At this moment,

Deng Chanyu's murderous intent was truly unprecedented. This bastard deserves to die; his mouth should be smashed first.

Subsequently,

Deng Chanyu wielded his longsword, performing a flourish, and with that single movement, the crimson runes that had been acting as the vanguard were suppressed by the force of the blade and shattered.

In response,

Ju Liusun and Tu Xingsun were clearly unconcerned. They knew very well that such methods could not cause Deng Chanyu any harm. Of course, they were still somewhat shaken that Deng Chanyu had broken through them with just a flourish of his knife.

Immediately afterwards,

The combined power of the great formation formed by Ju Liusun and Tu Xingsun became even more formidable.

at this time,

Deng Chanyu held his arm and sword horizontally, unleashing a single, powerful slash. His sword intent was unparalleled, and the sword energy whistled through the air.

Faced with such a strike, the great formation activated, and streaks of scarlet light blocked Deng Chanyu's attack. To Deng Chanyu's slight surprise, the effect of this strike on breaking the formation was less severe than she had expected.

Seeing this,

Tu Xingsun couldn't help but gloat, "Why struggle so hard? A wise man knows when to yield! You..."

Before Tu Xingsun could finish speaking, Deng Chanyu coldly shouted, "Get lost! Stop making noise!"

As he spoke,

Only then did Deng Chanyu truly make his move; a cold glint flashed on his longsword.

In an instant, the sword intent was supreme, surging to an extremely terrifying level.

On this single strike, laws flowed like a vast ocean, Daoist principles were boundless, divine power was supreme, and order stood tall.

This one strike was enough to leave only a scar.

This single strike was enough to dim the light of all other blades in the world; it represented the pinnacle of swordsmanship.

Seeing this,

Ju Liusun and Tu Xingsun dared not underestimate or neglect them in the slightest. They hurriedly circulated their power to its peak, constantly forming hand seals to make the power of the great formation rise again, seemingly no less than Deng Chanyu's strike.

At this moment,

Ju Liusun and Tu Xingsun were full of confidence that they would be able to trap Deng Chanyu in the formation. Of course, killing Deng Chanyu was an impossible task.

...

at the same time,

The battle between Chen Qi and Zheng Lun was extremely fierce, and the one fighting alongside them was Master Du'e.

Although Master Du'e was alone, the demon he fused with was clearly extraordinary, possessing immense power.

At this time,

Chen Qi and Zheng Lun were surrounded by brilliant light, with streams of laws flowing around them as they unleashed their full range of supernatural powers.

In response,

Master Du'e blocked all the attacks, ensuring that Chen Qi and Zheng Lun were not harmed in the slightest.

"Are you still not repentant?! Following the will of Heaven is the true path to enlightenment. If you repent now, take me as your master, follow the way of Heaven, and you will have a bright future!"

After saying that,

Chen Qi and Zheng Lun sneered, "You want to be our master?! You think you're worthy?!"

As he spoke,

Chen Qi and Zheng Lun's aura suddenly changed; they were about to get serious.

As mysterious energy flowed and wondrous Dao talismans appeared, a silver and a gold hammer materialized in the hands of the two individuals. The hammers were inscribed with numerous divine runes and emanated an ancient aura.

Subsequently,

With hammers in hand, Chen Qi and Zheng Lun's hammers instantly grew to enormous sizes, emanating a terrifying aura. With a single strike, it seemed as if they could shatter the entire world.

Seeing this,

Master Du'e's face darkened considerably, and he coldly shouted, "Truly stubborn and incorrigible!"

The sound was about to fade away.

A red light suddenly appeared around Master Du'e, and scarlet runes condensed into a treasured sword.

moment,

With his sword in hand, Master Du'e, wielding a scarlet longsword, faced off against Chen Qi and Zheng Lun's enormous hammers.

In a short time,

Both sides moved nimbly, exchanging attacks and defenses, shattering space in their battle.

...

At this time,

On the ground,

Outside Sishui Pass,

Western Zhou camp

A minister beside Ji Fa said, “Your Majesty, should our Xiqi army temporarily withdraw? The weapons of the Shang army are truly extraordinary and powerful. As a result, our losses are too great. Therefore, I dare to suggest that our army withdraw first and wait until the immortals have finished fighting before attacking again. This way, we can minimize casualties.”

As soon as the sound ended

Ji Fa frowned slightly. "No, we absolutely cannot retreat. We must launch a full-scale attack. If we retreat now, we will be exhausted when we attack again. Send the order: the first person to reach the top of the city wall will be richly rewarded!"

Currently, all the powerful figures of the Shang Dynasty are tied down. If they cannot conquer the pass quickly, and if something unexpected happens, it will become even more difficult to conquer Sishui Pass again.

If that were the case, what would be the point of talking about unifying the world?!

At this moment, we must not stop our offensive!

Upon hearing this,

The minister's face immediately fell into a dilemma. The soldiers' morale was clearly low. Even if they forced an attack and managed to capture Sishui Pass, the casualties would be incalculable. Moreover, if the siege dragged on for too long, too many dead and wounded would destabilize the army and could very likely lead to a mutiny.

But he also knew very well that the current king would never listen to his advice.

In an instant, he foresaw the final outcome of this war. Of course, there was still a slight variable: all the powerful figures on the Shang side would perish, otherwise... Sishui Pass would never have been able to be taken.

"Tell those powerful figures besieging Wen Zhong that if they kill Wen Zhong, they will be granted land, be granted the title of king, and their titles will be hereditary!" Ji Fa's voice rang out again.

After saying that,
