saint of humanity

What Si Sheng could see in his life, Xue Jiu was naturally not blind, so he became increasingly reckless and frequently made rash moves, but always managed to escape unscathed.

With the three of them surrounding him, Xue Yuan was caught off guard and his injuries continued to increase.

During the great battle, he clearly felt that Si Shengyuan's strength was much greater than it had been back in the Origin Realm.

He knew, of course, that this was not due to a sudden increase in Si Shengya's foundation, but rather an enhancement brought about by the Dao Integration Pearl. However, he did not sense the aura of the Dao Integration Pearl from Si Shengya, so he naturally concluded that Si Shengya must have hidden his Dao Integration Pearl somewhere nearby.

However, for him, now is not the time to consider these things, because they are not very meaningful.

In fact, since his career was exposed, he has no chance of escaping unscathed. What he is doing now is nothing more than a cornered beast fighting for survival.

In the midst of the fierce battle, the aura of the Blood Abyss weakened continuously, and the scene became chaotic.

Lu Ye and Si Shengya pressed forward relentlessly, their attacks ruthless. On the contrary, Xue Jiu changed his previous aggressive style and became cautious, constantly hovering on the edge of the battlefield, using blood techniques to restrain Xue Yuan's energy, as if afraid of any unexpected events.

As expected, an unexpected event occurred.

Just as Si Shengya was about to wound Xue Yuan again, his already weakened aura suddenly surged up like boiling water, and with a backhand axe, he sent Si Shengya flying.

He then turned to look at Lu Ye beside him. Facing Lu Ye's follow-up attack, he did not dodge as before. Instead, he quickly changed the hand seals and shouted, "Bind!"

In an instant, blood gushed out from all the wounds, large and small, all over his body like snakes, and his face turned deathly pale, as if all the blood in his body had rushed out at that moment.

The blood snakes radiated outwards like chains, intertwining with each other.

At such close range, Lu Ye was caught off guard, mainly because he did not expect Xue Yuan to act in this way. In his shock, it was too late to back away.

In the blink of an eye, the place where the two were located was sealed off as a cage by the blood-red chains.

"Lu Ye!" Upon seeing this, Si Shengya, who had flown out, immediately realized something was wrong, and with a low cry, he flashed back.

However, it was too late. Almost at the same time that the blood-red cage took shape, Xue Yuan revealed a sinister smile and looked at Lu Ye, who was right in front of him, and said, "If you want to kill me, then we'll die together!"

The boiling aura emanating from him suddenly turned dangerous.

A hundred feet away, Xue Jiu, who had been on guard, fled without looking back. A veteran vampire half-saint was about to unleash his Blood Explosion Technique, and this was no joke.

Even he didn't dare to stay nearby any longer, so naturally he wanted to run as far away as possible.

Even Si Shengya, who was preparing to return to provide support, hesitated briefly before suddenly turning back and leaving.

Xue Yuan laughed loudly, his eyes full of disdain: "See? These are your companions. In the end, they'll all scatter when disaster strikes."

Lu Ye's face showed panic. He immediately tried to use his spatial power to escape from this place, but as Xue Yuan swung his axe again, his spatial power was instantly annihilated, completely cutting off his hope of escape.

In just three breaths, Blood Abyss's Blood Explosion Technique was completed, and the crimson dot within his body was like the beginning of the universe, about to explode.

The extremely dangerous aura made Lu Ye's scalp tingle, and even Xue Jiu, who had already fled from this place, felt as if he had thorns in his back.

However, Lu Ye's panicked expression turned calm at this moment. He looked at Xue Yuan with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

Xue Yuan vaguely sensed that something was amiss, but at this moment, he had no time to think about it. Once the Blood Explosion Technique was activated, there was no turning back.

"Die!" With his angry shout, a surge of violent power exploded, and a ball of red light bloomed like the sun. It first swept over the blood-red cage, but after being bound for only a moment, it suddenly expanded.

The vast sea of ​​blood trembled incessantly, its waves surging like a tide.

Having already escaped the sea of ​​blood, Xue Jiu felt a tremendous force approaching from behind, making it difficult for him to maintain his balance. He was secretly terrified, realizing that he had run fast enough, otherwise he would probably have been swept up by the aftershocks. He wouldn't have died, but he would have been injured.

He turned his head and looked back, his eyes filled with excitement.

Today's siege has resulted in Xue Yuan's death, but what surprised him even more was that Xue Yuan took Lu Ye with him before he died!

"Haha..." Xue Jiu raised one hand, spreading his fingers to cover his cheek, afraid that he would burst out laughing, but in the end he couldn't hold back and finally let out a complete laugh: "Hahahaha!"

Finally... finally I'm rid of that bastard Lu Ye!

Back in the Origin Realm, the True Saints' attack allowed Lu Ye to survive by sheer luck. But today, under the terrifying power of the Blood Abyss Blood Explosion Technique, there is absolutely no way Lu Ye could have survived.

He no longer needs to worry about the deadly poison lurking in his body, and no one in the world can use it to control him anymore.

Right now, all he needs to do is refine the bloodline that Blood Abyss left behind, and his own potential will be increased in the future. If he continues to cultivate step by step, one day he will be able to grow to the level of Blood Abyss.

However, there is another problem, namely Si Shengya. It is unknown what Si Shengya's attitude will be towards him without Lu Ye as the hub.

