Chapter 177 Logistics
The moment the formation was formed.

A mysterious inspiration surged on Wangyue Island, resonating with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

From then on, Wangyue Island began to look like a big island.

"This Lei Yuan Sect's third-level intermediate-grade formation is really worth the money! Not bad, not bad!" Qin Ming looked at the formation in the sky with his hands behind his back and smiled faintly.

Everyone in the Wu family also noticed this situation. They looked curiously at the huge tortoise-shell-shaped light curtain above the sky and were amazed.

"Alas! I didn't expect that after living for so long, this is the first time I have personally experienced the protection of a third-order formation. This is worth it in this life, hahaha!" exclaimed Wu Hanyuan, the head of the Wu family.

Wu Jiang chuckled and said, "What do you think, Dad? My choice was right!"

"If I hadn't insisted on going to the Yunhuang Marsh, I wouldn't have met Fellow Daoist Qin."

"At the beginning, I used my sharp eyes to judge that Fellow Daoist Qin was definitely not an ordinary person. Sooner or later, he would soar to the sky. Look at Wangyue Island now. Not only has the spiritual vein been improved, but even the third-level middle-grade formation has been set up."

"Now even Fengqi Island at the headquarters of the Sanmeng Alliance can't compare to this place, hehehe!"

"Well, I've seen you have great potential since you were little."

"From now on, Moon-Watching Island is truly impregnable."

……

Two days later.

Qin Ming was meditating and practicing in the cave.

Suddenly!

He suddenly opened his eyes.

A vicious wind swept across the sky above Wangyue Island.

Dozens of black demon birds were circling in the clouds above. The aura of three or four of them had already reached the early second stage, and the rest were in the middle and late stages of the first stage.

Everyone in the Wu family also discovered these terrifying monsters. They were just minor Qi training cultivators, and even with the protection of a third-order formation, they couldn't help but be terrified when they really encountered a tide of beasts.

"Don't be nervous, they are just some fish that slipped through the net. They probably want to bypass the defense line of the Sanmeng Alliance and enter the Lingxi Islands."

Qin Ming raised his head and glanced up at the sky, saying calmly.

The Black Water Crocodile and the Silver-Winged Frost Bee were below, already eager to try, but Qin Ming asked them not to move for the time being.

It would be bad if we killed the evil birds and attracted a larger group of evil beasts, turning Wangyue Island into a battlefield.

As expected, the group of monsters circled in the air for half a day, unable to see through the pink mist below and dared not approach.

So it continued to fly away towards the south.

Three months after the beast tide hit.

On the outskirts of Lingqi Islands, the shadows of some monsters began to appear.

……

In fact, the signs of a beast tide outbreak began to appear several years ago.

When Lu Liang was still leading the scout camp, he had already noticed that the monsters in the Beast Singing Mountains began to show frequent abnormal movements.

In addition, the double-pupiled demon ape clan later launched a revenge campaign against the Lingqi Islands, which completely detonated the conflict between the monsters and humans.

Qin Ming learned from the news sent by Aunt Long from Jingxue Pavilion that the scale of this beast tide might be beyond imagination.

For example, Canghai Immortal City and large sects in the world of immortal cultivation have issued a large number of tasks, calling on disciples and independent cultivators to go to the front line to hunt monsters.

There are also many monster-hunting monks who want to get rich by hunting monsters and obtaining materials.

In addition to guarding the defense lines and hunting monsters, there are also logistical monks in the rear who use monster materials to refine talismans, pills, magic tools and other immortal arts. These monks will also receive more rewards than usual.

Although Qin Ming lived in seclusion in a corner and had no plans to fight monsters in battle, after communicating with the people from the scattered alliance, he agreed to refine and provide some elixirs for war needs from time to time.

He is doing his part for the immortal cultivation world of Lingqi Islands.

After all, if the monsters really occupied the Lingqi Islands, then it would really become an isolated island.

……

Another two months passed.

News came from the front line that this beast tide was of no small magnitude. Even Tianhefang City and several foundation-building spiritual island families were breached and engulfed by the beast tide.

The prices of talismans, pills, magic tools, formations, spiritual rice and other resources on the market continue to rise.

Treatment and life-saving supplies, in particular, are in short supply. Their prices have increased more than ten times from normal levels, and are still in short supply.

