The blood waves surged, and Lionheart fell into the sea of blood, disappearing without a trace! From the looks of it, it was as if he had thrown himself into the sea of blood.
"I've finally caught him!" Ma Shangsi gritted his teeth, clearly very irritated. In the past, his Blood Sea Technique had always been successful, but this time, if it weren't for Lu Ye's Talent Tree clone, it would have been difficult to capture Lionheart.
This made him realize one thing — some Yue Yao's strength was truly unreasonable. He himself was also a late-stage Yue Yao, but if he were to face Lionheart alone, he definitely wouldn't be a match for him.
The sea of blood began to churn violently. Lionheart, who had fallen into it, knew that the situation was bad. How could he just sit there and wait for death? He immediately urged his strength to stir up the sea of blood.
For a moment, Ma Shangsi felt like he couldn't suppress him. Fortunately, Lu Ye had already charged to Lionheart's side under his guidance and slashed repeatedly with his long saber.
In the sea of blood, Lu Ye's expression was cold and fierce. He had to admit that Lionheart was indeed the strongest Yue Yao he had ever encountered. None of the Yue Yao he had encountered in the past could compare to him.
Lionheart's strength was not only reflected in his combat ability, but also in his inconceivable physique!
Yao cultivators rarely used transcendent artifacts, and neither did the Blood Tribe. However, the Blood Tribe couldn't use transcendent artifacts because of the corrosive nature of their blood arts, which greatly conflicted with transcendent artifacts. However, Yao cultivators were different. The biggest reason why Yao cultivators didn't use transcendent artifacts was because they were confident in their physique. Many Yao cultivators, after taking human form, would often temper a part of their body so that they could unleash power comparable to transcendent artifacts or even transcendent artifacts.
Moreover, every Yao cultivator was naturally proficient in their own clan's demonic arts. It could be said that Yao cultivators were basically dual cultivators of body and magic.
For example, when Lu Ye had killed that Red Elephant Yue Yao under Zi Xuan's sneak attack, she had swung her long trunk before she died. The power of that blow was not inferior to that of a transcendent artifact.
Lionheart didn't have any body parts that were specially tempered. He had refined his entire body into an existence comparable to a transcendent artifact. His long lifespan and countless years of immersion in Yue Yao's later stages gave him plenty of time to do this.
His body had already been tempered to the extreme!
Every punch and kick was a magical treasure level attack. No matter who it was, they wouldn't have a good ending.
Therefore, even though Lu Ye's Mountain Ascension Blade was incomparably sharp and reinforced by the Divine Edge Spirit Inscriptions, it couldn't cause too much damage to Lionheart's body. In fact, it could only break through his skin.
Lu Ye had originally planned to use his Precious Blood Doppelgängers to kill Lionheart. However, Lionheart's physique was so strong that he had to give up on this plan. Since he only had one Pan Shan Saber, it would be useless to have more Precious Blood Doppelgängers. He even took back his Talent Tree Doppelgänger.
Lu Ye couldn't help but recall the time when he fought against Hikari, who was a realm higher than him. When his own attack wasn't enough to break through the enemy's defense, his successful slash often didn't play much of a role.
Unless he used the Great Pinwheel Mystic Technique and slashed at the same spot countless times.
But how could Lionheart give Lu Ye such a chance?
Therefore, all Lu Ye could do was suppress Lionheart, but there was no way he could achieve any real results.
However, things were different now. The powerful Purple Jade Island Lord had fallen into the Blood Sea. As long as Ma Shangsi could stabilize the situation, Lionheart would die sooner or later!
As the Blood Sea rolled, Lionheart roared. Every time this happened, the Blood Sea would roll more violently. This kind of invisible sound attack was impossible for Ma Shangsi to avoid.
Lu Ye's figure shuttled back and forth in the Blood Sea. Every time he slashed at Lionheart's body, the sound of metal clashing against metal could be heard.
Lionheart was like a beast trapped in a cage. He had no room to display his unreasonable strength because he couldn't even grasp the enemy's whereabouts.
Under the repeated slashes, a real wound finally appeared on Lionheart's body.
Ma Shangsi had been waiting for this moment. He immediately became excited, like a shark that had smelled fish, and immediately activated the Blood Tracing Technique.
Blood kept flowing out of the small wound.
At first, there was only one wound, but as time passed, more and more wounds appeared. Lionheart's huge body became bloody.
He sensed that something was wrong.
With his powerful physique, he was confident that no one on Yue Yao's level could do anything to him. But today, he was shocked to discover that there really was someone in this world who could break through his powerful body.
If that was all, it wouldn't be a big deal. Lu Ye had done this by repeatedly slashing at the same spot. With his physique, such wounds could heal in the blink of an eye.
But in reality, he could clearly sense a strange power lingering around his wounds. The wounds that should have healed quickly showed no signs of improvement.
Not only that, but there was also a mysterious power coming from the Blood Sea, guiding his blood to quickly flow out of his wounds.
The secret killing technique that Lu Ye and his servant had developed together was beginning to show results!
The special nature of the Mountain Plate Saber and the Blood Tracing Technique were a match made in heaven.
The battle in the Blood Sea continued, but because of the Blood Sea's concealment, the spectating cultivators couldn't see what was happening inside. Disappointed, they could only look toward Purple Jade Island.
In this short period of time, the situation on Purple Jade Island had changed greatly.
The Black Tortoise Formation led by Giant Armor was still maintained, protecting the door. But now, the pressure they had to endure was clearly not as great. This was because more and more Three World Island cultivators were walking out of the door and quickly forming a formation. They occupied the four corners and resisted the oncoming attacks.