But these are all minor details. At worst, we can say some nice things to Si Shengya. After all, we've only fought side by side before. In the current Star Abyss, Si Shengya is all alone and will need our help in the future.

Various thoughts surged in Xue Jiu's mind, already envisioning all sorts of wonderful futures.

The laughter stopped abruptly, and Xue Jiu remained in the position of raising his hand and spreading his fingers to cover his face, stiffly turning his head to look at the person beside him.

Just a few steps away from him, Lu Ye stood quietly, raised his hand, and the Panshan Blade, which had been lost in the sea of ​​blood, flew back.

Xue Jiu's face twitched slightly, and he felt a dryness in his throat: "You..."

Lu Ye glanced at him expressionlessly: "What?"

"No..." Xue Jiu replied instinctively. He really wanted to ask how Lu Ye had managed to escape unscathed from the situation just now, because it seemed that the guy was completely unharmed.

But how could that be? That was Blood Abyss's Blood Explosion Technique, and to prevent Lu Ye from escaping, he had also used a secret technique to seal off the space beforehand.

No one could remain unharmed in such an environment.

"Does the Blood Lord think I'm dead?" Lu Ye's words revealed what he was thinking.

Xue Jiu first shook his head, then hurriedly nodded, his confused and embarrassed expression instantly turning into sadness: "I thought it was a tragedy that the heavens were jealous of talent, but I never expected that Brother Lu could escape from the jaws of death. It's really great... How did you escape?"

The last sentence was the key point; he genuinely wanted to know how Lu Ye had done it.

Lu Ye ignored him.

Of course, he wouldn't tell Xue Jiu that the one who died was his own talent tree clone.

In fact, Lu Ye was already on guard when he sensed Xue Yuan's ill intentions. The last-ditch counterattack of a veteran half-saint like Xue Yuan should not be underestimated. If he really set his sights on him, even Lu Ye would not dare to say that he could escape unscathed.

In particular, the Annihilation Power of the Blood Abyss Treasure is the nemesis of the Void Teleportation Technique.

Therefore, during the great battle, he secretly switched the positions of his main body and his clone, and even changed the clone's clothes to match those of his main body.

The battle was intense and chaotic at the time, and not only was Xue Yuan unaware of it, but Xue Jiu and Si Shengya were also completely unaware.

The difference in strength between the clone and the original was not significant. The clone lacked only the support of the Panshan Blade. Lu Ye deliberately left the Panshan Blade for the clone, thus eliminating any weaknesses.

In hindsight, his caution was undoubtedly extremely wise; otherwise, he might have been in real trouble.

Lu Ye had no confidence that he could withstand the terrifying impact his clone felt before its demise.

The reason Si Shengya also fled at the last moment was not because he was afraid, but because he received a secret message from Lu Ye himself.

Unlike Xue Jiu, this guy was really in bad shape and ran faster than anyone else.

A streak of fire flashed by and landed in front of him; it was Si Shengya, though his aura was clearly unstable at the moment.

Even though he had been warned by Lu Ye and managed to escape beforehand, he still couldn't completely avoid the impact of the Blood Explosion Technique, and he was already somewhat injured.

"Are you alright?" He looked Lu Ye up and down, his face full of concern.

Lu Ye shook his head: "It's alright." He knew that Si Shengya was unaware of the mystery of his clone and was worried that he, the original body, would be implicated in the death of his clone.

"Let's go!" he called out, and took the lead in rushing towards the now-settled sea of ​​blood.

The great battle is over, and it's time to collect the spoils.

A demigod's wealth is extremely substantial.

Three figures swept into the sea of ​​blood, and Lu Ye quickly found the lost item from the Blood Abyss.

There were several storage rings, and he didn't know what good things were inside. He wasn't in a hurry to open them and check. What Lu Ye really cared about was the Xuanhuang Annihilation Axe.

Although the annihilation power of this thing is quite mysterious, it is not very useful to Lu Ye. He can just use it to devour and nourish the Soul-Suppressing Bell Fruit.

Today he faces a half-saint, but in the future he may become a true saint, or even face the Abyss directly.

We need to prepare our spiritual defenses early.

As for the power of the Xuanhuang Annihilation Axe itself, it can be left as a bulge on the talent tree, and nurtured when another treasure is obtained in the future.

These are not the only things scattered and lost in the sea of ​​blood; there are also the Dao bones of the Blood Abyss and the sea of ​​blood itself.

This is what Xue Jiu wants and values ​​most.

Because the bloodline of Blood Abyss is contained within it.

But at this point, he hesitated.

In the sea of ​​blood, Xue Jiu looked around, his face showing the discomfort of having swallowed a dead fly.

Because of the previous battle, he clearly saw that Xue Yuan was poisoned. Even though he self-destructed and died, the power of the poison still remained hidden in this sea of ​​blood.

If he were to refine the bloodline of the Blood Abyss, he would have to absorb its deadly poison into his body as well.

He was already suffering from severe poisoning; if this happened again, wouldn't it be adding poison to poison?

He secretly wondered if it would be possible to get Lu Ye to take back the poison.

However, he quickly dismissed the idea. That Lu Ye… he'd be lucky if he didn't secretly poison the sea of ​​blood; how could he possibly help him retrieve it? (End of Chapter)
