Mythical Three Kingdoms

”Chan’er, give me a dance.” As the morning sun shone down on Lyu Bu, the shadows gradually faded away, and Lyu Bu’s proud expression also slowly receded as he spoke gently to Diao Chan.

”Alright.” Diao Chan replied with a smile. Although she didn’t know the reason, there was no one else around, only Lyu Bu, so she didn’t mind dancing for him.

Diao Chan began her slow, graceful dance. Even without any music, her dance calmed Lyu Bu, dissolving all the restlessness in his heart at that moment.

Yet, as Diao Chan danced, her movements became slower, eventually coming to a halt, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Lyu Bu.

”Fengxian, do you really have to go?” Diao Chan didn’t understand martial arts but understood Lyu Bu. Seeing the look in his eyes, she suddenly realized why he asked her to dance, because even Lyu Bu himself was uncertain this time.

”Yes, I’m becoming more aware of my situation now.” Lyu Bu gently caressed Diao Chan’s hair. ”I seem to have fallen victim to a plot. I can hear tens of thousands of prayers near my ears, and those prayers are slowly assimilating me.”

Lyu Bu’s perception was not mistaken, because the power feedback from Mahesvara was indeed too strong, resulting in many Kushan soldiers in Malacca shifting their faith to Mahesvara, causing Lyu Bu to single-handedly confront the faith of tens of thousands.

If Lyu Bu accepted that faith and transformed into Mahesvara’s Manifest Body, he could still maintain autonomy due to his abilities. Although there would be some constraints, they wouldn’t be too strong because of his prowess. But as a proud warrior, Lyu Bu would never tolerate such a thing.

”Don’t cry, be assured. In this world, if I, Lyu Bu, don’t want to die, there’s absolutely no one who can kill me.” Lyu Bu spoke with strong confidence, caressing Diao Chan’s hair.

”Let me dance one more time for you.” With tears in her eyes, Diao Chan slowly withdrew from Lyu Bu’s embrace. Lyu Bu nodded.

In another graceful dance, Lyu Bu felt that all the negativity within himself had been completely cleared away. Watching his life’s experiences as a third party, in that dance, Lyu Bu sensed that he had been cleansed.

Reviewing the martial arts he had practiced throughout his life, Lyu Bu had many different realizations. Many areas he thought were perfect found further elevation.

When Lyu Bu regained his senses, Diao Chan had already helped him put on the armor he had set aside. For the first time since the Battle at Hulao Pass, Lyu Bu donned his Trident Purple Gold Crown, wore his West River Red Cotton Hundred Flower Robe, draped the Beast-faced Devouring Head Chain Armor, fastened the Exquisite Lion Barbarian Belt, carried the Precious Carved Bow, and held the Sky Piercer in his hand.

In the next moment, Red Hare stepped out of the void, landing beside Lyu Bu. Lyu Bu embraced Diao Chan, then let go and leaped onto Red Hare Horse, instantly flying away.

”Fengxian, make sure to come back~” With a sobbing voice, Diao Chan watched the golden-red radiance disappear into the sky.

”It’s time for us to fight together again.” Lyu Bu gripped Red Hare’s reins, allowing his Heart Spirit to open up. Red Hare’s fiery-red Inner Qi quickly fused with Lyu Bu’s own Inner Qi.

In the instant Red Hare’s Inner Qi manifested, its speed reached its limits. The air was torn open by Red Hare’s rush, and the high-speed movement created visual distortions. In the sky, a line of fire extended rapidly from the south.

”Celestial God Mode!” The unimaginable speed was about to reach Malacca in a very short time. Feeling the pressure from beyond the horizon, Lyu Bu roared as he unleashed the Inner Qi refined from the Great Kun.

A ten-zhang tall Golden Armored Giant instantly appeared, then with Lyu Bu’s roar, suddenly transformed into a golden-red hue, and was fervently compressed into Lyu Bu’s body. After being compressed to almost the same height as Lyu Bu, he couldn’t force it into his body no matter how he exerted his will.

However, at this level of condensation, Lyu Bu’s exterior was already covered with a layer of glaze golden light. All the advantages of Celestial God Mode were under Lyu Bu’s control, with none of the oversized disadvantages. Although it hadn’t reached the level of unblocking the Essence, Qi, and Spirit pathways, his real strength had increased by thirty percent.

”It’s Mahesvara, is it? Surely, whether it’s faith, Fantasy God, or any other, as long as strong enough, it can be killed!” A menacing smile crossed Lyu Bu’s lips. At the moment he condensed his Inner Qi into a radiant glaze-like brilliance, all prayers around him disappeared. The next task was to kill this god!

”He is coming; everyone step aside.” Mahakasyapa, sensing the pressure coming from beyond the horizon, slowly stood up and sighed deeply.

”What of gods? Anyone who blocks me dies! Falling Sun!” At this moment, Lyu Bu felt no trace of restlessness, only a fervor for annihilating formidable foes in his eyes. He feared no challenge.

With Lyu Bu’s fervor, nine arrows flew out from the Precious Carved Bow, shooting straight into the sky. The Heaven and Earth Essence was drawn of its own accord by these arrows, and countless radiance ascended and entwined with the arrows.

As the nine arrows reached the apex of their ascent, they suddenly exploded, igniting the drawn Heaven and Earth Essence. A massive fireball instantly eclipsed the sun’s radiance, falling toward the Giant City established by the Kushan in Malacca!

That moment’s explosion nearly emptied the Heaven and Earth Essence for hundreds of miles around. Lyu Bu’s Divine Will burst forth, stabilizing all surrounding Heaven and Earth Essence. Apart from the burning Great Sun about to crash onto Malacca, there was no other Heaven and Earth Essence in this area.

”It’s time for us to make a move!” Gan Ning knew Lyu Bu was taking action when he saw the appearance of a new Great Sun in the distant sky. Lyu Bu’s action indicated that it was time for him to strike too. Even if this battle annihilated all nine thousand pirates, Gan Ning would ensure the Kushan remembered!

”Alas!” Mahakasyapa, seeing the formation of that Great Sun, silently raised his hand. A gigantic hand held the Great Sun aloft, but the nine arrows penetrated Mahakasyapa’s Inner Qi Giant Palm directly, shooting towards the Inner Qi Manifestation beside Mahakasyapa.

So-called faith, so-called Visualization, since all relies on human strength and Heaven and Earth Essence to achieve, then evaporation of Heaven and Earth Essence and elimination of relevant figures would force Mahesvara hidden here to appear!

Lyu Bu’s will, even a Millennia-Old Belief, he could obliterate if it was a rootless being. Facing mere Mahesvara, the Supreme God in charge of creation and destruction, without the backing of thousands’ belief, Lyu Bu was utterly fearless!
