saint of humanity

When Lu Ye calmed down, he found that he seemed to be on a stage, but this stage was ridiculously large. He was standing in one corner of the stage, and Jiao was in the other corner opposite. However, because they were too far away, Jiao was just a small black dot in his field of vision.

Looking up, this arena is covered by a semicircular dome. Above the dome are dotted with many stars, and the sun and the moon are moving, just like a real starry sky.

There are countless seats around the arena, but they are empty at the moment.

"Elemental Treasure Fighting Arena?" Lu Ye instantly understood his current situation and finally understood Jiao's intention.

He secretly marveled at how generous this guy was. In order to create an opportunity to fight him alone, he actually used two of his special treasures at once.

The first item, the Inverted Yin-Yang Mirror, can ignore the barriers of space and replace one's position, separating oneself from Jing Lei and others. The second item, the fighting arena, can create such an environment to ensure that one will not be disturbed by others during the fight.

There are also fighting arenas in the starry sky, but they are just rare treasures refined by cultivators. Lu Ye had been plotted against using this rare treasure, and many things in the starry sky have traces of precious treasures, and the fighting arena is just one of them.

It was a great opportunity for an ordinary cultivator to obtain a special treasure, but Jiao had a lot of special treasures. Including his gold and silver scissors, that was three special treasures in total.

Come to think of it, it is indeed not easy for ordinary cultivators to obtain a treasure, but Jiao is the son of Xingyuan after all, and he has channels to obtain Xingyuan coins. Even if his chance of obtaining Xingyuan coins by killing enemies is not as great as Lu Ye's, he has lived long enough and always has some accumulated capital in his hands. It is no problem for him to exchange a few treasures from the Xingyuan treasury as a means of supporting himself.

It can even be said that he may have only these few treasures in his hands!
Unlike Lu Ye, who used all the Xingyuan coins he had worked so hard to earn to exchange for treasures to help Quan Liao get promoted, Jiao did not have any soldiers, so he did not have to spend money on this.

When Lu Ye was secretly alert, Jiao's laughter could be clearly heard from afar: "Let's see who can save you this time!"

The reason why he failed last time was entirely because Yuan Xi, the white chess player, personally took the opportunity to play and directly took away Lu Ye, the white chess piece. If not for this, he would have already succeeded in taking away Lu Ye's Xingyuan Blessing.

Now he has used a special treasure to seal off this area of ​​the starry sky, and this is done within the rules of the chess game.

In this case, he and Lu Ye must decide one of them to live or die before the fighting arena will be unsealed. Before that, chess players from both sides cannot interfere in their fight.

He was absolutely sure that he could kill Lu Ye here, because he was stronger than when he fought with Lu Ye not long ago!

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiao had turned into a line of blood and rushed towards where Lu Ye was.

At this moment, a series of vague figures suddenly appeared on the seats around the fighting stage that were originally empty.

Those figures had no substance, they seemed to be just souls, some solid, some ethereal, as if they could disappear at any time.

At first, the number of these souls was not large, but it soon increased rapidly, as if the battle that had not yet begun here had disturbed their slumber and awakened them.

These souls are all monks who were defeated and killed in the fighting arena. Their bodies died here, but their souls were imprisoned by the power of the treasure, with no chance of escape. They endure torture day after day and year after year until the moment their souls disappear.

In the blink of an eye, half of the empty seats were filled, and the number was still increasing.

Of course, it was impossible for Jiao alone to kill so many cultivators. In fact, this was the first time he used the fighting arena to fight against others. Before this, he had never killed any enemy here.

However, there is not only one elemental fighting platform. There have been countless of them throughout history. These souls are all those who died in other fighting platforms.

Seeing Jiao rushing to kill with great momentum, many souls suddenly became boiling, and endless wailing sounds came from all around the seats, as eerie as the howling of wind in a ghost cave.

After countless years of torture, most of these souls have lost their own intelligence. They are just a group of wandering ghosts in ancient and modern times.

Any battle in the fighting arena would cause them to move abnormally and go crazy. At first glance, the sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling seemed like they were cheering for Jiao, but it also disturbed people's minds.

Lu Ye's expression changed slightly.

It was not because of Jiao's aggressive approach, but because he was here and could clearly feel the malice of those souls towards him. One or two were nothing, but when countless of them came together, even he felt a chill all over his body.

These souls have lost their intelligence, but because they died in the fighting arena, they have an instinctive malice towards any living creature that breaks in here.

It can be predicted that if there were no restrictions around the arena, these many wandering ghosts would pounce on them in an instant and drown them both.

