357: Chapter 357 The Onslaught of Beasts (Fifty Updates) 357: Chapter 357 The Onslaught of Beasts (Fifty Updates) On the border of the Southern Wasteland, a majestic city emerged from the Earth, standing above the ground.

This is Desolate City, beyond which lies the Southern Wasteland Beast Domain.

Although the Wanyao Valley has always been located deep within the Southern Wasteland, remaining hidden from the Shenwu Continent, there are some demon beasts that occasionally attack martial artists.

Desolate City was therefore established to guard against these beasts.

Before this, Desolate City was guarded by the Ten Great Dynasties.

After the Long Family replaced the Ten Great Dynasties, Desolate City has been guarded by the Yanlong Dynasty.

Under normal circumstances, no demon beasts would dare to intrude willingly, so those who guarded Desolate City led a leisurely life.

“Roar,” “Awooo”…

In the morning, outside Desolate City, a series of beastly roars echoed and reverberated across the sky and earth, jolting awake all the citizens within Desolate City.

“A demon beast attack!

Inform the city lord quickly!”

The soldiers responsible for vigilance, upon seeing the dark mass of demon beasts approaching, had their expression change drastically.

“All men, brace yourselves against the demon beasts!”

At that point, a majestic voice resonated from the city, and then, a figure soared into the sky, hanging in mid-air.

This man was the lord of Desolate City, Zhang Kui, with a cultivation base at the Heavenly Martial Fifth Level.

Zhang Kui was initially a general.

After all the Ten Great Dynasties were conquered by the Long Family, he surrendered to them and is now responsible for guarding Desolate City.

“How could there be so many demon beasts attacking?”

Upon witnessing the dark surge of demon beasts in front of him, Zhang Kui’s expression drastically changed.

All around Desolate City, thousands of beasts were rushing towards them.

On the ground were charging beasts, and in the sky were flying demon beasts swooping down.

The weakest of them were Earth-level demon beasts, and there were also many Sky-level demon beasts, among which, there were Demon Kings.

The dark swarm of beasts caused even Desolate City to tremble.

“Roar!”

At that moment, a flying demon beast, ten fathoms long, appeared at the front of the million beast army, letting out a deafening roar that pained Zhang Kui’s eardrums.

“You, Demon King!”

Zhang Kui’s complexion changed drastically.

In the past, even if demon beasts attacked Desolate City, their numbers weren’t large, and they were mostly Earth-level demon beasts.

The strongest would not surpass the Fifth Level of Heavenly Stage.

Right now, the rushing million beast army outnumbered at least ten thousand, including numerous Sky-level demon beasts, and even the Demon King made an appearance.

“Retreat!”

Coming back to his senses from the shock, Zhang Kui bellowed, disregarding everything else, and began to flee from Desolate City.

Given the strength of him and his soldiers, they were utterly incapable of resisting the powerful onslaught of the million beast army—it was simply like a moth flying into a flame.

“Escape!”

At this point, Desolate City fell into chaos as everyone began to flee in a hurry.

“Roar!”

Just then, the Demon King roared again.

Its gigantic body made its way above Desolate City, and with a swipe of its claw, it created a huge opening in the fortified city wall.

Boom, boom, boom…

Immediately afterwards, the demon beast army launched its attack, wreaking havoc on Desolate City like an unstoppable torrent.

“Save me…”

“…”

Under the onslaught of the demon beast army, the citizens of Desolate City had no strength to resist and were mercilessly slaughtered.

Even Zhang Kui was stopped by a few flying demon beasts, and in no time, he was killed.

Under the assault of the demon beast army, in less than an hour, Desolate City was razed to the ground, reduced to ruins.

After destroying Desolate City, the demon beast army did not linger.

Instead, they continued their rampage towards the Yanlong Dynasty.

…

Ling Wu City.

“Wushuang, congratulations on your breakthrough in strength!”

Upon returning to Ling Wu City from the Transverse Mountain Range, Zhan Wushuang had gone into closed-door training immediately.

During this period, not only did he fully recover from his injuries, but he also broke through to the Fourth-Level Martial King, enhancing his strength.

