The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

As the icy mist and lightning dissipated, the disheveled figures were revealed.

The Yue Emperor's clothes were already tattered and his body was covered in wounds, clearly indicating that he had been injured by magic.

"To be able to cast so many powerful spells instantly, is there really such a magical genius in the world?!"

Emperor Yue squatted on the ground, panting as he stared at Lu Yao, an incredulous look flashing in his eyes.

Thanks to his demonized physique and blood energy, he survived Lu Yao's barrage of spells, but he was also seriously injured.

A hint of hesitation flashed in the Emperor of Yue's eyes, but it was only for a moment before his resolve hardened.

He took out a broken knife hilt from his pocket, and an aura of decay and antiquity instantly filled the air.

"Black Blood Blade!"

Lu Yao's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately recognized what the Yue Emperor was holding.

After thinking for a few seconds, Lu Yao finally decided not to stop the Yue Emperor.

Because the Black Blood Blade was not yet fully forged, it still needed the Yue Emperor to provide enough blood and energy to refine the true Black Blood Blade.

The Black Blood Blade is a damaged magic weapon with formidable power. In the original story, even a cultivator in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage couldn't withstand a single blow from it, and even a cultivator in the late-Foundation Establishment stage only needed a few more strikes to defeat it.

Such a powerful treasure was something Lu Yao naturally wanted to obtain, so he chose to stop at this stage of Emperor Yue's refinement.

The broken hilt of the sword floated above the Yue Emperor's head, and countless blood-red threads were drawn from the Yue Emperor's body and condensed towards the hilt.

As the Yue Emperor activated some mysterious incantation, a blood tumor gradually enveloped the damaged hilt of the sword, emanating an extremely sharp aura.

The Yue emperor stared nervously at the broken hilt of his sword, a look of fear flashing in his eyes from time to time.

After a short while, the blood extraction finally ended, and Emperor Yue showed signs of weakness.

The Yue Emperor looked at the hematoma with a look of surprise and immediately reached his hand inside.

"Buzz!"

With a swift motion, the Yue Emperor drew a black and red dagger and grasped it in his hand.

"Hehehe! Kid! Your death is near."

"cut!"

Emperor Yue sneered, and with a flick of his black blood blade, a terrifying crimson blade aura slashed towards Lu Yao.

"Thunder Prison Barrier! Spirit-Controlling Thunder Armor! Ice Armor Technique!"

With a thought, Lu Yao released one supernatural power and two foundation-building spells in quick succession to protect him.

Even the Black Blood Blade, no matter how strong, is only slightly more powerful than an ordinary talisman treasure. In the original story, it perished along with two talisman treasures. Lu Yao still doesn't believe that three powerful, perfect-level defensive spells can't withstand it.

"boom!"

The crimson blade light struck the Thunder Prison Barrier first, unleashing an extremely powerful spiritual pressure fluctuation.

At this moment, the Thunder Prison Barrier was very small, just enough to cover Lu Yao, making it the strongest defensive barrier.

In less than two breaths, the Thunder Prison Barrier was cleaved open and crashed into the frost shield formed by the Ice Armor Technique.

Ice shards flew everywhere, and the power of the crimson blade light was greatly reduced after passing through the first area of ​​the Thunder Prison Barrier.

After lasting five breaths, the Ice Armor spell also turned into a pile of broken ice.

At this point, the crimson blade energy had become much more transparent, clearly indicating that its power was not as great as it had been at the beginning.

In just a few breaths, the energy dissipated under Lu Yao's Spirit Thunder Armor.

"Phew, it seems the Blood Spirit Blade isn't as terrifying as I imagined."

Lu Yao breathed a sigh of relief. If the three defenses couldn't hold him off, he would have no choice but to retreat back to his original space and resort to a rogue tactic against Emperor Yue.

"It actually blocked it!?"

Emperor Yue opened his mouth, looking at Lu Yao with a shocked expression, and then turned to leave without hesitation.

