Drunk Immortal Gourd
Chapter 2220: Siege
Indeed, there were 18 detachments of cultivators sent by Wuhuo City before and after, but now only 14 are left after integration, with a loss of more than 2,000 people. The weakest ones are all in the Spiritualization Realm, which are the backbone of the Immortal Cultivation World. Wuhuo City is already behind in strength among the nearby secondary immortal cities, and now it has lost so many backbones. It is afraid that it will be difficult to recover in three to five thousand years. Therefore, Wumeng Saint also hopes that Wuhuo City can minimize the casualties of cultivators in the subsequent battles.
At this time, the entire battlefield has been cleaned up, and only a dozen demons killed by them were found. The rest were all the corpses of Qianji City used by the demons. Naturally, the harvest was very few.
Two people of the Spirit Clan died, and about four or five were injured. They were all Spiritualization cultivators, and more than a dozen of the Demon Clan died, and the leader was a ninth-level Refining Void. At the same time, their conspiracy to stop the Spirit Clan army from killing Qianji City was also destroyed. Although there was no harvest, it was also a small victory.
Although there were not many casualties in the battle, many people's true essence and physical strength were seriously depleted. It would be difficult to deal with danger if they continued to move forward, so Wumeng Saint ordered them to rest for two hours in the original place. After their physical strength and true essence were almost restored, they continued to move towards Qianji City.
The speed of their movement was even slower in the following journey. The closer they were to Qianji City, the more dangerous it was. They had to be on guard. The group walked and stopped for nearly two days before they arrived near Qianji City. It was unknown whether the demons knew that the obstacles outside were useless and withdrew the demon cultivators outside the city, or whether there was no ambush before the second half. This section of the journey was relatively smooth and no obstacles were encountered.
This place has arrived at the foot of Qianji City. The east gate of Qianji City is more than ten miles ahead. For high-level cultivators, this distance is equivalent to standing face to face and arriving in an instant. The gates of Qianji City were closed, the city defense formation was activated, and a faint black fog filled the surroundings. Only a few demons could be seen on the city wall, looking around, as if observing the outside.
Wumeng Saint observed for a long time but could not figure out what was going on, so he summoned several subordinates to ask about the situation in other battlefields. The other six groups had sent back news. Huanglian Saint, Wangri Saint, and Heima Saint had all arrived at Qianji City. Qianya Saint, Wanfeng Saint, and Guanchen Saint would take two to six hours. Only Qingyuan City and Xuansha City in the south had not received any news. It was unknown whether they were dragged by the demons halfway or were too disdainful to answer them.
Although Wumeng Saint was angry, he had no better way. He could only patiently appease everyone and continue to wait. This time it was a collective action, and everyone must be in step to avoid loopholes in the encirclement, so the news from Qingyuan City and Xuansha City still had to wait.
Six hours later, the other three cities responded one after another, saying that they had arrived at Qianji City. At this time, Qingyuan City and Xuansha City finally had news, saying that they had encountered many obstacles along the way. They had been fighting hard all the way, which delayed their journey and they had no time to pass the news to everyone. They still needed half a day to arrive at Qianji City, so everyone should be patient.
However, Wumeng Saint felt that this was definitely not the reason. It was probably because Qingyuan City and Xuansha City did not set out at the agreed time, so they arrived late. The other seven teams were able to arrive on time and did not encounter too many obstacles on the way. Why did Qingyuan City and Xuansha City encounter them? Their team was composed of two cities, and the number of people was much larger than that of other teams. What difficulties could not be solved?
If all the teams acted in this way, there would be countless changes in the mission of attacking the demon clan this time. When the Lord of Tianjian City arrived, I would definitely report their misdeeds.
After waiting patiently for a long time, and confirming that Qingyuan City and Xuansha City had arrived at Qianji City, Wumeng Saint Lord then conveyed the signal of attacking the city to everyone. During the waiting period, Wumeng Saint Lord thought of countless countermeasures, but none of them were very suitable. The demons were hiding in the city, and no strategy could be used. Only by breaking the city defense formation of Qianji City first, the two sides could fight hand to hand.
The spiritual monks were waiting for this moment. After Wumeng Saint Lord conveyed the message, the eight teams all launched an attack on the city defense formation of Qianji City. The total number of people in the spiritual team was close to 20,000. The momentum of the attack was earth-shaking, and the space within tens of thousands of miles seemed to be shaking violently.
Qianji City was only slightly stronger than an ordinary fifth-level fairy city, and it was not even as good as a fourth-level fairy city. It was only because of its important location and the production of black jade stones that it was upgraded to a higher level of management. If the original city defense formation of Qianji City encountered such an attack, it would have been broken several times long ago.
However, the current city defense formation has been transformed by the demons with great efforts, and its power has been strengthened countless times. Qianji City is the bridgehead for the demons to invade the spirits, and it is focused on operation. The city defense formation must not be simple. It has already surpassed the level of fusion. It is also arranged in the city. The defense ability is much stronger than the Wanling Yugui formation of Wumeng Saint Lord at the beginning. It cannot be broken in just a few hours.
Even so, the formation still showed violent fluctuations under the attack of many spirit cultivators, especially the city gate position that was attacked by everyone. The formation shook even more violently, as if the attack was a little stronger, the formation here would immediately fall apart.
The city gate in the formation was also affected by this attack, and cracks and tilts appeared in many places. If it were placed in the war in the secular world, it would be time for the subordinates to prepare before entering the city.
The demons seemed to have been prepared for this. No one knew what they did inside. The violently fluctuating city defense formation suddenly stagnated, and then stabilized. After that, the spirit monks launched another attack, and the city defense formation only rippled slightly, and the fluctuations were not as violent as before.
Wumeng Saint Lord couldn't help but frowned. It seemed that breaking the formation this time was not as simple as imagined. Then he gave an order to divide the entire team into two groups. One group was responsible for attacking the formation, and the other group temporarily rested and waited until the attacking group could not hold on. They would take over.
The resting group was also responsible for vigilance to prevent the demons in the city from counterattacking. If the spirit monks were all attacking the city defense formation with all their strength, and the demon monks suddenly withdrew the formation to attack them, the spirits would definitely suffer heavy losses without any defense.
No one knew what the demons in Qianji City were doing. The spiritual cultivators outside the city had been attacking the formation continuously for a while. The task was not too difficult and there was no danger to their lives, but it consumed a lot of their true energy. They had to take turns to recuperate every two hours. But it was much easier than the last time they were defending against the demons in the Wanling Turtle Formation.
