Chapter 226

Meng Zhang's voice was calm and firm, as if the clamor and chaos on the battlefield could not sway his mind.

His gaze locked onto the Soul-Hooking Army besieging the Ox Demon King and Yellow Turban Warriors, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

At Meng Zhang's command, the Three Monsters of Lion Camel Ridge, who had been stationed beside him as a reserve, swiftly sprang into action.

They were the Azure Lion, the White Elephant, and the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle—each a fearsome renown on the battlefield of Wu Province.

Under Meng Zhang's careful planning, they had remained hidden in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to strike.

At this moment, with Meng Zhang's order given, the Lion Camel Ridge Three Monsters held back nothing, each revealing their War God Vigorous Qi Dharma Aspect.

See, the leader Qin Shi let out a furious roar, and his thick azure vigor coalesced behind him into a colossal azure lion several zhang tall, its fur standing like steel needles, gleaming with a cold light.

Its limbs were thick and powerful, each step seeming able to shatter the earth.

Meanwhile, the White Elephant's grayish-white vigor coalesced behind it into a massive white elephant, its body towering like a mountain, its trunk like a rainbow, and its two tusks unmatched in sharpness.

Its skin was hard as iron, as if clad in thick armor, making it dreadful to behold.

As the strongest of the Lion Camel Ridge Three Monsters, the Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle's golden vigor formed a sky-covering, sun-obscuring golden peng, its divine might unmatched.

With a spread of its wings, wild winds howled, sand and stones flew, and its eyes blazed like two scorching fireballs, revealing a fierce killing intent.

As the Lion Camel Ridge Three Monsters each activated their War God Dharma Aspect, their power instantly surged severalfold.

They approached the battlefield center at an astonishing speed, and wherever they passed, whether the Great Qian troops or the Yellow Turban forces,

they were awed by this powerful demonic qi and made way, clearing a path.

Qin Shi, at the forefront of the charge, let out a long howl and led the rush into battle.

Behind him, the massive azure Dharma Aspect surged across the battlefield like an out-of-control trampling tank, overturning men and horses and sending flesh flying wherever it went.

The Great Qian and Yellow Turban soldiers ahead, though brave and skilled in combat, proved utterly feeble before the Azure Lion Dharma Aspect.

Their weapons left no mark on the Azure Lion Dharma Aspect's steel-hard hide, instead being easily torn apart by its sharp claws.

The White Elephant Dharma Aspect followed close behind, its trunk sweeping up several Great Qian soldiers into the air before slamming them down hard.

Every soldier flung to the ground suffered broken bones and torn tendons, vomiting blood as they died.

Moreover, the White Elephant Dharma Aspect's two tusks were like two sharp daggers, each swing capable of taking a living life.

Kong Jin's Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle Dharma Aspect wheeled and hovered above his head, its keen eyes fixed on every movement on the battlefield.

Once it spotted an opening, it would instantly swoop down, its talons like hooks and beak like a blade, tearing enemies to shreds.

Its speed was extreme; often the enemy hadn't even reacted before being decapitated.

Under the frenzied ravaging of the Lion Camel Ridge Three Monsters, they moved at an astonishing speed.

They raced straight for the battlefield center, dashing toward the direction where the Ox Demon King and Yellow Turban Warriors were being besieged.

The Leize Dragon Cavalry and Soul-Hooking Army that had originally been besieging the Ox Demon King and Yellow Turban Warriors fell into chaos under the ravages of the three War God Dharma Aspects.

Though brave, skilled in combat, and well-trained, they appeared utterly powerless against these three terrifying demon kings.

For a moment, corpses littered the field, blood flowed like rivers, and wails and roars rose and fell.

At that moment, dust choked the battlefield, and the cries of slaughter shook the heavens.

The three great Dharma Aspects of the Azure Lion, White Elephant, and Golden Winged Great Peng Eagle stood towering like three peaks, emanating a vigor that made the heart tremble.

And opposite them stood the final barrier—the elite of the Dao Soldiers, the Leize Dragon Cavalry!

Ding! Qin Shi's skill Azure Lion activates!

Azure Lion: jagged teeth and saw-tooth edges, square head and broad forehead. Its roar is like thunder, its gaze like lightning. It lifts its nose to the sky, crimson eyebrows fluttering with flame. This is the Azure Lion's exclusive skill.

Effect One: When this effect activates, martial power +5, can be activated up to three times.

Effect Two: When the user is not under the influence of any immunity-type skill, each time they suffer a negative skill effect, their own martial power increases by 1, up to three activations.

Effect Three: Upon activation, it can greatly reduce enemy morale, slightly decreasing the enemy's overall combat strength.

Effect Four: When falling into a state of dread or panic, the first three effects gradually fade as the state worsens, becoming completely ineffective. When the panic state is lifted, any activated effects can instantly trigger again.

Ding! Qin Shi's current base martial power is 107, weapon Azure Lion Swallowing Heaven Blade +1, warhorse Curly-maned Lion Chestnut +1, Azure Lion Effect One activated twice, martial power +5+5, Qin Shi's martial power now rises to 119.

The Azure Lion Dharma Aspect first launches an attack; he fiercely swings the huge steel blade in his hand, the blade light flashes, instantly tearing the air, bringing a fierce gust as it slashes toward the Lei Ze Dragon Cavalry's camp.

As the steel blade fell, a blade aura several zhang long instantly burst forth, tearing a deep gully into the ground.

The soldiers of the Lei Ze Dragon Cavalry hastily raised their weapons to block, but most of the Lei Ze Dragon Cavalry's strength has already been used to suppress the Yellow Turban Strongmen, who are also Dao Soldiers.

There is hardly any strength left behind them.

At this moment, those Lei Ze Dragon Cavalry troops behind, without the support of a military formation,

In the face of this powerful blade aura, their defenses appear so fragile that several soldiers were directly slain, severed head from body.

Ding! Kong Jin's skill Breaking Void activates!

Breaking Void: Flying, it shakes its eight wings; destroying, it levels with the heavens. This is a skill of the Peng bird clan, and its effects differ per person.

Effect One: Fighting spirit soars; when one has fighting spirit, martial power increases accordingly, +6 per activation, up to two times, can be activated consecutively.

Effect Two: In a duel, when affected by a negative skill effect, reflect half of that negative skill effect (round down for odd numbers).

Effect Three: In group battles, when affected by an enemy's negative effect, one can temporarily copy that negative effect, which disappears after combat. Note: After suffering different negative skill effects in the same battle, when facing many enemies as one, it can be activated up to two times; when facing one enemy as many, it can be activated at most once.

Effect Four: Extreme speed, a single wing flap covers ninety thousand li; who in the world can match you? When fighting someone whose skill contains the word 'speed', you gain extra immunity to half of their negative skill effects and suppress their speed-related skill effects.

Ding! Kong Jin's Breaking Void Effect One activated, martial power +6+6, Kong Jin's base martial power 108, weapon Nine Heavens Mixed Heaven Halberd +1, warhorse Cloud Journey Ten Thousand Li Steed +1, current martial power rises to 122.

Kong Jin's Golden-Winged Great Peng Dharma Aspect hovers above his head, moving with extreme speed, like a bolt of lightning darting across the battlefield.

When its double wings spread, they seem capable of covering the sky and obscuring the sun, casting the entire battlefield into shadow.

Its mode of attack is even more strange and variable.

Under the assault of the Golden-Winged Great Peng Dharma Aspect, the Lei Ze Dragon Cavalry soldiers behind, having lost the formation's support, could not organize any effective resistance and could only passively endure this terrifying attack.
