Ye Xiaocheng was thinking sadly about how to refine the demon king's clone, and the demonic beasts outside began to attack the city on a large scale.
According to the plan discussed by the demon kings, it is not the time to attack the city yet, but the death of Xiaoyue Demon King will break the sky, and their plan will be disrupted.
First of all, the Xiaoyue Tianlang clan quit and demanded an immediate attack on the city. They wanted to break through the city and kill all the human race in the city to avenge their clan leader.
The dozens of demon kings lurking outside the city couldn't hold them back, so they had no choice but to agree to attack first to calm down the anger of the Xiaoyue Sirius clan, and also to test the power of Stone City's protective formation.
Countless first- and second-level monsters, forced by the high-level monsters, swarmed up like ants and bombarded the city defense formation with their claws and heads.
The monks on the city wall watched thousands of densely packed monster beasts attacking together, and were frightened by the formation.
However, several Yuanying bosses were not panicked at all.
If the city defense formation could be breached so easily, they wouldn't have to defend the city and would have gone out to fight the monsters long ago.
The fourth-level top-level formation is not a decoration, and it is not something that these low-level monsters can break through.
Under the bombardment of thousands of monsters, the light curtain of the city defense formation did not move at all.
The monsters attacked for two hours, and they were all exhausted, so they had to retreat.
The young clan leader of the Xiaoyue Tianlang Clan drove his people to attack the city desperately, killing dozens of low-level monsters. He was unable to do anything to defend the city, and in the end he had no choice but to withdraw his troops in tears.
Historically, monsters attacking cities have consumed each other's strength.
The demon clan's method of siege has remained unchanged for thousands of years. First, the lives of low-level demon beasts are used to consume the energy of the city defense array. When the energy of the city defense array is exhausted, it is time for the demon beasts to truly attack the city on a large scale.
The first wave of attacks by the monsters was ineffective, which proved that the city defense formation was reliable, but City Lord Shi and others did not feel relaxed, and their hearts were heavy.
The monsters outside the city now are just vanguard troops, specially used to consume the city defense formation. The real main force is still behind.
If the monsters attack non-stop, based on normal consumption, the city's spiritual stones will only be enough for half a month.
Once a high-level monster begins to attack, the consumption of spirit stones will speed up or even double.
It's hard to say whether new tricks will appear after the demon clan's tentative attack. Everyone defending the city is waiting for that moment to arrive.
"Shi Yuan, is the city defense formation okay?" City Lord Shi Kaifeng asked.
"Don't worry, clan leader. As long as the supply of spiritual stones is guaranteed, there should be no problem if we hold on for half a year." The elder in charge of the formation, named Shi Yuan, said with confidence.
"That's the problem. The city has insufficient spiritual stone reserves. This time the demon clan moved too fast. We didn't have time to purchase the spiritual stones." An elder lamented.
"Clan leader, how is the situation in other cities?" Another elder asked.
"It's not that good. There are already five first-level cities and twelve second-level cities like ours that are under siege. However, the monsters are only attacking tentatively and have not launched a formal attack."
Shi Kaifeng said in a low mood.
Seeing the darkness outside and the monster beasts occupying almost all the open space outside the city, everyone felt anxious and uneasy.
Some of them have experienced the super beast tide five hundred years ago. In that beast tide, the monster beasts also surrounded dozens of cities, but did not attack them. They continued to besiege the city for half a year, and then Only then began the unified siege.
Less than three months after the siege, all the besieged cities fell, and almost all the humans in the city were slaughtered.
The demon tribe used this method to destroy dozens of cities at once, then continued to besiege and attack the next wave of targets, and finally almost defeated the Dream City.
If the demon clan launches a super-large beast wave this time, not to mention the residents of the city, even the Nascent Soul bosses like them will be in trouble.
Ye Xiaocheng is still studying the problem of how to refine the demon king's clone.
"Master, why did this demon king's body shrink? I didn't do anything?" Ye Xiaocheng expressed his doubts.
"Boy, you haven't seen this too often. This is normal." Master Dao Jing said with a smile.
"normal circumstances?"
"Yes, if it is an ordinary monster, its body will not change in size after death, but the shape-shifting monster king is different. Their bodies have been cultivated to be very powerful, and they can maintain their original appearance for hundreds of years even after death. rot."
"Master, what do you mean, if the body has been cultivated to a certain level, it can protect itself even after death?" Ye Xiaocheng asked confused.
