Although Purple Lake City was huge, half of it was buildings, and the other half was Purple Lake. It was not suitable for sparring, not to mention a fight between Level Eight Heavenly Masters. Any random Heaven Art could engulf the entire formation.
There might be many spies from other sects outside Purple Lake City, so Liu Yi arranged for all the Heavenly Masters who could fight to train and spar near the sea. Although there was only half a month left until the banquet, a sudden attack would more or less have some effect. Everyone was usually very hardworking, but their foundation was too weak compared to the sects.
In the family, only Yao, Beauty Yang, and Liu Yi were Level Eight Heavenly Masters. After some discussion, Liu Yi was not suitable to fight as the Alliance Master. In addition, Liu Yi was only at the mid-stage of Level Eight. It was impossible for her to increase her strength in half a month, so only Yao and Beauty Yang were allowed to fight.
There was no need to talk about Yao's strength, but Beauty Yang was also very strong. She was once on par with the core elders of the sect, and was even stronger. As for the elders of the Ice Fire Alliance, Dong Huashun, Guo Pingxian, and Ceng Ping would fight. These three were the three with the highest strength among the elders. It was enough to prepare five people. There were already thirty-one sects. Even if each sect sent five people to fight in turns, they might not finish fighting in a day.
Above the sea, Dong Huashun, Guo Pingxian, and Ceng Ping were sparring, while Yao and Beauty Yang were sparring in the distance. The relationship between the two girls could no longer be described as sisters. They did not hold back at all.
Beauty Yang and Yao had sparred before. At that time, Beauty Yang was slightly better, but that was a long time ago. With the increase of Yao's strength and attributes, if both sides used their true strength, it would not be an exaggeration to say that Beauty Yang could not resist at all.
At this moment, Yao and Beauty Yang were sparring, but Yao did not use the Supreme Immortal Qi. She only used ordinary Immortal Qi to fight, and it was very restrained. The sparring between the two was more for training each other's skills. In this aspect, both sides were evenly matched.
In the distance, Dong Huashun and the other two who were resting looked at the scene of the two Alliance Master's wives sparring. Their eyes were filled with admiration and envy. To be honest, they were even more envious of Lu An for the Alliance Master to be able to get his hands on such powerful and peerless beauties.
After watching for a while, Dong Huashun took a deep breath, looked at Ceng Ping and Guo Pingxian, and said in a low voice, "We have to work hard as well. This is the first time the Alliance Conference has participated in the banquet, and it will definitely be recorded in the history books. We can't lose face for the Alliance Conference."
"That's right." Guo Pingxian nodded.
Ceng Ping stood beside Dong Huashun. Not long ago, the two of them had confirmed that they were a couple, but they hadn't reached the stage of marriage yet. Both of them were straightforward people. If they really wanted to get married, there was no need to prepare for the wedding. They could just nod at each other. However, Ceng Ping wanted to wait a little longer.
"You have to work even harder." Ceng Ping looked at Dong Huashun and said seriously, "This banquet is different for you. After all, you have the bloodline of the Thousand Pagoda Divine Sect. If you win, it will be fine, but if you lose, we will be cursed even more miserably. The Thousand Pagoda Divine Sect will curse us, and so will the other sects. After all, the Thousand Pagoda Divine Sect's strength is above average among the sects. They will think that our Alliance Conference doesn't know how to nurture people. "
When she said that, Dong Huashun and Guo Pingxian both took a deep breath. That was indeed the case. It was already a very serious matter for a sect member to appear in another Alliance Conference. Most sects were very strict about their bloodline and didn't allow their bloodline to be leaked. Even if the Thousand Pagoda Divine Sect didn't care about it for Lu An's sake, the consequences would be even more serious if they lost face for the sect.
"Come! Let's spar again! "Dong Huashun clenched his fists and said to Guo Pingxian.
Soon, Dong Huashun's side started to spar again. In the distance, Beauty Yao and Beauty Yang stopped. To be honest, both of them knew that even the strongest Dong Huashun in the Alliance Conference was much weaker than the sect elders. After all, Dong Huashun was only a late-stage class 8. Compared to the outcome of this banquet, whether it was them or Liu Yi, they hoped that it wouldn't affect the mood of the elders.
