Chapter 178

Hmm, the more friends like this, the better.

Subsequently.

He began to examine the two items.

……

[Taiping Essential Arts] (Earth Scroll)

[Category: Special Treasure]

[Effect 1: Increases the bearer’s Intelligence by 10 points]

[Effect 2: Earthly Phase Support (The holder adapts to any terrain and gains an additional 30% combat power bonus from the terrain)]

[Effect 3: Phase Breaking (The holder can ignore the effects of Earthly Phase Arts)]

[Description: One of the three scrolls of the Taiping Essential Arts, the Earth Scroll, containing the Art of Earthly Phases]

……

[Divine Essence] (★★★★★)

[Quality: God-level Material]

[Description: An essence containing the original power of the world, which can be used to advance god-level substances. When the quantity reaches a certain level, it can break through the shackles of origin and achieve World-Breaking.]

[Current Quantity: 1]

The description of Divine Essence, like its name, was still so profound.

Not only could it be used to advance god-level substances, but when the quantity reached a certain level, it could break through the shackles of origin and achieve World-Breaking.

Although he didn't know what World-Breaking meant, Su Li had a hunch that it might be related to the demons the mysterious person spoke of.

Of course!

That level of matter was not something he could consider right now.

However, the Taiping Essential Arts (Earth Scroll) gave Su Li a pleasant surprise.

Even without the demonic power, it still had three effects.

It increased the bearer’s intelligence, allowed the bearer to gain Earthly Phase support, adapt to any terrain, and gain an additional 30% combat power bonus from the terrain.

It could also ignore the effects of Earthly Phase Arts.

It could be said to be very practical.

Especially the Earthly Phase support and adapting to any terrain.

This meant that from now on, even on water, mountains, or even swamps, he could fully exert his combat power without being affected by any terrain, and also gain an additional 30% combat power bonus.

It could be said to be very powerful.

It could also ignore the effects of Earthly Phase Arts.

From now on, Mom would never have to worry about him being hit by the enemy’s major Earthly Phase arts again.

In short, Su Li was very satisfied.

···

Although Zhang Bao had escaped, obtaining the Taiping Essential Arts (Earth Scroll), Divine Essence, and a massive amount of war merit made this trip to Julu completely worthwhile.

At this time.

Ju Shou, Liu, Guan, Zhang, Pan Feng, and Changshan Prefect Deng Song walked over.

Although this surprise attack on Julu was a victory.

The price paid was quite heavy.

Apart from these few generals, the rest of the Han army troops were almost completely wiped out.

Even Ju Shou, Liu, Guan, Zhang, Pan Feng, and Changshan Prefect Deng Song were exhausted, on the verge of collapsing at any moment.

But even so, they dragged their exhausted bodies and slowly approached Su Li.

As soon as they reached Su Li, whether it was Liu, Guan, Zhang, or Ju Shou, Pan Feng, and Deng Song, they all bowed deeply to Su Li and cupped their hands: "Many thanks to Lord Su (Brother Su) for saving our lives this time, otherwise we would not have long to live!"

"Indeed! If it weren't for Brother Su displaying your divine might, wiping out the demon soldiers, and repelling Zhang Bao, we would have been worn down to death!"

"That scoundrel Zhang Bao was truly too strange, knowing such demonic arts. Fortunately, Brother Su was here, otherwise the consequences would have been unthinkable!"

"Brother Su is truly righteous. In such a dangerous situation, you still led your troops to kill your way back. I, Zhang Fei, am impressed!"

"Brother Su’s divine might, Yunchang admires you!"

They spoke one after another, as if they were in a praise group, even Brother Guan Er joined the chat.

Su Li really wanted to say that this time it was mainly thanks to the mysterious person’s help, but when he turned to the side, the mysterious person was nowhere to be seen.

Even Ju Shou, Liu, Guan, Zhang, and the others had never noticed the mysterious person’s presence.

It could be said that he was very mysterious!

There was no help for it, so Su Li waved his hand at the crowd and said cockily: "Basic operation, nothing to be impressed about."

Sigh, in the end, he was the one who bore it all.

Please subscribe, please send flowers, please rate!!!

With Zhang Bao’s escape and the demon soldiers wiped out, the entire Julu City was officially captured.

However, the price paid was still very heavy.

The Han army troops were almost completely wiped out, and even Ju Shou, Liu, Guan, Zhang, Pan Feng, and Changshan Prefect Deng Song were exhausted.

Unable to rush back to Yecheng to provide support immediately, they had to stay in Julu City to recover their state.

Among these people.

Su Li, Zhao Yu, and the Blood Cavalry were actually the most relaxed, still having the energy to loot the entire Julu City.

One must know that Julu City, as the base camp of the Yellow Turbans, contained massive amounts of resources.

It was precisely because of these resources that Zhang Jiao sent Zhang Bao back to defend Julu.

In this way.

Even if the attack on Yecheng failed, they could return to the Julu base and plan again.

Now that Julu City had fallen, the resources inside naturally became ownerless objects.

Anyone could take them.

Besides this.

Julu also had quite a few Yellow Turban reserve personnel.

These people were commoners who had just joined the Yellow Turbans, did not have much faith, could not change their profession to Yellow Turban, and did not participate in this great battle.

But they had also been bewitched and were very hostile toward the Han army.

Coupled with their large numbers, there were a full 100,000 of them in the city.

After the battle ended, they all gathered together, ready to make a move.

If they were pure Yellow Turban bandits, they would just be slaughtered.

When the battle was still ongoing, no one would care if these commoners were truly Yellow Turbans or if they had been bewitched.

As long as they dared to move, they would be killed!

But now that the war was over, if they were to slaughter all these commoners who had just joined the Yellow Turbans... let alone Ju Shou and the others, even Lu Zhi, the North Central General who received the order, would not have the guts to issue such an order!

After all, these were 100,000 human lives!

Once slaughtered easily and the news spread, they would likely be condemned by the whole world and nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

This crime.

Ju Shou could not afford it, and neither could Pan Feng, Changshan Prefect Deng Song, or Liu, Guan, and Zhang.

But if they were left alone, with their current troop strength, they could not manage them at all.

Once they left, this place might become a Yellow Turban nest again.

It was a bit of a dilemma.

However, when Ju Shou and the others saw that group of restless reserve Yellow Turbans and were worried about how to deal with them, Su Li stood up: "Are you all troubled by these Yellow Turban personnel?"

Ju Shou nodded and said: "Exactly."

"Although Julu has been captured by us, with our current situation, I fear it is difficult to settle these 100,000 Yellow Turban personnel."

Although their mission was to surprise attack Julu, which had now succeeded.

They could very well ignore these commoners who had just joined the Yellow Turbans.
