She put away the last piece of Xuanbing Marrow, stood up, her dark gray pupils slightly contracted, and looked towards the cave entrance.
Wang Teng didn't say anything, but he realized what was going on and quickly followed.
At this moment, hundreds and thousands of soul beasts are converging on the valley from all directions.
The soul power fluctuations of those soul beasts varied in strength, with the weaker ones being only a few hundred years old and the stronger ones being tens of thousands of years old. Some were rushing over from afar, while others had already gathered on the outskirts of the valley.
Outside the cave, Xianyun's voice came from the entrance, tinged with anxiety, as he shouted, "Sect Master! There are soul beasts outside! A lot of them!"
Madam Wei walked quickly toward the cave entrance, with Wang Teng following behind her. Dugu Bo had already arrived outside the cave entrance ahead of her.
Outside the cave entrance, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing stood on the open ground in the valley, with Xianyun protecting them in front of them. Their moon-white dresses fluttered in the cold wind.
All three of them were looking towards the entrance of the valley, and their expressions were not good.
Wang Teng walked to the cave entrance and looked around.
At the entrance to the valley, the horizon was a dark mass, as if a black river was slowly flowing in from afar.
That's not water, it's a soul beast.
Ice wolves, ice leopards, ice scorpions, ice pythons, ice bears—big and small, all shapes and sizes—were densely packed together, filling the entire width of the valley entrance, and still surging forward.
Their eyes gleamed with various colors in the darkness: eerie green, ice blue, and blood red, like countless will-o'-the-wisps moving across the icy plains.
The footsteps of thousands of soul beasts blended into a deep rumble, causing the ice walls on both sides of the valley to tremble slightly.
Even more soul beasts are rushing towards this place from further away.
Those auras were too far away; even Dugu Bo's spiritual power couldn't fully probe them. He could only sense a vague, immense sense of oppression slowly pressing down from the horizon.
Dugu Bo stood in front of the cave entrance, his emerald green eyes fixed on the black tide in the distance, his expression turning somber.
He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, the white mist dissipating in front of him.
"This battle is going to be tough."
Wang Teng stood in the middle of the crowd, looked at the horde of beasts, stretched his body, and focused his consciousness into his dantian.
The dual-attribute ice and fire soul core slowly rotated in the dantian, pumping soul power to the limbs.
The beast tide is coming.
Chapter 463 Breakthrough from the Beast Tide, Valley Collapses
The beast tide is coming.
And it came very quickly, extremely quickly.
The first to rush into the valley were the dire wolves, a vast, dark flock, like a flood bursting its banks and pouring in from the valley entrance.
Their eyes gleamed with an eerie green light in the darkness, their mouths were wide open, revealing gleaming white fangs, and saliva dripped from the corners of their mouths, instantly freezing into ice beads on the snow.
The ice leopard followed closely behind the dire wolf. It was a size larger than the wolf and much faster, dashing left and right among the wolf pack and leaping forward by stepping on the backs of its own kind.
Further on were ice pythons, their thick, long bodies dragging across the snow, carving deep furrows into the ground.
Further away, several enormous ice bears were walking heavily toward this place, each step causing the ground to tremble slightly.
The heavens are not peaceful either.
Icefield vultures swooped down from the clouds, their dark wings covering half the sky, the sound of their flapping wings like a thousand drums beating at once.
The ice crystal bird mingled among the vultures. Though small in size, it was incredibly fast, darting through the sky like streaks of silver lightning, its wings slicing through the air with a piercing shriek.
Ning Rongrong stood inside the cave entrance, her Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul fully activated.
Seven-colored rays of light shot from the top of the tower into the sky, enveloping the entire cave entrance in a colorful halo.
"Nine treasures transform into crystal, and the nine treasures have names! First: Strength! Second: Speed! Third: Soul! Fourth: Defense! Fifth: Attack!"
Countless rays of light shot out from the pagoda, landing precisely on Wang Teng, Dugu Bo, Madam Wei, and Xianyun.
The soul power fluctuations emanating from the four individuals surged simultaneously in that instant, like flames doused with oil, leaping upwards dramatically.
Zhu Zhuqing stood beside Ning Rongrong, her martial spirit possessing her.
Zhu Zhuqing's strength is only around level 50, so she can't be of much help in a battle of this level. Staying by Ning Rongrong's side is the greatest contribution she can make.
Wang Teng stood between Dugu Bo and Madam Wei, fully activating his soul power.
"Fourth Soul Skill: Supreme Golden Armor Spinning Top!"
The golden top flew out of Wang Teng's palm and spun rapidly on the open ground in front of the cave entrance, shining brightly with golden light.
Ultimate Skill: Impregnable Fortress!
A thick wall of golden light unfolded before them, like a giant shield, completely protecting the entrance to the cave.
The surface of the light wall shimmered with golden light, and golden patterns appeared on it, exuding a sense of indestructible solidity.
The first wave of dire wolves crashed into the light wall.
"Bang bang bang bang-"
A series of dull, rapid impacts sounded like popping beans.
