"Buzz!"
In a flash of white light, a shallow scar flitted through the air, lingering in the air for a long time. Meanwhile, Wang Chong's sword image had already cut through Dayan Mangpoje's Stellar Energy barrier. The invisible and formless Stellar Energy barrier had been cut in two like a watermelon, causing Dayan Mangpoje's entire body to tremble in fear.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"
Dayan Mangpoje clenched his teeth, his eyelids twitching. The Great Snow Mountain Temple was said to have a thousand-year legacy, the source of all martial arts on the plateau, and its ancient legacy was said to be on par with the entire Central Plains. But even someone like Dayan Mangpoje, who had ascended the Holy Mountain, entered the Holy Temple, and met with his master, had never seen anyone use so many powerful martial arts.
Wang Chong was clearly a major realm lower than him, but he just happened to have all sorts of strange and wondrous arts. An evil art that could absorb energy was astonishing enough, and now he had this inconceivably sharp Sword Qi.
Even in the Holy Temple, Dayan Mangpoje had rarely seen anyone learn so many powerful martial arts at once.
"Squad Three, Squad Four, Squad Seven, Squad Twelve … Death's Scythe Formation! Dayan Mangpoje, heh, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. I'll kill you first, and then I'll kill your White Braves! I'd like to see just what Ouzan will use to fight against me! "
Wang Chong's eyes were bright and sharp, as sharp as a sword in the darkness. His resounding voice was like a peal of thunder that resounded over the city. The art of war had a saying that soldiers were valued for quality, not quantity. The environment of Qixi was complex, and Dayan Mangpoje's decision to use several thousand White Braves to attack the city was the correct one.
In terms of the art of war alone, Dayan Mangpoje had already surpassed many famous generals of the Ouzan and even the Tang dynasty. Even as an opponent, Wang Chong could not help but admire him.
Unfortunately, there was always someone better out there. Dayan Mangpoje had met himself.
As long as he got rid of Dayan Mangpoje and started a street fight in the city, no matter how famous the White Lion was, to Wang Chong, without his warhorse, he was nothing more than an ear.
Wang Chong could even take the initiative to open the city after killing Dayan Mangpoje and kill everyone before dawn.
Moreover, with Dayan Mangpoje's death, Qixi would have one less major threat.
"Yes, Marquis!"
Steel-blooded voices came from all around, and in a few short moments, one elite soldier after another who had fought with Wang Chong in the war of the southwest had gathered together and fused together.
Once the war of the southwest had concluded, Wang Chong had begun to popularize the Death's Scythe battle formation, and now it was finally beginning to show its power.
"Everyone, go and help Marquis!"
"The enemy this time is extremely powerful. Everyone, be careful!"
"Understood!"
… …
With these final words, the combat squads howled forward. Stellar Energy roiled as all sorts of supreme martial arts greeted Dayan Mangpoje. The benefits of being born into a great clan were immediately apparent.
"Python Dragon Roar!"
"Qi Spear Art!"
"Seven Destruction Slashes!"
… …
Combat squads of seven to ten people each attacked Dayan Mangpoje from every direction. All sorts of martial arts attacked Dayan Mangpoje's barrier.
"Third squad, southwest, target Mingmen point!"
"Fourth squad, southeast, target Clavicle point!"
"Seventh squad, fall back!"
… …
Wang Chong had barely finished speaking when, boom! Seventh squad dodged one destructive black dragon Stellar Energy after another. If not for Wang Chong's timely order, Seventh Squad would have been heavily injured.
"Continue! Twelfth squad, take over Seventh Squad's position! "
As clear orders were issued, Wang Chong's outstanding ability to command the battlefield was on full display. In Wang Chong's hands, what should have been a simple one-on-one duel between martial artists had become a battle of many against one, a battle that was akin to a war.
On one side of the battlefield was Wang Chong and his nearly one hundred elites, while on the other was the infamous Brigadier General of Ouzan, Dayan Mangpoje. Although Dayan Mangpoje had also brought two or three thousand White Braves with him, the presence of the steel citadel made it impossible for them to help.
"Twenty-first, twenty-second, and twenty-third squads, get ready … and join the fray!"
Wang Chong was still having more elites join the battle. The top of the walls was narrow, but Wang Chong was able to exploit the terrain to attack from different angles.
Bangbangbang! One combat team after another responded to Wang Chong's call and entered the fray. At this time, the only squad that had not been summoned was the ballista squad.
Twangtwangtwang!
Booms rang out. Wang Chong had only prepared four ballistae, but he had countless ballista bolts. Thick ballista bolts were strewn across the ground, seemingly endless.
Although he had lost Cheng Sanyuan and Su Shixuan, the White Braves were able to rely on their proficiency and the terrifying power of the ballistae to limit the White Braves' ability to scale the walls.
The two-thousand-some White Braves were still unable to scale the walls, so they naturally couldn't open the gates. These elite White Braves of the Ouzan Plateau naturally had no idea that the commander-in-chief of this operation, Dayan Mangpoje was almost driven mad by Wang Chong.