Therefore, even though Purple Jade Island had the advantage in numbers, they couldn't achieve any results. In terms of strategy, one side was attacking, while the other side was defending. In comparison, the Three World Island, as the defending side, had a great advantage.
Moreover, the three late-stage Yue Yao cultivators from the Three World Island were slaughtering as they pleased. No one could stop them. In the sky, the Purple Jade Island cultivators fell like dumplings into a pot.
The spectating cultivators couldn't help but hold their breaths. This was because they realized one thing. Regardless of their positions, likes and dislikes, they were witnessing a historic moment!
This was a battle that would go down in the annals of the Wanxiang Sea!
For so many years, ever since the top forces moved into the Wanxiang Sea and occupied the top-grade Spiritual Islands, there had never been a case of a top-grade Spiritual Island being breached and having a change of ownership. Of course, the Peerless Island didn't count. Although it was a top-grade Spiritual Island, it wasn't occupied by the top forces.
Today, however, they were about to witness it with their own eyes.
The top forces of the Wanxiang Sea had occupied the top-grade Spiritual Islands for tens of thousands of years. The situation was finally about to be broken.
And the ones who did this were cultivators from a top-grade Spiritual Island.
The Purple Jade Island cultivators' strategy of attacking the door had completely failed. This was because no more Three World Island cultivators had descended from the door. All the cultivators from the Three World Island had gathered on the battlefield. The existence of the door no longer mattered.
The cultivators from the Three World Island who had descended used the broken formation foundation hall as the center and quickly built a defense against the enemy cultivators who were attacking from all directions.
Giant Armor and the others retreated with blood all over their bodies. During the battle just now, the Black Tortoise Formation they formed had turned into a trustworthy defensive shield for their companions at the most crucial moment. However, even such a Black Tortoise Formation was broken by the Purple Jade cultivators in the end.
The seven body cultivators all vomited blood as they retreated. Medical cultivators were already waiting for them and quickly took over their treatment.
If Meng Jie hadn't summoned his conch and formed a defense when the Black Tortoise Formation was broken, there would have been casualties on the Three World Island's side.
On the Three World Island's side, the strongest defense formed by the Lunar Mansions wasn't the Black Tortoise Formation, but Meng Jie's conch. That thing was the true treasure. Previously, it had played a huge role in the battle against Bai Yue. Today, it still played a huge role.
Luan Xiaoe, Yan Miao, and He Baichuan, the three late-stage Moon Jade cultivators, shuttled back and forth among the enemy cultivators as if there was no one around. While they killed the enemy, they didn't forget to provide timely support to their Lunar Mansions. Wherever the pressure was great, they would go and kill for a while to relieve the pressure on their defense.
As time passed, more and more Purple Jade Island Yao cultivators died in battle. Around the defensive perimeter formed by the Three World Island's cultivators, there were countless broken bodies and broken limbs. Fresh blood gathered on the ground and formed a small river that flowed in all directions.
Countless spectating cultivators gasped in amazement. Up until now, even if they were at a clear disadvantage, even if they didn't have any Moon Jade cultivators to help them, the Purple Jade Island Yao cultivators still maintained their unparalleled fighting spirit. Not a single Yao cultivator fled or retreated. Many times, even if they knew that they would die, they still charged forward without hesitation.
This tragic scene could be seen almost everywhere on the battlefield. The spectating cultivators couldn't bear to see it, but at the same time, they were filled with admiration.
"As expected of the Purple Jade Island Yao cultivators. This tenacity and courage to fight without fear of death. Cultivators from ordinary factions can't compare at all. With so many cultivators in the realm, why should they worry about not being strong in the future?"
"I'm afraid Purple Jade is finished. Now, let's see if Lionheart can escape."
"Even if Lionheart escapes, it won't change the outcome. Purple Jade's defeat is a foregone conclusion!"
"Fellow Daoists, have you noticed? Purple Jade has suffered heavy losses, but the Three World Island … doesn't seem to have a single casualty!"
How could the others not notice this? Because the Three World Island's cultivators had always been on the defensive, and the three late-stage Moon Jade cultivators had reduced the pressure on them. Thus, up until now, although many had been injured, not a single one had died.
"In the battle against Baiyue, the Three World Island achieved a terrifying result of zero casualties. Now that they're facing Purple Jade, they can't do the same, right?"
If that was really the case, it would be too terrifying. It would be fine if they were able to do this against Baiyue, but this was Purple Jade, a top-tier spiritual island occupied by a top-tier faction. It was on a completely different level from Baiyue.
However, judging from the current situation, as long as the Three World Island fought steadily, it wouldn't be difficult for them to do this.
The cultivators could almost foresee one thing. Today's battle would be talked about enthusiastically for years to come. Back when the Three World Island attacked Baiyue, the cultivators of the Myriad Domain had discussed it for several years. This time, it would definitely not be any worse.
Almost everyone felt that the situation wouldn't change much. The only variable now was whether or not Lionheart could escape!
However, at this moment, a cold shout suddenly rang out from within Purple Jade Island. "Cultivators of the Three World Island, heed my command. Follow me and kill the enemy!"
When the order was given, the spectating cultivators were still stunned.
The cultivators of the Three World Island, who had been on the defensive, quickly moved.
In the blink of an eye, they abandoned their impenetrable defensive formation. Instead, the two thousand cultivators split into three groups like three long dragons. Luan Xiaoe, Yan Miao, and He Baichuan, the three late-stage Moon Jade cultivators, took the initiative to come forward and take the lead.
Faint dragon roars could be heard. The three long dragons formed by the cultivators of the Three World Island were like true flood dragons emerging from the sea. They charged in three different directions!
