I am already immortal, why should I ascend to become an immortal?

Chapter 234 Lian Po, Death; Hangu Pass Destroyed (6k)

"For the world, for the people!"

Ke, Nie Zheng and Yao Li looked at each other, said something in unison, then clamped their legs around the white horses under them and dived down with weapons in their hands.

There was a dull light flashing in the three pairs of eyes, without any trace of tragic concern about life or death.

Ke, Nie Zheng and Yao Li were all retainers recruited by Lü Buwei when he traveled around the Central Plains in his early years. All three were war orphans, without father, mother, wife, son or friend.

If Lu Buwei had not come to his rescue, he would have become a pile of dry bones in the field.

"kill!"

"Ke", who always hid in the dark and took people's lives, suddenly changed his behavior and roared to the sky.

As the word "kill" fell.

I saw "Ke" holding a silver dagger in each hand, and disappeared from the horse's back in an instant, leaving only a residual shadow.

then.

In the coalition army of the Three Kingdoms in front, the front row of soldiers fell down one after another in an orderly manner, just like wheat being harvested in autumn.

A knife.

Each man used only one knife, and "Ke" stabbed the dagger accurately into the opponent's heart.

And after his ghostly figure harvested dozens of lives, no one on the other side noticed the existence of "Ke".

"Magic, turning beans into soldiers!"

Yao Li on horseback followed closely behind, and being proficient in alchemy, his attainments in "mixing fish and dragons" were even higher than that of Tang Qianyan.

The sky is yellow and the clouds are clear.

Countless tender buds and green leaves were blown into the air by a strong wind and then scattered among the crowd of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces.

And at the moment when the green leaves touch the ground.

There was a series of sounds like firecrackers, bang, bang, and then one hundred thousand black-armored Qin soldiers suddenly appeared in the enemy's camp.

One hundred thousand Qin troops appeared out of nowhere.

This immediately put the three kingdoms of Chu, Tang and Qi in a panic.

After just a few short seconds, they discovered that although the Qin soldiers were waving their weapons, they were unable to hurt anyone.

However, after Yaoli led his men to disrupt the enemy camp, the soldiers of the Three Kingdoms realized that whether these people were real or fake, they had to deal with them with all their strength.

Because among those sharp blades that are slashing at them, there will always be one that is real.

There are steep cliffs on both sides of Hangu Pass, and the passage is narrow, only a hundred meters wide.

This also meant that Lian Po was unable to order millions of soldiers to charge forward at once, and they could only break through the pass in waves.

And this is exactly the reason on the Qin side.

Therefore, whenever the drawbridge is lowered, you don't need to send too many troops to contain the enemy.

It is a situation where one can attack when advancing and defend when retreating, and one man can hold off ten thousand.

After seeing the performance of Ke, Yaoli and Nie Zheng, Lu Buwei, who was on the top of the Guanlou, raised the curve of his mouth higher and higher.

He even asked his men to bring him a pot of fine wine from Xianyang. He drank it alone while looking down at the battlefield below.

"I am the leader of the battle of Hangu Pass. We can repel the enemy by simply holding on. However, I am the only one in the entire Qin Dynasty who can do this. Even the king cannot do it!"

Lu Buwei's expression became more and more proud, he even pushed the wine glass aside and drank directly from the spout of the kettle.

"My Lord, why is this?"

A dark-skinned giant asked while tearing a pig leg apart with greasy mouth.

Among Lu Buwei's five generals, only Zhu Hai never covered his face.

This man is not only eleven feet tall, but also weighs as much as four adults. He has a big pot belly and is exposed to the outside every day regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter. His skin is as dark as charcoal and he is born with supernatural powers.

Zhu Hai was the only one among the five generals who did not have a tragic life experience. However, as a butcher in his early years, Zhu Hai would eat up all the slaughtered animals before selling them.

The reason why he followed Lu Buwei was simply because Lu Buwei had promised him that he could eat meat at any time, eat all kinds of meat, and be full every meal.

"Hai, with your wisdom, it's hard for me to explain this matter to you!"

Lu Buwei smiled slightly, filled Zhu Hai's bowl with wine, patted his shoulder and said.

"I don't drink alcohol. Something that makes me drunk after just one sip doesn't taste good!"

After seeing the wine bowl, Zhu Hai shook his head repeatedly, as if he had forgotten what Lu Buwei had just said.

