Chapter 182: Invincible Man, a Punch That Even Immortals and Gods Can't Stop

[When Liu Bei's 300,000-man army was crossing the river again, they encountered a flood for no apparent reason, causing the army to be defeated. ]

[The gods and immortals did not dare to slaughter Liu Bei's army at will because of the great catastrophe of heaven and earth, but the means they used were too simple. ]

[All the soldiers were in a state of panic, and all their eyes turned to the silent military advisor Zhuge Liang.]

[Zhuge Liang stared at the opposite bank quietly. Ten miles ahead was Cao Cao's mighty army, but this short distance of ten miles was ruthlessly blocked by a river like a natural moat.]

[This was their eighth Northern Expedition, and this time they did not even have the chance to engage in a head-on confrontation with Cao Cao.]

[The morale of the remaining 200,000 troops hit rock bottom. ]

[Zhuge Liang looked up at the sky and seemed to be able to see those high and mighty gods, who looked down upon the mortals in this earthly world with silent sarcasm.]

[This is why “smart people” have chosen to compromise for thousands of years. ]

[Once you step into this chess game, you will become a puppet in the hands of the gods and immortals. ]

[Every reincarnation is the "prosperous age" that the immortals and gods look forward to. Between heaven and earth, these "immortals and gods who have no worries about food and clothing" occupy 90% of the great fortune of heaven and earth, and their ambitions are growing. ]

[There is no "prosperous age". Even the immortals and gods will take the initiative to create a "prosperous age" to harvest all living beings, under the pretext that the material of the world is limited and cannot accommodate more and more living beings...]

[It is better to sacrifice the small self and achieve the big self. ]

【This is the root cause of the world's stagnation. 】

[Ten thousand years ago, the Heaven and the Four Saints ascended to the Heaven to put an end to the "Gods who had no worries about food and clothing" and there was a period of prosperity.]

[However, their disciples were born with "no worries about food and clothing", and naturally began to pursue a higher level of "Tao". But for thousands of mortals, this was an unbearable burden. The former dragon-slaying heroes gradually transformed into new evil dragons. ]

[Young Zhuge Liang slowly closed his eyes.]

[Faced with the gods and immortals in the sky, what can a mortal do? 】

[“Are you going to give up?” Just then, a gentle voice came. ]

【Zhuge Liang suddenly opened his eyes and saw a young man standing beside him.】

[“Mr. Lu, are you disappointed in us?” Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly. Mr. Lu taught two “fools” and caused the world to have a third fool.]

[But if he had to do it again, Zhuge Liang would still choose to be the third fool. ]

[“It’s right to do it, and it’s also right if it’s wrong.” Lu Bu shook his head.

His life can be summed up in these eight words. 】

[The first level is "heart path". As long as you are brave enough to do it, even if you fail in the end, this behavior itself is right and meaningful. ]

[The second level is "tyranny", that is, whatever he does, whether right or wrong, is right in his eyes.]

【Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Yang Jin, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others knew it was impossible but still did it. They are true heroes.】

[Over the years, Lü Bu and Wuyou have seen it all. 】

[“It’s right to do it, and it’s also right if it’s wrong…” Zhuge Liang turned his head and looked at the generals beside him with determined eyes. After the seventh Northern Expedition, hadn’t they already expected the failure? But they still didn’t give up and did what they wanted. ]

[There are no miracles in the world, they themselves are the miracles. ]

[“Father, are you sure?” Yang Jin summoned “Lü Bu’s Divine Mind”. Ever since Cao Cao received help from the gods and immortals, he has never had a good night’s sleep.]

【Liu Bei didn't want to surrender, and neither did he.】

[He didn't want to do something that was uncertain, but without the power of "Lü Bu", they couldn't even cross the river in front of them.]

[“Leave it to me next.” Lu Bu replied with a smile. ]

[He hasn't met an opponent in a long time.]

【Lü Bu was excited, and his whole body was burning with golden flames, rising into the sky.】

……

【Cao Cao's army suddenly felt a heavy pressure and looked up.】

[A golden figure stands in the sky! ]

[“Lü Bu, it’s Lü Bu coming!!” The generals and soldiers who had survived Hulao Pass stared at the figure in the sky in horror.]

