When Zhao Hai woke up, it was already three hours later. He stood up from his bed and stretched his body before walking out of his room.
When he went outside, he saw that the courtyard was still deserted, there was no one at all. The doors of the rooms were still closed, so he didn't know if there was anyone inside.
Zhao Hai thought for a moment before he decided to go to the dining hall to eat something. He didn't know when the battle would start, so he didn't want to fight with the beasts on an empty stomach.
When Zhao Hai arrived at the dining hall, he discovered that there was indeed a person inside. It was Jie Long, and he was the only person inside.
When Zhao Hai entered the dining hall, Jie Long also saw Zhao Hai. He immediately waved his hand towards Zhao Hai and said, "Master Jinghai, come and sit down."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and nodded. Then he took out his bowl and took a bowl of rice. Then he walked towards Jie Long and gave him a salute. "Amitabha, I see Benefactor Jie again. We really are fated to meet." Jie Long nodded and said, "Ah.
Jie Long laughed and said, "Yes, we really do have a lot of fate. Master Jinghai, I heard that you were able to block the attacks of a lot of beasts by yourself?"
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "Even if I was strong, it would still be impossible for me to block the attacks of the beasts. At that time, there were a lot of people on the wall, as well as some rogue cultivators, so they were able to block the attacks of the beasts. I don't know what the situation is like outside."
Jie Long shook his head and said, "I don't know. Last time, I was replaced after an hour. I just took a nap and came to eat. I don't know when he'll send them to kill the enemy again."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Right, we're now facing the beasts. The attacks of the beasts are too crazy. I don't know what's going on outside, but since the rogue cultivators are already on the wall, the situation outside shouldn't be too good. I hope that it's fine."
Jie Long waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter if the rogue cultivators are on the wall or not. Master Jinghai, I won't hide it from you. The reason why we had the rogue cultivators on the wall was to reduce the casualties of the Sealed Sword Sect. It doesn't mean that the Sealed Sword Sect doesn't have the ability to deal with the beasts."
When Zhao Hai heard Jie Long, he couldn't help but smile faintly as he said, "Right, having those Jie Xiu on the walls can indeed reduce the casualties of the Sealing Sword Sect. Moreover, I can see that the Sealing Sword Sect wasn't worried from the beginning. It can be seen that the Sealing Sword Sect didn't think that the beast attack would be a threat. I think that the Sealing Sword Sect is treating this attack as a trial for their disciples." Jie Long smiled and said, "That's right.
Jie Long looked at Zhao Hai in surprise. After some time, he laughed and said, "Master Zhao Hai's eyes are really sharp. Although the beasts are very fierce, the Sealed Sword Sect didn't put them in our eyes. Didn't you see that the Sealed Sword Sect didn't activate their defensive barrier from the beginning to the end? This is a trial for our disciples. However, it's not like the rogue cultivators didn't get any benefits. Their performance will be recorded by the sect and they will be rewarded afterwards. This can also be considered as a special adventure for them. After all, even if they were to adventure outside the city, there's still a chance that they might die, right? "
Zhao Hai chanted Buddha's name and said, "Amitabha. Benefactor Jie is right. No matter what, there's still a chance that they might die. And if we manage to repel the beasts, the rogue cultivators would be able to obtain a lot of benefits compared to when they were outside. Am I right?"
Jie Long gave Zhao Hai a thumbs-up and said, "Master Jing Hai, you can see that those Rogue Cultivators don't know what's going on. Some of them are still complaining, but they don't think about how to save their own lives. As long as they can keep their lives, then after the beast attack, their income would be enough to make them happy for a while." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Master Jing Hai, you can see that those Rogue Cultivators don't know what's going on.
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and didn't say anything. On the other hand, Jie Long looked at Zhao Hai mysteriously and said, "But it must be said that the one who obtained the most benefits this time isn't our Sealing Sword Sect nor the Rogue Cultivators. It's someone else. Master Jing Hai, you'll know who that person is." Jie Long smiled faintly and didn't say anything.
Zhao Hai looked at Jie Long's appearance and felt that Jie Long's expression was strange. He knew that Jie Long must know something about him. The most likely possibility was that he was fancied by the Sealed Sword Sect and was invited back to the sect.
Although the Sealed Sword Sect was a sword cultivator sect, this didn't mean that everyone in the sect was sword cultivator. In fact, there were still other cultivators in the sect. There were also a lot of Buddhist cultivators. However, these people had a special status in the sect. Therefore, under normal circumstances, they wouldn't appear.
However, all of these were just guesses. Zhao Hai didn't say anything. He just whispered a Buddhist prayer to Jie Long and then directly ate his food.
