Sensing the old ghost cultivator's malice, Dao Shisan appeared in front of Lu Ye in a flash. His gaze was solemn and his aura was ready to explode.
The old ghost cultivator stopped in his tracks, slightly surprised.
"They're not blood slaves." The old sword cultivator called Jian Guhong slowly opened his eyes and said.
"Why do you say that?" The old ghost cultivator tilted his head and looked at him.
Jian Guhong's gaze was like a sword as he looked at Dao Shisan in front of Lu Ye. "This person should be a Dao Soldier!"
"Dao Soldier?" The others were stunned and carefully sized him up.
After a while, the female cultivator nodded slightly. "I was wondering why I felt that he was weird. So he's a Dao Soldier. Your eyes are really sharp. You actually saw through him at a glance."
The old ghost cultivator was stunned. "Why would there be a Dao Soldier in the Blood Refining Realm?" He looked at Lu Ye. "Kid, you made this Dao Soldier?"
Dao Shisan was a Dao Soldier. Dao Shisan had personally told Lu Ye that. However, Lu Ye really didn't know what a Dao Soldier was.
When he first heard this title, he thought it was a creation of Yanshi, similar to his master's clone, Xiao Die.
However, Dao Shisan wasn't a creation of Yanshi. He was a living person.
"No." Lu Ye shook his head honestly.
"Then why is he following you and being so loyal to you?" The old ghost cultivator clearly didn't believe him.
Normally, a Dao Soldier would only be loyal to their master. However, this matter was indeed strange. He also didn't think that Lu Ye, a True Lake Realm cultivator, could make a Dao Soldier like Dao Shisan.
"Maybe he and I hit it off." Lu Ye naturally couldn't say that it was the work of a soul controller.
"Nonsense." The old ghost cultivator was amused by him.
"But why would there be a Dao Soldier in the Blood Refining Realm?" The female cultivator frowned. She really couldn't understand.
In the Blood Refining Realm, humans didn't have a good cultivation environment. Even if they were taken in as blood slaves, they couldn't have high cultivation. Therefore, Divine Sea Realm blood slaves were very rare.
Not to mention Dao Soldiers. It was difficult for humans to cultivate, so who could make a Dao Soldier?
"That's why I brought them along," Jian Guhong said slowly. "Just because there aren't any Dao Soldiers in the Blood Refining Realm doesn't mean that there aren't any other places."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's bodies trembled.
"Old Ghost, you mean …" The old ghost cultivator's eyes narrowed. However, Lu Ye couldn't hear what the old ghost cultivator said next. He only sensed a surge of Spiritual Sense. Clearly, these people were communicating with each other using Spiritual Sense.
As they conversed, they kept looking at him and Dao Shisan.
After a short while, their conversation ended. The female magic cultivator nodded slightly. "It's easy to verify whether or not they're blood slaves. We'll definitely encounter vampires on the way back. We'll know when we test them."
With that, she produced a spirit boat. "Let's go."
The few of them landed on the spirit boat in a flash. Lu Ye gave Dao Thirteen a look, and the two of them landed on the boat as well.
The female Dharma cultivator channeled her spiritual energy, and the spirit boat immediately turned into a stream of light that shot into the sky.
Along the way, the Spirit Sea Realm cultivators all seemed to have a lot on their minds and were very quiet. Lu Ye had many questions to ask, but it was not the right time to ask.
Along the way, they encountered a group of vampires that should be heading to the Star-Moon Holy Land. Under the command of the female Dharma cultivator, Lu Ye and Dao Thirteen jumped off the spirit boat and rushed into the group of vampires to kill them.
This was their way of verifying whether or not Lu Ye and Dao Thirteen were blood slaves.
As blood slaves, they couldn't harm vampires in the slightest. In their hearts, vampires were supreme.
Naturally, they wouldn't be blood slaves if they dared to kill vampires so wantonly.
After verifying that Lu Ye and Dao Thirteen were pure humans, the old ghost cultivator's attitude towards Lu Ye became much more amiable. He also started chatting with him.
He was surprised to learn that Lu Ye had come all the way from the north to join the Jade Blood Holy Land.
One had to know that this journey wasn't short. Even though Dao Thirteen was a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator, it wasn't easy for two humans to travel all the way south.
"Kid, how did you sneak into the vampires' group?" The old ghost cultivator was very puzzled.
Logically speaking, if Lu Ye and Dao Thirteen weren't blood slaves, they shouldn't have been able to stay safe in the vampires' group. However, they were able to stay safe in the hundreds of thousands of vampires.
"Junior has a few tricks up my sleeve. I was able to trick a vampire into thinking that we were his blood slaves," Lu Yehanhu explained.
The old ghost cultivator understood and glanced at Dao Thirteen. "No wonder he's so loyal to you. You used that method on him as well."
Dao soldiers generally had low intelligence. Since Lu Ye had the means to confuse vampires, it wasn't a problem for him to confuse a Dao soldier.
"Yes."
The old ghost cultivator warned, "When we go back to the holy land, don't use that method casually. If I find out, I won't let you off easily."
