After more than ten years on the mountain, you will become invincible when you come down.

Lu Feng thought for a moment and said, "In this case, we can only rely on ourselves.

Return to the camp to rest first, and send out spies to closely monitor the movements of the dark creatures."

The group returned to the camp, and Lu Feng called the team members together to discuss countermeasures.

"The current situation is serious. The Lord of Guyue City has given up resistance. We need to formulate a new defense plan." Lu Feng said solemnly.

The team members spoke one after another and put forward various suggestions.

Finally, they decided to strengthen the city's defense, enhance the city defense formation, equip the formation with some attack methods, and organize patrols to be on guard day and night.

A few nights later, the dark creatures attacked again.

The two sides engaged in a fierce battle, with flames shooting into the sky and shouts of killing ringing in the ears.

Lu Feng led the elite team to fight bravely and fight a desperate battle with the dark creatures...

At the critical moment, Lu Feng exerted all his strength, and countless sword qi emanated from the Sword of Time and Space, shining brightly, instantly repelling a large number of dark creatures.

However, he also consumed a large amount of Hongmeng purple energy and his body became extremely weak.

Seeing this, his teammates rushed forward to support him.

"Captain, are you okay?" Luo Jiuchen asked with concern.

Lu Feng shook his head and said through gritted teeth: "I'm fine, help me go back and rest."

Inside the camp, Lu Feng took out the Heaven-Swallowing Gourd and began to restore the Hongmeng Purple Qi, while the other team members continued to stay at their posts.

After several days of fighting, countless blood and sacrifices, the dark creatures were finally repelled and Guyue City was temporarily safe.

But Lu Feng knew that this was only a temporary victory and the dark creatures would surely come back again.

He stood on the city wall, looking at the army of dark creatures in the distance, his heart filled with worry.

These dark creatures are numerous and extremely powerful. If they did not have some special means, the city would have been breached by the dark creatures long ago.

But now, although they have temporarily repelled the dark creatures, it does not mean that they have achieved final victory.

Lu Feng knew that the next battle would be even more difficult.

The dark creatures will definitely learn from this failure, adjust their tactics, and launch another attack.

And they must be prepared to face the challenges ahead.

At the same time, he also needs to think about how to better utilize the resources in his hands and improve the combat effectiveness of the elite team in order to better cope with the next challenges.

At this moment, Lu Feng became more serious, with his brows furrowed.

Because I used the Hongmeng Purple Qi, the immortal energy I absorbed was almost impossible to recover, and ordinary pills were not very useful to me...

Only the Hongmeng purple energy transformed by the Heaven Swallowing Gourd can restore its own consumption, but the resources required to do so are extremely huge...

If he continued to consume like this, he would not have any extra resources to improve his cultivation, which made Lu Feng feel conflicted.

Because no matter what time, one's own cultivation and strength are the most important. With cultivation and strength, one will have the confidence to do anything and be able to control things in one's own hands...

If Lu Feng hadn't looted a lot of the sect's resources during this period, Lu Feng wouldn't be able to hold on now...

Seeing Lu Feng's worried look, the sword maniac beside him asked in confusion, "Master, why are you so worried?"

"Sword Maniac, do you think what I did is right? Defending this Guyue City not only consumes a large amount of resources, but also many team members will die. In just a few days, our elite team has been reduced to 2800 people, and hundreds of people have lost their lives. The key is that we may not be understood by others. If we continue like this, perhaps the elite team will be wiped out sooner or later..." Lu Feng said worriedly.

"Master, there is something I don't know whether I should say it or not..." said the sword maniac.

Lu Feng was stunned for a moment, then said, "Just say whatever you want to say, don't be shy, there is nothing you shouldn't say in front of me..."

"Yes, Master!"

"Actually, I think City Lord Hu did nothing wrong. Retreating is the wisest choice. The dark creatures have just begun to invade and have only occupied two cities. They have not yet felt the terror of the dark creatures, nor have they felt the feeling of having their homes torn apart and being displaced. So even if the master does more now, they will not feel any ripples in their hearts. They just think that this is what it should be..." said the sword maniac.

Lu Feng pondered for a while. What the sword maniac said was indeed somewhat true. People would only remember helping someone in need but not the icing on the cake...

There are even many people outside who call themselves idiots. So many people have spent a lot of resources guarding here, but they wonder why you are still unable to repel the dark creatures completely, and why people have to sacrifice?

Lu Feng stood there with a gloomy face, thinking about this question...

The sword maniac was also shocked when he saw Lu Feng's gloomy face...

"Master, Sword Maniac may have said something wrong. Please punish me!" said Sword Maniac.

Lu Feng waved his hand, indicating that the sword maniac should not blame himself.

"What you said makes sense. Maybe we should find another way to protect this land." Lu Feng said thoughtfully.

The sword maniac heaved a sigh of relief and asked doubtfully, "Master, have you thought of any good ideas?"

"I've thought about it. It's impossible to defend the Northern Territory relying solely on us..." Lu Feng said.

"I agree with what the master said, but what should we do?" asked the sword maniac in confusion.

"These forces and immortals in the fairy world are all selfish. It is obviously impossible to ask them to take the initiative to deal with the dark creatures, so we should mobilize their enthusiasm and let them know that dealing with dark creatures is not only the responsibility of our elite team of the Alliance of Light, but also the responsibility of the entire Northern Territory, the entire fairy world, and every person in every fairy gate!" Lu Feng said in a deep voice.

"Master, this is difficult. You also said that people are selfish. How can we get them to take the initiative to deal with the dark creatures?" Sword Maniac asked puzzledly.

"It's very simple. There is no need for them to come out on their own initiative now. When they have suffered enough, they will rebel on their own. As long as they have had enough of the oppression and can no longer endure it and have difficulty surviving, they will naturally rebel..." Lu Feng said.

The sword maniac was stunned and asked in confusion, "Master, are you also preparing to retreat?"

"There is no need to retreat for now. We will just defend Guyue City and not leave. I believe the dark creatures are not fools. There are more cities around their territory than just Guyue City. If they cannot break through this city, they will surely attack another city..." Lu Feng said.

Sword Maniac's eyes lit up. Yes, there are only so many of them now, how can they take care of such a wide range of things?

When the dark creatures attack other cities, they will just have to guard Guyue City...

"Master, but if this is the case, I'm afraid the dark creatures will become uncontrollable in the future, and there will be no way to put an end to them..." said the sword maniac.
