Undefeatable!
This was the white-haired old man's most sincere feeling.
Before today, he would never have imagined that Yue Yao, who had just broken through, would possess such terrifying strength. Logically speaking, even if he was affected by the environment and his strength was greatly suppressed, he shouldn't have been so weak against Yue Yao, who had just broken through.
However, in the previous exchange, he had been suppressed. Three of his treasures had been destroyed in an instant. One of them was an offensive treasure, while the other two were defensive treasures.
The offensive treasure was naturally the Five Yang Pearl, which was a Six Star treasure.
Although the broken pendant was only a Four Star treasure, it was a defensive treasure and had extremely powerful defensive abilities.
Furthermore … the close-fitting robe he was wearing!
It was a Five Star robe, and it was incomparably tough. It also provided him with extraordinary defensive abilities.
However, it had still been sliced open by his opponent's saber. If it weren't for the robe's protection, he would have been sliced in half by the saber!
Blood flowed from the gaping wound on the old man's chest. The pain caused his chaotic thoughts to clear up slightly.
He suddenly understood. No matter how strong Yue Yao's foundation was, she couldn't possibly beat him to the point where he couldn't even retaliate. It was the saber in his hand!
That saber was simply too sharp. It could easily slice through a Four Star or Five Star defensive treasure. The quality of that saber was definitely ridiculously high!
At the very least, it was a Seven Star treasure.
Just which realm did this brat come from? How could he be so wealthy?
The destruction of three treasures undoubtedly had a great impact on a cultivator like him. However, he still had other treasures that he could use. As long as he didn't die, his battle prowess wouldn't be reduced too much.
Right now, he only wanted to escape as quickly as possible. As long as he could fly a suitable distance away, he would be able to use Yue Yao's mid-stage strength. Then, he would naturally have the ability to fight his opponent.
He couldn't give up on the World King Flower!
A saber that was at least a seven-star magical treasure was also of great value.
As long as he could kill that brat, he would be able to recoup all his losses. A beautiful future awaited him.
On the other side, Lu Ye didn't immediately chase after the old man. Instead, he looked down at the Mountain Pan Saber in his hand.
This was because he suddenly discovered another characteristic of the Mountain Pan Saber.
It seemed to be especially destructive to defensive magical equipment!
Although the five sun-like treasures were of high quality, they were offensive treasures, so they weren't particularly sturdy. With Yue Yao's early-stage power, it was naturally difficult for her to block his attacks.
But logically speaking, even if it was a defensive magic treasure of a lower quality, under the same slash, it shouldn't have been so easy for him to break through.
But in reality, the old man's two defensive treasures had been easily sliced apart by him. Of course, this had something to do with the quality of the old man's defensive treasures, but more importantly, it was due to the Mountain Pan Blade's own characteristics.
This was not just the benefit of sharpness.
This was interesting. In a battle between cultivators, the most difficult thing to deal with was each other's defensive techniques. However, if the Mountain Plate Saber had the ability to counter such techniques, then it would be much easier for him to deal with his enemies in the future.
Without thinking too much about it, Zhang Xuan raised his head and gazed ahead.
In the blink of an eye, the old man who had activated Blood Escape was already thousands of miles away. In such an environment and with such speed, it was clear that the old man was not holding back at all.
Lu Ye couldn't even make out the other party's figure in the distorted space.
However …
With a shake of his hand, the Mountain Plate Saber hummed faintly.
Tens of thousands of kilometers away, the fleeing old man suddenly cried out in alarm. In that instant, he felt some mysterious power wriggling around the wound on his chest, tearing at his wound.
In an instant, his injuries became more serious, and the intense pain caused him to stagger a little.
Only now did he realize, to his horror, that his wound showed no signs of healing.
This was clearly not normal. With his foundation as a late-stage Moon Jade, he should have been able to easily recover from such a wound. All he needed to do was consume some of his blood essence.
However, he had been so focused on fleeing that he hadn't noticed this. Only now did he realize it.
Not only had his wound not healed, but it had also worsened under the influence of that strange power. Even though he tried his best to suppress it, he could only slow it down slightly.
What was this? The old man was overwhelmed with shock.
Of course, he didn't know that this was a characteristic of the Mountain Plate Saber. The strange power of Fang was like an invisible ant that clung to the wound. Not only could it impede the enemy's recovery, but Lu Ye could even use the Mountain Plate Saber to control it and continue tearing at the wound inflicted by the Mountain Plate Saber.
In a situation where the difference in strength between the two parties wasn't too great, this kind of control was extremely fatal. The old man's already dire situation worsened.
Although the old man didn't know what was going on, he knew that he had to get as far away from Lu Ye as possible. So, he pushed himself even harder!
However, even though he was fast, Lu Ye was even faster.
In just a few moments, the old man sensed the aura behind him closing in.
His eyes were filled with malevolence. He couldn't understand how things had turned out this way. Everything had been planned so well. It was already extremely strange that a late-stage Lunar Constellation Realm cultivator had ascended to Moon Jade in the Yin Yang Great Millstone. Now, he, a late-stage Moon Jade, was no match for the other party.
