Chapter 1002 The Heavenly Emperor's Incarnation, Breaking Through the City at Light Speed ​​(4K3)

At the top of the cliff, the night wind howled.

After leaving the elephant enclosure, Su Yao came here and felt the surging power within him all by himself.

After breaking through the barrier, he felt incredibly wonderful. It was as if the whole world had become clear, and his body felt like it had been reborn, with every cell cheering and jumping for joy.

He could hear the whispers of the soldiers in the distance, feel every subtle change in the night wind, and even sense the flow of blood within his body.

"Could this be extraordinary power?"

Su Yao clenched his fist, his knuckles cracking crisply, his muscles gleaming metallically in the moonlight.

If we say that his power increase after activating his Musou Awakening was still within the limits of human capabilities...

This time, his unparalleled awakening after breaking through the limits is beyond human capability.

Especially now, as long as he focuses on his own body, he can vaguely see a golden light flowing under his skin.

After the breakthrough, the massive amount of experience he had previously mobilized had become a part of his body, flowing through him like blood.

Is this internal energy? Is it magic? Or is it just energy?
Su Yao didn't quite understand.

He had no idea that he had bypassed the realm that ordinary people needed countless years of body tempering and foundation building to break through, relying solely on his unparalleled awakened regenerative abilities.
However, even if you don't understand the principle, it doesn't matter, because Su Yao only needs to close his eyes and feel the flow of energy in his body to clearly know that this power has helped him reshape his body.

On the system panel, the attribute values ​​that were previously capped at 200 have successfully broken through the original limit, and a golden "+" sign has appeared after them. What surprised Su Yao even more was that a brand new talent had appeared in the talent bar - [Transcendent Body].

[Superhuman Physique: The character's physical functions have surpassed human limits, permanently increasing attributes such as recovery, stamina, strength, and speed by 300%.]

"300%?!"

"No wonder he wasn't taken down immediately after the awakening was unleashed this time."

"This was a good deal!"

Su Yao's eyes shone brightly as he tried to throw a punch with all his might, which produced a loud bang in the air.

The power of that punch was enough to shatter rocks!

"but."

Su Yao frowned slightly, feeling the restless energy within his body, and even sensing the faint flow of energy.

Although the breakthrough was successful, the body does not seem to have fully adapted to the change.

"It seems I need to spend some time stabilizing my cultivation level."

Therefore, Su Yao knew without a doubt that he needed a lot of energy, or rather, experience.

But for now, I'll take a nap first.
After getting a general idea of ​​my physical condition, a wave of intense fatigue washed over me.

The powerful stamina gained after the breakthrough finally reached its limit, unable to withstand the massive consumption of the ultimate Musou Awakening skill.

However, compared to before when he would shut down and close his eyes precisely after 3 minutes, he can now last for 10 minutes and even try to resist the drowsiness.
However, the longer he struggled, the more his physical strength was depleted exponentially. In the end, before he could no longer hold on, Su Yao found a comfortable and safe place on the mountaintop where no one would disturb him, sat cross-legged, and voluntarily entered a state of hibernation.

This sleep lasted a full twelve hours.

During his absence and rest, his legendary performance spread throughout the military.

The soldiers and prisoners of war in the entire Han army camp were engulfed in a night of madness.

"A miracle! That was a real miracle!"

"The general actually subdued that herd of elephants all by himself, with his bare hands!"

"I saw him shining like the sun in the sky with my own eyes!"

"This is divine protection!"

Some soldiers were shouting and gesturing wildly.

"What divine protection? In my opinion, the General is simply a god descended from heaven!"

"Exactly! Just think about it, those Kushan war elephants they boasted about were so powerful, but they were like kittens in front of the Great General!"

"Hahaha, those Kushan captives are terrified now, kneeling on the ground and calling for the gods!"

Around the campfire, the soldiers excitedly discussed the miracles of the day. Meanwhile, in the prisoner-of-war camp, the Kushans were deeply shocked.

“That red-robed general… he must be an incarnation of Shiva,” an elderly elephant handler murmured to himself.

“No, he’s more like the reincarnation of Indra,” another prisoner retorted. “Only a great god could possess such power.”

Inside the central command tent, the generals were equally excited.

"Tell me, what's the situation with the General this time?"

"I've never seen anything like this in my entire life."

"He's so incredibly damn good!"

Zhang Fei stared wide-eyed, slapped his thigh, and asked in a loud and boisterous voice.

Guan Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded cautiously, saying, "Indeed, Your Highness's breakthrough this time is extraordinary. The ancient overlord's lifting of the cauldron is like child's play in front of Your Highness now. What exactly is the reason for this change?"

