Chapter Thirty-Five: Beast Summoning Charm
Dropped to eleventh place on the new book chart, so embarrassing! That thing, you know what I mean, give me some points!
At this time, the people of Xiao's family were casually guarding at the entrance of the valley, chatting and laughing with each other.
"I say, big brother. We've been guarding this place for a whole night, and we haven't even seen a single hair of those demonic beasts. In this freezing cold snow, drinking the wind in the wilderness, isn't this suffering? Do you think the information the city lord received was wrong?"
"Hehe......" One of them chuckled and said, "I'm telling you, little brother, don't waste your time thinking about it. There are four paths from Fang Tian Cheng to our Zhong Du City. One is the official road, where there are few mountains and rivers, and monsters don't like to go there. So the official road is the least likely place for monsters to appear, that's why the city lord's mansion has taken over guarding it."
The second is Luofeng Ridge, where there is only a narrow path that can only allow one beast to pass through at a time. It's an extremely easy place to defend and hard to attack, which was taken over by the Wu family to guard. The mountain valley guarded by our Xiao family is called Changri Valley. Although Changri Valley is very large, the entrance leading to Zhongdu City is very small, allowing only three beasts to walk side by side at a time. As long as we defend this entrance, the beasts inside will be like being tied up in a sack, also an easy place to defend and hard to attack.
Only the Tongyu Valley guarded by the Xu family, it's very open there and extremely difficult to defend. I think the demon beasts are also intelligent, they should all be heading towards the Tongyu Valley, here we naturally can't even see a hair of the demon beasts, haha...
"Hahaha......" The surrounding Xiao family disciples burst out laughing at the same time.
"Is this Long Day Valley?"
Hiding in the empty air, Xu Ziyuan heard that this was Changri Valley and determined her own position. On her way from Zhongdu City to Changri Valley, she had also talked with Xu Li and others, and through their introduction, she already had a clear understanding of the geographical environment around Zhongdu City. Now that she had confirmed her position, Xu Ziyuan would not get lost again.
Just as she was about to fly towards the Tongyu Valley, Xu Ziyuan suddenly stopped in her tracks, and a thought in her mind rose uncontrollably:
"The City Lord's Mansion, the Xiao and Wu families have joined forces to harm us, the Xie family. Why can't I harm them?"
Thinking of this, Xu Ziyuan's mind moved, and she floated silently along the trajectory of the snowflakes, drifting away from Changri Valley and landing in a mountain valley one mile away.
She searched for a flat and smooth rock nearby, took out the talisman pen and paper from her storage bag, and without any hesitation, she drew a talisman with swift strokes. She quickly put the talisman into her storage bag, then continued to draw two more identical ones in succession, which were also swiftly stored away.
Xu Ziyuan was so nervous about the talismans she made that as soon as one was finished, it would immediately be put away in her storage bag. This was because the talismans she made this time were not attack or defense talismans, but a kind of beast-attracting talisman.
This talisman has a fatal attraction to the demon beast, and it can imitate the scent of a herb called "Sukong Grass" that makes the demon beast level up immediately after swallowing. This Sukong Grass scent is undetectable to humans, but demon beasts can smell it from a great distance. They will then instinctively swarm towards the source of the scent.
The beast-attracting talisman works by converting the absorbed spiritual energy into the scent of the Void-Step Grass through the formation method in the talismans. As long as one corner of the beast-attracting talisman is torn off, this scent will be released continuously and can last for four time periods.
"Heh heh, since you three families want to repay our Xu family, I'll lead all the demonic beasts to your three families' places."
Xu Ziyuan's first trial melted the snow, drifting with the wind, and in an instant, she returned to Changri Valley. Hiding in the air, looking around, she quietly fell behind the Xiao family team 500 meters away, tore off a corner of the symbol, and then buried it shallowly underground.
In this way, the demon beasts will be attracted by the smell of the beast symbol and rush towards the Long Day Valley. At the entrance of the Long Day Valley are the disciples stationed by the Xiao family. Those demon beasts want to run to the front of the beast symbol, they must necessarily rush through the disciples stationed by the Xiao family. The Xiao family is absolutely unwilling to let the demon beasts rush over, after all, in their time, there are parents and relatives in the Zhongdu City. In this way, the Xiao family and the demon beasts can only fight to the death.
After burying the first beast symbol, Xu Ziyuan's mind moved and her body hid in the air, flying quickly towards Luofeng Ridge. The snowfall was getting heavier and heavier, and the sky and earth seemed to be connected into one piece. Borrowing the momentum of the snow, Xu Ziyuan flew at an extremely fast speed, and after an hour, she had already seen Luofeng Ridge in the air.
Quietly burying the beast symbol 500 meters behind the Wu family, Xu Ziyuan flew quickly towards the official road again. After putting the last beast symbol 500 meters behind the city master's mansion team, Xu Ziyuan flew quickly towards Tongyugou.
Two hours later, Xu Ziyuan had already seen Xu Jin and the others standing on the mountain slope, cautiously on guard. Xu Ziyuan slowly descended from afar and walked towards the mountain slope on foot. At this time, although Xu Ziyuan was walking on the mountain path where the demon beast had come last night, her heart was not tense at all, but instead thought to herself:
"Those monsters should be heading towards Guan Dao, Chang Ri Valley and Luo Feng Ridge by now!"
The snowfall had gradually weakened, and the wind had also subsided a lot. The snowflakes were very large, but they fell slowly, fluttering gently in the air, looking very beautiful. Amidst the swirling snowflakes, Xu Ziyuan wore a sapphire blue shirt, set off by her pale face, bright eyes, and white teeth, walking slowly through the drifting snow, forming a breathtakingly beautiful picture.
The people on the hill were stunned, what a beautiful painting it was! It gave people a sense of serenity and emptiness from the soul. Everyone seemed to be immersed in that picture.
Xu Ziyuan walked up the mountain slope, saw everyone staring at her in a daze, and looked at her own body with some unease, only to find that there was nothing else except for snowflakes, so she looked at the crowd in confusion.
"Wow! Sister Ziyanyan, you're so beautiful!"
Xu Li suddenly jumped to Xu Ziyuan's side, stretched out both hands and grasped one of Xu Ziyuan's hands, shaking it constantly.
"Wow..."
Everyone let out a breath in unison, and they all came back to their senses from the daze earlier. Xu Jin walked up to Xu Ziyuan's front, looked at Xu Ziyuan with a glance, then nodded his head and said:
"You really did break through!"
"Really? Ziyan sister, you've broken through again? You're now at Post-Heaven Ninth Layer?"
This time, it wasn't Xu Li who shouted out, but rather Xu Qingxue. This little girl, who had always only known about cultivation, looked at Xu Ziyuan with a mixture of shock and admiration, her eyes revealing a hint of loss.
Thank you for the love of leisurely grass and carefree life towards this book, but to be honest, I am an office worker, very busy during the day, only having this bit of time at night to write books. Often in order to rush out that day's chapter, I have to write until nearly midnight. However, I will work hard, speed up my writing pace, and repay everyone for their attention towards me.