"Ying Chu, you are wrong. My king, you are also wrong. Unifying the Central Plains does not rely solely on national destiny and military strength!"

Lu Buwei narrowed his eyes and talked to himself.

At this moment, he suddenly recalled the scene when he and Ying Chu were young, drinking wine and having long conversations under the pavilion in the rain.

He also thought of the scene a few months ago when he was discussing the world with Ying Lou in the military tent on the way to Mount Zhongnan.

This time.

Lü Buwei asked Ke, Yaoli and Nie Zheng to lead the troops into battle not to defeat the invading enemy, but to demonstrate and build momentum in the army.

Before setting off, he had also instructed not to fight with Lian Po, Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao.

After all, these three people are famous all over the world, and they are not their match for the time being.

However, as with everything in this world, no matter how perfectly planned, most things will inevitably go wrong.

Just like at Hangu Pass at this time.

Lian Po and Xiang Yu had already arrived at the gate, only a few dozen meters away from "Ke" and his men.

"I need some time. The three of you guard the surroundings and do not allow anyone to come within twenty steps of me."

Say it.

Lian Po closed his eyes, held the spear named "Warring States" in his hand, and stood motionless.

"What is this old man going to do?"

Even though he was at the core of the battlefield, Li Cunxiao was still arrogant enough to ignore the swordplay around him.

"I don't know, but if he fails, I will drive him out of Chu myself."

Xiang Yu waved his hand and knocked the arrow that was shot at the back of his head to the ground.

In this way, a cup of tea, a quarter of an hour, a stick of incense passed, until an hour later, Lian Po still had his eyes closed and did not move.

Twenty steps away from him, the ground was filled with Qin soldiers' corpses, split stones and countless broken arrows.

Xiang Yu, Li Cunxiao and Tian Dan never left here.

Even though "Ke", Yaoli and Nie Zheng were just a hundred steps away, they continued to kill the generals of the Three Kingdoms.

"Half an hour, I can only give this old guy another half an hour at most!"

The bored Li Cunxiao stretched lazily, stuck the halberd in his hand into the ground, and then covered his mouth with his right hand and breathed out.

But just as he finished speaking.

Lian Po suddenly opened his eyes, and with a slight flick of his finger, he grasped the hundred-jin "Warring States" spear in his hand.

"Ten thousand, armor-breaking!"

Lian Po let out a light sound and then started waving his spear in place as if no one was around.

Each move was as slow as morning exercises.

"One hundred thousand, crack the stone!"

The spear "Warring States" with a silver-white glow drew a series of tracks in the air, as gorgeous as the Milky Way.

"Five hundred thousand, collapse everything!"

Starting with 10,000 soldiers, Lian Po gradually increased the morale of the soldiers.

"Six hundred thousand, shatter mountains and rivers!"

The speed increased and the power also increased a lot.

But Lian Po continued to dance on the spot.

Moreover, in his eyes, there was no emotional change in Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao, as if they had lost consciousness.

"Seven hundred thousand to suppress the Five Mountains!"

"Eight hundred thousand to pacify the world!"

Lian Po's power grew stronger and stronger, and his speed became faster and faster, and even afterimages appeared, as if there were multiple Lian Pos dancing with spears at the same time.

"Nine hundred thousand, massacre of the nation!"

Dark clouds covered the city, strong winds howled, and sand and rocks flew everywhere inside and outside the entire Hangu Pass.

The sky suddenly became gloomy, as if a rainstorm was about to come.

"Nine hundred and ninety thousand, the beacon fires are extinguished, the smoke of war is gone."

Rain and snow fell suddenly, and the temperature was as high as in December.

"One million, natural disaster!"

As Lian Po condensed his ultimate military energy, the shadows around him that were still dancing with spears instantly dissipated and returned to their original forms.

Calm. Lian Po was terrifyingly calm at this moment.

Not even the sound of breathing could be heard.

The strong wind blew his white hair, and a stone could cut his cheek, leaving a bloody wound.

"Could this old guy be..."

The two geniuses, Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao, looked at each other and instantly understood what Lian Po was going to do.

"Adding up the morale of the troops one by one and breaking through the million mark, this method is unheard of. Lian Po is worthy of being one of the four famous generals in the Central Plains."

