Lu Ye activated his Clear Vision Spirit Pattern to investigate the nodes of Scarlet Blood Valley's Great Formation. Just like before, he began to cooperate with the Formation cultivators of Heaven Expanse Sect.
During this time, the cultivators of the two Sects were arranged by Zhao Li and Song Yin.
Although the guardian of Scarlet Blood Valley's Great Formation had heard of Lu Ye's method of breaking the Great Formation through some channels, he had never seen it with his own eyes.
It was only at this moment that he deeply felt what despair was.
No matter how he activated the Great Formation, it was difficult to stop Lu Ye's progress.
Just as he had heard, in just a few dozen breaths, the Spirit Qi in a certain area of the Great Formation stopped flowing. Following a round of fierce attacks from the two Sects, the Great Formation in that area was completely shattered.
The curses of both sides stopped and turned into attacks of Artifact Manipulation and Spell Techniques. In an instant, multicolored rays of light shuttled back and forth in the air, creating a spectacular scene.
Accompanied by miserable screams, the guardian of Scarlet Blood Valley, who was commanding from the rear, discovered that something was wrong.
The Body Cultivators on his side were dying too quickly.
Body Cultivators were the biggest barrier for their side. If too many of them died, their line of defense would definitely be broken.
After a brief observation, he quickly saw the truth.
It was Lu Yiye of Blue Blood Sect. Almost half of the dead Body Cultivators were killed by him!
Four rays of light from the Imperial Equipment danced and shuttled back and forth under his control. The body cultivators targeted by him were simply unable to resist the might of the Imperial Equipment. One kill, one kill. The body cultivators that the Scarlet Blood Valley had painstakingly nurtured were as weak as paper in front of his sharp attacks.
In just ten breaths of time, the number of Body Cultivators blocking the front line had been reduced by more than half. Without Body Cultivators blocking the front, the casualties of Scarlet Blood Valley's side soared, and as time passed, the casualties on their side also rapidly increased.
On the other hand, although the enemy's Body Cultivators had also suffered casualties, their tight defensive line had always been firm, especially the Body Cultivator in the middle. His vitality was simply outrageous. He had seen with his own eyes that the Body Cultivator's defensive Spirit Artifact had been destroyed and more than ten attacks had landed on his body, but this Body Cultivator didn't seem affected at all.
This guy's physical body was even stronger than ordinary defensive Spirit Artifacts.
The guardian of Scarlet Blood Valley realized the seriousness of the problem and also knew that he had underestimated his opponent this time.
However, it was impossible to escape now. Escaping now would only give the enemy a chance to kill them all.
He hurriedly activated the battlefield imprint and sent out a message.
In the next moment, five figures appeared out of thin air in the Tianji Hall. The five of them did not stop as they dashed out of the Tianji Hall, turning into five streams of light as they charged toward the battlefield.
Among the five people, there were men and women, young people and old people.
They were obviously not Spirit Stream Stage cultivators. Amongst them, there were Cloud River Stage cultivators and True Lake Stage cultivators.
In order to stand up for Lu Ye, Shui Yuan had forced her way into the Spirit Stream Battlefield twice. The Scarlet Blood Valley naturally didn't lack the courage to do so. However, the price of doing so was far too great, and the risk involved was far too great. Thus, under normal circumstances, the cultivators of the Nine Provinces wouldn't do such a thing.
But now that the sect's encampment was in imminent danger, how could the Scarlet Blood Valley care so much?
At this moment, the five of them were only displaying Eighth Order Heaven Grade cultivations because they had broken through to the Cloud River Realm when they were still Eighth Order Heaven Grade cultivators. Now that they had forced their way in, the cultivation they could display was at its peak when they fought in the Spirit Stream Battlefield.
In this regard, they couldn't compare to Shui Yuan.
Shui Yuan had broken through to the Cloud River Realm with a Ninth Order Heaven Grade cultivation, so when she entered the Spirit Stream Battlefield, her cultivation was at the Ninth Order Heaven Grade.
It wasn't that the Scarlet Blood Valley didn't want to send out stronger cultivators, but that they didn't have anyone stronger.
In the Spirit Stream Stage, if one could open three hundred and sixty apertures and break through to the Cloud River Realm with a Ninth Order Heaven Grade cultivation, then reaching the Spirit Sea Realm in the future would be a certainty.
But how could it be so easy to open three hundred and sixty apertures? Even the disciples of First Grade Sects wouldn't dare to say that they could open three hundred and sixty apertures.
Among the Spirit Stream Stage cultivators, less than one in a hundred could break through to the Cloud River Realm with a Ninth Order Heaven Grade cultivation.
The Scarlet Blood Valley was only a fifth-rank sect, and these five people were already the most Spirit Stream Realm cultivators that the Scarlet Blood Valley could bring out.
Lu Ye immediately sensed the pressure of five powerful auras and looked up. When he saw the five streams of light, he immediately shouted, "Be careful!"
Perhaps his shout had attracted the attention of these people, as the old man among the five immediately looked over with a cold murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
With the help of these five people, the Scarlet Blood Valley immediately stabilized the situation. On the contrary, the rhythm of the attacks of the two Sects was disrupted. The originally advantageous situation had turned into a stalemate, and even the casualties had increased greatly.
After all, there were five Eighth Order Heaven Grade cultivators. The power they could display when working together was enough to turn the tide of the battle.
The Scarlet Blood Valley Guardian, who had been worried all this time, breathed a sigh of relief, while Zhao Li and Song Yin were anxious.
