Breaking Through the City Guarding Array

"This... we don't know the enemy's numbers and strength yet, so it's hard to draw a conclusion! We must know the opponent's strength to deduce whether we have a chance of winning!"

Huang Feihu shook his head. He had no way to answer Bi Gan's question at this time. After all, Huang Feihu hadn't even seen the enemy's face yet, so how could he know if they had a chance of winning?

Seeing that Huang Feihu did not answer, Bi Gan stopped talking about it, and then looked at the people around him and said, "Everyone, the enemy has already reached our doorstep. No matter how strong or how many they are, our Great Shang Dynasty must fight them to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the ministers in the hall immediately shouted in unison, their morale was high!

"Let's go!"

With an order, Huang Feihu, Shang Rong, Bi Gan and other ministers walked towards the palace gate together.

"The defense of this royal palace cannot be underestimated. Unless someone with great strength takes action and breaks it with force, it is simply a fantasy to capture it with a large army!"

In front of the palace gate, Marquis of Xibo, Ji Chang, narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the Great Shang Royal Palace in front of him, thoughtfully.

He had already discovered that a huge formation was shrouded on the palace walls around the palace. Obviously, this was the City Guarding Array.

Although this formation is not very mysterious and far from the Ancestor City's guarding formation, it is more than enough to stop people like them with low strength.

"This City Guarding Array should have been arranged by the first Shang king in conjunction with some sect experts. Its power is not weak. Although it is not a threat to us, it is not necessarily the case for others."

Ji Chang thought for a moment, then smiled knowingly.

He must break through the Great Shang Royal Palace.

However, even though these dukes had arrived here, they still did not dare to relax their vigilance. After all, this was the Great Shang Royal Palace, the place with the strongest defense.

Not to mention the Three Armies of Nation Guarding inside, the strength of the several enshrined experts left over from the founding of the Great Shang Dynasty was also terrifying. If it were just the Four Great Dukes, they would really not dare to directly attack Chaoge City.

After silently observing the defense formation of the royal palace for a while, Ji Chang turned his head to look at the other three dukes next to him, as well as the dozen or so sect leaders, and said, "We have arrived at the palace gate. Now, how should we break the formation? I wonder if you have any brilliant ideas?"

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads, "Marquis of Xibo thinks too highly of us. Although this formation is not very powerful, it is not something that we can break open alone. In order to make a quick decision, let's take action together and break the formation with all our strength!"

"If that's the case, let's begin!"

Ji Chang waved his hand indifferently, not wanting to say anything more.

In the next moment, with a wave of his sleeves, the spiritual energy of the entire world rolled and moved, as if even the sky had dimmed a bit.

Black clouds are pressing down on the city, threatening to destroy it!

"We are definitely not their opponents with this kind of momentum. Where is the king? Didn't he already report it?"

The Commander of the Imperial Guards on the palace wall couldn't help but become serious when he saw this situation. He could even feel a sense of danger from the opponent's aura.

However, in the next moment, he banished all these feelings from his mind. He must know that he is at the Profound Connection Realm's Completion stage, and with the City Guarding Array, he is enough to contend against the Transcendent Realm.

How many Transcendent exist within the entire Great Shang Dynasty?

"Reporting to the general, the king has already gone to invite the enshrined experts to come out of seclusion. In addition, the ministers and Martial Accomplishment King have also arrived and should be here soon!"

Rumble rumble rumble...

As the words of a soldier beside him fell, the sky shone with brilliant light. A cold glint flashed in Ji Chang's eyes, and he pointed a finger into the air.

Immediately, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth rapidly converged, transforming into a gigantic finger thousands of feet in size, its power astonishing.

The giant finger crushed through the void, like a meteor streaking across the sky, and amidst the horrified gazes of the crowd, it heavily bombarded the massive formation.

Bang!

At this moment, the entire royal palace seemed to tremble violently.

Buzz

The formation remained motionless.

But at this moment, the attacks of the others arrived one after another, all without exception striking the spot where Ji Chang's attack had landed on the formation.

Bang!

This formation was ultimately unable to withstand such a powerful attack. Accompanied by an earth-shattering roar, it transformed into a sky full of light spots.

After shattering the formation, Ji Chang and the others did not diminish their momentum, continuing to attack the royal palace walls.

Rumble rumble rumble...

Smoke and dust filled the sky!

Deafening!

Then, to the horror of the crowd, the royal palace walls, which were a full dozen or so zhang in height and stretched for several miles, actually turned into ruins in an instant.

Even the Imperial Guards stationed on the city walls were instantly killed, their souls scattered.

"How dare you!"

"Bold Ji Chang, do you really think my Great Shang Dynasty is easy to bully?"

After Ji Chang and the others broke through the gates of the royal palace, they were preparing to enter the palace and destroy the Great Shang Dynasty in one fell swoop.

But suddenly, hundreds of people rushed out from inside the palace, led by Martial Accomplishment King Huang Feihu and Prime Minister Shang Rong.

At this time, the people on the Great Shang side all glared at Ji Chang and the others. If their eyes could kill, Ji Chang and his group would have been reduced to ashes long ago.

"Martial Accomplishment King, Great Shang's Di Yi offended the Ancestor God, and the Ancestral Home sent down punishment, stripping the Human King of his rights. The dukes have been attacking for a hundred years, and the current Shang King has been unable to cultivate for ten generations. Why must you be so loyal to Great Shang? Why not abandon Shang and leave? The gates of my Xiqi are always open to you!"

Ji Chang, as the founder of the Acquired Eight Trigrams, spoke directly to the root of the problem.

The current Great Shang Dynasty, unless there is external intervention, how could they possibly withstand the attacks of the dukes?

Even if they withstand it this time, what about next time? Don't forget that only the Four Great Dukes and some sect members came this time, and even if they fail, they will not suffer too much loss.

They still have a million-strong allied army behind them, which the current Great Shang Dynasty simply cannot resist.

"Ji Chang, you are simply too presumptuous, daring to lecture the Great King in front of civil and military officials!"

Huang Feihu hadn't said anything yet, but Bi Gan next to him couldn't help but scold him.

"I say, Marquis of Xibo, what are you wasting your breath on with them here? If you keep dawdling, the Great Shang's few enshrined experts will be here!"

At this moment, the other three dukes behind Ji Chang impatiently spoke up.

Before their voices faded, the three of them didn't give anyone else a chance to react, directly choosing their own targets and attacking.

Then, those people from the sects did the same, all finding a minister to fight against.

Looking at the Martial Accomplishment King and Bi Gan, who were the only ones left on the other side, Ji Chang had no choice but to face them both alone.
