In response, Lou Yi could not refute, nor did he wish to offend City Lord Li, who represented the court.

The Yellow Extreme Breathing Technique operated at high speed, transforming him into a glowing red superhuman.

With a 'whoosh', he disappeared from his original spot and sliced a large leopard climbing the city wall and about to pounce on an archer into two halves.

Then, he continued to dash about on the walls, aiding wherever needed, becoming a qualified firefighter hero.

Wherever there was danger, wherever the pressure was immense, Lou Yi would appear there.

His pair of axes were like a meat grinder, with every swing sending a spray of blood and chunks flying.

He seemed like a tireless machine, running from morning till night, leaving Old Shi and Marshal Yue and several martial artists in awe.

Even they found it hard to achieve such extreme combat.

Prolonged use of the body leads to fatigue, tearing, and injury, which are natural laws that even martial artists cannot resist.

What they didn't know was that Lou Yi possessed an attribute panel capable of healing.

Aside from the mental fatigue that's hard to treat,

Any physical injury, no matter how severe, could be healed in a very short time with a bit of energy.

Moreover, Lou Yi running back and forth along the walls wasn't without benefit, as he passed over almost all the corpses on the ground, and the energy kept increasing steadily.

Seeing Lou Yi so cooperative, City Lord Li nodded in satisfaction.

His dissatisfaction with Lou Yi's actions of killing several peers, 'disregarding the bigger picture,' also diminished significantly.

Just then, a shout was heard.

"Look, there seems to be a new wave of beasts coming from the southeast!"

"Damn, there's some in the southwest too!"

The city wall of Tai City faced south, and now, from both the east and west sides, a large wave of black beasts was surging in, continually increasing in number.

"These are... Purple-striped Pythons, which only exist in the mountain range by Goat City. I've hardly seen them in Tai City!"

"Lynxes, they like to lie on wolves, similar to those in the Hundred Beasts Mountain Range bordering Lian City?"

"Look up there, so many big birds clearly flying in from Su City!"

A terrifying guess gradually emerged in everyone's hearts.

Could it be that the beast armies from the other four cities have all been summoned by the Winged Tiger, this True Beast King?

What exactly did Tai City do to invoke such resentment from the Beast King, with a determination not to stop until the city is broken?

But right now, there was no time to dwell on these thoughts; stopping the beast attack was paramount!

"Kill these beasts!"

"Watch the sky, be careful!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The martial artists on the city walls suddenly felt the pressure multiply, with the number of attacking beasts and spirits reaching two to three times the previous amount!

The battle instantly became a fierce melee.

Everyone was fighting with bloodshot eyes, and the rate of martial artists' casualties rose sharply.

A Peak Martial Artist of Minor Circulation wielded a blade, bursting with Qi-blood, and had just sliced a massive Lizard Spirit covered in green bumps.

Unexpectedly, a large eagle with cold eyes flew overhead.

Its sharp talons, like assembled swords, directly pierced into his throat, tearing off his entire head skyward!

A Great Circulation elder from the Yuan Family was fighting fiercely with a Black Mountain Goat Spirit over a zhang tall.

The goat's two pitch-black horns, sharp as a Profound Iron spear, forced the elder to retreat repeatedly, his face showing an abnormal flush.

"Baa..."

Suddenly, an eerie bleat rang out, and the Yuan Family elder's face went blank, his actions involuntarily pausing.

When he came to his senses, he was already covered in dozens of fluffy, ugly, sharp-snouted little creatures, with seven or eight bleeding holes...

Shi Caifeng, glowing with dazzling red light, wielding two Silver Hooks, moved in and out among the spirits, her body covered in various fur and meat fragments, devoid of any delicate female image.

"Hiss... hiss..."

A giant python, taller than her, covered in purple stripes, slithered over, its blood-red mouth releasing a spray of black poison.

Shi Caifeng dodged hurriedly, only for several dozen slightly smaller pythons to dart out 'whoosh whoosh whoosh' beside her.

Although she avoided most of them, four still clung to her.

Each wrapping around and constraining her limbs, leaving her momentarily powerless, her face changed dramatically.

The giant python was already lunging toward her throat.

'Puff!'

A black axe whirled through the air, slicing the Great Cycle Peak-level python in half!

The axe smoothly returned to Lou Yi's hand, and he couldn't help but look toward the center of the city wall.

There, Old Shi and Marshal Yue were jointly battling a cloud-like shadow, their faces grave.

Upon careful inspection, it became apparent that these shadows were formed by large, peculiar bees.

The bees were as large as basketballs, their green compound eyes larger than human eyes, their semi-transparent mouthparts oozing disgusting slime, their abdomens marked with distinct black and yellow stripes.

Their bodies were covered in densely packed, sharp yellow fur, and their black stingers resembled daggers, glistening ominously.

'Buzz buzz buzz... buzz buzz buzz...'

The swarm of bees descended like a barrage of cannonballs upon Old Shi and the two martial artists.

Each moved faster than an arrow.

If there were only one or two, they would be easy to handle.

But with thousands, even martial artists could not dismiss them lightly.

Old Shi was surrounded with a faint red True Strength, each swing of his Silver Hook cleanly taking out several large bees.

Marshal Yue wielded a black Profound Iron Sword, the white Sword Qi extending over a foot from the blade.

It sliced through the large bees like tofu, squirting green liquid in all directions.

But the number of large bees was too many, enveloping the two like a cloud.

Though Marshal Yue and Old Shi's skills had reached the Transformation Realm, they were still occasionally hit by stray bees.

The stingers struck fiercely at their bodies, yet the body surface covered in True Strength absorbed and deflected the force.

The True Strength flickered like a failing light bulb, with increasing frequency, appearing on the verge of shattering.

Even for martial artists, True Strength is not infinite, exhausted by the swarm tactics.

Seeing more and more bees approaching, with the black swarm expanding,

Old Shi and Marshal Yue exchanged a glance, seeing the distress in each other's eyes.

If they retreated now, others on the city walls would suffer.

But if they didn't, the seemingly endless bee swarm posed a risk of injury and even death, even for martial artists.

At this moment, a low growl reached their ears.

"Move aside."

Then,

a sound resembling a fierce ghost's scream rang out.

A pitch-black axe cleaved through the sky, spinning towards them.

Wherever it passed, visible white air currents surged to the sides like waves.

The axe blade had not yet arrived, but its sound already overwhelmed.

On its surface, a blinding red halo emerged, flickering with terrifying energy.

"Get out of the way!"

Old Shi and Marshal Yue's faces changed drastically, and they hurriedly dodged to both sides.

'Boom!'

The axe blade then slammed into the massive black bee swarm, and a ball of red light exploded forth!
