Chapter 180 The Battle Between Earth Immortals and Those Who Aspire to the Peak
Immediately, Lu Yuan opened his system panel.
Name: Lu Yuan
Age: 21
[Cultivation Technique: Ninth-Rank Cultivation Technique "Shattering Void Blade Manual" (30281/50000 Entry Stance)]
[The Dharma Image of the Eighth-Rank Cultivation Technique "Nine Netherworld Refining Spirit Technique" (10321/30000 Perfection)]

[Eighth-Rank Skill "Concentrated Arrow Technique" (60319/50000 Entry Points, Should I use 10,000 Proficiency Points to Advance?)]
[Eighth-Rank Kung Fu Technique "Heaven-Shaking Meteor Fist"] (60282/50000 Entering Stance, Should I use 10,000 proficiency points to advance?)
Looking at the data above, Lu Yuan immediately said, "Advance."
The next moment, a series of memories and experiences surfaced in my mind.
In his mind, he seemed to have become a god of archery, shooting down his prey in the desolate wilderness.
Blood splattered, and the beasts howled in agony.
[Ninth-Rank Kung Fu Technique: Soaring Arrow Technique (319/1000 Minor Success)]
Then a complete set of boxing techniques appeared in his mind, the force of which seemed capable of shaking heaven and earth.
Each time it falls, it stirs up a cloud of surprise.
His arms and hands underwent tremendous changes, making further progress on top of his already powerful physique.

"Buzz!"
As his cultivation technique advanced, a buzzing sound emanated from Lu Yuan's body.
He seemed to have gained a new understanding of various martial arts techniques and moves.
He opened his eyes and saw Zhou Hongling sitting beside him, sorting through the messages sent from the military.
"Is it getting dark?"
"It's already dark, almost dawn. The Observatory has sent word that Emperor Yu has found the person who climbed to the top of the Heavenly Ladder Cliff. His name is Zhang Fan, and he comes from the White Cloud Sect."
"Now, he has been invited into the Great Yu Imperial Palace and appointed as the Grand Marshal of the Allied Forces, ready to resist our attack." Zhou Hongling said, a look of worry on her face.
After all, this is a person with great fortune. If he really becomes Lu Yuan's opponent, she is really worried that the Great Yu and Western Rong dynasties will have a chance to turn the tide.
Upon hearing her say this, a strange expression appeared on Lu Yuan's face. He truly hadn't expected that someone would actually reach the summit.
"Could he be a fraud?" That was Lu Yuan's first thought, but he immediately shook his head.
"boom!"
The moment Lu Yuan made his choice, a flood of memories about cultivation filled his mind.
The energy within the entire body becomes more active at this moment.
Divine matter was increasing dramatically, and the spiritual energy condensing in the sky poured into his body, even forming a huge vortex.
Zhou Hongling, who had been guarding Lu Yuan, was forced to retreat under the influence of this energy.
Surprise appeared in his eyes; he clearly hadn't expected Lu Yuan to be so powerful.
[Ninth-Rank Cultivation Technique "Zhou Tian Xing Chen Breathing Method" Earth Immortal Level (135/1000 Minor Success)]
When Lu Yuan opened his eyes, it was already bright daylight, and it was clearly noon.
Zhou Hongling stood at the doorway, staring at him with a look of surprise and doubt on her face.
He then asked, "You've broken through?"
"Hmm, I've finally reached the Earth Immortal level." Lu Yuan stretched his arms and chuckled.
Then he stepped forward and continued, "We will set off for Suzhou early tomorrow morning and wait there for the army to assemble."
"I'll listen to you." Zhou Hongling nodded obediently.
For the next period of time, Lu Yuan and his men were on the move, but at a slow pace, as they still had to wait for reinforcements.
Half a month later, Xiao Xiong and his group arrived at their destination.
Not only that, they were even one step ahead of them.
As soon as they entered the Suzhou camp, Xiao Xiong came to greet them, looking even more imposing than before.
His entire body exuded a powerful aura.
However, upon seeing Lu Yuan, he became extremely respectful, kneeling on one knee and saying, "Greetings, Your Highness."
"Hehe, General Xiao, please don't stand on ceremony. Have the people from Dayu arrived?"
"They've arrived, less than thirty miles from the fortress. Even if we don't send troops, they'll probably launch an attack since they arrived two days ago."
"The people of Dayu seem very proactive," Xiao Xiong said immediately.
Lu Yuan nodded: "If they want to start a war, then let's start. Have they set up their military formations?"
"There are no signs yet, but the remaining Imperial Guards of Dayu have all arrived, and the Western Rong and Eastern Yi have also formed a relatively strong army."
"The number should be around 500,000," Xiao Xiong said hurriedly.
