Chapter 291: Siege

A day passed like this, and at night, Zhao Zhong suddenly felt something, immediately opened his eyes from his cultivation, and then quickly rushed to a place.

Soon, Zhao Zhong came to a cave entrance, the width of the cave was three or four meters wide, looking at the pitch black inside, Zhao Zhong immediately used his divine sense to probe into it.

Soon, in Zhao Zhong's divine sense, there was something that made him feel that there was something powerful aura. It was two eggs, very large eggs, the size of a basketball, and there was a trace of aura in them, which was richer than the aura in the air.

Looking at these two eggs, and such a big hole, Zhao Zhong could quickly think that this was the nest of the two nighthawks, and those two eggs, of course, could be nighthawk eggs.

The reason why demon beasts are called demon beasts is because they can absorb the aura between heaven and earth, and then they are stronger and more spiritual than ordinary animals.

Now those two eggs are not absorbing aura, but exuding aura, it is estimated that because there is no nighthawk hatching, so the life of the eggs is gradually weakening.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhong frowned slightly, these were nothing, but Zhao Zhong could feel the energy contained in the egg, as if it was like a spirit stone.

Thinking of this, an inspiration flashed in Zhao Zhong's mind, and an idea suddenly rose.

The cave is ten meters deep, it is dry, and there is no smell. Zhao Zhong didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately walked inside briskly, coming to the two nighthawk eggs. Zhao Zhong looked at it, and then sat cross-legged next to him.

After Zhao Zhong sat down, he reached out and picked up a nighthawk egg, which was very heavy, as if it was all stones. Zhao Zhong began to slowly absorb the Nighthawk egg with his hand, trying to see if he could absorb it.

did not disappoint, this nighthawk egg is really like a spirit stone, being absorbed by itself. Zhao Zhong didn't hesitate much, and immediately closed his eyes and sped up the absorption of the Nighthawk Egg. At the same time, he also began to cultivate.

And so it goes. Zhao Zhong's cultivation speed became even faster. I don't know how long it took for Zhao Zhong to wake up, and looked at the nighthawk egg in his hand, which had become very light. It was as if only the shell was left. Everything inside has been absorbed by itself.

Whereas. To Zhao Zhong's surprise, he actually broke through to the ninth layer of qi refining, which surprised Zhao Zhong. It used to be on the eighth floor. Now with a nighthawk egg, the speed is so much faster.

Zhao Zhong was very pleased, and immediately did not hesitate, after throwing away the eggshell, he immediately picked up the other Nighthawk egg, and then continued to absorb and cultivate.

For a whole night, Zhao Zhong completely absorbed the two nighthawk eggs. The harvest is huge, Zhao Zhong's cultivation is already the ninth layer of qi refining, and there is a faint feeling that he is about to step into the foundation building period.

This made Zhao Zhong very excited, and in this way, his cultivation would become even stronger. But now that there are no more such nighthawk eggs, Zhao Zhong probed with his divine sense, wanting to see if there would be such eggs. Now that Zhao Zhong's divine sense has been able to detect a range of more than five hundred meters, even the sea awareness space has directly increased to ten cubic meters, Zhao Zhong is really excited.

After probing, he found that there were no nighthawk eggs, and Zhao Zhong was a little disappointed. But it doesn't matter, since the space of knowing the sea has increased so much now, Zhao Zhong immediately began to collect spirit grass on Jigu Mountain again.

After collecting for a day, and once again filling the space of knowing the sea, Zhao Zhong ate something, and then continued to return to the cave to cultivate.

I don't know how long it has been, Zhao Zhong suddenly felt that the ground was shaking, as if something was hitting the ground. Zhao Zhong immediately opened his eyes and did not continue his cultivation.

Zhao Zhong probed his divine sense, and although he was only five hundred meters away, he could see that there were many first- and second-level demon beasts running in one direction. Seeing such a scene, Zhao Zhong immediately wondered, what were these demon beasts running desperately for.

