As soon as Yu Yaorao's voice fell, the ground shook violently, and a shockwave rolled out. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Lu Ye's figure soar into the sky and crash straight into the huge Monster Cloud.
"This …" Yu Yaorao was dumbfounded. She had clearly warned Lu Ye to be careful of the opponent's Monster Qi, but Lu Ye obviously didn't take it to heart. She didn't know whether to call him confident or arrogant.
But soon, Yu Yaorao realized that this wasn't arrogance, because a fierce battle soon broke out inside the Monster Cloud. At first, the roars of the Tian Lang Race were full of energy and power, but in just three breaths, they turned into cries of surprise and then screams of pain.
A few breaths later, the huge demonic cloud dispersed, and a figure stood in mid-air, holding a saber in one hand and a huge wolf head in the other. The wolf head's eyes were wide open, and its eyes were filled with horror, as if it had died with everlasting regret.
Drip, drip, drip, blood flowed from the wound, and although the sound was soft, it struck Yu Yaorao's heart like a heavy hammer.
Lu Ye flew back and casually threw the wolf head to the side with a calm expression, as if he had just gone out to pick a wild flower and not a wolf head.
Yu Yaorao's mind was shaken. No matter how many times she saw this, she still found it hard to adapt to such a straightforward and efficient way of killing the enemy. Originally, she still had a little bit of confidence in her own strength. When she was traveling together with Zhao Yunliu and Ding You, she had also repeatedly proved her strength. But it was only at this moment that she discovered that in front of a true monstrous genius, the so-called monstrous genius of this domain like her seemed to be no different from an ordinary Divine Sea Realm expert.
Zhao Yunliu came from a top-level realm, the Conqueror Star Realm, and even among this group of geniuses who had entered the Alpha-Origin Realm, he was extremely strong, but compared with Junior Brother Lu in front of her, the gap was still not small.
Yu Yaorao gradually realized a problem. This Junior Brother Lu, who was only an Eighth Order Divine Sea Realm cultivator, might become the most dazzling star in the entire Alpha-Origin Realm. Anyone who underestimated him because of his cultivation would inevitably pay a heavy price.
She had to speed up her recovery. Junior Brother Lu didn't leave right now because he was taking care of her injuries, but she couldn't let him stay here forever. She had to recover as soon as possible and leave, lest she become a burden to him.
As she thought about this, Yu Yaorao swallowed another precious healing pill and started to refine it silently.
However, she soon discovered that things seemed to have become a little troublesome because less than two hours after Lu Ye killed the cultivator from the Heavenly Wolf Clan, someone else came to the door. After a short and fierce confrontation, the newcomer was unsurprisingly cut down by Junior Martial Brother Lu.
After that, every once in a while, someone would rush over from different directions and fight with Junior Brother Lu, but no matter what race they were from or what realm they came from, all of them were either dead or injured without exception.
Those with fast reactions would be able to escape after exchanging a few blows, but those with slow reactions would have no chance of survival once the battle dragged on for more than ten breaths.
Next to the place where the two of them were resting, bloody corpses kept appearing one after another. In less than two days, there were already seven or eight corpses lying here.
Yu Yaorao didn't know whether Junior Brother Lu did it intentionally or unintentionally. In any case, the corpses of the cultivators he killed were neatly placed on the side. Anyone who came here could see them clearly.
This was undoubtedly a form of deterrence, as well as a warning.
After two days of recuperation, Yu Yaorao's injuries had recovered a lot. According to her original plan, it was time for her to leave Lu Ye and act alone, but the development of the situation in the past two days made it impossible for her to leave.
Because in her perception, she could clearly perceive that there were auras lurking in all directions.
In other words, the place where she and Lu Ye were located had been surrounded! It was just that the seven or eight corpses on the ground were powerful enough to deter and shock them, so for the time being, no one dared to act rashly, lest they followed in the footsteps of those people.
Why was it like this? Yu Yaorao couldn't figure it out, but she knew that she must have overlooked something. Otherwise, it would be impossible for these monstrous cultivators who were scattered all over the place to gather here. Those people who were killed by Lu Ye before were all looking for him by name.
Yu Yaorao soon realized what she had overlooked, because the second revelation of the Reincarnation Tree had arrived.
A large piece of information appeared in her mind out of thin air, including the names of twenty people. These twenty names included the names of the top ten and the last ten people at the current stage.
The one ranked first was Lu Yiye from the Nine Heavens Realm, and the number 216 behind his name made her dizzy.
216! Just looking at this number didn't mean anything, but it should be said that this number represented the harvest of a cultivator in the Alpha Origin stage. Every increase in this number represented the accumulation of blood of a monstrous genius from a particular realm.
