You get Lu Bu as your starting character.

Dongyan Pass.

The eastern barrier of the Great Zhou Dynasty, one of the four great passes of the Great Zhou, was destroyed by the Three Elders with a single palm strike.

The three shrines stood tall and imposing, like the rulers of this land, their power pressing down on the surrounding area for miles.

Looking down at the majestic pass that had collapsed with a deafening roar, and watching the tens of thousands of Great Zhou soldiers vanish into thin air, the Third Prefect's face remained completely expressionless.

It seemed that in the eyes of the three elders, what was killed by a single palm strike was not tens of thousands of lives, but tens of thousands of ants.

Seeing that the Third Elder had destroyed the entire Dongyan Pass with a single palm strike, and that all the soldiers on and below the pass had been annihilated by the Third Elder and reduced to ashes, Pei Yuanqing's eyes widened in fury.

"You old thief, you destroyed my Dongyan Pass and slaughtered tens of thousands of my Great Zhou soldiers. Give me your life!"

Pei Yuanqing soared into the sky, unleashing his full power, and his eight-sided plum blossom silver hammer smashed down on the Third Elder with earth-shattering force.

The three worshippers didn't even lift their eyelids, and casually slapped out another palm.

Pei Yuanqing, who had just soared into the sky, was slammed down to the ground by the Third Elder before he could even make a move.

This time, Pei Yuanqing was seriously injured, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Huo Qubing, Zhao Yun, and the others standing nearby also stood up shakily at this moment.

A single palm strike from the Reincarnation Venerable could have nearly killed Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun.

If it weren't for the exceptional talents of Huo Qubing, Zhao Yun, and the others, who were all rare geniuses, any other person of equal strength would probably have been sent to reincarnation by the Three Elders' palm strike.

Gazing at the collapsed Dongyan Pass and watching the tens of thousands of Zhou soldiers vanish into thin air under the palm of the Three Elders, Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun's eyes turned bloodshot.

This is one of the four great passes of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the eastern barrier protecting the safety of the Great Zhou.

These are tens of thousands of elite soldiers from his Great Zhou Dynasty, including the Divine Martial Guard, the Western Liang Army, and the Eastern Wilderness Army.

But now, it's all gone.

All of them were reduced to ruins and vanished into thin air under the palm of the Great Yan, the Venerable of Reincarnation.

Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun both stared with bloodshot eyes at the three venerable figures standing in mid-air.

"what."

Seeing Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun stand up, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Third Elder.

As a Venerable One who has entered four cycles of reincarnation, his palm strike is not something that just anyone can withstand.

Pei Yuanqing is a king at the peak of life and death. The fact that he could still stand up and fight back after being struck by his palm is understandable to the three elders.

But the fact that Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun, those few ants, were still alive after being struck by his palm surprised the Third Elder.

However, the surprise in the eyes of the three elders was only fleeting and they did not pay much attention to it.

An ant is an ant. If one slap doesn't kill it, then another slap will do.

The three elders unleashed a palm strike with terrifying force, directly aimed at Huo Qubing and his companions.

The Third Elder had no time to waste here. He was going to finish off these ants with one blow, including Pei Yuanqing, who was a slightly larger grasshopper.

Just as the three elders unleashed their palm strikes, thinking they could easily annihilate these few ants,

Sudden.

The world changed.

The three attendants noticed that his palm strike had abruptly stopped, unable to advance even an inch further.

not only that.

The Third Elder also discovered that he was also imprisoned in place by a terrifying force. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not break free from this cage-like confinement.

A look of horror crossed the faces of the three worshippers.

You must know that he is a Venerable One who has entered the cycle of reincarnation four times. Even in the imperial court of the Central Region, he is considered a strongman.

But now, this venerable one who has entered the cycle of reincarnation four times is actually imprisoned.

What kind of power is this?
A tremendous storm raged in the hearts of the three worshippers.

After searching through all his memories, the Third Elder realized that he had never provoked such a powerful figure. Could it be a powerful figure from the Great Zhou Dynasty?
This shouldn't be happening!

If the Great Zhou had such a powerful figure, there would be no need to wait for them to attack again. It is estimated that when their army first captured Dongyan Pass, this powerful figure would have directly taken action, killed Yan Yangtian and his group, and directly attacked the Great Yan.

As his thoughts were racing, an aged voice reached the ears of the Third Master.

"As a Venerable of Reincarnation, he actually slaughtered an army and destroyed a city at will."

"You deserve to die."

Emotionless voices came from all directions.

A finger pointed down from the horizon, pointing towards the three worshippers.

Faced with this seemingly distant yet almost right before his eyes ordinary finger, the three priests' pupils contracted, filled with fear.

"Do not……"

The three worshippers cried out in alarm.

