186: Hesitant Beast Tide

The guidance in my mind was indeed correct!

The opportunity for evolution is just ahead!

Greedily inhaling the waves of fragrance wafting from afar, countless Vicious Beasts’ eyes turned red with excitement, wishing they could immediately rush forward and start a slaughter.

Their noses would not deceive them.

The alluring scent emanating from these humans was a unique fragrance that promised evolution upon consumption.

And, it wasn't just ordinary evolution.

The tantalizing degree of this fragrance far surpassed the Spirit Medicine they had consumed before; the difference between the two was like heaven and earth!

Their instincts told these Vicious Beasts.

If they could devour a human from afar, they might even Breakthrough from their current First-Tier Vicious Beast status to a Fourth-Tier Vicious Beast, ruling over an area.

This was akin to a carp leaping over the Dragon Gate!

Recalling their previous experiences of mass slaughtering humans, these Vicious Beasts’ confidence immediately soared, and they scrambled to rush forward.

Humans were pitifully weak.

Humans, exuding an alluring fragrance, were simply a gift from the heavens to the Vicious Beasts!

As countless Vicious Beasts exerted all their strength to charge, the distance between the beast tide and the Chinese border line rapidly shortened.

Five hundred li...

Three hundred li...

One hundred li...

As the beast tide approached the Chinese border.

Countless Vicious Beasts noticed that something was amiss.

The blurry black line that was once at the horizon's edge gradually became clearer in the Vicious Beasts’ eyes as the distance closed.

They saw translucent Vicious Beasts, made of black Qi, floating in mid-air for no apparent reason, their bodies constantly emitting black smoke.

It was broad daylight; had they encountered a ghost?

Despite their doubts about the abnormal phenomena in the distance, not a single one of the countless charging Vicious Beasts slowed their pace.

All around them were swarms of Vicious Beasts.

If they fell behind even a step, the other countless Vicious Beasts who arrived first might hunt down all the already scarce humans in the distance.

Wouldn't that mean they ran all this way for nothing?

Having come such a long way, if they didn't gain anything, they would be too much of a failure!

The distance between them continued to shrink.

The dust swirling in the sky, the tremors from the ground, and the ferocious Vicious Beasts charging forward gradually became clear in everyone's eyes.

Facing the surging, boundless beast tide.

The Chinese People on the border line merely tightened their grip on their Ten Soul Banner and stood still.

The order for a general attack had not yet been given.

What they needed to do was keep their minds sharp, like a leopard poised to strike, always ready to deliver a fatal blow to their prey!

At the same time.

Gazing at the Advanced Vicious Beasts hidden within the beast tide, the Golden Core Cultivators located at the Chinese border all placed their hands on their Drinking Blood Demon Sword, beginning to accumulate sword momentum.

The battle was about to begin.

They must, at the moment the battle starts, rush into the beast tide ahead and instantly slay the Vicious Beasts above Fifth-Tier, to prevent them from launching sneak attacks.

As long as the Vicious Beasts above Fifth-Tier were eliminated.

The other lower-tier Vicious Beasts in the beast tide would no longer pose any threat to the Citizens of Huaxia wearing the Nine Provinces Heavenly Demon Armor.

Understanding the miraculous nature of the Nine Provinces Heavenly Demon Armor, everyone was full of confidence in taking down the beast tide without harm.

For the Vicious Beasts at this stage.

The Nine Provinces Heavenly Demon Armor on the Citizens of Huaxia was undoubtedly a Divine Artifact-like existence.

It automatically consumed demonic power to resist Vicious Beast attacks, and it would not disappear until the demonic power was exhausted, meaning all sneak attacks would be effectively resisted.

Under the premise that sneak attacks were ineffective.

The outcome was already decided when 1.4 billion Chinese People, who had reached the Foundation Establishment realm, charged into a beast tide composed mostly of First-Tier and Second-Tier Vicious Beasts.

