Chapter 161: A thousand miles in a day, stepping into Dui Cheng

Long before receiving the news, Qian Wang had prepared everything.

Although he was the existence that acted as the anchor for Qian City, the fierce beasts had been soundly defeated and would not dare to return in the short term, so his remaining in Qian City would not have much of an impact.

As for those trivial matters after the battle and the distribution of resources!

He only needed to give clear instructions, and there would be people to carry them out step by step.

Coupled with Zhao Xuanfeng, a Martial King, personally sitting in command, even if some martial arts families harbored delusions, they would not dare to make any small moves.

Very quickly.

The two left Qian City.

They had no reservations and headed toward Dui Cheng at the fastest possible speed.

Along the way, Lu Li learned quite a bit more information.

Early this morning!

News arrived that Dui Cheng had been breached.

At the same time, the news also spread to the other cities.

But, everyone knew clearly.

At this moment, all eight cities were under siege by fierce beasts and had no power to provide support, while the experts of the Sheng Cheng were all supporting various cities and could not be mobilized for a time; if the ordinary Sheng Cheng army were to provide support, it was feared that Dui Cheng would be completely occupied by the fierce beasts before they even arrived.

The destruction of Dui Cheng!

Was only a matter of time!

"The nine cities of the human race live and die together. The breaching of Dui Cheng affects the entire human race. It is one thing that the other cities are unable to help themselves and cannot provide support, but Qian City still has spare strength. If we also do not go to rescue it, it will only harm ourselves in the end.

What's more, among the eight cities of Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui, Dui Cheng is right on the left side of Qian City. Once the fierce beasts completely occupy Dui Cheng, Qian City will likely immediately become the next target of the fierce beasts."

Qian Wang's voice came from the side.

Lu Li finally understood Qian Wang's determination to go personally.

The fierce beasts were powerful!

They had been at war with the human race for a hundred years!

Even if they occupied Dui Cheng, they would not stop their footsteps!

And the Sheng Cheng had Yu Sheng sitting in command. As long as that Mo Jiao Sheng did not defeat Yu Sheng for a day, the fierce beast army would not dare to attack recklessly. The remaining targets would only be the cities on the left and right.

Qian City was on the right!

And having recently soundly defeated the fierce beast army and killed the Heibai Longshe, it naturally attracted the fierce beasts' immense hatred.

There would be no accidents!

As long as the fierce beast army completely occupied Dui Cheng, they would attack Qian City.

"It's just..."

A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Lu Li's mouth.

"Are we really the only ones going to provide support?"

According to what Qian Wang said, the fierce beast army that breached Dui Cheng had at least five routes of beast king armies. Although he and Qian Wang were strong, they were far from being able to rout five routes of fierce beast armies!

If they went to provide support like this, they could only carry out a decapitation strike!

But once the decapitation strike failed!

Just those five routes of fierce beast armies would be enough to trap them all to death!

"Let us do our best!"

Qian Wang gave a bitter smile.

He moved forward at an even faster speed.

In the blink of an eye.

One day passed.

The two did not stop at all, finally crossing the heavy, endless wilderness and arriving a hundred miles outside Dui Cheng.

Dui Cheng was the same as Qian City!

With high walls and deep foundations, and a population of hundreds of millions!

Although they were a hundred miles away, they could still see the location of Dui Cheng's walls from afar.

"I wonder what the situation in Dui Cheng is like at this moment?"

Qian Wang muttered to himself softly.

As early as yesterday, he had received the news that Dui Cheng had been breached. A full day had passed, and the battlefield changed in an instant; he did not know what stage it had developed to.

"I fear it is not optimistic!"

Lu Li's expression was grave.

In the breeze a hundred miles away, he could even smell traces of a bloody scent.

That blood!

Belonged to the human race!

Qian Wang seemed to have sensed it too; he nodded and said in a deep voice, "Time is tight, let us act according to the plan."

"Good!"

Lu Li agreed.

