In the blood river, there was nothing wrong with the female Holy Seed's neck, but in reality, her head had already been separated from her body. It was only because Jian Guhong had attacked too quickly that nothing could be seen from the outside.
Even so, her aura had risen to an extremely dangerous level in an instant. She gave off the feeling that she was a balloon that had been stretched to its limit and could explode at any time.
The activation of the Blood Explosion Technique did not end because of her death. Instead, it continued to be activated.
Wu Chang could retreat, so could Jian Guhong, but Lu Ye could not. The blood river had not been retracted, so where could he retreat to?
Faced with such a crisis, he could only frantically urge the blood river's power to squeeze in the enemy's direction.
With a loud bang, the violent power surged. The female Holy Seed turned into a cloud of blood mist and scattered everywhere. Wherever she was, blood waves surged, and the aftermath spread out fiercely.
This was the result of Lu Ye using the blood river to suppress it. If he did not suppress it, the power of the explosion would be even more terrifying.
Outside the blood river, Jian Guhong and the other two looked at the twisting blood river. They could clearly sense that the female Holy Seed's aura had disappeared. They could not help but sigh. Killing a Holy Seed was really not easy.
Moreover, this time, if Lu Ye had not helped and used the blood river to restrict some of the enemy's abilities, it would have been hard to say whether they could have killed her or not. There was a high chance that they would have ended in failure. Once the enemy used the Blood Escape Technique, Jian Guhong would be the only one who could chase after her. Wu Chang and Wei Fufeng could only eat the dust behind.
In comparison, Feng Wujiang, who had once single-handedly killed a Holy Seed, was indeed much stronger than them.
Wu Chang was not too happy. He only looked nervously at the wriggling blood river and shouted, "Lu Ye, are you still alive?"
He was sure that Lu Ye was not dead because his aura was still there. The blood river was still there, but Wu Chang was not sure. Lu Ye had been injured by the enemy's explosion. If he was injured, how serious his injuries would be.
Soon, Lu Ye's voice came from the blood river. "I'm fine. Seniors, please protect me for a while."
Now that the enemy was dead, he had to find a way to retrieve his blood river. Under normal circumstances, this was not difficult. If he could use the blood river, he could naturally retrieve it.
But now, this blood river was not pure. It was the product of the fusion between himself and the female Saint Seed. Lu Ye needed to refine or separate all the parts that did not belong to him.
This was not a difficult thing for him to do.
What surprised him was that after the female Blood Breed chose to self-destruct, there was a drop of golden blood left where she originally stood.
The Golden Blood exuded a very special aura; it was a drop of Saint Blood.
Moreover, the volume of this drop of Saint Blood was several times larger than the one Lu Ye had obtained before.
The female Holy Seed's Holy Blood was divided into two parts. One part had yet to be refined. When Lu Ye activated the Blood River, this part was mixed in with the Blood River. Golden ribbons of light appeared, but this part had been swallowed and refined by Lu Ye's Talent Tree.
This was only a very small portion of the Holy Blood that the female Holy Seed had obtained. Most of it had already been completely refined and integrated into her bloodline.
This was the drop of Saint Blood that Lu Ye was looking at.
He did not expect that after the Holy Seed died, the Holy Blood that it had refined would be preserved and not disappear with the Holy Seed's death.
Such a large drop of Saint Blood was much larger than the amount that Lu Ye had obtained before. He understood that it was because of the difference in the amount of Saint Blood that there was a difference in bloodline between them. This was why the female Holy Seed could suppress his bloodline.
If he was really a Blood Breed, even if he had a Holy Seed, he would not have much power to fight back.
However, he was a human, and bloodline suppression could only be reflected in blood arts.
In other words, if Lu Ye did not use blood arts, bloodline suppression would have no effect on him. This was also why Lu Ye did not feel bloodline suppression before.
However, if he used blood arts, the feeling would be very obvious.
In this way, there were actually differences between Holy Seeds. It was just that the human side had never known about this. After all, this was a secret between Holy Seeds, and no one would casually spread this matter. Even the human powerhouses of the Jade Blood Holy Land and the Blood Breed had been fighting for so many years, no one could detect this.
If that was the case, then as long as he could obtain enough Saint Blood, wouldn't he be able to suppress all Holy Seeds?
Lu Ye suddenly realized that he seemed to have discovered something incredible. One.
After a short while, the Blood River withdrew, and the drop of Saint Blood was also absorbed into Lu Ye's body. The energy contained within this thing was too great, and it could not be refined in a short time. It would not be too late to slowly refine it later.
Once he completely refined this drop of Saint Blood, Lu Ye believed that the next time he encountered a Holy Seed, he would not be in such a sorry state. At the very least, there should not be many Holy Seeds that could suppress him when using blood arts.
Saint Blood was not something that could be obtained casually. The fact that the female Holy Seed had been able to obtain it this time was probably due to luck.
Wu Chang returned in a flash. "Good boy, if it weren't for you this time, I'm afraid the three of us would have returned empty-handed. Speaking of which, how did you use the Blood Race's blood arts?"
To tell the truth, Wu Chang had been given a fright when Lu Ye had activated the Blood River. He had thought that another Blood Race expert had charged into the battlefield, but when he realized it was actually Lu Ye, he was a bit confused.
It was just that the battle had been too intense for him to ask about it.
