Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

"Heh!" Lu Bu sneered and swung his halberd backhand in a slash.

The ultra-high-speed slashes are accompanied by explosive sounds and clearly visible viscous air, capable of dealing tons of damage.

But this attack was blocked by the burly general.

Lu Bu became interested; he was certain that the opponent wouldn't be able to withstand this attack before resurrecting.

"You can become stronger after you're resurrected?" Lu Bu looked at the burly general whose hands were trembling with interest.

"Hahaha, barbarian, you would never understand the greatness of the Zhou emperor. This is a blessing bestowed upon us by the Zhou emperor!" the burly general mocked arrogantly.

"Hehe!" Lu Bu sneered, gripping his halberd with both hands. With his aura concentrated to the extreme, he abandoned all flashy and impractical moves and thrust the halberd straight at his opponent.

The halberd shattered all the resistance of the burly general, easily piercing his throat.

"I'll see if you can pull this off..."

Lu Bu infused his divine will into his halberd, so what's the point of playing resurrection tricks in front of a divine cultivator? He's nothing but a thing that's never truly died.

Before Lu Bu could finish his taunt, the burly general reappeared on the spot, clutching his head as if nothing had happened, riding the seven-colored giant bull once more.

Lu Bu subconsciously channeled his divine will into himself, beginning to examine whether he had been tricked by some kind of illusion or other means.

After filtering through the results, I found that I was unaffected; the thing in my eyes had truly come back to life.

"What a joke!" This was the first time Lu Bu had encountered such a situation.

Before this, no matter what kind of demons or monsters they were, he could crush them all with his divine will, even if they were thousands of miles away.

This was the first time he had encountered an unkillable monster.

"Guards! Guards! Charge!"

The burly general had realized that he was no match for Lü Bu, and immediately ordered his personal guards to step forward and block Lü Bu.

He had absolutely no desire to fight a monster like Lü Bu.

Lu Bu's personal guards stepped forward to block the armored soldiers, and the two sides fought fiercely. However, the wolf cavalry ultimately prevailed, but the resurrection of the Zhou Dynasty soldiers caused the wolf cavalry a great headache.

"What's your name?"

Looking at the burly general who was truly unharmed, Lü Bu couldn't help but ask his name. Although he didn't know how the general had managed it, he was worthy of being remembered by Lü Bu for surviving under his command.

“Da Zhou, Lu Li!” Lu Li announced his name.

"This is the first time you've witnessed the Zhou Emperor's favor. You are brave and strong. If you are willing to pledge allegiance to the Great Zhou, you will surely receive the Zhou Emperor's favor as well. Join us!"

Lu Li extended an olive branch to Lü Bu. To many, the ability to be resurrected from the dead is a miracle. On his path of conquest, Lu Li had seen many warriors who worshipped him because of this.

"Heh, would you be so arrogant in front of those people from the Tang Dynasty?"

Lu Bu took out his bow and arrows, placed his fingers on the bowstring, and looked at Lu Li in the distance with a cold smile.

Do you really think he's a barbarian?
Such a paltry resurrection technique? Watch me shatter it with a single arrow.

"You know about the Tang Dynasty? You're in cahoots with those rebels from the Tang Dynasty?" Lu Li suddenly realized. So they were rebels. No wonder they were so strong.

"Die!" Lu Bu had no interest in continuing to talk to a dead man.

With a loud bang, Lü Bu didn't even look in the direction the arrow had been fired. He simply drew his bow and arrow four times before putting it away.

The first arrow pierced through Lu Li's head. He tried to dodge, but he couldn't escape Lu Bu's lock on.

Lu Bu rarely used bows and arrows, since arrows are easy to dodge.

Skilled fighters of the same level are not afraid of this kind of attack. Archers like Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong might even be able to use their arrows to fight back.

However, this tactic is hopeless and ineffective when used against someone weaker than oneself.

In the past, weaker opponents could be dealt with by the halberd, without the need for a bow and arrow. But Lu Li was different, so Lu Bu made his move.

Four consecutive golden-red arrows struck Lu Li's forehead, blasting his corpse to pieces.

Lu Li was killed by the will of God before he was resurrected. He would cover his head after being resurrected, which made Lu Bu realize that the attack of the will of God was effective.

So he first used all his strength to kill the opponent with an arrow, and then used a fixed-point explosion. The opponent, who was not in a conscious state, was unable to resist at all.

However, Lu Bu still underestimated his opponent, who actually revived once again.

This time, however, Lu Li retreated frantically as if he had seen a ghost, only breathing a sigh of relief when he was surrounded and protected by his personal guards.

