In mid-air, Lu Ye lowered his body and channeled his spiritual power to stabilize his body. Without any pause, he pounced on Yu Daiwei again like a blood-colored lightning bolt falling from the sky.
His long saber danced, shattering many spells that were coming at him.
Yu Daiwei quickly retreated!
After suffering a loss, she had already judged Lu Ye's terrifying strength. How could she dare to stand there and take a beating? He hadn't expected Lu Ye to be so strong. Coupled with Lu Ye's sudden burst of strength, he was caught off guard.
The two figures quickly swept through the air. As they chased and fled, spells and saber light surged. It was extremely lively. The Zergs attracted by the fluctuations of spiritual power were often swept away by the powerful aftershocks before they could get close, exploding into a bloody mist.
The distance between them couldn't be closed anymore.
The difference in strength was obvious. Lu Ye had activated the blood-stained spiritual pattern, but there was a limit to the increase in his strength. It was impossible to say that the blood-stained spiritual pattern could increase his strength infinitely. This was expected.
However, he was fighting to his heart's content. Although he had only slashed Yu Daiwei a few times since the beginning of the battle, and there was no substantial effect, he had achieved his goal and had a clear understanding of his current strength.
Of course, he still had some tricks up his sleeve.
In the current situation, the awkward thing was that he couldn't close the distance between him and Yu Daiwei. However, if he activated the Blood River, he still had a chance.
In particular, the Blood River Technique integrated with the blood essence was more powerful than the ordinary Blood River. Once he pulled Yu Daiwei into the Blood River, he would have the home field advantage.
When he suddenly attacked and got close to Yu Daiwei, it was the best opportunity to use the Blood River Technique.
He still had the Dragon Emperor!
However, Yu Daiwei was not an ordinary Divine Sea Realm cultivator. Lu Ye wasn't sure if he could kill her with all his trump cards!
Moreover, Lu Ye didn't want to kill her. The reason why he waited here was to use her as a whetstone.
Although Yu Daiwei had captured him before, she didn't do anything to him. Tai Shan still had a favor to ask of him. There was no unresolvable blood feud between them.
Zhang Song came just to capture him, not to kill him. In the end, he was forced to commit suicide.
Through this battle, Lu Ye realized his own shortcomings.
They lacked a method to quickly rush to the enemy's side. For a weapon cultivator, if they couldn't rush to the enemy's side, they wouldn't be able to pose a fatal threat to the enemy.
This was something that every armament cultivator needed to consider.
The Blood Escape Art could be considered as a direction, but if one didn't use blood essence to activate it, it wouldn't be fast enough and wouldn't be able to create an element of surprise. Thus, it wouldn't be effective in one strike. If one used blood essence, there would be a limit to the number of times it could be used.
Just as Lu Ye was deep in thought, Yu Daiwei suddenly shouted, "Stop! I'm not fighting anymore!"
Lu Ye immediately came to a halt. His Qi was boiling, and he found it difficult to calm down.
Yu Daiwei put some distance between them before stopping. She looked Lu Ye up and down, as if she was trying to get to know him all over again. There was even an unconvinced expression on her face.
There was nothing she could do about it. Fighting Lu Ye with an Eighth Order Divine Sea cultivation was something she was too embarrassed to tell others.
If they continued fighting, her vigorous Spirit Qi reserves would undoubtedly give her a greater advantage, but there was no need for that. She wasn't here to kill Lu Ye, she was here to capture him.
But now, it seemed that she couldn't complete this task. She didn't know how this little brat in front of her cultivated, but at every realm, he had the ability to kill enemies above his own realm. Once he reached the Divine Sea realm, it was even more exaggerated.
With the strength he had just shown, an ordinary Fourth or Fifth Order Divine Sea cultivator would likely die if they faced him.
One would need to be at least a Sixth Order Divine Sea cultivator to be able to compete with him.
In other words, she couldn't treat Lu Ye as a First Order Divine Sea cultivator, but as a Sixth Order.
With her strength, there was no way she could capture a Sixth Order cultivator alive. Instead of continuing to entangle with him and provoking the Insect Race, or even other Divine Sea cultivators from Grand Heaven Alliance, giving up and making peace was the only option.
Fortunately, this little brat in front of her was sensible. When she said they wouldn't fight, he immediately stopped. Otherwise, in such a situation, she really would have had no choice but to run away.
After all, she couldn't see the light of day, unlike Lu Ye, who could walk openly and fight with enemies.
"Not bad, little brat!" Yu Daiwei grit her teeth. Looking at her appearance, it seemed like she couldn't wait to bite Lu Ye.
Lu Ye didn't say anything and just slowly withdrew his saber. The aura on his body didn't weaken at all, and the blood-stained Spirit Tattoo was still working.
"Are you a mute? You didn't even let out a fart! "Yu Daiwei was a little angry, mainly because she had lost a lot of face this time and couldn't complete the task.
"Tai Shan is looking for me?" Lu Ye asked.
Yu Daiwei's pupils shrank, "Where did you hear this name?"
Last time, when the High Lord and Lu Ye were chatting, she wasn't far away, so she was sure that the High Lord didn't reveal his name to him. It was even more impossible for her to mention this to Lu Ye, so how did Lu Ye know the name Tai Shan?
It didn't make sense at all.
Not getting an answer, Yu Daiwei frowned, "The High Lord wants to invite you over. He has something important to discuss with you!"
Lu Ye said casually, "Your way of inviting people is quite unique."
