223: The city gates are closed, and the Dragon Cannon Holy Guards are attacking the city.
The heavy arrows from the Arrow Tower forced Pei Yuanqing to raise his war hammer to block, retreating as he defended.
Shangguan Yue also withdrew into the city under Shangguan Cliff's protection.
"What kind of monster is that guy with the silver war hammer? He actually smashed the Iron Wall into that state. Even my father probably couldn't do that, could he?"
Shangguan Jue stared at Pei Yuanqing as if she had seen a ghost, already drenched in sweat and filled with fear.
...
"This subordinate was ineffective in his duties, and the plan failed. Please punish this subordinate, Lord."
Pei Yuanqing came before Yang Qianhun, his words tinged with dejection and self-reproach.
"It's alright. I didn't expect the opponent to have this trick up his sleeve. It's not your fault. Since they are determined not to come out, then we'll attack by force."
Yang Qianhun looked at the Shangguan Cliff siblings on the city wall and said calmly.
Then he raised his hand high, condensing a ball of flame.
Around the flame, earthy yellow light spots floated.
With a whoosh.
The flame shot into the sky, and with a bang.
It bloomed like fireworks.
...
66th City's East Gate.
Zhang Fei, holding his Serpent Spear, said with a face full of rage, "That turtle's grandson, he's been cursed at for a long time, but he still doesn't dare to come out of the city gate. He only acts like a coward and plays tricks like shooting arrows. What a waste!"
Wei Yan advised from the side, "There's no point in rushing in this situation. Let's wait for the Lord's signal."
Suddenly, there was a bang in the sky, and sparks scattered.
Luo Cheng looked up, his eyes filled with battle intent, and laughed, "The signal has arrived. We can begin."
"All Dragon Cannon Saint Guards prepare! Blast open that shield for me! Once the shield is broken, everyone follow me and kill!"
Zhang Fei's battle intent instantly surged, and he roared fiercely.
...
66th City's West Gate.
Yuchi Gong was shot back by a barrage of arrows, and he said angrily, "These cowards, no matter how much we challenge them, they just won't come out. It's as if they're deaf, only knowing how to challenge."
Dian Wei, holding his twin halberds, remained silent, his eyes fixed on the city wall.
"The signal has finally arrived."
Lu Zhishen heard the sound, looked up, and said happily.
"All Dragon Cannon Saint Guards, prepare to fire!"
Dian Wei's calm voice spread throughout the army behind him.
...
At Yang Qianhun's location, approximately one thousand meters from 66th City.
"Seven Star Chain Cannons, break it!"
Yang Qianhun directly commanded.
Immediately, two thousand Dragon Cannon Saint Guards outside the South Gate, and three thousand Dragon Cannon Saint Guards each outside the West Gate and East Gate.
The massive Dragon Cannons behind the eight thousand Dragon Cannon Saint Guards erupted with purple light, and their spiritual energy continuously poured into the Dragon Cannons.
The enormous dragon-shaped muzzles, with the infusion of spiritual energy, doubled in size, resembling heavy, large-caliber cannons.
The purple light, mixed with a hint of golden light, exuded a sacred yet dangerous aura.
With a roar, the massive Dragon Cannons on the backs of the eight thousand Dragon Cannon Saint Guards emitted a purplish-gold light.
A spherical light ball, several times larger than a basketball, shimmered with purplish-gold light and shot towards 66th City.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
In an instant, the entire sky was covered by purplish-gold light, a full eight thousand purplish-gold light balls.
They descended towards the city wall in a parabolic trajectory......
Shangguan Jue on the city wall involuntarily retreated several steps, her face filled with shock, and she said with some panic in her voice, "What kind of skill is this? It feels like it could destroy the world."
"Damn it, that Spirit General is already like a monster, and those troops carrying dragon-shaped cannons are also so powerful. They can actually unleash such terrifying spiritual skills? Who exactly is that Lord? It's incredible that he possesses such powerful Spirit Generals and troops."
Shangguan Yue no longer had any trace of defiance on his face. The performance of these enemies completely exceeded his understanding, and he even felt a sense of defeat in his heart.
"It's fine, the Central Energy Shield Tower should be able to defend against it..."
Shangguan Cliff was already sweating profusely. The aura emanating from those eight thousand purple light balls made him feel incomparably terrified, and his voice was even a little uncertain.
No sooner had he finished speaking...
Boom... Rumble... Boom... Rumble... Boom... Rumble... Boom... Rumble... Boom... Rumble...
Almost simultaneously, deafening explosions rang out, as if a sharp blade was about to cut open everyone's eardrums......
The defenders on the city wall were all dazed and terrified by the explosions.
Powerful energy ripples emanated from the shield in the sky, and the massive city shield seemed to tremble.
"It stopped?"
Shangguan Jue, still covering her ears, looked up at the sky and was instantly dumbfounded, saying, "Again? It's not over yet?"
"What kind of troops are these? How are they even more powerful than siege cannons?"
Shangguan Yue was already so scared that he slumped to the ground, forgetting to cover his ears.
"Another eight thousand light projectiles. Can the Central Energy Shield Tower withstand this wave of attack?"
Shangguan Cliff looked up, his eyes already bloodshot. The situation before him had completely surpassed his control.
On the city wall of 66th City's West Gate.
"What kind of troops are these? How can they unleash such terrifying attacks? Big Brother, are you still not coming out of seclusion?"
Shangguan Qinglin, holding a long spear, looked at the sky full of purplish-gold light balls, his eyes filled with worry. Beads of sweat trickled down his forehead, yet he still didn't notice.
On the city wall of 66th City's East Gate...
"Even I, a fifth-stage Spirit General, would probably only be able to run away in the face of such terrifying attacks. Can this wave be stopped?"
Shangguan Lieshan's face was full of bitterness, but facing the enemy's overwhelming numbers, he couldn't take the initiative to attack and could only defend strictly.
...
Eight thousand purple light balls simultaneously landed on the city's shield.
Boom... Rumble... Boom... Rumble... Boom... Rumble... Boom... Rumble... Boom... Rumble...
Again, almost simultaneously, deafening explosions rang out.
The city shield deployed by the Central Energy Shield Tower continuously resisted the impact of the explosions, emitting sizzling sounds......
The entire invisible shield trembled slightly, as if it were in an unstable state.
The next second...
Another eight thousand purplish-gold light balls appeared in the sky.
"Again? This is the third wave. What kind of power is this?"
Shangguan Cliff, Shangguan Yue, Shangguan Jue, Shangguan Lieshan, and Shangguan Qinglin looked up at the third wave of purplish-gold light balls, their eyes filled with despair.
Immediately after, eight thousand purplish-gold light balls, without exception, landed on the shield. Even if the defending soldiers used all their might, it was useless.
They could only watch helplessly as eight thousand purplish-gold light balls touched the city shield and then exploded.
The next second...
Sizzle sizzle sizzle... Cracking sounds rang out, and visible black cracks appeared on the city shield......
It was like a white cloth being streaked with ink.
As the fourth wave arrived, another eight thousand purplish-gold light projectiles landed on the city shield......
