Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 947 Once, twice, and a third time?
"Leave it to you!"

Xiang Shaoyu coughed up blood and flew backward, but as he flew, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and laughed wildly.

His final attack also left a wound on Yu's body, and Yu's immortal golden nature had become dim and unrecognizable.

After continuously resisting so many powerful bursts of energy that broke through boundaries, even a monster like Yu was exhausted.

"I come!"

After Dian Wei and Xiang Shaoyu both left the stage, Gao Chong decisively stepped forward.

Zhao Yun struck Yu on the forehead with his spear, sending Yu flying.

Having the body react faster than the brain is often not a good thing, but pure intuition can be very beneficial.

Just like now, the moment Gao Chong saw Yu flying over, he subconsciously unleashed his ultimate strength and launched a sweeping attack on Yu.

Just like a baseball home run, Yu was swept away. As Luo Hou Luo Ka flew backward, he slammed down with his spear, sending Yu flying once again.

"To preserve the last bit of their metallic essence, they've already started to physically endure it?"

Su intercepted the projectile-like creature with his cross-shaped pistol halfway through its flight, and then blasted it away with a burst of energy.

"I'm more inclined to believe he's preparing something else!" Zhao Yun said without hesitation, using his Dragon Gall Spear to send Yu flying.

In an instant, the crowd, like a game of musical chairs, turned the demon into a ball and kicked it around wildly.

It was completely different from the feeling before that it was impossible to shake.

"It's about to self-destruct! Strike quickly!"

Sue raised the cross spear and poured all the divine will into it. His eyes had been restored, and he saw the end of the future.

Upon hearing Su's roar, Yue Fei roared in anger, channeling all his inner energy into the spearhead, manifesting the image of a flying roc, and struck the demon with great force.

The roc's beak pierced the yu's forelimbs in an instant.

The next moment, Jin Xing manifested, and Yue Fei's explosive attack could not penetrate even a little, leaving him only able to retreat in a sorry state.

At that very moment, a streak of light appeared from the horizon and pierced directly into the body of the demon.

"Such a grand occasion, how could our Confucian school not participate!" Yan Hui put down his bow and arrow and said with a smile.

"What did you do?" Beidou asked, looking at the chaotic Yu with some confusion.

"It's nothing, I just asked him to take a look at our Confucian classics!" Yan Hui replied with a slight smile.

He gathered the thoughts of many Confucian scholars into an arrow of faith, and then shot it into the body of the demon.

The vast Confucian classics are enough to keep one entertained for a long time.

"die!"

Seizing the opportunity, Jebe, who had mobilized all his energy and spirit, fired an arrow that united his three archer legions.

They also abandoned their plan to combat the insect infestation.

The idea was nice, but reality was far too harsh.

If you can't have it, then make sure to destroy it.

An arrow shot upwards, its unavoidable brilliance striking the Yu before shattering completely.

Jebe smiled with satisfaction. This time he had finally succeeded. The Yu was far tougher than he had imagined.

Fortunately, this time it finally had an impact.

It was only thanks to Dian Wei and his men exhausting the Yu to such an extent that the Yu completely relied on the Immortal Gold as a life-saving charm, which is why Jebe's arrow was able to be effective.

Especially after being tricked by Yan Hui using Confucian classics, Yu's mental defenses were at an all-time low.

Looking at the trembling creature, which resembled someone suffering from dementia, almost all the officers present realized that this was the best time to strike.

Upon seeing this, the experts from the three empires swarmed forward, unleashing a barrage of attacks that quickly crippled the creature's body.

Even the Immortal Gold couldn't save Yu's body this time.

Zhao Yun's final blow pierced Yu's skull completely.

"Is this all settled?"

Sun Ce clutched the two large wounds on his chest. He had previously mocked Ma Chao, but now he truly understood what a terrifying opponent he was.

If Zhao Yun and the others hadn't drawn most of the fire, he wouldn't have suffered such minor injuries.

Even the wounds left by the demon were completely beyond repair; after Sun Ce used special medicine, the wounds began to scab over rapidly.

"It's not completely over yet, but we've done almost everything we can!" Zhao Yun's face was ashen. As the main force this time, he didn't have many external injuries, but he suffered mostly internal injuries.

Fortunately, their mission was completed; otherwise, Zhao Yun wouldn't have had much fighting power this time.

"die!"

