Chapter 368: with translation of chapter title

"Ding! Kunzhong skill Split Earth effect two ultimate skill activated!"

"Current Kunzhong base martial power 102, weapon Split Earth Blade +1, battle steed Earth Tiger Steed +1, Five Elements Skill effect one triggers twice, martial power +4+4, effect two triggers, four attributes +1, Split Earth effect one triggers, martial power instantly +15, current martial power rises to 128!"

Xizhao approached silently from Lü Bu's rear, his Thunder Steed galloping like thunderous might, and the Thunder Axe in his hand accumulated violent thunderous aura.

"Thunderbolt Slash!"

With Xizhao's stern shout, a thick bolt of thunderous aura axe-light burst from his axe, aiming straight for Lü Bu's back heart.

"Ding! Xizhao skill Thunder effect two ultimate skill activated!"

"Current Xizhao base martial power 104, weapon Thunder Axe +1, battle steed Thunder Steed +1, Five Elements Skill effect one triggers twice, martial power +4+4, effect two triggers, four attributes +1, Thunder effect two ultimate skill triggers, martial power instantly +15, current martial power rises to 130!"

Lü Bu faced the three strongmen's encirclement without fear.

The black-red aura on his body blazed like flames, as if it could devour everything.

The Ghost God Dharma Aspect behind him was even more ferocious, moving with Lü Bu's will, waving the gigantic Heaven-Painting Halberd to meet the three's attacks.

"Good timing!"

Lü Bu let out a loud shout, gripping the Heaven-Painting Halberd with both hands, and swung it forward fiercely.

A black-red aura swept out, colliding fiercely with Beimiao's Furious Torrents Stab, Kunzhong's Split Earth Chop, and Xizhao's Thunderbolt Slash.

In an instant, it seemed only this splendid light and deafening roar remained between heaven and earth.

Four forces intertwined and surged in the air, forming a heart-stopping scene.

"Hmph! Want to hold me back? You're still too green!"

Lü Bu snorted coldly, moving like a ghost, instantly evading the three's encirclement, while his Heaven-Painting Halberd burst forth with even more brilliant black-red light.

Meanwhile, Li Yun Nan and Kunzhong also jointly unleashed the combination skill Flame-Earth Blazing Rock, heading toward the Wind and Cloud Arrow shot by Zhao Fengyun.

"Ding! Li Yun Nan skill Seal Demon effect five ultimate skill Flame-Earth Blazing Rock activated!"

"Current Li Yun Nan base martial power 105, weapon Flaming Blade +1, battle steed Flame Steed +1, Five Elements Skill effect one triggers twice, martial power +4+4, effect two triggers, four attributes +1, Seal Demon skill effect five ultimate skill Flame-Earth Blazing Rock triggers! Martial power instantly +20, current Li Yun Nan martial power rises to 136!"

"Ding! Kunzhong skill Split Earth effect ultimate skill Flame-Earth Blazing Rock activated!"

"Current Kunzhong base martial power 102, weapon Split Earth Blade +1, battle steed Earth Tiger Steed +1, Five Elements Skill effect one triggers twice, martial power +4+4, effect two triggers, four attributes +1, Split Earth effect one triggers, martial power instantly +20, current martial power rises to 133!"

"Ding! Current Five Elements Armor Combination Skill - Heaven and Earth Five Elements activated!"

Effect one: After this skill effect triggers, when five Five Elements Armor members are present, martial power +4; when four are present, +3; when three are present, +2.

Current Li Yun Nan martial power rises to 140!

Current Kunzhong martial power rises to 137!

Only a flash of fire light was seen, firelight shot up on the battlefield, earth and stones flew, and the fiery red flames intertwined with the ochre light.

The Flame-Earth Blazing Rock came like a meteor toward the Wind and Cloud Arrow.

However, the Wind and Cloud Arrow, bearing the power of wind and cloud, instantly struck this combination skill.

"Boom—"

A tremendous roar echoed on the battlefield as the Flame-Earth Blazing Rock and the Wind and Cloud Arrow's power collided, bursting out blinding light.

The powerful impact forced Li Yun Nan, Kunzhong, and their steeds beneath them to retreat several steps in succession.

