Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal Chapter 222 - 152: The Beast Tide Retreats, Rewards and Hono

The death of the Cyan Snake caused imdiate chaos among the thousands of demon beasts below, who no longer cared about the city walls in front of them and fled in all directions.

Seeing this opportunity, Zhou Xun naturally wouldn’t let it slip away and imdiately ordered an attack.

"The beast horde is retreating, everyone, kill the demons with !"

With a loud shout, he jumped off the city wall towards the Tier Two High-Grade Demon Snake he had his eyes on.

As he jumped down, he swiped his hand over his storage bag at his waist, and a flash of golden light appeared.

A completely golden wheel floated above his head, following him forward.

Zhou Xun charged ahead and within monts arrived in front of the demon snake,

which was a full ten zhang in size and entirely black.

At that mont, it lay on the ground, struggling to crawl away into the distance.

Monts ago, it bore the brunt of the aftershock from the magical combat of a True Pill Cultivator and was gravely injured.

Strike its weak point to take its life.

Zhou Xun showed no rcy, flicking his finger.

A buzzing sound ensued.

The golden wheel left an afterimage as it sliced toward the snake’s neck.

Sensing the power of the golden wheel, the demon snake struggled to evade, but its wounds were too severe, making its movent extrely slow.

Its vertical pupils showed a look of human-like despair.

In an instant, accompanied by a sizzling sound, the demon snake was split in two, its head severed, and it died instantly.

Zhou Xun patted his waist with his hand and took out a bottle about half a foot in size.

He cast a spell on the bottle, causing it to expand instantly to several zhang in size, hovering in front of the severed part of the demon snake, its mouth aid directly at the wound.

Soon a suction force erged out of nowhere, drawing all of the demon snake’s blood into the bottle.

In a brief mont, the ten-zhang-sized demon snake was completely drained.

The blood of the Tier Two High-Grade Demon Snake contained extrely rich pure spiritual qi, a top-notch material for making spirit ink.

Next, Zhou Xun fiddled around the head area, eventually digging out a Tier Two Demon Pill the size of an infant’s fist.

This was a Tier Two High-Grade Demon Pill, highly valuable. He took out a jade box, placed it inside, and sealed it with a Sealing Spirit Talisman before safely storing it in his storage bag.

Finally, he collected its snake skin, venomous fangs, venom sacs, flesh, and other parts, sorting them into categories for storage.

The demon snake’s sizable body naturally ant a large amount of snake skin.

Even with lesser quality, Zhou Xun estimated he could obtain at least several dozen sheets of Tier Two High-Grade Talisman Paper.

Only then did he have ti to look in other directions.

There were only four Tier Two High-Grade Demon Beasts on the West City Wall. Zhou Xun had slain one.

The remaining three were almost instantly killed under the attack of Master White Cloud and Liu Bo’an.

Soon, under the siege of over ten thousand cultivators and with the assistance of Master White Cloud and others, these over four thousand demon beasts were quickly wiped out.

And on the side of White Cloud Immortal City, only three perished.

They had rushed in too quickly and were attacked by Tier Two Demon Beasts.

After harvesting all the demon beasts, everyone quickly retreated into the Immortal City.

...

At the South City Wall, two Great Demons lingered afar with over ten thousand demon beasts lying in ambush.

"Xuan Lang, when the human Fake Pill cos out, you and I will charge out and kill him!"

"Hahaha, Huang Yuan, you’re right. Fake Pill Cultivators are such a delicacy; I’ve only tasted it once!"

The Xuan Lang Demon King, resembling a wild boar with a black body, spoke in human tongue, smacking his lips, as his two several-zhang-long sharp tusks glinted nacingly.

In front, the constant sound of rumbling did not cease.

Three Tier Two High-Grade Demon Beasts led thousands of little demons, attacking the South City Wall.

These were bait set by the two Great Demons.

Strangely, the cultivators on the South City Wall showed no intention of charging out.

