Ji Fa was already on high alert, commanding his army to begin the siege, with all his powerful warriors joining the attack.

A massive, dark army attacked the city, their momentum deafening. Seeing this, Ji Fa was filled with pride and confidence.

This time, we will surely capture Sishui Pass, overthrow the Shang Dynasty, and ascend the throne. This battle will begin!

Pre-war mobilization

Ji Fa promised the soldiers great rewards, and at that moment the Western Zhou army charged into battle, fighting desperately, and their morale soared.

but,

To the elite of the Great Merchant Army, no matter how much these guys jump around, they're just here to get themselves killed!

Battles between large armies are certainly exciting, but compared to the battles between powerful individuals, they seem like child's squabbles, utterly lacking in entertainment value.

As for the battles between these powerful individuals, we'll discuss them separately.

at this time,

Above Sishui Pass,

Within the Heavenly Palace

Deng Chanyu stood in mid-air, a sword hanging at his waist, his robes fluttering, his words carrying an air of elegance.

Opposite Deng Chanyu, Tu Xingsun glared menacingly, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Deng Chanyu, today I will make you pay for all the grudges of the past!" Tu Xingsun shouted.

Upon hearing this,

Deng Chanyu said with contempt and disgust, "Perfect! It was too satisfying to kill you back then. This time, you think you can die peacefully? Not so fast! Speaking of which, you've been given a second chance at life, so why don't you try to make yourself look better? Make that face look at least somewhat human!"

oh!

I understand. It's deliberate to disgust people, so that they can't bear to look at it, and thus gain victory!

Their intentions are despicable!

After saying that,

Tu Xingsun roared in fury, "Get out!"

moment,

Tu Xingsun's figure flashed, instantly slashing towards Deng Chanyu. Crimson light erupted, each beam containing immense power.

By the way, the best app for reading aloud and listening to books right now is the .huanyuanapp app (install the latest version).

In response,

Deng Chanyu didn't take it to heart at all. With a flash, he reappeared and slapped Tu Xingsun across the face, sending him flying.

Tu Xingsun's tumbling movements through the air were truly comical, but Deng Chanyu didn't stop.

With a flash, Deng Chanyu struck again, but Tu Xingsun would not allow himself to be slaughtered.

Crimson runes suddenly appeared all over his body, serving as a defense to block Deng Chanyu's attacks.

Kacha!

A crisp sound rang out, and the densely packed runes were instantly shattered.

In that instant,

Tu Xingsun paled slightly, having no time to dodge, and was kicked in the lower back.

That dull thud sounded painful; it probably meant his kidneys had been crushed by that kick.

"That's it!?" Deng Chanyu said dismissively.

The demon fused with by Tu Xingsun was indeed rather weak; Deng Chanyu could easily crush a group of them in a matter of minutes.

"Master!"

Tu Xingsun shouted at this moment. He knew very well that he would die on his own, and that he could be arrogant because he had something to rely on. Otherwise, how could he dare to be so arrogant?

As the sound faded,

Space rippled, and the figure of Ju Liusun appeared, surrounded by streaks of red light. His body was imposing, and Ju Liusun himself stood atop Ju Liusun's head like a supreme treasure.

moment,

Ju Liusun unleashed an extremely powerful force, and the combination of the two brought about a qualitative change.

The sky darkened in an instant, and crimson flowers appeared, containing eerie runes.

The crimson power, brimming with murderous intent,

"go!"

Ju Liusun raised his right arm, used his sword to direct the dance, and then shouted.

instantly,

Ten thousand blood flowers bloomed, laws flowed, and order permeated the air. Each flower was a world unto itself, and every blooming blood flower was filled with unparalleled divine power.

The fact that Ju Liusun and Tu Xingsun possessed such power truly surprised Deng Chanyu.

Seeing the myriad flowers in full bloom, Deng Chanyu placed his hand on the hilt of the sword hanging at his waist.

The myriad blood blossoms that bloomed at this moment carried a power as if the sky were collapsing. In an instant, with a chilling glint, Deng Chanyu drew his blade, and the force of the collapsing sky vanished, all laws crumbling.

With a single strike, blood splattered on either side, the blade's power undiminished, still possessing the strength to slay the heavens.

In that instant,

Space shattered inch by inch, the hurricane stirred by the blade's power, effortlessly adding three parts to its might. Within the blade's energy, laws condensed like a vast ocean, its Daoist essence boundless.

This strike already feels like it has reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship; it will inevitably transform into a trace of the Dao.

Such a strike, perhaps one day... could truly sever the river of time!

Chaoge,

Looking at that cut, looking at Deng Chanyu like that,

Lu Chuan: "..."

wipe!

Deng Chanyu is also his apprentice!?

Deng Chanyu, a person listed on the Investiture of the Gods, is the daughter of Deng Jiugong, a general of Shang Tang. She is young and beautiful, with a strong and loyal personality. She is forced to marry that scoundrel Tu Xingsun.

Becoming one's disciple would rewrite one's destiny—that would be perfect, saving one from being listed on the Investiture of the Gods and becoming some lousy Six Harmonies Star Lord!

Not only Deng Chanyu, but also the four Mo brothers who participated in the battle. These were later known as the Four Heavenly Kings, who assisted the Western religion, represented the elements of earth, water, fire and wind, protected the country and its people, and held the power to ensure favorable weather.

There are also Chen Qi and Zheng Lun, who are well-known as the "Hum and Ha Generals" in later generations!

They are all famous figures from the Investiture of the Gods!

It's ridiculous that I was hiding before; what was the point of hiding? I was already caught up in it!

...

To get back to the point,

Faced with Deng Chanyu's swift strike, Ju Liusun and Tu Xing dared not meet it head-on, and hastily dodged.

If one were to take such a blow head-on, it's not impossible, but the energy expenditure would be too great, making it completely unnecessary.

Ju Liusun and Tu Xingsun, who dodged the attack, were both rapidly changing their hand seals.

In an instant,

Crimson light flowed in countless streams, and mystical runes blanketed the sky like a vast ocean.

As each rune was absorbed into the blood blossoms that had been withered by a single strike, the blossoms bloomed once more with countless layers of red light, as if fresh blood were flowing and pouring out.
