Zhang Ling thought about his plans, and after leaving the main hall of the sect, he flew towards the area he was responsible for.
Now the entire Feiyun Island has become busy.
Feiyun City, built on Qiyun Mountain on the ground, covers a large area. As a medium-sized immortal city, the number of cultivators living in it is more than 100,000.
Naturally, more than half of them are disciples of Feiyun Sect, and a small part are loose cultivators who live here all year round.
Of course, most of them are low-level cultivators. There are 100,000 Qi refining cultivators and 8,000 to 9,000 foundation building cultivators. As for the high-level cultivators, most of them belong to the Feiyun Sect's power.
In the past few days, the immortal cultivation families that depend on Feiyun Sect in other places have also temporarily moved to Feiyun Island. There are more than 80 golden core cultivators belonging to Feiyun Sect alone.
In addition to this, Feiyun City is a medium-sized immortal city with many shops and business alliances, as well as high-level cultivators from other forces. There are also more than 20 golden core cultivators, including some loose cultivators.
At this moment, there are hundreds of high-level cultivators gathered on the city wall.
As long as they are cultivators on Feiyun Island, no matter what their strength, they must all obey the dispatch of Feiyun Sect.
Islands occupied by a single force, regardless of size, basically do not build teleportation arrays. Even if there are teleportation arrays, only the core disciples of Feiyun Sect know about them.
After all, no force would open a passage in their own home to allow other cultivators to enter.
Therefore, it is easy to leave Feiyun Island at this time, and of course, it is not difficult for high-level cultivators like Zhang Ling to leave. It's just that now that the beast tide has broken out, it is not necessarily safer outside than here.
Zhang Ling flew all the way in the air, and from time to time he could see people coming and going in Feiyun City, and rays of light constantly shuttling. Most of them are low-level cultivators.
Generally, medium and large immortal cities have air bans, and low-level cultivators are not allowed to fly around in the city. It's just that now that the beast tide is coming, Feiyun Sect has cancelled this ban in order to facilitate the actions of the cultivators.
Most of these cultivators are flying to the outer city wall area of Feiyun City, and under the command of several golden core elders, they are building fortifications.
Zhang Ling just flew over a section of the city wall and saw an elder of the Feiyun Sect below, directing more than a dozen foundation building cultivators to reinforce the city wall defense.
Each of these cultivators held different array instruments in their hands, and at intervals they engraved array spiritual patterns on the city wall.
There are also many foundation building and Qi refining cultivators practicing formations on the city wall, and many cultivators are also moving some large instruments.
I saw two foundation building cultivators, holding up the magic formula in their hands and urging them, while flying and moving a black iron turret several feet high. After a while, the turret made a loud noise and was placed on a square stone platform.
The array spiritual patterns on the jade platform flashed continuously, and a black and red aura rushed out instantly, wrapping the turret inside. After a few breaths, this layer of aura transformed into dense spiritual patterns and was imprinted on the turret.
Next to him, an old man with white hair was holding a black jade token and constantly checking something.
After a while, this person finished the inspection, took out a fire-attribute middle-grade spirit stone, and placed it in a hidden compartment under the turret.
After doing this, a magic formula was cast on it, and flames spiritual patterns appeared on the turret. Then, the fire spiritual power condensed and directly shot out a fireball the size of azhang, like a cannonball, after flying a hundredzhang, the fireball exploded in the air with a loud bang, and a burst of intense fire covered an area of four or fivezhang.
Although Zhang Ling flew over this section of the city wall, his spiritual sense was scanning the cultivators on the city wall, and he could see this scene clearly.
The fireball attack launched by this kind of turret is equivalent to a blow from a foundation building cultivator in the early and middle stages. As long as a fire-attribute middle-grade spirit stone is placed, it can fire more than 300 fireballs.
It is also extremely easy to command, as long as a Qi refining cultivator in the middle stage is left, they can completely control it.
This is the kind of large spiritual weapon, belonging to a high-grade spiritual weapon. The cost of building this turret alone is equivalent to two or three high-grade magic weapons. And this section of the city wall has such a turret every hundredzhang.
In addition to the turrets, there are also some red wooden arrow towers more than tenzhang high, heavy catapults, some complete sets of spiritual light pillars and many other large instruments, all of which have been moved to the city wall by the cultivators.
Beyond this section of the city wall of Feiyun City, a few miles away was originally an open space. At this moment, there are also teams of cultivators, most of whom are practicing earthwork techniques, and they are building new defensive walls.
The newly built city wall is only half as high as the original city wall of Feiyun City, but it also has many offensive and defensive instruments on it.
These city walls are not connected together, and there will be a gap area every certain distance, forming a semi-open circular barrier as a whole, surrounding Feiyun City in the center.
In those gap areas, many cultivators are arranging several large formations, and from time to time, amazing spiritual energy fluctuations break out.
Zhang Ling is now an elder of Feiyun Sect, and has a general understanding of these situations. At that time, this area of hundreds of miles near Feiyun City will be the main place to resist the beast tide.
Flying all the way, Zhang Ling also saw many teams of mortals on the ground, wearing black armor, heading towards the army, and advancing rapidly towards Feiyun City.
Feiyun Island is a medium-sized island with thousands of miles of area. In addition to Feiyun City, there are several small towns on the island, inhabited by tens of millions of mortals. The arrival of the beast tide is naturally the most terrifying natural disaster for these mortals.
Whether Feiyun Sect is willing or not, they must take care of them. Most of these mortals actually have some connection with Feiyun Sect, and most of them are descendants of cultivators in Feiyun Sect over the past thousands of years.
For example, the Hu family, the immortal cultivation family to which Baiyun Sanren he is now impersonating, also has hundreds of thousands of mortal descendants on Feiyun Island.
Nowadays, most of these mortals have been moved to several specific towns on the island and entered an underground city located a hundredzhang underground.
Liuyun Sea has formed for tens of thousands of years, and the human race here has made a series of plans to resist the turbid qi and the beast tide. In order to preserve these mortals, letting them enter the underground city is the simplest and most effective way now.
Once the beast tide passes, mortals will come to the ground again to survive. But if an area is destroyed, the cultivators will not be able to take care of themselves at that time, and these mortals will probably not survive. Even if they are not discovered by the beast tide, they will be eroded by the turbid qi and transformed into desolate beasts over time.
In fact, the mortals living near the desolate area are only the smallest part. There are more mortals living in the hinterland of the human race.
It's just that because some islands have spiritual veins, attracting immortal cultivators to establish sects, immortal cities and other forces. Over time, the cultivators multiply and naturally there are many mortals.
The mortals on Feiyun Island are in this situation.
Every few hundred years, the turbid qi erupts and the beast tide impacts, and a certain army will be formed in an organized manner among the mortals. Most of these people are warriors. Once the beast tide breaks out, mortal warriors will also be organized to hunt some low-level desolate beasts.
At this time, the mortals walking on the ground are the army composed of mortal warriors. They will resist the beast tide together.
Zhang Ling flew all the way, watching the busy situation on Feiyun Island. He felt quite emotional.
The turbid qi spreads and the beast tide impacts. Even high-level cultivators like him cannot avoid being involved in this natural disaster, not to mention that these mortals can hardly control their own life and death.