The remaining golden spirit rice, beast tooth rice, five-color rice, and a small amount of spiritual rice in Qin Ming's hands have been consumed more and more in recent days, and he sold part of them to the scattered alliance.

Fortunately, the Wu family is farming on Wangyue Island, so they still have a lot of spiritual rice in stock.

In addition, Qin Ming used the monster materials provided by the Sanmeng to refine a number of therapeutic pills and a small amount of second-level elixirs, and then sold them to them.

He also didn't expect that the arrival of the beast tide would make him, a casual cultivator who never left his house, rich.

The intensity of the beast tide outbreak was far beyond the expectations of the top leaders of the Sanmeng. In just a few months, their reserves of elixir resources were almost exhausted.

In the face of natural disasters of this magnitude, it is still difficult to remain unscathed.

Even the Lei Yuan Sect and the Ling Yu Sect, whose conflict had erupted into an implacable rift, had to stop fighting and temporarily put aside their grievances to resolve the beast tide first.

This day.

Qin Ming was just about to tend to the spiritual field when the communication talisman on his body sent a message.

When he opened it, he found that it was people from the Seventy-two Islands Alliance, who came to purchase pills again.

So he put down the magic hoe in his hand and flew out of Wangyue Island.

Several magic ships of the scattered alliance were hovering and docked near Wangyue Island.

Seeing Qin Ming coming out, an old man in a gray robe on the main ship hurried over to greet him. This man was in the middle stage of foundation building, but he still bowed to Qin Ming respectfully, "Fellow Daoist Qin, the war ahead is really tight. I have no choice but to trouble you to refine a batch of elixirs."

The gray-robed old man is named Zhou Ping, and he is one of the newly appointed elders in the San League.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, there's no need to be so polite. I just happened to have refined a few batches of Rejuvenation Pills, Recovery Pills, and Genxue Pills. I was just about to ask Wu Jiang to send them to you, but I didn't expect you to come by chance." Qin Ming smiled slightly, patted his storage bag, and took out dozens of bottles of pills, including combat, recovery, and life-saving types.

Zhou Ping was overjoyed upon hearing this, and sincerely thanked Qin Ming: "Thank you, Brother Qin! It is a great honor for our Lingqi Islands to have such a talented and virtuous master of alchemy and spiritual plants like you!"

"If you weren't here, we would have to take a long detour to Canghai Immortal City to get these pills. Not only would there be many threats from monsters along the way, but it would also be time-consuming and laborious, and would lengthen the supply line."

"You don't know, some other immortal cities were destroyed and people died because they didn't get these emergency resources in time, it was a tragic scene, ah!"

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, you don't have to be polite. I am just trying my best to help you." Qin Ming waved his hand and said. Zhou Ping put away the pills and took out a thick bag of spirit stones from his storage bag. He handed it to Qin Ming and said, "Fellow Daoist Qin, are these spirit stones enough for you?"

Qin Ming took the bag of spirit stones, sensed it slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he put it away without even looking at it.

"These spiritual stones are more than enough."

The people from the Sanmeng were also quite sincere. For this batch of pills alone, they paid him more than two hundred mid-grade spirit stones, which was equivalent to more than twenty thousand low-grade spirit stones.

Afterwards, Zhou Ping handed Qin Ming a pile of monster flesh and blood materials, and asked him to help refine some pills when he was free.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, I have a mission to complete. The battle situation ahead is tense, so I have to rush back immediately. I will not stay any longer." Zhou Ping said with a bow.

"Um"

Suddenly!

When Qin Ming was about to say goodbye to Zhou Ping and the others, his mind suddenly moved! He detected that there were hundreds of demonic birds in the sky ten miles away, rushing towards this side.

This group of monsters must have been eyeing Zhou Ping's fleet for a long time. They were all lurking among the clouds, and their movements were very secretive and difficult to detect.

The leading monster had a wingspan of over 20 to 30 feet wide, with a layer of silver electric light lingering on its wings. It was actually a late-stage second-order Thunder Peng.

"Don't move!" Qin Ming frowned and hurriedly called out to Zhou Ping and others.

Zhou Ping's face flashed with a hint of doubt, but he still put on a smile and asked, "Fellow Daoist Qin, is there anything else?"

"Tell your men to prepare for battle immediately!"

