My cultivation disguise has been exposed by Xiao Sizi.

On each dragon scale, there shimmered the prosperous phantom of the Tang Dynasty, where men farmed and women wove, and soldiers conquered new territories.

This is a true national treasure!

It is the ultimate manifestation of humanitarian will!

The golden dragon of fortune circled halfway around the city of Chang'an.

Then.

It suddenly swung its massive, mountain-like tail.

It tore apart the barriers of space.

It traversed thousands of miles of mountains and rivers at a terrifying speed that disregarded physical distance.

It instantly descended upon the battlefield in northern Xinjiang!

The plains of northern Xinjiang.

A sudden gust of wind arose, and the world changed color.

The 100,000 Xuanjia soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were struggling to withstand the power of the Buddha in the Nascent Soul stage, bleeding from all seven orifices.

Sudden.

They felt the pressure on their bodies suddenly ease.

The immense pressure that weighed on their backs seemed to be lifted up instantly by a warm and powerful giant hand.

The soldiers struggled to raise their heads.

What comes into view.

It was a towering golden dragon of fortune, hovering above their heads and protecting the entire Tang fleet beneath it!

The golden dragon's enormous eyes, like two blazing suns, were looking down at the pair of Buddha eyes in the void rift with majesty and anger.

"It's Your Majesty!"

"It's His Majesty's golden dragon of destiny!"

on the deck.

Cheng Yaojin leaned on his Xuanhua axe, looking at the familiar dark golden dragon above his head.

This tough man's eyes instantly welled up with tears.

Veteran generals like Yuchi Gong and Qin Qiong were so excited that they trembled and their eyes filled with tears.

"His Majesty has not abandoned us!"

"Long live the Great Tang Dynasty! Long live His Majesty!"

One hundred thousand soldiers erupted in thunderous cheers of relief, their morale soaring to an unprecedented peak in that instant.

At the very front of the command ship.

Li Chen lowered his hands, which were about to form a hand seal.

Looking at the majestic golden dragon of fortune above his head, a relieved and radiant smile finally appeared on his lips.

"Old Deng."

Li Chen chuckled lightly, "You picked a pretty good time to strike. You managed to pull off that impressive display."

Deep within the void rift.

Those enormous golden Buddha eyes gazed at the golden dragon of fortune that stretched across the heavens and earth.

His eyes turned completely cold.

"How dare a mere mortal emperor interfere with the judgment of gods and Buddhas!"

"Since your Great Tang is so stubborn and foolish as to try to use the fate of a mortal nation to oppose the supreme Buddha Dharma."

"Then today, this old monk will shatter even the very dragon vein of your Tang Dynasty!"

A furious snort echoed from the void.

Followed by.

Those golden Buddha eyes suddenly burst forth with a dazzling golden light ten times stronger than before.

A golden beam of destruction, compressed from pure faith, shot out from the Buddha's eyes like an unparalleled sword!

Strike straight for the head of the Golden Dragon of Fortune!

"All worldly matters of national destiny are but illusions! Smash them to pieces, you old monk!"

Faced with this furious attack from a Nascent Soul stage expert.

The golden dragon of the Tang Dynasty's destiny showed no sign of retreating.

Instead, it unleashed a deafening dragon roar filled with mockery and domineering power!

"hold head high--!"

Jinlong didn't use any fancy spells at all.

It represents the indomitable backbone of the Tang Dynasty!

Suddenly, the enormous dragon body, tens of thousands of feet long, straightened up and charged straight up against the destructive golden beam of light!

"Bang!"

The golden beam of light slammed into the golden dragon's head.

But what is truly horrifying is...

That terrifying attack, which was enough to instantly annihilate a Nascent Soul cultivator at the Great Perfection stage, struck the dark golden dragon scales without leaving even a crack!

All of it was forcefully repelled and neutralized by the extremely abundant humanistic fortune of the Tang Dynasty!

"impossible!"

The old monk in the void finally panicked, his voice filled with disbelief and terror.

"What level of national destiny is this?!"

Little did he know.

After the Tang Dynasty absorbed several small cultivation worlds such as the Blood Fiend Sect and the Heavenly Wolf Valley, its fortune underwent a tremendous transformation.

