Mythical Three Kingdoms-Chapter 1567 - 1510: The Path Is Carved by Oneself

"Inner Qi Manifestation is very powerful, it absolutely suppresses Qi Refining to Gang. Qi Refining to Gang is definitely not a match for Inner Qi Manifestation. Even with Cloud Qi suppression, the quality of Inner Qi Manifestation far exceeds Qi Refining to Gang. Without becoming Inner Qi Manifestation, you can never be considered a master." Guan Ping muttered, repeating the words his father Guan Yu had taught him.

In the past, Guan Ping believed these words were true; he dared not and could not deny his father's words. But the fact now is that he killed an Inner Qi Manifestation General, one at the level of Hua Xiong.

Without any external aid, the opponent's performance and momentum were at their peak, yet he killed the opponent. Well, it wasn't considered difficult, nor easy, but he indeed had extra strength.

"Indeed, the most truthful thing father said was: the path is carved by oneself!" Guan Ping suddenly laughed, and his body's joints emitted a series of crackling sounds. The wound on his right arm was healing at a visibly fast pace, as the serene Inner Qi frantically dispersed.

With a casual swing of the saber, a large group of Miscellaneous Hun was directly beheaded, blood mixed with the Essence Qi splattered, displaying cruelty at that moment.

"My accumulation will be entirely transformed at this moment, mental and faith fluctuations align highly, Inner Qi begins to link with Heaven and Earth Essence, and Heaven and Earth Essence starts rendering the body. Have I already reached this stage?" Guan Ping calmly perceived the changes within himself.

Different from others' insufficient accumulation, Guan Ping stood on the shoulders of many, including Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Xuu Chu, and others. The rendering of the body by Heaven and Earth Essence for others may take a dozen breaths, but for Guan Ping, it takes Half an Incense Stick Time.

Though the rendering by Heaven and Earth Essence did not reach the cellular level, for Guan Ping, it penetrated the marrow. During the period of this rendering, akin to unlimited Inner Qi, Guan Ping was essentially invincible under Cloud Qi.

"Follow me to slaughter the leader of the Miscellaneous Hun." Guan Ping coldly swung his saber, and within several meters range ahead, the Miscellaneous Hun were shredded by saber Qi, and then Guan Ping coldly told the trusted aide behind him.

"[Heaven and Earth Essence continually renders the body, during this time, the Heaven and Earth Essence entering my body is basically equivalent to my Inner Qi, and due to continuous rendering, during this period, Inner Qi for me is virtually limitless.]"

Guan Ping swung the saber, raising a large amount of blood, silently contemplating his current state. In this world, perhaps only he could have so much time to feel his own changes at the height of breaking through Inner Qi Manifestation.

"[Maybe the path after Inner Qi Manifestation should be Inner Qi advancing towards Heaven and Earth Essence. The present situation is merely my Inner Qi mixed with the attributes of Heaven and Earth Essence.]"

Another swing of the saber, within nearly a meter range, raising a lot of blood, Guan Ping's mind began to contemplate the road ahead further.

"[If the future path is for Inner Qi to become like Heaven and Earth Essence, then the present itself should be Heaven and Earth Essence, which should be stronger. But even with nearly infinite Inner Qi during breakthrough, the destructive power is not very exaggerated. Using Heaven and Earth Essence, it is more significantly assimilated by cloud Qi.]"

With both hands gripping the Green Dragon Saber's hilt, a swing under a cold and arrogant look drew blood mixed with Azure Radiance, making the Hu people feel cruelty for the first time.

"[The destructive power of Heaven and Earth Essence is obviously stronger than Inner Qi; however, Heaven and Earth Essence's assimilation with cloud Qi is also clearly stronger. If my previous Inner Qi was as limitless as now, bursting fully, even with cloud Qi to offset, all Hu people within five meters could be slaughtered...]"

Again a stroke, obliterating all obstructing Miscellaneous Hun ahead, for Guan Ping who could now use Inner Qi under Cloud Qi, whether it's Miscellaneous Soldiers or Military Officers, it made no difference, one saber solves all problems.

"[So if Inner Qi's direction remains towards Heaven and Earth Essence, the biggest change should be the will that Inner Qi adds, maintaining the strong destructive power of Heaven and Earth Essence, but due to one's own will, it wouldn't be assimilated by Heaven and Earth Essence.]"

Guan Ping's eyes were icy cold, he basically understood the progression path of a Martial Artist, though there were some errors, Guan Ping broadly confirmed the breakthrough method of Inner Qi Manifestation, purifying Inner Qi, or refining Inner Qi!

Ultimately making Inner Qi no longer contaminated by Heaven and Earth Essence's attributes, but becoming equal to Heaven and Earth Essence, or the same as Heaven and Earth Essence but carrying intense will.

"[Uncle Zhao probably takes the path of purifying Inner Qi, making Inner Qi fundamentally reach the height of Heaven and Earth Essence, and father probably takes the path of Heaven and Earth Essence augmented by intense will.]"

Guan Ping rushed towards the Hu Central Army, though his Inner Qi was heavily assimilated, also heavily offset by Cloud Qi, even the remaining little power couldn't be resisted by those who have not reached Inner Qi Manifestation.

No, to be precise, even Inner Qi Manifestation Generals under cloud Qi, having their Inner Qi severely suppressed, could likely be slain by Guan Ping, which means that now Guan Ping was virtually invincible on this battlefield, this was also why he dared to lead trusted aides to assault the enemy's Central Army.

Guan Ping plowed straight towards the Command Banner of the Miscellaneous Hun's Central Army, ignoring everything else, along the way, within a meter radius was essentially a forbidden zone for Miscellaneous Hun, once entering this range, regardless of the number or identity, all died under Guan Ping's saber.

However, Guan Ping was, after all, human. This attack towards the Central Army, the shining saber light had slain over a thousand Hu people, yet for Guan Ping personally, the entire battlefield spanning nearly ten miles, it was indeed too insignificant, even negligible.

For the tens of thousands of Hu people, the death of over a thousand made no impact on the overall situation. Simply put, it was like Africa mammal migration; though crocodiles obstruct in the middle, taking down a few thousand, essentially the group still moves in one direction.

It was after slaying over a thousand that Guan Ping realized this situation; even if he could kill Miscellaneous Hun head-on, once he charged through, the rear would close, and furthermore, the dense rain of arrows posed significant danger.

Even though protected by limitless Heaven and Earth Essence, making it hard for arrows to harm him, there were still some hidden arrows difficult to guard against.

"[I must break through and slay the enemy's commander, this battle requires personal strength to show a shocking scene that all soldiers can see, to awe the opponent, otherwise, no matter how strong one is, it can't change the essence in such melee.]"

Guan Ping thought slightly annoyed, he had a clear and definite understanding of what Chen Xi used to say about warfare like a vast ocean; this warfare style, even for basic resolution, required considerable power to accomplish!
