Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 892 - 241: Fan Wu’s Terrifying Aura! Tens of Thousands of Troops Are Merely So!

"In this Kaihai County, I, Yu Dahai, have never been afraid of anyone! At first, it was only a half, and now with you, Brother Fan Wu on board, we’ve got one and a half!" Yu Dahai inside the tavern was drunk again, with table after table lined with empty liquor jars, each as big as a wine vat. One can only imagine... just how much he had drunk.

"One and a half?" Yun Jiuqing, sitting nearby, couldn’t help but ask curiously, "If... Daoist Priest Fan is one of them, then who is the other half? Surely there isn’t really someone who is only half a person, right?"

Yun Jiuqing knew the question she had just asked was a bit far-fetched, after all, who is literally half a body? But the thing is, there seem to be quite a few people in the Shangwu Dynasty, and who knows, maybe there really is someone who looks like that.

"Burp~" Yan Dahu belched, his speech intermittently continued, "The other half... the other half is that... head of the Kaihai County naval forces, what’s-his-name-Tuoba, Tuoba whatser..."

"It’s Tuoba, not whatser-Tuoba!" Yan Dalong, the elder brother of Yan Dahu, corrected him, "Kaihai County has a big port, and there’s a naval force at the port. If you came by sea to the Shangwu Dynasty, you must have seen a lot of warships and sea vessels docked there, right?"

"Those warships and sea vessels... belong to a naval force of the Shangwu Dynasty and that force has quite the number, a good thirty-four thousand strong. The one leading them is a guy named Tuoba Jundu, the commander of that naval troop."

"Actually, the two of us brothers haven’t been in Kaihai County for very long, so we’re not very clear about some of the local powers. However, because of the general with the surname Tuoba’s fame being so thunderous, even we brothers have heard of him."

"It’s said that he’s a powerful cultivator and also a member of the Tuoba Clan from the Imperial City of the Shangwu Dynasty. This Tuoba Clan is also a big family in the Shangwu Dynasty."

"Though they’re not the top-of-the-line sort of family, there are also a thousand cultivators within the family. Add to that the non-cultivators, and you have about ten thousand people in the family, high and low."

"And that’s just the main branch, if you include the collateral branches, just the Tuoba Clan alone might number a hundred thousand."

Yan Dalong’s tone... carried a touch of gravitas, "This is a formidable character, his own cultivation and Taoist magic are not trivial, plus he has such a family background. Not to mention that he’s also in command of tens of thousands in the naval force, one can only say he’s extremely difficult to deal with." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"So, that’s how it is!" Yun Jiuqing suddenly understood, but then she had a bit more puzzlement, "So, that’s the half-person you were talking about! But why do you call him a half-person, isn’t he a complete person?"

The drunken Yan Dahu explained boisterously, "That’s because we brothers have been through even bigger battles, and in front of us, that thirty-four thousand naval force doesn’t count for much!"

"Unless that guy was in charge of fifty-six thousand naval forces, then I would respect him as a complete person! But with only thirty-four thousand under him, he’s just a half-person."

"Uh..." Yun Jiuqing was stunned, you can calculate it like this?

It’s just twenty thousand less, and that makes him only half a person? And thirty-four thousand is already quite impressive!

However, considering these two brothers seemed to have escaped from an encirclement of fifty-six thousand, it apparently made sense. Perhaps these twenty thousand less really didn’t seem enough to them, so they counted that General Tuoba as only half a person.

Wait a minute!

But they counted Daoist Fan Wu as a whole person, didn’t that mean... in their minds, Daoist Priest Fan alone was comparable to an army of fifty-six thousand?

Wow!

As time went on, Fan Wu and others learned a lot through dialogues with the two brothers... Both sides also roughly got to know each other’s backgrounds. For example, Fan Wu and others learned that these two brothers, in the Imperial City of the Shangwu Dynasty, also came from a family, but one that had already fallen into decline many years ago.

Because... this family was now down to just these two sole survivors. If the two died, then the family would be completely wiped out without descendants. It was precisely because they were born into a down-and-out family that they had inherited the path of cultivation and had become two cultivators.

The cultivation methods practiced by the brothers Yan Dalong and Yan Dahu were somewhat strange, at least different from those in the Great Zhou Dynasty. They didn’t practice talisman drawing or hand seals... They practiced a type of martial arts that could reach the extreme and kill Demons and Devils with their fists and feet.

And their bodies weren’t naturally like this—they became like this through practicing such a technique. That is to say, when their family hadn’t fallen yet, everyone in their family, averaged three meters tall.

Even in the memories of these two brothers, their deceased father was an enormous man over five meters tall.

Such a family heritage...