"If Your Highness is unwilling to elaborate, there is really no need for us to delve into it. We must know that heavenly secrets cannot be revealed."

Jia Xu stroked his beard and interrupted them:
"But whatever it is, this is a huge boon for us. The stronger His Highness is, the easier our battles will be!"

Guo Jia smiled and echoed, "Wenhe is absolutely right. The Kushans' proud war elephant force has been defeated by us. Now that the General has gained this divine power, victory in this battle is certain!"

However, mere victory is no longer enough to satisfy the appetites of these clever people.

After learning that Su Yao possessed such power, Jia Xu and Guo Jia discussed the matter extensively and decided to make full use of this miracle.

Internally, they propagated the idea that Su Yao was a god descended from heaven, sent by destiny to conquer all directions, thus boosting morale; externally, they used prisoners to deify Su Yao and undermine the enemy's fighting spirit.

The next day at noon, when Su Yao returned from the mountaintop, the entire camp erupted in excitement.

When the soldiers saw him, they were all filled with awe and respect, their eyes filled with reverence and admiration.

"Your Highness, you are back!"

Lu Su was the first to step forward, his eyes gleaming with excitement:
"The soldiers are all praising your heroic deeds yesterday, and their morale is soaring!"

Su Yao smiled slightly, tossed his tattered armor to him, and said, "Very well, then let everyone get ready. We'll set off for Yucheng City today."

"So fast?" Lu Su was somewhat surprised. "Your Highness, don't you need to rest a little longer?"

"No need."

A glint of light flashed in Su Yao's eyes:

"Now is the time to reap the rewards!"

Soon, the Han army was fully prepared to set off.

The army assembled at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, ready to enter the mountains.

At that moment, Su Yao received another unexpected gain.

Before the army's ranks, five high-ranking Kushan generals, captured the previous day, came forward, knelt down, and kissed his boots.
"Great God of War, Supreme Deity, please forgive our mistakes of yesterday. We are willing to repent and submit to you, and swear to serve you to the death!"

Su Yao raised an eyebrow and looked at Lu Su beside him: "What's going on with them?"

Lu Su explained with a hint of excitement, "Your Highness, just last night, these Kushan generals were so impressed by the miracles you performed that they are willing to lead their troops to submit to you and help us conquer the Kushans!"

That's only natural. Last night, Su Yao's taming of the war elephant was witnessed by countless eyes, and with the covert efforts of Jia Xu and others, Su Yao's prestige is soaring.

In their view, the person who could make the dark night sky shine for him could only be the god Indra.

The only question is whether he is a person blessed by the gods or an incarnation of Indra himself on earth.

But whatever it is.
"The foolish Kushan king dares to oppose you; he has only himself to bring about his own destruction. We are willing to be your henchmen, and to conquer all the mortal realm for you!"

"Oh? To take over the entire mortal realm?"

"Yes."

The leading Kushan general, looking excited, said:

"How can our tiny Ferghana be worthy of your divine might? We are willing to be your guides, helping you to take the Kushan capital and make that false king kneel at your feet!"

"In fact, with just a nod from you, we can conquer all those false kings in the world who refuse to submit to your rule!"

"That's it"

Su Yao closed his eyes.

As these people took their oaths, he felt a surge of power in an instant.

This was not something like him being overwhelmed with emotion; it was genuine power.

With the submission of these people, his power increased. Although it was not as much as the experience points he gained from personally killing, the surrender of this army of over ten thousand still greatly increased his power.

"Good good!"

Su Yao opened his eyes, laughed loudly, and grabbed the surrendered general, saying, "Since you have this awareness, then come with me to the expedition!"

Therefore, after incorporating this group of Kushan generals, the Han army was in high spirits and marched in a mighty force toward Yucheng, the capital of Dayuan.

Along the way, Su Yao rode his newly tamed war elephant, Baruch, at the very front of the procession, looking majestic and imposing. The Kushan generals who had submitted followed closely behind, spreading the news of Su Yao's miracles to the tribes and towns along the route.

The news spread like wildfire, and the Dayuan tribes along the way either scattered or surrendered, and the Han army's advance was no longer hindered.

Thus, when the Han army arrived at the walls of Yucheng four days later, the city was filled with panic.

"Report! The Han army has arrived at the city walls, with a force of approximately 50,000 and dozens of war elephants!"

Even our elephant king, Baruch,

The messenger's voice abruptly stopped as he stared in horror at the formidable army below the city.

