Chapter 337: The Weird Beast Tide

“So tired!” Shen Ying turned to hand the sword back to Father Niu, her shoulders fell, and her expression was upset.

“I know, I know.” Lonemoon took the sword, and turned to take down the storage bag at his side. “I packed food for you just now. Go back to your tree to eat!”

Shen Ying’s eyes brightened. “Okay, Father Niu! No problem, Father Niu!” Instantly, she grew all excited, as she took the bag from him and walked back to the tree from just now.

In front of the dozen or so Soul Formation Supremacies, she hugged the tree trunk and started to climb the tree. Probably due to the lack of experience, she only went up a short way before she slid down again.

She then remembered something, gave up climbing and sat down under the tree directly, took out many delicious dishes from the bag and laid them all over the ground. Then she took the bowl and started eating rapidly. In between the eating, she glanced at the Soul Formation cultivators at the side whose expressions were still completely stunned.

She took the pastry, which only had a small bit left, and asked, “Wanna eat?”

The group stiffened and shook their heads together.

“Oh,” she replied, and continued to eat.

Everyone: “…”

Yet Lonemoon looked like he had long been used to it. He turned and cried loudly towards Yi Qing who was beside the pillars, “Chef, that’s it! You may start.”

Huh?

The Soul Formation cultivators were stunned. Start? Start what?

Before they had time to think, in the next instant, a golden array suddenly appeared on the ground, and like a giant mattress, it covered the entire seashore. Many golden talismans that they had never seen before brightened.

In the next instant, those talismans gathered slowly, and in a while they formed the shapes of sixteen light pillars. The ground shook. Within a series of banging sounds, sixteen pillars rose from the ground to mix with the light pillars.

After a quarter of an hour, following a loud roar of a dragon, a transparent screen appeared between the sixteen newly emerged pillars. The screen rose to the sky, blocking out the whole Mirage Sea.

“This… This is…” Dong Wu and the Soul Formation cultivators were full of disbelief. The array formation was repaired! No, more accurately, a new, identical array was formed.

Lonemoon looked at those sixteen pillars, couldn’t help but said to Chef who was already walking back, “Wasn’t there only four at first? How did it become sixteen?”

“The Dragon Trapping Array consists of sixteen foundations in the first place,” Yi Qing replied, “The previous array wasn’t complete.”

Lonemoon nodded. It made sense. It was an array of the divine race, and even after so many years, it shouldn’t have been broken by demon beasts of the lower realm. In any case, the black dragon was nobody in the divine race, and naturally couldn’t compare to Yi Qing, with his mixed parentage of dragon and phoenix and the heritage he was born with.

He was different indeed!

“Supremacy Lonemoon…” The group of Soul Formation cultivators had finally been able to react. They walked over rapidly, very excited looks on their faces. “We’re not sure how this… Supremacy… got to know this ancient array of Mirage Sea?”

Lonemoon was stunned, and only then did he remember about Yi Qing. Earlier before they left, Yi Qing suppressed his cultivation back to Nascent Soul, so Lou Hong didn’t realize that he was already at Soul Formation. But with his attack of beasts just now, coupled with the setting of arrays, his Soul Formation cultivation couldn’t be hidden any longer, naturally.

“This was Yi Qing from the contest just now.” Lonemoon’s mind worked, and he said with a smile, “Actually, he was a Soul Formation cultivator at the beginning, just that he suffered severe injuries a few years ago, his meridians were hurt, and that’s why his cultivation never recovered. Right now his injuries healed, and he naturally returned to his original cultivation.” He purposely left out the history of raising him since young. They were not from Honesty Sect, anyway.

Only then did everyone look understood. On the other side, Yi Qing actually went right past them and towards Shen Ying. He looked at the person on the ground at frowned.

“Master, the ground is too cold, you can’t sit there for long.”

With that said, he immediately took out a small round table… and four chairs. He dragged the person onto the chair, and with a serious manner, placed all the dishes onto the table one by one.

Lonemoon, “…”

Everyone: “…”

Did you come for a picnic?

“Uhh… I mean…” Lonemoon coughed, his mouth twitched, and while trying his best to ignore a certain pair of master and disciple, he turned to remind them, “Although the array was reformed, there are still some demon beasts that rushed in to be taken care of. We had better go back and help!”

Only then was everyone able to react. “Yes, yes. There are still the demon beasts.”

“Yi Qing and I will come to help after Shen Ying finishes eating.”

The group shuddered subconsciously. They immediately remembered that single sword slash which destroyed the whole beast herd, and their hearts suddenly numbed. They smiled, nodded and said,” Yes, yes. Of course, of course!”

Then they flew up on their swords and hurried back to help. As they flew, they couldn’t help but turn back to look at Shen Ying who was enjoying her ‘picnic’, and Yi Qing who was busy handing over dishes.

Not to mention Yi Qing who knew the ancient array who was that woman? She looked like an ordinary mortal, without any trace of spirit qi shown, but why would she have such horrifying strength? That sword slash looked like it could break the sky.

Oh yeah, what was that woman’s name?

——————

Lonemoon only started speaking after Shen Ying finished her meal and made a loud burp.

“Did you realize that there’s something wrong with this Beast Tide?”

Yi Qing’s eyebrows tightened. He casually poured a cup of tea for Shen Ying and nodded. “Indeed! For normal demon beasts, unless they were disturbed, they don’t easily attack humans. Besides, this number…”

Yes, it’s the number that is strange!” Lonemoon said in a deep voice, “Though water-bred demon beasts breed faster than ordinary ones, that kind of enormous numbers just now was unbelievable. However huge this Mirage Sea, it is impossible for it to produce so many demon beasts even in hundreds of thousands of years. But Lou Hong said that this kind of beast tide occurs every hundred years.” And it seemed to have the side effect of improving friendly relations between Fiendish Cultivators and immortal sects.

“That’s right.” Yi Qing nodded. He looked at Shen Ying and said, “Master, this beast tide is abnormal indeed. Besides, in the beasts just now, there were plenty of demon beasts beyond tenth levels. By right, demon beasts above tenth level are supposed to be able to achieve manifestation and develop spirits. But all of them only kept the animal shape and attacked by instinct, unless…

“They never developed a spirit!” Lonemoon continued.

“Exactly!” Yi Qing nodded. For demon beasts who had developed a spirit, however low it is, they would always avoid danger. Yet that group of demon beasts clearly knew that those who came to stop them were Soul Formation cultivators, but didn’t show any inclinations to retreat, and rushed over all together. Even before he and Yi Qing attacked, those demon beasts didn’t show a hint of knowing the impending danger, or a hint of fear.

“Shen Ying, what do you think?” Lonemoon turned towards Shen Ying.

“I don’t know.” Shen Ying shook her head. Maybe the Mirage Sea started a baby bonus. “In any case, along the way, did either of you see that stupid kid?”

Lonemoon, “…”

Yi Qing: “…”
