Lu Ye’s attack had only allowed the cultivators in Soaring Dragon Boundary to have the capital to go against the Blood Race members. So far, the Blood Race members were still at an advantage.
He looked in a particular direction and saw Guang Jing and the Heavenly Sage in a one-on-one fight. The monk appeared furious as his robe had been torn apart, revealing his muscular figure. His vitality surged as he used the most lethal moves.
On the other hand, the Sword Cultivators from Grandeur Academy were in a difficult battle as the Blood Lord wandered around their formation.
He could also see that the old Blood Race member was looking warily at him from afar.
It only took him one glance to see everything that was happening in a radius of dozens of kilometres around the battlefield.
He was exhausted with no more energy left, so he had the urge to collapse to the ground and fall asleep. However, he knew he couldn’t do that yet.
It had come to a point where it would be a shame if they couldn’t succeed.
Sword Qi crisscrossed one another in the formation of Grandeur Academy. The Blood Lord gritted his teeth and growled. His mission to invade Soaring Dragon Boundary was a failure. Regardless of the decision the officials in Blood Boundary would make, his mistake was undeniable, and he didn’t have the nerve to return to his world. As such, fighting in this place until his death was his only option.
With that in mind, he gave up on defending himself and caused Yuan Changcun and the other Sword Cultivators to be battered.
When there were more than ten of them, they were already no match for the Blood Lord. Now that only several people were left, and they were all injured, how were they supposed to fend him off?
Faced with the Blood Lord’s bombardment of attacks, they couldn’t hold on for long.
Nevertheless, none of them backed down. Sword Cultivators were all unyielding people. They were willing to sacrifice themselves to deal with such a powerful opponent.
“All of you must go to Hell!” growled the Blood Lord. As he fully activated his power, he finally found a chance to approach Yuan Changcun. He was so swift that none of them could stop him.
The Blood Lord extended his hand and penetrated Yuan Changcun’s chest before grabbing his heart.
“Director!” exclaimed the Sword Cultivators around him. They wanted to save him, but it was too late.
Just as Yuan Changcun was about to lose his life, the Blood Lord froze all of a sudden. An indescribable sense of danger engulfed him. The sense of danger seemed to have materialised and made the space around him sticky, ensuring that he couldn’t move a muscle.
Before he even realised what was going on, he felt a pain in his neck and blacked out, after which he lost grip of Yuan Changcun’s heart.
Seizing the chance, Yuan Changcun activated his power and slashed the Blood Lord into pieces with his Sword Qi. The enemy’s blood was scattered everywhere.
The scarlet figure had just wielded his sword behind the Blood Lord earlier. Yuan Changcun looked at him with a grateful expression.
He knew that if Lu Ye hadn’t come to the rescue in time, he would’ve lost his life.
The Blood Lord’s back was to Lu Ye, so he didn’t know what had happened. However, Yuan Changcun was facing Lu Ye, but he still couldn’t see it clearly. At the most critical moment, he only saw something flashing across his eyes, and Lu Ye in the Armour Golem appeared the next instant.
This kind of speed far exceeded the limit of what the cultivators in this world could achieve. As such, no Cloud River Realm Master could’ve clearly seen what Lu Ye had done.
When Yuan Changcun blinked, the scarlet figure was already nowhere in sight as if the latter had never appeared before.
Somewhere on the battlefield that was several kilometres away, the Heavenly Sage was heard shrieking suddenly.
Yuan Changcun turned to look in that direction and saw the Heavenly Sage, who was the one who initiated the crisis in this world, getting decapitated. The scarlet figure once again disappeared the next moment.
Dozens of kilometres outside the battlefield, the old Blood Race member was running for his life. He had even activated a special Secret Technique for fleeing as he madly burned his Blood Qi.
He was astounded by the attack that could destroy the blood river.
If he could still use the power of the Divine Ocean Realm, he could try clashing with the attack. However, he was only left with the heritage of the Divine Ocean Realm, so how was he supposed to ward off the attack?
He could sense that the connection between Blood Boundary and this world had weakened.
As such, he immediately made a decision and ran away using his Secret Technique.
Nevertheless, the sense of danger he felt didn’t weaken just because he was far away from the battlefield. It had strengthened instead. He felt cold all over his body. It was a reaction caused by the fact that he was horrified deep within.
Although he knew he shouldn’t turn his head to look at this point, he couldn’t help doing it.
What came into his sight made him fall into a despairing state.
The scarlet figure was approaching him at an unimaginable speed. He was still far away a moment ago, but in the blink of an eye, the distance between them was cut in half. Another breath of time later, he came close to the old Blood Race member.
“I’ll destroy you!” The old Blood Race member was a resolute person. Since he was unable to run away, he immediately turned around and madly activated his power. His Blood Qi surged and split in three.
It was a kind of abstruse splitting technique. Looking at the three old Blood Race members with bare eyes, one would think they were identical. There wasn’t even a difference between their auras.
It was as if he had really split into three.
All three old Blood Race members had the complete power of the main body. One of them directly charged towards Lu Ye while the remaining two attacked him from the sides.
Faced with such a mysterious move, Lu Ye merely flew forward and gently wielded his Dragon Spine Saber.
A Dragon roar reverberated across the world. Following that, a blood arc emerged from the saber and broke through the Void before expanding.