“Big Brother, what’s the situation now?”

Zhan Wushuang asked.

“It’s very bad!”

Long Yan spoke solemnly, “The Netherworld Ghost Insects are erupting across the Shenwu Continent on a large scale.

It won’t take long before they reach the Yanlong Dynasty.

Currently, the Nether King Gu Poison is spreading and we cannot control it.

The Leng Family, Lanling City, and Wanyao Valley have remained silent, but if the insect tide attacks, even self-preservation will be difficult for the Yanlong Dynasty!”

For the past several days, he had been trying to dissolve the Nether King Gu Poison.

Despite trying various methods, he had made no progress.

Although True Yang Power could dissolve the Nether King Gu Poison, it was impossible to get everyone to cultivate the Nine Suns Divine Art, and even more impossible to personally cleanse everyone from the Nether King Gu Poison.

Even if he had the intentions to do so, it was not realistic – there were too many people infected with the Nether King Gu Poison.

Upon hearing this, Zhan Wushuang’s expressions grew grave.

He was aware of the horror of Netherworld Ghost Insects and the mysterious Leng Jiuyou.

“Yan’er, there’s terrible news!”

Just at that moment, a figure hurried in from the outside; it was Long Cangqiong.

“Grandpa, what happened?”

Long Yan’s brows furrowed, already prepared in his heart.

“Yan’er, there’s terrible news!”

Long Cangqiong said, “We just received news that Wanyao Valley has left Southern Wasteland, destroyed the Desolate City, and has declared war against the Five Great Powers as they intend to rule the Shenwu Continent!”

“What?”

Upon hearing this, both Long Yan and Zhan Wushuang instantly stood up, their expressions changed drastically.

“Grandpa, what exactly is going on?”

Long Yan quickly asked.

“The people from the forefront Pill King Hall just sent the news.

King Giant Ape has broken through to the Demon Venerable and gained control of the Sky Demon Tower.

Now the Four Great Demon Kings of Wanyao Valley are leading the Million Demon Beast Army to sweep through the Yanlong Dynasty in an attempt to rule the Shenwu Continent!”

Long Cangqiong said it all in one breath.

That was all he knew.

“Damn fools!”

Long Yan cursed.

He had assumed the Netherworld Ghost Insects had already erupted in the Yanlong Dynasty.

He never expected Wanyao Valley to kick them while they were down.

One Leng Jiuyou was already headache-inducing enough, and they still didn’t know how to deal with him.

Wanyao Valley, not even bothering to help fight the insect tide, was stabbing them in the back.

They were rubbing salt into the wound; Wanyao valley was despicable!

“King Giant Ape has no sense of timing!”

Zhan Wushuang didn’t expect King Giant Ape to act so inappropriately; the Netherworld Ghost Insects hadn’t even been dealt with yet.

Everyone was barely getting by, and King Giant Ape’s actions at this time undoubtedly hastened the downfall of Shenwu Continent.

“Yan’er, Wanyao Valley has to be stopped, or the first to suffer will be the Yanlong Dynasty!”

Long Cangqiong was burning with anxiety; as it stood, the Yanlong Dynasty was not strong enough to contend with Wanyao Valley.

The Million Demon Beast Army was sweeping across, and the Yanlong Dynasty was in its path.

If they cannot resist the Demon Beast Army, the Yanlong Dynasty might get decimated even before the insect tide strikes.

“Grandpa, don’t worry, I will personally go to stop Wanyao Valley’s army together with Guardian Lian!”

Long Yan said.

King Giant Ape had once been defeated by Lian Bubai.

After breaking through to the Demon Venerable, Lian Bubai had also broken through to the Martial Venerable, and suppressing King Giant Ape should not be a problem.

“That would be best!”

Long Cangqiong nodded slightly.

At this point, only Lian Bubai could turn the tide.

“Big Brother, I will go with you!”

Zhan Wushuang said.

He could help fight against the Demon Beast Army.

“Good!”

With Zhan Wushuang’s formidable strength, it would certainly help to have him there.
