In order to create pressure on the human defenders, they cooperated with Nightmare's assassination operation.
The Night Demon Commander and the demon army attacked non-stop for an hour.
The defensive formation covering the North City Gate was breached eight times, with cracks and holes blasted out each time.
However, the cracks and potholes in the defensive formation will soon be repaired.
Except for nightmares and the poisonous gas from the demonic mist, which entered Zhongzhou City through the cracks, the demonic army could not enter at all.
Now, Nightmare's actions have been exposed, his plan has failed, and he has escaped from Zhongzhou City.
The Night Demon Commander no longer wasted time and the lives of the demon soldiers, and immediately ordered the attack to stop.
After just a hundred breaths of time, hundreds of thousands of undead skeletons and more than 600,000 demon soldiers receded like the tide, quickly leaving Zhongzhou City.
The shouts of death and various loud noises near the North City Gate gradually weakened and dissipated.
The sun is about to rise and a new day is coming.
This was the end of the first battle between the two armies.
Although, this battle was just a tentative attack by the demons.
But the battle was fierce and the result was shocking.
Outside the North City Gate, the moat was littered with countless bones and demon corpses, and the river water turned dark red.
On the wasteland, piles of bones and hills were left, as well as demon corpses all over the ground.
At least 400,000 undead skeletons and more than 300,000 demon soldiers were killed in this battle.
Tens of thousands of human defenders were killed and 100,000 injured.
Five military camps in Zhongzhou City were destroyed, and more than 600,000 soldiers were massacred by the Nightmare.
In comparison, the human race's losses were even more severe.
After the battle, the soldiers immediately got busy, cleaning up the battlefield, strengthening the defensive formations, and rebuilding the military camp.
The emperor's master and several commanders rushed to the city lord's palace to report the situation to the emperor in person.
After the emperor learned of the situation, he thought about it for a while and then issued several orders to ask everyone to strengthen the defense of Zhongzhou City.
Especially those defensive formations need to be further strengthened to prevent nightmares from sneaking into the city again and causing chaos.
…
Inside the Imperial Palace, the Imperial Palace was still silent.
In the dimly lit secret room, Ji Tianxing was still sitting cross-legged on the ice jade bed, practicing his exercises with great concentration.
In seven more days, the two-month deadline is up.
At that time, the ancient divine formation in the secret room will be closed and the time-accelerating effect will be lost.
Nowadays, Ji Tianxing has reached the third level of the Sword Soul Way. His martial arts foundation is more powerful and his strength has been invisibly increased by two times.
He is still meditating on a unique skill, the fifth sword of the Nine Heaven-Burying Swords, the Seven-Star Sword.
Before Zang Tian entered the Nine Heaven Cauldron, he taught him the fifth sword technique.
The power of this sword technique is too powerful, and the training requirements are also very high.
Only when he reaches the Yuanshen realm can he possibly succeed in cultivation.
Seven Star Sword, one sword breaks seven stars.
If Ji Tianxing is strong enough, the fourth sword can cut through the sky and glimpse the starry sky outside.
This fifth sword can break seven stars with one sword.
The stars are out of reach. The seemingly small stars are actually another magnificent world.
It can be seen from this that the power of this Seven-Star Sword has reached such a terrifying level!
It is no exaggeration to say that this is truly a god-level swordsmanship!
Only strong men in the Martial God Realm can unleash the true power of swordsmanship.
Ji Tianxing paid no attention to the affairs of the outside world and just practiced hard to improve his strength as much as possible.
When the magical power is completed, it will be the time for him to return to the mountain and take revenge.
…
The day passes quickly.
After a whole day of rest, Zhongzhou City temporarily calmed down.
Several large defensive formations were also strengthened by the emperor and commanders, making the defenses even tighter.
Late that night, another dull sound of "rumbling" came from the north of Zhongzhou City.
That was the sound of thousands of troops marching across the earth, carried far away in the silent night.
The human soldiers sensed something was wrong and realized that the demon army was about to attack again, so they immediately blew the horns to defend against the enemy.
The millions of soldiers guarding Beicheng were immediately on alert.
The power of the defensive formation was pushed to its limit, forming a dazzling seven-colored light shield that illuminated half of the city.
Hundreds of thousands of elite warriors climbed onto the city wall, lined up a bow and crossbow array, set up various defensive equipment, and stood ready.
The Imperial Master and other commanders hurried to the North City Gate and took command personally.
However, an hour later, an army of more than three million demons arrived outside Zhongzhou City and divided into two groups.
The first army was commanded by the Dark Night Demon Commander and attacked the North City Gate with all its strength.
Another army, led by Nightmare, stormed the east city gate with all its strength.
Seeing this situation, the Imperial Master quickly made corresponding arrangements and sent several commanders to assist Northern Xinjiang Divine General and Donglin Divine General Xiao Han respectively.
Not long after, the fighting began.
The killing cries and roars of millions of soldiers converged into a deafening torrent of sound waves that rang over Zhongzhou City.
The two demon armies launched a desperate attack.
This attack was very fierce and was definitely not a test. The demon army seemed determined to break through the defenses of Zhongzhou City overnight.
In front of the demon army's camp were hundreds of thousands of undead skeletons and demonic ghosts, attacking desperately.
Hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers set up battle formations and used the combined attack battle formations to release attacks comparable to those of powerful souls, constantly bombarding Zhongzhou City's defensive formations.
The demons even used more than two thousand ferocious monsters.
These monsters are of different types and have different shapes, but they are all as huge as mountains, extremely powerful, and possess extremely terrifying destructive power.
They roared angrily, unleashed powerful killing moves, and stormed the two city gates.
The pressure from the human defenders was extremely high, and several large defensive formations were quickly breached, revealing dense cracks and pits.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Sons of Blood God, who had been preparing for their attack, quickly released poison, plague, blood and demonic energy, and poured them into Zhongzhou City.
They also caused super earthquakes and floods, and even triggered surging magma from the core of the earth to pour into Zhongzhou City.
Outside the North City Gate and the East City Gate, the scenes of fighting and fighting were fierce and chaotic.
The human soldiers soon suffered a large number of casualties, and some people continued to die or were seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness.
The human army stationed in the city continuously reinforced the two battlefields to supplement the vacant numbers.
The battle lasted for a full hour, and the demon army's offensive was still fierce, showing no intention of retreating.
The emperor's master and several commanders all realized that the demon clan's strong attack tonight might not be that simple. There must be some conspiracy and back-up plan.
Just when everyone gathered together and discussed this matter with solemn expressions, a bloody light flew from the northern night sky.
From the mountains, rivers and wastelands in the distance, a dull sound of 'rumbling' was also heard.
It was obvious that a large number of demon soldiers were rushing over as fast as the wind.
