When Lu Ye and Shi Guanggang fought for a while, the latter was slightly stronger. However, Lu Ye could activate all kinds of spirit inscriptions during the battle, especially the defensive spirit inscriptions, which helped him block a few fatal threats.
That was why the two sides could fight so fiercely.
But as time passed, the blood-stained spirit tattoos gradually took effect, and Lu Ye's strength increased bit by bit, slowly surpassing Shi Guang.
The blood-stained spirit tattoos continued to take effect, and Lu Ye's strength continued to increase. At this point, Shi Guang was at a disadvantage every time they fought.
Shi Guang was furious.
Although swallowing a Qi Explosion Pill could increase a cultivator's strength for a short time, it had very strong aftereffects. Moreover, when the Qi Explosion Pill took effect, the cultivator's mind would also be affected, making them more prone to anger.
Under normal circumstances, Shi Guang should have noticed the growing gap in strength between him and Lu Ye, but now he was completely blinded by anger. There was only one thought in his mind, and that was to kill this opponent in front of him!
Climbing up from the ground, Shi Guang turned his head and spat out a mouthful of blood. He narrowed his swollen eyes and looked at Lu Ye, who was rushing towards him. He raised the spear in his hand slightly and assumed an extremely strange posture.
The next moment, all his spirit energy poured into the spear like a flood.
Lu Ye, who was rushing forward, felt all the hair on his body stand on end. A strong sense of danger grew in his heart, and he immediately understood that Shi Guang was about to use some powerful secret technique!
After a brief consideration, Lu Ye did not retreat. He also urged his spirit energy to pour into the Mountain Pan Saber, and the long saber, which was already wrapped in flames, burned completely.
* Boom … *
The eruption of spirit energy from both sides caused the space in the entire battlefield to distort, and countless cyclones of various sizes swam around.
Hu Po was forced to the edge of the battlefield by the violent power. His small body was pressed against the ground, and he did not move.
The two figures rushed at each other at an extremely fast speed.
Shi Guang pulled out his spear and shouted, "Prairie Fire!"
A spear shadow appeared in Lu Ye's field of vision, but the spear shadow was like a prairie fire, quickly spreading out. In an instant, Lu Ye's field of vision was filled with countless spear shadows.
He didn't care. Instead, he used all his strength to slash down with his burning saber.
The spear shadows that filled the sky were shattered into nothingness. The Pan Mountain Blade felt as if it had cut through flesh. At the same time, Lu Ye felt a chill in his chest.
The tide of spiritual energy slowly subsided, and the two people in the field were still in a deadlock.
As far as the eye could see, Lu Ye's Pan Shan Saber had struck Shi Guang's shoulder blade, almost decapitating him. Meanwhile, Shi Guang's spear had pierced through Lu Ye's chest and exited from his back.
Tick tock, tick tock …
Fresh blood dripped down, making a clear sound.
The two of them stared at each other with bloodshot eyes, and then simultaneously raised their legs to kick each other.
With a loud bang, both of them were knocked off balance by the recoil and staggered backwards. Lu Ye's chest was bleeding profusely, while Shi Guang's neck was also spurting blood like a fountain.
Ding …
Lu Ye's long saber stabbed into the ground, but Shi Guang couldn't hold on any longer. With a plop, he fell to the ground, his aura weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The time limit of the Qi Eruption Pill was up.
The powerful recoil caused his expression to contort, and an indescribable pain swept through his body. At this moment, he no longer had the strength to continue fighting.
Lu Ye gasped for breath, barely managing to stand up, and walked step by step towards Shi Guang.
Shi Guang's swollen eyes were fixed on the sky above the battlefield, his thoughts unknown.
It wasn't until he heard Lu Ye's movements that his lips moved, about to speak.
"Roar!" Hu Po roared.
However, this didn't stop Shi Guang. Since he already knew Hu Po's ability, how could Shi Guang not have taken precautions before entering?
Under the impact of Hu Po's howl, Shi Guang's body was suddenly enveloped by an invisible barrier, isolating him from the impact of the howl.
"I admit defeat!" Shi Guang spat out these two words, his entire body completely relaxed, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.
Shi Guang's silhouette vanished without a trace.
Lu Ye stopped in his tracks.
Yiyi revealed herself and hurriedly supported him. Looking at the wound on Lu Ye's chest, her face was filled with lingering fear. If that spear had been slightly off target, Lu Ye would have died.
In fact, Shi Guang's spear had indeed been aimed at Lu Ye's heart, but Lu Ye had avoided it at the critical moment.
After a short while, Lu Ye was lying on the bed in the wooden hut. Hua Ci was sitting on the edge of the bed, her hands surging with pure Wood-type spiritual energy to treat his injuries. Before Hua Ci could finish treating him, Lu Ye had already fallen into a deep sleep.
It was undeniable that the battle with Shi Guang was the most satisfying battle he had had since challenging the Spirit Stream List. The anger that had accumulated in his heart due to Ghost Shadow and the others had been completely vented.
Although his opponent's methods weren't too honorable, as he had taken the Qi Eruption Pill in advance, they were still enemies. Naturally, he would do anything to win. Who cared about honorable or not?
Lu Ye didn't want to think about anything else. He just wanted to have a good sleep.