"One, two, three... eight times!"

Lu Bu noticed the terror in the other man's eyes, a terror he was very familiar with—the terror of facing death.

"The Phoenix Dies Nine Times...can it really be resurrected nine times?"

Lu Bu frowned, a vague guess forming in his mind: if the opponent was guaranteed to revive nine times, then it must be some kind of sacred hymn rule.

This Heavenly Court is indeed unfathomable; from top to bottom, it displays the terrifying nature of its rules.

Unfortunately, Lu Li escaped too far, so even if he wanted to kill the other party, he couldn't. He couldn't test whether it was truly impossible to revive after killing the other party nine times.

Thinking of this, Lü Bu swept his halberd horizontally.

The Zhou soldiers who surrounded him fell to the ground one after another. However, unlike Lu Li, Lu Bu's attack easily extinguished their will, completely depriving them of the ability to revive, and they lay on the ground as complete corpses.

"Men, take a few corpses back!" Lu Bu called out, having completely abandoned his plan to overturn the entire camp.

Each soldier can be resurrected nine times. Even if all three of their legions were put into the mix, they might not be able to truly kill the enemy today.

As Lü Bu was plotting his retreat, he suddenly saw a distress signal coming from the sky, and a sense of foreboding washed over him.

Meanwhile, Taishi Ci and Ma Chao were completely trapped in a predicament.

Ma Chao initially relied on his speed to smash through the camp, crushing all the Zhou Dynasty soldiers who tried to block his way like a road roller.

They easily set fire to the camp's grain piles, completing their mission.

But when Ma Chao started running away, things were completely different.

Because of the presence of Zhou Dynasty soldiers everywhere, their speed began to decrease and their defenses weakened, turning the initial crushing attack into a close contest.

If it were any other legion, it wouldn't be so bad, but facing these immortal warriors who could resurrect, Ma Chao's main force was moving slower and slower, and was directly in danger of being surrounded and annihilated.

If it weren't for Taishi Ci, who was responsible for assisting Ma Chao, coming to his aid immediately after Ma Chao sent out a distress signal, Ma Chao might have been beaten to death.

Even with Taishi Ci's help, the two were still surrounded and unable to break free. It was only then that Ma Chao realized the enemy had deliberately given up resistance, allowing themselves to be trampled to death, and then lured them into this encirclement.

While logistical support is important, the Zhou Dynasty's legions could easily afford to exchange logistical support for a three-talent legion.

"Mengqi, I'll create an opening for you, and we'll break through in one fell swoop!" Taishi Ci's face was somewhat grim.

The opponent's defense was too strong. The air shockwaves unleashed by his headquarters, due to the power being dispersed by the continuous attacks, were unable to break through the opponent's defense.

Abandoning combos will further restrict the scope of activities due to insufficient numbers.

They were like wild boars trapped in a snare, struggling but unable to break free.

The more the encirclement is compressed, the more severe the suppression of cloud formations becomes.

Taishi Ci planned to unleash a full-force attack to see if he could break through the encirclement.

"Alright!" Ma Chao knew that if they dragged this out any longer, they would be wiped out, so he gritted his teeth and decided to make a desperate gamble.

"boom!"

Just as the two were quietly gathering their strength, preparing to unleash a powerful attack.

A tremendous roar interrupted their thoughts.

A golden-red halberd, several tens of meters in size, flew over fiercely and slammed heavily into the encirclement.

"Break through that way!" Taishi Ci looked at the oversized halberd and the sandstorm that followed the explosion, and he knew without a doubt who had come.

"Legion attack!"

A huge halberd flew out from Taishi Ci's hand, followed by more than a dozen halberds flying all the way, and a series of explosions rang out.

"Charge!" Ma Chao shouted, and the entire Liangzhou cavalry charged toward the direction of the explosion.

The worst thing about a charge is being interrupted before the speed can be increased. Now, Lu Bu and Taishi Ci have led their legions to create enough open channels for them, which allows them to increase their speed.

The Liangzhou cavalry, charging forward with absolute force, smashed through the encirclement, and Taishi Ci followed closely behind Ma Chao's main force in their retreat.

The surging armored soldiers were intercepted and killed by Lü Bu and his wolf riders. The wolf riders were like larger versions of the armored soldiers, and they could easily kill the armored soldiers in a head-on battle.

However, due to the constant resurrection of his cavalry, Lu Bu was forced to retreat with his wolf riders after holding out for a while.

Zhou's camp did not dare to pursue, and the Taoist priests and monsters who rushed over could only return empty-handed.