[“Don’t panic, go and ask the immortal master to come!” After the initial panic, a general quickly regained his composure and ordered his subordinates to report to Cao Cao. He looked up, sneered and said to Lu Bu, “Lord Cao has the blessing of heaven, it is destiny! A mere Lu Bu…”]

[“Lü Bu, look at my magical power!!” At this moment, a golden-armored general was eager to make a contribution, and as soon as his beast form appeared, he took the lead and suddenly pounced on Lü Bu in mid-air.]

[Cao Cao and the people in heaven walked out of the banquet and looked up at the sky.]

[“Such a great achievement was achieved by Ding Yuan, what a pity.” Another red-armored general was a step slower and sighed.]

【Cao Cao unified the world, and everyone present could share in the luck, but in this great catastrophe of heaven and earth, naturally whoever contributed more would have more luck, and "luck" could maintain their emotions from being wiped out.】

【Lü Bu is a big fish! 】

[“Come and beat the drum to cheer us on!!”]

【Cao Cao shouted excitedly.】

[Over the years, Lu Bu has been his lingering nightmare. He often dreams of being caught up by Lu Bu and beaten into a bloody mist with a single blow of his halberd.]

[Today, with the help of Heaven, the nightmare will be gone! ]

[The general next to him heard what Cao Cao said and immediately picked up a sledgehammer and smashed it down. ]

【boom--】

【Lü Bu showed great interest and raised his hand to punch. 】

[The golden-armored god general didn't even let out a scream, and was instantly reduced to ashes. The world suddenly became quiet.]

【“Ah?!” Everyone present took a deep breath. 】

[“One punch?”]

[The powers of the gods in heaven are similar, and they fight for three days and three nights before they can be determined. That's right, it's not about winning or losing, but about who is better. Without a suitable magic weapon, it is impossible to kill another god. 】【Generally, they have to beat them half to death and then send them to the "Immortal Execution Platform" to destroy their souls. 】

[And Lu Bu's punch turned the divine general into ashes...]

[The Red Armor God frowned, looked around, and immediately retreated behind the crowd.]

[Cao Cao pretended to be calm, raised his head, and met the pair of calm golden eyes in the sky, and his heart suddenly trembled. ]

[Which warrior hasn't heard of the deeds of the "divine general", but he was killed by Lu Bu with one punch. Looking at the fear on the faces of the generals, there is no heroism at all. ]

[Lü Bu gently slapped a mosquito to death, then looked down at the generals and immortal master in heaven below with great interest.]

[In an instant, the will of the Heavenly Court fell to the bottom, and he could not even muster the will to resist. He was even inferior to the first-class generals of the Cao army next to him. Lu Bu frowned. ]

[Is this a god? He clearly possesses such a powerful force, why is he afraid of death? ]

「Too weak. I don’t even have the courage to punch him……」

[The passion that had just risen in Lü Bu's heart was instantly extinguished by a bucket of cold water.]

【Boring. 】

【Lü Bu looked up to a higher place, where there were still masters. Mr. Wuyou mentioned the Heaven and the Four Saints, the Hundred Schools of Taoism, the Heavenly Generals and the like. He knew that he was not lonely in this world, but those people seemed to be deliberately avoiding him.】

[He is just an ordinary man and cannot find where these people are hiding. ]

[However, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Yang Jin established a dynasty, and they were able to force them to take action. This was a pleasant surprise.]

[This time——you will have to face me! ]

[“My lord, are you still beating the drum?” In the silence, the general who was beating the drum suddenly asked weakly.]

Cao Cao glared at the general fiercely, then turned to the silent people in the heaven beside him and asked: "Masters, who is willing to take action, show your magical powers, capture this thief Lu Bu, and make the first contribution!"

[After he finished speaking, everyone in Heaven fell into a brief silence.]

Cao Cao felt uneasy when he saw the generals in the Heaven Court seemed hesitant. He realized that Lu Bu's strength must be the best among the generals in the Heaven Court. He was about to persuade the people in the Heaven Court not to stick to the moral principles and to join forces to besiege Lu Bu.