Taking advantage of the moment of Yu's fall, Mu Yi activated the Rule of Death once again, spreading death throughout the entire Zerg race along the connection between Yu and the Zerg swarm.

"Ninety-nine percent of the insect infestation response has subsided!"

The technicians quickly produced tangible results, which relieved everyone; it was finally done.

Xinghan did its utmost to combat the insect plague.

Although both the Ming and Mongol Yuan dynasties were largely passive and had their own plans, the fact that both empires provided their imperial will was the greatest help they could offer.

If it were just Mu Yi alone, it would be impossible for him to fight against the insect-like rules while simultaneously manipulating the rules to kill the insects.

While the two empires may have been taking it easy, the assistance they received from the imperial will was indeed undiminished.

"Something's wrong; the swarm is fluctuating!"

The technicians suddenly shouted, and everyone's attention was once again drawn to the battlefield.

Under the rules of death, the few remaining boundary-breaking insects, along with the others, flew towards the direction of the ultimate will like moths to a flame.

"Stop them!"

Although we don't know what these insects are trying to do, stopping them is definitely the right thing to do.

"They want to sacrifice themselves so that the demons will descend once more!" Zhuge Liang realized in just a moment what these insects were up to.

Upon reaching their destination, the insects began to attack and devour each other frantically, as if they were pursuing death.

Taoist rituals, Buddhist magic circles, shamanic sacrifices, and so on, all ultimately evolved from barbarism to order, from bloodshed to civilization.

All rituals were initially filled with bloodshed and barbarity.

The elimination of bloody and barbaric ancient rituals is simply because they were too bloody and barbaric to be accepted by civilized society, and it does not mean that they were ineffective.

It could even be argued that rituals modified for the sake of civilization are actually underutilized.

In some bloody and barbaric rituals, it is actually more efficient.

This is especially true of blood sacrifices. What is now being presented to the three great empires is a truly ancient ritual.

It is a ritual left over from the previous era, the War of the Hymns, performed in a frenzied manner, a sacrifice to a designated deity.

“This seems to be some kind of ancient sacrificial ritual.” As one of the old-timers, Xuan Yuan was the first to realize what this ritual represented.

"A sacrificial ceremony?"

The people from all the schools of thought behind couldn't help but look at Xuan Yuan.

"The most primal blood sacrifice erases one's own existence in exchange for immense power..."

Xuan Yuan frowned slightly; this information seemed to have suddenly appeared in his mind.

He has no recollection of how he knew these things.

I vaguely remember that when Lao Tzu was active in the world, he seemed to have come into contact with the "Tao," which, according to our current understanding, should be the concept of sacred songs.

But he couldn't remember anything more specific.

"So, this is a sacrificial ritual? How do we break it?" Zhuge Liang asked calmly. At this moment, the focus should not be on where this thing came from, but on how to deal with it.

"It can't be solved. This kind of ritual can't be stopped. There are only two possibilities: either the sacrifice target cannot be found or it is successful."

"These insects are connected to the ultimate will of the insect plague, and we can only watch this sacrificial ritual proceed!"

"Our slaughter of the insects is actually accelerating the ritual."

Xuan Yuan gave a brief explanation, then fell into confusion again. What exactly did he see when he left Hangu Pass in the east?
"What do we do now?" Zhao Yun and the others looked a little gloomy. How come it's not over yet? They have a third life?

"A high-energy reaction is rapidly approaching; no physical form has yet appeared, but it is indeed occurring!"

The technicians' voices were simultaneously transmitted.

"No need to say anything, we've already observed that."

Zhao Yun squinted at the place where the insect plague's final will was. With the insect swarm's massive self-sacrifice, the Yu seemed to be reborn once again.

For the first time, Zhao Yun felt nauseous during battle.

The opponent is very strong and like a stubborn leech that can't be shaken off, which is really inexplicably annoying.

"A hundred birds pay homage to the phoenix!"

Under Zhao Yun's astonishing control, hundreds of phoenixes almost simultaneously struck the area of ​​the insect plague's ultimate will.

But pure violence did not cause any ripples and did not interfere with the other party's rebirth process at all.

Zhao Yun's attack even wiped out a portion of the insects, directly accelerating the arrival of the insect plague's ultimate will.

"Is there any good way?" Mu Yi asked Huang Tianji with a headache, wanting to see if there were any secret techniques in Xinghan's current storage that could be used.

