When Master Wuwei and Cheng Shuyan arrived at the first line of defense, the first wave of attacks from the monsters had already been blocked by the cultivators.

The first line of defense is a monk's city built of bluestone, named Bluestone City.

This place is located in a natural barrier, with abysses and dangerous areas on both sides, making it difficult for low-level monsters to pass through.

Bluestone City was built on the land in the middle of the abyss. Its tall city walls stood majestically, blocking the attack path of monsters.

Cheng Shuyan stood at the foot of the city wall, looking up at the wall made of blocks of bluestone.

The bluestone is covered with traces of vicissitudes of life, some caused by this beast tide, and some left behind in the process of resisting beast tides over thousands of years.

Seeing the emotion in her eyes, Master Wuwei told her the history of Qingshi City.

"Bluestone City was first built 1,600 years ago by a Nascent Soul True Lord. Before that, the first line of defense against the beast tide was still a hundred miles behind.

The establishment of Qingshi City expanded the cultivators' defense line by a hundred miles, buying more breathing space for the defense line in the rear.

Over the past thousands of years, Qingshi City has been lost several times, but it has been recaptured and rebuilt time and time again by monks, and it still holds this line of defense.

Unfortunately, that True Lord failed to achieve divine enlightenment and perished a thousand years ago. He is now alone and has left no heirs, which is truly a pity."

"The senior who founded Bluestone City was truly righteous!"

Cheng Shuyan sighed.

Pushing the monks' defense line forward a hundred miles sounds easy, but in reality, countless difficulties and dangers were encountered in the process.

The senior pushed this matter forward single-handedly, but it really didn't bring him much benefit personally.

Instead, they bear the brunt of the pressure from the demon clan, but the one who benefits is the entire world of immortal cultivation.

After the monk guarding the city checked the message talisman received by Master Wuwei, he respectfully let the two pass.

Taoist Wuwei seemed to be quite familiar with this place, and took Cheng Shuyan straight to the City Lord's Mansion.

The city lord, Master Wen Su, who had received the news, was already waiting in front of the city lord's mansion. When he saw Master Wuwei, he hurriedly pulled him into the mansion.

"Fellow Daoist Wuwei, the situation here is extremely urgent. I was caught off guard by those monsters, so I hurriedly sent a message to you.

I am truly grateful to you for coming so quickly, fellow Daoist!"

Master Wen Su's face was full of anxiety. After asking Master Wuwei to sit down, he hurriedly thanked him.

Wuwei Zhenren bowed to him in return:

"It's alright, Daoist friend, staying in Qingshi City is a noble cause. The beast tide outbreak is not your sole responsibility. We received the news and have come to help.

This is my young disciple Cheng Shuyan. He has come with me this time to help resist the beast tide and do his bit. I hope you will take good care of him in the future."

After Cheng Shuyan came in, he stood respectfully behind Master Wuwei. When he heard him mention this, he hurriedly walked to the center and bowed to Master Wensu.

"Junior Cheng Shuyan, greetings to Senior Wen Su."

"Please stand up quickly, young friend." Master Wen Su did not have the airs of a Jindan Master at all. He walked down to her and helped her up.

"My friend, you are so young, yet you have already achieved such accomplishments. You are truly a young man of great accomplishments!"

As Master Wen Su spoke, he took out a small fiery red sword and handed it to her, saying:

"I didn't know you were coming, so I didn't prepare any gifts in advance. This is a top-grade fire-attributed flying sword I stumbled upon by chance, named Blazing Sword.

I see that you have a strong fire attribute spiritual power, and I think this sword is just right for you, so I'm giving it to you as a gift from my elder.

This Blazing Sword was filled with powerful spiritual energy, and its aura was no different from her Wind Shadow Wings. It must be a top-grade magical weapon. She didn't dare to accept such a valuable gift.

Seeing the hesitation on her face, Master Wen Su said softly:

"Young friend, don't worry. Fellow Daoist Wuwei and I are close friends. His beloved disciple is my nephew or nephew. I can't be too stingy when giving a gift to my own junior, right?"

Cheng Shuyan looked back at her master and saw that he also smiled and nodded, indicating that she should accept it. Only then did Cheng Shuyan take the Blazing Sword.

"Thank you for the gift, senior."

After her Sky-Breaking Hammer was destroyed, she had not been able to find a suitable magical weapon. This Fiery Sword solved her urgent problem.

"Well, my friend, you've just arrived in Bluestone City and I guess you haven't had a good look around yet. How about I let my disciple take you out for a stroll?"

Seeing that she accepted it, Master Wen Su stroked his beard and continued.

Cheng Shuyan understood that this was Master Wen Su discussing something with his own master and indirectly sending the guest away, so he naturally agreed.

"The younger generation depends entirely on the arrangements of the seniors."

"it is good!"

Master Wen Su sent a sound transmission note outside the hall, and soon a familiar figure walked out of the hall.

"Huh? Fellow Daoist Cheng! I didn't expect the person Master was talking about would be you!"

It was actually Tian Yiyi who had teamed up with her for training. This was quite a coincidence.

Cheng Shuyan didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that she was actually the disciple of Master Wen Su.

"Fellow Daoist Tian, ​​how are you?"

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that you and Yiyi would know each other. This is fate. Yiyi, in this case, you must treat Cheng well."

When Master Wen Su heard the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Tian Yiyi bowed to her master and Wuwei Zhenren and said, "Yes, Master, Senior, I will definitely entertain Junior Sister Cheng well."

She was older than Cheng Shuyan, and now they both had reached the great perfection of Qi training. The call of "Junior sister" inadvertently brought them closer.

Qingshi City is divided into two cities, the inner and outer cities, each with its own independent defense formation. If the outer city is lost, the inner city can still buy some time.

Cheng Shuyan strolled around the inner city with Tian Yiyi and listened to her introduce the various shops in Qingshi City.

Different from other markets, most of the shops in Qingshi City deal in monster materials.

Now that the beast tide has arrived, the shops are filled with monster materials.

There are occasionally one or two medicine shops, but they rarely sell medicine. At most, they sell some fasting pills and the like. There are no healing pills or cultivation pills at all.

After all, during the beast tide, the most sought-after items are healing pills, followed by cultivation pills. Monsters wreak havoc here all year round, spiritual herbs are extremely rare, and pills are naturally in short supply.

While strolling around, a huge square in the city caught Cheng Shuyan's attention.

A huge stone platform was built in the center of the square, with a bluestone stele erected on the platform.

There must be a formation arranged on the stone tablet, which projects a light curtain onto the stone tablet.

The three words "Demon Killing List" with strong murderous intent were carved on the stone tablet.

The light screen was filled with densely packed names of people, each with a score behind it.

Currently, Tian Yiyi ranks first on the list with 79 points, and Cheng Shuyan also saw Tian Er's name in the 39th position.

As Tian Yiyi spoke, she looked over and nudged her with her elbow.

"How is it? You haven't seen it anywhere else, right? This is a unique feature of our Bluestone City, only Bluestone City has it!"
