Mythical Three Kingdoms

As the blood-red light pillar disappeared, Mahākāśyapa stood once again in the same place. However, unlike before, when there was a gentle Buddha-like aura, this time his gaze was strikingly similar to Lyu Bu's.

"You all leave here first." Mahākāśyapa spread his hands, and a group of Kushan Inner Qi manifestations were moved several hundred meters away.

Lyu Bu narrowed his eyes slightly, "You guys handle those ten fellows, I'll take care of him."

"We're supposed to deal with those ten?" Sunx Ce's always proud expression crumbled, "Are you kidding me? We're two against ten Inner Qi manifestations, and four of them are Ultimate Masters of Inner Qi Manifestation, plus there's no Cloud Suppression. Seriously?"

"You mean you can't beat them?" Lyu Bu suddenly asked with a smile.

"Nonsense, of course, we can't beat them. Those are ten Inner Qi manifestations — not only are they experienced, but they're also very strong. Even though each of them is quite injured, they aren't dead yet!" Sunx Ce decisively refused, "Are you kidding me, with just me and Zhou Tai to deal with ten Inner Qi manifestations? I'm not insane!"

"Go, even if you can't beat them, you can run. It's more dangerous here than fighting ten Inner Qi manifestations," Lyu Bu said with unusual kindness. "When I engage him, I can't watch out for you guys. That's why he's moved their people away — haven't you noticed they're still retreating further away?"

As Mahākāśyapa stood up, Lyu Bu sensed a great terror from him, a sensation that completely excited him. It had been years since he had felt such a presence from anyone.

But at the same moment that Mahākāśyapa stood, he casually moved the Kushan generals away, and Lyu Bu understood that Mahesvara was no longer Mahesvara. Although he had invaded Mahākāśyapa, essentially he was still him, his will had also been tainted by Mahākāśyapa.

A Breakthrough Level expert is not so easily taken down.

Witnessing someone transforming into another person was shocking for Lyu Bu, but more than this shock, Lyu Bu was interested in Mahākāśyapa's current strength. The opponent had been slightly weaker than him, but now with Mahesvara's will infused, how strong had he become? Could he surpass him?

Right now, Lyu Bu's body was already in a terrible state, but this wasn't a major issue. His Inner Qi and Spirit were abundant, and even without a body, Lyu Bu could continue to fight.

Upon hearing Lyu Bu's response, Sunx Ce decisively took off, riding the Flying Yellow Horse alongside Zhou Tai towards the group of Kushan generals. Taking on ten at once, Sunx Ce wanted to try, and if he couldn't win and chose to escape, the Flying Yellow Horse could quickly flee.

"Youping, stay away from me, I'm going to take on those ten!" Sunx Ce licked his lips, a bit excited after Lyu Bu's encouragement, and then dismissively told Zhou Tai.

Zhou Tai remained expressionless. He stamped his foot, suddenly exerting force, and the ground shattered as Zhou Tai transformed into a black shadow appearing instantly in front of the Kushan group. The Ultimate Master of Inner Qi Manifestation, who had previously suppressed Zhou Tai, reflexively thrust a spear at Zhou Tai.

Zhou Tai slightly dodged, using his arm to trap the opponent's spear shaft, then closed in, headbutting the enemy's helmet. The opponent's vision went black, his skull nearly shattered.

At the same time, Zhou Tai released the grip on the spear shaft, grabbed the opponent's neck, and with the other hand formed a fist, punching with enough force to shatter the sound barrier on the opponent's face. In an instant, the opponent's head exploded like a watermelon smashed by a big stick.

"What did you say?" Zhou Tai casually discarded the now headless Kushan General, turned his head to question Sunx Ce.

Zhou Tai was equivalent to a Refined Realm Breaker, and when Dian Wei hadn't reached the Refined Realm Breaker level, other Inner Qi manifestations who couldn't reach Sky Flying were easily killed. Besides, now with Heaven and Earth Essence bolstering his strength, Zhou Tai was even more ferocious than Dian Wei back in the day. These guys, unaware of Zhou Tai's true capacity, engaged in close combat and were ambushed by Zhou Tai — it was suicidal!

Zhou Tai's strike killed an Ultimate Master of Inner Qi Manifestation instantly, sending the Kushan Inner Qi manifestations scattering in fear. They weren't fools; the Body Cultivation protector god was something some of them had also trained in Kushan, albeit much harder than Qi Cultivation Visualization. However, its close combat prowess was extraordinary.

An advanced Inner Qi separation, punching a Breakthrough Level opponent, as long as they weren't also a Refined Realm Breaker, would be in grave danger if hit.

At this moment, the battlefield between Lyu Bu and Mahākāśyapa erupted in warfare. After evenly matched exchanges over ten moves, Lyu Bu decided without hesitation — his current state was not conducive to dragging on, prompting him to unleash all his Power of Heart Spirit.

