Chapter 272: The Long River of Sword Qi
In fact, most of the military and civilian ministers in Fulong City had discussed it privately.
I guess the empress and that hero Lu have been traveling together for a long time, so they must have a very close relationship, and they may have already fallen in love.
The rumors circulating in the world may not be false. After all, there is no smoke without fire.
Many military and civilians are looking forward to this.
We look forward to Her Majesty the Empress marrying this unparalleled national hero in a grand ceremony, and preferably making him her empress.
After all, having a super genius with huge potential supporting the empress in the court will definitely make the strength of the Great Zhou go to a higher level, and it is not impossible to restore it to its peak period.
Lu Bei raised his eyebrows and smiled at Jiang Nan who was looking at him, then looked away.
At this time, the old man was still muttering to himself, "The new emperor of the Great Zhou? King Wu Jiang Nan?"
He was just a mortal with weak eyesight, so he couldn't see what Jiang Nan and the others in the distance looked like. So, with a puzzled look on his face, he looked up and asked expectantly, "Could it be that Princess An Cheng of the previous dynasty has successfully restored the country?"
Lu Bei said calmly, "Exactly."
The old man's face suddenly became excited and delighted, "It really is her, that's great, that's great."
Lu Bei smiled faintly, "It seems you have heard of her too."
The old man sighed, "I was once a retired Imperial Academy scholar, and I met the princess when she was young. After the fall of Shangjing, I couldn't stand the brutal rule of the Great Mang, so I fled with my family to the fishing village in the East China Sea. I never expected that the Great Zhou would be restored, and the Zhou people would have a home again."
"It's a pity that I'm the only one left now. My family members were killed by those even more damnable Dongli bandits. If I hadn't been able to speak two languages, I would have died too."
"I thank you young man for your bravery in killing the evil thief from Dongwei."
Lu Bei felt sorry for the old man's plight, but he just nodded and said, "Go home with the merchant ship. I'll help you kill more of these Dongwei people."
"Okay, okay, thank you very much, young man," the old man said excitedly.
After saying that, he began to swim towards the merchant ship in the distance.
Lu Bei looked at the warships again, raised his eyebrows slightly and sneered, "There really are some who are not afraid of death."
I saw a general on the distant Dongwei Continent giving orders and launching a large number of warships.
This time there were more than fifty warships, twice as many as before. Each warship could accommodate four hundred people, so more than twenty thousand people were dispatched at once.
This time their weapons and equipment were more advanced, with huge crossbows, catapults, and some catapults burning with raging flames.
Lu Bei began to step slowly in the air, one step was ten feet, three steps were a hundred meters, and he slowly approached the warships.
His eyes were burning, his fighting spirit was high, and he kept muttering, "If you want to kill me, I hope you can call all your troops, so that I can have a chance to kill them all."
As he walked, the magic ring in his hand shone brightly, and countless essences on the sea surface transformed into wisps of blood light and rushed towards his Shura magic ring.
With this magic ring, he is not afraid of large crowds. Instead, he looks forward to having more people come, so that he can wield his sword with full force and absorb blood and energy unscrupulously.
While walking north, he looked back and found that the old man had already boarded the merchant ship and seemed to have knelt down to Jiang Nan. Then Jiang Nan and others returned to the boat and began to set off north in an orderly manner.
Jiang Nan waved to him before leaving.
Lu Bei blew her a kiss.
The distance was too far, and only Jiang Nan and Jiang Zhuo could see Lu Bei's flying kiss.
Jiang Zhuo quickly turned around and pretended not to see it.
Jiang Nan's face flushed instantly, then he turned his head blankly and looked at the purple-green sword in his hand, sitting alone in the boat, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lu Bei smiled and turned to look at the Donglei warships that had rushed to his feet.
They had already launched the catapults and at the same time drawn their bows and arrows, and thousands of arrows were firing at the same time.
Lu Bei snorted coldly, then fell directly from the sky, turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed towards a warship.
"boom!"
A sword with strong thundering energy slashed forward and slashed at Lu Bei the moment he stepped on the warship, crushing the warship that could accommodate 400 people into pieces.
Countless arrows and stones missed their target, and four or five hundred people were trampled by this kick and sent flying.
Lu Bei quickly drew his sword and slashed, whooshing, whooshing, the swift sword energy cut all four hundred people in half.
Lu Bei continued to charge forward and rushed to another warship with the force of thunder. In the same way, one kick, one sword, and one ship of blood mist.
"Swish swish!"
At the same time, he released three flying swords, each of which rushed towards the surrounding warships and strangled the living creatures.
This was a massacre, and no one could stop Lu Bei for a moment.
Lu Bei treated them as targets for swordsmanship training and as dolls for sword flying training.
Sometimes he would slash out a sky full of stars with his sword, sometimes he would unleash terrifying thunder with his sword, and sometimes he would stir up a hundred feet of golden light with his sword.
The army of 20,000 was rapidly decreasing.
The north side of the road is getting closer and closer to the land.
Until the end, Lu Bei slashed out a surging river of sword energy with one sword. Within the river were thunder and lightning, leaping flames, endless blue starlight flashing, and three flying swords in front of him turned into indestructible dragon horns.
The long river of sword energy swept across everything. With one slash of the sword, the sea was in ruins, and the remaining 5,000 people all died under this sword.
Lu Bei stood in the void, quietly waiting for the blood and energy around him to rush in madly.
If an ordinary super master in the Divine Wandering Realm were to use this kind of large-scale terrifying killing move, he would probably be exhausted and have used up most of his spiritual power after using just one move.
Lu Bei just took a deep breath, and the air in his body surged. The magic ring started to work secretly, replenishing the spiritual energy that was depleted in his body.
With the purifying power of the Fallen Holy Flame, he can now absorb the energy transformed by the divine ring without restraint.
However, he still only regarded this external force as a source of reserve power, either to temporarily make up for the deficit or to release it all at once to increase his combat power. He had no intention of relying on it to advance to a higher realm.
He always believed that this kind of improvement would definitely lead to a superficial state of mind, so he hoped to take every step down to earth, step by step to the peak.
A tall building starts from the ground. The more solid the foundation, the taller and more stable the building can be.
When Lu Bei absorbed Murong Yuan's divine infant body and advanced to Xiaoyao, he had been worried for a long time. He was always worried that there would be something wrong with his Tao foundation. Fortunately, nothing was discovered in the end.
Although this method of absorbing external force to increase his power was fast and felt great, Lu Bei gave up this idea after that incident.
As for the rapid promotion that the Fallen Holy Flame later achieved by devouring the Phantom Spirit Flame and returning to his body to feed back to him, Lu Bei had no worries at all.
After all, the strange fire is the purest flame energy in the world, and there will be no problem no matter how much it is absorbed.
Besides, we can't stop the evolution of the Fallen Holy Flame.
The stronger it is, the stronger you will be.
After Lu Bei controlled the magic ring to absorb all the blood essence in the air, he turned to look towards the land.
He found that the port on land was empty.
The troops were scared away.
Lu Bei sneered, and the next moment, he used the Divine Taixu Step to fly.
He left behind a series of white phantoms in the void, as fast as a startled wild goose.
In two breaths, he fell from the sky and stood steadily on the land of Dongli Island.
He looked up and found that the army at the port began to retreat. Those Dongwei people who did not retreat in time were still watching from behind. When they saw Lu Bei's figure, they were frightened and ran away even more hastily and embarrassedly.
Lu Bei sneered and rushed forward with his sword.
He ran with a loud laugh, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Little cubs of Dongwei, the wolf is coming!"