While he was sleeping, the cultivators of the two camps on the Spirit Stream Battlefield had completely different attitudes.
The change in the Spirit Stream List was immediately noticed by the cultivators. When the first and third positions were exchanged, the cultivators of the Grand Heaven Alliance were all overjoyed. Their spirits were lifted, and they felt honored. On the other hand, the cultivators of the Myriad Devil Ridge were deathly silent. Their hearts were filled with gloom.
The thing they were most worried about had finally happened!
Lu Yiye of the Jade Blood Sect had defeated Shi Guang with his Heaven Eight cultivation base and reached the Spirit Stream List List!
Such a feat had broken all the records of the Nine Continents' cultivation world over the years.
Before this, there had never been a precedent of a Heaven Eight cultivator occupying the Spirit Stream List List List List. Take Li Baxian for example. He had been in the Spirit Stream Stage for more than ten years, but had only occupied the top ten. Later, after his battle with Yan Xing and revealing his true strength, he had only reached third place …
Although the Spirit Stream List's value had decreased greatly after the three malignant names had disappeared, the first place was still the first place.
Among the hundred people on the Spirit Stream List, only a Heaven Eight cultivator was at the top, while the rest were all Heaven Nine cultivators!
This was a scene that was destined to be recorded in the annals of history.
Furthermore, when Lu Yiye had first entered the Spirit Stream List, he had been ranked 33rd with his Heaven Seven cultivation base …
This was also something that had never happened before. Apart from him, no one had ever entered the Spirit Stream List with a Heaven Seven cultivation base, let alone being ranked so high.
Cultivation base aside, the speed at which he had climbed the list was astonishing.
Since he had started to focus on the list, less than half a month had passed. During this time, he had spent five days competing with Bai Lan and the other cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge who had challenged him.
In other words, he had only spent about ten days on the list!
In ten days, he had been invincible all the way to the first place of the Spirit Stream List. This was simply shocking.
The cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge felt bitter. Was the era of being dominated by one person about to come again?
Previously, when this guy had been in the Inner Circle, he had caused the people of the Myriad Devil Ridge to panic. However, at that time, he had only relied on his own attainments in the Dao of Formations to form the Grand Heaven Alliance.
Now, he was relying on his true strength!
The two types of threats were completely different. There was no doubt that the current Lu Ye was more terrifying than when he had been in the Inner Circle.
The only thing that the Myriad Devil Ridge could rejoice about was the news from Shi Guang that Lu Yi Ye had been seriously injured in the last battle. He would need a long time to recuperate. Therefore, the Myriad Devil Ridge did not have to worry about him jumping out and causing trouble in the short term.
Under normal circumstances, the Myriad Devil Ridge could take this opportunity to challenge Lu Ye and pull him down from the first place of the Spirit Stream List.
However, looking at the current Spirit Stream List, only two of the top six were from the Myriad Devil Ridge. One was Shi Guang, and the other was the female archer. Only the two of them were qualified to challenge Lu Ye.
Shi Guang was seriously injured, and with the aftereffects of the Explosive Pill, he would be bedridden for at least half a month. It would be good enough if he could maintain his ranking. How could he have the strength to challenge Lu Ye?
As for the female archer, she had used up all her arrows. If she wanted to replenish them, it would take a few days.
A few days was enough for Lu Ye to recover.
Therefore, unless someone from the Grand Heaven Alliance challenged Lu Ye, Lu Ye's position on the list would be unshakable.
Naturally, the people from the Grand Heaven Alliance were not stupid enough to do something that would make their enemies happy.
However, the Myriad Devil Ridge was indeed planning to do so. After Lu Ye reached the top of the Spirit Stream List, the cultivators from the Grand Heaven Alliance in the top six were constantly challenged by the cultivators from the Myriad Devil Ridge. The Myriad Devil Ridge clearly wanted to use these people's rankings as a springboard to challenge Lu Ye. As long as they could defeat these cultivators from the Grand Heaven Alliance and replace their positions, they would be qualified to challenge Lu Ye. Once they could challenge Lu Ye, given his current condition, there was a high chance that he would not be able to win.
Inside the wooden house, Lu Ye woke up with a clear pain in his chest and left arm. He did not have much strength in his body. He slowly got up and yawned.
Yiyi was standing guard beside him. When she heard the noise, she quickly stood up and placed a pillow behind Lu Ye. She asked with concern, "How do you feel?"
"I'm fine." Lu Ye rubbed his stomach. "I'm a little hungry. Can I get something to eat?"
He smelled a fragrance coming from outside the window. Unsurprisingly, it was Hua Ci cooking.
Everyone from the Jade Blood Sect seemed to have this advantage. All of them were good at cooking. Second Senior Sister was like this, Fourth Senior Brother was like this, and Hua Ci was also like this.
"Wait a minute." Yiyi floated out of the window. After a while, she came back with a bowl of porridge. He did not know what was in the porridge, but it looked very colorful …
Lu Ye drank the porridge while checking the various messages in his battlefield imprint. He chose to reply to some of them.
Most of them were congratulatory messages. Lu Ye's cultivation was at the eighth heaven, so he had suppressed everyone and occupied the top spot of the Spirit Stream List. Naturally, it was worth celebrating.
