing the Spiritual Qi density of the Xirang Space, not even counting the resources for the Four Beasts' upgrades.
Otherwise, a single void immortal crystal alone couldn't be bought without over a hundred million High-Grade Spirit Stones.
And it was the kind that was priceless and unavailable on the market!
So when Xing Shaoshan said he would work for Chen Fei for a lifetime, he really wasn't joking.
Chen Fei improved quickly, but the resources he poured in were truly immense.
These five million Third Generation Gu Worms naturally had a significant gap compared to Little Gu.
Their strength couldn't compare to Little Gu, and their proficiency couldn't keep up either.
Fortunately, they Cultivated every day under the Nine Heavens Enlightenment Willow and in triple Spiritual Qi density.
Although they didn't have Flawless Grade skills like Little Gu, they still had many Peak level skills.
Especially [Kiss of Deadly Poison], which had reached the Peak level.
As five million Third Generation Gu Worms simultaneously released Insoluble Poison.
That scene was magnificent.
[Killed Third-level rank 6 Wangchuan Demon Ape, slaughter value +120.]
[Killed Third-level rank 9 Silver-Horned Viper, slaughter value +150.]
[...]
One could see the Third-level Beasts falling in swaths, except for some with strong poison resistance, or those from the Ghost System, zombies, or Necromancy System that were not afraid of poison.
But even if they survived, the Third Generation Gu Worms had a second wave of attacks, using the explosion effect of glazed immortal crystals to carry out the slaughter.
The glazed immortal crystal itself was at the Saint Crystal level, surpassing the crystals that could be mastered in the Spirit Taming Continent.
Its explosive power was naturally extraordinary.
Coupled with the fact that the Third Generation Gu Worms were all at the Fourth-Level early stage, almost no Third-level Beasts could withstand the explosion of the glazed immortal crystals under this operation.
The vanguard of a million Third-level Beasts was actually wiped out in an instant, which was extremely exaggerated.
[Slew 100,000 Third-level Beasts, slaughter value +13.1 million.]
[Slew 1,000,000 Third-level Beasts, slaughter value +125.8 million.]
Looking at the slaughter value exceeding a hundred million, even Chen Fei was moved.
It turned out that there was no need to specifically slaughter fifth-tier beasts to accumulate slaughter value.
When the quantity reached a certain level, even slaying Third-level Beasts would yield a considerable income...
