Chapter 229: The Three Heroes Gather
"Second brother, third brother, big brother is here!"
Watching Guan Yu and Zhang Fei join forces and still be suppressed by Lv Bu, Liu Bei could no longer hold back and hurriedly rushed over as well.
Liu Bei's background was actually much better than Zhang Fei and Guan Yu's. Not to mention his identity as a descendant of Prince Jing of Zhongshan, his own grandfather was a Filial and Incorrupt, serving as the Magistrate of Fan in Dong Commandery. You could say Liu Bei barely counted as a scholar from a humble background.
Since childhood, he not only studied literature but also practiced martial arts, but his talent was not that strong. However, after so many years, his martial Dao had also broken through to the Gang-Refining realm.
Outsiders often ignored Liu Bei's martial arts because of the bravery of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. To say Liu Bei had no martial power would be truly underestimating him.
It was just that his strength was still far behind an expert like Lv Bu.
His arrival did not bother Lv Bu in the slightest.
Previously, he had fought five Gang-Refining martial generals at once.
Now, fighting three at once, including two fierce generals of the Divine Treasury realm, did indeed bring him some pressure.
"Enjoyable!"
The long halberd slid, Gang Qi erupted wantonly, forcing the three to retreat repeatedly. The three Liu Bei brothers felt a chill in their hearts.
"Xuande, I will assist you!"
Another general came out from the coalition. When everyone saw it was Gongsun Zan, this person rode his horse and rushed toward the battlefield.
"Hmm!"
Seeing the person who arrived, Lv Bu frowned. The aura emitted by this person was much greater than Liu Bei's, and his strength was estimated to be at the fourth level of Gang-Refining.
Facing the three of Liu, Guan, and Zhang, he could still hold on, but if one more person were added, once they fought a battle of attrition with him, he might be held down.
His face turned cold, and the painted halberd in his hand slashed fiercely toward Liu Bei, who was the weakest. Seeing this, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu hurriedly stopped their hands and simultaneously leaned toward Liu Bei, blocking Lv Bu's terrifying strike for him.
Seeing this opportunity, Lv Bu clamped his legs on Red Hare, and Red Hare, as if they shared a heart, jumped away instantly, rushing out of the encirclement of the three.
"You Guandong rats, you only know how to bully people with numbers!"
Lv Bu had no desire to continue fighting. He did not want to be injured. Although with his strength, if he risked injury to kill Liu Bei and that Gongsun Zan, it would absolutely be no problem.
But killing the two had no great benefit for him; instead, it would cause Zhang Fei and Guan Yu to fight him to the death.
He came out to challenge just to strike at the coalition's morale, and now he had achieved his goal.
So he retreated directly. Red Hare's speed was extremely fast. Within a few breaths, he had arrived under Hulao Pass, grabbed the iron chain handed down from above, clamped Red Hare, and with a few leaps, returned to the top of the city wall.
"I didn't expect this to be the Three Heroes Fighting Lv Bu."
On the other side, Su Fan watched the battle between the two sides from beginning to end, feeling some emotion in his heart.
Lv Bu's strength made him feel wary. In this world, his strength would be even more terrifying than in the novel and history.
Because martial power is supreme, the role played by martial generals is greater. Lv Bu alone could even act as an army. Once a great battle starts, if there are no fierce generals who can block Lv Bu, and he rushes into the army to break up the army's formation, there will be no chance of victory in the battle.
At present, there are few fierce generals in his army who can block Lv Bu. Relying on Xu Chu alone really cannot block him, and as for Chen Dao and the others, their strength is still a few points lacking.
Of course, Su Fan will not have any conflict with Lv Bu for the time being, but Su Fan is afraid that when the time comes, in this world, just like in the novel, Dong Zhuo will die, and Lv Bu will run to Xuzhou.
This is a fierce tiger and a wild wolf, very dangerous.
You dare not easily win over the other party. After all, you are afraid of being bitten back. The other party has ambition and strong strength. If you do not have powerful strength, you will eventually be bitten back.
In the history of the novel, Cao Cao eventually did not choose to accept Lv Bu but killed him, just because Cao Cao could not be sure that he could subdue the other party.
It was not that he was afraid that Lv Bu would kill him like he killed Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo.
Given Cao Cao's strength at the time, there was simply no opportunity for Lv Bu; what he worried about was that if Lv Bu did not die, the Bingzhou Army under his command could not be fully integrated into his own ranks.
Once Lv Bu had any disloyal intentions in the future and rebelled, the blow to him would still be very great.
And in this world, Lv Bu is even more terrifying. Once he rebels temporarily, the consequences caused will be even greater.
"It seems I should win over Huang Zhong earlier. Even if Lv Bu really comes to Xuzhou in the future, I won't be afraid of him. With Huang Zhong to block Lv Bu, the rest will be Zhang Liao and Gao Shun."
Su Fan thought secretly in his heart, then looked at the coalition camp in the distance and smiled coldly.
With Lv Bu in Hulao Pass, if the coalition wants to take it down, they must fill it with lives. The warlords are constantly bickering, and wanting to break through Hulao Pass, unless Dong Zhuo retreats on his own.
"Let's go, let's go back first."
Su Fan had seen this great battle, and it was not a wasted trip.
Su Fan had been in this world for nearly ten years. In these years, although he was distracted by handling government affairs, he had never forgotten his cultivation.
It is a pity that this world is not the main world after all. Perhaps the laws are somewhat different. Although he has been promoted to the Foundation Establishment stage, immortal cultivation has become extremely slow.
Now he has only reached the second layer of Foundation Establishment. This speed is still not slow in the main world, but in Su Fan's eyes, it is very slow.
With the cultivation of the second layer of Foundation Establishment, in this world, just in terms of cultivation realm, it is almost equivalent to a martial artist at the early stage of Gang-Refining.
Of course, Su Fan's physical body has not progressed slowly. The tempering of the physical body has reached the internal viscera, comparable to a martial artist at the fifth level of Gang-Refining.
In terms of combat power, he is not inferior to Chen Dao at all.
It is just that his foundation is ultimately in immortal cultivation. He naturally hopes to break through a few more layers. In this way, when he returns to the main world, his realm and Dao practice will be sufficient, and he will only need spirit pills or spirit stones to break through quickly.
It is equivalent to re-cultivation.
As for the martial Dao physical body, even if it is practiced to be very strong, it can only be transformed into a soul seed. This soul seed can also improve Su Fan's strength.
But having successfully established the foundation, in the main world, at least in Donghai Commandery, his ability to protect himself has been greatly enhanced.
So he needs to think about the future. The higher the realm, the easier it will be for him to break through. Otherwise, Su Fan knows that even with a soul seed, it will be very difficult to improve his cultivation.
The soul Dao is a bit better, after all, it specializes in the divine soul, enhancing Su Fan's soul power.
So for the next focus, Su Fan will put it aside a bit. He will practice martial Dao, but it will no longer be the focus. After all, he knows that the talent of this body of his, not to mention compared to Lv Bu and Zhang Fei, is even a bit worse than Chen Dao and the others.
Wanting to practice to the Dharma Image realm is quite difficult. It is the soul Dao that might have a chance to peek into the Yin Spirit realm.
It is just that the inheritance of the soul Dao is even rarer. Don't look at the fact that their Gao clan has quite a few inheritances, but they are only enough to practice to the Soul Refining realm, and the follow-up depends on oneself to explore.
Only those top-tier noble families possess such inheritance.
"If there is a chance, I can go to the Shiqu Pavilion of the Imperial Library in Luoyang to take a look. I think as the library of the Shenhan, there must be quite a few inheritances." ===== CHAPTER 230 =====
