Dou Chang and Zhang Yu flew southwest on a ray of light. After traveling for an entire night, a long and narrow bay appeared in their field of vision. From high up in the air, it seemed as if some bird had bitten off a gap at the edge of the land.
Swallow Beak Bay.
The most prosperous bay in the southwest of the protectorate.
One could see that on the side closer to the land, a city glittering with lights stood on the high ground by the shore. Its harbor was set up in a crevice in a valley that curved inward from the high ground. Ships of all sizes were anchored within.
Without a doubt, this was Chaoming City.
This city had been first established by the Tianxia people. Their initial goal had been to transport the rich natural resources of the south to the north. But after the Battle of the Honghe Pass, the population of the Tianxia people had been greatly reduced. They could only delegate their authority to the various native tribes of the time.
After decades of trade between the north and the south, these tribes had grasped vast amounts of wealth. They had absorbed the customs and laws of the Tianxia people, as well as advanced weapons and technology, gradually growing stronger. At the same time, they had also begun to harbor thoughts that they should not have.
Although they still called themselves tribes, and the chief of the tribe was still the old title of chief, in reality, their internal organization and structure was completely different from that of ordinary natives.
They had their own administrative officials, their own military equipment, and their own trading ships. They could now be considered the local vassal towns of the protectorate.
After Zhang Yu and Dou Chang saw the city, in order to avoid exposing themselves too early, they did not continue to approach it. Instead, they landed on a high slope in the distance and swallowed pills before meditating to adjust their breathing.
After recovering, Dou Chang said, "Junior Brother Zhang, in the Army of God, Marquis Chi Shou has exceptionally good eyesight. He's said to be able to see a thousand li. This is indeed a bit exaggerated, and it's impossible to do so under the influence of the Turbid Tide. But this person is undoubtedly very sensitive to abnormal changes in the outside world. If he's here, then we have to be careful."
Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, then no matter how careful we are, it'll be hard to avoid being discovered. Then we might as well move a little faster. That way, even if he notices, he won't be able to stop us in time."
Dou Chang expressed his agreement. Their target was relatively fixed. Chi Shou's fighting style was the exact opposite of his. He did his best to avoid direct contact with others, so their chances of success were still very high.
After their discussion, they once more took to the air..........................
Zhang Yu glanced down. Looking down from this height, Chaoming City was only about the size of a palm. As a cultivator, his eyesight was very good. Even at night, he could see everything below clearly.
This place was far beyond the sensing range of the Heart Lake, so in order to be safe, he used the Seal of Identification to carefully observe the situation in the city.
Dou Chang didn't say anything. He was good at fighting head-on, but he didn't have the ability to observe the enemy. At this moment, he was looking at Zhang Yu calmly sizing up the people below, and he was extremely envious.
The six seals were good. This meant that as long as the latter had enough Divine Energy, he could develop in any direction and not have any shortcomings to a certain extent.
Because he had made sufficient preparations, Zhang Yu found the two altars very quickly. He could see that many people were surrounding them, offering all kinds of offerings to the altars. There were also many people holding all kinds of gold and silver utensils, chanting while sprinkling all kinds of spices and petals.
Without a doubt, the ritual to awaken EsGod had already begun. However, there were not many offerings on the altars, which meant that the ritual had only just begun.
They had come at the right time.
He turned to Dou Chang and said, "Senior Brother Dou, that's indeed where the main altar is. As long as we destroy those two places, the ritual will be interrupted, and EsGod will not be awakened."
Dou Chang clenched his fists. "Then what are we waiting for? Let's begin!"
Zhang Yu nodded and looked down. "Then, I'll deal with the east altar. Senior Brother Dou, you'll deal with the west one."
Dou Chang nodded. "Let's do it!"
After he finished speaking, he took a deep breath, and numerous seals started to circulate around his body. Firm, Heavy Mountain, Heavy Mountain, Unbreakable, Surge, Pure Gold … More than 10 seals were formed in succession, and all of them had the effect of strengthening the body and forcefully attacking.
