Mythical Three Kingdoms-Chapter 1569 - 1512: Giving It Everything

Although Guan Ping mainly cultivates Inner Qi, his body is intensely imbued with Heaven and Earth Essence, far surpassing the average Qi Cultivation of a military general, even if not as advanced as Advanced Cultivation.

Likewise, regarding the divine direction, perhaps Guan Ping has deciphered the shadows, his Will fluctuations mesh perfectly with his Spirit fluctuations, directly infused into the Heaven and Earth Essence, which means his Divine Attribute directly merged into his Inner Qi.

As for Inner Qi, there’s not much to say. He is already approaching the Inner Qi Manifestation Perfection Level. In the past, he was like Sun Ce, Ma Chao, those extraordinary people who reached the peak level of Qi Refining to Gang at the age of fifteen or sixteen.

The difference is that Sun Ce and Ma Chao broke through successfully after only a brief pause in Qi Refining to Gang, while Guan Ping was stuck for three to four years, during which his accumulation became much more substantial than those like Sun Ce initially.

Yet to be candid, Guan Ping reaching Inner Qi Manifestation Perfection is due to Inner Qi accumulation on one hand, but more so because he chose a completely different path than the previous Inner Qi Separation.

Guan Ping abandoned Inner Qi’s assimilation of Heaven and Earth Essence under divine control, instead choosing the contrary, walking a path where Heaven and Earth Essence assimilates Inner Qi; due to this, he managed to unscientifically step into the Inner Qi Manifestation Perfection Level.

Bear in mind, Gao Shun was stuck for so long; when he finally made his move, he reached the Inner Qi Manifestation Perfection Level first and then broke through with his timeless conviction.

Of course, Guan Ping is well aware of the cost of doing this; on one hand, the divine blessing on him has disappeared; his physical body can sustain itself, allowing him to stably exert 100% Combat Power, without fluctuation up or down.

On the other hand, whether good or bad, the essence is that Guan Ping no longer truly possesses Inner Qi; he merely imprinted his divine mark into Heaven and Earth Essence, directly utilizing Heaven and Earth Essence for battle.

Heaven and Earth Essence is powerful, but its drawbacks are also significant. Once an opponent’s mastery over Heaven and Earth Essence surpasses Guan Ping, then what Guan Ping can use is just the fixed amount of Heaven and Earth Essence stored within his body, and using it will be affected by the opponent’s Control Power.

Though the orthodox route entails Inner Qi assimilating Heaven and Earth Essence, eventually, Inner Qi becomes attributed with the same properties as Heaven and Earth Essence, but essentially it remains one’s Inner Qi, whereas Guan Ping clearly went the opposite path, seemingly with some slips as well.

But for Guan Ping, who has shattered Guan Yu’s shadow, it doesn’t matter. Whether there’s a slip, a wrong path, or a fork in the road doesn’t restrict him; even if the path ahead is blocked, the knife in his hand can carve a trail; as for the fork, the wrong path, who knows before reaching the peak?

Guan Ping and Wei Yan joined forces, leading their remaining thousand-plus cavalry hard-charging inward, the mighty strength of slashing kill over a hundred Hu Cavalry made the Miscellaneous Hun on the Left Wing feel fear, involuntarily moving aside when Guan Ping and Wei Yan stormed through.

As for the rout, hey, in such a massive army, mere commotion from over a thousand is hardly impactful, along with Guan Ping and Wei Yan facing the Hu Cavalry head-on; if they want to flee, they need to consider how to evacuate from this mountain-full of Miscellaneous Hun.

Accurately speaking, it’s about how to evacuate, from where to evacuate, do you believe a thousand plus Miscellaneous Hun scattered into the current Miscellaneous Hun’s army; before long, they will blindly follow the Miscellaneous Hun’s army, continuing to attack unbeknownst enemies?

When Guan Ping and Wei Yan combined their forces, breaking through toward Zang Ba’s direction in the south, Zang Ba’s Central Army was already experiencing violent attacks.

Although Xu Shu’s capability can discern flaws, on such a large-scale battlefield, even if a flaw is seen, breakthroughs require considerable power, and Zang Ba, deeply encircled, is clearly feeling somewhat overpowered.

"Guo Huai hold the Left Wing!" Zang Ba roared, issuing orders, while on the other side, following Xu Shu’s command, they continued to dash southward, with a much grimmer expression; as a veteran of the battlefield, he guessed the general situation through intuition.

Guo Huai immediately yelled, leading five hundred private soldiers charging towards the Left Wing, though in comparison to Zang Ba’s Elite Soldiers their strength is notably lacking, but as reserve power, putting everything in one surge instantly made the tense battle line waver, subsequently allowing Zang Ba’s veteran soldiers to seize the opportunity to counterattack and push back the opponent, then strive to pursue Zang Ba retreating southward.

At this moment, Xu Shu’s palm kept sweating, crazily contemplating, analyzing, and guessing the Hu People’s army’s next situation, deducing the overall Hu People’s stance from subtlety.

[Must discern the next step; otherwise, it’ll be impossible to break through. Given the current exchange rate, the Hu People’s aim surely is to exhaust us.]Xu Shu bit his lip, his eyes sharply scanning over the massive Hu People ahead.

[This might be the flaw, no no no, if it’s here, the opponent’s troops here might spontaneously block up here, sealing the flaw, instead becoming a new hindrance.]Xu Shu’s gaze grew sharper, scanning the Hu People ahead.

[Desperate times call for desperate measures, gamble!]Xu Shu took a deep breath, ordered the new drummer to beat the drums, directed Zang Ba to turn westward, which wasn’t a flaw.

Zang Ba roughly guessed the current predicament, but he knew he couldn’t perform better than Xu Shu; the situation dictates his corps must keep moving; once blocked under the immense pressure from the overwhelming Miscellaneous Hun, it’s doomed for complete annihilation.

When Zang Ba collided with the western Miscellaneous Hun, he immediately sensed a difference; this Miscellaneous Hun is sturdy, either Xianbei’s main force or the Jie Clan’s core group, yet this is definitely not a time to change course, disheartenment means guaranteed failure to break through.

Zang Ba roared, fiercely clashing with the enemy leader, followed by his central forces also launching a furious attack; the situation of stepping back during the clash immediately conveyed the scenario to everyone, signifying it was time for desperate efforts.

After this realization, Zang Ba’s core troops, all with a resolve of certain death, launched assaults at the enemy, no longer evading any non-lethal attacks, exchanging injuries for lives, the Blood Fiend Aura intensified by threefold, in nearly one engagement, several dozen Han Army fell, while the Hu’s frontline instantly crumbled.

As Zang Ba was forced back momentarily, he suddenly surged forward to strike unexpectedly and violently kill the opponent.

Within half a cup of tea’s time, Zang Ba and his troops fiercely shattered this Xianbei core elite, but surrounding Miscellaneous Hun quickly began enclosing them during this brief period.

"Wenn Hong, lead five hundred men to hold the right side!" Zang Ba roared loudly.

Always serving in the reserve army, Wenn Hong, at Zang Ba’s orders, without any hesitation dashed toward the right side, where the defense line was on the verge of collapse.