The two men originally looked down on Lian Po because he betrayed Zhao and joined Chu for wealth and fame.

At this moment, everyone felt respect.

By stacking up the soldiers' spirit one by one, they would explode and die if they were not careful. Lian Po actually managed to do this method that would leave them with no chance of survival.

All of a sudden.

The whole world became quiet.

The rain and snow stopped and the sun was still shining, as if nothing had happened.

"Bai Qi, today, I will not only catch up with you, but also surpass you. I want everyone in the world to know that I, Lian Po, am superior to you, Bai Qi."

Lian Po raised his head to the sky and whispered something, then put the spear "Warring States" in his hand behind him.

"The combined military spirit and one shot will take over the Central Plains."

The spear thrust out with a loud bang, and an impact like a world-destroying natural disaster penetrated the hundred-meter-high gate of Hangu Pass.

There was a boom.

The mountains on both sides were shaking, and countless huge rocks rolled in and out of Hangu Pass.

Tens of thousands of Qin troops and the coalition forces of the Three Kingdoms were smashed into pools of meat in an instant.

Gravel and dust slowly fell from the sky like a huge curtain.

The Hangu Pass, which had stood majestically for a thousand years, now looked like a spider web, covered with dense cracks.

Ninety percent of the dozens of wooden beams locking the door had been broken.

Although Hangu Pass did not collapse, it was already on the verge of crumbling, and the interior was in ruins.

"So strong!"

Li Cunxiao used his arms to block in front of him. The impact of Lian Po's attack almost made him fall to the ground.

"But he is not as good as Bai Qi. He seems to be a little bit behind."

Although Xiang Yu was also surprised by the power of Lian Po's attack, he knew that compared with Bai Qi's sword that truly broke through the morale of millions of soldiers, Lian Po was still a little bit short.

Breaking through the morale of a million soldiers is always as difficult as ascending to heaven.

huh~~
huh~~
Lian Po stood there, breathing heavily, his face as white as pure frost, without a trace of blood, and the sweat on his body formed a puddle under his feet.

The originally strong muscles on his body seemed to have shrunk by half at this moment, and his frail body could not even support the armor.

With his five fingers trembling and cramping due to exhaustion, he could only throw the spear in his hand to the ground.

"Still, still one step short? Why don't you let me take this small step?"

Lian Po opened his bloodshot eyes and looked ahead blankly.

The split lips opened and closed.

At this moment, he seemed to see Bai Qi's back right in front of him, but his outstretched hand could never reach him.

"No, I, Lian Po, am not inferior to anyone. Bai Qi, I will definitely surpass you today."

suddenly.

Two rays of light shot out of Lian Po's eyes, and then he bent down and picked up the spear "Warring States" on the ground again.

Dragging his exhausted body, he started from the beginning with ten thousand soldiers and re-evolved what he had learned in his life.

Every time he fired a shot, his blood vessels would burst and spurt out streams of blood. He did not stop until his entire body was stained with blood and the puddles on the ground wet with sweat turned red.

"Don't bother General Lian Po!"

Seeing Tian Dan preparing to step forward to stop him, Xiang Yu stretched out the Overlord Spear in his hand and stopped him.

"Are you crazy? If this happens again, General Lian Po will surely die. Who will lead the three armies then?"

Tian Dan cursed angrily.

Hangu Pass is now a dying candle in the wind. The siege troops only need to charge a few more times to break through the gate, and the world's number one pass will collapse here and become history.

But after breaking through the pass, it would not be easy to quickly conquer the Qin State without the four famous generals in charge.

We also have to be on guard against the State of Zhao, which has Li Mu, taking advantage of the opportunity to invade.

"How can a scoundrel like you understand the obsession of a general like me?"

Li Cunxiao also stood up, holding a long spear in one hand, with disdain on his face.

Looking at the two geniuses from Chu and Tang standing in front of him, Tian Dan, who was nearly fifty years old, had the strength to fight, but did not have the courage to take a step forward.

"Humph, if Lian Po dies in battle, I wonder how you will explain this to Lord Chang Ling."

Tian Dan took back the two huge axes in his hands, stepped back and ignored them.

At this time, on the top of the gate tower of Hangu Pass.

Lian Po's previous attack caused the wooden pillars and beams to fall to the ground.

If Zhu Hai had not used his body to block the attack, Lu Buwei would have been either dead or disabled.