Unleashing his full force, a substantial Golden Dragon emerged on the spinning Sky Piercer, and as he anticipated, pouring out all his power exceeded a certain limit, causing the previously colorless and transparent air to transform into a bluish-green stream with evident radiance, even showing some fluidity.

By this time it wasn't too conspicuous, but with the emergence of this phenomenon, the Kushan warriors instinctively turned to flee towards Malacca. They had seen this move before; had Lyu Bu aimed it at them then, only Mahākāśyapa might have survived, and even that was uncertain.

Therefore, upon seeing Lyu Bu perform this move again, the Kushan general immediately turned to flee, realizing this battle was far beyond their ability to handle. Even being hit by the slightest leftover plasma from the move could potentially be fatal for them.

"Run, Bofu!" Zhou Tai's hair stood on end at this moment, his refined realm breaker's perception of the surrounding environment making him acutely aware of the terror of the blue-green radiance. Even with his undying monster's physique, taking a direct hit might turn him to ashes.

As Zhou Tai shouted, Sunx Ce was already riding the Flying Yellow Horse far away, calling out to Zhou Tai as he fled. Only then did Sunx Ce realize the painstaking care of Lyu Bu; joining this fight would surely lead to death.

Fighting ten Inner Qi Manifestations, with the Flying Yellow Horse one could still escape. Though he wasn't sure what this thing truly was, intuition told Sunx Ce that getting hit would surely mean death.

Seeing this, Zhou Tai cursed silently and immediately unleashed his incredibly fast refined realm breaker escape speed, running as far as possible before the attack fully formed.

"I didn't expect you could still use such a move!" Mahakasyapa's eyes were extraordinarily heavy; even with his fusion of Mahesvara's faith and will, inheriting both abilities and Lyu Bu's battle will, facing this move made Mahakasyapa exceptionally fearful.

Even as he said this, he was running and increasing his defenses.

"Enough talk, die for me!" Lyu Bu swung the Sky Piercer. As the power reached its peak, the blue-green radiance forcibly reacted with the air due to its terrifying power, creating a red hue due to a gaseous chemical reaction, casting an eerily purple glow against the radiance.

With Lyu Bu's full force strike, the attack range, originally only a dozen meters, suddenly expanded to over a thousand meters. This time, Lyu Bu directly locked onto Mahakasyapa, giving him no chance to evade. The speed of the attack was like lightning, making evasion impossible.

In this situation, Mahakasyapa's only choice was to run and withstand, but with this formidably taboo power, the defense constructed from all his Inner Qi couldn't last long.

However, Lyu Bu found it difficult to fully master this power—what was initially a linear attack morphed into a conical shape as it was unleashed.

From afar, Sunx Ce watched a sliver of radiance hit the ground, instantly evaporating a spot and leaving behind a lava pit, feeling a strange fear. Even if he could endure this, a tiny sliver falling on the ground could hardly be resisted for long.

After the attack, both Lyu Bu and Red Hare were pushed to their limits. Lyu Bu's Power of Heart Spirit was nearly exhausted, and Red Hare also fared poorly after such a difficult battle; however, Mahakasyapa, who had previously stood proudly in the sky, had already disappeared.

Such a powerful move, it doesn't care about your strength. If you can't withstand it with Inner Qi defense, the only result will be vaporization. Even someone like Dian Wei, of refined realm breaker level, would likely be reduced to carbon if struck by such a move.

"Phew, that should have finished him off." Lyu Bu gazed at the sky where the blue-green radiance had completely vanished and felt the slightly scorching air. He used his already depleted Power of Heart Spirit to sense again, confirming that Mahakasyapa had likely been vaporized.

After ensuring he was thoroughly vaporized, Lyu Bu felt deeply satisfied. But the subsequent pain made Lyu Bu's entire face twitch; already severely injured, using such a self-damaging move with forced Power of Heart Spirit control pushed his state to the worst possible point.

"I..." Sunx Ce's eyes were almost popping out, staring at the previously floating spot of Mahakasyapa in the sky with a face of shock.

"Did he actually die, a Breakthrough Level?" Sunx Ce spoke in disbelief.

"Just that one move alone had enough leftover impact to evaporate a chunk of earth, leaving behind molten lava. A Breakthrough Level taking a hit and disappearing isn't unexpected." Zhou Tai said with a twitching mouth. Though it seemed unbelievable, it wasn't impossible for Lyu Bu, given his previous display, to vaporize the opponent with his attack.

"This is too terrifying," Sunx Ce muttered to himself.

"It's not the move that's terrifying; it's him that's terrifying," Zhou Tai pointed in Lyu Bu's direction. "The world's strongest, unquestionably justified."

"Indeed, he was powerful before; ever since shattering the Sky Dome and ascending, he's become stronger. But speaking of which, why has he descended again?" Sunx Ce curiously inquired.

"I don't know," Zhou Tai shook his head and said.