Lu Ye replied honestly, "Last time, when I was cultivating in the Blood Sea beside the Saint Island, I was lucky enough to refine a drop of Saint Blood. I obtained the Blood Race's bloodline inheritance, allowing me to use blood arts."
Jian Guhong and the others had no idea what Saint Blood was. This was their first time hearing about it, but from Lu Ye's words, they had a general idea.
"Then a Saint Blood human can also refine it?" Wu Chang clicked his tongue in wonder.
At their level of cultivation, there was no way for them to improve any further. Therefore, they were very interested in the strange powers outside of their own cultivation system. Stones from other mountains could be used to polish jade. Perhaps they could find the path to the upper realm through all kinds of crooked methods.
"Humans can refine it, but seniors, it's best that you don't try it rashly. After refining the Saint's Blood, you will become a member of the Blood Clan. I once knew a human girl who refined the Saint's Blood Clan's Saint Seed."
"Then how come you're fine?" Wu Chang didn't understand.
Lu Ye said, "I have a way to neutralize some of the Saint Blood's evil nature. I can maintain my human body."
Wu Chang didn't say anything specific, and Wu Chang didn't ask. He only nodded, extinguishing any thoughts of refining a drop of Saint Blood.
Although he wanted to pursue a higher realm and cultivation base, he couldn't accept losing his human identity and becoming a Blood Race Holy Seed.
"Seniors, now that this matter is over, junior needs to continue on my way.
。’
Wasting half a month's time to kill a Holy Seed was worth it. At the very least, Lu Ye had figured out some of the Holy Seed's secrets. He had also discovered a way to quickly kill a Holy Seed. This should be of some help to the future situation.
The Saint Seeds were the most troublesome things to deal with in the Blood Refinement Realm. Although there weren't many of them, there were still quite a few of them. Even Jian Guhong and the others didn't have any hope of killing them in a one-on-one fight. Even if they worked together, they still might not succeed.
As long as the Saint Seeds in the Blood Refinement Realm were not eliminated, the race war between humans and Blood Race Holy Seeds could not be considered a victory.
If he hadn't shouldered the task of placing the Tianji Pillar, Lu Ye would have gone deep into the underground Blood River to search for more Saint Blood.
However, since they had to place the Tianji Pillar and ensure that the army of cultivators from the Nine Regions would advance in the future, they had to delay for half a month. Killing a Holy Seed was still quite cost-effective. At the very least, Lu Ye had figured out some of the secrets of the Holy Seed and had also found a way to quickly kill the Holy Seed, which should be of some help to the future situation.
The Saint Seeds were the most troublesome things to deal with in the Blood Refinement Realm. Although there weren't many of them, there were still quite a few of them in the vast Blood Refinement Realm. Even Jian Guhong and the others didn't have any hope of killing them in a one-on-one fight. Even if they worked together, they might not succeed.
As long as the Saint Seeds in the Blood Refinement Realm were not eliminated, the race war between humans and Blood Race Holy Seeds could not be considered a victory.
If he hadn't shouldered the task of placing the Tianji Pillar, Lu Ye would have gone deep into the underground Blood River to search for more Saint Blood.
But since he had to place the Tianji Pillar and ensure the future invasion of the Nine States' cultivators into the Blood Refinement Realm, this matter could only be temporarily put aside. It wouldn't be too late to do it again if there was still time after the Tianji Pillar was placed.
"Senior Wu Chang, I'll leave those Tianji Pillars to you." Lu Ye turned to look at Wu Chang.
Wu Chang grinned. "Don't worry, it will be properly arranged."
"Then this junior will take his leave first."
Lu Ye left and took Lu Chang, who was not far away, with him as he continued north.
After watching him leave, Wu Chang also disappeared quickly. Jian Guhong and Wei Fufeng left together. In the blink of an eye, the bustling blood pool became empty. Not even the slightest trace of a great battle was left. Because this great battle had taken place in the Blood River, no one would have thought that a Saint Seed of the Blood Race had been killed in this place.
Wu Chang took half of the Tianji Pillar, so time was not so tight.
Moreover, Lu Ye didn't have to take the zigzag route to place the Tianji Pillar. Now, he could go north in a straight line and spend less time on the way.
While hurrying, Lu Ye also refined the drop of Saint Blood that he had absorbed into his body.
He found that as the refinement progressed, his understanding of blood arts became deeper and deeper. Apart from that, his strength also increased slightly.
This was normal because the Saint Blood contained an enormous amount of energy. Refining it like this would naturally improve Lu Ye's foundation.
Apart from that, there didn't seem to be any special benefits.
But this was the result from the standpoint of the human race. It was different from the standpoint of the Blood Race. Just the fact that the bloodline had become more noble was enough to make the Saint Seeds scramble like ducks.
Lu Ye vaguely understood one thing, and that was why there weren't many Saint Seeds in the Blood Refinement Realm.
Logically speaking, even if it was difficult for a Saint Seed to be born, the Blood Refinement Realm had existed for countless years. After many years of accumulation, this number should have been accumulated.
But in fact, the number of Saint Seeds in the entire Blood Refinement Realm probably didn't exceed a hundred.
It was very likely that it was a battle between Saint Seeds. The Saint Seed with a lower bloodline was killed by the Saint Seed with a higher bloodline, and its Saint Blood was stolen.
