"Not enough." Xiang Yu also thrust his Overlord Divine Halberd several times.
Clang clang clang...
Sparks are flying everywhere!
Zhao Yun's eyes widened; how could he possibly block it!
"Watch this move again! Kill!"
This time, Zhao Yun thrust out thirty-six spear tips at the same time, and they were longer than before, not just the tips, but even half of the spear shaft.
Xiang Yu repeatedly swept his Overlord Halberd to parry Zhao Yun's attacks, narrowly escaping the attack.
Then.
The black horse raised its front hooves, and Xiang Yu's Overlord Halberd slammed down heavily. "Don't run!"
Zhao Yun showed no intention of dodging, and raised his spear upwards with both hands.
Thud!
The two were evenly matched in strength!
It should be noted that Xiang Yu had no more reservations at this point, and his full-force smash was actually blocked by Zhao Yun.
The key point is that not only could Zhao Yun withstand the attack, but his mount could also withstand it, which shows that the horse was no ordinary horse!
At this moment, Guan Yu had already returned to Yuan Tan's side with Zhang Fei and Zhang He.
Yuan Tan cured them with two divine medicines. "Yun Chang, Yi De, Jun Yi, the three of you go and assist in the battle. You must kill them here!"
Chapter 610 The Final Battle (Part 1)
Although Zhao Yun's magic skills are not as exaggerated as Lu Bu's, they are very practical and especially suitable for close combat on horseback.
The barrage of spear shadows could be used for both offense and defense. In addition, Zhao Yun himself was highly skilled in martial arts and his strength had been enhanced, making him basically no less powerful than Xiang Yu after he was banned from magic.
Despite his best efforts, Xiang Yu could only manage a draw with Zhao Yun, and his black horse, Wuzhui, could no longer offer him much help. Zhao Yun's mount, Yulan Bailongju, had also been strengthened.
If Zhao Yun had targeted Wuzhui, Xiang Yu might not have been able to protect it, and would have had to dismount and fight on foot.
It can be said that this was an unfair duel. Xiang Yu and his horse Wuzhui did not lose, but the difference in their cheat codes was revealed early on. A magic-suppressing skill brought the strongest system back to its original form, rendering it unable to do anything except chat and spy.
But Xiang Yu did not back down at all. Wasn't the opponent he was looking for the one who could bring him pressure and life-or-death crisis?
Clang clang clang...
Weapons clashed repeatedly, sparks flying as the two fought fiercely, each move a deadly strike, neither daring to underestimate the others.
Xiang Yu became more and more excited as he fought, and small wounds gradually appeared on his body.
Zhao Yun was shocked. This man seemed to be weaker than him, but he was exceptionally powerful in battle. Moreover, his halberd skills were even better than Lü Bu's, and his strength was even greater than that of Iron-Faced Dian Wei.
What's even more terrifying is that this man, who calls himself Xiang Yu the Overlord, actually possesses some of the might of an overlord. Even when he is at a disadvantage, he shows no sign of backing down, and he has extremely rich combat experience, making him a truly formidable opponent.
Despite Zhao Yun's best efforts, he failed to defeat Xiang Yu, and even managed to inflict serious injury. At most, he managed to leave some shallow wounds on the enemy, which had no real effect.
The only option now is to slowly wear each other down, and after three hundred rounds of fierce fighting, we'll see who wins and who loses.
Just as Zhao Yun was preparing for a protracted battle, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, and Zhang He arrived to help. If it was a four-on-one situation, there was hope of ending the battle quickly.
"Overlord, stop fighting! Let's go! If we join forces, you're bound to lose." Guan Yu didn't rush to attack; rashly joining the battle might result in him being accidentally injured by the two.
Zhang He raised his spear, preparing to ambush Xiang Yu, when suddenly a large hand grabbed the shaft of his spear—it was Zhang Fei.
"Huh? Junyi, what are you doing? Aren't you afraid of accidentally hurting Zilong?" Zhang Fei glared at Zhang He.
"Uh, Yide, don't misunderstand. I was just trying to scare that guy. The two of them are fighting so fiercely, how could I use my special skills recklessly? If I accidentally hurt Zhao Yun, that would be terrible." Zhang He smiled sheepishly.
Guan Yu narrowed his eyes. "Junyi, calm down. We can say that we've already won. There's no need for us to do anything underhanded. Wouldn't it be better to defeat them fair and square?"
"Yun Chang is absolutely right." Zhang He cursed inwardly. It's hardly honorable for the many to bully the few. Are these two here to help in the battle, or to betray the enemy?
"Your Majesty, please hear me out!" Guan Yu urged again.
Zhang Fei, watching the game with growing anxiety, said, "Overlord! I don't want to owe you a favor. You brought me from Wuchao to this place without taking my life, and I can repay you now. As long as you turn around and leave, my brother and I will cover your retreat and ensure your safe departure from this place."
"Hahaha... You all come at me together, let me fight to my heart's content!" Xiang Yu laughed loudly.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei exchanged a glance and finally understood Xiang Yu's intentions.
"Then so be it!"
"Watch out!" Zhang Fei shouted, then swung his eighteen-foot spear and charged forward.
Guan Yu, wielding his Green Dragon Crescent Blade, also joined the battle.
Zhang He originally wanted to launch a sneak attack from outside, but now that there were more and more of them in the battle group, there was no chance, so he simply joined the battle group as well.