Zhao Zhong immediately came out of the hole, it was daytime, and soon Zhao Zhong could see that in the surrounding forest, there were many demon beasts running, violent, although there was no loud roar or anything like that, but he could feel that these demon beasts were running in one direction in an orderly manner.

Seeing such a scene, Zhao Zhong immediately thought, could it be that these demon beasts were going to attack Loulan City. Zhao Zhong didn't know how long he had been cultivating here, but it seemed that when he came out of Loulan City, there would be demon beasts attacking the city in about five days, and now, these demon beasts were collectively running in one direction, and it was estimated that they were going in the direction of Loulan City.

Thinking of this, Zhao Zhong did not continue to stay here, but ran the cloud shadow step quickly towards Loulan City. Zhao Zhong did not run on the ground, but jumped on the tree and ran from the tree. Now Zhao Zhong has the skill of being as light as a swallow, so he can quickly walk through trees as if he were on the ground.

In this way, those demon beasts below will not be able to find Zhao Zhong, and Zhao Zhong's speed is also very fast, even if there are more advanced demon beasts to discover, but at that time, Zhao Zhong's figure quickly disappeared from its field of vision.

It's noon during the day, and these monsters seem to be hurrying as if they are tireless. When Zhao Zhong came to Jigu Mountain before, he walked for a long time, but this time it was in the fast running of Yunyingbu, and with the direction of these demon beasts running, more than an hour later, Zhao Zhong saw Loulan City.

Zhao Zhong hid on top of a tall tree and looked at Loulan City from afar. Now that Loulan City has closed the city gates, all the people who were originally around have entered the city, and the outside has become very deserted.

On the top of the city wall, there were many guards, most of them holding bows and arrows, and the arrows were stained with fire oil, guarding against them. Zhao Zhong also saw huge bed crossbows hanging on the city wall, lined in rows, aiming at the surrounding demon beasts. There are even catapults, not only stone-throwers, but also fireball-throwers.

However, the battle did not start now, because the surrounding demon beasts did not start to attack, but gathered two hundred meters away, standing there one by one, with a fierce light in their eyes, looking at the people on the city wall. These demon beasts are like waiting for something, and they have not started to attack the city, and they don't care that there are demon beasts behind them.

These demon beasts are all very low-level, all of them are around the first or second level, and it is rare to see demon beasts above the third level. However, Zhao Zhong was running on the way, and Zhao Zhong saw a third-level demon beast. And what Zhao Zhong saw was running on the ground, and he didn't see anything flying in the sky, so it is estimated that he hasn't come yet, maybe after a while, there will be demon beasts flying in the sky.

The people in Loulan City have already experienced the siege of demon beasts, so they don't see that these people are too worried. Some people still have ecstasy on their faces, as if they can kill demon beasts, which is his greatest intention.

Demon beasts and humans are waiting, humans are waiting for the attack of demon beasts, and demon beasts don't know that Lu Dao is waiting for it.

This is the first time Zhao Zhong has seen such a scene, there are so many demon beasts around, looking at the humans on the city wall with fierce eyes, I really don't understand why these demon beasts do this, and they will act like people. Zhao Zhong quickly guessed a point, it is estimated that these demon beasts must be commanded by more advanced demon beasts, otherwise these demon beasts, who are so good in the Loulan Forest, have to run such a long distance to attack the city here.

These first- and second-level demon beasts are not very tall, and it is impossible for them to attack such a high city wall. And there are humans defending the city wall, if you don't come to some high-level demon beasts, then these ordinary demon beasts will be heavily injured.

However, if the number of these ordinary demon beasts becomes huge, then, if the ammunition and feathers and arrows in the city are exhausted, and the corpses of demon beasts are piled up, then maybe there will really be demon beasts attacking them. However, in this way, Zhao Zhong really didn't understand, if these were going to attack the city for, could they have any precious things in the city?

If that's the case, then Zhao Zhong really wants to know what kind of precious thing is that allows so many demon beasts to attack the city. (To be continued......)