"There is a group of flying monsters rushing towards this side. They should be coming for you." Qin Ming said quickly with a serious expression.

"Ah?" Zhou Ping looked stunned.

He quickly sent out his divine sense to investigate, but he couldn't find a single hair of a monster, let alone a monster.

But Fellow Daoist Qin would never joke about such a thing. Could it be that the other party's spiritual power is far superior to his own, who is in the middle stage of foundation building?
Although the spiritual power of a master of alchemy is often higher than that of an ordinary cultivator, I didn't expect that Brother Qin's spiritual power is so abnormally strong.

At this time, he had no time to think about it. Zhou Ping immediately flew back to the boat and shouted loudly, "Beast attack! It will arrive here soon! Prepare to fight immediately!"

All of a sudden.

The monks on the three magic ships were all facing a formidable enemy, and under the command of their commander, they began to refill the psychic cannons with spirit stones.

The warriors with higher cultivation levels all stood on the bow, took out their magic weapons, and prepared to fight the monsters.

"Hey!"

Qin Ming couldn't help but shook his head when he saw their posture.

The cultivators on these ships are mostly at the Qi training stage, with a combat strength of the foundation building stage. Including Zhou Ping, there are only three of them in total, and it is estimated that they are not enough to fill the gap between the teeth of the second-stage late-stage Lei Peng.
It happened quickly, in just half a cup of tea.

In the distant sky, a dark mass of monsters, with demonic aura rising into the sky, appeared, densely packed like a dark cloud, sweeping towards this side.

When the members of the scattered alliance saw this scene, their expressions changed unconsciously.

And when Zhou Ping noticed the presence of the Thunder Peng.

His face turned pale and his heart sank to the bottom.

But as an elder of the scattered alliance, he did not lose his composure at this critical moment. He remained calm and deployed his troops in an orderly manner.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, please quickly return to the island to hide. We will resist you here." Zhou Ping sent an urgent message to Qin Ming.

After a few breaths.

The scattered alliance fleet engaged in a battle with the attacking monsters. For a moment, colorful spells suddenly bloomed in the sky above Wangyue Lake.

鸠！
Suddenly, there was a strong wind, and after a burst of lightning and thunder, a huge Thunder Peng, with silver electric light wrapped around its body and a pair of wings spread out, covering the sky and the sun, suddenly appeared right above several ships.

at the same time.

The pressure from the late second stage great demon suddenly descended!

The psychic cannon on the magic ship bombarded Lei Peng, as if tickling it. Silver arcs flashed around it, and it easily blocked all the spells.

As Lei Peng flapped his wings, countless arcs of electricity were released. Several monks from the scattered alliance were hit by lightning and were instantly blasted into countless blood clots that fell from the sky.

The offspring behind it let out sharp hisses, swooped down and quickly devoured the flesh and blood.

"Oh no! It's a late-stage second-order monster!"

"It's over!"

"!!!"

Seeing this, the monks on the French ship were filled with sorrow and lamented endlessly.

Qin Ming knew that this group of scattered alliance members were definitely no match for this group of monsters, so he thought to himself, "Forget it. It just so happens that I'm short of some materials for alchemy, so I'll use the flesh and blood of this Thunder Peng to make some."

Then he thought about it and contacted the Black Water Crocodile.

"Good guy! Come out and work. This Lei Peng's demon pill is yours."

Roar!
Just when the members of the scattered alliance were in despair, a loud roar resounded between heaven and earth.

thump!

Everyone's attention was instantly drawn to that scene, only to see a giant crocodile monster with a body of twenty feet long suddenly rushing out from the bottom of Wangyue Lake, causing huge waves and emitting an even more terrifying aura.

The scattered alliance members were terrified, "Why is there still a big monster down there?!"

Then they were about to turn the gun around and fire at the Black Water Crocodile.

Qin Ming quickly stopped him and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, this black water crocodile is my spiritual pet, and it is here to help you."

"what?"

"Oh oh oh!"

"Stop it! This is Fellow Daoist Qin's pet, it's here to help us."

……

The Black Water Crocodile's pair of vertical pupils were cold and ruthless, staring closely at the late second-stage Thunder Peng.

I drooled in shame.

Immediately, it roared towards the sky, then swung its body and pounced towards Lei Peng!
