A day passed.
Both sides were still in a stalemate, and it was hard to tell who would win.
The process of the battle was very dry and boring, and there was nothing praiseworthy about it.
After all, the three thousand over soldiers of Kongming Temple and the twenty thousand Beast Clan citizens were fighting through the defensive array.
Before the array was breached, only the soldiers of Kongming Temple were at a disadvantage.
The four Hall Masters had to summarize the results of the first day's battle and report to the First Hall Master.
The main content of the report was the number of soldiers under each Hall Master's command that had been sacrificed.
Thirty-two soldiers under the Fifth Hall Master were sacrificed on the first day, and fifteen were seriously injured.
Twenty-six elite Divine Kings under the Fourth Hall Master were killed in battle, and eighteen were seriously injured and lost the ability to fight.
Under the Third Hall Master …
The Divine Kings under the Second Palace Master …
In the end, the conclusion was that one hundred and twenty elite Divine Kings were sacrificed on the first day, and ninety were seriously injured and lost the ability to fight.
In addition, there was a small problem with the Fourth Hall Master's warship, and it needed to stop the battle for a day before it could be repaired.
The four Hall Masters thought that the First Hall Master would fly into a rage after receiving the battle report, and he would be very disappointed in everyone.
After all, the four armies had not breached the defensive array, and they had not started a direct battle with the Beast Clan, and there were already such casualties …
This was too shocking!
But to everyone's surprise, the First Hall Master was calm after reading the battle report, and he did not have much of a reaction.
It was as if the number of casualties was within his expectations, and he did not find it strange.
Most importantly, more than a hundred people had been sacrificed on the first day, and there were still a few days left.
By the time the defensive array was breached, wouldn't they have to sacrifice seven to eight hundred elite Divine Kings?
How could the First Hall Master not be moved by such heavy losses?
The four Hall Masters were puzzled, but they did not dare to ask. They could only try to figure it out secretly.
Not long after, the Hall Masters finally understood.
They all recalled what the First Hall Master had said when he had decided to go all out to kill Ji Tianxing.
As long as they could capture the young Hong Tribe God Emperor, they would not hesitate to sacrifice all the elite Divine Kings under the Kongming Temple!
When the four Palace Masters heard this, they only thought that it was an exaggeration and that the First Palace Master only wanted to express his determination.
Unexpectedly, the First Palace Master really thought so.
…
The first day ended, and the second day arrived.
The dull and boring battle did not stop for even a moment. It was still ongoing.
"Rumble!" The earth-shattering sound of explosions reverberated between heaven and earth.
Endless shards of divine light mixed with the violent shockwaves, forming a colorful storm of divine light that spread out in all directions, engulfing the heavens and the earth.
The land within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles had long been reduced to ruins. It had been repeatedly scoured and bombarded, layer after layer flattened.
Twenty-four hours had finally passed.
At the end of the second day, the four Hall Masters once again counted the casualties of their subordinates and reported it to the Head Hall Master.
Today, the four Palace Masters had slightly adjusted their battle plan.
They knew that this was going to be a protracted battle, so they couldn't sacrifice their soldiers like they did yesterday. They had to control the number of casualties.
Reality proved that the adjustments made by the four Palace Masters were effective.
Only eighty elite Divine Kings had died in today's battle, and only fifty or so had been seriously injured and lost the ability to fight.
After the four Palace Masters reported the battle situation, they thought that the Head Hall Master would feel gratified. Even if there were no substantial rewards, he would still praise them verbally.
But in reality, the Head Hall Master did not have any reaction after reading the battle report.
This made the four Palace Masters understand that the Head Hall Master did not care about the casualties of his subordinates, nor did he care about the process.
He only needed results!
The four Palace Masters understood the Head Hall Master's intentions and continued to participate in the battle. They attacked in an orderly and planned manner.
As for the interior of Li City, the atmosphere gradually returned to calmness and stability.
The four armies of the Kongming Temple attacked continuously for two days, but they were still unable to break through the defensive formation. They did not even leave a gap or crack.
This filled the tens of thousands of beasts with confidence. They firmly believed that the formation could hold on for another ten days.
Even if the third defensive formation was broken after ten days, they still had a fourth defensive formation!
In short, they would definitely be able to stall for time until reinforcements arrived.
The Kongming Temple needed to report the battle results every day, but the beasts who participated in the battle did not need to.
Anyway, they had the protection of the defensive formation, so there were no casualties.
It was just that everyone's divine power was depleted very quickly, so they could not all participate in the battle at once.
Under the arrangement of Lie Tian and Yan Li, they took turns to participate in the battle and were able to get a certain amount of rest.
Ji Tianxing did not participate in the battle.
As long as the Head Hall Master did not participate in the battle, even if the four Palace Masters joined forces, Lie Tian and Yan Li were enough to control the formation.
Ji Tianxing would only participate when the Head Hall Master personally participated.
Most importantly, he had used too much divine power to set up the defensive formations previously. He needed to replenish it as soon as possible.
In order to recover his divine power as soon as possible, he returned to the distorted space-time of the Divine Pagoda and did not hesitate to consume large amounts of divine pills and elixirs, as well as a sea of cultivation resources.
…
The third day ended.
The death toll of the Kongming Temple was reduced to fifty, and the seriously injured was reduced to forty.
The fourth day, the fifth day, the sixth day …
The number of casualties was gradually decreasing every day.
This proved that the strategy of the four Palace Masters was correct.
However, the power of the four armies' attacks was also gradually weakening, and they were still unable to shake the third defensive formation.
More than three thousand elite Divine Kings all felt extremely exhausted, and their strength was also greatly reduced.
The continuous decline in morale made the four Palace Masters anxious, and they could only ask the Head Hall Master for instructions.
After such a long period of recuperation, the Head Hall Master's strength had recovered to its peak state, and he finally decided to take action.
On the morning of the seventh day, he took out his Emperor-level divine weapon, waved his sacred scepter, and used his most powerful killing move.
His left hand formed a divine art, and his right hand waved the scepter, releasing extremely violent divine power that connected the heaven and earth within a radius of a million miles.
Endless divine power of heaven and earth gathered from all directions, and under his guidance and control, it condensed into a giant sword that could split the heaven and earth apart.
Within a radius of more than a hundred thousand miles, the three thousand soldiers of the Kongming Temple all saw the wind and clouds surging, and sand and rocks flying. Moreover, several giant swords that were tens of thousands of feet long appeared high in the sky.
The divine power of heaven and earth was condensed to the extreme, and the six giant swords that could split the heaven and earth also condensed into a solid form.
At this time, the Head Hall Master used two more strands of Daoist Rhyme, and drew the power of the Heavenly Dao into the six giant swords.
In an instant, the six giant swords became resplendent with golden light, sacred and incomparably powerful, and their power was also raised to the extreme!
"Splitting the heaven and earth apart!"
Finally, the Head Hall Master roared angrily, waving the Hollow Scepter in his right hand, and pointed it at the Li City's defensive formation.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The six giant swords that were resplendent with golden light, carried the power to destroy everything, and slashed at the Li City's defensive formation.
