Cultivation begins with the Shen family

Chapter 58 Interception
Although a wave of beasts had caused the Shen clan to suffer great damage, but with the news that the patriarch had successfully advanced to the Foundation Establishment Realm, all the members of the Shen clan were extremely excited.

The pain of the loss of relatives and the worries about the future of the family that permeated everyone's hearts disappeared at this moment.

In the meeting hall on the Yuxiu Terrace, Shen Xiangchi, who was dressed in a green shirt, sat on the main seat, with Shen Zhirui, Shen Xiangchu and others sitting on both sides.

"Although the family has made full preparations under Zhirui's reminder, the sandworm attack still brought a lot of losses to the family."

Shen Xiangchu, who was in charge of the family affairs, stood up and looked at the crowd, and said slowly in a low voice.

"This time, a total of eight members of the tribe died unfortunately, more than [-] were injured, the three acres of spiritual fields at the foot of the mountain were destroyed, and dozens of houses collapsed."

"In addition, the clan protection formation was seriously damaged, more than ten formation foundations were destroyed, and the mortal villages and towns under the mountain."

Hearing the news of the war damage, the hearts of everyone present couldn't help but feel extremely heavy.

This sandworm attack is almost the most serious crisis that the Shen family has faced since the founding of the clan.

If it weren't for the patriarch's successful advancement to the foundation-building realm, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to defend the family spirit mountain at all.

On this side, Shen Xiangchi, who was in the first place, first looked around at everyone, and then said earnestly:

"Although the family suffered a huge loss this time, we are still very lucky compared to those families whose mountain gates were breached by sandworms. As long as we can work together, we will be able to overcome the current difficulties."

Listening to these sonorous words, everyone present subconsciously nodded silently.

After all, in their hearts at this time, the patriarch who successfully established the foundation has become the backbone of all the clansmen and can bring them hope.

"First of all, those clansmen who died in battle should be buried according to the ancestral system, and their immediate relatives should also be properly arranged according to the clan regulations."

"Secondly, we must quickly repair the clan protection array and other defensive measures, and the days to come will not be peaceful."

"In addition, take some materials from the clan treasury to improve the cultivation and strength of the clansmen as soon as possible."

Shen Xiangchi's resonant voice rang in everyone's ears, and the strict orders made everyone put down their worries.

However, at this moment, a member of the tribe rushed into the meeting hall, and under the suspicious eyes of Shen Zhirui and others, he handed a letter to the leader of the tribe.

"Patriarch, this is the news from the Second Elder just now!"

Hearing this, Shen Xiangchi immediately took the letter and checked it carefully, and the expression on his face became more serious.

Seeing his grandfather's more serious expression, Shen Zhirui couldn't help asking:
"Grandfather, what happened in the county town?"

Facing the inquiry, Shen Xiangchi looked at everyone present, and said in a deep voice:
"The county seat has fallen, County Magistrate Lin abandoned the city and fled!"

As soon as these words came out, Shen Zhirui and the others couldn't help being shocked, and looked at the volume of letters on the table in disbelief.

We all know that in Shayu County, the safest place is naturally the county seat.

After all, the county seat is not only guarded by a second-tier moat formation, but also has a county magistrate who is a foundation-building monk personally sitting in the town. Basically, there is no danger that can endanger the county seat.

"I'm going to the county seat immediately to meet the Second Elder and the others. You lead the rest of the tribe to guard the mountain gate and wait for me to come back."

When everyone was still immersed in the shock of the fall of the county, Shen Xiangchi's voice rang in their ears again.

And when they reacted, the former's figure had turned into a ray of light and charged towards the sky.

The originally prosperous county town has almost been reduced to ruins. Huge cracks continue to spread in the city, and countless houses and buildings are instantly swallowed by the cracks.

And as the ground subsided, the water in the Xuanling River outside the city rushed towards the ruined county like a wild horse running wild.

In a blink of an eye, the original county town became a swamp country, and a large number of monks were fighting fiercely with the sandworms in the water.

Ever since the protective formation was breached by sandworms and Lin Zhengsheng, the county magistrate, had abandoned the city and fled, the entire county had fallen into complete chaos.

I saw a large number of sandworms rushing into the city continuously, while the monks in the city were desperately fleeing to the outside of the city, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides.

In addition to the battle between the monks and the sandworms, many desperate casual cultivators turned their attention to other monks and the shops on the street, choosing to take risks for the immediate benefit.

At this moment, a group of people in black robes walked out of an inconspicuous shop in the north of the city one after another, and quickly headed out of the city.

This team moved forward very quickly and secretly, avoiding entanglement with monks and sandworms as much as possible along the way.

Even if it is unavoidable, they will use the fastest means to solve the blocked monks and sandworms.

Just when they were about to rush out of the county seat, they stopped by a collapsed city wall.

I saw that a masked monk suddenly appeared in front of them, and the masked monk just stood there quietly, and the aura emanating from his body was already daunting.

"Who are you, we are from the black market"

The leading man in black robe spoke first, his voice was extremely hoarse, but it revealed a hint of threat.

However, the masked cultivator on the opposite side ignored him at all, and directly attacked and killed him.

In the blink of an eye, he had quickly arrived in front of the headed black-robed monk.

The latter was terrified, his pupils dilated, and just as he was about to make a move, he flew upside down like a bird with broken wings.

"Boom."

In just one round, the black-robed man fell into a pool of blood, and his eyes were fixed on the masked monk before he died.

Seeing this, the rest of the men in black looked at the seemingly ordinary masked monk in horror.

They were very clear about the cultivation level of the fallen man, but they were dealt with by the blue-clothed monk in front of them in just one round, how terrifying the opponent's strength would be.

The next moment, the cultivator in green shirt made another attack, his figure swiftly passed in front of everyone like a ghost, and the light from a sharp sword in his hand pierced their bodies directly.

"Foundation Establishment Monk"

One of the qi-training Dzogchen monks kept gushing blood from his mouth, and looked at the blue-clothed monk in shock, but he fell down before he could finish his sentence.

With a flash of swords, lights and swords, the group of black-robed men fell into a pool of blood, and the storage bags on them were all taken away by the masked monk immediately.

At this moment, the ground suddenly trembled violently, and countless cracks spread from a distance.

The masked monk obviously sensed the movement from the ground, and immediately turned into a ray of light and flew out of the city.
