Chapter 148 - Chills

The beast tide rolled in, carrying with it the power to destroy everything.

After being resisted by the youth's four or nine sword formations for an hour, blood and bones were poured down like rivers and mountains. In the end, the sword formation collapsed. The youth used all his strength to support the sword formation before slashing at the beast tide again.

In the end, the youth made a promise — I will defend this place alone.

He used his mind reading technique and controlled the beast tide to change directions, chasing after Xiao Yu alone!

The forty thousand men who survived, the many great leaders and generals. At this moment, they were all staring at the dust cloud, still hoping to catch a glimpse of the youth's back.

”We survived!”

”The beast tide is gone, we survived!”

”We're alive!”

Countless people cried tears of joy.

Wang Tian was also overjoyed: ”Hahaha, we have finally survived, the heavens have eyes! Father, we survived! ”

”Pah!”

What welcomed Wang Tian was a resounding slap on the face.

The one who took action was Wei Sanye.

Wei Sanye's face was filled with anger: What heaven has eyes? The reason why you are still alive is because the Scepter Young Master Xiao tried his best to help you. In order to lead away the beast tide, Young Master Xiao activated his mind reading technique, and went deep into the Hundred Bones Mountain alone.

Wang Tian covered his face, not daring to speak.

Wang Jiuling also blamed Wang Tian for being too careless, some words could be said to stay in his heart, there was no need to say it out loud.

Wang Jiuling said: Wei Sanye, now that the beast tide has retreated, can we also retreat?

Wei Sanye said coldly: ”Withdraw? You can even say those two words? If Xiao Yu had not blocked the beast tide, you would have already become a corpse! It's unknown whether Xiao Yu is dead or alive, do you really want him to just leave it to himself? ”

Wang Jiuling lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and said, ”I am considering the life and death of an army of tens of thousands. The solution to the beast tide disaster should be to reorganize the three armies. We must not let the three armies be harmed. ”

”We can't let the three armies be harmed? Do you only have eyes for the army? Xiao Yu alone, is enough to annihilate your County Governor Manor more than a hundred times. His value alone is more than a hundred times that of your County Governor Manor. If Xiao Yu is injured, I will definitely not let you off lightly! ” Wei Sanye said coldly.

The moment the usually calm Wei Sanye got angry, the anger he felt was so great that it caused the surrounding people to feel a chill.

Wang Jiuling clenched his teeth. No words.

Wei Sanye said: ”Yang Xiao, let the three armies recuperate on the spot. You will take charge of the military affairs, and I will accompany the Great Sword Masters to the depths of Hundred Bones Mountain to search for traces of Xiao Yu! ”

Yang Xiao said, ”Yes!”

Wei Sanye said: ”Great Sword Master Han Qing, Great Sword Master Mao Yuzhu, Qian Jianzi, please follow me into the Hundred Bones Mountain too. Xiao Yu has made a great contribution to our House of the Marquis, we must not let anything go wrong! ”

Deep in Hundred Bones Mountain.

Countless scorpions and beasts chased after Xiao Yu.

In the beginning, Xiao Yu needed to use his mind reading technique to give them a strong mental shock, disrupting their thoughts, which was how they were forced to chase after Xiao Yu due to hatred and pain.

When the beast tide took shape, it rolled over.

He wouldn't need to use his spiritual force to attack anymore.

After all, it would take a lot of soul power to cast such a large amount of mind reading technique. Furthermore, Xiao Yu had consumed a lot of energy to activate the sword formation previously, so he was almost exhausted. After using his spiritual force attack, he was already exhausted.

Fortunately, the beast tide had formed and Xiao Yu could save the last bit of courage and soul power.

Using the wings of the Purple Golden Roc to glide, Xiao Yu was able to fly in the air and quickly headed towards the depths of Hundred Bones Mountain. ”Qingyi, back then, I promised you to take good care of the Marquis Mansion. I'll have to ask for some benefits from you when the time comes. ”

Xiao Yu flew in the air. Even though there were countless scorpions in the air, Xiao Yu was not worried at all.

As he took a few pills to recover his courage, the courage in his body also gradually recovered.

This time, the beast wave was a single scorpion wave, and there were no beasts of any variety. If they were to encounter a flying beast wave, they would really die on the spot.

The Hundred Bones Mountain was very big, extending up to a hundred miles. All he could see were barren hills and yellow sand, and dead trees everywhere. It was lifeless.

There were still countless dried bones on the ground.

These must be the human cultivators who came here to search for the cave, but died here because they were no match for the Three-tailed demon fox.

When they arrived at the core region of Hundred Bones Mountain, they were being chased by the beast tide. These beasts seemed to have sensed something they were afraid of.

”Oh? The beast tide had stopped? What do they seem to be afraid of? ” Xiao Yu was curious, he raised his head and looked into the distance.

In front of him was a very large mountain.

The mountain was towering, and there seemed to be countless streams of energy flowing down from it.

”What a strong aura. Even at the foot of the mountain, I could feel the surging torrent, and it was extremely intimidating. There's a very strong spiritual pressure within that aura. ” Xiao Yu gazed at the mountain top.

The top of the mountain was surrounded by clouds and mist.

~ Could that be the location of Three-tailed demon fox's cave?

Was this powerful spiritual pressure coming from the Three-tailed demon fox?

This was why he was able to intimidate the surrounding beast tide?

With that thought in mind, Xiao Yu continued to slide upwards along the mountain range, slowly approaching the peak of the mountain.

The closer they got to the peak, the more they felt the spiritual pressure.

If not for the fact that Xiao Yu was a spirit reader and his mental strength far exceeded that of ordinary people, he would probably not be able to persevere any longer.

”Almost there! ”Hold on a little longer.”

Xiao Yu clenched his teeth, and increased his speed.

Soon, they arrived at the top of the mountain.

At the top of the mountain was a rocky hill.

Due to the clouds of smoke, visibility was not high. Xiao Yu needed to use his eyesight to barely see within a hundred meters.

A corpse! A large number of corpses!

The corpses were all wearing the armor of the Pingxi Army, it seemed like they died not long ago.

”The scout said before that the Wei Sanye had sent out three great commanders, each leading three thousand elite soldiers, to form a small circle. These corpses should be the elite soldiers of the three great commanders, right? ”

Xiao Yu landed and walked forward a little, looking at the surrounding scene.

The further they went, the denser the number of corpses around them became.

In the end, they could actually see the corpses of a lot of generals.

There were corpses of centurions and thousand-man armors.
