Within the boundless sea of sand, nine Celestial Warriors towered over a hundred zhang in height, standing far off in the distance, reminiscent of mirages in a desert. Each clad in golden armor, they stood tall and erect, with their heads hidden among the clouds, only the faces of the Cloud-Swallow Beasts on their shoulder guards visible, while they each held giant golden staves as large as mountain pillars.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Celestial Warriors struck the ground with their golden weapons, shaking the heavens and the earth. The sand sea roared, and the world quaked, with sand dunes rolling like massive waves. Almost the entire sky and earth seemed to tear apart, crumble, and split open with each of their synchronized, thunderous strikes.
These towering giants stood within an Illusion Realm, naturally not existing in reality, but they were nevertheless the Yellow Turban Warriors manifested by Duan Kecheng's divine powers, the divine manifestations of his Primordial Spirit.
