Chapter 1325: Crisis
December 26, 2017
The battle between Pan Feng and Zhao Gao was one of the first to conclude, almost as soon as the middle-aged man exuded an overwhelming aura.
"Boom!"
The resounding blast that marked Pan Feng's determination echoed through Luoyang, and although no one turned to look, they all knew that with that deafening sound, a brilliant star had fallen.
The fall of a top-tier historical warrior was unprecedented in Lu Hai Kong's military campaigns over the years.
Such a loss was unimaginable for Lu Hai Kong, who had enjoyed a string of successes in recent years. His officials and generals were equally shocked.
However, at this moment, few in Luoyang City had the luxury of time to mourn or grieve over Pan Feng's demise.
The ordinary citizens of Luoyang had mostly evacuated in the previous eight days, and those who remained had combat duties, leaving them no time to dwell on such matters.
Fortunately, Pan Feng's final act of defiance severely injured Zhao Gao, ensuring he couldn't take action for a short time. For now, the situation in Luoyang seemed to remain stable, maintaining the previous balance of power.
Meng Yi fought against Princess San, Li Si clashed with Xi ZhiCai, and the middle-aged man beside Qin Shi Huang used his aura to suppress the two Daoists who appeared later. The exceptional swordsman continued his relentless approach towards Qin Shi Huang.
To outsiders, the current standoff seemed evenly matched, with both sides appearing equally formidable.
However, the combatants themselves didn't share this view. In fact, ever since Qin Shi Huang's arrival, there had been no evenly matched confrontations in Luoyang.
With the arrival of this once-in-a-millennium emperor, the situation in Luoyang had been firmly in their favor.
In truth, whether it was Xi ZhiCai or the three who joined later, they all knew that their current strength was insufficient to challenge Qin Shi Huang.
They needed more power, and the arrival of that power required time and luck.
Lu Hai Kong's allies were waiting for his timely emergence, hoping for a stroke of luck. But Qin Shi Huang had no intention of granting them even that slim chance.
Almost simultaneously with Pan Feng's death in battle, the middle-aged man's aura surged.
An overwhelming aura descended, and the mighty heavenly might struck down, affecting both the Daoists and the woman holding the heavenly book.
He was too powerful!
Although they had anticipated his strength, it wasn't until they faced him directly that they understood the true terror of this middle-aged man.
Aside from his intimidating aura, which made the Daoists feel suffocated, they also realized that if he took action, it would be a devastating force beyond their capacity to withstand.
The only relief the Daoists felt was that as the middle-aged man unleashed his power, everyone could clearly sense a surge of purple energy above them.
Although the system didn't punish the middle-aged man, the warning was unmistakable. Should he make a move, the system would not let him off lightly!
This had been the Daoists' assurance for taking action, but witnessing this firsthand did little to ease their minds.
It was evident that the middle-aged man's strength far exceeded their expectations. Even with the system's warning, it didn't expel him, clearly indicating he had one chance to strike. The Daoists had no confidence in withstanding even a single attack from him.
Fortunately, after the system's warning, the middle-aged man gradually retracted his overwhelming aura.
It was clear that he had no intention of being expelled from the Three Kingdoms world just to deal with the Daoist. After all, the Daoist was not worthy of such a move from him.
The middle-aged Daoist, alerted by the system's warning, had caused a stalemate, leaving the middle-aged man and the three Daoists in an awkward stand-off.
The sudden appearance of this situation, or more accurately, the system's abrupt intervention, caused Qin Shi Huang's brows to furrow once more.
As the eternal emperor and the top-tier ruler among the foreign powers, he had never been subjected to such a restraint. However, even the eternal emperor, as powerful as he was, could not defy the system. So, at this moment, the only thing he could do was to quickly seize the Emperor's Cauldron.
However, there was still one obstacle to Qin Shi Huang's plan to obtain the Emperor's Cauldron—the swordsman.
The swordsman, sensing Qin Shi Huang's unusual movement, immediately unleashed his aura, enveloping Qin Shi Huang tightly.
"How dare you!"
The terrifying aura intensified, and Qin Shi Huang's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
If it weren't for the fact that the Black Dragon Energy needed to accumulate power to deal with the Emperor's Cauldron, the swordsman would have been blasted to death by now.
But the fact that the Black Dragon Energy couldn't be used didn't mean Qin Shi Huang couldn't deal with the swordsman.
Qin Shi Huang merely glanced coldly at the swordsman and casually tossed out a fist-sized golden statue.
Please... Collect... 6... 9... Books... (Six... Nine... Books...)
After throwing the 'golden statue', Qin Shi Huang no longer paid attention to the swordsman. His gaze returned to the Emperor's Cauldron, and at that moment, the Black Dragon Energy on his body surged once more.
As Qin Shi Huang prepared to make his move, the swordsman's aura surged, and his figure slightly lowered as if he was about to pounce. However, just as he was about to strike, the statue that Qin Shi Huang had casually waved earlier grew in the wind, transforming into a golden man in the blink of an eye.
The moment the golden man appeared, it blocked the swordsman's path.
"Get out of my way!"
The swordsman's eyes flashed with sword light, and his figure flickered as he thrust his longsword forward.
With this strike, a gust of wind instantly whipped up from the swordsman's hand, turning the area within a ten-meter radius into ruins. The path of the swordsman's longsword became a void.
The power of this strike was truly awe-inspiring.
However, this terrifying strike was halted right in front of the golden man's chest. Not only could it not pierce the golden man, but it couldn't even leave a three-inch mark on him.
"What is this thing? How can it be so sturdy!"
The swordsman was shocked. His sword could pierce through walls, yet it couldn't leave much of a mark on the golden man, which left him astonished.
But the golden man didn't give the swordsman much time to recover. After withstanding the swordsman's attack, it immediately engaged him in battle.
With this, Qin Shi Huang had also dealt with the swordsman, and there was finally no one left to hinder him.
In this situation, the Black Dragon Energy on Qin Shi Huang's body surged once more, and he unleashed another attack towards the Imperial Palace.
The black dragon roared, and demonic energy filled the sky.
As Qin Shi Huang's strike landed, everyone present felt a tremor in their hearts.
With this strike, the entire Imperial Palace was on the verge of destruction...