The three figures were unable to dodge or ward off the attack as the blood arc cut across their waists.
Two of the figures turned into blood mists and dissipated. Only the one on the right was left. It was the main body of the old Blood Race member.
The lower part of his body with a smooth incision fell to the ground while the upper part still hovered in mid-air. His organs and blood scattered around the air.
Looking at the scarlet figure, the old Blood Race member let out a sigh. “I guess the Heavens want me dead!”
The Blood Race members were well-prepared before invading Soaring Dragon Boundary.
Blood Boundary had been sucking the heritage from Soaring Dragon Boundary for over eight hundred years, causing a downturn in the cultivation community in this world. Then, they also had those from the Heavenly Gully Cult serving as their moles. Everything was going to plan. Supposedly, it would only take the Blood Race members a short time before they could occupy the Soaring Dragon Boundary, and Blood Boundary would soon fully absorb the essence of this world.
No one could’ve expected that an unreasonable monster like Lu Ye would appear out of nowhere.
Cultivators were restricted by the limit in this world, so they could only use a corresponding power. However, the restriction of Armour Golem didn’t come from this world but from the cultivator himself.
Moreover, the Armour Golem was made from the body of a Dragon, and the saber was crafted using the Dragon spine. Such items were not supposed to appear in Soaring Dragon Boundary, and no one should be able to control them.
The old Blood Race member was killed while the war in the distance was still intense. However, after ending the opponent’s life, Lu Ye no longer had any energy left.
His head felt so heavy that he would pass out at any moment.
As a thought flashed across his mind, the Dragon King Armour around him shrunk as the scute retracted. The entire thing detached from Lu Ye and turned into an ordinary-looking ball the size of a baby’s head before falling to the ground.
With a whoosh, the Dragon Spine Saber jabbed into the ground and disappeared.
Before he blacked out, he extended his hand into the Spirit Beast Bag at his waist and released Amber. Then, he lost consciousness.
Prior to using the Dragon Throne, he had a discussion with Yi Yi and told her what he believed would happen.
Therefore, the moment Amber appeared, Yi Yi emerged from its body. When she saw that Lu Ye was in such a state, she knew that his expectation had come true.
Despite feeling flustered, she still quickly picked up the Dragon Throne and carried Lu Ye before fishing out her Spirit Boat. Then, she immediately took Lu Ye and Amber to the Valley of Medicine.
In the entire Soaring Dragon Boundary, only the Divine Healer was able to save Lu Ye.
As for the outcome of the war in the distance, it was the last of her concerns.
Lu Ye had fully activated his power to shatter the altar and destroy the blood river, thus weakening the connection between the two worlds. He also killed two of the strongest cultivators of the Blood Race at the most critical moment. Under such a circumstance, if those from Soaring Dragon Boundary were still defeated, there wasn’t any hope for this world.
Yi Yi had never driven her Spirit Artifact as fast as this. Still, she felt that it was too slow.
Lu Ye’s vitality was weak while he was in her arms. He was like a candlelight amidst the storm that might go out at any moment.
Not only that, Lu Ye’s current state was similar to that of Zhuang Bufan a while back. It could even be said that he was in a worse state than Zhuang Bufan.
The Dragon Throne had acknowledged Lu Ye to be its owner, thus allowing him to use a part of its power. However, what he had done required a lot more energy than Zhuang Bufan’s actions back then.
Zhuang Bufan had only activated the Dragon Throne once, and he was on his last legs. It was only natural that Lu Ye was in a more terrible state.
The Valley of Medicine came into sight in the distance. Two figures seemed to be waiting at the entrance. They were none other than the Divine Healer and Ye Liuli.
Yi Yi retracted the Conveyance Light and pleaded in a feeble voice, “Senior, please save Lu Ye!”
Since she was flustered, she forgot about Lu Ye’s identity in this world.
“I’ve found out everything.” The Divine Healer nodded. She had been waiting for Lu Ye here.
When Ye Liuli saw that Lu Ye was in such a state, she couldn’t help but recall the last days of Zhuang Bufan’s life. She covered her mouth with her hand as tears streamed down her face.
Tyrant Blade Manor had been destroyed. Only she and Lu Ye were left to support each other. If Lu Ye also lost his life, she would be on her own in this world.
A great sense of sorrow swept over her and almost drowned her.
As she was flabbergasted, a seal in her body seemed to have been shattered. A lot of strange information sprang into her mind all of a sudden and impacted her weak soul. She exclaimed and collapsed to the ground.
The unexpected event shocked Yi Yi. Still, she instinctively supported Ye Liuli’s weight and dashed into the Valley of Medicine with the Divine Healer.
The war under the Heavenly Gully lasted for several days. When all the dust settled, the battlefield was covered with the corpses of the cultivators from both Races. The ground under the Heavenly Gully had been dyed red.
All the survivors were badly injured, and their eyes were bloodshot. Despite their exhaustion, they could barely conceal their excitement.
“We’ve won…” someone muttered from somewhere on the battlefield.
“We’ve won…” More voices were heard saying the same thing.
Following that, they started shouting in thunderous voices. “We’ve won!”
It was a tough war for the cultivators from Soaring Dragon Boundary. Despite their victory, only twenty per cent of the participants had survived.