Before the words had even faded, the three elders exploded in mid-air, turning into a shower of blood.

The Venerable One, who had entered four cycles of reincarnation, was thus annihilated in mid-air with a single finger.

Below, Huo Qubing, Zhao Yun, and the others were all dumbfounded and stunned by what they saw.

The Reincarnation Venerable, who destroyed Dongyan Pass with a single palm strike, annihilated tens of thousands of Great Zhou soldiers, and whose oppressive aura rendered them powerless to resist, died just like that.

Killed with a single finger?

Huo Qubing and the others were somewhat incredulous.

They were shocked, confused, and horrified.

They had already witnessed the terrifying power of the Samsara Venerable.

That was a terrifying being capable of destroying mountains and rivers with a single palm strike and slaughtering tens of thousands of soldiers with a single palm strike.

But they never expected that such a terrifying being would be annihilated in mid-air with a single finger.

So, just how terrifying is the person who made this move?
Who was the one who made this move?

While Huo Qubing and his companions were shocked, they were also filled with a big question mark.

Huo Qubing and his companions originally thought that they would not be able to stop the powerful Yan army today and would die in battle at Dongyan Pass.

Unexpectedly, a major reversal occurred in the end, with a powerful figure stepping in and killing the Reincarnation Venerable of the Great Yan, which greatly helped them.

As for who made the move, Huo Qubing and his men didn't have time to think about it in detail.

Because the Yan army had just arrived.

……

Yan Yangtian originally thought that with the three elders taking action, killing Pei Yuanqing and taking down the Zhou army would not be a problem.

The three elders arrived at Dongyan Pass before them. By the time they arrived with their army, the Zhou army would probably have already been wiped out, and they wouldn't need to lift a finger. They could then drive straight into the heart of the Zhou territory.

Yan Yangtian did anticipate the beginning, but who would have thought that he wouldn't have foreseen the ending?

Yan Yangtian also witnessed the scene where the three elders were killed with a single finger.

To be honest, Yan Yangtian never imagined that a reincarnation venerable like the Third Elder would one day be crushed to death with a single finger, like an ant.

It should be understood that the title of "Reincarnation Venerable" is synonymous with strength, whether in the Great Yan Dynasty or other dynasties or imperial courts. It is not some insignificant ant or cat.

Especially since this happened in the Great Zhou Dynasty, a native dynasty that had just merged into the Great Wilderness on its borders. It was simply unbelievable.

If this happened in a royal court or imperial dynasty, it wouldn't be strange for the Venerable Samsara to be killed with a single finger.

After all, there are beings in the imperial dynasty and the imperial court who surpass the Samsara Venerable.

However, the fact that the Great Zhou, an indigenous dynasty that had just merged into the Great Wilderness, could crush a terrifying being who had stepped into the fourth cycle of reincarnation with a single finger was truly astonishing.

Gazing at the blood-red rain falling from the sky, Yan Yangtian's face turned deathly pale, his entire being consumed by inexplicable fear.

"retreat."

Yan Yangtian leaped into the air and fled into the distance without saying a word.

At this moment, Yan Yangtian no longer cared about missions or the size of the army; he fled frantically.

With such a powerful figure in existence, even if Dongyan Pass and the Zhou army were wiped out by the Three Elders with a single palm strike, even if everyone died and the passes of the Great Zhou were destroyed, as long as this powerful figure is there, no one can invade the Great Zhou.

Unless an equally powerful opponent intervenes.

Yan Yangtian fled desperately, the scene of the three elders being killed with a single finger kept flashing through his mind, and he felt a sense of despair.

Yan Yangtian knew that in front of such a powerful figure, his chances of escaping were zero.

But Yan Yangtian didn't want to sit and wait for death. Clinging to a sliver of hope, he ran desperately toward the distance.

Therefore, Yan Yangtian disregarded even the large army behind him.

With the escape of their commander Yan Yangtian, the Yan army also fled desperately.

The scene of the three honored guests being killed with a single finger was not only deeply imprinted in Yan Yangtian's mind, but also in the minds of all the soldiers of the Yan army.

Like Yan Yangtian, all the soldiers of the Yan army were filled with fear, and their only thought was to escape, to escape desperately.

Seeing the Yan army flee without a word, Huo Qubing, Zhao Yun, and the others were all stunned.

Originally, Huo Qubing and his men were worried about their upcoming situation.

After all, Dongyan Pass was destroyed, and the army on and around the pass was wiped out by the palm of the Great Yan Reincarnation Venerable. Even they were seriously injured and half-dead, with less than one-tenth of their fighting strength remaining. They simply had no strength to resist the Yan army.

Unexpectedly, the Yan army was so frightened that they fled first.

At this moment.

A voice filled with murderous intent resounded through the sky.