"After the death of high-level monsters, the blood all over their bodies will begin to condense and condense into pieces of essence and blood. There is no longer a flow of blood in their blood vessels. This is their secret to keeping their corpses from decaying, and it is also the secret to the transformation of monsters. The instinct of the monster above the king." Dao Jing Master explained.
"It's so awesome. No wonder it's so arrogant and dares to swear an oath of heaven." Ye Xiaocheng said in surprise.
"Of course, this is the power of physical cultivation. Some creatures can cultivate the physical body to the state of immortality. Even if the soul is eliminated, the physical body can still remain unchanged for thousands of years, and the heart can still maintain normal function. Even if it beats, the blood can flow normally, and in the end, it is possible to regenerate a new soul and then resurrect." Void Mirror said.
"Ah, Master Void, this is a legend, have you ever seen such a physical body?" Ye Xiaocheng felt that this was a fantasy.
"Boy, you are just starting now. The road to cultivation is endless. There are too many things you can't imagine. Sao Nian, work hard." Void Mirror joked.
The body of the Void Mirror, that is, the small mirror, emits a ray of light and shines on the body of Xiaoyue Demon King.
Sure enough, Ye Xiaocheng saw that there was no blood flowing in the blood vessels of the Demon King's body, but in the Demon King's huge heart, there were eighteen drops of blood essence the size of a thumb, like blood-red diamonds.
"Master Void, can you still see through this body?" Ye Xiaocheng's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide.
Ye Xiaocheng's natal magic weapon is also the Void Mirror, but he knows nothing about the function of the Void Mirror.
"Of course, isn't this the most basic operation?" Void Mirror replied very seriously without any intention of boasting.
"Fortunately, the blood has not been lost. If you are lucky, from this blood essence, you may be able to obtain the bloodline magical power of the Xiaoyue Demonic Wolf clan." Master Daojing said with great satisfaction.
"Master, are you saying that the Wolf King's body has shrunk because his blood has condensed into blood essence?" Ye Ling'er listened for a long time and finally understood.
"Ling'er is still smart. He can tell with just one point. He is much smarter than the kid's head." Xukong Jing praised.
Ye Xiaocheng rolled his eyes at the two elders.
That's too much. Even if you are biased, don't make it so obvious, okay? You don't care, I'm still embarrassed.
However, he finally figured out the reason for the shrinkage of the demon king's body. According to the Taoist master, the demon king's body can be restored to its original size.
But there is a prerequisite, he must control the body of the demon king, this is very important.
Generally speaking, the larger the monster's body, the higher its level and the stronger its combat effectiveness.
Ye Xiaocheng didn't want to be busy for a long time, and the clone he finally made would have greatly reduced abilities.
"Brother, let's go out and find something delicious." Ye Ling'er begged.
"They should have all kinds of delicious food here, ask them to deliver it." Ye Xiaocheng said.
"No, I still want to go shopping. I haven't been here before." Ye Linger continued to act coquettishly.
"Okay, I'm really convinced by you. People in the city must be in panic now. If you are in the mood to go shopping, I'm afraid that others are not in the mood to do business."
"What are you afraid of? As long as the two of us are here, nothing will happen to this city?" Ye Ling'er knew something in her heart.
She knew what the two old men behind her were capable of. Not to mention tens of thousands of demonic beasts, even millions of demonic beasts could be destroyed in a snap.
She once begged the old man Void to drive all these monsters back to the mountains, but the old man said that this was a training for the two of them, and he would not take action.
Although the two old men loved her in every possible way, they refused to slack off in training, so Ye Linger stopped pestering her. But she also knew that Brother Xiaocheng could fight off these monsters.
She clearly remembered that her brother had a flying shuttle, which was extremely powerful.
As soon as the two reached the first floor, the steward immediately ran over and asked them what they wanted to do.
Ye Xiaocheng replied that he should go out for a walk and see the scene in the city.
The steward smiled bitterly and said: "You two adults should be more careful. People in the city are unstable now, and anything can happen."
"Anything will happen? Tell me what will happen." Ye Xiaocheng felt very sensitively that something was wrong.
"Well, I have also heard from the elders that there may be monster spies in the city. They will wait for opportunities to cause chaos, such as murder and arson, assassination of important people, etc. The purpose is to mess up the city." When I get anxious, sweat breaks out from my head.