To say it was like chopping melons and dicing vegetables was no exaggeration!

While most Golden Core Cultivators were relaxed, a few were exceptionally nervous.

Perceiving the sneaky Sixth-Tier Vicious Beast at the front of the beast tide, Cold Front's mouth twitched slightly, and a bead of cold sweat involuntarily appeared on his forehead.

His luck was too Heaven-Defying!

There weren't many Vicious Beasts above Fifth-Tier to begin with.

According to real-time detection by the Spiritual Pressure detector, there were nearly a hundred Fifth-Tier Vicious Beasts in this beast tide, and still only nine Sixth-Tier Vicious Beasts.

Excluding the three Sixth-Tier Vicious Beasts Minister Bai had slain, only six Sixth-Tier Vicious Beasts remained in the beast tide.

There were 3,600 Golden Core Cultivators guarding the border line, and 3,500 of them did not encounter a Vicious Beast above Fifth-Tier.

As a result, he happened to face one of the Sixth-Tier Vicious Beasts—what kind of Heaven-Defying luck was this!

Gazing at the Violent Bile Tiger's strong, ten-meter-tall tiger body and its powerful, sinewy muscles, Cold Front silently took out a stack of Exploding Talismans from his Storage Pouch.

One stack was a thousand talismans.

He wondered if a thousand Exploding Talismans would be enough to send this Violent Bile Tiger to its demise.

After a moment of hesitation, looking at the Violent Bile Tiger's sharp fangs in its bloody maw and its tough, steel-needle-like fur, Cold Front again pulled out nine more stacks of Exploding Talismans.

The power of one Exploding Talisman was equivalent to the full-strength attack of an Early Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Now was not the time to conserve resources.

To severely injure this Violent Bile Tiger, a thousand Exploding Talismans were still a bit too few; at least ten thousand Exploding Talismans would be more appropriate!

If it wasn't enough, he still had more.

After a final check of the ninety thousand Exploding Talismans lying in his Storage Pouch, Cold Front let out a long breath, preparing himself for battle.

............

Fifty li away.

The Violent Bile Tiger, sniffing the alluring scent from afar, galloped with its agile limbs across the sandy ground, intentionally controlling its speed.

This place was somewhat peculiar.

In the sky ahead, there were boundless, strange Vicious Beasts, their bodies emitting black smoke.

On the ground, at regular intervals, stood a human clad in black armor, holding a flag made of human bones, also emitting black smoke.

The Violent Bile Tiger, which dominated a region in Black Continent, had never seen such a bizarre sight as today.

The strange Vicious Beasts, densely packed in the sky, in terms of sheer numbers, far exceeded the beast tide behind it!

What kind of Vicious Beasts were these, and why had it never seen them before?

And... why were they all emitting black smoke?

Gazing at the densely packed Vicious Beast spirits filling the sky and the Chinese People standing as steady as mountains, the Violent Bile Tiger dared not act rashly for a moment.

Based on past experience.

As soon as they saw it, these humans should have been screaming and fleeing in all directions.

But the reality was not so.

Facing the boundless tide of Vicious Beasts, these humans stood motionless.

Adhering to the principle of caution, the Violent Bile Tiger hid within the beast tide, waiting for other Vicious Beasts to go ahead and test the situation before deciding whether to continue following.

Everything happened extremely fast.

As countless Vicious Beasts charged frantically, the distance between the two sides was reduced to the final three kilometers.

The Citizens of Huaxia, clad in the Nine Provinces Heavenly Demon Armor, became increasingly clear in the eyes of countless Vicious Beasts.

Under the sunlight.

The surface of the battle armor shimmered with a dark metallic luster, appearing and disappearing like the flowing light of death.

Facing the aggressively approaching beast tide, 1.4 billion Citizens of Huaxia stood unmoving, and the overwhelming aura of bloodlust caused countless Vicious Beasts to simultaneously slow their pace.