A moment later, traces of purple lightning began to linger around the five people. No matter who it was, all of them showed a pained expression. One of the women's body was trembling slightly, and the power of her attacks had weakened significantly.
The five of them knew the consequences of killing people in the Spirit Stream Battlefield and were mentally prepared before entering. However, knowing was one thing, and none of them had done it before.
When they heard that the Palm Seal Master of the Blue Blood Sect had started a massacre in the Spirit Stream Battlefield, they felt that they were not weaker than him. However, when they killed the first Spirit Stream Realm cultivator, they realized that things were not as simple as they thought.
The punishment of the Soul Extinguishing Divine Thunder was not easy to resist. Shui Yuan could resist it because of her special Soul. Even if she killed dozens of people, she could still do it as if nothing had happened.
The five from the Scarlet Blood Valley couldn't do it. They had only killed twenty people in total, but they had already reached the limit of their endurance and couldn't kill any more. They could only resist the attacks of the two Sects.
"You guys block him, I'll go kill Lu Yi Ye!" The old man said through gritted teeth. His figure flickered as he pounced towards Lu Ye. Because of the intense pain in his Soul, his face was distorted.
Lu Ye was their main goal this time. As long as they could kill Lu Ye, even if they lost the Scarlet Blood Valley's encampment, the various Sects of the Myriad Demon Ridge would compensate them with a large amount of resources, enough for the Scarlet Blood Valley to rebuild their encampment.
The old man wielded a long sword and was clearly a Weapon Cultivator. As he pounced through the air, Sword Qi slashed towards Lu Ye.
Lu Ye hurriedly pulled out his Mountain Saber and shattered several of the Sword Qi. However, his body was sent flying by the huge impact.
The old man's killing move instantly arrived. The long sword in his hand was like a snake's tongue as it stabbed towards Lu Ye's heart.
This sword was so fast that Lu Ye almost didn't have time to react. Defensive Spirit Runes formed hastily and barely blocked the attack. However, in the next instant, sword flowers bloomed in his field of vision.
The benefits of having a powerful Soul were displayed at this moment. Although Lu Ye didn't see the enemy's sword move clearly, several vital points on his body felt a stabbing pain. A great sense of danger surged in his heart, and he instinctively activated several defensive Spirit Runes to protect those positions.
As the defensive Spirit Runes shattered one after another, Lu Ye's body was covered in blood, but there was no danger to his life.
The old man's eyes flashed with surprise. He, an Eighth Order Heaven Grade master, had come to kill an ordinary Ninth Order cultivator, yet he had failed to immediately kill him. This was difficult for him to accept.
His figure flickered as he dodged the attacks coming from all directions. The long sword in his hand flickered again as his body merged with the Sword Qi, almost becoming one as he stabbed towards Lu Ye.
In the Spirit Stream Battlefield, although he was only able to display the strength of an Eighth Order Heaven Grade master, he still had the strength of a True Lake Master. This sword strike alone was something that even a master on the Spirit Stream List might not be able to block.
Lu Ye was indeed unable to block it because the speed of this attack was too fast, so fast that it exceeded the limit of his reaction. Even if he activated a defensive spirit rune that was enough to protect most of his body in time, it was still pierced through by the sword.
The long sword pierced through from below his heart and came out through his body. If it had only been half a finger away, this sword strike would have taken his life.
However, at the most critical moment, Lu Ye had taken a deep breath and avoided a fatal blow.
"Brother Yi Ye!" Zhao Li, who had been paying attention to Lu Ye's movements, turned pale with fright. Song Yin, on the other hand, silently rushed over, wanting to help.
However, it was obviously too late.
The old man didn't show any joy after succeeding. As long as his enemy didn't die, he wouldn't relax. Pushing his Spirit Qi madly, he poured it into Lu Ye's body through the long sword in an attempt to destroy his five viscera and six organs.
This move was similar to how Lu Ye had activated his Grand Thorn Spirit Rune after piercing through his enemy. Normally, a piercing wound wouldn't be fatal, but it was more suitable for him to use small tricks that could cause follow-up damage.
Lu Ye felt intense pain as his flesh and blood squirmed around his wounds. The Mountain Blade in his hand almost burst into flames as a fiery red Spirit Qi wrapped around it. As he waved his long sword, a halo of light flashed as he stared at the old man in front of him and slashed down.
The old man frowned and gave up on his original plan, pulling his long sword out of Lu Ye's body and holding it horizontally in front of him.
Clanging sounds rang out, and sparks flew everywhere. A ray of light flashed across the Pan Mountain Saber. It was a double pressure spiritual tattoo that Lu Ye had inlaid with the Dao of Spiritual Tattoo.
The old man's victorious expression turned into one of astonishment because in that instant, the blow from the young man in front of him was as heavy as a thousand catties!
It didn't feel like a blade was chopping down, but more like a small mountain.
Caught off guard, the old man's long sword almost flew out of his hand. As a weapon cultivator, he naturally wouldn't allow such a thing to happen. He hurriedly urged his Spirit Qi to stabilize the weapon in his hand.
Under the immense pressure, he and Lu Ye fell to the ground together, their weapons resisting each other as they stared at each other.
The old man's expression was calm as he coldly looked at Lu Ye. It was undeniable that the young man's performance was outstanding. Even as a True Lake Stage expert, he couldn't find any flaws. However, the difference in strength was still there. Since he wanted to kill Lu Ye, no matter what the young man did, it would be a futile struggle.
Then, he saw a sun explode in his field of vision …
