The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 384 - 385 Hou Meng
Chapter 384 -385 Hou Meng
The artillery assault came once again, enraging the group of Awakening Realm experts from the Qin Dynasty, who hastily took action to intercept.
Another round of artillery fire rained down, and though the Marquis and Generals of the Qin Dynasty could handle one shot each, and even the more formidable could withstand two attacks from the heavy artillery, still, pillars of Soul Power light burst through into the military formation, exploding upon impact.
After the second round of artillery fire emerged from the river, the heavy artillery Soul Power platforms at the bottom of the river submerged into silence, their flickering Soul Power Arrays also dimming, and the previously distorted, swirling river water returned to calm.
“Elders, attack!” Lin Qian suddenly commanded, as the Elemental Weapon Armament in his grasp, the Thunder Night Sword flashing with red gold lightning, was tightly clutched in his hand.
Bang!
Accompanied by Lin Qian’s roar, the next moment he charged out from the battleship, transforming into a streak of thunderous light that crossed the skies, rushing towards the enemy’s battle formation.
“Huaxia!” A clamorous roar rose from behind the battleship, as the Imperial Army stood in orderly ranks on the deck, shouting in unison following Lin Qian’s charge.
With mighty shields paving the way, the Roaming Spear, force halberds in tow, gentle swords and trembling swords on the left, blood battle and furious battle on the right, with the solid shield guarding Qiang Yu and Qingyu closely behind. Ghostly shadows and swift winds hid within the ranks.
The Huaxia Empire struck!
Lin Qian, charging at the forefront, didn’t use his top speed, instead slightly ahead of the Imperial Army behind him, as the bright yellow imperial Soul Power began to ignite, the robe of imperial intent donned.
Glorious golden nine dragons roared out, their cries echoing simultaneously; the majestic Emperor’s Aura enveloped the entire Imperial Army.
“His Majesty leads the charge!”
In an instant, the Soul Power of the Imperial Army of the Huaxia Empire coalesced, forming an unbreakable force, rushing forward in unison.
From afar, Lin Qian and the Imperial Army behind him appeared like a golden Divine Dragon rushing towards the Qin Dynasty, its domineering aura unstoppable.
Amid their astonishment, the elders on the battleship also followed closely behind Lin Qian, although he had only ordered them to attack without specifying what to do. Yet, they knew exactly what their target was, the Marquis and Generals within the Awakening Realm of the Qin Dynasty.
Even though the elders from the three forces set off later, their close proximity to the Awakening Realm Soul Martial Artists and their strength not comparable to that of the Imperial Army in the Life and Death Realm. In the blink of an eye, they had already surpassed Lin Qian and the others.
The gap in Realm was not easily bridged; only monsters like Lin Qian could slay enemies above their level, and only his Huaxia Empire in the Four Directions World could fill the ranks with numbers to overwhelm the foreign tribes of the Awakening Realm.
Of course, this was also because those foreign Awakening Realm beings were the weakest among their kind. Otherwise, it would not be possible to overcome a few Awakening Realm foreign tribes with sheer numbers.
The elders from the three forces, who had far surpassed the Imperial Army of the Huaxia Empire, stared at the Marquis and Generals of the opposing troops and charged directly at them.
With their shortcomings bolstered and their Primordial Weapons enhanced by the Huaxia Empire, the elders from the three forces unleashed unparalleled combat strength. The reacting Marquis and Generals, who were passively defending, were all blasted into the sky.
It wasn’t just the elders from the three forces who were deployed; Fang Yiping, Li Xiaotian, and Yang Yifan also took part, leading the charge at the forefront.
With the help of Lin Qian, their combat abilities were deeply enhanced after they took action, with many elders actually taking on two enemies each, sending the Awakening Realm experts of the Qin Dynasty flying.
From the aura that Lin Qian and the Imperial Army carried as they charged out, they understood one thing.
Victory was certain.
Despite the Imperial Army behind Lin Qian numbering only three million, they were all at the Life and Death Realm, with a unified aura and neat formation. Just the Soul Devices of heavy armor they wore were incomparable to what the Qin Dynasty had to offer.
In the past, they still regarded the Qin Dynasty’s Soul Device armors highly, until they saw the heavy and light armors of the Huaxia Empire, and instantly deemed the former’s armors as nothing more than trashy scrap metal.
What they needed to do now was simple, just to blast the Awakening Realm powerhouses of the opposing side out of the battlefield, allowing Lin Qian to lead the soldiers of both the Central Qin Regular Army and the Eight Directions Regular Army into battle!
The soldiers of the Qin Dynasty only felt a gust of wind rip through their ranks as the Awakening Realm elders from the three forces charged at their Marquis generals. In the blink of an eye, they were gone.
Originally, there were over three hundred Marquises and generals. In the blink of an eye, only seven remained within the ranks, their faces ashen as they stared ahead.

The elders from the three forces, totaling a little over two hundred, had forcibly removed more than three hundred Awakening Realm figures from the Qin Dynasty from the battlefield. This was already their limit. The remaining seven weaker Awakening Realm warriors had to be handed over to Lin Qian.
They weren’t very worried about Lin Qian’s safety, as the very reason his name had entered their ears was because he had slain Qin Yunyu of the Awakening Realm with a single sword strike!
“A king dares to lead the charge himself, truly foolish,” a Bearded Marquis sneered with a smile, lifting the heavy scimitar in his hand as he advanced towards Lin Qian at the forefront.
“Hou Meng, don’t act recklessly! The crown prince was slain by his sword!” Seeing the Bearded Marquis charge out, another general shouted anxiously.
“Hahaha, it’s just a rumor. How is it possible for someone to slay an Awakening Realm warrior with one strike in the Life and Death Realm?” Hou Meng laughed heartily as he charged out, brandishing his heavy scimitar, “It’s probably a trick with an Awakening Realm powerhouse secretly helping, a deception!”
As Hou Meng took the initiative and charged, he swiftly approached Lin Qian, leading the Imperial Army.
This scene ignited anticipation among the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, all of them looking in that direction with a single thought in their hearts.
Kill him!
If they could slay Lin Qian at the battlefront…
Just as the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty Army were filled with eager anticipation, Hou Meng was about to clash with Lin Qian, raising his heavy scimitar for the attack.
The ferocious smile on Hou Meng’s bearded face showed, his yellowed teeth bared as he gripped the handle of the scimitar, his muscles taut, channeling Soul Power into the blade.
In his heart, he was already picturing the scene where Lin Qian would be cleaved in two by his single strike.
Lin Qian had slain Qin Yunyu with a sword? Hou Meng didn’t believe it. The gap between the Life and Death Realm and the Awakening Realm wasn’t a small one. How could such a thing happen?
Unless Lin Qian was indeed a monstrous exception, like someone who had undergone twelve cycles of Nirvana.
Huh? Twelve cycles of Nirvana!
Hou Meng’s pupils contracted sharply as he charged forward, for he saw clearly that the layers of Soul Power light around Lin Qian’s body were twelve in number. Wasn’t that the symbol that the opponent had broken through with twelve cycles of Nirvana?
It was only when his opponent raised the Primordial Weapon in hand that he realized, it was an Ancestor Level Martial Soul!
A red-golden radiance shimmered before him. As Lin Qian’s cold eyes swept over him, the black sword raised in his hand thunderously descended towards him.