"Currently, the only effective secret technique is the Candle Dragon Secret Technique, which slows down the flow of time within the final area of ​​the insect plague!" After searching for a while, Huang Tianji found a secret technique that could work.

"Use it first, and we'll see if we can delay it for a while!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Yi immediately nodded. The attitudes of the Ming and Mongol Yuan dynasties were too ambiguous, and he simply couldn't believe the two great empires.

The two great empires may be able to withstand some turmoil, but the Star River is simply not.

This time, we must nip the insect plague in the bud.

The fact that the insect plague has reached this point is largely due to the remnant soul of the Hymn. As long as they can completely destroy the opponent, even if the insect plague multiplies and expands again, they will not be in such a passive position.

Under Huang Tianji's command, the technicians quickly activated the Candle Dragon Secret Technique.

The Candle Dragon hovered over the area where the final will descended, and within its coverage, the speed of the insects became extremely slow.

Huang Tianji directly slowed down the flow of time by sixteen times, making the movements of the insects in the entire area where the final will descended as slow as snails.

Even so, these insects continued to frantically devour themselves, performing a sacrificial ritual.

The ceremony was not interrupted.

"We should be able to hold out for another three days!" Huang Tianji estimated the speed at which the insects devoured each other and finally gave a countdown.

"Three days!" Mu Yi rubbed his temples. This time was neither long nor short.

Lu Bu and others certainly won't be able to recover, but Zhao Yun and others can be restored to their peak condition. However, there are still two major empires eyeing them covetously, which is indeed difficult to deal with.

"Your Majesty, do not worry!" Bai Qi replied with a smile as he connected to the communication.

"Your Majesty, leave the cleanup here to us!" Bai Qi said confidently.

"Does Lord Wu'an already have a good plan?" Mu Yi asked with great surprise.

"Your Majesty, the swarm of insects has dispersed. The Miracle Legion and the main army are now free to disperse the Heaven and Earth Connection and launch a large-scale attack with the Miracle Legion at its core. This will surely kill these insects!"

Bai Qi's words were resounding. He was unwilling to let his army fail, so after the insect swarm was wiped out, he was eager to show the giant insect Yu what a real army was like.

"I forgot!" Mu Yi was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized.

I was so focused on Zhao Yun and the others that I almost forgot that the Miracle Legion and the main army are now free to do their work.

The situation is completely different from before.

With the combined strength of a large army, it's not a dream to crush the Yu in one blow.

"Your Majesty, could you please postpone the army's attack and allow me to negotiate with the Ming and Mongol Yuan dynasties?" Jia Xu immediately stepped forward to speak.

Now that we have a plan to eliminate the insects, let's try adding some strategy and politics later.

War is never the goal; ensuring security and then reaping more benefits is what they should be doing.

"Your humble servant seconds this!" Zhuge Liang stepped forward and echoed.

"In that case, I'll leave it to you. I'll give you one day, and then the army will immediately begin operations!"

Mu Yi was worried that things might change if he waited too long, so he only gave Jia Xu and Zhuge Liang one day.

However, Mu Yi's worries were obviously unnecessary. With Jia Xu, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Liang, Chen Gong, and Sima Yi leading the charge, they managed to deceive both the Ming Dynasty and the Mongol Yuan Dynasty in just half a day.

Using their lack of strength as an excuse, they tricked the Ming and Mongol Yuan dynasties into providing a safety net for Xinghan, hoping to get some assistance.

Upon hearing that Xinghan was willing to be at the forefront for the third time and even let them cover the losses, the two empires realized that this was giving them an opportunity to get involved in the insect plague.

The fact that Xinghan was going to such lengths had somewhat affected both empires, who thought that nipping the insect plague in the bud would be a good option for them.

But now that Xinghan has entrusted them with the ultimate responsibility, they have rekindled their desire to get their hands on this deadly weapon of the insect plague.

They had all witnessed the immense power of the insect plague; it was indeed a strategic weapon, and even without such a large-scale outbreak, it would still be of great use.

Neither the Ming Dynasty nor the Mongol Yuan Dynasty wanted to give up this opportunity. They knew that Xinghan was selling to both sides, but both sides wanted to win over Xinghan, so they actively provided assistance.

Having received benefits from both sides, Jia Xu pretended to need to consider it, and then signaled the army to move without hesitation.