Lu Li reported Lu Bu's information, but the Grand Minister of Works, Junya, who was in charge, only glanced at it and didn't pay much attention to it.

Ultimately, he was just a super soldier, no match for the undead army.

Although Lü Bu and his men achieved their objective, it could be considered a minor defeat.

"Undying..." Yue Fei didn't take it seriously at first, after all, they had predicted that the opponent was a super heavy infantryman.

But when Yue Fei heard that even Lu Bu's divine will could not wipe out the ordinary soldiers on the other side, a solemn expression finally appeared on his face.

In other words, the Zhou Dynasty's military strength they are now facing has increased ninefold, and this numerical difference is absolutely fatal.

No matter how confident Yue Fei was, such a huge disparity in troop strength was a fatal disadvantage.

Chen Gong, Xu Shu, and others have already started working overtime to research ways to break the immortality barrier. Since the immortality of the other side is a kind of rule, they should have no problem starting with the fragments of the Holy Song.

The Zhou Dynasty, in turn, began to test the Zhou Dynasty in response to their probing. Yue Fei, relying on the defensive fortifications set up by Hou Tu's army, repelled the attacking Zhou Dynasty soldiers.

Looking at the battlefield where not a single corpse was left, Yue Fei's apprehension reached an unprecedented level.

About half a month later, Xu Shu and the others finally came up with a method that was not exactly a method.

"This is an experimental product from our previous research on Frostmourne. The lab named it the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls. This thing can directly summon undead creatures from corpses. It is a product that combines Frostmourne and fragments of order."

Xu Shu handed a banner to Lü Bu, instructing Lü Bu to lead troops to attack the camp again to test the effectiveness of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

These days, they've been under a lot of pressure; the undead legion is proving to be more difficult than they ever imagined.

They never imagined that the number of these rogue legions, the heavy infantry, would expand to hundreds of thousands and become such a troublesome situation.

They were even more disgusting than the illusionary army on the Han side.

After all, these Zhou Dynasty soldiers could continue to grow stronger even after dying in battle, a feat that was unprecedented and unparalleled.

The Miracle Legion also tried to make a move, but the result was even worse than Ma Er had said. Even if the Miracle transformation negated the rules, the consumption level increased dramatically. Even if the Miracle Legion were exhausted, it would be impossible to break through the opponent.

If Xu Shu and his men hadn't found a solution, Yue Fei might have even considered seeking advice from the Tang Dynasty.

This joint operation is a show of force by both sides. If they bow down to the Tang Dynasty, it's hard to say what the subsequent consequences will be.

However, Yue Fei didn't know that the Tang Dynasty was also helpless. They could limit the number of times Zhou Dynasty soldiers could be resurrected to between four and five by controlling the fragments of the sacred song.

It was indeed useful, as it directly wiped out half of the nine million reserves.

However, it was indeed useless on the actual battlefield, and figuring out how to eliminate the top 4.5 million became a thorny problem.

Because of their immortality, the Zhou Dynasty army has an exceptionally high tolerance for error. No matter what methods they use to counter them, these immortal troops can adjust at the fastest speed, thus rendering their plans ineffective.

Lu Bu and his men attacked the Zhou army's camp with the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

The process was no different from before, but Lu Bu and his men already knew how powerful the Undying Legion was, so this time they fought relatively conservatively, only launching a strong attack on the outer perimeter, without any intention of rushing in all at once.

Lu Bu wielded his halberd, unleashing his full power, and the golden-red light killed more than a dozen Zhou soldiers.

Immediately afterward, the Ten Thousand Souls Banner began to exert its power. Among the dozen or so soldiers who had been killed, three soldiers had their eyes flashing with the fire of the dead, and they directly swung their weapons to attack the other resurrected soldiers.

"A probability close to one in five?"

Lu Bu was overjoyed to see that the three soldiers who had been turned into undead had not been resurrected, but then he discovered that the three undead soldiers who had been killed had actually been resurrected again and had become Zhou Dynasty soldiers.

Unconvinced, Lü Bu led his personal guards in another charge, only to find that the Ten Thousand Soul Banner was indeed effective, but its effect was quite limited.

It has a nearly one-in-five chance of turning soldiers into undead, and this effect applies every time a soldier dies.

Similarly, the resurrection of undead soldiers is also determined with an 80% success rate after each death.

What's worse is that the Ten Thousand Soul Banner has a limited range of influence; it only affects the resurrection probability in the vicinity of Lu Bu's territory.

Players like Ma Chao and Taishi Ci, who were feinting attacks from the left and right flanks, wouldn't benefit from this buff at all. (End of Chapter)
