King Xi stood in the royal boat with his staff and whip behind his back as he looked at the distant Yang Capital.
The appearance of Yang Capital was very different from what he remembered. He left this place when he was about 22 years old. In the blink of an eye, more than 60 years had passed. This was the first time he had returned to this place after leaving all those years ago.
Yang Capital was very difficult to fight. Its defense could be said to be much stronger than Spirit Corner City. Moreover, this city could not be surrounded because Yang Capital had two huge spiritual arches that could continuously transport all kinds of needed items from other places.
Even if all the regions of the Elder Regiment were razed to the ground, they would not be able to cut off the transportation of items. Not to mention how much effort it would take to take down those city fortresses one by one, even if it could be done, there was still Lie King's region to provide support. Therefore, the only way was to rely on strength to attack.
Here, they would have to rely on the confrontation of the upper echelons. If they could win in such a confrontation, then the remaining defensive forces would not be worth mentioning.
To do this, they had to first wait for the upper echelons that originally belonged to the opposite side to join their camp. Secondly, they had to weaken the support for spiritual power as much as possible. For example, they had to destroy the Solar Star of Creation above Yang Capital.
In the next ten days, King Xi's army launched a fierce offensive. Every day, countless fierce crystals poured inside and outside Yang Capital, gradually peeling off the outer city regions and fortresses. At the same time, they launched a probing attack on the Solar Star of Creation.
At this time, he also received news that the Six Sects beyond the Heavens wanted to attack Yang Capital. Zhang Yu had already sent someone to inform him of this matter. Now, the news came from another channel. He found someone to analyze it and believed that the Six Great Sects deliberately leaked it to him.
The Six Great Sects did not really want to take down Yang Capital. They just wanted him to divide his forces and look after his rear. Therefore, this was an open conspiracy. If Yang Capital wanted to defend itself from the Six Great Sects' attack, it would have to rely on a certain amount of power from the upper echelons. With Yang Capital's current defensive power, it would definitely be insufficient to face the Six Great Sects' attack.
King Xi sneered and casually whipped the letter into powder. This strategy was not bad, but it misjudged the true strength of their side.
Therefore, he did not care at all. He personally oversaw the front line every day and launched fierce attacks on Yang Capital. He also fought fiercely with the defending fleet of Yang Capital. Because his army's combat power was higher, he was able to gain the upper hand every time.............................
Another five days later, a loud roar suddenly came from the front of the battle. The flying ships at the front of the line dropped down one after another, and an incomparably huge figure stood in the Yang Capital. Its entire body was shrouded in a ball of sparkling light, and it was as if it could touch the sun above with a stretch of its hand.
.........................................................

.......................
The Hao God was a divine spirit of the Hao Clan that was formed through mystical means. It was also a mystical creature that overflowed from the study of spirituality. Later on, it gradually became one of the three great forces.
The Hao God was the condensation of the beliefs of the deceased members of the Hao Clan. It also accepted the worship of its believers. As long as it stood in the Hao Clan's territory, it would possess endless power. As long as its believers were not destroyed, it would not truly disappear. Its offensive power was not strong, but the will of the defending clansmen was strong enough.
To deal with such an enemy, the only way was to use equal strength.
King Xi took out a jade talisman and called out in his mind. A huge shadow appeared above the heads of both sides. The entire sky was covered by a huge greyish-white creature. Its head and body were one, and there were rows of openings on its greyish-white flat membrane wings.
This was the "Ancient White Bat", an ancient beast of the All Spirits Institute. It had been modified by the Hao Clan's spirituality and was specially used as a war weapon to attack cities. Those openings were equivalent to cannon muzzles. In a situation where there was no backup, the spiritual power it possessed could maintain a certain level of intensity and continuously bombard the target for several months.
If it was under the full illumination of the Spiritual Sunlight, this mystical creature could last even longer. However, because the army had advanced too quickly, only three Solar Stars of Creation had reached here. When the subsequent Solar Stars of Creation caught up, it would not be a problem to last for a year and a half.
At this moment, King Xi waved his staff downwards. Spiritual light overflowed from the openings of the "Ancient White Bat", and then it turned into a powerful spiritual light that poured downwards!
At this moment, in Guangdu City, Zhang Yu seemed to have sensed something. He floated in the middle of the battle array and looked up. There seemed to be a layer of wrinkles in the atmosphere, and then the light of the Solar Stars of Creation also showed some signs of bending, as if there was an invisible force pushing them away.
Then, he saw a flawless longboat, which seemed to be made of white jade, with a thirty-six-story platform, appear there. As it appeared, a beam of spiritual light bloomed, overshadowing the light of the entire Light Capital. It was a magnificent sight to behold.
He knew that the cultivators of the six extraterritorial sects had arrived.
