As Lu Ye got closer, he actually discovered a familiar aura.
Li Shang was here too!
Speaking of which, he did not find any trace of Li Shang after entering the lotus pond, he did not expect to meet her here.
Taking a closer look, there were a total of four spiritlings, including Li Shang, and all of them were late stage Constellation Realm, their strength was similar to Li Shang's.
If it was a chaotic battle, who knew how long it would take for the four spiritlings to decide the victor.
But the current situation was disadvantageous to Li Shang, because the three spiritlings did not care about martial ethics, and actually teamed up to deal with her.
Obviously, they planned to eliminate Li Shang first, and then fight the remaining three.
This was a normal method for the spiritlings when they encountered a high quality God Lotus, but it was unknown if the three spiritlings had teamed up at the last minute or had already formed an alliance.
When Lu Ye arrived, Li Shang already had thoughts of retreating.
After all, it was one against three, everyone knew each other's strength, how could she be their opponent? Forcefully staying behind was just asking for trouble.
Just as she made up her mind, she unexpectedly sensed a familiar aura approaching, she quickly turned her head to look, and actually saw Lu Ye's figure.
She calmed down!
Others did not know of Lu Ye's strength, but she knew, after all, she had possessed Lu Ye many times to fight with Yue Yao, and a few Yue Yao had died at Lu Ye's hands, even Rizhao had one.
But the spiritlings' fights were not the same as normal fights, although Lu Ye was strong, she did not know if he could gain any advantage in such a fight.
Just as she was thinking, Lu Ye had already made his move, spirit power surged, complex veined patterns spread out, in a blink of an eye, a short blade without a handle appeared, and attacked one of the spiritlings.
God Edge!
The Holy Guardian used his soul power to activate it, and it didn't appear to be much different from using his spirit power. It was a protective barrier.
But the God Edge was not the same, if it was constructed with spirit power, it would be attached to the blade, greatly increasing the sharpness of the weapon, if it was constructed with spirit power, it would appear as a sharp blade.
Of course, if there was a suitable spirit treasure, it could be added to the spirit treasure, but Lu Ye did not have any spirit treasures that could attack!
At first glance, the sharpness was like a short blade without a handle. It tore through the water and instantly arrived in front of a Soul.
The Soul sensed that something was amiss and immediately urged his soul power to protect his body. However, he soon revealed a horrified expression. This was because even with his late-stage Constellation Realm foundation, the defense he condensed was so weak that it could not even withstand a single blow from the sharpness.
Then, the dazzling light pierced through his body!
The Spiritas cultivator cried out in alarm and hastily retreated.
If it were a body of flesh and blood that suffered such an attack, blood would definitely splatter everywhere. However, the Soul Race was ultimately a soul body. Therefore, such a bloody scene did not appear.
Such injuries were neither serious nor minor for the Soul race. Normally, it would not be difficult for them to recover, let alone now that they were in the lotus pond. With the surrounding pond water as support, recovery was much easier.
But the spiritas cultivator revealed a look of horror. Although it was only a single strike, he could already feel just how terrifying Lu Ye's attack was. It wasn't something he could block. Luckily, he had two temporary allies!
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, his expression turned sluggish. At the same time, his two dying allies also froze, not daring to move.
Under the gazes of three pairs of eyes, Lu Ye quietly stood not too far away. Soul power surged around his body and sharp objects began to rapidly form around him. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of sharp divine runes had appeared around Lu Ye, firmly locking onto the three Spiritas cultivators.
The three Spiritas cultivators could clearly sense that as long as they dared to move, they would inevitably welcome Lu Ye's barrage of attacks. After witnessing the ferocity of this attack with their own eyes, how could they not know just how terrifying these divine runes were?
If they were struck by so many divine runes at once, it wouldn't be as simple as just being injured.
Luckily, the other party had no intention of launching an attack. They were likely only here to deter them.
As their eyes met, the three Spiritas cultivators tactfully shook their heads and left. If they weren't Lu Ye's match, there was no point in forcing themselves to stay.
Moreover, when the Spiritas fought, they would stop at a certain point. It was rare for a decisive battle to occur.
"What kind of soul technique is this?" Above the lotus pond, Elder Xu Yuan rubbed his eyes hard and asked in shock.
The other elders also had looks of disbelief on their faces. They really wanted to know what this was.
They all knew that Lu Ye was a human, but for a human to be able to cultivate such an exquisite soul technique, it was simply too inconceivable.
Although Lu Ye had displayed the Holy Guard technique before, this was the first time he used divine runes. For a moment, the elders of the Spiritas were shocked.
This was because the speed of the divine runes was too fast. It shouldn't be an ability that a Constellation cultivator should have. Moreover, its killing power was incomparably terrifying. The Spiritas of the same realm couldn't block it at all.
The Spiritas' expression was grave as he slowly said, "This shouldn't be a soul technique!"
"It's not a soul technique?" The elders of the Spiritas were shocked.
Hun Que said, "There's a type of people from the other races called Spirit Rune Masters. Spirit Rune Masters have a branch called Battle Rune Masters. They're good at using all kinds of spirit runes to increase their strength in battle. Their fighting style is unpredictable and very difficult to deal with. What this kid used should be a Battle Rune Master's technique. Moreover, those should be divine runes!"