General Suren stood atop the city wall, his face ashen. After his humiliating escape yesterday, he had immediately ordered the city gates to be closed, preparing for a desperate defense.

However, when he saw the troops below the city, his last shred of hope vanished.

"General," the lieutenant's voice trembled, "those...those men in front, they're all our troops!"

That's right.

The Kushan soldiers who surrendered under Su Yao had extraordinary morale, and Su Yao did not waste it. He directly had them line up at the front, carrying their own army's flags, and openly displayed these surrendered soldiers' formations.

"Traitors, they're all traitors!"

General Suren clenched his fists tightly, furious.

It's ironic that he had previously felt heartbroken and regretful for the loss of those generals who had loyally followed him.

Unexpectedly, those people are not only alive, but also standing majestically in front of the Han army, wearing brand-new armor.

"General, what should we do now?" the new king of Dayuan asked in a trembling voice. This puppet king, who had just been placed on the throne by the Kushan Empire, was now completely at a loss.

General Suren took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. He looked around; the soldiers on the city walls all had fear and wavering in their eyes. He knew that if he couldn't stabilize morale, the city might not even last a day.

"Pass down the order," Suren said in a deep voice, "Anyone who dares to surrender will be executed on the spot! The city has plenty of food and supplies. If we hold out for another ten days, Prince Botiao's reinforcements will arrive!"

"Ten days. Ten days"

However, no sooner had he finished speaking than a commotion arose below the city. A path slowly parted in the Han army formation, and a general in red robes rode out on a massive war elephant. That war elephant was none other than Baruch, the former King of Elephants, now following Su Yao obediently, like a tamed domestic animal.

"General Suren!" Su Yao's voice boomed like thunder beneath the city walls, "You have nowhere to escape! Open the gates and surrender, and I may spare your life!"

An uproar erupted among the defenders on the city walls, with many beginning to whisper amongst themselves. General Suren's face was ashen; he knew he had to do something to restore morale.

"Fire!" he roared. "Shoot that arrogant Han Chinese to death!"

That's what they say, but General Suren knew very well that they couldn't shoot at that distance.

His order to fire arrows was merely a statement of his stance.

However, the next moment, something shocking happened to him.

The archers on the city wall had just drawn their bows when Su Yao on the elephant's back launched a counterattack, arriving first despite being behind.

shhhhh--

Several whooshing sounds were heard as the archers on the city wall fell with a cry of pain.

General Suren stared in disbelief at the scene before him—the archers were struck in the wrists by stones thrown by Su Yao the instant they drew their bows!

"How is this possible?!"

That distance is at least three hundred paces!

"Do you see that—General Suren!"

At that moment, the surrendered generals seized the opportunity to shout towards the city wall:
"Before you stands the incarnation of Indra, the God of God! All resistance is futile! Surrender at once, or divine punishment will descend and you will all be reduced to dust!"

Upon hearing this, the soldiers defending the city walls paled. Seeing their morale wavering, General Suren shouted sternly, "Stop talking nonsense! This is nothing but Han sorcery! Hold the city, reinforcements will surely arrive!"

"In that case."

Su Yao reached out and picked up the lance hanging on the war elephant, then gave a soft shout:
"Die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the huge lance flew out of his hand.

Under the blazing sun, Su Yao's lance slashed through the sky like lightning, shooting straight at the city wall with a piercing whistling sound.

General Suren's pupils contracted sharply, and he instinctively dodged to the side, but his movements were as slow as a tortoise under Su Yao's swift attack.
"No!"

"Pfft" sound.

The lance descended from the sky in an arc, piercing through his armor, passing through his chest and exiting from his buttocks, pinning General Suren to the ground.

General Suren, known as "Iron Wall," stared wide-eyed, blood gushing from his mouth, as he looked incredulously at the sharp blade embedded in his body.
"This is impossible!"

He struggled to pull the lance from his chest, but life was already receding like the tide. The general's vision blurred, and all he could hear were the screams echoing from the city walls.
"The general is dead!"

"The gods are enraged!"

"Run away, run away!"

The defenders on the city wall collapsed instantly, with some kneeling on the ground and others crying and running away.

The new king of Dayuan was so frightened by this scene that he collapsed to the ground, a puddle of water flowing from his crotch.

"Open the city gates! Open the city gates now!" the King of Dayuan shouted hysterically. "We surrender! We surrender!"

As the city gates of Yucheng slowly opened, Su Yao rode his war elephant Baruch and entered the city amidst the watchful eyes of the crowd.

The surrendered Kushan soldiers knelt on both sides of the road, their foreheads pressed to the ground, unable to look directly at this conqueror who resembled a god.