[At this moment, a red-robed Taoist in the crowd took a step forward calmly.]

[Cao Cao immediately cast an expectant look at the red-robed Taoist priest. He raised the wine in his hand and was about to open his mouth to serve the red-robed Taoist priest: "My Lord..."]

[The red-robed Taoist bowed and said, "Lord Cao, I suddenly remembered that I still have a furnace of elixirs being refined in my cave. I need to go back and take care of it immediately. I will take my leave now!"]

[As soon as he finished speaking, before Cao Cao could try to persuade him to stay, the red-robed Taoist turned into a breeze and flew away, leaving the place empty.]

[Cao Cao was holding a glass of wine, and he stood there in a daze: "???"]

[The Qigong practitioners on the Heavenly Court side turned their heads and took a look at the golden figure in the sky that looked "invincible". They all realized that if they didn't leave now, they would be reduced to ashes in the next moment.]

【They all said goodbye and scattered like birds and beasts. 】

[Suddenly only the gods of heaven were left, looking at each other in bewilderment. It was not that they did not want to leave, but they were regular members of heaven and could not leave.]

[“Didn’t you say that Lu Bu is nothing but a chicken and a dog? Capture Lu Bu in ten moves?” Cao Cao asked anxiously. ]

[“Lord Cao, you didn’t tell us that Lu Bu is so fierce?” The heavenly general who had boasted that he could defeat Lu Bu within ten moves now looked innocent.]

[If they had known earlier that there were such powerful beings in the human world, they would not have rushed to get the chance to go down to the lower world, and now they would ride the tiger south. ]

[“Didn’t I tell you?” Cao Cao sneered. He was originally afraid of Lu Bu and didn’t dare to use troops against Liu Bei easily. However, these heavenly gods and immortals looked down on Lu Bu. ]

[But with just one punch from Lu Bu, those generals flinched. This scene was truly ironic.]

[Cao Cao cursed in his heart that Lü Bu and the gods interfered with human affairs at will, making it impossible for him to carry out his plans and making his million-strong army useless. If he ever became the "Son of Heaven", he would "destroy mountains and temples, cut off the connection between heaven and earth", and wipe out those gods one by one.]

[He looked around at the gods and generals in heaven. They were all cowards who loved life and feared death. No one could be trusted.]

[At first, he listened to Feng Xiao's words, ascended to heaven and worshipped the gods, and the gods came down to help him. As long as he defeated Dong Zhuo, he would be destined.]

【Destiny?】

【Cao Cao suddenly remembered the brocade bag left by Feng Xiao, and hurriedly took out the letter inside, only to see four big characters written on it.】

【“Surrender and you will be spared.”】

[Cao Cao was furious, then took a deep breath and stared at the words in deep thought.]

【Surrender and save life?】

[At this moment——]

[With a loud bang, thunder fell from the sky, like a real lightning pillar, hitting Lu Bu from the sky into the depths of the mountain below! ! ]

【when--】

[As the deep bell sounded, the clouds and mist slowly dissipated, and a towering bronze gate appeared on the horizon. The hanging plaque seemed to have magical power, letting people know what was called "Nantianmen". ]

[Immediately afterwards, a majestic giant god appeared in the sky.]

[“Mortals from the lower world, why don’t you surrender?”]

[The sound of drums shook the earth, the South Heaven Gate slowly opened, countless heavenly soldiers poured out like a tide, and quickly formed a strict military formation. Every god general had a blank expression on his face, his eyes were cold, and they were fixed on Lu Bu.]

[They faced Lu Bu without fear and were able to fully display their full strength——]

[Lü Bu stood on the ground, bathing in the fierce bombardment of the Pillar of Thunder. He held his head high and his chest puffed out. His originally calm face finally underwent a subtle change, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.]

【at the same time.】

[Cao Cao looked up at the sky, staring at the pillar of thunder that had not yet dissipated.]

[He suddenly tore the letter in his hand into pieces and threw it away, with the pieces flying in the wind.]

[I, Cao Cao, am destined to succeed! ]
