Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms
Chapter 958 Old Wine in New Bottles
Lü Bu knew some things about the Tang Dynasty.
They were all gathered together by Mu Yi to discuss intelligence about the Tang Dynasty.
One of the most prominent examples is the war between the Tang Dynasty and the Heavenly Court.
Based on some of the information provided by Xue Wanche and Wang Xuance, they deduced that the Tang Dynasty might, like the Kushan Empire, possess a power that could be enhanced through the visualization of gods and Buddhas.
This was not very obvious in Xue Wanche, but it was quite clear in Yuwen Chengdu at this moment.
The aura emanating from Yuwen Chengdu at this moment was different from before, and Lü Bu clearly sensed this change in aura.
The transformation from human to deity—Lü Bu had witnessed this transformation in the Kushan gods and Buddhas.
Yuwen Chengdu became the vessel, and at this moment, the one who controls Yuwen Chengdu is the Nine Heavens Responding to the Origin of Thunder and Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable, but the Nine Heavens Responding to the Origin of Thunder and Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable is Yuwen Chengdu.
This is a rather complex relationship, but overall, it has become significantly stronger.
"Hahahaha, let me see just how much power you have now!"
As Lu Bu felt the power emanating from the other side, he became increasingly excited. He needed such a master, such a formidable opponent.
Although it wasn't a life-or-death battle on the battlefield, this kind of fight where he could fight freely was exactly what he longed for. When facing such a worthy opponent, Lü Bu became excited.
With a muffled thud, Lü Bu was sent flying backward once again.
But Lu Bu turned back the next moment, his fighting spirit boiling, and his already terrifying aura was further condensed.
All the warriors watching the battle frowned as they stared at Lu Bu, whose aura grew increasingly terrifying.
It seems that in the last clash with the Immortal Gold, Lu Bu has made further progress and achieved substantial advancements.
"Come and fight! Unleash your full power and let me see if you are worthy of my slaying!"
Lu Bu gripped his halberd with both hands and attacked Yuwen Chengdu with frenzied intensity, his eyes brimming with excitement.
Do you even have the energy to say something like that now?
Yuwen Chengdu's voice boomed like thunder, and the phoenix-winged gilded halberd in his hand drew a massive amount of lightning as it hurtled towards Lü Bu.
Lu Bu was sent flying by such a fierce blow.
After knocking Lü Bu away with a single blow, Yuwen Chengdu's aura soared to the heavens. His third eye on his forehead opened, and a terrifying mental attack accompanied by a beam of light instantly struck Lü Bu.
Lu Bu's eyes narrowed, his divine will emanating from his body, and two golden and red dragons faintly emerged from his halberd, biting the blade.
The beam of light emitted by the Heavenly Eye was easily cleaved in two by the Fangtian Halberd, with one half directly hitting Ma Chao and Luo Cheng, who were engaged in battle.
The two managed to escape from the pillar of light in a disheveled state. They were locked in a fierce battle and were almost overwhelmed by the sudden attack.
After realizing it was the aftermath of the fight between Lü Bu and Yuwen Chengdu, both men instantly lost interest in the battle.
The masters were fighting fiercely, but for a while, the two of them found their battle tedious and tasteless, completely losing their will to fight.
"It's a draw today, but we'll fight again another day!"
Luo Cheng voluntarily stopped fighting, but his gaze bypassed Yuwen Chengdu and landed on Jiang Song and Zhao Yun. For a general like him who used a spear, the battle between these two masters of spear fighting was more attractive.
Ma Chao and Luo Cheng both stopped fighting and returned to their respective camps to observe the battle.
"It seems that Lord Wen is getting serious!" Guan Yu said silently, watching the ripples gradually appearing on Lü Bu's body.
Zhang Fei nodded, wanting to see if Lü Bu had any way to deal with his preparations.
He concealed the immortal golden nature within his arms, using the unity of essence, energy, and spirit to drive his power, achieving a level of strength that broke through three boundaries in a localized area.
It can be said that, in terms of just his arms, Zhang Fei has actually stepped into the threshold of breaking through the three realms.
This is something that Zhang Fei researched and developed.
Single-path martial arts cultivation is also a form of partial cultivation, so Zhang Fei simply focused all his breakthrough points on his arms, achieving a partial breakthrough of three realms. This not only preserved his original path of cultivating three paths simultaneously, but also resulted in a surge in his own strength.
"Finally serious, huh? I thought that guy was just saying it for show," Zhang Fei muttered to himself, looking in Lu Bu's direction.
He was looking forward to seeing the power that Lü Bu would display next.
"Since you're using the power of gods and Buddhas to deal with me, then I'll use the same method to deal with you!"
