Chapter 423
"Ultimate Skill—Ghost-God Absolute Heaven Slash!"
The moment the halberd light slashed down, it was blessed by the ghost-god image and instantly expanded several times.
Then, a blood-colored halberd light about a hundred meters long appeared on the battlefield, easily destroying the ultimate moves released by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and slashed at the two with its remaining power.
In the end, even with the two of them joining forces, they could only block that remaining power and retreat a few steps themselves.

A blood-colored halberd radiance nearly a hundred meters long appeared on the battlefield, easily shattering the ultimate techniques unleashed by the combined efforts of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and struck toward the two with its remaining force.
In the end, even with the two joining forces, they could only block that residual force and were forced to retreat several steps.
"How... how is this possible!"
At that moment, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were stunned.
The ultimate techniques they had unleashed simultaneously had been blocked and repelled by a single strike from Lu Bu’s halberd.
The magnitude of the disparity was unimaginable.
Clearly, this showed that even with their combined strength, they were no match for Lu Bu.
"Wrong... why is Lu Bu so powerful?"
Su Li, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, was also startled, his expression one of disbelief.
Because if he remembered correctly, in the first half of his life, before the plot reached Hulao Pass, when the three heroes fought Lu Bu, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were enough to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Lu Bu, and to a certain extent, could even suppress him.
How did the situation end up like this today?
Even with the two joining forces, they were repelled by Lu Bu?
"Is that so?"
Su Li was not stupid; after deep thought, an incredible speculation immediately arose in his heart...
Was it caused by him?
Everyone knew.
Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei had risen up to resist during the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
It was through the plot of the Yellow Turban Rebellion that they were able to grow rapidly and gradually reveal their true edge.
Especially Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who killed countless enemies during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, their sharpness fully exposed.
But!
In this life, because of his arrival, the Yellow Turban Rebellion had been ended in a very short time.
Before Dong Zhuo and the others had even officially appeared, Zhang Jiao had been indirectly slain by him using the power of the Heavenly Book fragments, which directly caused the Yellow Turbans to collapse prematurely.
This directly affected the development of the three, Liu, Guan, and Zhang, leaving them with no Yellow Turbans to feed their experience.
Furthermore, the Heavenly Book fragments might have originally fallen into the hands of the three, enhancing their power.
But instead, all these opportunities were converted into Su Li’s own rapid growth in power.
This subsequently triggered a butterfly effect, such as Hua Xiong being slain by him and the three being captured at Sishui Pass before they could appear, which directly limited their strength.
Especially Guan Yu, who was not like in his past life, where he had already reached his peak upon appearing.
Looking at Lu Bu, on the other hand.
His own active zone was the Bingzhou region, where he fought against foreign tribes outside the borders year-round, completely unaffected by players or the plot.
Now that he had appeared, he was naturally at his peak state.
It was just like a certain 5v5 battle game; when things were evenly matched in the lane, but the resources were eaten by other lanes, naturally, one could not play.
When Guan Yu and Zhang Fei fought the fully developed Lu Bu with their undeveloped forms, this moment was bound to happen.
Although Guan Yu and Zhang Fei could still block Lu Bu, they were very reluctant.
Defeat was only a matter of time.
It was just unclear whether adding Liu Bei to the mix under these circumstances could change the tide of battle.
The battle continued.
As Lu Bu grew furious and the image of a ghost god formed, the combined strikes of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were unable to resist Lu Bu’s fierce output!
Ten rounds!
Thirty rounds!
Fifty rounds!
……
Thunderous sounds of the three colliding echoed constantly, accompanied by layers of air waves.
And at the core of the three.
Every few rounds, Lu Bu’s momentum and power grew along with the ghost god image, rising by a notch.
Every few rounds, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei would also rise by a notch under Lu Bu’s coercion.
However, when this pressure accumulated to a certain point.
After every round.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei felt they could no longer hold on; their morale plummeted, and they were in constant danger of defeat!
At the same time.
Seeing the battlefield, even with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei joining forces to present a combined attack, they were still suppressed by Lu Bu alone; Liu Bei, watching from the sidelines, gritted his teeth.
Originally, he thought that if one of his two sworn brothers attacked, they might not be able to take down Lu Bu, but if both attacked together, they surely could.
As long as they took down Lu Bu, the three could stand firm before the warlords, and later, breaking Luoyang and saving the Son of Heaven would all be meritorious deeds.
But who would have thought that this would be the situation today.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, working together, could not gain the slightest advantage in Lu Bu’s hands and were being suppressed everywhere.
Truly at his wit's end, Liu Bei weighed his options and had no choice but to draw his unique divine weapon—the Twin Swords—and charge onto the battlefield!
Three against one, even if they won, it would not be an honorable victory.
But Liu Bei could no longer care about that; Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were clearly showing signs of defeat, and if he did not go up to assist, perhaps today he would truly have to fulfill the oath of the Peach Garden, not seeking to be born on the same day, but seeking to die on the same day!
