He had to do something, or he would definitely die.
Huo Liaoyuan's strong desire to live made him break through his limits. The remaining spirit energy in his body boiled, and his mind was focused like never before.
"Pa!" Huo Liaoyuan suddenly clasped his hands together and opened his fingers. A dot of light suddenly appeared in his palms and quickly expanded, releasing a bright light.
Violent and chaotic spirit energy fluctuations were released.
Huo Liaoyuan seemed to be hugging a small sun between his hands. Traces of spirit energy could be seen flowing on the small sun.
At this moment, Lu Ye was only ten feet away from Huo Liaoyuan!
Huo Liaoyuan's actions alerted him. He had never underestimated his opponent, but he did not stop running because of this.
He could cross ten feet in one breath. At that time, no matter how powerful Huo Liaoyuan's spell was, he would be able to kill him with a single slash.
Huo Liaoyuan's spirit energy was dim at this moment. It was obvious that he was like a lamp that had run out of oil. He poured all of his remaining spirit energy into the small sun in front of him.
At this moment, Huo Liaoyuan suddenly pushed his hands horizontally, and the small sun in his palms quickly swept towards Lu Ye.
As it rushed over, the spirit energy flowing on the surface of the small sun surged faster and faster, peeling off layer by layer like a blooming flower.
As the flaming petals bloomed, a terrifying aura instantly filled the entire deathmatch arena.
In the blink of an eye, the small sun turned into a huge flaming lotus.
Lu Ye had already dodged in advance, but he did not expect such a change. By the time he realized it, he was already wrapped in the flaming lotus.
The flaming lotus bloomed silently. It was not as powerful as Huo Liaoyuan's Exploding Burial, nor was it as grand as Meteor Shower. However, the power it displayed was more terrifying than any of the previous two spells.
It was a terrifyingly high temperature that could melt everything.
This was Huo Liaoyuan's other trump card, a trump card that he had not fully grasped!
Normally, when he used this spell, there was a 50% chance of failure. Therefore, Huo Liaoyuan never dared to use this spell when facing an enemy, lest he hurt himself instead of the enemy. This time, if he had not been forced into a corner, he would not have dared to take the risk.
Fortunately, luck was on his side. Although there was only a 50% chance of success, he still managed to use it. Perhaps it was the effect of extreme concentration brought about by the immense pressure.
His face was as pale as paper as he quietly watched the blooming Fire Lotus. Seeing Lu Ye's figure completely engulfed, he truly breathed a sigh of relief.
This time … Lu Yiye wouldn't be able to survive, right?
Just as this thought popped up in his mind, his pupils suddenly shrank and his eyes trembled violently.
Right in front of them, a figure slowly walked out from the blooming fire lotus. His expression was relaxed, and his movements were leisurely. It was as if he wasn't stepping into the vortex of death, but his own backyard. His expression was calm and without the slightest fluctuation.
Lu Ye didn't know what Fire Prairie's spell was, but judging from Fire Prairie's performance and his own senses, the spell was indeed terrifying. However, under the protection of the Talent Tree, he was able to isolate himself from the flames.
Comparatively speaking, the damage caused by the Fire Lotus to Lu Ye was not as great as the Prairie Fire Explosion Burial.
At the very least, the impact of the Burning Prairie Bursting Burial had injured him quite badly. The fire lotus that had silently bloomed in front of him hadn't even burned off a single strand of his hair.
"Ha!" Fire Prairie let out an involuntary exclamation. He couldn't help but take a few steps back, his face full of fear.
It was another nightmarish scene!
First, it was the Prairie Fire Explosion Burial. Now, it was the Fire Lotus. What did Lu Yiye do? Why was he able to withstand two of his trump cards and not die?
Was he dreaming or what?
However, the weakness and pain in his body constantly reminded Fire Prairie that this wasn't a dream.
Step by step, Lu Ye slowly moved to within thirty feet of Fire Prairie. The huge fire lotus behind him slowly dissipated. The distorted space from the high temperature also seemed to be gently smoothed out by an invisible hand.
Their eyes met. Fire Prairie's dry lips moved as if he wanted to say something. However, in the end, he didn't say anything. He only roared angrily and charged towards Lu Ye.
There wasn't a drop of spiritual energy left in his body. As a spell cultivator, without spiritual energy, he didn't even have the ability to use spells.
However, he didn't admit defeat, nor did he beg for mercy.
This was the deathmatch arena. Only one person could survive.
Lu Ye didn't move. With a twist of his wrist, the blade flashed.
He gently swung the Mountain Plate Saber and returned it to its sheath.
There was a dull thud behind him. Blood flowed out and dyed the floor of the deathmatch arena red.
In the spiritual land, the wolf pack and the cultivators of the Holy Eaves Spiritual Land were separated by a distance of a hundred feet. This distance was within the cultivators' attack range. However, the cultivators of the Holy Eaves Spiritual Land didn't attack the wolf pack.
They were facing off against the wolf pack because they were waiting for Fire Prairie.
According to the rules of the deathmatch arena, both sides would fight to the death. When one side died, the other side would also be sent back to their original position.
Previously, Fire Prairie had activated the deathmatch arena's power in the Return to Heaven Spiritual Land and lured Lu Ye into the arena. Therefore, he would appear in the Return to Heaven Spiritual Land.
