Primordial Era: The Great Serpent of Yunmeng

Chapter 15 The Beast Tide Arrives, A Great Calamity Begins

Although they kept slowing down the advance of the beast tide, it eventually arrived.

Looking at the endless ferocious beasts outside, even with the array blocking their way, everyone still felt a lot of pressure.

At this moment, the Yunmeng Grand Array was activated, covering the entire Yunmeng Marsh. From the outside, it appeared as nothing more than a giant mountain.

The vanguard of the beast tide couldn't distinguish them because there was no way to climb; the herd mostly circled around from both sides.

Seeing this, some creatures couldn't help but say:

"We did it! We did it!"

Many creatures of Yunmengze wept with joy.

No one wants to face such a massive beast tide.

The dust and smoke from the horde of beasts rising up blocked out the sky, and their roars echoed everywhere.

For ten years, both sides remained at peace.

Until a ferocious beast let out a roar that represented a strange command.

The advance of the beast tide came to a halt.

The peace of the past decade was shattered in an instant.

Yunmeng Marsh was too vast, so vast that they were unwilling to take a detour and were prepared to forcibly break through the mountain range created by the array.

This battle was ultimately unavoidable!

Upon seeing this, Qi ordered the formation to be changed.

The once majestic mountain range instantly transformed into a misty, mysterious realm.

The beast tide descended into chaos.

They were incredulous at the changes before their eyes; they were beyond their comprehension.

But as the strange cries rang out again, the beast tide calmed down.

Herds of beasts began to pour into the secret realm.

"Pass on my order: all tribes of Yunmeng, within your respective territories, shall repel the invading enemy!"

Pray for the command.

"Fuxi took charge of the formation on my behalf, and Dijun organized the various tribes to fight the enemy."

"Nuwa manipulated the array flags to divide the ferocious beasts, making it easier to defeat them one by one."

"Taiyi, follow me to drive the ferocious beasts into the battle!"

Everyone said, "Good."

Fuxi manipulated the formations to change, guiding the ferocious beasts to kill each other, or making them circle endlessly within a certain area.

Nuwa manipulated the power of the formation to change the landscape, divide the ferocious beasts, or directly summon clouds to suppress and kill them in the local area.

Emperor Jun, overseeing the overall situation, guided the various tribes to fight the enemy and eliminate any who managed to escape.

Qi and Taiyi stepped out of the formation and went around to the back, using the Chaos Bell and the Tranquilizing Bell to disturb the ferocious beast's emotions.

The use of spiritual treasures is not simply about unleashing their power to fight enemies; if that were all, they wouldn't deserve to be called treasures.

In many specific situations, some small functions can actually play a huge role.

However, in most cases, the use of magical treasures is primarily for countering the opponent's magical treasures.

As a result, most living beings only know that it is extremely powerful.

Just like the Ningxin Bell, its methods of fighting are actually just average and have no special use. Its real use is not in fighting opponents.

The use of clear and turbid sounds is numerous, but directly confronting the enemy is the least noticeable.

Its greatest use is in spiritual practice, to clear away distracting thoughts and maintain a peaceful state of mind.

Of course, conversely, it can also be used to incite others' emotions, as it is now, which is the most reasonable way to use it.

Spiritual treasures designed solely for combat are often unnecessary most of the time.

The uses of the Chaos Bell are even more diverse: fighting enemies, protecting the path, performing cultivation rituals, suppressing destiny...

It can be described as a perfect magic weapon.

Now, under the interference of the two, the beasts surged into the formation like madmen.

The pressure on the three in the formation increased significantly, especially on Fuxi, who quickly sent a message:

"That's enough. Today is only the first day of the great formation's engagement with the enemy. It's enough to train the Yunmeng creatures a bit; there's no need to push all the races to their limits!"

Upon hearing this, Qi He Taiyi stopped fighting and returned to his position.

In just this short period of time, the number of ferocious beasts that rushed into the formation exceeded 30,000.

It should be noted that even the smallest ferocious beasts are over a thousand feet long, and there are quite a few that are ten thousand feet long.

The grand formation transformed from being shrouded in mist into a barrier, preventing the ferocious beasts from outside from continuing to pour in.

Within the barrier, the ferocious beasts were separated into various swamps and lakes.

The fish that used to swim in the water have now turned into carnivorous beasts, constantly attacking the underwater parts of the ferocious creature.

Lakes are often stained blood-red, with plumes of blood-red mist rising up.

Some ferocious beasts still have their upper bodies intact above the water, but underwater they are just skeletons!

A ferocious beast, ten thousand feet tall, struggled incessantly in the water, its blood energy transforming into a shield to protect it from harm.

Supernatural power began to gather in his mouth, and light flashed, shooting out like water.

Instantly, the lake water began to boil, a huge explosion occurred, the lake water became extremely turbid, and the carcasses of the fish-beasts floated on the surface.

But the same massive wave also overturned the ferocious beast, breaking its protective aura and sending it into the water.

At the same time, the water began to boil, with countless spirit fish and beasts swimming and creating waves.

A massive school of fish, visible to the naked eye, was tearing at the beast's body and devouring its flesh and blood.

Like a gluttonous feast, in the blink of an eye, the ferocious beast was reduced to nothing but bones that were difficult to swallow!

Ferocious beasts can improve by consuming spiritual energy, because these things are quickly converted into blood energy, which is hidden in their flesh and blood.

Normally, they would not have suffered such a calamity due to their physical strength, but now it is a battle for survival, and they are like ants overshadowing elephants.

Their daily accumulation will also become an opportunity for the fish and beasts in the lake.

Some ferocious beasts are covered in scales and move even more freely in the water than fish.

In the spiritually rich land of Yunmengze, all aquatic creatures, whether fish or beasts, are their food.

The spirit of the lake was devoured in a short time.

Its body, which was originally a thousand feet long, grew several times larger in a short period of time.

This is the great calamity!

Good fortune and misfortune are intertwined; there are no absolute winners, but the winners reap the greatest rewards.

The five people watched this scene without much feeling. With the help of the formation, if these creatures could not seize this opportunity, they would be of little use in the future.

Every great calamity in the universe is accompanied by both fortune and misfortune, even though such calamities can cause destruction to the world.

However, in the end, the losing side will become nourishment for the world to go further.

This is also why heaven and earth are constantly pushing forward great calamities; calamities will drive a reshuffling of old and new forces.

This will ensure that the number of living beings in the world remains at a reasonable level, allowing the world to sustain them without becoming stagnant.

Everything drives the world order forward and changes, leaving room for progress for those at the bottom, so that there can be a continuous stream of new blood.

This is the fundamental reason why the world continues to progress.

If the great calamity truly ends, then that will likely be the real catastrophe for heaven and earth!

This is the understanding of the Great Calamity among the innate deities.

If one day there is no such great calamity to cleanse living beings, then the primordial world would probably be dragged down by countless living beings.

Qi suddenly thought of the position of a saint, the great power to suppress everything.

If such a thing truly existed, could the primordial world continue to advance, or would it gradually disappear like a stagnant pool of water?

After all, a world without change has no future!

P.S.: I'm asking for votes, recommendations, and comments. Otherwise, it feels like the data is much worse than in a single-player game!

Please give me some comments and votes, I beg you!
