I'm bound to the World-Destroying Witch

Chapter 399. Rare A-Rank, the Principles of Fruit-Level Cultivation
Just as Ye Lihelian's promotion was once again stalled.

A man with a long knife at his waist emerged from the shadow of a giant cage woven from wooden branches.

The man was barefoot, wearing a black martial arts uniform, with a stubble beard and an unkempt appearance. A long scar ran along the corner of his eye, and the word "knife" was etched in dark, wild strokes on his left eye.

Ye Lihelian stood in the sea of ​​stars, glancing at the newcomer. This person was Dao Kui, one of his father Ye Lidongjun's trusted attendants.

"Mr. Dongjun is looking for you." Dao Kui said lazily, casually tossing the ball of light from his sleeve into the air.

A crack appeared in the sphere, it burst open, and released a 3D image for remote communication.

Ye Lihe frowned and looked up.

In the video, a young man in a wheelchair appears, with gray hair covering his forehead and a handsome face with heterochromatic red and blue eyes.

Judging by his appearance alone, he is very similar to Ye Lihelian, but younger, with a gentle temperament and sharper, deeper eyes.

This man was Ye Lihelian's father, Ye Lidongjun.

However, he was sitting in an alloy wheelchair with a light blue blanket covering his knees and legs, suggesting that he was disabled.

The wheelchair, propelled by the tall woman behind him, moved slowly along the secluded forest path.

The woman's delicate face was indifferent and expressionless. Her long, dark hair, which fell to her shoulders and neck, was neatly cut into a princess style. A bright red, flowing character for "sword" was carved on the side of her right almond-shaped eye, giving her a cold and aloof demeanor.

This woman is named Jianxin, and like Dao Kui, she is one of Ye Lidongjun's trusted attendants.

The young man in the wheelchair slightly raised his heterochromatic eyes to look at Ye Lihelian. His voice, however, was in stark contrast to his youthful and handsome appearance; it was hoarse and unpleasant, reflecting his advanced age: "How is it?"

Ye Lihelian briefly explained the current situation of the fortress, and respectfully said in a deep voice: "The K-mask people are not easy to deal with, and the Q-mask people probably have some tricks up their sleeves as well, but it's not a big deal, they can't escape."

"You know what you're doing." The gray-haired youth nodded, his voice hoarse and calm. "If you successfully condense your rank, come directly to the Holy City. This siege of Sirius will be a great achievement, and you will definitely benefit from participating."

"Yes, Father."

The scene of a middle-aged man bowing respectfully to a young man and calling him "father" was, frankly, somewhat eerie.

However, Dao Kui was already used to it. He looked lazy and thoughtfully glanced south, eager to try.

Outside the core area, the reckless K-mask has begun a killing spree.

Ye Lihelian noticed Dao Kui's expression and waved his hand: "Go if you want to, but remember, take them alive."

"Hey, don't worry, Brother Helian." The scarred man lifted the long sleeve of his martial arts uniform, gave a thumbs-up, and grinned. "He'll be alive."

Dao Kui left quickly, and Ye Lihelian naturally had confidence in this confidant of his father.

If Dao Kui were to go all out, he could easily defeat a Venerable, and he is currently the strongest fighter in the entire fortress.

"When you come to the Holy City later, remember to bring the Origin Water and Origin Flower with you."

The wheelchair-bound youth narrowed his heterochromatic eyes slightly. "Dongsheng Fortress is no longer safe. It's time to give the Origin Flower a new environment to grow."

Ye Lihe nodded, his gaze falling on the withered Origin Flower, which was now just a root. In fact, with the Origin Flower withered like this, it was basically useless.

But there is no other way now. Until the complete Origin Flower is found, we can only hope to use this Origin Flower to cultivate the Origin Egg.

Although the hope is slim, we should still give it a try.

Beneath the Origin Flower, deep in the scorched yellow soil, numerous water droplets, shimmering with golden light, swirled around the roots and stems of the Origin Flower.

Those are drops of primordial water, densely packed, covering the soil.

"The Wheel of Life will open in one minute. Have you completed what I asked you to do?"

"It's done, Father." Ye Lihe waved to the distance, and the three men and one woman who had been standing quietly in the shadows immediately stepped forward and bowed their heads respectfully. "These four are all players of the Ninth Wheel of Life, and they have a total of 820 life points. After entering the Wheel of Life space, they will all be transferred to you, Father."

Ye Lidong glanced casually at the four people with his heterochromatic eyes, nodded indifferently, and said nothing more. The light and shadow quietly dissipated.

Communication is interrupted.

After breaking through the Evil Barrier.

Xia Feng sensed the call of the Wheel of Life space, but he did not choose to enter. Instead, he transferred the number 3 player on his spiritual artifact to Yue Hongli.

Let her enter the space in my place.

There's no need for Yue Hongli to do anything inside; she just needs to maintain her identity as Player 3 and survive.

Of course, with only 50 health points left in his third account, there wasn't much he could do.

Based on the intuition, the leaderboard for the sacrifice phase began to change in the last minute.

[Ranking of Sacrifices]

27th: Sacrifice 10031 lost souls and 99003 souls longing for life.

Number 3: Sacrificed 9929 lost souls, 0 people hoping for life.

Number 2: Sacrificed 9900 lost souls, 33000 people hoping for life.

Number 34: Sacrificed 3999 lost souls, 33004 people hoping for life.

】

The number of people who offered sacrifices on the 27th was the highest, reaching 99000, which would earn a reward of 1000 life points.

Players #2 and #34 who reach the 33000-person threshold will receive a reward of 300 life points.

Xia Feng estimated that Ye Lidongjun would arrive on the 27th, with over 90,000 people hoping for his life, corresponding to the more than 100,000 troops in Baidi City.

As for who numbers 2 and 34 are, it is unknown.

But it is foreseeable that Ye Lidongjun will win.

However, Xia Feng was too lazy to care about the Wheel of Life for the time being. He only had one thought: to kill Ye Lihelian first, and then completely loot the Dongsheng Fortress!
The Li Dong Legion has two super-large fortresses under its command, and Dongsheng Fortress is one of them. Looting this place is equivalent to emptying half of Ye Li Dongjun's family property.

Moreover, there are various experimental studies here that Ye Lidongjun cares about.

If this fortress falls, who knows how long Ye Lidongjun will feel the pain.

While pondering, Xia Feng suddenly looked down and discovered that countless fine red threads were flowing from all directions and converging on the giant birdcage in front of him.

"What is this?" He frowned, a vague sense of unease creeping in.

"Rare A-grade spirit garment, Crimson Lord."

Mu Qingtong came to his side, her beautiful eyes calm, "Those who cultivate this spirit garment can expand their lord's domain, covering 3 square kilometers. All life forms of the same race within this domain will be regarded as their subjects."

"If his subjects have a good impression of him, or are grateful to him, or even develop love and awe for him, then when these subjects die unnaturally, his overall strength will be enhanced to a certain extent. The more people die, the greater the enhancement, and he may even be able to cross one or two major realms."

"According to the laws related to the 'method of condensing the fruit position' and the 'characteristics of the spirit garment itself,' if a spirit master uses the Crimson Lord as their original fruit position, then when they advance to the Venerable level, they will also need to engage in a large number of killings to complete the condensation of the fruit position."

"That is why the Crimson Lord's Armor is a spirit garment that the Empire has explicitly forbidden to cultivate, and it is said that the corresponding spirit paper has long since disappeared."

“But now it seems that is not the case.”