"Well, since they haven't set up any formations, then we won't use any formations either. Let's see what tricks they're up to."
Lu Yuan's calm voice rang out, and then he climbed onto the city wall.
His gaze swept downwards.
Then you see a massive army setting up camp in the distance.
The room was illuminated by lights.
People walked around from time to time.
The barracks were not very well-organized.
It doesn't seem like a famous general is in command at all.
Upon seeing this scene, Lu Yuan's lips curled up.
A smile appeared in his eyes; he was also eager to see who truly held the reins of destiny.
Just as he was thinking this to himself.
Meanwhile, inside the Dayu camp, Zhang Fan sat in his command tent, only now truly experiencing the feeling of being in a superior position.
The power to change the world with a single sentence.
It was truly a feeling of unprecedented comfort. Looking at the White Cloud Sect Master, she whispered, "Master, do you really think it's feasible to attack the city directly tomorrow?"
"Hehe, just do what you think is right. Don't worry too much. As long as destiny is on your side, no one can do anything to you."
The White Cloud Sect Master looked at his disciple and said with a smile.
Beside him, Hong Tao, the last great general of the Great Yu, was also present. He glanced at the soldiers outside and said, "Our military formation is no longer able to deal with Lu Yuan. Now we can only rely on Mr. Zhang. Hopefully, a miracle will happen tomorrow."
To be honest, he was a little skeptical, but there was nothing he could do.
At this point, we have no choice but to try anything, even if it seems hopeless. Besides, even His Majesty believes it, so why shouldn't he?
In the Great Yu Imperial Palace, the Emperor Yu asked his attendant, "When will our army launch the attack?"
"Your Majesty, we have just received news that the attack on Suzhou will begin early tomorrow morning."
"Hopefully, this time we can turn things around."
"Your Majesty, rest assured, with Mr. Zhang taking action this time, there will certainly be no mistakes. No matter how strong the Qin Dynasty is, it will only be defeated in the face of destiny."
"It was said in a soft voice."
Back then, when the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty raised his army, he swept across the country in a short period of time. What people talked about most was the decisive battle on the banks of the Nuyun River, where he led an army of 100,000 against the enemy's million-strong elite force.
With a tenfold difference in strength, everyone thought Emperor Zhou was doomed. But unexpectedly, a flood broke out that night, and the Zhou army, whose camp was on higher ground, suffered no losses.
The enemy was nearly half submerged, and the next day, the earth shook again, and the million-strong army vanished in an instant.
The Zhou army, on the contrary, was safe and sound.
Without losing a single soldier or foot, the battle was resolved, and in the end, the world was unified.
This is why everyone believes that destiny is irreversible.
It was something that almost everyone in the world's top leadership agreed on.
Emperor Yu nodded and said with a light laugh, "Then let's see how this battle goes."
Inside the Western Rong royal palace, Ling looked at her father with a worried expression and said, "Father, why are you doing this? Didn't we start discussing surrendering to the Great Qin a while ago? Why are you mobilizing your only elite troops to fight them again?"
Zhang Fan is just a sect disciple at the Divine Power Realm; he's never even been on a battlefield. How can you be so certain he can win?
"The fact that Mr. Zhang was able to reach the summit shows that he has received the blessing of Heaven. You do not know the power of this, so you naturally think that the Great Qin is invincible."
You'll understand after this battle is over.
The Western Rong Emperor waved his hand, signaling his son to stop talking.
In the Eastern Yi imperial palace, the Azure Emperor looked at the battle report with a solemn expression, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Inside the Qin Imperial Palace, Empress Xiao looked at Li Qing with a worried expression: "Zhang Fan, is it really that miraculous?"
"Your Majesty, if he truly ascends to the summit and receives the Mandate of Heaven, perhaps something extraordinary will happen. The Zhou Emperor was able to win by relying on celestial phenomena," Li Qing said with a wry smile.
The ministers in the hall exchanged glances but remained silent. After all, this matter was different from a direct war, and they were truly unsure of what to do.
Xiao Hua held her mother's hand, wanting to speak. She naturally knew about Lu Yuan's ascent to the top, but she swallowed her words and didn't say them.
After all, she didn't know anything about Zhang Fan's situation.
There's not much point in saying it now; let's wait and see how things go tomorrow.
At this moment, everyone knew that the next battle might not be as exciting or as grand as the previous ones, but it was the real battle for supremacy.
Lu Yuan stood on the city wall of Suzhou Fortress without leaving. The winter wind and snow blew over his body until dawn before he slowly said, "Let the army prepare for battle."
"Yes, sir!"
Xiao Lie responded and withdrew.
Lu Yuan looked ahead and saw that the army of Dayu had begun to slowly advance.
