Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms
Chapter 957 Unparalleled Fighting Spirit
Faced with Li Yuanba's willfulness, Qin Qiong felt helpless. He knew that Li Yuanba had suffered a loss at the hands of Yu Juluo, which made Li Yuanba very irritable when facing divine cultivators.
However, Li Yuanba was still young at the time, and Yu Juluo was the last dance of his life, which made Li Yuanba resentful ever since.
It's like being bitten by a snake once and being afraid of a rope for ten years.
Ordinary divine cultivators are one thing, but this one is clearly different.
"How about I do it?" Jiang Song stepped forward and volunteered.
After all, Qin Qiong had already taken to the field once. Letting Qin Qiong go again would make it seem like the Tang Dynasty had no one else to rely on.
Jiang Song, courtesy name Yongnian, was Luo Cheng's half-brother. Known as the Divine Spear General, the number one Qi cultivator in the Tang Dynasty, and hailed as the unparalleled master of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, he wielded the Eight Treasures Exquisite Spear and possessed unparalleled martial arts skills.
"Alright!" Qin Qiong nodded. Jiang Song's strength was unfathomable. He had not yet revealed any other abilities in recent years, so he should be able to fight him.
Lu Bu frowned when he saw Jiang Song appear.
It wasn't for any other reason than that Jiang Song reminded him so much of Zhao Yun.
He wanted to spar with a master he had never met before, and didn't want to get entangled with Zhao Yun.
"Zhao Zilong, how about you do this?" Lü Bu turned and called out to Zhao Yun.
"I am indeed very interested in a master of the gun!" Zhao Yun didn't care and stepped forward with his Dragon Gallant Spear.
"You think I'm not strong enough?" Jiang Song squinted at Lü Bu, a murderous glint naturally appearing in his eyes.
He felt that Lü Bu had underestimated him.
"You may catch my eye, but you are definitely not the strongest among you!" Lu Bu disdained to lie and directly admitted that he had underestimated Jiang Song.
"Then let's meet Zhenzhang!"
As soon as Jiang Song finished speaking, he unleashed his unparalleled marksmanship – the Five-Point Shot.
It is divided into two styles: the Spraying Style and the Splashing Style. The Spraying Style can break through all spear techniques in the world, while the Splashing Style can quickly kill the strongest people in the world. It is one of the most unparalleled spear techniques.
The gun moved with incredible speed; before the words even finished, the gun had already reached Lu Bu's face much faster than the sound of it.
The spear tip rained down on Lü Bu like a storm.
Lu Bu didn't even glance at Jiang Song, his eyes fixed on Li Yuanba. He had a premonition that Li Yuanba's small, thin body contained terrifying power.
He was very curious about Li Yuanba and wanted to see just how much power Li Yuanba possessed.
But this disregard only made Jiang Song angrier, and he increased his spear speed even further, intending to kill Lü Bu right there.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
A series of spear shadows blocked Lu Bu's path, and Jiang Song's proud rapid attack was completely blocked by a silver spear.
"General, there's no need to be angry. Marquis Wen simply feels that I am more suitable to fight you!"
Zhao Yun appeared in front of Lü Bu, blocking all of Jiang Song's attacks.
Jiang Song changed his spear stance to a sweeping style, which could break all spear techniques in the world. He planned to defeat Zhao Yun quickly and then teach Lü Bu a lesson.
But to Jiang Song's surprise, Zhao Yun blocked all of his attacks this time as well.
His spear, which was said to be able to break through all spear techniques in the world, was completely blocked.
Zhao Yun also became interested. Jiang Song's spear skills gave him the feeling that they surpassed Tong Yuan's, so he did not hesitate to take the initiative to attack.
A flash of silver light appeared in the void, and in the next instant, Zhao Yun, who was still hundreds of steps away holding a spear, was already close to Jiang Song. The distance between Zhao Yun and Jiang Song seemed to be distorted in some way. Even with Jiang Song's eyesight, he could only see a small dot, a distortion between infinity and extreme closeness.
Jiang Song remained calm and made no move to dodge. He swept his spear horizontally, directly deflecting the silver light, and then the spear in his hand seemed to stretch infinitely, directly stabbing towards Zhao Yun!
The tips of the spears clashed, both having anticipated each other's movements perfectly, and for a moment they were evenly matched.
Both were intrigued and displayed a strong fighting spirit.
Jiang Song's expression turned serious, his anger subsided, and he looked at Zhao Yun with a more solemn expression.
They were not the weaklings he had anticipated, but true strongmen.
Jiang Song lost interest in bothering Lü Bu and shifted his attention entirely to Zhao Yun.
"I am Jiang Song from the Great Tang Dynasty. I humbly request your guidance, General!" Jiang Song announced his name.
"Xinghan, Zhao Yun, Zhao Zilong, it is truly an honor to fight alongside you today!" Zhao Yun replied politely.
"Zhao Zilong?"
Jiang Song was speechless, looking Zhao Yun up and down. He had been angered by Lü Bu earlier, but now he saw that Zhao Yun was indeed as heroic and extraordinary as described in the book.