The cultivators of the Holy Eaves Spiritual Land had to ensure that they could receive Fire Prairie the moment he appeared.
They didn't attack, so the wolf pack naturally wouldn't ask for trouble …
On the side, Li Baxian's face was so gloomy that it was about to drip blood. He constantly checked Lu Ye's battlefield imprint to confirm whether he was alive or not.
When Lu Ye was lured into the deathmatch arena, Li Baxian almost went crazy. He really didn't expect Fire Prairie to have such a rare treasure.
His Little Junior Brother was only a Fifth-Order cultivator. How big was the difference in cultivation between Fire Prairie's Ninth Order?
Although his Little Junior Brother's foundation was strong and he was good at killing enemies above his realm, there was always a limit to everything. Li Baxian didn't think that Lu Ye was Fire Prairie's opponent.
If Lu Ye had Hu Po's help to activate his Beast Transformation Secret Technique, Li Baxian would have some confidence in him. However, Hu Po had fallen into a deep sleep and Lu Ye couldn't cooperate with him at all.
In this battle, his Little Junior Brother was doomed.
Li Baxian hated that he couldn't take his place … but even he didn't have the confidence to win against Fire Prairie.
The atmosphere in the entire Return to Heaven Spiritual Land was extremely stifling.
Time passed. A cup of tea, a stick of incense …
Li Baxian's expression became strange.
In his imagination, his Little Junior Brother would only be able to last a hundred breaths against Fire Prairie. However, a stick of incense had already passed and his Little Junior Brother was still safe and sound.
Li Baxian suddenly realized that he might have underestimated his Little Junior Brother. Or maybe Hu Po had suddenly awakened? If that was the case, then as long as his Little Junior Brother could activate his Beast Transformation Secret Technique, it would be hard to say who would die in this battle.
As time continued to pass, Li Baxian became more and more certain that Hu Po had awakened at this critical moment. It was even possible that his Little Junior Brother had awakened him!
His original anxiety and uneasiness were swept away. Li Baxian quietly waited for Lu Ye's return. He believed that his Little Junior Brother could defeat Fire Prairie as long as he could activate his Beast Transformation Secret Technique!
On the opposite side, the cultivators of Holy Eaves Spiritual Land looked very relaxed. In their opinion, Fire Prairie's cultivation was four minor realms higher than Lu Yiye's, so how could he lose?
The longer the battle dragged on, the more likely it was that their Senior Brother Huo was toying with Lu Yiye. At this moment, Lu Yiye must be suffering a fate worse than death.
What they needed to do was very simple. They just needed to hurry over when Fire Prairie returned.
"What is Fire Prairie doing?" Somewhere in the crowd, Xia Liang softly muttered. Although it was a pity that he couldn't personally kill Lu Ye, since Fire Prairie had said that they were willing to give him twenty percent of the reward, they would definitely fulfill their promise. However, this guy's efficiency was too slow. He had been in there for so long, yet he still hadn't come out. Didn't he know that a long delay would only bring more trouble?
"Let's wait a little longer. Maybe he will come out soon." Tan Sheng advised.
Xia Liang nodded slightly and raised his eyes to look ahead. He said in a low voice, "Brother Tan, I need you to lend me a hand."
"Please speak, Brother Xia."
Xia Liang said, "I want to kill Li Baxian!"
His initial goal was to kill Li Baxian. Yan Xing had died in Li Baxian's hands, so he had to avenge Yan Xing. When he targeted Lu Ye in the Hunting Ground, his biggest goal was to lure Li Baxian out. In the end, he implicated the Wild Blade Sect and caused them to pay a large amount of resources.
This was also the cause of his enmity with Lu Ye.
Although there were many twists and turns in the process, he still hadn't forgotten his original goal.
In comparison, he wanted to kill Li Baxian more.
Now that Lu Yi Ye was destined to die in the hands of Fire Prairie, he only had one goal left.
Tan Sheng naturally knew Xia Liang's obsession with Li Baxian, so he nodded and said, "I will cooperate with Brother Xia when the time comes."
Xia Liang said, "Many thanks. If this matter succeeds, if this Xia needs help in the future, don't hesitate to call me."
Tan Sheng's eyes lit up. Although his strength wasn't much worse than Xia Liang's, there was still a gap between their Sects. The Wild Blade Sect was First Grade, while the New Moon Sect he was in was Third Grade. Getting such a promise from Xia Liang wouldn't be a bad thing in the future.
Sometimes, things like favors were very precious.
"Brother Xia, you are too polite. I … I'm coming out!" Tan Sheng suddenly whispered.
At the same time, everyone noticed something strange.
Because a dot of light suddenly bloomed in mid-air, and then the light revealed the shadow of the Death Arena. A white light shot out from the Death Arena and landed in a certain position.
The space in that position suddenly distorted, and then a figure appeared out of thin air!
The cultivators of the Holy Eaves Spiritual Land who were ready to rush over to help seemed to have been hit by a Lightning Talisman. They all froze in place, their eyes trembling and filled with disbelief.
In the crowd, Tan Sheng's eyelids twitched wildly, and Xia Liang exclaimed, "How is this possible?"
It was as if he had seen something extremely inconceivable. (To be continued)
