saint of humanity

What Xue Ju said... sounded pretty normal, but Lu Ye was speechless.

"What is your connection with the Phoenix Clan?" Xue Jiu became curious again. If there was no connection, how could the Phoenix Lord show mercy? He was afraid that if that finger came down, Lu Ye's body would be completely shattered, and even his soul would not be able to escape death.

However, he did not get any response from Lu Ye. Xue Ju was too lazy to ask again: "Forget it, let's talk about this later. What I am curious about is how you are going to deal with me."

Now that his split soul has merged with Lu Ye, as long as he escapes today's disaster, he will be able to find an opportunity to spy on Lu Ye's secrets in the future, and then he will know the doubts in his heart.

What made Xue Ju feel unhappy was Lu Ye's tone just now. Even though he was just a fragment of soul now, he was still the fragment of soul of the ten city lords after all. He could not be easily solved by a mere Rong Dao.

But Lu Ye's tone just now was very firm.

"Burn!" Lu Ye uttered a word lightly.

"Burning?" Xue Jiu was suspicious, but frowned the next moment, because a layer of fire suddenly appeared in this magnificent soul sea, and then the whole soul sea seemed to be ignited and burning.

"Flame of the soul?" Xue Jiu was shocked, but soon realized that this was not just the flame of the soul, because when the flames swept over, his soul actually developed an extremely strong sense of crisis.

His expression changed drastically, and he dodged left and right in his soul sea, but the raging flames soon covered the entire soul sea, so where could he hide?

Xue Jiu screamed as the flames attacked him. The strange flames only touched him slightly and were about to burn him to death. No matter what he did, he could not put out the flames. Instead, he seemed to have turned into a ball of cotton and began to burn.

The soul sea was turbulent, the waves were sweeping, and Xue Ju was rapidly extracting his own soul power, trying to escape from this dangerous place.

Lu Ye stood in the raging flames, watching coldly.

Xue Ju has really brought this upon himself.

Lu Ye’s previous plan was to seal his own soul sea when the Blood Judgment was no longer of any use, and use the power of the Talent Tree to refine this strand of his soul.

But doing so is risky after all. He cannot be sure that he can keep this soul. Xue Ju's methods are numerous and mysterious, and the gap between their cultivation levels is too great. There is no telling how he can break the blockade and escape.

But he secretly merged his own soul with Lu Ye's soul sea. His original intention was to completely take over this body, but now it has become his shackles.

Lu Ye doesn't need to seal his own sea of ​​​​consciousness, and he can't escape the blood sin.

As for his current attempt to extract his soul power from the sea of ​​soul...it is not that simple.

The soul power of the two people is like two cups of water. Now that they have merged together, it is very difficult to separate them completely.

After just a moment, Xue Jiu realized that this method was not feasible. Under the burning flames, the sense of crisis in his heart became more and more intense. He knew that if he didn't find a solution, he would probably die here today.

Losing a soul is not a big problem for him; the key is at whose hands he dies.

If he was really killed by a strong man like Lord Feng, Xue Ju would have nothing to say, but it would be a bit unfair for him to die at Lu Ye's side.

"Damn it!" He gritted his teeth and roared, regretting that time was too short and he was a little careless. If he had known earlier, he should have found a way to spy on Lu Ye's secret so that he would not be caught off guard.

At this moment, there was no part of his soul sea that was not engulfed in flames. He was unable to escape for the moment and could only turn his head to look at Lu Ye. The next moment, his body swayed and he pounced towards Lu Ye.

To capture the thief, capture the leader. As long as Lu Ye is captured, he can turn the tide.

Although it was only a split soul, it still made use of the magic of space and instantly flew in front of Lu Ye and reached out to grab him.

Lu Ye didn't move at all. At that moment, a huge burning tree suddenly emerged from nothingness behind him. The tree was swaying, and its crown was like a canopy. On the burning leaves, there were many intricate patterns.

"What is this?" Xue Jiu was stunned. He instinctively felt that the tree contained infinite mysteries and seemed to be some kind of treasure. However, this was not the time to be distracted. He quickly focused his mind and let his soul power surge.

The soul body suddenly stiffened, and Xue Ju's big hand was only inches away from Lu Ye's face, but it could not move forward any further.

He slowly lowered his head, his pupils slightly shrinking, and in his field of vision he saw an image of a root passing through his chest. Following the root, he found that it was extending from the roots of the big tree behind Lu Ye.

More roots began to move, stabbing out like sharp swords.

Tuk-tuk-tuk...

Xue Ju's soul was instantly riddled with holes and his body shook violently.

An even more terrifying burning force than before emanated from those roots, and Xue Ju immediately felt as if he was about to be refined.

The raging flames enveloped the soul and the blood guilt burned fiercely like a candle.

"Boy, what treasure is this?" Xue Jiu knew that he was powerless to save the situation. The only thing he wanted to figure out now was what this strange big tree was.

Although it can be called a supreme treasure, it does not have the aura of a supreme treasure. It seems to be only at the level of a treasure, but the various mysterious powers contained in it are unheard of.

But after his body was pierced by those many roots, he could no longer use his many mysterious methods, as if he could only wait for death.

