Chapter 226 - Chapter 0224: The Deadly Water Tornado

This halberd strike was imbued with an overwhelming killing intent.

It carried the murderous aura Lü Bu had accumulated from a lifetime of battles and clashes with foreign tribes. It condensed into an endless mountain of corpses and sea of blood — two armies clashing, the battlefield stretching endlessly, the skies dyed crimson. The aura of the halberd reeked of blood and sent chills down the spine. It was terrifying to the extreme, ferocious to the extreme.

The intent behind the halberd clashed with the hammer intent.

The two forces collided like ice against fire, fiercely opposed.

Boom! Boom! Boom!!

As the martial intents collided, the surrounding ocean exploded like a million tons of dynamite had been dropped into it. Enormous waves shot into the sky, hundreds, even thousands of meters high.

It wasn't just their martial intents colliding — Lü Bu's Fangtian Huaji swept toward Li Yuanba's vital points again and again with mad ferocity. However, Li Yuanba's hammer techniques were equally masterful. With his massive urn-sized golden hammers, he could block and shield most of his body better than any shield ever could. Moreover, when he swung the twin hammers, it was like a raging flood, unstoppable and continuous, turning into a violent, endless tide. His strength seemed limitless.

Lü Bu's halberd strikes were vicious and sharp, meeting force with force without a hint of retreat.

No hesitation, only battle.

That was Lü Bu's savage style.

"What terrifying warriors! As expected of the greatest generals in Chinese history — Lü Bu and Li Yuanba. Their physical cultivation is astounding; their blood and qi soar like wolf smoke. Their physique cultivation must be at least at the level of the Black Cauldron Five Resonances. Combined with their internal true qi, their destructive power is monstrous. Especially their superb combat techniques — they have both comprehended martial intent."

Yi Tianxing couldn't help but draw a deep breath at the sight.

It didn't surprise him that they had grasped martial intent, and so powerfully at that. Who were they, after all? Peerless generals who had carved their way through seas of corpses and mountains of blood. Their techniques weren't learned — they were born from slaughter, forged through endless killing. Their very existence was for the purpose of taking lives. How could the kill count of martial artists compare to that of battlefield generals?

Slaughter enough pigs, and even a butcher could develop a technique like "Butcher Ding Dissects an Ox." Chop enough wood, and one could forge peerless swordsmanship. Not to mention the soldiers who had slaughtered tens of thousands in war. Even an idiot would acquire top-tier killing skills under such conditions, let alone peerless generals like these.

Their fighting style was all about overwhelming offense, drenched in murderous intent and infused with martial meaning.

Its might was even more terrifying than most combat techniques.

If a wandering swordsman from the martial world tried to duel Li Yuanba, the first hammer blow would smash him into meat paste.

These were techniques purely designed for killing — no fancy moves, no embellishments. Only one goal: to kill the enemy as quickly as possible.

"Ghost God Seven Strikes" and "Heaven-Hating Seven Strikes" — these are two peerless techniques! Moreover, they were both created by Lü Bu and Li Yuanba themselves. No one else in heaven or earth could rival them. I really want to personally experience their skills..."

The bronze war spear in Yi Tianxing's hand quivered, his battle spirit surging. The clash of such peerless warriors made one's blood boil. However, charging into their battle now would be suicidal — even Yi Tianxing wasn't confident he could escape unscathed. Who knew what hidden trump cards these two monsters possessed?

Winning the overall competition was the priority.

"Kill! Good, you sickly bastard — I didn't expect your strength to be so great! You are worthy to be Lü Bu's opponent!"At this moment, Lü Bu had also been truly ignited. Excitement gleamed in his eyes. He had never encountered an opponent who could fight him to such a standstill. The more they fought, the more exhilarated he became.

"You, Lü Bu, truly live up to your reputation! My Heaven-Hating Seven Strikes have been unstoppable — no one has ever dared to take my urn-sized hammers head-on. Only you dare clash with them directly. Splendid! Absolutely splendid! Come, fight me more!"

Li Yuanba also burst into hearty laughter, eyes gleaming like stars. Brandishing his golden hammers, he charged at Lü Bu again.

Lü Bu, without the slightest fear, spurred his flying horse forward to meet him.

The two clashed fiercely as they moved forward, battling even as they advanced.

Wherever they passed, the ocean roared and trembled. Enormous waves rolled outward. Countless whirlpools were stirred up in their wake.

It was a terrifying sight.

Yi Tianxing was also dashing across the ocean surface.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Suddenly, as he moved, dark clouds filled the sky. Layers upon layers of clouds rolled and churned. Violent hurricanes swept through the area, so fierce that they turned day into night. Torrential rain burst forth suddenly, and visibility dropped to almost zero.