"This old man will fight you to the death!" Sensing the difference in their speeds, the old man knew that he couldn't escape. With a resolute expression, he immediately turned to face Lu Ye, prepared to fight to the death.
However, in the next instant, his expression suddenly froze.
Because what entered his eyes wasn't Lu Ye's figure, but a sea of blood-red light.
The blood-red light suddenly expanded, transforming into a sea of blood.
'What's wrong with that young man? How can a Weapon Cultivator execute such an exquisite blood technique? ' The old man couldn't understand.
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, the vast sea of blood had already enveloped his body, enveloping a large area.
Lu Ye activated the sea of blood just to be safe. He didn't know what other tricks the white-haired old man had up his sleeves. In the end, this was the first time he was facing a late-stage Moon Jade cultivator alone. Even if he already had an absolute advantage, what if the other party had some strange tricks up his sleeve?
In a battle between cultivators, it was common for one to fail miserably at an easy task. Lu Ye didn't want such a thing to happen to him.
With the sea of blood enveloping his surroundings, even if the other party really had some strange tricks up his sleeve, as long as he was careful enough, the other party could only close their eyes and wait for death.
However, when he activated the sea of blood this time, Lu Ye could clearly sense that the power of the sea of blood was much greater than before. This change was undoubtedly brought about by the advancement of Moon Jade.
Moreover, Lu Ye also had a feeling that if he infused his precious blood into the sea of blood, the sea of blood's power would be substantially increased.
This was something he hadn't noticed before. Ever since he condensed his own precious blood, he hadn't activated the Sea of Blood Technique.
Within the sea of blood, Lu Ye moved forward with his saber. Although the blood-red light filled his surroundings, Lu Ye could still clearly sense everything within the sea of blood.
The white-haired old man, who was wrapped in the sea of blood, didn't have this ability. He was already severely injured, and now he was trapped in the sea of blood. He knew that he was powerless to reverse the situation. He couldn't help but roar at the sky, full of unwillingness.
He didn't beg for mercy because he knew that it was useless. It was just like how he wouldn't let Lu Ye off if he had the upper hand.
Winner takes all, loser takes all!
Almost at the same time that Lu Ye activated the Sea of Blood Technique, hundreds of thousands of miles away, a figure who was sitting cross-legged and tempering his body suddenly opened his eyes. He glanced in Lu Ye's direction, a look of surprise on his face.
After pondering for a moment, his figure flickered and flew towards Lu Ye.
Judging from the magic power fluctuations coming from this figure, his cultivation was at the middle Moon Jade Realm. But considering the suppressive effect of this position on a cultivator's strength, this person's true cultivation was clearly not just at the middle Moon Jade Realm. He was absolutely at the late Moon Jade Realm!
The reason he wasn't suppressed to the early Moon Jade Realm like the white-haired old man was clearly because his foundation was much deeper. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to this position to temper his body.
Hundreds of thousands of miles were nothing to Moon Jade Realm cultivators. A moment later, he arrived at the battlefield.
The closer he got, the more awe-inspiring his expression became. This was because he could feel an aura that made his heart palpitate …
This aura was so strong that he hadn't even felt it when he was facing sunlight.
Looking at the vast sea of blood in front of him and sensing the profound mysteries emanating from it, the figure couldn't help but gulp. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes and experienced it for himself, he would have found it hard to believe that such a thing could exist in this world.
At this time, within the sea of blood, Lu Ye had already killed the white-haired old man.
The white-haired old man was trapped in the sea of blood and was being corroded by the power of Fang. He was also at the early Moon Jade Realm, so how could he be a match for Lu Ye?
Lu Ye was worried that the white-haired old man would use some kind of strange technique, but it didn't happen. The process of killing the white-haired old man was as simple as killing a little chick.
After collecting the storage rings on the white-haired old man's hands, Lu Ye turned his head and looked in a certain direction.
Through the sea of blood, he seemed to be able to see a figure not far away!
A middle Moon Jade Realm cultivator … No, a cultivator whose cultivation had been suppressed to the middle Moon Jade Realm. He looked much stronger than the white-haired old man he had just killed.
Was he attracted by the commotion here?
That didn't make sense. At Moon Jade's level of cultivation, who wouldn't be aware that this matter didn't concern them? This world wasn't a place where one could casually watch a show. Who knew when one would lose their life just by watching a show?
So why was the white-haired old man here?
Lu Ye wasn't afraid of a cultivator whose cultivation had been suppressed to the middle Moon Jade Realm. If the white-haired old man really wanted to cause trouble, he could use this opportunity to test his current strength.
He immediately asked bluntly, "What are you looking at?"
If you keep looking, I'll dig your eyeballs out!
Unexpectedly, the white-haired old man cupped his fists respectfully and transmitted his voice, "Blood Demon Continent's Ma Shang Si greets the Holy Sovereign!"
