Before this battle, Zhu Pang had made an extremely wrong decision, which was to focus all of his power on defense.
In fact, if he had performed normally, he might not have been in such an awkward situation. However, completely abandoning his offensive methods in exchange for defense did not bring him much safety.
This was also because of Lu Ye's fierce reputation. Even if he had the Hidden Dragon Armor and his strength had increased greatly, he still did not have the confidence to defeat Lu Ye.
He had indeed made his defense impenetrable, but when a flaw appeared in this impenetrable defense, he no longer had any room to fight back.
At the same time that Hu Po's huge tiger claw slammed down, Lu Ye also launched an attack from the side. The sharp blade was wrapped in killing intent, causing Zhu Pang's body to turn cold.
He focused all of his attention on Lu Ye and Hu Po, using all of his power to defend against the attacks from the man and the tiger.
However, at that moment, a violent surge of spiritual power came from the side of his body.
A huge impact swept over, rushing through the gap in Zhu Pang's defense and fiercely slamming into his body. In that instant, Zhu Pang felt as if his entire body was about to be torn apart. If not for his strong physique as a Body Cultivator, this attack would have been enough to take his life.
Even so, the sharp attack tore through his Qi, blood, and spiritual power defense, leaving behind bloody wounds on his body. He could even faintly see his squirming organs!
He quickly turned his head and looked in the direction of the attack, his eyes narrowing.
In his field of vision, he saw the reflection of a young girl. The spiritual power around her was boiling, condensing into a violent technique!
The attack that had hit him just now had come from this young girl!
How could …
What was going on?
Zhu Pang was stunned.
The challenges of the Spirit Stream List had always been one-on-one. Lu Yiye had a pet beast, and bringing it in was not a big deal. This was permitted by Tianji. After all, there was a school of Beast Taming in this world. Cultivators used their Monster Beasts to fight. If they were not allowed to bring their pet beasts, then the Beast Taming School's cultivators would not have much fighting power.
But what was going on with this young girl?
She couldn't be a pet beast, right?
This was completely illogical.
The first thought that popped into Zhu Pang's mind was that Lu Yiye had used some unimaginable method to bypass Tianji's surveillance and brought a group of Dharma cultivators to beat him up!
However, he soon felt that such a matter was impossible. The Heavenly Mystery Sect was high and mighty, and had always been fair and just. This was especially true for the Spirit Stream List challenges, which had never had any problems since ancient times. There was no reason for such a huge oversight.
But soon, he no longer had to think about these puzzling questions, because under Yiyi's barrage of spells, Zhu Pang's burly body was like a canoe drifting in the middle of a stormy sea, swaying unsteadily.
Lu Ye and Hu Po were also attacking from the side.
Along with the shattering of another shield spirit tool, a great sense of crisis enveloped him, and the aura of death assaulted his face.
Hu Po howled madly, and the Soul Absorbing Impact caused Zhu Pang's face to contort in pain. Blood flowed from his nostrils, and there was a vague thought in his mind that kept urging him to admit defeat. However, he couldn't concentrate, and the words that were at the tip of his tongue couldn't leave his mouth.
Even more spells landed on his burly body. A sharp saber pierced through the gap in his defenses, pierced through his chin, and came out from the top of his head!
The chaotic fluctuations of spiritual energy abruptly calmed down at this moment. Yiyi dispersed the technique she had condensed in her hand, and Hu Po also retreated to the side. He crouched down slightly, looking like he could explode with an attack at any time.
P >
Drip …
Drip …
Blood dripped onto the ground.
Zhu Pang lowered his eyes and looked at the young man who was close to him. His eyes were filled with nostalgia and unwillingness to accept his current situation.
Lu Ye pulled out his blade. Blood spurted out, and the burly figure fell to his knees with a thud. Then, he slowly prostrated himself on the ground, and the ground beneath his corpse was quickly dyed red with blood …
His life force dissipated.
Yiyi quickly went forward and collected the spoils of war. She put the other party's damaged armor into her storage pouch, then tossed the storage pouch to Lu Ye. Only then did she flash back into Hu Po's body.
At this time, Lu Ye had already taken out many bandages and healing pills from his storage pouch. He also took out a bundle, wrapped it up, and tied it to Hu Po's back.
Accepting Zhu Pang's challenge was just the beginning. If his predictions were correct, he would probably have to kill his way out!
Under the howling of the magnetic field, spiritual energy was completely sealed, and there was no way to open his storage pouch. Naturally, these healing items had to be prepared first.
Not only that, Lu Ye also specially found a few sabers that were similar in shape to the Mountain Saber from the many spoils of war.
When everything was ready, Lu Ye stuffed a few healing pills into his mouth, then turned around and rode on Hu Po's back. Only then did he allow Tianji to teleport him out of the arena.
When he returned, it was still that boundless plain.
Just as his vision recovered, a strong gust of wind attacked from the side, ruthlessly slamming into Hu Po. Even with Hu Po's strength, he staggered a little from the impact.
An angry tiger roar rang out, and a tiger claw slammed down in the direction of the attack. Accompanied by a mournful roar, the sharp tiger claw scraped off a layer of flesh.
At the same time, a fierce attack attacked Lu Ye. Almost instinctively, Lu Ye slashed back with his saber.