"Sir, I think this place is about to collapse, why don't we go down first."

Zhu Hai's voice reached Lu Buwei's ears, but at this moment he had no intention of answering.

At this moment, Lu Buwei's heart, which had never been panicked, became unstable.

It's not like he had never seen the full-strength attacks of the four famous generals, but according to his previous understanding, it was impossible for a million soldiers to shake the Hangu Pass. At most, they could only destroy a corner of the gate.

"No, Hangu Pass must not be destroyed!"

Lu Buwei stood up, walked to the broken railing, then leaned over and looked down.

And at this time, the pass.

Ke, Yaoli and Nie Zheng also looked up at the sky at the same time.

Although we are far apart, we cannot pass the message.

But these three people all knew in their hearts that if Hangu Pass was destroyed, Lu Buwei would never have the chance to control military power again.

If the prime minister cannot realize his ambitions, then the world will not be truly peaceful.

Therefore, the three of them must stop Lian Po.

"Yao Li, Nie Zheng!"

"Ke" stopped and held the two daggers in his hands.

"Nie Zheng and I will be responsible for holding back Xiang Yu, Li Cunxiao, and Tian Dan, and you go and kill Lian Po."

The three people who have been working together for several years have already reached a tacit understanding in their hearts and know what to do at the moment without saying a word.

"it is good!"

Nie Zheng tore off the white cloth on his face, revealing a face covered with burn marks.

Although his appearance was disfigured, it is not difficult to tell from his high nose bridge and deep, translucent eyes that Nie Zheng must have been a handsome man before he was disfigured.

"We've known each other for many years, but this is the first time I've seen your face."

Yao Li let out a sigh of relief.

He knew that if nothing unexpected happened, the three of them would probably never see each other again. Nie Zheng had already prepared himself for death.

"Hmph, stop talking nonsense and get started."

Nie Zheng drew out his long sword and looked forward intently.

Originally a general of the State of Qi, he would have disfigured himself to save his life if he had not been framed by a villain more than ten years ago, resulting in the destruction of his family.

I am afraid that his current achievements are no less than those of Wang Jian, Bai Macuo and others.

"Magic is like a blind man!"

Yao Li took out a small jade pot from his arms, threw it into the air, and then cut it in half with a knife, letting the fragrant powder inside fly towards Lian Po with the wind.

This magic trick is the ultimate masterpiece called "A Leaf Blindness" that can confuse all kinds of people. Even Tang Qianyan and Gui Xiangzi back then could not master it.

Unexpectedly, several years later, it was actually learned by a young junior.

As the incense powder floated in front of Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao.

The two of them immediately noticed something was wrong with their keen five senses.

"Protect General Lian Po!"

Xiang Yu shouted loudly, and immediately opened his pupils, condensing the spirit of 600,000 soldiers.

Li Cunxiao followed closely behind, causing his muscles to quickly become engorged with blood and swell to twice their original size. Although he was not as able to raise the morale of his troops to the limit as Xiang Yu, his strength became beyond imagination.

The two men stood on either side of Lian Po, one on the left and one on the right, protecting him.

Even Tian Dan, who was standing by, seemed to have noticed something was wrong and became alert.

But as the incense powder spreads.

All I saw was a thick white fog covering the surroundings with Lian Po as the center.

Suddenly, the heaven and earth shook, and Xiang Yu, Li Cunxiao and Tian Dan felt their heads turned upside down and their bodies floated up.

Waves of strange fragrance penetrated into my nostrils, making my brain swell and become dizzy instantly.

"Grandpa!", "King of Tang!", "King of Qi!"

The three of them shouted at the same time.

Suddenly, Xiang Yan, Li Yingtai and King Tian Jian of Qi appeared in front of them.

Then the most important scenes and pictures in their minds began to appear.

This extremely real illusion, coupled with the scent of powder attacking their brains, caused the three of them to lose consciousness briefly. It was only a moment, but it seemed like ten years had passed.

And at this time.

Yaoli and Nie Zheng had already rushed ten steps away.

"Nie Zheng!"

Yao Li shouted loudly, and Nie Zheng instantly condensed the energy of 450,000 soldiers and slashed at Tian Dan, who was closest to him.

Just when the long knife was less than ten inches away from Tian Dan's neck.

