At this very moment, within the capital city of Chang'an of the Great Han Dynasty, in the prefectural seats of the Three Prefectures, and along the endless borders, countless heroes of the Great Han stood in the void, bowed towards the Imperial Palace of Chang'an, and their divine power erupted, breaking through layer upon layer of realms!
"Your subject, Li Si!"
"Meng Tian!"
"Li Bai!"
"Guan Yu!"

......
"Great Han Dynasty?"
"A dynasty that in just twenty years possesses the strength to sweep away Divine Dynasties?!"
In a palace deep within the fifth hall of the Thunder Cloud Hall, Lei Ce, the Hall Master of the Fifth Hall, spoke indifferently as he looked at Hai Yao and Hai He, who were kneeling before him.
The Thunder Cloud Hall was established by the Thunder Snake clan. The entire Thunder Cloud Hall was divided into six halls, with six great hall masters, all of whom were experts at the Saint Lord realm, jointly governing the thirty Dao prefectures of the Thunder Cloud Hall.
"Hall Master, it's more than that. When I escaped from the Haiyun Divine Dynasty, the Great Han Dynasty had already swept across the entire Western Hundred Cities. Even the Yaoguang Divine Dynasty could not resist the iron cavalry of the Great Han. Now that they have been promoted to a Divine Dynasty, they are proclaiming to all four directions, inviting all nearby powers to attend the ceremony in Chang'an, the capital of the Great Han!"
Below the grand hall, Hai Yao, who had fled, stood respectfully with his son Hai He.
"Hall Master, on that day, the Great Han Dynasty approached our borders. I declared that the Haiyun Divine Dynasty was backed by the Thunder Cloud Hall, but I never expected that young scoundrel Yang Hao would completely ignore it and directly send troops, annihilating our Haiyun's million-strong army in one day!" Hai Yao took the opportunity to say again.
"Presumptuous! A mere dynasty dares to disregard my Thunder Cloud Hall and even proclaim to all directions!"
"Do you really think your human race is the same as it was before? Are the Western Hundred Cities the same as they were ninety million years ago!"
A creature at the Great Saint realm glanced at Hai Yao and immediately became furious. Ninety million years ago, the entire western forces were attacked by the Eight Great Families of the Central Continent, and the Western Hundred Cities suffered the most. Experts above the Saint realm were almost annihilated. This war caused the Western Hundred Cities to not recover for ninety million years.
"However, a mere dynasty, in just twenty years, has produced more than a dozen powerful Saint Kings, each a supreme talent among humans, possessing terrifying combat power capable of slaying opponents across realms!" Another Great Saint realm creature, flipping through the intelligence brought by Hai Yao, was shocked to his core.
"If we intervene in this matter, I fear... we need to delve deeper into the rise of the Great Han Dynasty!" The Great Saint realm creature's brow furrowed deeper as he read. From the few pieces of intelligence he had seen, there was definitely an ultimate expert protecting the Great Han, otherwise, it would be impossible for them to become so powerful in twenty years. This was too contrary to facts.
"That won't do! A tiny human race has already insulted my Thunder Cloud Hall in front of all sentient beings. I cannot tolerate this insult!"
"If we remain inactive, and this news reaches Ziyun Mountain and Tianyuan Divine Dynasty, who knows how they will mock us!"
"The Haiyun Divine Dynasty, which is affiliated with my Thunder Cloud Hall, was destroyed by others, yet they brazenly invite us to witness the ceremony. Hah, what a humiliation!"
"If this Great Han Dynasty is not destroyed, my Thunder Cloud Hall will be inferior to Ziyun Mountain and Tianyuan Divine Dynasty in Beili Jiang!" an old man said, puffing out his beard and glaring.
"Hall Master!" Hai Yao looked at the few strong individuals and said with a hardened scalp, "The Great Han Dynasty has countless Saint King experts, each possessing terrifying strength to slay opponents across realms. This humble one suggests that they should be eliminated as soon as possible. The ambition of that young scoundrel Yang Hao cannot be contained by just one Western Hundred Cities."
"Taking advantage of the present moment, it is the best time to cut down the Great Han!"
Listening to Hai Yao's words, Lei Ce remained silent. The origin of the Great Han Dynasty was mysterious, which was his point of hesitation. On the other hand, if the matter had reached this point, and he did not speak, the other hall masters would also intervene, in which case his Fifth Hall's status would be greatly diminished.
"This time, I will go personally."
"The Great Han Dynasty has defied my Thunder Cloud Hall and insulted my Thunder Cloud Hall's holy might before all sentient beings!"
"This time, I will personally bury the Great Han Dynasty!" After half an hour, Lei Ce said coldly.
Although he had many subordinates at the Great Saint realm, they would be useless against the Great Han. To put the Great Han to death, he, the Fifth Hall Master, had to act himself.
"We obey the Hall Master's decree!"
The beings in the grand hall all stood up.
......
"My Lord!" In the demon sea swamp territory, a man holding a tooth walked up to a white-haired old man. The old man slightly raised his head and looked at the tooth in the man's hand. Instantly, a divine light erupted from his already emotionless eyes. A series of scenes flashed through his mind. This old man was named Jiagu Zhe, the youngest son of the current lord of the Demon Sea. Ten million years ago, Jiagu Zhe was still young and, unhappy with some of the Demon Sea's laws, found an opportunity to escape and roam outside. Unexpectedly, a crisis struck, even threatening his life. Fortunately, he was rescued by the then Crown Prince of the Yaoguang Divine Dynasty, thus saving his life. To express his gratitude for saving his life, Jiagu Zhe left a tooth he had shed as a token of remembrance and asked his benefactor for help, stating that if he or his descendants were in trouble, they could come to the Demon Sea Swamp with this token.
"Has he come?" Jiagu Zhe tremblingly extended his hand, touching the old tooth.
