After breaking two chains, the Heavenly Halberd shook violently, and a series of sharp noises rang out from it!
The entire chamber was flooded with an intense cold. The Heavenly Halberd vibrated intensely, but the remaining seven chains did not budge. Finally, the Heavenly Halberd calmed down.
Lu Bu opened his eyes slowly, and a sharp fighting intent flashed across his pupils!

There’s actually a martial technique and a cultivation technique sealed in the halberd! Just looking at one spot on a leopard, one could easily identify the whole animal; although only the first two layers are available, when compared to my current cultivation technique, mine is completely worthless!
Lu Bu muttered to himself as he held the Heavenly Halberd in his hands.
The huge halberd weighted over 30,000 jin, perfectly fitting Lu Bu’s battle style. Just by holding it in his hand, he could feel a deep connection with it as if it was a part of his arm.
Lu Bu sat down cross-legged, resting the Heavenly Halberd against his leg as he started cultivating the technique in the halberd.
The cultivation technique recorded in the Heavenly Halberd was called the Matchless Art; not matchless under the heavens, but matchless battle will!
Although only the first two layers were available now, as long as he broke through the current realm, the latter parts would naturally be unlocked.

Fortunately, I can still alter the existing Qi in my body using the Matchless Art; otherwise, I would have to cultivate from the start.

Lu Bu closed his eyes, and the first two layers of the Matchless Art appeared in his mind. The fact that he didn’t need to give up his existing cultivation and cultivate again from the start was a great relief for him.
From this point alone, one could see the extraordinariness of the Matchless Art.
Changing the cultivation technique was not such a simple matter.
To be able to rely on a mediocre cultivation technique to reach the peak of the Hundred Year realm within several decades was already enough to tell how talented Lu Bu was. Thus, in just less than half an hour, he’d already finished comprehending the first two layers of the Matchless Art.
As Lu Bu cultivated, a strand of silverish white energy slowly appeared, only as thick as a strand of hair.
But this strand of energy was akin to a bright radiance in Lu Bu’s mind!
The silverish white energy was formed by essence Qi and blood Qi merging together. It was devoid of impurities, and was more than two times purer than the energy in his body!
Strand by strand, the energy in Lu Bu’s body turned into the same silverish white energy. A layer of black substance was constantly expelled from his body, emanating a disgusting stench.
However, Lu Bu was completely engrossed in his cultivation, and did not notice the dirt on him at all.
The silvery white energy grew more and more, akin to countless huge halberds which surged through his body.

Huff…

Lu Bu’s face instantly twisted in agony as the sharp energy washed through every inch of his blood and flesh. Every single cell felt as if pierced through by ten thousand arrows.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Bu felt as if his soul was going to collapse. His entire body was wrecked with so much pain that it’d become numb. Suddenly, his body shivered intensely as though he was a man dying of thirst in the desert who suddenly received a cup of ice cold water.
All the cells in his body were rejoicing as the silvery white energy circulated endlessly and was absorbed.

Is it over?

Lu Bu opened his bloodshot eyes. The moment he spoke, he jumped in fright; his voice had turned incredibly hoarse.
He glanced briefly at the dirt on his body, but did not care about it. After experiencing the intense pain, even the unbearable stench on his body was not worth a mention at all.
His mental power surged out and enveloped his body, allowing him to see all the changes clearly!

Is this really my body?!
Lu Bu murmured to himself, shocked.
Although he’d known that there would be changes, he hadn’t expected that they would be so drastic!
Every single cell in his body was crystalline and clear, and held a tremendous amount of power. His five organs and six viscera were covered in numerous layers of multicolored light.
His blood Qi was as boisterous as a furnace, and Lu Bu could feel that even without using the energy in his body, he could rely on the strength of his body to defeat regular Fourth Layer Hundred Year realm experts!
His previously white bones were now gleaming with a shiny silver sheen, and were incomparably tough. Countless profound patterns interwove along his bones.
The new energy could be controlled with ease, and its purity was over five times that of his previous cultivation technique’s!

Although I haven’t advanced in my cultivation realm, and instead fell back to the primary stage of the Hundred Year realm Fourth Layer, my strength is much higher than it was at my peak state!

Lu Bu stood up slowly, and a layer of silvery white energy instantly flowed along his skin, removing the countless impure dregs.

Peng!

All his injuries had disappeared, and his skin also turned fairer. Stretching his hands out, he clenched his fists, causing a loud bang to ring out as if the air itself had been crushed!
Lu Bu’s face lit up with joy. Lifting up the heavy Heavenly Halberd, he swung it lightly!

Pu!

A silvery white crescent-shaped light flashed out, leaving a deep scar on the walls of the secret chamber.
But before he could test his strength further, he suddenly felt the world spin, and when he opened his eyes again, he’d arrived at the waist of the mountain.
It was not just Lu Bu. About a dozen other people had appeared alongside him at the same instant, each holding a different weapon.
Everyone looked around with shock before it turned into wariness.

Boom!


Ka-cha!

