Shi Tianhao's footsteps became extremely heavy, as if every step forward became extremely difficult.
As he moved forward, the twelve giant silhouettes above his head also moved forward, following Shi Tianhao towards West-Hill City.
A huge circle of light, with the twelve giant silhouettes as the center, kept expanding in all directions. Hundreds of millions of runes and talismans also started to spread between heaven and earth.
With Shi Tianhao and the giant silhouettes as the center, the concept of power that suppressed the heavens and the earth expanded in all directions.
This concept of power collided with the terrifying destructive power that was destroying West-Hill City, instantly creating a huge impact.
Shi Tianhao's footsteps suddenly became even slower.
At this moment, the pressure on West-Hill City was slightly relieved. Shi Zongtang and the others could barely split some of their attention to observe the sudden changes in the surroundings.
When the cultivators of Great Qin found out that the reinforcement was only Shi Tianhao, they couldn't help but be extremely shocked.
Although they were the ones who invited Shi Tianhao to take charge, and although they knew that Shi Tianhao's strength couldn't be measured by ordinary Primordial Spirit cultivators, they still invited Shi Tianhao out of etiquette and symbolic meaning.
After all, although Shi Tianhao displayed extremely powerful strength, facing the current crisis, it was still beyond his power.
If he really came to West-Hill City, he would just be buried together with West-Hill City.
Previously, when they contacted Xuanmen Tianzong, the Great Qin Dynasty naturally hoped that Zhu Yi could bring the Golden Bridge of Paramita to help. Only with the existence of the creation treasure, the Golden Bridge of Paramita, could it help the people of Great Qin Dynasty to survive this catastrophe and avoid destruction.
However, Zhu Yi and Tian Gang Sword Venerable were guarding the Southern Wasteland together, confronting Shen Long Wang. Everyone in the Great Qin Dynasty was well aware of this situation. They knew that Zhu Yi indeed couldn't split himself, that was why they had given up all hope.
But now that Shi Tianhao resolutely came, the new Emperor Shi Zongtang and the experts of Great Qin were very grateful, but also very surprised.
Everyone else used their energy to support the formation, and only Shi Zongtang, who had the highest cultivation, could spare some energy to pay attention to Shi Tianhao.
After carefully analyzing, Shi Zongtang couldn't help but be even more surprised.
In the depths of his memory, a vague and indistinct legend gradually surfaced in Shi Zongtang's mind.
In the ancient era, the Gate of Heaven rose, and the master of Gate of Heaven, Heaven Emperor Kong, was taken care of by his neighbors, and grew up eating food.
After he became an adult and learned Dao, he became the pride of his birthplace, and was revered by the people of Tianyou City.
Celestial Emperor Kong had always been sentimental about it. Later on, there was a saying that when a man attained the Dao, his chickens and dogs would ascend to the heavens. After attaining the Dao, he used a great divine ability to uproot his hometown, Celestial You City, into the Nine Heavens. He guided the spirit spring, laid out the spirit fields, and raised the people above the Nine Heavens.
Under Celestial Emperor Kong's continuous magic power, the huge city stayed in the sky for a long time, and history called it the City of the Sky.
The Sky City became Celestial Emperor Kong's initial foundation. After that, Celestial Emperor Kong found a blessed land and established his mountain gate. The Sky City then hung above the mountain gate and was nourished by the mountain gate's spirit energy. There was no longer a need for Celestial Emperor Kong to lift it up. The Sky City was still a city that didn't fall. Under Celestial Emperor Kong's method, it was hidden in the void. When the commoners in the city wanted to leave the city and return to the divine continent, they could also use the formation to travel. It was very convenient.
With the magical powers of Heavenly Emperor Kong and the many experts of the Heavenly gate, as well as the spiritual energy of the great formation of the Heavenly gate, as well as the refinement of a large number of precious resources, the Sky City gradually changed from a grand city of mortals to an existence similar to the Heavenly Palace of the Nine Heavens. Most of the families of the disciples of the Heavenly Gate also moved there.
Over the years, the City in the Sky had gradually formed a connection with the Heavenly Gate's mountain-guarding formation, the Azure Sky All Heavens Formation. They could be separated or combined. Together, they formed one of the most powerful fortresses in the history of the Divine Land.
In fact, even though it wasn't as free as it was in Xuanmen Tianzong's Yujing Mountain, under certain conditions, it could still move the void at a fixed point.
However, in the war between the two worlds, when the Ancient Era entered the Medieval Era, with the complete destruction of the Heavenly Gate, the City in the Sky and the Azure Sky All Heavens Formation had also fallen.
However, at this moment, when Shi Zongtang looked at the twelve giant silhouettes above Shi Tianhao's head, he couldn't help but be stunned. "Those are … the twelve Heavenly Generals of the Ancient Heavenly Gate's Azure Sky All Heavens Formation?"
The Ancient Heavenly Gate believed that all techniques belonged to the same origin, and they were inclusive. They collected and studied a large amount of knowledge, analyzed and referenced the various principles and techniques that existed in the entire Tianyuan Great World. Regardless of whether it was the Human Race or the Demon Race, they would seriously study and comprehend everything. Then, they would combine it with their own orthodoxy to bring forth new ideas from the old and constantly improve and compile them.
It was rumored that Heavenly Emperor Kong had once obtained the incomplete map of the Demon Race's top formation, the Twelve Sacred Heavens Formation. Using it as a foundation, he improved it into a formation that could be activated by the Human Race. In the end, he formed his own strongest formation, the Azure Sky All Heavens Formation.
This formation refined the spiritual bodies of the twelve Heavenly Generals, gathered the Daos of the Heavens, and turned it into a formation that suppressed the Heaven and Earth.