Lu Bu gripped his halberd with both hands to block Yuwen Chengdu's attack. The halberd spirit that had been faintly visible transformed into a golden dragon that appeared on the halberd, biting the blade tightly. Blood-red dragons of blood energy and golden dragons of internal energy also appeared on Lu Bu's body.
Three beams of starlight fell from the sky: Greedy Wolf, Seven Killings, and Broken Army—the three most common ominous stars—simultaneously radiating terrifying light.
"I've been wondering what kind of power your Tang Dynasty's visualization of gods and Buddhas is, but I've discovered that it's actually a power we've been familiar with for a long time!"
Lu Bu remained expressionless. In truth, they had always been engaged in external wars, so they rarely had the opportunity to fight with all their might on their own soil. As a result, they had subconsciously overlooked one thing.
That means they can also achieve things like the cooperation of heaven and earth, because in a sense they are also gods and Buddhas, they are gods and Buddhas appointed by the Star River.
Unlike other mythologies, Mu Yi is the master of heaven and earth, the master of the starry sky mythology, and the emperor of all the stars in the heavens.
Therefore, the starlight bestowed upon Lü Bu and others was actually a form of deity or Buddha.
However, because its foundation is not deep enough, it will become ineffective in most cases when it leaves this world.
However, in the previous wars, Mu Yi filled these gaps with the will of the empire, so much so that everyone became accustomed to the coverage of the will of the empire and forgot that they themselves, within the territory of the Star River, possessed a destiny equivalent to that of gods and Buddhas, which would attract the cooperation of heaven and earth.
Lu Bu was born with three major astrological signs: Greedy Wolf, Seven Killings, and Broken Army. These three ominous stars complemented each other, making them Lu Bu's unique divine authority.
The star deity who governs killing, war, and chaos.
"Using their own methods against them, what do you think of my move?" Lü Bu laughed loudly, and with his essence, energy, and spirit united, he drew upon the power of the three stars to unleash an extremely powerful attack on Yuwen Chengdu.
He leaped into the air, making no unnecessary movements, and swung his sword with great force, causing the void to sway.
The starlight stretched to over a hundred feet under this attack, and even spread out crimson flame shockwaves, which were the aftershocks of the attack cutting through the air.
Yuwen Chengdu gripped his Phoenix Wing Gold Halberd tightly.
He finally realized that the guy in front of him was a monster, an absolute monster, just like Li Yuanba.
He was strong, very strong, extremely strong, but not invincible. After being resurrected, he made great progress and made countless preparations for fighting Li Yuanba again.
Although Lü Bu is strong, he can still fight against him!
He was no longer the Yuwen Chengdu who had been torn apart by Li Yuanba. Now he possessed great power and was no longer in the despair of being powerless to resist.
A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, and the raging thunder shattered the flowing galaxy. Splashes of flame spread in all directions, and all the realm-breaking experts retreated another ten miles.
They all knew very well that the battle had escalated.
"What is Lü Bu doing?" Zhang Fei stared at Lü Bu with some doubt. You might say Lü Bu wasn't trying his best, but he was already going to be evenly matched with Yuwen Chengdu on the field.
But everyone present at Xinghan had witnessed Lü Bu's performance in slaying the insect plague. Even if the situation was special at the time, in the current situation, it's clear that Lü Bu wasn't putting in his best effort.
"Is astrology really that powerful?"
Guan Yu stroked his beard, somewhat puzzled, as seven beams of starlight gathered in his hand, forming the shape of a green dragon.
Before this, Guan Yu only regarded it as an honor and never thought about it in that way.
He could resonate with seven of the twenty-eight constellations that represented the Azure Dragon, but he didn't feel nearly as powerful as Lü Bu was at that moment.
Zhang Fei also gathered starlight with a puzzled expression; the one in his hand was also the Broken Army Star.
Mu Yi had previously bestowed upon him a copy of this item, which could be considered a more prestigious certificate of military merit than a noble title.
However, Zhang Fei was quite puzzled to find that Lu Bu actually had the Greedy Wolf, the Breaking Army, and the Seven Kills combined in one.
"Why does Lü Bu have three stars? Doesn't that mean I, Old Zhang, am under his command?"
"Yide, have you forgotten? This Lü Bu is the father-in-law of the Emperor of Xinghan!" Huang Zhong reminded Zhang Fei when he saw Zhang Fei's indignation.
"That Lu Bu!"
Zhang Fei muttered, but had nothing to say. Lü Bu's contributions were obvious to all, and coupled with his status and position, he was indeed a cut above his sworn brothers, the vassal kings.
"We have neglected the study of astrology in the past, and it seems we have been blinded by a leaf. General Lu Junyi seems to have some knowledge of this, and I'm afraid we will have to trouble him again later!"
