"Hold the line! Brothers, hold the line! His Highness the Crown Prince and the Seventeenth Prince have already sent word. A large number of powerful experts are rushing to reinforce the southern city gate. We only need to hold on a little longer, and the reinforcements will arrive!"
"..."
"Brothers, they can't break through our city-gate formation! We will win!"
"..."
A soldier guarding the city gate kept shouting at the top of his lungs, rousing everyone's morale. His voice, infused with spiritual power, reached the ears of every martial artist defending the gate.
Just as the commander thought the Divine Martial Nation's army would be unable to break through the city-gate formation, he suddenly saw a white-clad man step out from the Divine Martial Nation's ranks. Black flames surged around his entire body, as though he were being consumed by terrifying black fire. His gaze looked down on all beneath the heavens, and his expression was icy. He raised the sharp sword in his hand and slashed at the city gate.
A streak of black Sword Qi swept across heaven and earth, piercing the Nine Heavens above and cleaving the Netherworld below. It slammed into the city gate, sending out a world-shaking tremor.
The commander turned back in astonishment, only to see the supposedly indestructible wall behind him collapse with a roar beneath that single sword strike. The city-gate formation, famed as unparalleled beneath heaven, shattered layer by layer and dispersed across the wall!
That single sword strike had broken the formation and destroyed the city gate...
The commander stared dumbfounded, his mouth agape. "What kind of power is this...?"
"Kill! Kill!"
Once the city-gate formation was broken, the Divine Martial Nation's army's fighting spirit flared anew. They surged toward the defenders, and another bloody massacre began.
