Chapter 1858: Chapter 1857: Siege (9th Update!)

Boom boom boom!!!

The ground trembled as countless yellow sands flew up from the surface, swirling backwards into the sky.

A series of massive vibrations came from up ahead, rumbling like thunder, with sounds rising wave after wave, spreading across hundreds of thousands of miles.

"Hmm? Are they sieging the city?" Zhang Xiaohao pondered with a frown.

Using Divine Thought, he scanned ahead. Within a thousand miles, a colossal Barbaric Beast Army was attacking a gigantic city. The city stretched for hundreds of thousands of miles, and the City Protection Array rose up from the city, keeping the immense Barbaric Beast Army at bay.

Meanwhile, numerous cultivators were deploying magic artifacts through the City Protection Array to bombard the Barbaric Beast Army outside.

Various attacks sounded continuously, with frightful waves transmitting wildly around.

"Are these beasts really just sieging for food? Or is there some other hidden reason?" Zhang Xiaohao mused secretly.

Roar roar roar!!!

Suddenly, fierce roars erupted from the mouths of the beasts, echoing around.

The boundless Barbaric Beast Army seemed to have consumed Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills, frantically charging forward.

An enormous Integrating Beast, at the Integration Middle Stage, seeing Zhang Xiaohao standing still as a speck, grabbed him easily and tossed him onto its shoulder, raging towards the front.

"Um! Is this really okay?" Zhang Xiaohao thought to himself, utterly speechless.

Sitting on the shoulder of the Integration Middle Stage Beast, he took out a panda cigarette and lazily started smoking, faint smoke exhaling from his mouth. As for everything else, for now, there was nothing more he could do.

An hour later.

The overwhelmingly large Barbaric Beast Army, like a vast ocean, surrounded the gigantic city completely.

Hundreds to thousands of giant beasts, standing several hundred feet tall, held terrifying iron rods hundreds of feet long, coldly standing at the front, releasing terrifying auras comparable to Mahayana cultivators.

Countless beasts roared, their arms swinging violently, fiercely smashing against the City Protection Array before them.

Crack crack crack!!!

Ripples spread out from the City Protection Array. It seemed that its collapse was but a matter of time.

"Isn’t this too exaggerated? So many beasts! From the looks of their attacks, within a quarter of an hour, the top-tier array before us will be brutally shattered by these beasts! By then, any cultivators in the city can only choose to escape or perish!" Zhang Xiaohao thought nervously.

Buzz!!!

Suddenly, a monstrous beast hundreds of feet tall stepped forward, leaving a massive footprint on the ground, clutching its giant iron rod, leaping from the ground, fiercely striking towards the City Protection Array with a force to destroy all.

Crack!

The City Protection Array, already on the verge of collapse, was utterly shattered under the strike of the beast’s iron rod, dissipating into a wave of aura.

"Roar!!!" Breaking through the top-tier array in one move, the terrifying beast hundreds of feet tall roared skyward, seemingly commanding the endless Barbaric Beast Army to charge into the city.

The city walls crumbled under the beast’s assault, flattened completely, as the endless Barbaric Beast Army surged inside, frantically slaughtering within.

Massive fists, full of terrifying force, smashed into attacking magic artifacts, magic tools, and more soaring through the air.

The city’s cultivators and military troops, refusing to lag behind, manipulated their magic artifacts, or deployed aggressive trump cards, charging towards the invading Barbaric Beast Army.

In an instant, the Barbaric Beast Army and cultivator army were fiercely clashing.

Under the relentless assault of the endless Barbaric Beast Army, the surrounding cultivators were overwhelmed, brutally crushed and killed, the battle turning distinctly one-sided.

As time dragged on, the cultivators and military troops retreated fearfully, more and more buildings, palaces, and more were savagely destroyed by the Barbaric Beast Army.

Only Zhang Xiaohao seemed leisurely, sitting on the shoulder of the Integrating Beast, casually swallowing Chaos Beads dropped from the bodies of fallen beasts.

Meanwhile, broken magic artifacts and magic tools scattered on the ground were all collected, thrown into the Heaven and Earth Furnace.

"Die, beast!!!" At this moment, a cultivator at the Integration Middle Stage descended from the sky, controlling a hook-shaped Lifebound Magical Treasure, launching thick black rays of light, striking towards Zhang Xiaohao.

Because of Zhang Xiaohao’s flashy appearance - sitting on a beast was one thing, but also having Three Heads and Six Arms - made outsiders mistake him as a high-ranking figure among the beasts.

"Hmph! I haven’t gone looking for trouble with you, yet you dare seek trouble with me? Big guy, do it!" Zhang Xiaohao patted the massive beast beneath him.

Roar!

The Integrating Beast let out a low roar, waving two terrifying palms, fiercely striking at the opponent’s head.

As their attacks were about to fiercely collide, Zhang Xiaohao’s indifferent voice rang out.

"Time and space stand still!"

With Zhang Xiaohao’s words, the attacking cultivator was forcibly immobilized within a fraction of a second, before he could react, the beast’s terrifying fists already smashed forward viciously.

Clang!

The first punch sent the opponent’s Lifebound Magical Treasure flying, the second fell, with terrifying force, onto the opponent’s head, shattering his protective aura, brutally exploding his head, blood raining down from the sky.

A miniature Nascent Soul flickered, about to deploy the Nascent Soul Escape Technique to flee, when suddenly a powerful suction drew in, swallowing his entire Nascent Soul.

After mixing briefly, Zhang Xiaohao swallowed the Nascent Soul whole.

"Not bad taste! No wonder that fellow Hei Wuchang enjoys consuming Nascent Souls so much." Zhang Xiaohao remarked approvingly.

Watching the opponent’s dropped storage pouch and magic artifact, Zhang Xiaohao grabbed with his right hand, collecting them directly, tossing them into the Heaven and Earth Furnace.