Lu Ye said happily, "Seniors, you really are from the Jade Blood Holy Land."
"It's the real deal."
Lu Ye's heart calmed down.
The spirit boat flew very quickly. Although Dao Thirteen was also a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator, he was limited by the quality of Lu Ye's flying spirit tool. Thus, although his flying spirit tool wasn't slow, it couldn't compare to the speed of the boat.
In terms of speed alone, the current flying speed was naturally much faster than before.
The further they went, the more desolate it became.
It wasn't because of the environment, but because this place was close to the Divine Gate Sea. The human experts of the Jade Blood Holy Land would often go out of the Divine Gate Sea to take a look. Which vampire dared to gather here?
It could be said that no vampire dared to casually step into the area around the Divine Gate Sea. It would only become lively when the Blood Race's army attacked the Jade Blood Holy Land.
A few days later, a vast expanse of blood-red appeared in front of them.
They had arrived at the Divine Gate Sea.
The seawater was like a pool of blood, and it was exactly the same as the blood pool Lu Ye had seen before. However, this blood pool was a bit too big.
Elegant, right?
The spirit boat didn't stop. It flew over the Blood Sea and continued forward.
After flying for another half a day, they finally arrived at an island that was scattered all over the place. From afar, these islands looked as small as chess pieces in the Blood Sea. However, when they got closer, they realized that these islands were not small at all.
The islands were oval-shaped and distributed above the Blood Sea. In the middle of these islands, there was an even larger island.
On each of the outer islands, there was a huge city. The city walls were covered with all kinds of fortifications, and human cultivators were going in and out of the city.
When it was time for the Blood Race to attack the Jade Blood Holy Land, the human side was naturally actively preparing for war. The many fortifications on the outer islands could be said to be the Jade Blood Holy Land's strongest line of defense. It was also because of this impregnable line of defense that the Jade Blood Holy Land could defeat the Blood Race's attacks again and again.
However, Lu Ye felt that things weren't so simple.
From the information he had received, the Blood Race's army was at least a million soldiers. With such a huge lineup, including Holy Venerables and Heavenly Venerables, the Jade Blood Holy Land might not be able to stop them with just this line of defense.
Unless … the Jade Blood Holy Land had enough human experts.
For example, Jian Guhong's team.
But could there really be so many of them? To be honest, Lu Ye was already very surprised to see four such experts at once. No matter how strong the Jade Blood Holy Land's foundation was, there shouldn't be too many of them.
He couldn't understand.
But he had already achieved the goal of this trip.
It had been nearly five months since he set off from Qianliu Blessed Land, and he finally arrived at the only human force in this world.
The Dacheng he wanted to find must be here.
The female cultivator drove the spirit boat straight to the big island in the center of the islands. That should be the foundation of the Jade Blood Holy Land.
On the big island, there were human figures everywhere. Many of them had cultivation, and there were also mortals who had never cultivated before. However, these mortals didn't have to experience the hardships of the human race outside, so they lived in peace and contentment.
This made Lu Ye, who had seen all kinds of hardships of the human race after coming to this world, sigh.
The Jade Blood Holy Land could only shelter a limited number of humans. Apart from the humans here, the vast majority of humans lived in the abyss of suffering.
Now, there was one more blessed land in the Blood Refining World. With the improvement of Lan Qiyue's strength and the continuous expansion of his territory, the number of humans he could shelter would definitely increase.
Along the way, he had enslaved many blessed lords of the Blood Kindred, and even a Celestial Venerable. Under the rule of those enslaved Blood Kindred, the human race's situation should be better.
But this still couldn't solve the problem fundamentally.
The Jade Blood Holy Land was a hope, a prairie fire. If one day, this prairie fire lit up the entire Blood Refining World, the human race would truly be free from their suffering.
The spirit boat stopped at a spirit mountain in the center of the big island.
The spirit mountain wasn't high, only a few hundred feet. There was a continuous cluster of buildings on it. Lu Ye guessed that it was the place where the higher-ups of the Jade Blood Holy Land gathered.
"Wait here," the female cultivator instructed him. She put away the spirit boat and walked up the spirit mountain with the other three.
After returning from a mission, they naturally had to report back. Although they didn't kill Saint Xing Yue this time, at least they had a rough idea of the military strength of the northern battlefront.
In this way, the Holy Land could also respond.
Before the Holy Lord summoned Lu Ye, they couldn't casually bring Lu Ye up.
Lu Ye and Dao Shisan stood quietly and waited. There were no cultivators on duty here, and ordinary humans wouldn't come close to this place. This made the two seem a little out of place.
After waiting for a long time, they felt a little bored. They looked around and saw a stone tablet not far away.
Lu Ye glanced at it. At first, he didn't pay much attention to it. But soon, he shifted his gaze with a surprised expression. He walked up to the stone tablet and sized it up with rapt attention.
At the same time, at the top of the mountain, a middle-aged man stood on a floating stone with his hands behind his back, overlooking the islands.
Jian Guhong and the others walked behind the man and cupped their fists together. "Holy Lord.
The man turned around, revealing a handsome face with a warm smile on his face. "You're all back? You've worked hard.
