Chapter 959: The Power of the Heavenly Seal
Chapter 959: The Power of the Heavenly Seal
In the hands of Lu Hai Kong, the Heavenly Seal, a mysterious artifact left by the enigmatic Taoist priest, revealed its true might. With a simple activation, it unleashed the Taoist's full-force technique, the 'Heavenly Seal Capture Hand.'
Lu Hai Kong had only witnessed the power of the 'Heavenly Seal Capture Hand' before, but now he understood the extent of the Taoist's strength. As the seal activated, a translucent green palm, shimmering like glass, appeared, measuring over a meter in size. Its beauty was deceiving, for it held immense destructive power.
The palm hovered over Zhang Han's Terracotta Army, and without even striking, the nearby soldiers within a few meters radius disintegrated, showcasing the seal's overwhelming force. As the palm descended, Zhang Han's gray, stone-like face contorted in terror. The intense despair emanating from the palm was palpable, and Zhang Han, even as a mere soldier, felt the impending doom.
Lu Hai Kong witnessed Zhang Han's futile struggle. He knew that without any resistance, his fate was sealed. In this dire situation, the only power he could rely on was the aura emanating from the Terracotta Army.
Lu Hai Kong observed as the aura surrounding the Terracotta Army stirred, transforming into a thundercloud as it moved towards the green palm. The thundercloud's might was terrifying, but it was no match for the green palm. The palm effortlessly dissipated the thundercloud, and as it vanished, the palm descended upon Zhang Han, shattering his protective shield and reducing him to powder.
The sound of the impact echoed, and Zhang Han's gray stone-like face cracked, revealing the despair within. Lu Hai Kong understood that Zhang Han's death was sealed, without any chance of survival.
However, Lu Hai Kong's expression remained somber, even as he witnessed Zhang Han's demise. The power of the Heavenly Seal was a cause for celebration, but it also revealed the true strength of the mysterious Taoist. Lu Hai Kong began to grasp the extent of Zhang Jiao's power, a mere glimpse of his prowess.
Initially, Lu Hai Kong had assumed Zhang Jiao's strength was limited to a Martial Arts score of 100, perhaps slightly higher, but the palm strike shattered his assumptions. Lu Hai Kong realized that at this stage, they were a force that disrupted the balance.
"Perhaps the system's restrictions on our full power aren't entirely bad," Lu Hai Kong mused. Shaking off his thoughts, he refocused on the battle at hand, determined to overcome the challenges ahead.
The battle had already tilted in his favor with Zhang Han's death. Zhang Han's 'Commander' trait vanished, and Lu Hai Kong's soldiers and generals regained their normal strength. On the Terracotta Army's side, the loss of Zhang Han's 'Commander' trait resulted in a backlash. Their enhanced strength from the trait diminished, and their overall power decreased significantly.
The more pressing issue for them was the loss of Zhang Han's leadership. The Terracotta Army, without Zhang Han, was merely a few thousand weak soldiers in Lu Hai Kong's eyes.
The battle horn sounded once more, and Lu Hai Kong's defense remained formidable, while the Terracotta Army descended into chaos.
Meanwhile, two other battles raged on the battlefield. One between Dian Wei and Huang Zhong against Meng Tian, and another between Princess San and Meng Yi. These battles also shifted with Zhang Han's death.
Before Zhang Han's demise, Dian Wei and Huang Zhong's Martial Arts scores were suppressed, reduced by 5 points each, though they still retained scores above 90 and could unleash formidable combat power. However, their opponent, Meng Tian, possessed a score above 100.
In the heart of the ancient tomb, a thrilling battle unfolds as the mighty warrior, Lu Hai Kong, confronts the formidable Qin General, Zhang Han. Despite the overwhelming odds, Lu Hai Kong holds his ground, thanks to the divine sword, Chi Xiaojian, which enhances his combat abilities. With each passing moment, the battle intensifies, and the clash between the two warriors becomes a spectacle of strength and skill.
As the fight rages on, Lu Hai Kong's true power becomes evident. With a hundred points in martial prowess and the divine sword's enhancement, he can unleash a burst of strength, reaching a hundred points in combat. However, this burst of power comes with a cooldown, a limitation that doesn't hinder his current battle.
With a hundred points in martial prowess, a divine weapon, and battle-hardened experience, Lu Hai Kong possesses a formidable arsenal. As the battle continues, he effortlessly maintains the upper hand, even after Zhang Han's demise.
When Zhang Han's death triggers a power vacuum, the battle takes an unexpected turn. The thousands of Terracotta Warriors, once under Zhang Han's command, freeze in place, as if paused by an unseen force. Lu Hai Kong, perplexed by this sudden halt, is soon enlightened by the system's prompt.
The Terracotta Warriors, now free from Zhang Han's control, shift their focus from attacking Lu Hai Kong to storming the palace. A massive army of tens of thousands marches towards the palace complex, their movements synchronized and purposeful. Amidst this chaos, the system chimes in with a series of notifications.
"You have slain Zhang Han's Terracotta Warriors. You have obtained a Mythical-tier treasure chest."
"Your subordinate, Huang Zhong, has slain General Meng Tian's Terracotta Warriors. You have obtained a Mythical-tier treasure chest."
"Your teammate, Liu Yue, has slain General Meng Yi's Terracotta Warriors. She has obtained a Mythical-tier treasure chest."
"Congratulations on slaying the tomb's guardians, Zhang Han, Meng Tian, and Meng Yi. You have completed the 'Emperor's Tomb' challenge and earned a special reward."
"With the guardians defeated, the Emperor's Tomb is officially conquered. The Terracotta Warriors have initiated a riot, activating the tomb's self-destruct protocol. You have three hours to retrieve the tomb's burial items before it is destroyed."
Lu Hai Kong is momentarily stunned by this unexpected development. With limited time, he quickly reacts, using the 'One Eye, Ten Thousand Miles' item to search for the 'Elixir of Immortality' within the Emperor's Tomb.