"Another disaster — what kind of calamity is this now?"

Seeing the massive storm engulf the heavens, Yi Tianxing's heart grew heavy. This horrifying weather brought a suffocating pressure that weighed heavily on the soul like a storm cloud over the heart.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Lightning flashed inside the storm. Wild winds howled, and a powerful sense of threat surged in his mind.

Countless enormous wind blades formed within the gale — wind knives, wind spears, wind swords, and more. It was as if countless invisible enemies were attacking him from every direction within the storm.

The wind was so fierce it made his body ache.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

With a thought, the Mystic Armor Life Aperture activated, and a black battle armor instantly covered Yi Tianxing's body.

Brandishing his war spear, he struck out again and again, each thrust precise and powerful.Every thrust shattered a hidden wind blade or weapon.

Each spear thrust was straight and true — but incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, dozens, even hundreds of spear thrusts erupted, filling the air with afterimages that lingered around him, creating a protective barrier.

He was assaulted by hundreds, even thousands of attacks from the raging winds every second. The ferocity of the wind blades was terrifying — their sharpness could tear through almost anything.

To survive, Yi Tianxing had to focus every ounce of his spirit, energy, and willpower.

Each strike had to be fast, ruthless, and accurate, pushed to the absolute limit.

In the process, with every spear thrust, his comprehension of spearmanship deepened, and the Spear Dao True Symbol within him strengthened, little by little. Fighting for survival in such adversity became a potent tempering for his martial skills.

Suddenly, his war spear's aura changed. It began to emanate a unique and fierce energy.

Shattered Jade Spear Technique – Crimson Jade Burns Immortals Like the Sun!!

This spear thrust burned like a blazing sun, releasing boundless flames that could incinerate even gods and immortals. Ferocious and unyielding — even immortals standing in its way would be skewered and burned to ash.

As the war spear danced, scarlet spear shadows bloomed around him like a flower of fire.In an instant, eighty-one scarlet spear shadows erupted outward, forming a solar blossom around Yi Tianxing.

The spears were infused with burgeoning martial intent. Although not yet fully condensed, the Shattered Jade Spear Technique, fueled by shattered jade spear intent, made grasping the true intent far easier. Upon unleashing this technique, Yi Tianxing faintly brushed against the true meaning of this spear move.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Wind blades shattered one after another under the scarlet spears.

Moreover, the wild winds seemed to feed the flames, making them burn even fiercer.

Lü Bu and Li Yuanba were also caught in the storm. Forced to stop their duel, they had to defend themselves by wildly swinging their weapons against the countless wind blades.

"What terrifying suction — whirlpools are forming below!"

"Such strange whirlpools! Why is the suction so strong? Even my flying horse is being pulled in!"

As the battle raged, the storm grew fiercer.Suddenly, monstrous whirlpools appeared one after another across the sea. Each whirlpool rotated violently, emitting overwhelming suction, threatening to drag everything above them into their depths.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Before Yi Tianxing could react, he saw enormous columns of seawater being sucked up from the ocean, forming giant water tornadoes.

They rose into the sky like colossal water dragons.

"This is bad!!"

Yi Tianxing's heart sank.He tried to dodge, but the whirlpool's suction caught his body, freezing him in place. A water tornado swept toward him and engulfed him along with his Golden Roc mount.

Inside the water tornado, Yi Tianxing struggled to stabilize himself, but the tornado spun him wildly. If not for his strong cultivation and physical resilience, an ordinary person would have already fainted from the sheer force. Even so, Yi Tianxing found it hard to control his movements, his body tossed and turned helplessly.

Inside the water tornado raged the full force of the storm — a true natural disaster.

Even cultivators found it hard to resist once trapped inside.

Breaking free from the water tornado would be nearly impossible — only when the tornado's strength weakened naturally would he have a chance to escape.

"This is bad... In previous calamities, I could still control my body somewhat. Even if things were dangerous, I could respond calmly. But now, I can barely control my movements. In this condition, even minor threats could become fatal."

Yi Tianxing felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

It was like a drunken brawl — one fighter sober, the other drunk and staggering. Who would win? Even a fool could guess.

Under these conditions, even the slightest danger became exponentially more lethal.

At that moment —

He suddenly smelled a thick stench of blood through his nose.

It was the scent of killing intent — an overwhelming aura of death.

"What is that?"

Yi Tianxing's eyes snapped open as he scanned the water tornado around him. Despite his body spinning wildly, his innate Yin-Yang Eyes pierced through the chaotic waters — and in an instant, he saw something lurking within the water tornado.
