At this very moment, Li Si, Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, and others standing before the Imperial Secretariat erupted with divine power, shattering layer upon layer of their realms!

...
At this time, within the imperial capital of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty.
Above the imperial capital, surging white killing intent reverberated through the sky. The soldiers of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty, as well as the disciples of the Tiangang Superior Sect stationed within the capital, all had their eyes faintly wide, filled with fear.
Within their pupils, a terrifying figure could be seen, with a face like red bronze, a beard like yellow glue, wearing golden armor and a golden crown, resembling a Vajra, wielding a pair of purple-gold hammers weighing one hundred and twenty catties in his palms, and riding a golden-eyed camel.
This single figure had oppressed the entire imperial capital into fear.
"Who is he?!"
"Who is he?!"
"Why do we not have any information on this person!"
"A being at the Saint King realm, this strength is enough to contend with our Tiangang Superior Sect, why are we unaware of him?"
Jian Bai, the Dharma Protector Elder of the Tiangang Superior Sect, was greatly alarmed. The two elders at the Saint realm, Bei Luan and Su Zheng, who had accompanied him, were also filled with shock.
"The Great Han Heavenly Dynasty has actually produced a being at the Saint King realm!"
"Elder Jian Bai, can the great formation we brought block the attacks of this being? If the formation shatters, then the imperial capital of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty will likely be finished!"
Bei Luan felt a chill in his heart. They had been able to resist the attacks of the White Tiger Legion and hold them off for half a month, all thanks to the great formation Jian Bai brought from the sect.
"Not good!"
Just as Bei Luan spoke again, Jian Bai's face contorted in terror. He saw the golden-eyed camel in the sky, its four hooves stamping upon the great formation. Just these reverberations shattered nearly half of the buildings within the imperial capital.
"Boom!!"
Suddenly, Zhan Deli raised the purple-gold hammer in his hand. Purple divine light streaked across the sky, obscuring the heavens and earth. With a single hammer strike, the divine light surged towards the heavens!
"Boom!"
The great formation rumbled, and cracks appeared in several places. The impact force shook many soldiers within the imperial capital to their very core!
In just a brief clash, before the formation even shattered, at least ten thousand soldiers had their bodies explode. All over the imperial capital, red mist arose to varying degrees!
"Boom!!"
Another hammer strike fell, and the great formation finally shattered. This formation, which had resisted the White Tiger Legion for half a month, crumbled within half an hour of Zhan Deli's arrival.
In an instant, the imperial capital of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty descended into chaos!
"Damn it!"
"It seems we cannot stop the Great Han White Tiger Legion's advance this time!"
"Gather the army!!"
"Gather the army!!"
Jian Bai's face changed drastically, and he roared.
He stepped forward and found himself standing above the imperial capital. As far as his gaze could reach, it was filled with soldiers clad in White Tiger armor!
"Let us attack!"
"We have delayed for so long, and we have given enough face to the people of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty!"
Cao Wei looked at the shattered formation and smiled faintly. The million-strong army behind him instantly attacked, with a thunderous roar... a mighty force, from all directions, above and below, encircling the imperial capital so tightly that not a single drop of water could escape!
There was essentially no path to survival!
"Swish swish swish~~"
Dense volleys of arrows rained down from the sky, all aimed at the imperial capital, taking lives and sounding the horn for the conquest of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty!
"Ah......."
The shattering of the great formation offered no preparation or defense for the Tiangang Superior Sect army and the Yuhua Divine Dynasty army within the imperial capital. The arrow volleys instantly pierced the city.
Puff puff puff...!
Life after life was extinguished by arrows. After one wave of arrow fire, the streets of the imperial capital were littered with corpses.
"Grand Tutor!"
"Grand Tutor!"
"What should I do, Your Majesty? What should I do? The Great Han Heavenly Dynasty's army has surrounded my imperial capital, what should I do?"
Within the imperial palace, Yu Hua Le'an trembled. The death of a million elites and two princes had severed the divine dynasty's lifeline. Now, they were merely surviving under the protection of the Tiangang Superior Sect.
"Your Majesty, we still have the three elders of the Tiangang Superior Sect, we still have a way to live, we still have a way to live!"
In the grand hall, countless officials prostrated themselves on the ground, weeping.
"Counterattack!"
"Counterattack!"
Within the imperial capital, Bei Luan and Su Zheng of the Tiangang Superior Sect, leading some generals of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty, directed the army.
Jian Bai took a step forward, intending to go to the city walls, but at this moment, a divine sense from the sky startled him and made him unable to move!
This feeling was the aura of death, something he had not encountered in millions of years.
"Zhan Deli of the Great Han Heavenly Dynasty is here, beings of the Tiangang Superior Sect, accept my hammer strike!"
With a roar, a colossal purple hammer shadow descended from the sky. In an instant, a dark, void rift stretched from the zenith of the firmament to the earth. Endless purple divine light erupted, revealing its true form in the center: a giant purple-gold hammer!
Jian Bai was horrified, his back instantly drenched in sweat. He saw behind the purple-gold hammer, the Great Han Saint King realm being who had shattered the formation earlier, with a face like red bronze and a beard like yellow glue!
A terrifying hammer intent descended, making him suddenly feel as if ten thousand divine mountains were pressing down on his head!
"Tiangang Fist!!"
Jian Bai swung his fists, and endless streams of light flowed from all over his body, merging into his fists. A gigantic fist shadow shot directly towards the descending purple-gold hammer!