"You traitors of Great Yan, you destroyed the passes of my Great Zhou and slaughtered my Great Zhou army. Today, none of you will escape."

"boom……"

The world changed.

From the crater created by Pei Yuanqing, a terrifying aura soared into the sky, pressing down on the surrounding area for hundreds of miles.

Under the overwhelming aura of this terrifying force, the fleeing Yan soldiers coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground one by one.

Even Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun, who were standing nearby, coughed up blood and stared in horror at the large pit.

"This is……"

"General Pei has broken through?"

Feeling the soaring momentum, Huo Qubing, Zhao Yun, and the others were all shocked.

This aura is exactly the same as the one emanating from that Reincarnation Venerable of Great Yan just now.

Huo Qubing, Zhao Yun, and the others did not expect that Pei Yuanqing would break through at this time.

This is truly a life-or-death situation, fraught with great terror.

However, this great terror is not frightening, but rather a pleasant surprise.

Pei Yuanqing had already reached the peak of the life and death realm. With this breakthrough, he transcended life and death, entered the cycle of reincarnation, and became the Reincarnation Venerable.

That's right.

Pei Yuanqing has made a breakthrough.

Amidst the life-or-death crisis of the three honorifics, Pei Yuanqing crossed the barrier of life and death and entered the realm of reincarnation.

Pei Yuanqing stood up straight, towering in mid-air, his majestic presence as the Venerable of Reincarnation emanating from him.

Pei Yuanqing glanced at the figure that had already fled into the distance and was gradually becoming a small dot, his eyes filled with undisguised murderous intent.

The three venerable ones of the Great Yan destroyed the East Yan Pass of the Great Zhou, causing the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Great Zhou to be wiped out. Pei Yuanqing also wanted to retaliate in kind, making these Yan soldiers and Yan Yangtian, the commander of the Yan army, pay for their deaths.

Pei Yuanqing took a step forward, and like a streak of light, he instantly appeared hundreds of miles away, chasing after Yan Yangtian.

Yan Yangtian was running frantically, praying in his heart that he could escape alive.

Sudden.

A terrifying aura descended.

A sense of crisis began to surface in Yan Yangtian's mind.

Yan Yangtian looked up, his pupils contracted, and his expression changed drastically; "No..."

An octagonal, plum blossom-shaped, bright silver hammer slammed down.

Yan Yangtian's terrified voice abruptly stopped as he was smashed into a shower of blood, which flew everywhere.

After killing Yan Yangtian, Pei Yuanqing did not hesitate. He sent out his two eight-sided plum blossom silver hammers flying with earth-shattering force, smashing into the fleeing Yan army.

Before Pei Yuanqing, a venerable being who had already entered the cycle of reincarnation, these soldiers of the Yan army were no different from ants.

Just as the Three Worthies destroyed Dongyan Pass with a single palm strike, annihilating tens of thousands of Zhou soldiers, Pei Yuanqing wiped out all the fleeing Yan troops with two hammer blows.

Looking at the blood-soaked corpses on the ground, Pei Yuanqing's expression remained unchanged, extremely cold-blooded.

Yan Yangtian's army was completely annihilated outside Dongyan Pass.

Perhaps Yan Yangtian never imagined that he, the King of Dingxi of Great Yan, a king at the peak of life and death, would die here in the land of Great Zhou, never to return.

Not only Yan Yangtian, but the Third Elder probably never imagined that his trip to the Great Zhou would be the end of his life.

If Yan Yangtian and the Three Elders knew that this trip to the Great Zhou would be the end of their lives, they probably would never have come back!

……

High in the distance.

Steward Yang looked at Pei Yuanqing in surprise.

Steward Yang never expected that Pei Yuanqing would break through the Life and Death Realm and enter the Reincarnation Realm when he was on the verge of death.

"Pei Yuanqing's talent is so high! He broke through to the Reincarnation Realm on the verge of death. At this age, with such strength, there are probably few people in the Azure Dragon Dynasty who can compare to him!"

As Steward Yang looked at Pei Yuanqing, he thought to himself, and then coughed lightly.

Looking at the trace of blood he coughed up from his palm, Steward Yang sighed softly, "I wonder how much longer this crippled body of mine has left."

Steward Yang glanced at Pei Yuanqing below, said nothing more, turned and took a step towards the Southern Frontier, instantly disappearing into the sky.

Now that the Reincarnation Venerable of Great Yan has been dealt with, it's time to go to Southern Xinjiang to deal with the Reincarnation Venerable of Great Yue.

Once the Reincarnation Venerable of Da Yue is dealt with, his mission will be complete.

That's right.

The one who just made a move and killed the Venerable One who had entered the fourth cycle of reincarnation with a single finger was none other than Manager Yang of the Mu Clan Chamber of Commerce.