Huang Zhong turned his gaze to Lu Junyi. Others might not know, but how could an old backbone like Huang Zhong not know the origin of the star's destiny?
Wasn't it the 108 heroes of Liangshan who contributed to it back then?
The Black Whirlwind Li Kui, who survived being shot through the chest by Huang Zhong, left a deep impression on him.
Although Huang Zhong had nine ways to defeat Li Kui, the Black Whirlwind, given his current strength, it was still quite surprising at the time.
Especially the blessing that star destiny bestows upon individual generals is undoubtedly a powerful tool.
Previously, everyone regarded it as an honor, and no one really put in the effort for it.
Or rather, before encountering these people from the Tang Dynasty, the generals and officers of Xinghan had a very shallow understanding of astrology and completely overlooked this extremely promising force.
"General Huang is too kind. It is my honor to be able to answer your questions!" Lu Junyi replied with a smile.
With so many people watching him, he was a little flattered. He did have some knowledge of astrology, but to be honest, before today, he hadn't taken this ability too seriously.
Although their power system was similar to that of the Tang Dynasty, their starting point was too low, and they didn't even form a system.
To put it more bluntly, even the size of Xinghan before might not have been able to support such power.
After exchanging dozens of blows with Yuwen Chengdu, Lü Bu's previously high morale faltered, and he stopped fighting, looking directly at Yuwen Chengdu with a thoughtful expression.
"General Lü, it's best not to embarrass yourself by using your last-minute preparations!" Yuwen Chengdu could sense that Lü Bu had just used him to test his new abilities.
Its crude usage method greatly displeased Yuwen Chengdu.
"I did underestimate you."
Lu Bu looked at Yuwen Chengdu and said solemnly.
“You are not outstanding in any one aspect, but you are not weak in any one aspect. You also combine the power of gods and Buddhas, which is comparable to the combat power of the three realms. There are no more than a handful of people who can defeat you.”
"Therefore, from now on, I'm going to give it my all!"
Yuwen Chengdu was somewhat surprised. In the Tang Dynasty, there was only one and a half people who could defeat him; the others were all his defeated opponents.
One is Li Yuanba, and the other is half Pei Yuanqing.
Thinking of Pei Yuanqing, Yuwen Chengdu gritted his teeth. That bastard had never faced him in a direct, peak battle; he always waited for Pei Yuanqing to come out with low health and then snatched the spoils.
"General Lü, defeat me first!" Yuwen Chengdu said with a faint smile.
In martial arts, there is no right or wrong, only victory or defeat.
"Defeat you?" Lu Bu crossed his arms, holding his halberd in the middle. A semi-solid phantom about a hundred feet tall appeared behind Lu Bu, and then solidified completely.
Yuwen Chengdu's expression changed slightly. He had just used this move before, so how could he not be familiar with it?
However, the next moment, the hundred-foot-tall solid golden appearance began to shrink at a visible speed, and in the blink of an eye, it merged with Lu Bu.
Yuwen Chengdu's expression changed drastically. The speed was too fast; he didn't even have time to interrupt.
In terms of fusion speed alone, it is almost dozens of times faster than his.
However, Yuwen Cheng was not alarmed. The fast fusion speed did not mean anything; it only meant that Lu Bu's divine will was strong.
Yuwen Chengdu has already experienced this.
At that moment, Lü Bu looked as if he had been cast from molten iron.
Similarly, the moment Lu Bu compressed all his internal energy into his body, Yuwen Chengdu's sense of threat rose to its limit.
Sulinara couldn't help but open her eyes, looking at Lu Bu's back, but she couldn't see Lu Bu's shadow at all in her future vision.
At this moment, Lü Bu was completely in control of his own future.
"After lying down for so long, my body felt like it was rusting. This feeling is really great!"
Lu Bu gripped his halberd tightly, feeling the terrifying power within his body. Unlike the previous times when he had borrowed external forces, this time it was entirely Lu Bu's own power.
He forcibly plundered the surrounding spiritual energy with his divine will, and then perfectly controlled spiritual energy that was a hundred times greater than his own.
Lu Bu can usually unleash several times his own power by relying on divine will, and when Lu Bu's basic qualities improve, the power he can unleash will only increase accordingly.
This is also a major reason why Lü Bu was able to dominate the world; his invincible mentality allowed him to unleash explosive power.
Even though Lü Bu had suffered defeats, he was able to rise from those defeats.
"Don't die! If you die under my halberd, there's no way to revive you!" Lu Bu roared as he swept his halberd across the ground.
No fancy moves, just super-powerful basic attacks.
Everything in front of Lü Bu was instantly annihilated; the terrifying slash covered an area spanning several miles directly in front of him.
Everything affected was erased, like a pencil drawing being wiped clean with an eraser. (End of Chapter)