Although the arena was large, Jiao was extremely fast. He reached the front in just a dozen breaths. As the blood line disappeared, it turned into his figure. The short blade in his hand turned into gold and silver, and he slashed towards Lu Ye frantically.

Lu Ye activated his own holiness without hesitation.

Those who had suffered great losses at the hands of this guy before certainly did not dare to be negligent.

At the moment when the holiness permeated, Jiao's movements were obviously paused for a very short time, and the Taoist power and blood flowing through his body were suppressed.

He couldn't help but frown, because compared to the last time he fought with Lu Ye, the holiness of this human soldier seemed to... have improved again.

The improvement is not huge, but it is indeed an improvement because I am being suppressed more.

When did it become so easy to improve the holiness of our clan? Jiao was a little confused. You know, even he had to practice hard for dozens or hundreds of years to make a slight improvement in his holiness. At his current point, it was already very difficult to improve. It was not something that could be done with the help of external forces. He had to spend a lot of time and energy to practice, study, and develop his own bloodline power.

So he really couldn't understand what was going on with Lu Ye. The key point was that he was obviously a human!

There was no time to think about it, because Lu Ye's long sword had already fallen, and the blurred gold and silver colors were separated at this moment, as if the chaos was broken and yin and yang appeared.

His pale face changed drastically, his body suddenly stopped, he staggered slightly, and took three steps back before he stabilized.

Then he and Lu Ye stared at each other with a confused look on their faces.

He was puzzled. How could the enemy be so strong? You know, since Lu Ye was rescued by Yuan Xi last time, he has been killing enemies and strengthening himself. Compared with before, he is much stronger.

He was confident that even if Lu Ye had some gains, they would definitely not be as much as himself, because Heixue had told him before that after this human soldier was injured by him, he took several rounds to heal his wounds, which meant that he had killed several fewer people than himself.

So even if everyone's strength is getting stronger, the gap in strength between each other will become larger and larger. He should be able to easily defeat his opponent this time!

But in fact, this is not the case. He can judge from the power of the opponent's sword that the gap between them has not increased, but has shrunk to an almost negligible level!
Even if the other party is more holy and suppresses me more, it shouldn't be like this!

No, this is definitely an illusion!
As the thought came to his mind, Jiao once again swung the two short blades in his hands, just like before, towards Lu Ye.

When the knife flashed, the chaos was broken again, yin and yang were separated, and Jiao staggered back a few steps.

Although Lu Ye retreated further, his eyes became much brighter.

As expected, the gap in strength between them is narrowing. Although he is still slightly inferior in strength now, he is no longer being crushed as before.

Jiao probably thought that the gap in strength between them would become bigger and bigger, but in fact, in the chess game, no one knew except him and Yuan Xi. The surprise that he killed He Dao had greatly improved his own strength, so even if he killed fewer enemies than Jiao, his strength improvement was greater than his.

Furthermore, he had previously killed two vampires and his holiness had improved, so he was able to suppress Jiao even more.

In that case, this battle... will be interesting.

Liao was also extremely excited: "Lu Ye, there is a chance!"

What it longed for was such a evenly matched situation. It would be best if Lu Ye fell into a disadvantage so that it could devour the mystery of the opponent's treasure to a greater extent. It didn't work before because a round of twenty breaths was too short, and the gap in strength between them was too great, so Lu Ye couldn't hold on at all.

It's different now.

"Go!" Lu Ye chanted to it in his heart, and his body leaped out, and in a flash he was beside Jiao, his long sword was like a spear, and a rainbow pierced the sun.

On the blade, the power of Tao condensed into one point, and even the void was cut open!

"You bastard!" Jiao finally accepted the reality that the gap in strength between them was not that big. That was why he was extremely annoyed.

He did not hesitate to risk his life and broke into this chessboard alone, and even used two special treasures. Wasn't his ultimate goal to kill Lu Ye quickly?
As long as he could quickly kill Lu Ye and take away the Xingyuan Blessing from him, then his merit would be complete. As for being besieged by many Hedao after killing Lu Ye...

He believed that with his current strength, even if he was besieged, he could hold out for a while as long as he spread out the sea of ​​blood. When it was Heizi's turn, he could escape from here.

And all this is based on the premise that he can kill Lu Ye in a very short time.

But if he had known the situation would be like this, then why was he working so hard and making such sacrifices?
Even if he could really defeat Lu Ye, it would be a pyrrhic victory. By then, he would be besieged by dozens of enemy warriors. Would he still have a chance to survive?

As he roared, the golden short blade was held horizontally in front of him, blocking Lu Ye's attack. At the same time, the silver short blade slid out, slashing towards Lu Ye's abdomen like a crescent moon, like a silver poisonous snake showing its core. (End of this chapter)