The mountain suddenly rumbled without any warning. Without any hesitation, everyone flew into the air.
They could see the mist around them disappearing, and loud shattering sounds rang out from all over the mountain!
Several hundred people who were still in the midst of their trial tumbled out from the mist. Their faces were blank, and many of them carried injuries of varying degrees.

The weapons must have all been taken away by those dozen-plus people, causing all of us to fail!
one of the sharper-eyed cultivator shouted when he saw Lu Bu’s group.
This one shout instantly caused the atmosphere to become charged.
The several hundred cultivators who had come out empty-handed were all looking at them with labored breaths and greedy eyes.
With a single glance, Lu Bu and the rest could see that the situation was not right. Among them, one of the cultivator who was a vice team leader of a faction reacted quickly. The leader was a sworn brother of his, and they’d both saved each other’s life before. Seeing the rest turning aggressive, he instantly cried out,
Where are the people from the Scarlet Flames Gang?!


The Scarlet Flames Gang is here!
over a hundred voices instantly chorused with shocking might.
The others’ faces changed instantly. This Scarlet Flames Gang was not a good opponent to provoke. Thus, they could only watch as the vice leader reunited with the Scarlet Flames Gang.

Where are the experts of my Crow Wood Sect? Hurry up and receive me!

The leaders of various powerful factions soon came out, and escorted away their own experts, causing Lu Bu and the rest who had no backing to feel extremely aggrieved.
Just like that, only seven people remained of the original group. The rest had all been fetched safely back to their respective groups.
Apart from Lu Bu, the other six all had unwilling looks in their eyes. They did not step out even though the leaders of their factions had come out to receive them.
That was because they knew that once they went back to their factions, the divine weapons they’d received would no longer have anything to do with them.

How strange, could it be that these people did not get a cultivation technique from their weapons?

Lu Bu evaluated the six people around him, and after sensing their auras, he felt somewhat strange, but he didn’t directly ask.

A bunch of short-sighted wolves; we’ve spent such a large amount of resources just to groom you all, but now that you’ve received a little bit of benefits, you won’t listen to my orders anymore?!

The formation master from before stood out, and, with a righteous air, said,
In my opinion, we should kill them directly. To keep this kind of traitors around, who knows when they would turn around to bite their brothers one day?
He smiled cunningly and waved his sleeves,
In that case, why don’t we join hands and deal with the few of them? As for the weapons, they’ll go to whoever manages to take them?

Everyone shivered slightly as they looked at the old man. They all made a mental note to stay far away from this old fellow in the future. No one could predict when this old sack of bones would suddenly plot against them.

I have no opinion.


Agreed.

The four leaders turned around and nodded. They naturally would not let the nice fat meat in their hands get away.

You’ve all seen it for yourselves. Let’s not mention the kind of treatment they showed to us normally. But now that we’ve obtained our own treasures, they wish to snatch away our fortunes. We should all ally together, and kill our way out!


Indeed, everything will be resolved once we kill our way out!


There’s already no importance in talking about who’s right and who’s wrong. We definitely cannot just sit and wait for our deaths. There are too many opponents; we need to work together!

The six experts stood together, and looked towards the silent Lu Bu.
Lu Bu looked around him, and a cold smile slowly surfaced on his face. Then, he took a heavy step outwards, and cried out,
FIGHT!


Fight!


Fight!

Powerful battle intent radiated from Lu Bu’s entire body. He seemed like a god of war that’d descended onto the land of mortals. It was as if he had a natural talent to influence and infect the people around him, rousing their hot bloodedness. The other six couldn’t help but grip their weapons tightly and howl to the sky as well.

Impetuous bastards; kill!

The horde of several hundred cultivators charged forward, wanting to surround Lu Bu’s group!

Die for me!
Taking advantage of the fact that he wasn’t surrounded yet, Lu Bu charged in a direction like a sharp sword, bringing the other six behind him as he slashed out with the Heavenly Halberd!

Dang!

A peak-level Hundred Year realm expert raised a bronze hammer to block Lu Bu’s strike. But before he could react, he was chopped in half along with his hammer!
A huge battle erupted, and Lu Bu grew stronger and stronger as he fought. It was as if his strength was endless, and his battle intent shot into the skies!
Every time he slew an opponent, a stream of energy would surge over from the Heavenly Halberd, supporting him with more strength.
The group fought and moved at the same time, and the other six surrounded and protected Lu Bu on the side. Strangely, none of them felt that there was anything wrong with their actions.
Four half-step Thousand Year King realm experts stood not far away, watching the slaughter with their brows tightly knitted together.

Where did that fellow come out from? To think that he’s actually so strong. Does brother Jiang recognize him?

A cold aura surged from the body of one of the half-step Thousand Year King expert as he watched his men getting cut down like cabbages.

Brother Tao, before we stepped into the mountain, this person already made quite a scene,
a tall and muscular man said cooly without even turning around. His eyes blazed with a strong fighting intent.

So it’s that person. Looks like he’d hidden himself quite deeply. From the looks of it, his strength is not only not weak, it’s probably even a bit stronger than ours!
the cold-looking middle-aged man said as he narrowed his eyes. He looked like a venomous snake hiding in a dark corner, awaiting its prey.