The two girls looked at the ocean in the distance. The ocean was endless, but they didn't know where Lu An was.
They felt as if their hearts had been dug out, but they were very calm. They only hoped that Lu An would return soon.

Eight days later, in the underwater castle.
In the pitch-black space, the awakened Lu An once again climbed up from the pool of blood and shook his head vigorously. He had been trapped here for more than a month. In the past half a month, he had been beaten up six times. He only had four immortal pills left.
That's right, the interval between the black mist figure's attacks was getting shorter and shorter. Now, the interval was less than two days. If it wasn't for the immortal pills, Lu An felt that the blood in his body wouldn't be enough.
In the huge space, countless bloody scars crisscrossed the ground and imprinted on the walls. Large puddles of dried blood were a ghastly sight. The entire room was filled with the thick stench of blood. The ground was basically completely covered in blood.
Fortunately, since Lu An reminded the black mist figure to pay attention to the strength of its attacks, the black mist figure still controlled its strength. At least, it didn't attack his head. There were only four immortal pills left. According to the agreement, after the immortal pills were used up, he had to be sent away. According to the time, it would take at most seven or eight days.
In the past half a month, he had completely mastered the Blood Spirit Art and was very familiar with it. However, he didn't have so much blood after all, so he hadn't practiced it yet. After successfully cultivating the Blood Spirit Art, the black mist figure taught him a new death technique called "Blood Sacrifice."
The so-called "Blood Sacrifice" was a death technique that was purely based on strength. It had nothing to do with the divine sense. The principle of the Blood Sacrifice was also very simple. It was to forcefully expel the blood in one's body and completely release the death energy inside. After all, as long as it was blood in the bloodline, because of the body's own protection, it couldn't completely release the power. Even if it was exhausted, it would still retain a certain amount of power to maintain the minimum operating power. Only by expelling the blood outside could it be completely released. With one's own blood as a guide, the blood outside could directly absorb the death energy of the surrounding heaven and earth, forming an unprecedented power. It was equivalent to the most extreme method of eruption.
The Blood Sacrifice was an extreme compression of power. The magnitude of the power was determined by the amount of blood released. One could completely choose between a single attack and an area of effect attack. One just had to control the way the blood was used.
During this period of time, Lu An had been cultivating seriously. However, he didn't feel much psychological pressure. After all, the time outside was calculated according to the time. This Blood Sacrifice didn't look simple. It seemed to be very troublesome to cultivate to the highest level. It was comparable to the Resurrection Annihilation that he had learned. He might not be able to learn it in the remaining seven days.
However, compared to the Separation Art, Absolute God Art, Half-Spirit Art, and Blood Spirit Art that he had learned before, Lu An was more interested in the Blood Sacrifice. Lu An didn't lack powerful attack methods. However, the Blood Sacrifice gave him an additional life-saving and attack method in extreme situations. The Blood Sacrifice could be used at the peak of one's strength. It could also be used when one was exhausted to release the last bit of power left in the blood. In a sense, it was similar to the restriction of activating the Realm of the Demon Gods. It could increase one's combat ability from the extreme aspect.
Of course, one would die when one's blood was exhausted to a certain extent.
However, there was one thing that needed to be mentioned. It was difficult to use the Blood Sacrifice with the help of external forces. Even if it was used, the effect wouldn't be good. For example, when one took the elixir to restore blood, the blood was indeed produced from the internal organs and bones. It was Lu An's blood. However, the problem was that he borrowed the power of Immortal Qi to catalyze the formation of the internal organs. The catalysis resulted in the blood being pure blood. The power of the Fate Wheel couldn't fill it up so quickly. Of course, the Immortal Qi in the elixir could quickly fill up the blood. Then, through the magical transformation method of Lu An's body, it could be quickly transformed into the other three forces. However, it still needed some time.
This was also the reason why Lu An was looking for the existence of "spirits."
After waking up, Lu An didn't rest. Instead, he sat cross-legged and cultivated as he did the previous few times. There were only four elixirs left before leaving this place. He couldn't help but miss the outside world.
He missed his wife. He missed his family.
He didn't know if they were okay. He also didn't know if they had done anything stupid. He was really worried. He even wanted to finish the four elixirs as soon as possible.
No matter what, nothing must happen … wait for me to come back!