"Divine runes …" The elders of the Spiritas were deep in thought. They had naturally heard of divine runes. Many soul techniques of the Spiritas even had traces of divine runes.
However, this was the first time they had seen such exaggerated divine runes. It wasn't about the power. No matter how strong a Constellation cultivator's technique was, it was nothing to them. However, the speed at which the divine runes were activated … was too unbelievable.
Hundreds of divine runes were activated in a single thought. Was this something a human could do?
"Damn it!" The matron elder sighed. From the looks of it, the first Five Colored God Lotus was going to fall into the hands of this human kid.
Three or Four Colored God Lotus was one thing, but this was Five Colored God Lotus!
The Spiritas who could refine the Five Colored God Lotus were all talented in the Spiritas. Although they might not be able to become a Spiritas, they had more hope than other people.
It had been too long since a new Spiritas was born in the Ancestral Land. With only the support of the older generation, the future was bleak.
"Congratulations, fellow cultivator!"
After the three Spiritas left, Li Shang turned to look at Lu Ye with a slightly complicated expression. Although she knew that Lu Ye was very strong, she didn't expect Lu Ye to still be able to suppress cultivators of the same level in such a battle.
This was something she had never seen before.
"Congratulations should be the one!" Lu Ye looked at Li Shang.
"?" Li Shang didn't understand.
"I've already refined the God Lotus," Lu Ye said with a smile.
Li Shang was stunned for a moment. Then, she looked happy. "Really?"
"Why would I lie to you?" Lu Ye raised her hand as she spoke. Suddenly, a Five Colored God Lotus appeared on her hand.
Normally, Divine Lotuses were in the Divine Sea, but they could be summoned. However, they were only used to nourish the Soul. They had no offensive or defensive abilities, so summoning them was useless.
Seeing the Five Colored God Lotus, Li Shang immediately believed Lu Ye's words. She said in surprise, "Then I'll go refine it."
"I'll protect you!" Lu Ye said.
If Li Shang wasn't here, he wouldn't have let go of this Five Colored God Lotus. After all, refining a Five Colored God Lotus was equivalent to half a day's effort. He could definitely make the Divine Lotuses he already had evolve to six colors.
But since Li Shang was here, there was no harm in letting her try. Over the past few years, Li Shang had helped him a lot. If it weren't for Li Shang's possession, Lu Ye estimated that he wouldn't have been able to kill Yue Yao with his own strength.
Moreover, the ancestors of Immortal Essence City would need Li Shang's care in the future. Yiyi and Hu Po would also stay here.
There was no harm in letting Li Shang become stronger.
Of course, whether Li Shang could successfully refine Lu Ye couldn't be determined. If she couldn't, it wouldn't be too late for him to make a move.
Li Shang looked excited as she approached the Five Colored God Lotus. She felt a little unreal.
Although she also wanted to refine a Five Colored God Lotus, she knew that it would be difficult. Since ancient times, there hadn't been many people who could refine a Five Colored God Lotus. Although a Five Colored God Lotus would appear every time the lotus pond opened, there might not be anyone who could refine it.
She just wanted to give it a try. If it didn't work, she would refine a four-colored one. If it still didn't work, then she would refine a three-colored one. If that still didn't work, then she would refine a single two-colored one …
Lu Ye had never seen a Soul Tribe member refine a Divine Lotus. As she watched, Li Shang, who was standing in front of the Five Colored God Lotus, surged with soul power, enveloping the Divine Lotus.
Soon, the Five Colored God Lotus reacted. Its petals gently opened, like the wings of a butterfly fluttering.
Li Shang's expression was slightly excited. Her soul power surged even more intensely.
In the next instant, the Five Colored God Lotus turned into a five-colored stream of light, imprinted into her body, and disappeared.
Li Shang, who hadn't even begun to use her power, was stunned.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist!" Lu Ye congratulated.
Li Shang hadn't reacted yet. It wasn't until he repeatedly confirmed that the Five Colored God Lotus had really been refined into his body that he revealed an excited smile.
However … refining a Divine Lotus shouldn't be so simple, right? Although it was Li Shang's first time participating in the lotus pond competition, she also knew the difficulty of refining a Five Colored God Lotus. Logically speaking, even if she had the qualifications to refine it, it would take at least an hour. How did she succeed in an instant?
Furthermore …
"Why do I feel that our two Divine Lotuses are a little different?" Li Shang asked.
The Five Colored God Lotus that Lu Ye displayed just now seemed to be a little more resplendent than the one she refined. The color was also a little richer. Although she didn't carefully compare, Li Shang felt that the two Divine Lotuses were quite different.
"No, maybe the colors are different," Lu Ye said casually.
Li Shang didn't ask anymore. Having just refined the Five Colored God Lotus, she was still very excited. She said, "Although I've refined the Divine Lotus, there's still some time before the lotus pond closes. The cultivation environment here is rare. Fellow Daoist, please don't waste it. Why don't you cultivate here together?"
Today, I'll take the child to the hospital again. Because it's out of town, I have to go there early. If everything goes well, I'll be hospitalized tomorrow and have the surgery the day after tomorrow. If I don't do my best, please forgive me.
I hope everything goes well.