Zhang Yu could tell that Dou Chang's method of attack was to use his own body to collide with the altar. He also had his own methods.
With a thought, the Xia Sword flew out of its sheath and floated beside him. He closed his eyes and communicated with the sword in his mind. After a short while, waves of jade light bloomed from the sword.
After Dou Chang made some preparations, the light that gushed out of his body was like flowing flames. He glanced at Zhang Yu, who nodded at him. Dou Chang no longer hesitated and shouted, "Let's go!
He then shouted, "Do it!"
The light on the two of them expanded again. It first rose for a distance, then fell down together when the light expanded to the most intense!
Whoosh!
Two rainbows spiraled down from the sky. With a whistling sound, they shot toward the ground!
The Light of Heart could eliminate all movements and disturbances. This way, there wouldn't be any commotion. However, they wanted to charge into Chaoming City in an absolutely shocking manner and leave a deep impression on everyone in the city.
Dou Chang's head was facing downwards. As he descended, he kept adjusting himself so that he wouldn't deviate too far from Chaoming City. When he was halfway down, he saw his target. With a boom, he sped up a little.
Zhang Yu, on the other hand, pointed his finger forward and led the sword first. A layer of green light circulated around his body. As his body charged forward, it continuously tore through the surrounding atmosphere and dragged out a flowing rainbow that traversed the sky.
In the stone castle near the square of Chaoming City, Chi Shou crossed his arms and lay on a hammock between the stone pillars in the hall. This was his habit. It allowed him to observe his surroundings at all times.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside. With his efforts, the chiefs of the tribes finally came to an agreement. They were willing to offer sacrifices to awaken the true bodies of the gods.
Originally, this kind of preparation was already enough, because the people of the Profound Palace had just set off from the port yesterday, so it would take at least three or four days for them to reach here. At that time, these deities should have already awakened.
However, he still felt uneasy. He felt that he had overlooked something. However, he couldn't figure out what the problem was. This made him very frustrated.
However, at this moment, his ears twitched as if he had sensed something. He stretched out his hand and pressed down, and his entire body rushed out. When he passed through the wall, it was as if he didn't have any substance, and he directly passed through it. After rushing out for several tens of feet, his body fell, and he landed on the hot and noisy square.
A priest came up to him and tried to spray him with holy water, but he pushed him away without any hesitation. Ignoring the priest's curses, he focused his mind and tried to identify the source of the water. After a while, he suddenly looked up into the sky. There seemed to be two flashing balls of light, like meteors falling from the sky. After a short moment of staring, his pupils constricted!
Oh no!
He stomped his feet heavily, and his body suddenly floated in the air. Then, he suddenly flashed and left the square at an extremely fast speed. He ran even further away without stopping.
Wherever he passed, no matter if it was a thick wall or a sturdy pillar, he would pass right through it. Nothing could stop him in the slightest.
Just three or four breaths after he left, two beams of light suddenly fell to the ground and seemed to disappear into it.
The world was silent at first.
Then …
Boom! Boom!
Two muffled explosions sounded almost at the same time. At the same time, it was accompanied by a violent earthquake. The shock caused all the glazed products in the city to shatter. This strong movement immediately caused chaos in the city and the upper echelons of many tribes to panic.
After the violent aftermath subsided, it could be seen that the original east and west squares in the city had disappeared. Instead, they were replaced by two huge pits.
The buildings around the square, whether it was the ancient temple, the modified stone castle, or the gorgeous affairs hall, were all razed to the ground. The gravel and bricks at the edge showed a wave shape that spread outwards.
The priests and believers who were holding the sacrificial ceremony here were all dead in the first impact. Further away, there was a circle of onlookers who were stunned and killed by the violent impact.
In the center of this ruin, two figures flashing with light slowly floated out of the pit. They went all the way to the sky and looked down at the entire city.
