"Thunderstrike!"
"Wan Jun!"
It was the first time Su Yu used these two flying swords in actual combat. Two sword lights pierced through the light curtain and slashed into the monster horde, twisting together to cut a tiger spirit that leaped over a hundred meters high into two halves.
With a swift interleave, another spirit was cut in two.
The twin swords revealed their sharpness, dealing with these level fifty or sixty spirits without any challenger. Touch them and they’re wounded; hit them and they die, the killing efficiency was astonishingly fast.
Yet, as fast as it was, it couldn’t match Ding Lingyu’s speed. He transformed directly into a divine general, raised his hand, and pressed down, a chain of lightning snaking through the spirit horde, wiping out groups in seconds.
From time to time, he threw out a Taiyi Divine Thunder, instantly turning monster hordes into dust.
Lan Yiyi’s efficiency wasn’t slow either. Constantly condensing Gui Water Divine Thunders, although the power wasn’t enough for instant kills, with Xu Lulu’s cooperation, she could overlap theirs, easily taking down those level fifty or sixty monsters.
Besides them, Demon Suppression City gathered thousands of players, each employing various techniques for a frenzied bombardment, forcibly clearing a blank area around the city walls.
Yet, this situation slowed as monsters behind the demon tide grew larger in number and higher in level.
By level seventy or eighty, ninety-plus spirits could no longer be instantaneously killed; a collaborative effort from sundry cultivators was needed for a reckless bombardment to slay them.
Then, someone like Su Yu showed the advantage of swordsmanship.
Level forty or fifty spirits were killed in one strike.
Level eighty or ninety spirits were also killed in one strike, only within this strike hide more than ten segments of damage, the two swords combined exceeded twenty segments, average monsters in the eighty or ninety levels couldn’t withstand this twist.
Under the light curtain of the mighty formation, there was no need to worry about monsters rushing in. Su Yu didn’t even summon defense treasures, merely furiously swung his twin swords.
After a wave of frenzied slaughter, many cultivators took out elixirs to restore mana, yet Su Yu continued his relentless battery.
After a while, Ding Lingyu’s transformed divine general nearly depleted his hundreds of thousands of mana, yet he unwaveringly continued fighting.
Later on, Lan Yiyi and Xu Lulu had already consumed elixirs to restore mana for the third time, yet Su Yu hadn’t taken a single one. Lan Yiyi exclaimed, incredulously:
"Is it necessary to be this fierce?"
"How strong is your mana? How can you endure this long?"
Su Yu smiled slightly, kept his lips pursed without speaking.
Upon switching to the refined Cave Profound Spiritual Inspiration Scripture, his refined level forty Qi Refining Heart Skill increased 8,000 mana due to talent bonuses, plus 3,050 mana from heavenly materials, earth treasures, and equipment, and further enhanced by 16,200 from Four Symbols Star Soul Banner, his total mana reached 27,250.
What concept is that?
It’s over five times Lan Yiyi’s.
With such abundant mana, naturally he has incredible endurance.
Accordingly, the elixirs used now grew increasingly expensive, priced at 15 taels of silver each for top-grade restoration elixirs, a single one restoring 24,000 mana.
Su Yu had thought with his abundant mana, and considering that flying sword style had low mana consumption, he could last till the demon tide’s end without elixirs.
But soon he realized he underestimated the scale of the demon tide.
After an hour of frenzied fighting, the demon tide showed no signs of pause, its overwhelming array of spirits engulfed Demon Suppression City completely. Everywhere in sight, high and low, devoid of any dead ends, were densely packed demon beasts.
"This is over-exaggerated!"
What responded to him was the continuously surging demon tide relentlessly charging onward.
Two hours in, numerous cultivators, overly exhausted, had to retreat for rest, replaced by a batch inside the city.
This batch was mostly disciples from the Chixiao Sword Sect, each driving flying swords into the monster horde, initiating a mad slaughter.
Su Yu could still endure but without forcing it, retreated; watching many disciples of Chixiao Sword Vein engaging in rampant killing from behind.
Another two hours later, this batch of Chixiao Sword Vein disciples also withdrew exhausted, rotating back those who previously rested.
Even now, the outside demon tide showed not a single sign of halting, remaining endless and ceaseless.
By then, Su Yu no longer felt relaxed initially, with a solemn face said:
"These ten gold coins aren’t easy to earn!"
Considering this demon tide’s scale, it must be larger than any seen during battles between Two Cangshui River Gods.
"Bang!"
A headlong charge from a 124-level, over fifty-meter-long green-armored wild ox hit the city wall, instantly triggering dense restriction runes that lit up, exploding into brilliant light clearing numerous spirits around the walls.
It wasn’t the boss, just a hundred-level experience monster.
And this was only the beginning, hundred-level massive monsters emerged one after another, furiously hitting the walls.
"Boom!"
A flame-wreathed fire sparrow spread its wings, gathering a huge fireball like a meteor descending from the sky.
Inside the city, a dazzling sword light soared towards the sky, oscillating back and forth in the void, slicing each fireball apart.
Among them, one sword light was exceptionally dazzling, spiralling to thousands of meters high and binding several fire sparrows, twisting them around.
Su Yu also switched targets, the twin swords united enveloping a hundred-level demon ape.
The demon tide’s assault was incredibly fierce; if faced by large cities like Thousand Feather City, they might not withstand it. But Demon Suppression City was specifically built as a fortress against demon beasts, the city defenses were formidable, withstanding the dense demon race siege successfully.
No one knew how long it had been before a sharp screech echoed from the sky. Subsequently, the unwavering demon tide strike began to slow, the prolonged, futile assault gradually retreating.
