Chapter 668

The first close-quarters engagement ended just like that.

It was only for more than an hour, and the Liuyun Mountain side occupied a slight upper hand.

After all, the Clan Head, Su Wanjun, and Su Shi'an joined forces to kill six third-rank demon beasts, plus Su Fan later killed a third-rank demon beast.

In less than half a day, seven third-rank demon beasts were killed, while on the Liuyun Mountain side, only a few Purple Mansion cultivators were slightly injured.

According to the damage in their bodies, they would recover in about half a month.

After all, there were treasures brought back by Su Fan, as well as some spirit pills for recovering internal injuries.

Although they occupied the upper hand, for the demon army outside the array, it didn't have much significance. After all, seven third-rank demon beasts were killed, and there were still dozens of third-rank demon beasts outside.

In terms of Purple Mansion-level combat power, the Demon Race was always more powerful.

Moreover, the start and end of the beast tide were always controlled by those fourth-rank demon kings.

As long as those fourth-rank demon beasts did not retreat, the beast tide would probably continue, unless the demon army outside was completely wiped out.

But the possibility of this was simply too small.

Hundreds of thousands of demon armies, even if a Nascent Soul cultivator came to wipe them out, I'm afraid that even if his magic power was exhausted, he might not be able to kill them all completely.

However, killing seven third-rank demon beasts, and the inner cores of those demon beasts were also collected, which could refine seven furnaces of Foundation Establishment Pills.

The auxiliary spirit herbs for the Foundation Establishment Pill were now not lacking for the Su Family. After all, a medicine garden was opened on Liuyun Mountain, and even the main medicine for the Foundation Establishment Pill was planted in a patch.

Of course, that Golden Jade Ganoderma needs to become a thousand-year medicinal material, which still requires several hundred or even a thousand years.

On the contrary, auxiliary spirit herbs, many do not need a thousand years, some only need one or two hundred years.

In addition, they can also purchase a batch from the outside. Not only Zheng State, but neighboring nations also have channels.

These auxiliary spirit herbs for refining Foundation Establishment Pills are not very rare. Except for a few, most are very ordinary.

Many immortal cultivation families also plant them.

These immortal cultivation families also specifically develop this kind of medicine garden to earn spirit stones.

Seven furnaces of Foundation Establishment Pills, with Su Fan's alchemy level, it is estimated that he can refine at least forty-five Foundation Establishment Pills, and Lin Taihe is not bad, forty pills is definitely achievable.

After all, these years, he has refined not to mention a hundred furnaces, but thirty or fifty furnaces is no problem. Once, even the Yunyang Sect asked him to refine Foundation Establishment Pills.

Having refined so many times, he is also very proficient.

So everyone returned to the main hall this time, and these higher-ups were all very happy, and the other Foundation Establishment families and loose cultivators who were well-informed were even more excited.

So many Foundation Establishment Pills, although not yet refined, everyone knew that this was a matter of time.

With two alchemy masters present, they didn't worry about not having alchemists at all.

Foundation Establishment Pills, the attraction to those loose cultivators was simply too great.

So next, facing the demon beasts' offensive, these loose cultivators erupted with extreme passion.

One by one, as if they had been injected with chicken blood, their magic power was output desperately, and various magic techniques were thrown at the heads of the demon army outside the array.

This energy was even higher than that of the Su Family's disciples.

For a time, the demon army seemed to be suppressed.

It's just that the Su Family and the allied higher-ups were not too optimistic.

After a month of invasion, although the Four Symbols Primordial Array had not been broken, the cracks on the array disks were clearly visible.

Secondly, the spirit energy in the spirit pool was also constantly decreasing.

These consumptions were visible to the naked eye.

The demon army, although it also lost one hundred and sixty or seventy thousand, still had an army of three hundred thousand.

In addition, the losses of the higher-ups of the demon army were not great.

This is the most headache-inducing thing.

In the main hall of Liuyun Peak, after the Second Elder finished saying the situation, the higher-ups present all looked at each other.

They didn't expect that the consumption of this month would be so great.

The previous estimation now seemed too optimistic.

According to the spirit stones in the Su Family's treasury, they simply couldn't hold on for a month.

When the spirit energy in the spirit pool was exhausted, the Four Symbols Primordial Array would probably be broken.

Even if they relied on those tens of thousands of cultivators to act as the spirit pool, they couldn't hold on for long, and that would be even more dangerous for those cultivators.

Now everyone maintains the Four Symbols Primordial Array, just relying on a trace of mental power to connect to the array and communicate with the spirit pool.

And once the array disk is connected to their magic power, then the external array receiving any impact is equivalent to impacting themselves.

Although the impact will be shared by every cultivator in the end, the impact received will not be very great, but the demon beasts outside are constantly impacting.

Probably there must be cultivators who cannot hold on. At that time, the losses will be very large.

This kind of situation has happened in previous beast tides. The array guarding the market, because the spirit pool was exhausted, could only rely on cultivators to maintain the array in person.

As a result, they were impacted by demon beasts, suffered heavy casualties, and finally could not maintain the great array, and the demon army broke through the array, and the entire market became a dead zone.

So now the Su Family's Liuyun Mountain is also facing such a situation.

Facing the beast tide for the first time, especially facing the beast tide alone, the Su Family's preparations still seemed insufficient.

In fact, it can only be said that the Su Family didn't expect this beast tide to come so fiercely.

In the past, beast tides were at most four or five hundred thousand armies, and they would also divide a portion to attack Zheng State's other defenses.

And this time, just Liuyun Mountain had an army of five hundred thousand.

And there were three Golden Core-level fourth-rank demon kings, as well as dozens of third-rank demon beasts presiding.

So the consumption of Liuyun Mountain was faster than in the past.

"Everyone, discuss what to do?"

Once the Four Symbols Primordial Array is broken, they will have to face the demon army directly. Although there are only two or three hundred thousand demon tribes left now, for Liuyun Mountain, it is still a very terrifying number.

The tens of thousands of cultivators on the mountain, even if they rely on the arrays gathered by each, can fight one against many, but the losses at that time will also be massive.

More importantly, what will happen to the mortal towns at that time?

Although demon beasts are not as fond of mortals as demonic cultivators, demon beasts prefer to devour immortal cultivators. After all, immortal cultivators cultivate, and their bodies have been tempered and contain spirit energy. For demon beasts, devouring them is equivalent to devouring spirit medicine, which can be used for cultivation.

Mortals don't have much effect, but once there are many, they also have a little effect.

Once the array is broken, hundreds of thousands of demon armies, even if they divide a little bit, for the mortals at the foot of Liuyun Mountain, that is also a huge disaster.

In the main hall, as the Second Elder's words fell, the atmosphere became increasingly solemn.

They didn't know Su Fan's strength, and the problems placed beside them were very big.

Not enough spirit stones, the array cannot hold on.
