"Boom—"
Over a hundred attacks emitting blue light, like a torrential torrent smashing down from the sky, struck the formation.@@@@
Li Zhirui didn't just stand by any longer; his hands fluttered as he cast spells, and a thick wall of water rose to block the attacks of the water devils alongside dozens of other clansmen.
Li Zhirui looked solemnly at the overwhelming tide of beasts before him, having not expected such a drastic turn of events.
The number of water devils, which had not been large, had exploded tenfold in just a few days!
Had it not been for the narrow rivers of Da Rong Island, the number of water devils in front of them would probably be more than just this couple of hundred.
And this was just the checkpoint Li Zhirui was defending; there were two more spots to the north, one of which was manned by Li Shilian, so there wasn't too much to worry about there.
But at the other place, even though the river was narrower, it was only protected by some Qi Cultivation Stage clansmen. If they were facing the same situation, it might not be good.
However, Li Zhirui was now too preoccupied to care about others. The formation at the checkpoint he guarded was already wobbling under the assault of several hundred water devils. Without the protection of the formation, their battle would undoubtedly become much tougher.
"Release the spirit beasts!" Li Zhirui shouted at the top of his lungs. At this point, they could only rely on the power of the spirit beasts.
The sudden surge in the number of devil beasts made Li Zhirui highly suspect the three clans to the east.
Because at first, the water devils coming from the east weren't numerous. Even if their number increased with the outbreak of the beast tide, it still shouldn't have multiplied so drastically in just a few days.
Unfortunately, Li Zhirui had no way to verify this.
After helping them deal with the water devils before them and instructing them to be cautious, Li Zhirui hurriedly left.
He had been concerned about this place earlier, and now that he saw the situation wasn't as bad as he had imagined, naturally, he wouldn't stay in this relatively safe area.
The river at this battlefield to the north was the narrowest and skewed to the west, attracting fewer water devils because the two rivers ahead had drawn away many of them.
"How can there be so many water devils?" Back at his own checkpoint, Li Zhirui looked at the dense throng of devils before him and muttered gravely to himself.
The water devils weren't very strong, but their sheer number was overwhelming, and under their relentless efforts, the ice layer blocking their path was about to be broken.
"You join me in the attack, and the rest of you recover more mana before joining in," Li Zhirui pointed to the people in front of him.
When Li Zhirui took action, a dark curtain of rain enveloped a large number of water devils, using the potent toxin contained in the Corrosive Water to poison them to death. The toxin could even spread through the water.
Even after dilution, while the effect wasn't as strong, it was still sure to affect the water devils, weakening their strength.
After the concerted efforts of everyone, they eventually managed to deal with the several hundred water devils in front of them, and the massive amount of broken flesh and blood drove the water devils behind them into a frenzy of devouring, giving Li Zhirui and the others a chance to catch their breath.
"Why are these water devils unending? Is there a problem at the frontlines?" Li Zhirui furrowed his brows, feeling that the situation was not simple, but it was not possible for him to go and investigate now. Read new chapters at My Virtual Library Empire
"I wonder how Elder Shilian and Uncle Ren are faring at their locations."
The place where Li Shilian was located was at the frontline of the three battlefields to the north, the area with the greatest number of water devils.
Fortunately, there were more clansmen there, and with Li Shilian's rich experience in dealing with beast tides, the situation was still manageable.