After waiting a long ti, it remained the sa.

Just then, a loud boom erupted from the West City Gate.

The two Great Demons both looked over towards the source of the sound.

"Is this Qingpu making a move?" the Huang Yuan Demon King asked in puzzlent.

"Indeed, to maintain the illusion that we are still here, he is attacking with full force. Those human cultivators have no idea we’ve already moved here!"

The Xuan Lang Demon King gave a sinister laugh, his voice extrely unpleasant.

But the strange thing was, after a long ti had passed, the human cultivators at the South City Wall still hadn’t co out.

And the commotion from the West City Wall gradually faded, becoming extrely quiet.

"Sothing’s wrong. Why aren’t they coming out, and why has the West City Wall gone silent?" The Huang Yuan Demon King felt uneasy.

He imdiately summoned a Tier Two High-Grade Demon Wolf, instructing it to go to the West City Wall to gather information.

After about one incense stick’s ti, the demon wolf returned, bringing back a severely wounded Tier Two Earth Rock Rat.

Tier Two Demon Beasts have intelligence close to that of humans, though they cannot speak human languages, communication among demon beasts is still possible.

"Report what happened at the West City Gate, tell us everything!" the Xuan Lang Demon King demanded solemnly.

"Reporting to Lord Xuan Lang, Qingpu... Lord Qingpu has fallen!"

"What...impossible!"

Upon hearing the news of the Qingpu Demon King’s demise, the two Great Demons were in shock, releasing two waves of violent aura that dispersed in all directions.

Terror spread throughout the gathered demon beasts.

The Earth Rock Rat, trembling, recounted everything that had happened at the West City Gate.

After a long silence, the Huang Yuan Demon King was the first to speak.

"Xuan Lang, Qingpu was a formidable power, comparable to a Middle-Stage True Core Human Cultivator. I can’t believe he would fall so easily. I want to go see what’s happened at the West City Wall."

Xuan Lang Demon King nodded in agreent.

Soon, the multitude of demon beasts at the South City Wall retreated one after another towards the West City Wall.

"This...this cannot be..." Seeing the ground stained with blood and remnants of Qingpu Demon King’s aura, the two Great Demons’ expressions shifted instantly.

Based on their abilities, they could naturally infer what had occurred here.

"Qingpu... has fallen; how do we explain this to Master Cyan Profound!"

Qing Snake was not only their leader along this path but more importantly, Qingpu Demon King’s elder brother, the Qing Yu Demon King, was a Tier Three Middle-Grade Peak existence.

This beast tide was orchestrated by Qing Yu Demon King.

Now that his younger brother has fallen, how do they justify it?

After much deliberation, they finally decided to retreat and regroup with Qing Yu Demon King before making further plans.

...

In the Cyan Ape Hall.

Master White Cloud sat at the head, with Zhou Xun and other disciples seated on either side.

"Master, just as you predicted, ever since we slew that Tier Three Great Demon, the beast horde has retreated!"

"We have defeated the beast tide!"

Zuo Qifan personally sent soone to investigate.

Just yesterday, the beast horde retreated; now, there is not a single demon beast to be seen around White Cloud Immortal City.

Hearing this, everyone was overjoyed.

During the period of dealing with the beast tide, everyone had been in a state of constant tension, worrying daily about the fate that would await them if the Immortal City fell.

Everyone witnessed firsthand the fate of the Yinn Family cultivators on the West City Wall that day.

Even Foundation Establishnt Cultivators t with bloodshed.

Now, the shadows have completely lifted.

After a round of noisy celebration, Master White Cloud pressed both hands down, and the room grew much quieter.

"With the beast tide retreating, we must not let our guard down, as the scriptures record that such events could last a long ti, even several years!"

"Nevertheless, the retreat is a fact, and today’s main agenda is to reward those who have done ritorious deeds!"

With that, he turned his gaze toward Zhou Xun.