At this moment, they felt their hands slightly numb, arms tingling with numbness, and their hearts shocked beyond measure.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Lü Bu engaged in a fierce battle with Wu Dongshan, Beimiao, and Xizhao.

His black-red aura blazed like flames, colliding with the three's ultimate skills, emitting a deafening roar.

On the battlefield, aura crisscrossed, and the fight among the four entered a white-hot stage.

"What a powerful arrow! Zhao Fengyun truly lives up to his reputation!"

Li Yun Nan sighed, his eyes filled with solemnity and admiration.

"We can no longer disperse our strength; we must join forces to withstand Zhao Fengyun's attack."

Kunzhong then took a deep breath and spoke in a low voice.

At this moment, Zhao Fengyun did not cease; he again drew several iron arrows from the wind-and-cloud quiver beside him, preparing to launch a second round of attack.

He knew that these five members of the Five Elements Armor team were strong, but only by uniting could they unleash their maximum strength.

He must press the attack to break their defenses; as soon as one person is broken, the formation of the five will naturally collapse.

By then, the threat of the Five Elements Armor unable to form would be greatly reduced, not worth worrying about.

At least, wanting to again encircle and kill a junior War God like Gong Sunyang.

Basically, it would be hard to accomplish.

After all, aside from Li Yun Nan, the other few members of the team, even if they activated their ultimate skills, would barely reach the level of an ordinary War God.

Meanwhile, Ran Min, who had been held up by Zhao Fengyun's few arrows, also rushed over, his whole body suffused with blood-red aura reigniting.

However, at that moment, Lü Bu suddenly roared, his black-red aura instantly surged, sending Wu Dongshan, Beimiao, and Xizhao flying back several steps.

His figure flickered, and he instantly appeared before Ran Min.

"Your opponent is me!"

Lü Bu said coldly, the aura on his body burning like flames, as if to incinerate all enemies blocking his front.

Seeing Lü Bu and Ran Min facing off, Kunzhong and others also stood ready, the tension between the sides reaching its peak.

Meanwhile, at this moment, before the Feather Forest Army formation far from the battlefield, Wei Qing, clad in armor, gazed solemnly ahead at the situation.

Beside him, battle flags fluttered, soldiers stood ready, awaiting the Chief Commander's order.

Wei Qing's gaze was deep; he was not only a fierce general on the battlefield, but also a wise man adept at assessing the situation.

The battle before them, though fierce, was not a decisive clash of main forces.

Their mission was not to fight to the death with the Night Sha Army, but to restrain it.

Therefore, at this critical moment, Wei Qing before the Feather Forest Army formation fell into contemplation.

His gaze deep, he looked afar at the opposing Night Sha Army's formation, weighing the pros and cons in his heart.

This Feather Forest Army unit on our side is merely an external aid of the Da Qian dynasty; there's no need to fight to the death with the Night Slaughter Army for the Da Qian dynasty.

The main force of the Da Qian dynasty should be Gu Changqing before Crying Dragon Pass. Therefore, Wei Qing only needs to share a bit of the pressure from the Night Slaughter Army for Gu Changqing.

Thinking this, Wei Qing took a deep breath, turned, and told the messenger: "Recall the troops at the sound of the gong!"

The messenger was stunned, then immediately obeyed and left.

As the order was passed down, the war drums gradually ceased, replaced by a clear metallic ringing.

The Feather Forest Army soldiers, hearing the sound, moved in an orderly retreat, their formation strict, showing no trace of panic.

At the same time, Zhao Fengyun before the Night Slaughter army also observed the movements of the Feather Forest Army.

His brows furrowed slightly, then immediately relaxed.

At this moment, Zhao Fengyun before the Night Slaughter army also felt an inclination to retreat.

The Night Slaughter detachment he leads did not aim to fight a decisive battle with the Feather Forest Army, but to hold them back, preventing them from reinforcing Crying Dragon Pass.

Now, the duel of the generals has ended; in fact, the difference in strength between the two sides is not that great.

Continuing the fight offers no guarantee of victory and may instead deplete our own strength.

This battle was merely a probe by both sides; each has greater objectives awaiting them.
