In the corridor, the "very, very poor" Lu Ye was counting his wealth. He only had a little more than two hundred Spirit Stones, but he didn't know if it was enough to buy a Secret Art. If it wasn't enough …
He took out the small bell Spirit Artifact from his storage bag. This was the relic of the Nine Stars Sect's Young Master, so it should be worth a lot of money. If it really didn't work, he could only use this to pay off his debt. He still had the Nine Stars Sect's Young Master's storage bag. There should be a lot of good things inside, but unfortunately, he couldn't open it.
But then again, many of the Profound Sect's disciples had benefited from him in the past few days, so it was reasonable for the Profound Sect to give him a discount, right?
Chu Tian sent another message, asking about his subordinates.
Lu Ye told him the truth. There was no need to hide it. Moreover, a Secret Art that suited him was very important.
A moment later, Chu Tian sent another message, telling him that he would give him a definite answer tomorrow at the earliest, or the day after at the latest, because it would take some time to send the Secret Art over from the station.
Lu Ye said that there was no problem.
After ending the message with Chu Tian, Lu Ye got up and prepared to practice his saber. Although he had been fighting non-stop these past few days, he had never stopped practicing his saber because he could feel that this most basic training was very helpful to him, and this was something that required perseverance.
However, before Lu Ye could unsheathe his saber, a tiger's roar suddenly rang out. Lu Ye abruptly turned around and saw Hu Po's figure scurrying towards him.
Yi Yi, who was monitoring the situation at the other end of the corridor, also ran over. After exchanging a glance with Lu Ye, she hid behind the rock wall.
Hu Po ran in front of Lu Ye, turned around, and lowered his body. There was a wound on his body that wasn't too serious, and he roared towards the front.
A figure slowly appeared from the other side. Lu Ye circulated his Spirit Energy to investigate the other party's aura. He made up his mind. If it was a Fifth-Order, he would immediately retreat. If it was below the Fifth-Order, he would kill him without leaving anything behind.
But after seeing the other party's aura, Lu Ye furrowed his brow. Judging from the luster of the aura, it was only a Second Order Spirit Stream Realm cultivator …
But what puzzled him was that this person's aura was very different from an ordinary Second Order Spirit Stream Realm cultivator. Not only was it extremely pure, it also gave off a very solid feeling.
"It wasn't easy to find you." The newcomer stopped ten feet away from Lu Ye and smiled. In the dark night, his white teeth were extremely conspicuous.
The other party wasn't very old. Lu Ye felt that he was one or two years younger than himself, and his figure wasn't very burly either. However, it was this person who stood there so casually that Lu Ye couldn't help but feel tense.
Over the past few days, he had fought many battles with the Nine Star Sect's cultivators. Although he could not accurately judge whether a cultivator could pose a threat to him, he still had a vague feeling.
The fact that this Second Order cultivator could make him tense up meant that there was something unique about him.
"Tiger Crossing the Mountain?" Without waiting for Lu Ye's reply, he introduced himself, "Boundless Island, Luo Ji!"
Lu Ye immediately recalled that Chu Tian had mentioned this person to him during the day. At that time, he didn't ask what kind of place Boundless Island was, but from Chu Tian's tone, it should be a very powerful force, and a cultivator from such a force must have an extraordinary background.
Therefore, after the other party finished introducing himself, Lu Ye took a step forward, unsheathed his long saber, and charged straight at that person.
[Let's cut him down first!]
He could kill a Fourth Order cultivator as a Second Order cultivator, so how could he be afraid of a Second Order cultivator as a Third Order cultivator?
Lu Ye's legs, which had been imbued with spiritual power, exploded with speed. As he closed the distance of ten zhang, Lu Ye's spiritual cavities let out an explosive sound. That was the sound of the Spirit Gathering Spirit Pattern that he had constructed before shattering under the surging spiritual power.
"Brute!" Luo Ji snorted and raised his hand unhurriedly, pointing at Lu Ye. "Bai Zhuo!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a fluorescent light appeared on his finger. The fluorescent light suddenly expanded and turned into a strong white light, illuminating the dark corridor.
Lu Ye was instantly blinded by the strong light. At this moment, he felt like he was staring directly at the sun. Even though he closed his eyes immediately, he couldn't help but feel sore and tears flowing down his face.
[This dog called Luo Ji is so despicable!] Lu Ye hurriedly retreated.
"Earth Spike!" Luo Ji shouted again as he lifted his foot and stomped on the ground.
In the next moment, an earth spike appeared out of thin air behind Lu Ye and slammed into his waist. Lu Ye, who was retreating, lost his balance from the impact. His spine was sore, and if he hadn't activated his protective spiritual energy, he would have been injured.
"Ice Spike!" A cold aura suddenly appeared as Luo Ji pointed his finger at Lu Ye and a chopstick-sized ice spike shot out like an arrow towards Lu Ye's face.
Lu Ye hadn't opened his eyes yet, mainly because he had been caught off guard. Feeling the chill coming from the ice spike, he didn't even think about it and activated his Spirit Rune to block it in front of him.
With a boom, it was as if it was not an icicle that collided with the defensive spirit rune, but a huge rock. Lu Ye was pushed back by the powerful impact, and at the same time, his face hurt. The shattered icicle had left small wounds on his face.
"Golden Arc!"
Inside the corridor, a golden crescent-shaped slash flew towards the retreating Lu Ye. Compared to the previous Spirit Runes, this one was particularly lethal.
The Golden Wheel Talisman that Lu Ye had once used was based on this Golden Arc Slash. The attacks that came out of the Golden Wheel Talisman were actually weakened Golden Arc Slashes.
In terms of power, the Golden Arc Slash released by Luo Ji was even more powerful than Lu Ye's Golden Wheel Talisman. If Lu Ye had been caught off guard by this attack, he would have likely been cut in half.
The Golden Arc Slash was extremely fast and arrived in front of Lu Ye in the blink of an eye. Seeing this, Luo Ji's mouth curled into a smile.
With a loud bang, the Golden Arc Slash was broken by Lu Ye's saber. Behind his saber, Lu Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression extremely dignified.
The other party was just a Second-Order cultivator. Lu Ye thought that even if Luo Ji had some kind of trick up his sleeve, he would still be able to take him down, but after exchanging a few blows, he discovered that he was wrong.
This Second-Order cultivator was different from all the other Second-Order cultivators he had seen before!
In the past few days, Lu Ye had killed many Nine Star Sect disciples and had seen how the disciples of the Profound Sect fought. Although they would occasionally use some Spirit Runes, it would take some time to prepare. There had never been a cultivator who could do what Luo Ji did. The other party was able to use Spirit Runes at will, and his attainments in them were extremely high. It was obvious that he was on the path of Dao Cultivation …
What surprised Lu Ye even more was that this Second-Order cultivator's Spirit Qi seemed to be even richer than his own. Before, he couldn't tell just by looking at the aura, but now that he was fighting, he could clearly see the other party's Spirit Qi fluctuations. It was definitely not the Spirit Qi fluctuations of a Second-Order cultivator. It was even stronger than the Fourth-Order cultivators he had killed before.
Putting everything together, Lu Ye immediately thought of a possibility.