Moreover, this was a sword strike that Li Shimin unleashed by exhausting the power of the "Forging Immortal Dynasty" technique and using all the strength of the entire nation!

"roar!"

The golden dragon of fortune surged upstream and instantly rushed to the front of the void rift.

Under the horrified gaze of the Buddha's eyes.

The golden dragon suddenly opened its blood-red maw, wide enough to devour the sun and moon.

It revealed rows of dragon teeth as sharp as divine weapons.

then.

He stared at that enormous, arrogant, golden Buddha eye.

Hard!

I took a bite!

"Snap—!!!"

A crisp, loud sound, like shattering glass, exploded in the sky.

A chilling scene unfolded.

That enormous golden Buddha eye was actually bitten off a large chunk from the void by the golden dragon of the Tang Dynasty's fortune!

Golden blood, like a torrential downpour, poured from the cracks.

But before it even hit the ground, it was evaporated into nothingness by the blazing fire of fortune emanating from the golden dragon.

"Aaaaaahh ...

The deepest part of the void rift.

A muffled scream, piercingly painful and filled with endless agony and humiliation, rang out!

That was a projection of the divine consciousness of a Nascent Soul stage expert!

It was actually bitten into pieces like a snack by a dragon representing the destiny of a mortal dynasty!

"swallow!"

From the direction of Chang'an City, Li Shimin shouted loudly from afar.

The golden dragon of fortune chewed on the fragment of the Buddha's eye, which was rich in the power of faith, and swallowed it with a gulp.

Then, its massive body twisted violently.

With a powerful dragon tail whip, it lashed out at the edge of the void rift!

"Boom!"

The space was violently shaking.

The crack that had been forcibly torn open began to collapse and close rapidly under the domineering power of the golden dragon.

"Li Shimin...the Tang Dynasty..."

One second before the void completely closes.

The voice had lost its previous solemnity and dignity, leaving only the resentment and curses of a demon.

"You defied the will of Heaven... shattered the Buddha's eyes..."

"The Buddhist calamity has arrived!"

"It won't be long... until I completely break through the boundary barrier..."

"I will surely turn your Great Tang territory into an endless sea of ​​blood! I will condemn all your people to eternal damnation in the deepest hell!!!"

The vicious curse was abruptly severed by the completely healed spatial barrier.

The sky has returned to its azure blue.

Sunlight pierced through the clouds and shone once more on the ravaged plains of northern Xinjiang.

"Ugh~"

The golden dragon of fortune circled once in the sky.

It lowered its massive head and nodded slightly to Li Chen on the deck.

Then, it transformed into countless dark golden specks of light, vanished back into nothingness, and returned to the underground dragon vein of Chang'an City.

ended.

This earth-shattering, cross-dimensional battle of wits ultimately ended with the Tang emperor's powerful counterattack and the Buddhist master's wounded and defeated retreat.

On the Tang Dynasty fleet.

The deathly silence lasted for a full ten seconds.

then.

"We won!"

"Your Majesty is mighty! Long live the Tang Dynasty!"

"To hell with the Buddhist kingdom! Anyone who dares to mess with our Great Tang will be torn to pieces, even if they're a god!"

The deafening cheers soared into the sky.

The soldiers embraced each other and wept, while the generals were also beaming with excitement.

Li Tai lay sprawled on the deck, panting heavily, his face filled with the relief of surviving a disaster.

"I was terrified... Father's protective nature is becoming more and more to my liking!"

Crown Prince Li Chengqian took a deep breath and sheathed the Panlong Golden Sword.

His eyes shone with an unprecedented confidence.

After this battle...

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty finally understood.

What immortal cultivation sects? What extraterrestrial gods and Buddhas?

Before the invincible destiny of their Great Tang Dynasty, they are all paper tigers! As long as they are united, as long as the Emperor's sword points...

There was no place in the world that the Tang Dynasty's iron cavalry could not trample!

"All troops, listen to my command!"

Li Chen turned around and looked at the group of soldiers with high morale.

He drew his longsword and pointed it straight south.

"Collect the spoils!"

"Return to the capital in triumph!"
