Chapter 342
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
During these seven days, the Northern Alliance never stopped attacking Shenliu City.
Although the overall attack intensity was much lower than at the beginning, it was only compared to the situation when more than 20 Saint Emperor Realm masters attacked together at the beginning.
In fact, over the past seven days, more than a dozen Saint Emperor Realm masters attacked at the same time every day, and the offensive was as continuous as the waves of the sea, which was still extremely terrifying.
That is, the defense of Shenliu City's city defense formation was amazing, and it could draw energy from the earth veins to continuously repair it. In addition, the ancestors of the Ji family and others had been sitting in the formation and had not left, so it was always stable.
If it were a defense formation of an ordinary force, it would probably have collapsed and disintegrated long ago, and it would be difficult to maintain, and they would have easily killed into the city.
Of course, during these seven days, the Ji family, as the defenders of the city, did not try to counterattack.
They also used various special means to try to kill the opponent's living forces, and even used the formation to launch extremely terrible attacks.
Even two Saint Emperor Realm experts from the Northern Alliance were severely injured.
These two people were surrenderers from the Dongzang Dynasty. They were unlucky because they were arranged by Jiang Hao to redeem themselves on the front line and take the lead with those fearless corpse puppets.
But so what.
Saint Emperor Realm experts have amazing vitality. In addition, the five great doctors of the Medical Saint Valley have extraordinary medical skills. As long as they don't die on the spot, they can be heroes again after recuperating for a period of time.
Moreover, there are many Saint Emperor Realm experts in the Northern Alliance. Even if two people are temporarily lost, it will not have much impact.
On the contrary, during these seven days, the Northern Alliance continuously dispatched a large number of experts from the rear to Shenliu City to join the siege team.
For example, the large and small subordinate forces within their jurisdiction were not mobilized before to conceal their tracks, so now there is naturally no need to cover up anything.
There are also many affiliated forces that originally belonged to the Dongzang Dynasty or even the Ji family. Seeing the strength of the Northern Alliance, they also changed their flags and sent strong men to express their positions at the first time, fearing that they would be punished later.
In a sense, the Ji family is now facing more than 80% of the forces in the entire Dongzang Daoyu.
Even though the time is still short and the number of strong men coming here is not too large, a terrible army composed of tens of thousands of elite strong men has gathered outside Shenliu City.
The so-called elite strong men are at least at the level of saints or even saint kings. Their cultivation strength is far beyond the ordinary strong men. The strength of such a large army can be imagined.
Moreover, as time goes on, the number of strong men gathered outside the city will increase, and the pressure on the Ji family will also increase.
"Ancestor, this won't work."
Ji Tianzheng, the patriarch of the Ji clan, came to the ancestor of the Ji clan and spoke with a tired face.
Although he has not been on the front line of the battlefield these days, he needs to be responsible for the operation of the entire Shenliu City, and he has to worry about all matters, big and small.
After these seven days, he is also exhausted.
Especially when he saw with his own eyes that the number of strong men gathered outside the city is increasing, the pressure of resistance is getting greater and greater, and the daily consumption of elixirs and other supplies is an astonishing number. He is really worried.
The strength of the Ji clan is not to be underestimated. Shenliu City is their home nest. There are nearly 100,000 semi-saints, more than 6,000 saints, and more than 500 saint kings, and even seven saint emperors including the ancestor of the Ji clan.
With such strength, plus the city defense formation of Shenliu City, it should be enough to make Shenliu City impregnable.
At the beginning, the ancestor of the Ji family also thought so, which was one of the reasons why he chose to defend Shenliu City without hesitation.
But what he never expected was that he still greatly underestimated the strength of the Northern Alliance.
Not only did the number of Saint Emperor Realm powerhouses of the Ji family fall short of that of the Northern Alliance, but now even the number of Saint King Realm and Saint Realm powerhouses was also inferior to that of the other party. At present, there were only more Semi-Saint powerhouses.
And this was not because they had more Semi-Saint powerhouses, but because the other party's sphere of influence was too far away from Shenliu City, and the number of spaceships and warships was limited, so the other party's Semi-Saint powerhouses could not rush over for a while.
If the other party was given enough time, let alone 100,000 Semi-Saint powerhouses, even 200,000 or even 300,000 Semi-Saint powerhouses, the Northern Alliance would be able to gather them.
In other words, their Ji family is now at a disadvantage in all aspects.
"Ancestor, now we are just relying on the city defense formation to hold on, and the energy of the earth veins is limited after all.Once there is no earth vein energy to replenish, the power of this city defense formation will be greatly reduced. What should we do then? "
The Ji family ancestor's eyelids sank slightly, and he sat cross-legged in the formation, motionlessly looking at the direction outside the city, like a sculpture.
In fact, he was not unaware of what Ji Tianzheng said.
On the contrary, he knew some situations better than Ji Tianzheng.
But what can we do if we know it? Without a solution, it will be useless.
"Since the Ji family is short of manpower, we can forcibly recruit from the large and small forces in the city and plant restrictions on them in advance. We are not afraid that they will not be obedient."
The Ji family ancestor was silent for a while, and then spoke with a cold face.
"Ancestor, in this way, our Ji family will offend too many people! ”
As the most prosperous ancient city in the East Tibetan Dao Domain, Shenliu City has naturally attracted many forces, as well as an astonishing number of independent cultivators, many of whom are also good players.
Because the Ji family suddenly closed the city gates, everyone was left in the city and could not leave.
If they really wanted to forcibly recruit, they could indeed temporarily recruit a lot of people.
“And this is just a temporary solution.” Ji Tianzheng advised earnestly.
But the ancestor of the Ji family was obviously determined.
“Even if it is just a temporary solution, it is better than immediate death. As long as you hold on for a little longer, you may be able to find a way out. Let Ji Kaishan and Ji Kaiyang accompany you. Anyone who dares to disobey will be killed without mercy! "
Ji Kaishan and Ji Kaiyang were the other two Saint Emperors of the Ji family. With them accompanying them, naturally no one could resist.
Seeing that the ancestor had made up his mind, Ji Tianzheng had no choice but to obey the order.
This forced conscription naturally caused chaos in the city, and there were countless resistance.
However, the Ji family did not care at all. For the resistance, all were suppressed with iron blood, and countless people were killed and injured for a while.
Finally, 50,000 strong men above the semi-saint realm were successfully recruited to join the city defense team.
The addition of this group of fresh troops made the city defense force The number of people was greatly increased.
However, in such a high-intensity offensive and defensive war, the number of casualties every day was an astonishing number.
Even with the addition of 50,000 new troops, the Ji family only survived for five or six days.
After five or six days, the number of strong men gathered outside the city exceeded 150,000.
And nearly half of them were strong men above the saint realm.
This was far beyond the reach of the defenders.
More importantly, the Nine-headed Venerable, who had been drilling underground for half a month, finally came out again.
"My lord, leave it to me next!"
The Nine-headed Venerable said confidently.
Jiang Hao smiled immediately.
He knew that the end of the Ji family... was coming soon!
