By the end of the day's battles, the six nations had lost another seven hundred men, while the Celestial Nation had only lost around thirty. Yue Yao was quite satisfied with this result. As she retreated, she took a few more glances at Miao Yi, only to realize that he had been silent the entire time.
The days passed, and in the blink of an eye, almost twenty days had passed. The six nations had lost around fifteen thousand men, and there were less than ten thousand left.
The Yao Nation had less than three hundred men left, while the Celestial Nation, Boundless Nation, Devil Nation, and Ghost Nation had around a thousand men each. As for the Buddha Nation, they still had around four thousand men left. Originally, the Celestial Nation and Yao Nation had around the same number of men. However, with Miao Yi overseeing the Celestial Nation, their losses were greatly reduced, making the Yao Nation stand out.
Truth be told, they could only blame themselves. If they hadn't rushed out to capture Niu Youde and attracted the attention of everyone else, they wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state.
Bai Ziliang and Lan Susu had ugly expressions on their faces. They were worried that the Yao Nation participants would all be wiped out except for them. That would be too embarrassing.
Fortunately, the remaining three hundred or so men were all elites among elites. It would be difficult to take them down, and the number of people challenging them had decreased. The Buddha Nation was more unlucky. Even though they had more experts, their cultivations were also much weaker. As a result, they became the target of the other five nations.
With over ten thousand men dead, the entire battlefield was practically dyed red with blood. The thick stench of blood permeated the air as soon as one got close.
The day's battles came to an end, and the various armies retreated once more. It was inevitable that the battered teams would be regrouped.
The cries of spiritual beast mounts that had lost their owners could be heard from the distant mountains. For the sake of fairness, no other mounts besides dragon steeds were allowed. Even the Gu Sanzheng trio had to keep their Crystal-Armored Hurricane Beasts. Many of the spiritual beasts that had lost their owners wandered around the island, whimpering every night.
Most of them didn't even know if they were dead or alive, so no one was in the mood to care about them for now. Even if they wanted to tame them, they would have to wait until the battles were over. Otherwise, their deaths would be for naught.
"Little Brother. What are you looking at? "
Seeing Miao Yi staring blankly at the place where the spiritual beasts were whimpering and the others had all left, Sikong Wuwei stepped forward and asked.
Miao Yi snapped back to reality. Shaking his head, he smiled and said, "It's nothing. I just feel that it would be a pity to waste these rare Spirit Beasts. I want to bring two back for my maidservants as mounts. Unfortunately, I don't know how to tame them. Even if I were to capture them, it would be useless."
Not long after they returned. Miao Yi and the others suddenly realized that Gu Sanzheng and the others were nowhere to be seen. They looked around the cave, but couldn't find them.
When he saw the three of them again, each of them had a few beast sacks in their hands. Tan Lao tossed a beast sack to Miao Yi and said, "These are two Black Kirins? Drop out? Huai Ren Yi Moat Plotting Carbon Bristle Peddler Yi Rui? Eh? Ham pepper, ham pepper, ham pepper! Perspiration of the Silk Thread? Base
Miao Yi was stunned. He imbued his transcendence energy into the beast sack to investigate, only to see two ferocious beasts with sharp fangs and claws. Their bodies were covered with inky black scales, and their heads resembled that of a fierce tiger. They also had ferocious horns, and there was even a ring of fur around their necks that resembled that of a male lion. There was a steel needle stuck into each of their foreheads, and both of them were unconscious inside the beast sack.
When he turned around, he noticed that Gu Sanzheng and Ye Xin had each tossed a beast sack to Zhao Fei and Situ Wuwei. Even Pi Junzi and Tao Ruchun were included. The latter two were overjoyed.
Miao Yi didn't expect them to successfully capture all these Spirit Beasts just because he casually mentioned it. Tan Lao must have contributed the most to this. The members of the School of Imperial Beasts naturally had their ways of dealing with these Spirit Beasts.
Looking at the three of them sitting cross-legged at the side, Miao Yi couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you want me to avenge your three major sects? Now that you're giving this to me, what if I die in your hands? Wouldn't this be a wasted gift? "
Ye Xin rolled her eyes at him. She closed her eyes. Tan Lao smiled bitterly and did the same.
However, Gu Sanzheng calmly said, "The people sent by the Six Sages have changed the rules of the game. We need you now. Otherwise, we aren't confident that we can return alive to report to our masters. Since we have a reason, we can also explain it to our masters. "As he said this, he closed his eyes and didn't say another word.
Miao Yi chuckled. He could tell that the three of them had no intention of taking revenge.
Zhao Fei shook his head and smiled. Sikong Wuwei chuckled and said, "I've been watching people kill each other for so long. My hands are getting itchy. I say, Little Brother, your skills are practically invincible in a situation like this. Right now, most of the treasures that the 180,000 cultivators have accumulated for thousands of years are in the hands of these people. Just a single one of them is equivalent to many years of being Manor Heads. Aren't you tempted? "
"Let's wait and see. It won't be too late to make a move after the treasures are in the hands of a few people. They won't be able to escape anyway!" Miao Yi said with a smile. He sat cross-legged at the side and tossed an Orb of Will into his mouth.
Actually, his body had already recovered a few days ago. However, he didn't want to participate in the battle, so he took the opportunity to cultivate.
It wasn't that he was afraid of anything. It was just that accidents were bound to happen if he fought with his life on the line. At this point in the battle, the remaining participants were all experts. Teams of ten Blue Lotus Ninth Grade experts would appear at every turn. They were no pushovers either.
Most importantly, his ultimate technique, Ten Strikes in One Spear, consumed too much of his energy. He couldn't withstand it at all, so he couldn't use it often. Hence, he either didn't use it at all, or he would use it at the critical moment. It wasn't worth it to participate in the battle now. It wouldn't be too late to make a move when the majority of the treasures were more concentrated. If he was too greedy, his abilities would be limited.