Jie Long looked at Zhao Hai's appearance and became even more curious. He felt that Zhao Hai wasn't a simple person. For a rogue cultivator to be able to practice a body cultivation technique to such a degree was very shocking. He also paid attention to the battle between Zhao Hai and the beasts. The reason why Zhao Hai was able to defeat the beasts was because of his body cultivation technique. It had nothing to do with his spiritual qi. Such a person was definitely a rare talent.
But Jie Long didn't keep staring at Zhao. He also ate the food in front of him. After a while, the two of them finished eating. After eating, Zhao washed the bowl, then filled it with hot water and sat in the dining room to drink. Jie Long followed suit and filled a cup with hot water, then sat in the dining room and drank.
The two drank while chatting. What they talked about was nothing more than Zhao Hai's experience in the Sealed Sword City. There was nothing special about it.
At this time, a voice was suddenly heard, "Those who have rested for more than two hours, go to the city walls. Those who have rested for more than two hours, go to the city walls."
Zhao Hai and Jie Long stood up and looked at each other. Then Jie Long said, "Let's go. It seems like the beasts haven't retreated. Hateful, hateful. Sooner or later, I will kill my way to the three mountains and exterminate all of them."
Zhao Hai nodded and didn't say anything. Then the two quickly walked outside. At this time, people started to come out from the rooms in the courtyard. The number of people who came out this time was even fewer than before. There were less than a hundred people, and all of them were injured.
When they arrived at the northern wall, they were startled. This was because they discovered that some beasts had already reached the city walls. Upon seeing this, Zhao Hai and the others didn't say anything and directly rushed towards the city walls.
However, it didn't take long for Zhao Hai and the others to discover that something was wrong. The beasts that reached the city walls were very strong. Some of them were even at the Ethereal Stage.
Zhao Hai and the others simply weren't a match for these beasts. However, they still had a lot of people. Moreover, the experts of the Sealed Sword Sect were also present. Naturally, these experts would be able to deal with the beasts. What they needed to deal with were the Qi Refining and Spirit Realm beasts that followed the beasts to the city walls.
The battle continued for about an hour. There were already a lot of casualties on the city walls. Zhao Hai's clothes were also torn in several places. However, his body didn't suffer any injuries. After all, his body's defense was very strong. Ordinary Qi Refining and Spirit Realm beasts wouldn't be able to cause any harm to him.
At this moment, a roar of a beast came from afar. Following this roar, all the beasts on the city wall jumped down from the city wall. Then, they directly left the city wall. This made the people who were fighting on the city wall stunned for a moment.
It's been more than a day and the beasts didn't stop attacking. Moreover, they were attacking fiercely. They didn't retreat even once. But this time, they actually retreated. This made the people on the city walls feel as if they were in a dream.
After a while, no one knew who was the first to cheer. Then, everyone on the city wall cheered. Looking at the city wall that was stained with blood, everyone felt joy and rejoiced from the bottom of their hearts. They rejoiced that they were still alive. Being alive was more important than anything else.
Zhao Hai stood there and looked at the direction where the beasts retreated. Then he whispered the name of Buddha. At this time, Jie Long arrived beside Zhao Hai. He looked at Zhao Hai and laughed, "Master Jinghai, did you see that? The beasts retreated. They retreated. Hahahaha."
Naturally, Zhao Hai saw it. He also knew that Jie Long didn't know what he was talking about. Jie Long was just happy. Because of this, Zhao Hai also whispered the name of Buddha. Jie Long didn't care about him, he was still laughing. One could see that he was very happy.
At this time, the people from the Sealing Sword Sect began to arrange for some people to rest. These cultivators were the ones who were fighting on the wall when Zhao Hai and the others arrived. It was obvious that they hadn't rested for more than three hours. They looked as if they were fished out of the water, their sweat was all over their bodies. They were too tired. Some of them were even supported down the wall by others. When they were fighting, they could still grit their teeth and persevere. But now that the beasts had retreated, they couldn't hold on any longer. They didn't even have the strength to walk, they could only rely on others to support them down the wall. But nobody laughed at them, they were all heroes.
Zhao Hai could feel that the strength of the attack this time was beyond the Sealed Sword Sect's expectations. Because of this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but be worried. If the beasts continued to attack at this rate, then it would be hard to say what would happen to the city.
But what Zhao didn't expect was that after the monster beasts retreated, they didn't appear again. Slowly, he looked around, and besides the corpses of the monster beasts, he couldn't see a single living monster beast. It was as if the monster beasts had all disappeared. Zhao was puzzled, but at the same time, he was relieved. If the monster beasts really retreated and didn't attack the city, then that would be great.