He flashed and sneaked toward the direction of Dui Cheng.

And at this moment, Qian Wang took a step out, arriving above Dui Cheng, his entire body's aura instantly erupting to the extreme.

Boom—!

The heaven and earth shook violently!

Inside Dui Cheng, all the fierce beasts seemed to have stopped, and they all looked over.

"Wang Yuanqian has arrived here, all beast kings come to die!"

Beneath the vast sky.

Lu Li only heard a long roar from Qian Wang.

Then, a violent tremor resounded throughout the entire horizon.

Immediately following.

A giant beast's roar, carrying deep unwillingness, fell down.

Lu Li knew.

That was a beast king that had fallen.

The beast kings here did not know Qian Wang; with Qian Wang appearing alone, naturally there would be beast kings dissatisfied and challenging him. It was not surprising to have such a result. What followed would be the most difficult time of this battle.

Sure enough!

Although they were separated by a great distance!

But Lu Li still saw that those beast kings no longer appeared to challenge him, but only continuously urged the fierce beasts to besiege Qian Wang.

High above in the distant sky.

Dense swarms of fierce beasts almost wrapped Qian Wang!

They were fearless of death; even if they would be torn apart by the power Qian Wang released just by getting an inch closer, they still continuously moved forward.

Boom—!

The great battle continued.

Qian Wang almost attracted the attention of the entire fierce beast army.

Taking this opportunity!

Lu Li restrained his entire body's aura and quietly sneaked into Dui Cheng.

He knew that with Qian Wang's cultivation, even under the siege of so many fierce beasts, he was enough to hold on for a long time, so there was no need to worry too much.

What he needed to do now!

Was to find Shi Xiaoyuan at the fastest speed and gather the remaining power of Dui Cheng!

Only then would there be the power to fight!

Otherwise, relying on an individual alone, no matter how strong, one would be exhausted of their origin by the fierce beasts and die!

Stepping into Dui Cheng!

Lu Li moved even more carefully.

With the help of the Ghost Shadow Profound Body that had been deduced to the extreme, he quickly avoided the rampaging fierce beasts and entered the depths of Dui Cheng.

But along the way.

Lu Li felt as if he were in hell.

As far as the eye could see!

Everywhere were human corpses!

Blood flowed everywhere, severed limbs were all over the ground; those corpses, besides martial artists, were mostly the old, weak, sick, and disabled. The fierce beasts gnawed and killed wantonly; there was simply no humanity to speak of.

In the previous fierce beast battle, once the human army was defeated, I fear Qian City would have the same fate.

"Hoo!"

Lu Li took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart.

Although Dui Cheng was adjacent to Qian City, there was not much news exchange between the two. Even Qian Wang did not know much about Dui Cheng, and Dui Cheng was also vast beyond compare. Relying on him alone to find Shi Xiaoyuan was extremely difficult.

"Must find someone to ask."

Lu Li's gaze flickered.

Although Dui Cheng had been breached, it had only been one day!

The fierce beasts were far from completely occupying Dui Cheng, and there were still a large number of human experts resisting. Just now, while sneaking carefully, he had encountered several waves of resisting humans, but time was tight, so he did not take the initiative to appear and make contact.

Now it seemed that not making contact would not work!

Thinking this way.

Lu Li's perception spread everywhere.

Very quickly, a fierce battle appeared within his perception.

"Over there!"

Lu Li's figure flashed.

And he headed rapidly toward the front left.

A moment later.

Lu Li arrived before a quiet small courtyard.

"Boom!"

The fierce battle inside was still continuing.

Lu Li quietly entered it and saw a woman surrounded by three fierce beasts.

The woman had Grandmaster cultivation!

Those three fierce beasts were exactly the same!

With the woman fighting three alone, she was gradually unable to hold on.

"Roar!"

The three fierce beasts roared, their eyes all revealing a crazy, bloodthirsty color. They each exerted their physical power to the extreme, waving their sharp beast claws together, attacking the woman rapidly.