The next day, the six forces gathered once again, and the battle to the death began once more. After Sikong Wuwei's reminder, Miao Yi gave up on cultivating and finally opened his eyes to observe the battle. Ever since the final battle began, he hadn't had a good look at it.
Since he had decided to make a move at the very end, he didn't want to fight a battle he wasn't confident in. He had to see who was stronger and who was weaker, and who was easier to deal with.
Miao Yi shook his head as he watched the cultivators being decapitated amidst the screams, or falling into pools of blood. The so-called "fairer method" was actually just because the representatives of the six forces couldn't attack the cultivators of their respective countries. Instead, they used the hands of others to look good or feel at ease. In the end, there wasn't much of a difference. The number of survivors wouldn't increase either.
"Has your body recovered?" Yue Yao's voice transmission suddenly sounded in his ear.
Miao Yi thought to himself, 'This isn't good. This Little Sister can't have been staring at me, waiting for me to make a move, right?' Turning around, he happened to meet his Little Sister's alluring gaze. He nodded helplessly and said, "Almost."
Yue Yao's eyes flickered. She had always found it strange that this guy never had any improper thoughts when he looked at her. The way he looked at her was no different from how he looked at a man. Could there be something wrong with this guy?
Thinking of this. She secretly scolded herself. She didn't know what she was thinking. Could it be that she couldn't wait for him to have improper thoughts about her?
"With your strength, your spear arts must be extraordinary. To be able to reach your level of spear techniques, you must be extraordinary. Even if you don't use that killer move, I'm afraid no one in this battle is a match for you. I wonder if you're willing to help me snatch a few Geotranscendence Bangles? "
'As expected, he's been watching me all this time! ' Miao Yi sighed inwardly. However, he was also happy. At least this Big Brother of his wasn't completely useless. He could still help his Little Sister out a little.
Miao Yi furrowed his brows and asked, "Yue Yao, are these Geotranscendence Bangles very important to you?"
"Of course they are. I am here representing the Realm Beyond Heaven. How could I allow the Realm Beyond Heaven to be suppressed by the other five clans?"
"How many Geotranscendence Bangles do you have?"
"I have more than thirty thousand now."
Miao Yi was a little surprised. "Including the ten thousand that Yun Fei Yang lost to you?"
"Yes!"
"Before Yun Fei Yang lost to you, he already had more than thirty thousand. If you hadn't won against him, I'm afraid it would be difficult for you to take first place!"
Yue Yao asked in surprise, "Yun Fei Yang already had that many before?"
Miao Yi nodded and asked, "Yue Yao, do you really want to take first place?"
"Of course! But now that you mention it... I'm afraid the other clans won't have any fewer Geotranscendence Bangles than me. "
"Don't be afraid. I'm here!" Miao Yi said as he scanned his surroundings. He furrowed his brows as he tried to come up with a solution.
Little did he know that Yue Yao was completely stunned by his words. She stared at him in a daze, her thoughts instantly drifting back to when she was young. Whenever she was in trouble, there would always be someone who would rub her head and give her confidence, "Don't be afraid. Big Brother is here!"
These words caused Yue Yao's heart to tremble. She felt a surge of warmth coursing through her body. If it wasn't for the fact that the person in front of her didn't look like the person in her memory, and that they weren't the same person, she really suspected that her big brother was right in front of her.
Yue Yao came to her senses and recalled the conversation just now. Yan Beihong's tone had unwittingly made her lower her head. It was as if he was born to speak to her in such a tone. It was so natural that she didn't notice anything amiss at first, and just went along with his question and answer.
What left Yue Yao the most speechless was that Yan Beihong seemed to have forgotten to address her as' Lord Sixth '. Instead, he casually addressed her as Yue Yao as though they were very familiar with each other.
Yue Yao gritted her teeth. This bastard was really impudent. No wonder he did not see her as a woman when he looked at her. It seemed that he did not have any regard for her at all. So what if his spear skills were good? If I didn't propose this rule, you can try fighting against his magic weapon!
However, he didn't say anything wrong, so she couldn't blame him. Moreover, he had already boasted. She wanted to see how this guy was going to help her get first place!
Night fell. As soon as the day's duels ended, Miao Yi immediately summoned Zhao Fei and the others back to the cave for a discussion.
Not long after, they all came out with strange expressions on their faces.
Miao Yi led Gu Sanzheng and the others to the dueling arena. They breathed in the air that reeked of blood and gazed up at the starry sky.
Zhao Fei, Sikong Wuwei, Tao Yongchun, and Pi Junzi respectively headed towards the Yao Nation, Ghost Nation, Boundless Nation, and Buddha Nation's territories.
With the current situation, Sikong Wuwei didn't need to put up much of a defense. He easily entered the Buddha Nation's territory and jumped off his dragon steed in front of a cave. He stretched his head out to look at the ten monks sitting cross-legged inside, then happily barged in. He cupped his fists and said, "Greetings, Venerable Ones."
"Why have you come here, Almsgiver?" The monks cautiously stood up. They felt that this person looked a little familiar.
"There is no need to be nervous, Venerable Ones. I am here to deliver a message to you on behalf of Yan Beihong." Sikong Wuwei chuckled and said, "Yan Beihong is currently waiting for you at the dueling arena. Please make haste."
"Yan Beihong?" The monks were shocked. Who wouldn't know of Yan Beihong by now? At the same time, they recalled who this person was. Wasn't he one of the people in Yan Beihong's team?
The leader of the monks asked, "May I know what business Almsgiver Yan has with us? If you have something to say, why don't you just say it? Why must you go to the dueling arena? "