With a clang, the spirit weapon that was slashing towards Lu Ye was sent flying. There were even cries of surprise from cultivators.
It was only then that Lu Ye saw clearly who had attacked him and Hu Po. It was a Myriad Demons Ridge cultivator riding a rhinoceros demon beast.
The one that had crashed into Hu Po was the demon beast, and the one attacking Lu Ye was the cultivator on its back.
However, both the demon beast and the cultivator on its back had suffered a great loss. When the two figures passed each other, the cultivator even fell directly from the rhinoceros's back.
Lu Ye raised the long saber in his hand and was about to end the cultivator's life when a few huge figures rushed over from all directions. They were all cultivators riding different demon beasts.
Although he had killed Zhu Pang at an extremely fast speed in the battle arena, there were still some cultivators from Myriad Demons Ridge who had rushed to his original position and attacked him as soon as he appeared.
Fortunately, there weren't many of them.
Without needing Lu Ye's instructions, Hu Po had already leaped high into the air, directly jumping out of the encirclement of the demon beasts. In mid-air, Lu Ye bent down and slashed with his saber.
A cultivator stabbed a spear at Hu Po's waist.
With a crisp clang, Hu Po landed a hundred feet away and sprinted away. The cultivators behind him hurriedly turned their mounts around and chased after him.
For a moment, on the plain, a snow-white figure dashed forward. The pursuers behind him were unwilling to let him go, and they were shouting loudly.
"Lu Yiye is here!"
"Quickly kill Lu Yiye!"
"Don't let him escape!"
Looking down from the sky, more cultivators riding demon beasts were converging. Although there weren't many of them, there were still more than thirty of them.
Lu Ye was only glad that he had killed Zhu Pang quickly enough. If he had come out of the battle arena a dozen breaths later, he would have been surrounded by the people from Myriad Demons Ridge.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! An attack came from above.
This attack caught Lu Ye and Hu Po somewhat unprepared. Even though Lu Ye's reaction was extremely fast and blocked some of the attacks with his long saber, some attacks still landed on him and Hu Po.
However, a comical scene occurred. Although those attacks hit him and Hu Po, the damage they caused was almost negligible.
Lu Ye looked up and saw more than ten figures of birds in the sky. There were also some Myriad Demons Ridge cultivators standing on the backs of the birds. At this moment, they were all holding longbows and continuously shooting arrows downward!
However, how powerful could arrows without the support of spirit power be?
Regardless of whether it was Lu Ye or Hu Po, they could block the attacks with their physical bodies alone. Those arrows would at most cause some scratches to Lu Ye. As for Hu Po, there wouldn't even be a scratch left.
"How can Lu Yiye's physique be so strong?"
The Myriad Demons Ridge cultivators were all shocked when they saw that Lu Ye's arrows were unable to do anything to him. They originally thought that with their flying mounts, they would definitely be able to kill Lu Ye. However, it now seemed that they had been too naive.
Lu Ye's physique was a little too strong.
Strictly speaking, the changes to his physique had slowly begun after he tempered his body with the Dragon Spring. The Dragon Spring itself wasn't very effective, but Lu Ye had brought out a scale armor from the Dragon Spring. The scale armor was rich in blood Qi and had the effect of strengthening his physique.
Lu Ye used the scale armor to temper his physique and strengthen his blood Qi and blood. Now, the blood Qi in the scale armor had been completely consumed.
Moreover, every time he returned to the Jade Blood Sect, the medicinal cuisine cooked by Shui Yuan had the effect of strengthening his physique.
One had to know that the Blood Red Trout in the Moon Lake had been used to temper the bodies of the Jade Blood Sect's disciples. Every official disciple only had a share of one, and Lu Ye had eaten a lot of them back in the sect.
In addition, ever since he cultivated the Gluttonous Feast, his appetite was much larger than the average person's. He ate a lot, and all of it was converted into his blood Qi and blood. Naturally, his physique had slowly become stronger.
However, he had never cultivated his body using the methods of a body cultivator, so his physique wasn't considered burly.
There was also the baptism bestowed upon him by the heavens …
With all of these accumulations, Lu Ye's physique was naturally far inferior to that of a talented fellow like Giant Armor. However, he wasn't the slightest bit inferior to ordinary body cultivators. In fact, he was even stronger.
As for Hu Po … it went without saying. Hu Po had devoured the most blood Qi in the scale armor. If the scale armor's blood Qi was divided into ten parts, Hu Po would take fifty percent, Lu Ye would take thirty to forty percent, and Giant Armor would take twenty percent!
Moreover, Hu Po was a monster beast and had learned the cultivation method of absorbing the essence of the sun and moon from Giant Armor.
In terms of the strength of his physique, Hu Po was comparable to two or three Lu Ye's. When he circulated his monster qi, even if a cultivator attacked him with a spirit weapon, they wouldn't necessarily be able to hurt him.
The benefits of having thick skin and thick flesh were evident. If an ordinary cultivator was hit by an arrow like this, they would definitely be injured. Once the injuries accumulated, they wouldn't be far from death.
However, neither Lu Ye nor Hu Po were affected by the arrow. At first, Lu Ye used his long saber to block the attack from above, but when he realized that the attack was no different from scratching an itch, he ignored it.