It was just that these people came later than he expected. It had been almost a month since he received the news and now there were clues.
He also knew that King Xi had received the news intentionally sent by the six great sects. Perhaps this person was still thinking that as long as he released the news, he would be able to disperse King Xi's army without having to personally go to war.
Zhang Yu stared at the longboat, and thoughts ran through his mind. Among the six great sects, the Everlasting Sect had the ability to calculate the secrets of heaven. Logically speaking, such a big matter like attacking Guangdu should have been calculated in advance.
He didn't know what the result of this person's calculation was. Logically speaking, if the answer of his calculation was that Guangdu could be defended, then perhaps there was no need for him to come here. But now, he was here. Either the result of the calculation was positive and gave this person confidence, or the calculation didn't have a result, or simply didn't carry out the calculation.
Inside the longboat, there were more than ten Daoist cultivators standing there. Every one of them had surging Mana like a tsunami. The three Daoist cultivators standing at the very front were obviously of higher cultivation levels, and their Mana was stronger as well.
One of them, a handsome young Daoist wearing a lake-green Daoist robe, turned around and looked at the only old Daoist sitting there. He said, "Fellow Daoist Cheng, we've already arrived at Guangdu. Have you seen the secrets of heaven?"
The old Daoist sitting there said, "Fellow Daoist Yu, I'm sorry. This old Daoist hasn't calculated it yet. The secrets of heaven involved in the battle between various high-level forces often require many years of calculation. It's difficult for me to come up with a result in just a few months."
Daoist Yu said, "I've seen the methods of your esteemed sect's Elder Fu. His calculation doesn't seem to require such a long time."
The old Daoist said, "Elder Fu has mastered the sect's highest Nine Push Technique and also wields the sect's most valuable treasure, 'Mysterious Calculation'. Now that I'm empty-handed, how can I compare to him?"
Another black-robed Daoist who was standing beside Daoist Yu said, "Daoist Brother Yu, it doesn't matter if there's no result. We're not here to fight with King Xi. If King Xi has buried enough high-level forces here that can threaten us, then there's no need to worry about Yang Capital. We can just retreat. If there's no one below, we won't encounter too many obstacles when attacking."
Daoist Yu thought about it and reluctantly agreed with this statement.
The black-robed Daoist smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Yu, what's there to worry about? We've all driven our fake bodies here. Even if they're destroyed, we can just come back later."
The other Daoists beside him nodded.
After a long battle with the Hao Clan, the various cultivation sects realized the weakness of insufficient combat power. A Daoist cultivator needed to cultivate for at least tens or hundreds of years to form combat power. Every death meant one less Daoist cultivator, so it was impossible for them to fight against the Hao Clan.
Therefore, they also learned their lesson here and created a magic tool that could carry the primordial spirit. These magic tools were enshrined by each person's magic power. Each person often had several magic tools that could be used in battle.
Now, everyone who came here was like this. Even if they failed this time, they could still come back again. This was where their confidence came from. In short, this time, they had to make King Xi feel pressured and force him to come back to help.
Daoist Yu said, "Yangdu is in a critical situation. We've already delayed for too long. There's no need to say more. I think we should start now." Everyone agreed. Therefore, they worked together to activate the longboat's formation. Within the longboat's radiance, balls of lightning-like light were produced. Then, they rolled down with a rumbling sound.
However, when these things reached mid-air, a layer of invisible barrier appeared there. Instantly, layers of light ripples exploded there. The loud sound and movement could be felt thousands of miles away.
At this moment, Zhang Yu stood there without moving. The Light Capital was indeed one of the three great capitals of the Vast Race. It had an abundant amount of defensive power. Even when faced with such an attack, the outermost layer of defense did not move at all.
Of course, this was probably just a test by the other party. They wanted to find a weak point.
It was not that the six sects had not attacked Yangdu in the past, but that was more than two hundred years ago. After so many years, the Hao Clan's skills had improved by leaps and bounds. The experience from that time was already useless.
Under the longboat's continuous attacks for two days, the outermost layer of defense of Yangdu finally showed signs of sluggishness. At this moment, a surge of divine power descended. That layer of spiritual light was instantly stopped. Then, from a pinhole-sized point, it slowly parted to the surroundings.
There was more than one layer of spiritual barrier in Yangdu. At this moment, this small hole seemed to have crossed all distances and barriers. The spiritual barrier below also parted at the same time.
Zhang Yu's eyes flashed. This was a kind of transformation of Dao. Usually, people who could reach this stage would have mastered their own Dao. However, he did not feel the existence of someone with such profound cultivation on the longboat. Instead, he felt a strange wave. He guessed that this person must have borrowed some kind of artifact.
However, at this moment, it was time for him to make a move. He guided his Qi. With a thought, he pushed a wisp of formation qi and charged toward that hole.