Lu Ye did not answer, but just used all his strength to activate the power of the talent tree, gathering the flames of the entire soul sea and madly burning Xue Ju's soul.

This kind of burning and refining was definitely an extremely painful experience, but Xue Ju did not say a word. He just closed his eyes and accepted his fate: "I have lost this round. Boy, if you refine my soul, I will be able to find you and kill you no matter where I am in the world!"

Lu Ye immediately activated the power of the talent tree even more fiercely.

Visibly, Xue Jue's soul began to melt and disappear...

But at this moment, Lu Ye suddenly frowned.

Because he felt that someone was shaking the protection of his sea of ​​soul, and this shaking was difficult for him to resist.

With a little perception, I realized the truth.

It was the work of Lord Feng.

This person probably didn't believe that he could get rid of Xue Ju's soul, so he wanted to come in and investigate in person.

Lu Ye didn't want to let her in. Although the Phoenix Lord was Su Yan's elder, how could others just barge into a place like the Soul Sea?
Not to mention, the talent tree has now manifested behind him.

But at this moment he could not resist and could only delay as much as possible and guard his soul sea carefully.

After a few breaths, the Phoenix Lord was obviously a little impatient, and the force of her shaking became more and more fierce, as if she was going to break in forcefully if Lu Ye didn't let her in.

Since this matter concerns the Blood Guilty Soul, she has to treat it with caution. The simplest way is to kill Lu Ye and that wisp of soul directly and put an end to it all. However, Ba Qiu begged for mercy, and Lu Ye had also seized the Phoenix Blood, so how could she kill him?

But this guy was still guarding his soul sea and wouldn't let her in.

After trying a few times, he didn't care whether Lu Ye would be injured or not, and he didn't hesitate any more and exerted force suddenly.

At this moment, Lu Ye opened his soul sea.

When the Phoenix Lord's soul body appeared, the entire soul sea had become calm, and the talent tree behind Lu Ye also returned to nothingness.

In his hand, he was holding a hexagonal blood-red crystal the size of a fingernail.

This was undoubtedly another soul crystal, but it was very different from the soul crystal he had obtained from the previous battle with Jiao and the burning of many souls. Not only was this one larger in size, but it also contained more abundant soul power.

The most important thing is that there are many densely packed tiny lines on the surface of this soul crystal.

"Where is Xue Ju?" Lord Feng looked around and did not see any trace of Xue Ju, which made her feel strange. But the next moment, her eyes turned to the soul crystal in Lu Ye's hand and her eyebrows raised.

She sensed the remaining aura of Blood Guilt from this soul crystal...

Very surprised.

That soul crystal was undoubtedly what was left behind after the Blood Guilt soul was destroyed, and it was not necessarily left behind. If she had used some means to kill it directly before, then nothing would be left behind. Unless some means related to refining were used, such a trophy could be obtained.

The Blood Guilt Soul Crystal is here, which means that the split soul has been refined.

Did this kid...really solve the blood feud himself? What methods did he use?
"Greetings, Master Phoenix. Xue Ju is dead." Lu Ye clasped his fists and secretly rejoiced that if Master Phoenix had only come in a moment earlier, the talent tree would not have been hidden.

Huang Shi Niang didn't say anything, she just raised her hand, and the soul crystal in Lu Ye's hand flew directly into her hand.

She lowered her head and examined it, with an extremely serious look on her face.

Xue Ju is insidious and cunning, and there is no guarantee that he will not do something to this soul crystal. Lu Ye may not be able to detect it, but it will definitely not escape her eyes.

Lu Ye sniffed and dared not say a word.

After a moment, Huang Shi Niang looked up at Lu Ye again, and the disgust in her eyes lessened a little. It seemed that this human boy still had some abilities.

But this is definitely not the reason why he seized the Phoenix Blood!
She had high hopes for that younger generation in her clan, and...no one in the human race is a good person!

With a flick of her finger, the soul crystal flew towards Lu Ye again. Huang Shi Niang said in a cold voice: "Although I don't know how you refined the Blood Guilty Soul, this soul crystal contains his many insights into the way of cultivation. Refining it well will be of great benefit to you."

Lu Ye raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

For example, this soul crystal is very different from the ones obtained before. The previous ones were just the condensation of pure soul power, but Xue Ju's soul crystal is obviously not just that.

The talent tree can burn away things that are disadvantageous to itself, but can retain things that are beneficial to itself. Many of Xue Ju's insights were thus preserved.

Lu Ye was in a good mood.

Previously, when the Blood Guilty soul borrowed his body to fight against the Tianxuan Sword, Lu Ye benefited a lot from it. It was a pity that the time was short after all, and what he learned was not solid, and many of them were just facts without knowing the reasons.

But with this soul crystal, everything will be no problem.

Just by refining this soul crystal, he would be able to get a glimpse of Xue Ju's many insights on the path of cultivation, which would definitely save him many years of accumulation and sedimentation.

I just wanted to deal with the Blood Guilt Soul, but I didn't expect there would be such an unexpected surprise. This is definitely the biggest gain of this battle. (End of this chapter)
