After learning the new skill, Lin Yu knew the situation was critical and immediately created new clones.
"Although I don't know the purpose of these exotic beasts destroying the mountain range, we are right to stop what the enemy is doing!"
"Kill them!"
With the order given, the clones nodded and dispersed, heading out to fight.
After the clones left, Lin Yu felt an unease and quickly said, "Let's get out of here."
"Where to?" Lin Fan asked doubtfully.
Lin Yu pointed north and said, "Anywhere is fine, just not here!"
Standing here gave him a premonition of impending disaster, making him very uncomfortable.
Lin Fan nodded without objection; he would do as his main body instructed.
The two left the great mountain and headed towards another mountain range in the distance.
They dared not fly along the way, fearing detection by the exotic beasts.
Upon reaching a distant mountain, they immediately found a spot and burrowed into the tunnel Lin Fan had dug.
Once inside the tunnel, the sense of crisis disappeared, and Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's stay here and try to stay away from the battlefield. Be a carefree sixth man."
Hearing this, Lin Fan glanced at him and muttered inwardly.
*Is this being a sixth man?*
*It's more like a god of hiding!*
Although Lin Fan also preferred to operate from the shadows, he enjoyed being in the spotlight, basking in the admiration and awe of the world.
In terms of personality and actions, he was the polar opposite of Lin Yu.
However, he would do as Lin Yu said.
"Release your puppet insects and scout the surrounding area. Inform me immediately if there's any danger!" Lin Yu instructed.
Lin Fan nodded and said, "Don't worry, main body. A radius of ten miles is within my surveillance range!"
"Good, we cannot afford to be careless," Lin Yu cautioned again. Lin Fan repeatedly agreed, while Lin Yu projected his consciousness to one of his clones.
At this moment.
In the mountain where Supreme Academy was located.
The vast mountain range, stretching for a hundred miles, was continuously assaulted by exotic beasts.
They flew in the sky, a dense swarm overlooking the land below.
Long Qinglan emerged from the crowd, accompanied by the Golden Ape King and the Crimson Snake King.
Long Qinglan said, "A mountain range a hundred miles long is insignificant to us. Let's attack together and destroy this mountain!"
It looked at the Golden Ape King and said, "Golden Ape King, you go east."
The Golden Ape King nodded, accepted the order, and flew east.
Before Long Qinglan could say anything else, the Crimson Snake King had already flown west.
"No need to say more, I'll go west!"
It smiled, watching the Crimson Snake King's receding figure, then looked down at the mountain range.
This mountain was very tall, over ten thousand meters. It was originally the barrier of the Guixu, preventing countless Guixu exotic beasts from entering the human hinterland.
But today, it was facing the greatest tribulation of its existence.
Long Qinglan's eyes flashed with brilliance as it roared.
"Attack!"
Tens of millions of exotic beasts received the order and immediately unleashed their skills.
Instantly, various skills rained down on the giant mountain.
The skill lights were so intense that they obscured the sky. Looking up, they formed a glowing curtain that covered the heavens.
Rumble!!!
The attack landed, striking the great mountain.
The concentrated barrage, continuously falling and accumulating immense power, was like a giant hammer incessantly striking the mortal world, causing profound shock.
Under this onslaught, the rocks of the mountain began to crack.
Boom!
Bang!
Countless rocks split and then tumbled down with a deafening roar. From afar, it looked like the end of the world.
The people of Supreme Academy witnessed this scene clearly.
Staring at the apocalyptic spectacle, they stood frozen in place.
"These exotic beasts are too crazy!"
"What can we do? Are we doomed?"
"Damn it, I really want to fight to the death."
Everyone's hearts were filled with anger yet a sense of helplessness.
Facing such an overwhelming situation, death seemed to be the only recourse.
Elder Ge and others watched from afar, their expressions varied.
The Charioteer said anxiously, "Elder Ge, make a decision quickly!"
The Divine Monk also wore a heavy expression, chanting a Buddhist mantra.
"Amitabha. The Buddha says, 'If I do not go to hell, who will?' I am willing to sacrifice this life, awaiting only Elder Ge's command."
Chi Yu said, "Stop trying to persuade him. Going out there would be suicide; you wouldn't even get close before being focused-fired."
Jian Ku glanced at him and snorted, "I, Jian Ku, would rather die than utter such words that bolster the enemy's spirit!"
Chi Yu also snorted, "You, Jian Ku, are so amazing, go yourself!"
"You..."
Elder Ge said with a bitter smile, "What time is it? You're still arguing here? Chi Yu is right. If we go out now, we'll fall into the enemy's trap and merely throw ourselves into the jaws of the tiger."
The Charioteer asked, "Then what do you suggest we do?"
Chi Yu said, "What else can we do? Just wait it out!"
After Chi Yu said this, Fuyao Zi added, "If the Sword God were here, there would still be a glimmer of hope. Moreover, the exotic beasts are divided into three routes, and the middle route has fewer beasts. If the Sword God were here, we would have a fighting chance."
Many years had passed since they last saw the Sword God fight, and they no longer knew how far his strength had progressed.
However, judging by his ability to repel the Hand of the Gods, the Sword God's strength was already half a step ahead of theirs.
Don't underestimate this half-step; that level of strength could mean a tenfold difference.
Suddenly, Yan Jun said, "Can't the Sword God's formation activate an illusionary image of the Sword God?"
Everyone was aware of the immense power of the Sword God's illusionary image. A single illusionary image could kill a Rank Nine exotic beast, even slaughter an entire army.
Such strength was awe-inspiring, even superior to everyone present.
Even Chi Yu was not confident he could defeat the Sword God's illusionary image.
The crowd turned their gazes to Zhou Yang; he was the Sword God's disciple and a student of Supreme Academy. He could activate the formation and thus the Sword God's illusionary image.
Zhou Yang, stared at by so many powerful figures, felt nervous and quickly said, "Esteemed seniors, please don't look at me like that. The illusionary image left by my master has only half its energy remaining and can only last for an hour."
Elder Ge heard this and said, "It's fine. It gives us an additional trump card!"
The Charioteer asked, "Elder Ge, shall we act?"
Elder Ge nodded and said, "Zhou Yang, go and activate the formation. We old folks will go lure them over!"
"Once they get close, activate the formation immediately!"
Zhou Yang nodded, bowed, and retreated.
...
Outside.
Elder Ge and the others appeared in the void.
The moment they appeared, the Silver-Eyed Cat King, who was in slumber, awoke.
It materialized from the void, glanced at Elder Ge and the others from afar, then flashed to Long Qinglan's side and relayed the message.
Upon hearing this, Long Qinglan revealed a mocking expression and laughed, "Haha, they still dare to come out? Follow me, let's kill them!"
The Silver-Eyed Cat King also laughed, "Good, my claws have been itching for a while."