If one's strength wasn't enough, it wouldn't be an invitation, but a capture, just like last time. He had to show enough strength to be qualified to be invited.
"Tell Tai Shan that I'll go look for him, but not now. Also, before I take the initiative to look for you, if he dares to pester me again, be careful that I don't reveal his trivial matters!"
Eldest Senior Brother had instructions for Tai Shan.
As someone who had once worked for Tai Shan, Eldest Senior Brother knew what Tai Shan was doing. Lu Ye had talked to Eldest Senior Brother about this when they were at the Holy Island.
If Eldest Senior Brother was still in Nine States, Tai Shan would naturally follow his lead.
However, people's hearts were fickle, and now that things had changed with the passage of time, even Eldest Senior Brother couldn't be sure what kind of temperament Tai Shan had now.
He had told Lu Ye to contact Tai Shan when the opportunity was right. Some things had to be discussed openly, and if the plan was right, Tai Shan might be able to become a helper.
He needed time, but not now.
At the very least, Lu Ye had to grow to the point where he could escape from Tai Shan's hands before he was qualified to talk to him. Otherwise, if he went over rashly, he would be entrusting his fate in the hands of others, which was too unwise.
Then, Lu Ye turned around and soared into the sky.
Yu Daiwei's expression was uncertain. Suddenly, she remembered something and shouted, "Where did Dao Shisan go?"
"He's dead!" A voice came from afar.
Yu Daiwei gritted her teeth and stomped her feet.
The Lord didn't have many Dao soldiers under his command. They couldn't be refined however they wanted. Dao Shisan was considered one of the best among all the Dao soldiers. It would be a pity to lose him just like that.
However, Dao Shisan was nowhere to be found. If Lu Ye said that he was dead, then it was very likely that he was dead.
Although the battle just now was short, it had caused quite a commotion. If there were any Divine Sea Realm cultivators nearby, they would definitely be attracted over.
After flying for some distance, she found a secluded place and reported all kinds of contact with Lu Ye to the Lord.
Soon, she received a message from the Lord. "Wait!"
Yu Daiwei naturally obeyed.
Lu Ye continued to move forward. After making sure that Yu Daiwei didn't chase after him, he dispersed the blood-stained spiritual tattoos.
Although his strength had been greatly enhanced by the spiritual tattoos, it also consumed a lot of his body. Therefore, it wasn't suitable for a long time.
He had lost a drop of essence blood in this battle. Although essence blood was extremely precious to ordinary members of the Blood Clan, it was nothing to Lu Ye. As long as he had time, he could refine another drop to replenish it.
After half a day, a towering city appeared in front of him.
He had arrived at Grand Sky City!
After more than two years, Lu Ye finally saw this familiar big city again. He felt very close to it.
He didn't stop and plunged into the city.
The number of cultivators in Grand Sky City had decreased significantly. Lu Ye couldn't even detect too many Divine Sea Realm cultivators with his Divine Telekinesis. This had never happened before.
"Rebirth: The Great Age of Wave Fighting"
The current situation was undoubtedly related to the current insect disaster.
A large number of cultivators were scattered all over the Military State. They were either guarding the gathering places of the human race, guarding the cracks in the ground, or rushing to provide assistance. As a result, there were fewer cultivators in Grand Sky City than before.
Of course, the necessary defensive forces still needed to be left behind. After all, this was the center of Grand Sky Alliance in the Military State.
Lu Ye first went to the Sect Master's small courtyard. The Sect Master wasn't there, so the small courtyard was empty.
This was expected.
Then, he rushed to the Law Department. There weren't even any cultivators on duty at the door. He went straight in.
At first glance, he saw a familiar face sitting behind a table with a sad face. His hair was messy and his beard was unshaven. It seemed that he hadn't rested for many days. In front of him was a pile of jade slips waiting to be dealt with.
"Senior Brother Cheng?" Lu Ye was surprised.
The person sitting behind the table was actually Cheng Xiu.
He was also Gan Wudang's confidant. When Lu Ye was still in the Blue Flame Mountain Pass, he was the one who handed over the Exploding Fire Spirit Stones to Lu Ye every time.
Back then, he was a True Lake Realm Ninth Order cultivator. Now, he was a Divine Sea Realm cultivator.
In two years, Lu Ye wasn't the only one who had grown.
Hearing the voice, Cheng Xiu raised his head in a daze and revealed a look of surprise.
Lu Ye had been missing for more than two years. Although it was certain that he was still alive, no one knew where he was. Before the insect plague broke out, the Sect Master of Blue Blood Sect, Tang Yi Feng, used many connections to inquire about Lu Ye's whereabouts. In the end, he found nothing. After the insect plague broke out, he didn't have any extra energy to track down Lu Ye's whereabouts.
So, he didn't expect that a person who had been missing for more than two years would suddenly appear in front of him.
"Lu Yiye, you're back?" Cheng Xiu smiled.
Lu Ye also smiled, "Senior Brother Cheng, did you rise to the top and change the world? What about our Sect Master Qian? Did he fail? "
Cheng Xiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Junior Brother, don't talk nonsense. Sect Master Qian went out for some business, so he left the trivial matters here to me."
Lu Ye understood.
He also knew that a master like Gan Wudang wouldn't have an accident easily. He was just curious about why Cheng Xiu was sitting here handling official business. Now, it seemed that the situation in the Military State was more serious than he thought. Otherwise, Gan Wudang wouldn't have left the Law Department so easily.
