Chapter 542: Beast Hunting Valley
Xuanyuan Island, a day in the fifth month after the start of the Sea Hunting War.
At the southern end of the Shuihuo Valley Spiritual Land, outside a pit of about fifty miles in size, seventy-six hard-working disciples of the Xiaoxiao Team gathered here.
Gongsun Kang was also among them. Among these hard-working disciples, in addition to him, there were three others who were also in the Jindan period. Today, all of them were gathered by the Order Master Wu Yan and divided into four teams, guarding the four sides of the fifty-mile pit.
This pit is the "Beast Hunting Valley" that was privately rumored to be very mysterious.
This valley was opened up by Order Master Wu Yan himself and a group of hard-working disciples more than a month ago. This valley was opened up according to the original terrain, and all the debris in it has been cleaned up. It is said that Order Master Wu Yan planted a mysterious demon vine in it.
These hard-working disciples have never seen the horror of the blood-sucking demon vine with their own eyes. So they don't understand why the Lord wants to open up such a pit valley here, and also named it "Beast Hunting Valley".
To be honest, these hard-working disciples know more or less about Wu Yan. When they were in the Sea Hunting City before, everyone had seen Wu Yan's tyranny and power. After experiencing the incident of the investigation team this time, everyone's awe of Wu Yan, the Lord, has reached a new height.
He was able to play tricks under the noses of the elders sent by the Sea Hunting Alliance and the four major sects, and played them around. Afterwards, he was not punished at all, but instead gained control of Xuanyuan Island and took a dark cloud warship from them. All these things made Wu Yan look mysterious and powerful in the eyes of these hard-working disciples, but at the same time, these people became respectful of Wu Yan.
Now, these hard-working disciples only hope to play their roles well, participate in this session of the Sea Hunting War in the Announcement Team, and return to the Sea Hunting City alive, and they will be satisfied.
Regarding the private rumors that after participating in the Sea Hunting War, the Order Master Wu Yan will create his own independent sect on Xuanyuan Island and recruit disciples, although Xuanyuan Island is now protected by the Wuji Locking Yuan Formation, these people are not optimistic about this.
Apart from other things, just because this place is located in the center of the Demon Sea, not only facing the sea beasts and sea tribes of the entire Demon Sea, but also the environment on the island is not suitable for human cultivators to live, everyone is not optimistic about staying on this island for a long time and establishing a sect.
Many hard-working disciples are also discussing privately, and they are all puzzled by the current behavior of the Baoxiao Team.
According to the general, the Sea Hunting War has also started for five months, but the Baoxiao Team has never hunted a sea beast in the sea. This also means that Wu Yan, the Order Master, has not yet obtained any Sea Hunting Merit Points from the Sea Hunting War, except for some Sea Hunting Merit Points obtained in the Sea Hunting War Assessment.
Anyone familiar with the Sea Hunting War knows that the first year of the Sea Hunting War is the most critical, because the most sea beasts appear in the first year, and there are the most opportunities to gain Sea Hunting Merit Points. As time goes by, as the number of sea beasts destroyed on the other side of the sea boundary increases, such opportunities will become fewer and fewer.
Although the cycle of the beast tide outbreak has become longer and the number of sea beasts has increased sharply compared with previous years, the number of teams participating in the Sea Hunting War has also increased accordingly, and the strength of the teams has also become stronger than before. If these two offset each other, the change is not too big, right?
What's more, Xuanyuan Island is located in the center of the Demon Sea, very far from the sea boundary. As the time of the beast tide outbreak passes, there will be fewer and fewer sea beasts here.
Basically, almost no team participating in the Sea Hunting War chooses a target island east of Xuanyuan Island. In other words, Xuanyuan Island is the forefront of the Sea Hunting War in the early stage of the beast tide outbreak, but at the end of the beast tide outbreak, it will become the rear of the Sea Hunting War.
This beast tide broke out during the sea hunting training assessment. Five months have passed since the six-month sea hunting training. The beast tide has been seen for nearly a year, which also means that the beast tide is about to end. If Wu Yan does not lead the team to leave the island to hunt sea beasts, I am afraid there will be no chance in the future.
Although the hard-working disciples are puzzled and even feel anxious for Wu Yan, but the master is not anxious, it is useless for them to be anxious. The hard-working disciples have few opportunities to gain benefits by participating in the sea hunting war. In addition to the spiritual stone reward for being recruited, the only thing left is for the team to hunt sea beasts. The hard-working disciples are responsible for cleaning the target islands, helping to decompose sea beasts, and obtaining some fragments from sea beasts.
Relying on the hundreds of spiritual stones given by the team, participating in the sea hunting war loses the meaning of adventure. But now Wu Yan has not taken any action to hunt sea beasts, and they have no chance to gain benefits, which makes the anxiety and loss in the hearts of these hard-working disciples become more and more intense.
Today, Wu Yan brought them all to this mysterious "Beast Hunting Valley". Everyone was puzzled and curious. After all, since this place is called "Beast Hunting Valley", it must be specially prepared for hunting sea beasts, right?
Everyone stayed in the secret garrisons on all four sides, their eyes passed through the forbidden array fog and fell on the commander Wu Yan, who was standing in the void a hundred feet above the center of the "Beast Hunting Valley".