Zhao Yun had a good relationship with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, so he didn't blame them for rashly joining the battle. As a result, Zhao Yun's flashy special moves were no longer needed.
The five men engaged in a fierce and passionate battle. As the fight progressed, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei relaxed, realizing that this overlord was not a reckless man, but truly possessed the skill.
Zhao Yun was quite surprised. He hadn't expected that Xiang Yu, the Overlord, had more experience dealing with encirclement than in one-on-one combat!
On the contrary, the four of them had very little experience in ganging up on experts, or even almost none.
However, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei were quite familiar with each other, and their teamwork became increasingly smooth. It wouldn't be long before the outcome was decided.
Zhang He was extremely frustrated. After the siege began, he was repeatedly used as a shield by Xiang Yu. If it weren't for him blocking the attack, Zilong would have already injured Xiang Yu.
"Zilong, Yunchang, Yide! The three of you attack together, I'll look for an opportunity on the outside!" Zhang He said, then took a chance to withdraw from the battle.
"Junyi, don't unleash your divine light recklessly, or you might accidentally injure someone!" Zhang Fei warned.
Zhang He's lips twitched violently. "Don't worry, Yide, I know what I'm doing!"
"Beat the drums, cheer them on!" Yuan Tan gave the order, then looked at the young strategist beside him, "My dear minister, I think they won't be able to determine a winner for at least a hundred rounds. How about we have a game of hand-to-hand combat here?"
"Haha, if my lord is in such a good mood, I will gladly oblige!"
...
Proxima Centauri, a mysterious and alluring place.
This is the closest star system to our solar system, and we know very little about it, not even how many planets it has.
As for whether there are any life-bearing planets like Earth or other similar planets among them, that remains unknown.
However, the Proxima Centauri system in the Soul Technology plane is a scene of prosperity.
Several of these planets are inhabited not only by life forms, but also by humans, specifically humans with Eastern features.
They were all cultivators.
A few days ago, the Supreme Immortal Emperor and the Nine Immortal Kings of the Proxima Centauri system held a meeting and jointly decided on a major matter.
That means returning to the Blue Planet to vanquish demons and uphold justice!
Thousands of magical artifacts and giant ships flew towards the blue planet in space, filling every cultivator with immense excitement.
As the saying goes, it's hard to leave one's homeland. They left Water Blue Star because of the depletion of spiritual energy.
But now, they have confirmed the news of the spiritual energy revival on Water Blue Star, and the Immortal Emperor and the nine Immortal Kings have recently obtained peerless immortal treasures, greatly increasing their strength and making them invincible in the world. It is time to go back and end everything.
No one knew that these so-called peerless treasures had another identity.
Beep beep beep...
A piercing shriek echoed through the lunar base, signaling an emergency evacuation.
At the same time, multiple space warships took off, heading towards thousands of meteors in the distance.
"The other party seems to have ill intentions; let's strike first." Xu Fu's eyes gleamed.
"The Overlord is very busy right now, so let us go into battle!"
"That's exactly right!"
...
Xiang Sheng, Xiang Zhuang, Ji Bu, Zhongli Mei, An Jingsi, Ran Min, Li Guang, Ao Xiao, Mo Jianli, Bao Hua, Ming'er... and many other powerful figures from various planes of the Great Chu Empire gathered in the Soul Technology Plane.
A great war is about to break out!
Chapter 611 The Final Battle (Part Two)
An unprecedented war erupted in the Soul Technology Dimension, a fierce clash between technological civilization and the cultivation civilization.
However, because the high-end combat forces of the cultivation civilization did not participate in the battle, they became the passive party, and their defeat was only a matter of time.
"Immortal King! Save me..."
"Immortal Emperor, quickly intervene and kill them..."
...
The Celestial Emperor and the nine Celestial Kings showed no pity for those low-level cultivators, not even bothering to glance at them, clearly not caring about their lives.
"Xiao Mo, could their actions be a trap?" Zhang Liang frowned.
Xu Fu smiled and said, "They've just underestimated us. Their real purpose isn't here."
"I see..." Zhang Liang suddenly realized, then became somewhat worried, "Could it be that they intend to use this method to go to the underworld?"
The second generation of sages thought for a moment, "Perhaps we were wrong from the beginning. The function of this seal is not only to protect the human world, but also to serve as a prison for the strong in the underworld."
Therefore, they will not break the seal, but will go to the underworld in another way. Death may be one way, but it may not be the best, no, it is definitely not the best.
Moreover, they truly underestimated us, thinking that after using us to kill those cultivators, they could annihilate us in the blink of an eye. In their eyes, those cultivators were no different from mortals, mere dispensable beings.
Zhang Liang sneered, "That's not necessarily true. Perhaps those powerful figures aren't confident in dealing with us, so they're using these small fry as cannon fodder to test our strength and methods. It's a way of making use of them."
Of course, it's also possible that their original plan was to have these low-level cultivators clear away all obstacles, but they encountered our strong counterattack instead.
If those cultivators can't even handle mortals, what use are they? It's no wonder they're being abandoned.
Xu Fu pointed into the distance and said, "Can you see it? The sky is starting to change. There is actually a way to open the gates of the underworld without breaking the seal."
Zhang Liang and the second generation of sages looked over at the same time and sure enough, they saw a huge black hole appear in the void, frantically sucking the souls of those cultivators into the underworld.