Later on, the Azure Sky All Heavens Formation linked with the City in the Sky, and when the formation and the Celestial City became one, the Heavenly Gate powerhouses could use it to switch between the City and the spiritual bodies of the twelve Heavenly Generals.
Because of the Great Zhou Empire and the Eastern Heavenly Gate, the Great Qin Empire also did their best to understand the Ancient Heavenly Gate. This information was all recorded in ancient books. Although it was limited, at this moment, looking at the twelve giant silhouettes above Shi Tianhao's head and sensing the Daos and concepts within them, Shi Zongtang could still see some clues.
In particular, Shi Zongtang could sense that the spiritual bodies of the twelve Heavenly Generals above Shi Tianhao's head weren't complete. They revealed a feeling of weakness and dilapidation, as if they had suffered heavy injuries and appeared broken.
"It wasn't a formation that was reconstructed from the Azure Sky All Heavens Formation. Is this the original formation from the Ancient Heavenly Gate back then?" Shi Zongtang thought to himself, "Although it was destroyed by Jihuang Shenyuan back then, did it luckily leave behind a remnant? Rumor has it that during the battle back then, the boundaries between the Desolate Ancient Star Ocean and the Great Thousand World underwent a drastic change. The Star Ocean Passageway also shattered into six Star Ocean Gates, and the situation was extremely chaotic … "
"If that's the case, the City in the Sky that merged with the Azure Sky All Heavens Formation back then, although it was also destroyed, did it also survive?"
Shi Zongtang thought to himself, but he saw the light silhouettes of the twelve Heavenly Generals above Shi Tianhao's head suddenly start to blur, as if they were going to disappear at any time.
Shi Tianhao frowned and activated his mind and Dharmic powers, and the light silhouettes above his head became clear again.
However, this scene immediately made Shi Zongtang's heart, which had been gradually calming down, immediately tensed up again.
Clearly, Shi Tianhao couldn't freely control the power of the twelve Heavenly Generals above his head, and he was in an unstable state.
This state was undoubtedly very dangerous. He might not be able to save West-Hill City at any time, and he might even lose his life.
However, Shi Tianhao didn't retreat. He strode forward with his head held high, moving forward in the world that seemed like it would shatter at any time. The twelve Heavenly Generals above his head flickered in and out of existence.
When the giant light silhouettes appeared, the pressure on West-Hill City eased, and Shi Tianhao himself also felt much more relaxed.
However, when the light silhouettes gradually disappeared, not only did the pressure on West-Hill City increase, but Shi Tianhao also seemed to be in the middle of a storm. Even with his powerful body that had been tempered hundreds and thousands of times, he still felt immense pressure, as if he was about to be torn apart.
Following the Qi of the Dragon Vein, the powerful force that was pulled back by the Qi of the Dragon Vein was fierce and violent, but it actually didn't last for long.
However, this short period of time was incomparably long for the people of the Great Qin Dynasty and Shi Tianhao. Every moment, every moment, felt like thousands of years.
The twelve Heavenly Generals above Shi Tianhao's head were not stable, and also constantly fluctuated, appearing and disappearing.
The moment each of the twelve Heavenly Generals' spirit bodies disappeared, it was as if Shi Tianhao had suffered a heavy blow.
His gaze dimmed slightly, and it was clear that the damage to his Principal Spirit was worsening. Blood even gradually seeped out of the corner of his mouth.
In the Great Qin Dynasty's imperial palace, the Principal Spirits of the cultivators with slightly weaker cultivations were gradually collapsing under the repeated attacks. Some Void Return Realm experts had already manifested their Void Return Dharma Bodies, but at that moment, their Void Return Dharma Bodies were like fragile porcelain, gradually shattering.
In reality, Shi Zongtang, who was at the Dao Integration Realm, was suffering the greatest pressure from the Great Qin Dynasty's imperial palace. At that moment, his Principal Spirit was almost losing its human form.
He sighed and wanted to tell Shi Tianhao to retreat, but he couldn't even send a voice transmission using his Dharmic power, nor could he use his Spiritual Sense to investigate.
The entire West-Hill City started to collapse, and the buildings and roads in the city were almost completely destroyed. Even the tall and majestic city walls that were like continuous mountains started to gradually shatter. Huge cracks kept spreading on the city walls like ferocious dragons.
Shi Tianhao felt as if there was a heavy burden on his body, causing all the bones, blood vessels, and acupoints in his body to wail.
Now, he could be said to have experienced hundreds of battles. He had fought bloody battles with his enemies, and he had even experienced many serious injuries.
However, it was rare for him to face an opponent who was much stronger than him like he did today.
However, Shi Tianhao was not afraid at all. Instead, he revealed a serious expression, "There was some skill before, but it was like a flash of lightning, and it was difficult to capture that inspiration."
"The spiritual bodies of the 12 Divine Generals and the real Sky City seem to have reached a wonderful balance. If I want to control it freely, I need to balance the strength of my body, qi and blood with the strength of my primordial spirit. It doesn't have to be exactly the same, but I need to comprehend the truth and changes."
"There are thousands of Great Daos in the world, and they are indeed wonderful beyond words. The mysteries of the transformation between the spiritual bodies of the twelve Divine Generals and the Sky City are similar to the principles that I have been trying to figure out these days."
Although it was not the end of the world, a faint smile appeared on Shi Tianhao's face. As he walked, his figure also started to change.
Sometimes, it was his physical body, and the power of his blood surged majestically. Sometimes, it turned into the appearance of the Primordial Taichi Diagram, appearing in the void, covering the sky and earth, and Slowly rotating.
