Chapter 462: The Conclusion
Chapter 462: The Conclusion
2017-09-25
Outside Qiangyin City, deep within the mountains.
Zhao Yue'er and Lu Bu's second duel commenced, and this time, the situation was entirely different. Yue'er's combat power surged, and the cyan flames surrounding her grew more intense by the second.
Initially, the duel was evenly matched, but as the flames on Yue'er's body blazed brighter, her strength became increasingly formidable.
Gradually, Lu Bu was overpowered by Yue'er.
The Flying Wolf Riders were stunned by this sight, as they had never seen Lu Bu being dominated, let alone by a woman.
Unconcerned with the onlookers, Yue'er savored her unparalleled power as she fought Lu Bu.
This was a level of strength she had never experienced before, and she vaguely felt as if she had reached the pinnacle of martial arts she had been pursuing.
However, this power came at a cost. As the cyan flames burned, her life force gradually weakened, and with each passing moment, she endured the agony of her body being sliced by countless tiny blades.
Only someone as resilient as Yue'er could withstand such torment.
After several minutes of fighting, Yue'er had completely dominated the battle.
A cyan shadow struck Lu Bu, sending him flying over a dozen meters.
Before Lu Bu could land, the cyan shadow attacked again.
The shadow paused in front of Lu Bu, revealing Yue'er engulfed in cyan flames. She thrust her spear forward, her face as calm as a warrior's.
In that instant, a roar like a beast emerging from hell echoed, and a terrifying aura spread.
Lu Bu's face paled, and he brandished his halberd, summoning a war god-like phantom.
A virtual tiger charged at the phantom, and Lu Bu was knocked back several dozen meters, uprooting trees and carving a deep furrow in the ground.
The Flying Wolf Riders watched this terrifying battle scene, their eyes wide with shock.
They had never imagined that a top-tier martial artist's all-out battle could be so frightening.
They had no idea that Yue'er's combat strength had surpassed the limits of a warrior general, reaching an extreme that even a powerful figure like Lu Bu seemed like a child being overpowered.
However, Yue'er's strength was enhanced by medicine, so she couldn't control her power well. This was why their fight was so intense.
If she could control her strength, all her power would have been focused on Lu Bu, and he might have been defeated already.
Even so, Lu Bu was suffering. He swore that this was the most humiliating battle he had ever fought.
Being overpowered by an opponent was one thing, but for that opponent to be a woman was unbearable. How could Lu Bu ever show his face if this got out?
However, Lu Bu had no time for idle thoughts. After being knocked away, he quickly stood up, bracing himself for Yue'er's next attack.
But to his surprise, Yue'er stopped her assault.
"There's no need to continue. I underestimated the medicine's effect and overestimated your strength. Defeating you now has no meaning."
Yue'er glanced at Lu Bu indifferently and spoke.
Zhao Yue'er had always pursued the peak of martial arts, but she never imagined that her pinnacle would be so easily attained with a single pill, boosting her combat strength directly to 100 or even higher.
At this moment, she felt incredibly powerful, even capable of effortlessly defeating Lu Bu. Yet, she also felt an overwhelming sense of emptiness.
This wasn't what she wanted. What was initially meant to be a tool to aid in combat had become the greatest hindrance to her battles, leaving her helpless.
She didn't want to fight like this, and she couldn't continue. At that moment, she suddenly felt the urge to see Lu HaiKong.
"There's still some time left. I should be able to make it," Zhao Yue'er murmured, sensing the flames on her body, as she prepared to head towards Qiangyin.
Just then, a terrifying aura surged skyward, startling Zhao Yue'er. She turned around and saw Lu Bu standing, his disheveled hair moving without a breeze.
"Woman, I only held back because you're just a weakling. Did you really think I couldn't defeat you?" Lu Bu said, swinging his Heaven-Spanning Halberd as he charged towards Zhao Yue'er.
Witnessing this, Zhao Yue'er was not surprised but elated. As a battle maniac, what could be more thrilling than the scene unfolding before her?
In a 6-9-1-9-1-book-1-bar-1-look-1-wrong-version!
However, Zhao Yue'er's elation was short-lived. At that moment, she realized her previous thoughts were overly optimistic, and the pill's effect wasn't as beneficial as she had estimated.
The effect only lasted for ten minutes, and as those ten minutes passed, Zhao Yue'er felt her power reaching its peak and then beginning to wane.
"Indeed, relying on drugs won't lead to the pinnacle of martial arts," Zhao Yue'er murmured, her bright eyes gleaming sharply.
"Since I can't fight, I'll focus all my energy on this final strike!"
With this conviction, Zhao Yue'er raised her long spear once more. Simultaneously, a terrifying aura gathered, and the air seemed to thicken.
Lu Bu, about to charge at Zhao Yue'er, hesitated for a moment, wanting to stop. But instead, he frantically channeled his inner energy, combining his aura with the phantom behind him.
Both prepared their ultimate moves. Zhao Yue'er aimed for a final strike, while Lu Bu simply didn't want to be defeated.
Their ultimate moves were almost fully charged simultaneously. Zhao Yue'er thrust her spear, and a terrifying beastly roar echoed.
A black beast with blood-red eyes pounced forward.
In an instant, everything within a ten-meter radius was annihilated, including the phantom Lu Bu had painstakingly gathered.
"So strong! I concede defeat!"
For the first time in his life, Lu Bu felt a sense of helplessness, a feeling of being unable to resist overwhelming combat strength.
He knew this strike exceeded the capabilities of any warrior. He had no way to block it. Perhaps this was the day of his demise.
However, as Lu Bu reluctantly prepared to face death with resentment and helplessness, everything suddenly vanished.
The terrifying phantom beast disappeared, and the woman who unleashed that horrifying move transformed into cyan flames, fading away.
It was clear the pill's effect had worn off, and Zhao Yue'er had died...