At this time, Wu Yan held a small array flag in his hand. The hard-working disciples recognized this flag. This array flag was the same as the array flag in Xuan Yazi's hand. It was one of the two main control array flags of the entire Wuji Locking Yuan Array.
Just now, Wu Yan went around the entire pit of the "Beast Hunting Valley" and scattered some demon-attracting grass that everyone knew. The special smell of the demon-attracting grass has now permeated the entire "Beast Hunting Valley" and has even spread far away through the forbidden formation.
At this time, everyone can even feel that if there is no barrier of the forbidden formation, I am afraid that a large number of demon beasts should be gathered crazily in this "Beast Hunting Valley" at this time?
Wu Yan did not explain anything to them, and they did not dare to ask anything more, but just quietly guarded all around and looked at it strangely.
Then, Wu Yan waved the formation flag in his hand to the north several times, accompanied by several spiritual lights escaping from the formation flag in his hand, disappearing in the forbidden formation light curtain in the north, and a light curtain gap appeared in the north of the "Beast Hunting Valley". With the appearance of this light curtain gap, the light curtain was seen rolling in both directions, and the entire light curtain gap slowly opened to both sides.
The entire "Beast Hunting Valley" instantly opened a door to the Water and Fire Valley Spiritual Land.
The hard-working disciples only heard the rumbling and fierce running sounds, accompanied by the swishing sound of flying through the air, and saw countless high and low-level monsters attracted by the breath of the monster-attracting grass running madly to the north of the "Beast Hunting Valley".
Upon closer inspection, everyone was shocked.
Almost all the monsters in the entire Xuanyuan Island were rushing to this "Beast Hunting Valley"! If these monsters were allowed to gather and enter the "Beast Hunting Valley", I am afraid that the entire "Beast Hunting Valley" would be flooded by monsters.
At this time, Wu Yan stood a hundred feet above the "Beast Hunting Valley", squinting his eyes at the large number of monsters rushing in, with a look of indifference on his face, as if he was not worried at all that these monsters would destroy the "Beast Hunting Valley".
As the first batch of nearly 10,000 monsters of all sizes poured into the "Beast Hunting Valley", they frantically searched for the monster-attracting grass with a strange smell in the valley to eat. In the north, tens of thousands of monsters rushed to the "Beast Hunting Valley".
Wu Yan suddenly waved the formation flag in his hand towards the north several times, and the previously cracked light curtain portal closed again, blocking tens of thousands of monsters that rushed in later from the "Beast Hunting Valley".
The entire "Beast Hunting Valley" instantly returned to a closed space controlled by the forbidden formation on all sides.
At this time, the hard-working disciples saw an unforgettable scene in their lives. They were stunned and looked at the bizarre changes in the "Beast Hunting Valley" in horror, unable to say a word for a long time.
The nearly 10,000 monsters were originally frantically eating the monster-attracting grass in the "Beast Hunting Valley", but suddenly, more than a hundred strange dark red monster vines broke out of the ground and spread all over the "Beast Hunting Valley". These demon vines that suddenly broke out of the ground were in pain, and they frantically pierced the demon beasts that were fighting for the demon-attracting grass, devoured their blood essence, dug out their demon pills, and then threw the dead demon beasts aside.
In less than twenty breaths, more than 130 demon beasts were killed.
The next moment, this crazy piercing and hunting began again, and in less than twenty breaths, more than 130 demon beasts were killed.
At first, the demon beasts that were frantically fighting for the demon-attracting grass did not notice this strange massacre at all, and were still looking for the demon-attracting grass in the "Beast Hunting Valley".
However, after a quarter of an hour, half of the demon beasts in the "Beast Hunting Valley" were devoured and hunted, and when the demon beast corpses fell all over the ground, the demon beasts that were frantically fighting for the demon-attracting grass finally noticed this strange massacre.
These demon beasts suddenly became like frightened birds, no longer caring about looking for the demon-attracting grass to eat, and ran away frantically in horror.
However, the "Beast Hunting Valley" has been controlled by the forbidden formation and has become a closed and independent space. How can these monsters escape?
The crazy slaughter is still going on. The monsters are all screaming in despair, constantly avoiding the killing of the monster vines. But the blood-sucking monster vines are deployed in a very tricky position, which has blocked every corner of the "Beast Hunting Valley".
After a few moments, no more monster calls can be heard in the entire "Beast Hunting Valley", and there is a dead silence. Except for nearly 10,000 monster corpses on the ground, nothing can be seen in the entire "Beast Hunting Valley".
What's even more weird is that so many monster corpses are scattered throughout the "Beast Hunting Valley", but there is no smell of blood. Those weird monster vines that have killed monsters are now all stretching out weird monster vines, twisting and refining the large amount of monster blood they have just swallowed.
Wu Yan's consciousness swept across the 76 dumbfounded hard-working disciples in the four garrisons, and finally a smile appeared on his face. This is exactly the effect he wants.
Wu Yan knew that after seeing such a strange beast hunting scene, all the doubts in these people's hearts would be swept away. As long as he threw out another piece of news, these people would never want to leave Xuanyuan Island again.