"I have long heard that General Zhao studied under the spear master Tong Yuan. Today I am honored to learn from him. I hope you will not hesitate to teach me!"
Jiang Song, with an air of arrogance, produced a short spear in his hand. This was his self-created "Mother and Son Spears," a set of dual spear techniques. The two spears were wielded, one long and one short, with their ends connected by a hooked chain. This spear technique was both cunning and overt, and was one of the strongest hidden spear techniques.
Since the speed of his gun had no effect on Zhao Yun, Jiang Song immediately thought of using his skills to find out the truth.
With two spears in hand, Jiang Song launched a fierce attack without any hesitation. The two spears, one long and one short, were like needles hidden in cotton, aiming to find the vital points. Even Zhao Yun was a little overwhelmed.
Seeing Zhao Yun being suppressed by Jiang Song, Lü Bu snorted coldly. Another reason he didn't like fighting Zhao Yun was that Zhao Yun could never unleash his full strength.
He clearly had the ability to compete for the title of the best in the world, but he often failed to use it. Lu Bu was helpless about this and was utterly speechless about people like Zhao Yun.
In Lü Bu's eyes, performing only 10 out of 100 of his strength was considered an abnormal performance, performing 20 out of 100 was considered a normal performance, and performing beyond his level required performing 100 out of 100.
Someone like Zhao Yun, who only uses half his strength, is purely second-rate. However, Zhao Yun can fight anyone to a draw, and his strength fluctuates, which makes Lü Bu have no interest in Zhao Yun at all.
Lu Bu had assumed that Jiang Song and Zhao Yun were so similar that they would be evenly matched, but he was surprised that Jiang Song could perform normally.
However, Lü Bu kept his eyes on Li Yuanba. Li Yuanba got a little angry from Lü Bu's stare and picked up the Golden Hammer, ready to fight.
He dislikes divine cultivators, but that doesn't mean he's afraid of them.
The fish that caused him the last trouble had already been torn in two.
But even after Yu Juluo died, he was able to emerge from his corpse and deliver a fatal blow, a memory that Li Yuanba still vividly remembers.
"King Zhao, how about I fight in your place?"
Just as Li Yuanba was filled with rage, a figure appeared behind him and slowly spoke.
“You…” Li Yuanba turned around and looked at the person behind him. Although he was his defeated opponent, he really couldn’t see through him after the other party came back to life.
The most fatal flaw was that after his rebirth, the opponent's inner energy transformed into lightning, a terrifying and ferocious force that always made him less confident when facing Yuwen Chengdu. "Then I'll leave it to you!" Qin Qiong readily agreed.
Yuwen Chengdu, the former number one warrior of the Sui Dynasty, now serves the Tang Dynasty. Although he usually keeps a low profile, his fighting ability is indeed top-notch.
While people might mention Qin Qiong, Li Yuanba, and Jiang Song when discussing the pinnacle of spirit and energy, Li Yuanba is undoubtedly number one in overall combat prowess, and Yuwen Chengdu is certainly second.
As for Qin Qiong, he was more skilled in military strategy, but he was not the best in one-on-one combat in the Tang Dynasty.
Yuwen Chengdu was ten feet tall, with a waist ten spans wide, tiger-like eyes and dragon-like eyebrows. He held a phoenix-winged gilded halberd in his hand, and he was extraordinary just by looking at him.
"Yuwen Chengdu, please enlighten me, General Lü!"
Yuwen Chengdu strode forward, thunder rumbling around him. The mere release of his aura caused dark clouds to gather and thunder to rumble overhead.
Lu Bu revealed a hint of interest. The other party's blood and qi were as powerful as a dragon soaring, and his inner energy was as unfathomable as an abyss. However, heavenly lightning accompanied his every move, as if heaven and earth were working together.
If he wasn't mistaken, the other party, like Li Fenfeng, was able to wield the rules of thunder, but was far more powerful than Li Fenfeng.
"Nine Heavens Responding to the Origin of Thunder, Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable!"
A semi-solidified form, nearly a hundred feet tall, appeared behind Yuwen Chengdu.
"Breaking through both the essence and energy realms? Interesting!"
Lu Bu revealed an interested expression. The person opposite him was truly extraordinary. He was not like Hua Xiong, who had only a half-baked dual-breakthrough ability, but a super-strong dual-breakthrough ability.
Individually, his vital energy might not be as great as Dian Wei's or Zhao Yun's, but when combined, it's truly remarkable; he's definitely a powerful figure.
Moreover, the thunderous aura emanating from the outside world was awe-inspiring, and Lü Bu was very interested in such an opponent.
Seeing that the hundred-foot-tall thunderous god-like dharma image behind Yuwen Chengdu had already solidified.
At this moment, Yuwen Chengdu's already heroic and extraordinary face, set against the backdrop of thunderous radiance, also displayed a transcendent divinity.
"Hahaha, you're qualified!"
Lu Bu spurred his horse, Red Hare, and appeared directly in front of Yuwen Chengdu as if in a flash, halberd slashing down.
Lu Bu's unleashed divine will at its peak enabled him to display unimaginable fighting prowess. His hundred-foot-tall appearance was pierced through like paper when facing Lu Bu's halberd.
