Rumbling!
The ten-person catapults, like ten thousand bolts of divine thunder, roared and shot out terrifying streams of light. Luminous orbs, enhanced by Yuan Tiangang's modifications and shimmering with divine radiance, soared into the sky. Each legion carried a unique orb.
Golden orbs streaked through the void, like streaks of dragon energy surging across the firmament. Were it not for the divine power they radiated, they could have been mistaken for true dragon qi.
"Roar!!"
Amidst the roaring, earth-shattering roars of ten thousand beasts echoed over Hengtian Palace. The orbs shone with brilliant divine light, and majestic golden lions, surveying all directions, appeared in the highest heavens.
Hundreds of thousands of orbs landed directly on Hengtian Palace's protective formation!
"Counterattack!" Su Dan Novel Network
"Counterattack!"
At this moment, countless generals in Hengtian Palace roared. Ballistae aimed furiously at the golden lion legion!
Boom, boom!
As the orbs struck the protective formation, the golden lions roared within the golden radiance. The immense impact directly unleashed fifteen small bombardment formations. The contained, terrifying divine beast energy erupted completely, filling the air with divine light!
Ten thousand feet of fiery clouds erupted. The entire protective formation collapsed at this moment, accompanied by the mournful cries of dragons. Countless city walls shook violently. In an instant, myriad towers and city walls were shattered by this terrifying bombardment!
Deprived of the protection of the city formation, the orbs landed directly within Hengtian Palace, instantly engulfing countless soldiers and buildings. Dozens of seals were broken, and the second wave of bombardment exploded!
Suddenly, golden divine radiance, like a thick golden blanket, swallowed half of Hengtian Palace. Countless houses ignited, and layers of fire waves swept across the land!
"Shoot!"
Xie Lüguang ordered again. Swish, swish, swish! Hundreds of thousands of arrows shot out. Suddenly, a large area of Hengtian Palace turned dark. The terrifying shadow streaked past and plunged into the sea of fire. Each arrow carried the full force of a soldier's attack, extinguishing vast swathes of the fiery expanse!
Few living beings remained in Hengtian Palace; most had fled. Those who remained were all loyal to the Hengtian lineage. The surging fire waves and the bursting golden divine radiance madly consumed the lives of the soldiers!
"Counterattack!"
Emperor Hengtian remained expressionless. Even facing the terrifying assault of the golden lion legion, he spoke calmly and continuously: "Counterattack! Counterattack!"
Rumbling!
Arrows shot out from the sea of fire, covering the sky with boundless black light. While their power was slightly less than that of the golden lion legion's arrows, they could still counterattack under the relentless bombardment. This demonstrated the extraordinary leadership skills of Emperor Hengtian!
"Ah!!"
"Quick! Cut off my right arm! This damned golden fire won't extinguish! Ah! Damn it!!!"
A soldier was struck in the right wrist by a streak of golden light. His right hand was pulverized, and horrifyingly, golden divine fire ignited at the wound, impossible to extinguish. Within moments, it consumed his right arm, turning it to ash!
"Hold on!"
*Pfft!*
A saber strike came, directly severing a large chunk of flesh from his shoulder, preventing the golden divine fire from consuming further.
At this moment, the soldiers were utterly shocked. Those like him were fortunate enough to survive, at least saving their lives. Many more had no chance to resist, their lives directly taken by that terrifying and bizarre flame.
"Counterattack quickly! I will mobilize the nation's destiny to empower your arrows! Counterattack, counterattack!!"
Emperor Hengtian continued to speak coldly. At this moment, he was incredibly calm, having accepted the might of the Great Han Divine Dynasty, and more importantly, accepting reality. The power of the Hengtian Immortal Dynasty was a thing of the past.
Boom, boom, boom...!
"Roar!!"
Within the city, boundless national destiny surged forth. Empowered by the national destiny, those cold crossbow bolts transformed into golden hues, as if forged from dragon bones. Even the shafts of the arrows were covered in tiny barbs. At the arrowhead, a golden dragon coiled, and with a roar, the arrowhead morphed into dragon fangs. The coverage of the national destiny made each crossbow bolt seem like a mortal ascending to immortality!
A sharp aura tore through the firmament and broke through space. Unmatched sharpness directly pierced the golden lion legion. Instantly, golden lions wailed. Countless golden lion soldiers were engulfed by the crossbow bolts, their flesh and blood flying everywhere!
Rumbling!
Under the first wave of crossbow bolt attacks, the second and third waves followed in succession. Generals such as Gao Changgong, Dugu Xin, Hua Mulan, and Fei Yingdong stepped forward, each wielding their weapons, radiating immense divine light. The blood essence of countless soldiers converged upon them, and four thousand-foot-tall golden lions materialized in the sky, unleashing a golden beam of light that intercepted the secret realm's crossbow bolts, shattering them with a roar!
"Damn it! Catapults, bombard them!!"
Seeing this, approximately tens of thousands of soldiers had died under the crossbow bolts empowered by the national destiny. Xie Lüguang, filled with rage, roared his command.
"Kill!!"
Boom, boom, boom...!
The catapults roared!
The ten soldiers frantically channeled their divine power, activating the golden orbs. In almost an instant, the soldiers operating the catapults rotated three times. Golden orbs streaked across the sky, and countless golden lion divine beasts roared within the orbs, crashing into the city already being consumed by the sea of fire!
Er Zhu Rong's eyes locked onto the sea of fire, constantly searching for Emperor Hengtian's presence. Beside him, Wei Xiaokuan maintained overall control, continuously issuing attack orders to Xie Lüguang. Within the city, golden orbs exploded, dozens of seals shattered, and terrifying energy devoured soldiers wherever they were. Blood rained down everywhere, and flesh and blood splattered!
Whoosh!
The great fire roared. The collision of flames and blood instantly vaporized wisps of red blood mist. The sky above Hengtian Palace turned dark red, as if it had rained blood. Especially when juxtaposed with the ground fire, it further accentuated the brutality of the scene. Arrows still shot out from within the flames, and both sides fought fiercely. The clan disciples, who had been frightened earlier, now had their faces splashed with hot blood, their fear forgotten as they roared and operated their ballistae.
Boom!
Emperor Hengtian shattered three golden orbs with a single sword strike. The violent impact made his right arm go numb: "Damn it!"
The moment he made a move, he was locked onto by Er Zhu Rong. Two red, crescent-shaped divine lights directly pierced into the sea of fire!
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Emperor Hengtian felt a piercing pain in his chest, as if someone were constantly drilling into it with a needle!