Xiang Yu's eyes suddenly opened, and the four pupils in his eye sockets scanned the surroundings, instantly breaking through the blindness.

He thrust out the Overlord Spear in his hand, blocking Nie Zheng's long sword.

However, Nie Zheng was no ordinary man. Under the impact of Xiang Yu's tremendous force, he just spun a few times in the air and then got rid of it.

He swung the long sword in his hand again and directly cut off Tian Dan's right leg with one stroke, which could be regarded as revenge.

The severe pain from the broken leg also awakened Tian Dan from his illusion.

Nie Zheng steadied his body, and without even looking at Tian Dan who had lost his fighting ability, he rushed towards Xiang Yu again. Although he knew he was no match for Xiang Yu, as long as he could hold him off, he would win.

the other side.

Li Cunxiao's muscles, filled with blood, became extremely hot, like an iron smelting boiler.

With the help of the high temperature, he dispelled the confusion of the scented powder and broke through the illusion of a blinding leaf.

"Humph, you think you can use such a mere folk acrobatics on me!"

Li Cunxiao picked up the halberd and was about to go to Lian Po.

Sudden.

Tens of thousands of Yaoli fell from the sky at the same time, holding long swords, and slashed at Li Cunxiao together.

"court death!"

With one move of Li Cunxiao, 90% of the tens of thousands of Yaoli disappeared.

The remaining people were divided into two, two into four, and in the blink of an eye they had become an army of 100,000.

However, their target seemed not to be Li Cunxiao, but Lian Po behind him.

"With me here, you are not worthy of getting close to Lian Po!"

Li Cunxiao stomped his feet hard on the ground, causing the ground around him to crack.

Since we can't tell which one is the real one, we'll just chop them all off.

One man makes an army, Li Cunxiao.

At this moment, it was like an army, destroying the illusions that were about to leave one by one at an extremely fast speed.

Until only the last entity is left.

Li Cunxiao opened his bloodshot eyes and used all his strength to chop the opponent's head with the halberd in his hand.

"Ke, my mission is completed, and the next step is up to you!"

Watching the halberd chopping down, Yao Li closed his eyes, knowing that he was no match for his opponent.

And at this time.

Within five steps of Lian Po.

A leaf fell silently, and suddenly the white mist around it dispersed, and it turned into the shape of "Ke".

His eyes were as cold as frost, without a trace of emotion.

Even though they were ten meters away from him, Yao Li was split in half vertically by Li Cunxiao, and Nie Zheng was cut in half by Xiang Yu.

There was no trace of emotion on Ke's face.

At this moment, there was only Lian Po in his eyes.

Having assassinated dozens of times in his life, "Ke" was confident that he would never fail within five steps, even if the opponent was Lian Po, one of the four famous generals in the Central Plains.

Four steps.

Three steps.

Two steps.

step.

As the last step was taken, "Ke" stabbed the two daggers in his hands, one towards Lian Po's heart and the other towards his neck.

Both places are fatal.

Puchi~
Puchi~
As the sound of the dagger piercing the flesh was heard, "Ke" knew that his mission was accomplished.

"What are you doing, little thief?"

Lian Po, who seemed to have aged by several dozen years, suddenly opened his sunken and fleshless eyes.

His scarlet pupils were fixed on this unknown person who appeared out of nowhere in front of him.

"not dead?"

Just when "Ke" was surprised.

The almost materialized military energy at Lian Po's neck and heart shattered the two daggers in his hands into pieces.

"Are you qualified to stop me?"

Lian Po was furious.

With a swing of the gun handle, he easily lifted "Ke" into the air.

"Bai Qi, I'm here to talk to you about the past!"

Lian Po, who had wasted his entire life and was driven out of Zhao State by his junior Li Mu in his later years, now felt relieved.

This spear was thrust out, regardless of whether it could surpass Bai Qi of that day.

Lian Po no longer had any regrets.

"One million and one hundred thousand soldiers, there is only death and no life!"

The spear "Warring States" shattered in an instant, turning into countless iron pieces and attacking Hangu Pass.

"Ke" in the air was merely hit by this blow and his body was completely destroyed.

Lian Po, who launched this attack, had all his bones and muscles turned into powder in an instant.

It turned into a pool of blood and flesh and fell to the ground.

　The word count of these two chapters is difficult to divide, so they are combined into one chapter (6k).
