Seven Deadly Sins System-Chapter 234: Gem Beast

"Bang! Clash!"

The sound of continuous collisions spread throughout the Bright Moon City, as the war between monsters and humans continued.

Most of the monsters attacking the city were only at Level 1, equivalent to Qi Accumulation Realm cultivators, and could easily be dealt with, but there were also some among them that had reached Level 2 and could compete with Shackles Realm cultivators.

Once such monsters appeared, the Shackles Realm cultivators of the Bright Moon City and the Li family would immediately step forward and fight them, slaughtering them before they could reach the walls and cause damage to the defenders.

With the cooperation of many cultivators and the assistance of Magic Weapons, these Level 2 Monsters soon died, falling to the ground and becoming one of the many dead corpses outside the city.

In the current situation, it would seem that the human cultivators held an advantage in the war, but this was actually not true.

Although thousands of monsters would die every hour and no Level 2 Monster succeeded in reaching the city's walls, this didn't mean that human cultivators were winning.

After all, the number of the monsters attacking them was seemingly inexhaustible.

Every time the cultivators thought that these monsters were finished, another horde of monsters would appear and pounce on them madly, making them feel as if they were fighting against all the monsters of the Myriad Demons Forest.

With the death of countless monsters and hundreds of cultivators, time quickly went by, and before long, the night had come.

Standing in the air above the walls of Bright Moon City, Patriarch Li stared at the attacking monsters, and his tense body somewhat relaxed.

"It's about time. These monsters should retreat at any time now.", he thought but his movements never stopped.

"Swoosh! Boom!"

Patriarch Li waved the sword in his hand continuously, harvesting the lives of the monsters around him with ease.

Every time he attacked, a monster would fall, regardless of whether it was a Level 1 Monster or Level 2.

However, soon, Patriarch Li noticed something wrong.

During the previous days, the monsters would retreat whenever the sun set, but today, the situation seemed to be different.

"Roar!"

Just when he was wondering what was going on, a loud, low-pitched growl spread throughout Bright Moon City, accurately reaching the ears of every single human cultivator.

The moment they heard this growl, the movements of the monsters that were originally attacking the city came to an abrupt stop, and they turned around to look at the forest behind them.

This situation made the human cultivators a little doubtful, but very soon, the answer to their questions appeared.

"Boom! Boom!"

The sound of footsteps echoed inside the forest, as the massive trees, which were more than twenty meters tall, began falling to the ground as if there was a behemoth rampaging inside.

The sound of the footsteps became louder and louder, while the destructive power was quickly moving toward this place.

Before long, the trees at the edge of the Myriad Demons Forest suddenly dropped to the ground, revealing the source of the previous growl and all of the previous changes.

It was a giant beast that was more than twenty meters long and ten meters in height, whose entire body was covered in colorful gems, shining with a red, blue, and green light.

The beast had four powerful legs that stomped to the ground and left behind deep craters, while its head resembled that of a snake, except that it had a long horn at its forehead.

As this beast inched closer, it exuded a powerful aura that brought fear to both monsters and human cultivators.

The monsters, having always followed the motto of "the strong prey on the weak", immediately knelt on the ground, staring in the direction of this beast with respect, as if they were welcoming their king.

But the humans would of course not do so.

"Level 3 Monster...", a cultivator who had reached the peak of the Shackles Realm whispered, and his words let the other human cultivators know from where the oppressing feeling they had in their heart came.

Surprisingly, this strange-looking beast was actually a Level 3 Monster, a monster who could match Awakening Realm cultivators.

Fear spread in the Bright Moon City and some cultivators looked around them warily, looking for an opportunity to escape.

Seeing this situation, a senior member of the Li family became angry, cursing those traitors, but he understood that he could not let this continue.

"Everyone! Don't worry! Our Patriarch is here. He will take action and deal with this damn beast!", the senior member spoke loudly and used his Mana to amplify his voice, causing it to spread in the walls of the city.

The comforting words of this person seemed to work, as although there was still some fear in the eyes of the human cultivators, they no longer considered retreating and escaping this place.

Instead, they raised their head and looked at the middle-aged man standing in the air above the Bright Moon City, wanting to see his next course of action.

However, because of their position, they didn't realize that the expression of Patriarch Li had changed.

The moment he saw this colorful monster, Patriarch Li immediately recognized it, having seen a description of it before.

"Four strong limbs, a head that resembles that of a snake, covered in colorful gems..."

"Gem Beast!", Patriarch Li whispered and his expression became solemn.

The Gem Beasts were a very rare race of monsters, who were low in number but whose combat power was extremely strong.

Usually, monsters would have an advantage when fighting with cultivators of the same realm, and only by having the assistance of Magic Weapons could cultivators compete with them.

But even among all the races of monsters, the Gem Beasts were particularly powerful.

Just like their name would suggest, Gem Beasts enjoyed feasting on gems, and by doing so, they could continuously enhance their defense.