Up until now, Yu Yaorao had only obtained a mere four. Compared to the two hundred and sixteen she had obtained, it was simply not even a fraction.
This … how did he do it?
Yu Yaorao stared blankly at Lu Ye. She really couldn't understand how such a taciturn young man, who didn't have any particularly overbearing imposing manner, could kill so many people!
She finally understood why these people had come here. The revelation of the Reincarnation Tree must have already arrived once, and it was unreasonable to obtain more than 200 harvests. In addition, the Nine Heavens Realm where Junior Brother Lu came from wasn't well-known, so he would inevitably attract the attention of others.
Those who were confident in their strength and wanted to use him as a stepping stone would naturally come looking for him. There were also those who were driven by curiosity and came to watch the show. As a result, this place naturally became the center of the gathering of cultivators.
"Junior Brother Lu …" Yu Yaorao couldn't help but call out softly. There were many things she wanted to ask, but she didn't know where to start. She couldn't really ask Lu Ye about the more than 200 harvests, right?
Lu Ye could roughly guess what she was thinking, but he did not explain. Since the Reincarnation Tree had considered those insectoid guards as his spoils, then he deserved it. There was still one more insectoid nest. If the others were not convinced, they could go and try to get rid of it.
"Senior Sister Yu, you'd better stay here."
If it was before, Yu Yaorao would have left. Even if she hadn't recovered from her injuries, she still had some strength, so she wouldn't be powerless in the face of danger. But in the current situation, it was no longer suitable for her to leave. Now there were many cultivators hiding in all directions, and they all saw that Yu Yaorao was with him. If Yu Yaorao really left at this time, she would be targeted easily. In her current state, she couldn't resist too many attacks.
Lu Ye could roughly guess the mentality of the cultivators hiding in all directions.
Perhaps not all of them had come to find trouble with him. Perhaps many of them had come to watch the fun. After all, his harvest was too amazing, and he was afraid that everyone would want to see whether he had three heads and six arms.
However, just because they were here to watch the show, it did not mean that they would not add insult to injury. Now that the situation was temporarily stable, they had learned a lesson from the previous incident. The seven or eight bloody corpses on the ground were undoubtedly a great visual impact and deterrence. Anyone who wanted to find trouble with them would have to consider whether they were stronger than the dead ones.
The current situation could be considered to have maintained a strange balance. Those who wanted to test their strength didn't dare to act rashly, while those who were watching the fun were waiting for others to make trouble. Therefore, the overall situation could be considered to be calm.
However, this peace was bound to be broken. Lu Ye did not believe that he would be able to peacefully wait until the end of the Alpha-Origin stage. Without mentioning the others, among the top few ranked monsters, there was bound to be someone who desired to take first place. These monsters were true experts, and if they wanted to take first place, they would have to pull Lu Ye down.
Lu Ye was waiting, waiting for a true opponent with enough strength. Only then could he solve the problem once and for all. Otherwise, the people hiding in the surroundings with ulterior motives wouldn't easily disperse.
While waiting, the ground suddenly trembled. The initial tremors weren't obvious, but as time passed, the tremors grew clearer and clearer, as if a behemoth was approaching step by step.
Lu Ye raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the sound. Sure enough, he saw a burly figure unhurriedly rushing over.
The burly figure was somewhat abnormal. Even if Lu Ye was wearing the Dragon Throne, he might not be as tall as him. The newcomer's upper body was bare, and his lower body was only bound by a simple animal skin. His skin glowed with a bronze luster, and his flesh was clearly defined. At first glance, he didn't seem fleshy, but instead looked like he was piled up from stone.
His body seemed extremely heavy, and every step he took left a deep imprint on the ground, causing the ground to tremble.
Yu Yaorao's voice sounded in his ears, and it seemed a little dignified. "It's the Stone Tribe, it should be Baoshi!"
Lu Ye nodded slightly, recognizing the newcomer's identity. They hadn't met before, but in the revelation of the Reincarnation Tree, Baoshi from the Five Color Domain was ranked seventh.
Lu Ye didn't know whether the Five Color Domain was a top-level domain, but to be able to rank seventh in this battle of the Spirit Sea, Baoshi wasn't comparable to the cultivators he had met before. In fact, Lu Ye did feel some pressure from the other party's momentum.
Lu Ye realized that he seemed to have made a mistake.
He thought that the most likely to come looking for him was either Gu Yulou from the Yellow Dragon Realm or You Ping from the Northern Nether Ghost Tribe. If these two had the intention of becoming number one, they would have to find a way to kill him. As for the others … even if they came to find trouble with him, it wouldn't make much sense, because even if they were lucky enough to kill him, their ranking would only rise by one, and there would be no substantial benefits.
He had been waiting for the two people ranked behind him, but instead of these two, Baoshi, who was ranked seventh, came …