"Damn thing!"
"Die for me!"
… …
The corner of Dayan Mangpoje's eyes twitched as he grew more and more irritated. Boom! He threw his spear, not at Wang Chong, but at the 'Death's Sickle' squad of the Tang Dynasty.
The nature of this battle was changing. Dayan Mangpoje had never imagined that these soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, whom he had looked down on at the start, would cause him to feel so irritated.
In just a few short moments, Wang Chong had summoned twenty-some squads, nearly one hundred and eighty soldiers. They covered an area of several hundred zhang and were attacking him from every direction.
This battle had become one against one hundred, and he was simultaneously facing the attacks of Wang Chong and nearly two hundred soldiers.
In normal circumstances, this sort of situation would have never occurred. If someone else had used this method to deal with him and wear down his energy, they would have been foolish beyond belief and seeking death.
But Wang Chong had made this possible.
"Wang Chong, do you really think I can't deal with you? Great Snow Seals the World, Demon Dragon Destroys the World! "
A vicious light flashed in Dayan Mangpoje's eyes. Even he was beginning to find it somewhat unbearable to expend so much energy. Boom! A moment later, black energy exploded as Dayan Mangpoje shot into the sky like a black meteor.
"Boom!"
As the black meteor reached its highest point, the one hundred thousand-some craftsmen and guards in the City of Steel suddenly saw a massive snowy mountain covered in white armor.
Unlike any of the previous times, the snowy mountain was even more solid, more concrete, and even larger. From a distance, it was more than one hundred zhang tall, enough to stun anyone who saw it.
"Roooar!"
The gigantic dragon roared. Right below the gigantic snow mountain, black clouds billowed, and a gigantic, malevolent-looking demonic dragon appeared. It was ferocious, and its blood-red eyes were filled with an aura that could destroy everything in the world.
"In the face of absolute power, all skills are just insignificant tricks. Let me show you what true power is!"
Dayan Mangpoje's voice echoed over the City of Steel like a god.
At this moment, the world fell silent. Everyone felt a fear that came from the depths of their souls as they looked at the massive demon dragon in the sky.
'Great Snow Seals the World, Demon Dragon Destroys the World' — this was the most powerful and profound move of the Great Snow Mountain Demon Dragon Art.
Dayan Mangpoje had once used this move to destroy Little Balur, completely destroying its city and forcing this small country in the Western Regions behind Ouzan to surrender and become a vassal state of Ouzan.
The power of this move was enough to destroy all targets on the city walls, including Wang Chong.
"Hmph!"
Wang Chong sneered, his long hair blowing in the wind as he raised his head to the sky, his expression devoid of fear.
"Dayan Mangpoje, your thinking is too simple. So what if it's the Great Snow Mountain? So what if it's a demon dragon? Let me show you what a true martial art of the Central Plains is! "
"Yin and Yang Mutual Transformation, Universe Reversal, Great Yang Art!"
With a howl, Wang Chong suddenly gathered all the energy in his body, along with the energy of the thirty-two officers, and soared into the sky like a sparrow hawk. Bzzz! The illusory images of the sun and moon on Wang Chong's left and right shoulders suddenly began to solidify, transforming into two surging streams of energy, one golden and one red. As they swirled in the air, they formed a Yin and Yang forcefield with a radius of more than one hundred feet and the shape of a sun.
The Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art was not a technique purely used for combat. Its greater use was to absorb the energy of an opponent, rapidly increasing the strength of a cultivator. Thus, combat was not its primary task.
But this did not mean that its combat ability was weak. On the contrary, the reason why the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art was ranked number one on the evil path, and why all martial artists paled at the mere mention of it, was precisely because of its terrifying combat ability.
As the number one martial art of the evil path for thousands of years, the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art had three supreme techniques for combat.
"Yin and Yang Mutual Transformation, Universe Reversal, Great Yang Art!" was one of them!
Each of the three techniques of the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art had extremely stringent requirements to use. For example, the Great Yang Art was specially used to defeat the strong, to deal with opponents like Dayan Mangpoje who were stronger than him.
But this technique could only be used at an extremely high level. If Wang Chong had not borrowed the power of the Death God's Scythe formation to increase his strength and also absorbed a portion of Dayan Mangpoje's Stellar Energy, he would not have been able to use this technique.
In addition, if he wanted to use this technique, he would have to expend a large amount of Blood Qi and Psychic Energy.
If he was unable to finish off his opponent in one move, then his strength would plummet, and he would very likely be hunted down by his opponent. This was also the reason why Wang Chong did not casually use this technique.
Boom!
In the blink of an eye, Wang Chong's golden-red Stellar Energy collided with Dayan Mangpoje in the air. There was an earth-shaking explosion, and it seemed like space itself was being torn apart. Everyone's ears were ringing from the shockwaves, and they saw stars.
"Cover your ears!"