Even the strongest Blood Spirit Blade couldn't defeat Lu Yao. If they don't retreat now, are they just going to stay and wait to die?

Refining the Blood Spirit Blade had left him extremely weak, his mana was about to be exhausted, and his injuries were almost out of control.

"Want to escape? It's too late!"

Lu Yao chuckled. The Yue Emperor's magical power was almost depleted, but it was still quite abundant and far from being exhausted.

With a thought, Lu Yao's Yata Mirror once again emitted a golden-blue light, heading towards Emperor Yue.

"Frost Spell! Ice Blast! Dark Lightning Bolt!..."

Lu Yao launched another spell bombardment. Because the mental attack from the Yata Mirror came very quickly, the Yue Emperor had to stop and defend himself.

Even with Lu Yao's magical power and the consumption of his luck, the attack of the Yata Mirror was only at the Foundation Establishment level. It was only because it was a mental attack that it repeatedly achieved great success.

Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to defeat a Foundation Establishment cultivator in one strike if the cultivator is prepared.

The reason why Yue Huang was hit was because he was in the Blood Cocoon state and did not have time to resist.

Emperor Yue unleashed his crimson magical power, enveloping himself. The light of the Yata Mirror was immediately weakened, and by the time it entered Emperor Yue's sea of ​​consciousness, it was no longer a significant threat.

However, Lu Yao never intended to kill the Yue Emperor with this. By forcing the Yue Emperor to stop, he had already achieved his goal.

"Boom boom boom!"

A terrifying surge of magical energy erupted, striking Yue Huang repeatedly. As the blood-red light protecting Yue Huang's body weakened, it was clear that he was about to give way.

After a dozen or so breaths, the blood-red light protecting Yue Huang's body finally dissipated, and he was struck by several Foundation Establishment level spells.

"Aaaaah! I'm not reconciled!"

Despair and resentment flashed in the eyes of the Yue Emperor. He had been planning to form his core for more than ten years, and the opportunity to do so was just around the corner. But in the end, all his efforts were in vain.

With endless resentment, the Yue Emperor finally closed his eyes forever.

……

Walking to the unrecognizable corpse of the Yue Emperor, Lu Yao waved his hand, and the Black Blood Blade and a storage bag fell into his hands.

"Is this considered an unlimited-use talisman?"

Lu Yao picked up the Black Blood Blade, feeling the sharp aura emanating from its blade, and was very satisfied.

The Black Blood Blade is a damaged magical artifact, not a talismanic artifact, so it has no limit on the number of times it can be used, making it an extremely precious treasure.

After putting away the Black Blood Blade, Lu Yao opened Emperor Yue's storage bag.

More than four thousand low-grade spirit stones.

Three mid-grade magic artifacts and more than a dozen low-grade magic artifacts.

A book on the Black Fiend Asura Technique and the method for condensing the Fiend Pill.

More than a dozen bottles of various kinds of pills.

There were also some medicinal herbs, talismans, and other miscellaneous items.

Most importantly, there is one of the Five Elements Blood Coagulation Pills.

With the Ice Demon's, Lu Yao now has two.

The Five Elements Blood Coagulation Pill consists of five different types of pills. They must be taken together to form the Evil Pill.

As long as one takes five Five Elements Blood Coagulation Pills in the late Foundation Establishment stage and then switches to cultivating the Black Fiend Asura Technique, one can break through to the early Core Formation stage in one fell swoop and condense the Fiend Core.

After putting everything away, Lu Yao looked outside the imperial city. The occasional bursts of spiritual energy indicated that the battle over there was not over.

Lu Yao definitely had to make a move to find the remaining three Five Elements Blood Coagulation Pills; otherwise, finding three more would have taken a lot of effort.

The Yue Emperor spent more than a decade preparing for these five Five Elements Blood Condensation Pills.

Lu Yao's figure disappeared from the imperial city, heading directly towards the location of Yu Kun and the others.