The dire wolf's body crashed into the wall of light, flesh and blood flying everywhere, bones shattering. It howled as it flew backward, crashing into the pack behind it and crushing even more of its kind.
Blood splattered on the wall of light, shining brightly in the golden light, like a shocking ink painting. Then it flowed down the wall of light, dripping onto the snow and turning the white snow dark red.
But there were too many wolves.
Before the bodies that had fallen in front could be dragged away, those behind had already stepped over their companions and rushed forward.
As the dire wolves ran, they opened their mouths wide, spewing out streams of icy blue air. The air crashed against the wall of light, condensing into a layer of white frost on the golden surface.
As the frost accumulated and thickened, the light on the wall began to dim.
Wang Teng frowned and waved his left hand.
"Second Soul Skill: Sacred Firebird Spinning Top!"
A golden-red spinning top appeared from beside Wang Teng's feet, and as soon as it appeared, it passed through the crowd and came to the front.
Ultimate Technique: Celestial Fox Flame!
Golden-red flames erupted from the spinning top, transforming into a blazing fire tornado that blasted outwards through the light wall.
Wherever the flames passed, the fur of the direwolves was instantly ignited, causing them to howl and roll on the ground, melting the surrounding snow into water. The water then refreezed in the low temperature, freezing the direwolves to the ground, rendering them unable to move.
A fire tornado exploded among the wolf pack, sending more than a dozen dire wolves flying and burning them to charred corpses.
"Third Soul Skill: Nine-Headed Bat King Spinning Top!"
A purplish-black spinning top followed closely behind.
Ultimate Technique: Ten Directions Poisonous Miasma!
Rings of purplish-black poisonous mist emanated from the spinning top, spreading in all directions.
The poisonous fog and flames intertwined, forming a deadly zone of poisonous fire. Any soul beast that rushed in would be scorched by the flames and corroded by the poisonous fog, collapsing after only a few steps.
However, the spread of the toxic fog was severely suppressed in the extremely cold environment.
The low temperature made the toxic fog thick and sticky, like a pot of porridge that wouldn't boil. It spread so slowly that it was like a snail crawling, only gathering a thin layer in front of the cave entrance before it could no longer be pushed out.
Wang Teng gritted his teeth and poured more soul power into the spinning top. The color of the poisonous mist changed from purplish-black to dark purple, and the concentration was increasing, but the speed of diffusion was still unsatisfactory.
The cold air in the far north is so intense that even poison is frozen.
"Senior Dugu!"
Wang Teng shouted.
Dugu Bo didn't waste any words.
Green poisonous mist surged from his body, like emerald green snakes slithering around him.
Dugu Bo's eyes turned a deep emerald green, his pupils becoming thin vertical lines, and his entire aura emanated a cold and violent intensity.
"First Soul Skill: Azure Phosphorous Red Poison!"
The red poisonous mist spread from Dugu Bo's body, not outwards, but inwards, enveloping Wang Teng, Madam Wei, and Xianyun.
The four felt their blood flow suddenly accelerate, their heartbeats quicken, and their strength surge out of nowhere.
Clearly, this is an exciting soul skill that can be used on an ally.
"Second Soul Skill: Azure Phosphorous Poison!"
The blue poisonous mist spread outwards, mixing into Wang Teng's poisonous miasma.
The soul beasts that rushed into the poisonous area began to slow down. Some of the ice wolves suddenly lost control of their hind legs while running, and fell headlong onto the snow, their bodies convulsing but unable to stand up.
"Third Soul Skill: Azure Phosphorous Purple Poison!"
Purple poisonous mist joined the battlefield.
Wherever the purple mist passed, the fur of the soul beasts began to rot, their eyes were corroded and bled, and their screams rose and fell, making people's eardrums ache.
The soul beasts that were charging at the back smelled the purple mist and instinctively began to retreat.
But the soul beasts behind continued to push forward, and the collision between the front and the rear caused a momentary disruption to the beast tide's offensive.
Fourth Soul Skill: Azure Phosphorus Poison!
The yellow toxic fog was added last.
This poisonous fog does not harm people or beasts; it only consumes soul power.
As the soul beasts ran through the yellow mist, their soul power consumption increased several times over, and they soon began to pant heavily, their speed noticeably decreasing.
The four types of poisonous fog intertwined, swirling and merging within Wang Teng's poisonous miasma, forming a colorful death zone.
Any soul beast that steps into this area will be poisoned, paralyzed, corroded, and have its soul power exhausted in a short time, before collapsing in agony.
But Dugu Bo showed no joy on his face.
His soul power was being continuously depleted, but maintaining these four types of poison was nothing to him, a titled Douluo.
However, maintaining such a vast amount of toxins and constantly consuming them would be a huge burden for Dugu Bo.
Moreover, the low temperature here not only suppressed the spread of the toxins but also their activity, so the effects of the poison on those soul beasts were at least 30% less than in warmer regions.
Seeing his teammate make a move, Xianyun also moved.