Seeing Lü Bu cleave through the body of the inner energy avatar with his halberd, Yuwen Chengdu's brows furrowed instantly, and the inner energy giant unleashed thunder, charging madly towards Lü Bu.
However, at this moment, Lu Bu did not dodge or evade at all. He directly withstood the crackling thunder, and then shook his halberd, directly knocking Yuwen Chengdu out of the Dharma Image.
A huge hole instantly appeared in the chest of the Hundred-Zhang Dharma Image.
"I'm already tired of this kind of thing called Dharma Form!" Lu Bu sneered as he casually unleashed a slash of internal energy towards Yuwen Chengdu.
He could sense a threat from Yuwen Chengdu; the other party was definitely not just at this level.
If you dare to hide anything from him, then let him put you in a tough spot and see what you're really hiding.
The massive internal energy dharma image did not dissipate; instead, it slammed down towards Lu Bu's body with a punch. The extremely high speed combined with the dharma image's enormous size created a terrifying explosion as it hurtled towards Lu Bu.
Lu Bu disdainfully swung his halberd in retaliation. The giant fist of the Dharma Image, which was much larger than Lu Bu's entire body, was cracked and split open when it collided with the halberd.
Then Lu Bu unleashed his power again, sweeping across the area with a single, violent strike. His ferocious strength and momentum shattered a large portion of the Dharma Image.
But the next moment, the wind and clouds surged, and the Dharma image transformed into a tide flowing towards Yuwen Chengdu.
A colossal inner energy giant, nearly reaching the sky and as tall as a mountain, flowed directly into Yuwen Chengdu's body with a roar.
As the Dharma form shrank, its originally enormous aura began to rise once again.
The scene was earth-shattering, with mountains collapsing and the ground splitting open – that's exactly what it was like. The terrifying aura even caused the surrounding officers and soldiers to consciously keep their distance.
Being able to compress a giant of internal energy, hundreds of feet tall, into one's body is enough to qualify one as a master, no matter where one is.
Even Pei Yuanqing and Dian Wei, who were fighting on the ground, felt the terrifying aura emanating from Yuwen Chengdu.
"Hmph!" Pei Yuanqing snorted coldly. As a skilled cultivator, he couldn't possibly be as stylish as that show-off Yuwen Chengdu.
As someone who was on par with Yuwen Chengdu, his dislike for Yuwen Chengdu was almost palpable.
Dian Wei glanced at Lü Bu, then waved to Pei Yuanqing.
"Come again!"
"Come on then, I'll keep you company to the very end today!"
As Pei Yuanqing spoke, he rushed toward Dian Wei, and the two began wrestling on the ground again.
As Yuwen Chengdu's opponent, Lü Bu glanced at Yuwen Chengdu, whose hair moved without wind and shimmered with thunderous light, and then tumbled off Red Hare.
An opponent who can merge with one's own Dharma form deserves some respect.
Red Hare's greater role is on the battlefield. In such one-on-one duels, its existence is actually more about showing off its cool factor.
Even if Red Hare were to break through the boundary, it would be the same; for them, it would just be a matter of taking care of it casually.
Lu Bu gripped his halberd with both hands, not needing any special halberd techniques, and simply slashed with great force. The fierce power was unleashed on Yuwen Chengdu, and the raging force created shockwaves in the air around them.
Yuwen Chengdu also wielded his Phoenix Wing Golden Halberd with the same wild abandon, the two weapons clashing wildly in mid-air, producing countless explosions.
Although Lü Bu was being suppressed, it was obvious to everyone that he wasn't putting in his best effort at all. Instead, he was enjoying being suppressed. What was even more dangerous was that Lü Bu was rapidly becoming stronger under this suppression.
"Yuwen Chengdu, is this all the strength you have?" Lu Bu roared, brandishing his halberd. The clang of metal against metal carried a terrifying force as it smashed out. For the first time in the clash, Yuwen Chengdu's Phoenix Wing Golden Halberd was smashed open.
"What a monster! But this is enough!" Yuwen Chengdu was also enraged, and a lightning-infused eye suddenly appeared on his forehead.
The moment the eye of the sky appeared, Lü Bu was struck as if by lightning, and was then sent flying by Yuwen Chengdu's attack.
At this moment, Yuwen Chengdu was filled with the same aura they had previously seen on Xue Wanche.
Yuwen Chengdu was stronger than Xue Wanche, and Lu Bu also sensed the aura flowing from Yuwen Chengdu at this moment.
"Your power originates from killing gods and replacing them with your own. Is the 'Nine Heavens Responding to the Origin of Thunder and Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable' that you shouted before your current power?"
Lu Bu stopped flying backward, fully understanding Yuwen Chengdu's current state. Yuwen Chengdu was the god or Buddha crowned by the Tang Dynasty using the remains of dead gods and Buddhas.
(The historical version of Qin Qiong, the fictional version of Jiang Song, the world's number one version of Li Yuanba, the Nine Heavens Responding to the Origin of Thunder and Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable version of Yuwen Chengdu, and the Nezha version of Pei Yuanqing) (End of this chapter)
