Chapter 066: General Retreat (Part Four)

It’s over!

Bai Qiulan felt an overwhelming fear bubble up inside her as she caught sight of that blinding blood red.

The Lotus of Slaughter had just exploded with its lotus seeds at this moment.

Retreat!

Retreat!

We must evacuate the Genius Ancient Battlefield.

No one can stay here; whoever lingers will die!

No exceptions.

Lu Ye had transformed entirely into a monster that only knew slaughter.

He would unleash every means of killing at his disposal.

“Retreat!”

Bai Qiulan formed a seal, her Taiyin divine power enveloping Yue Hongling and Sun Ruowei as she fled without looking back.

Simultaneously, she took out the Transmitting Stone.

“Feng Shidi, you need to inform all Grand Dao Sect disciples to evacuate the Genius Ancient Battlefield as quickly as possible!”

“Notify all humans, any sect forces, and let them know to leave the Genius Ancient Battlefield immediately—at the fastest speed and abandon everything!”

Feng Tianchi was startled by Bai Qiulan’s message.

“Shijie, what on earth is going on?”

“A terrifying demon has appeared; all beings left in the Genius Ancient Battlefield will die. I’m not exaggerating; this is serious. Do exactly as I say!”

“If you don’t leave, you will definitely die!”

“Absolutely!”

“There is no chance of survival!”

“You must leave at the earliest opportunity!”

Bai Qiulan’s voice was filled with seriousness, impatience, and a hint of fear.

Sun Ruowei was stunned.

Her expression had shifted from silly to outright dumbfounded upon hearing the words “Husband,” as if her face had frozen completely.

Is it really that bad?

It can’t be!

It’s just that Lu Ye turned red; how does that warrant such fear and urgency from Bai Qiulan?

How long has Lu Ye even been strong?

They only had one chance to enter the Genius Ancient Battlefield, and they hadn’t even tried to make a name on the Eternal Genius Ranking yet. Who would want to leave now?

“Qiulan, it can’t be that serious… Lu Ye is just your disciple. Though he is powerful, surely he can’t scare everyone into retreating?”

“Even if he’s going on a rampage, how many demons does he need to kill?”

“You don’t understand; I’ll explain when we get out!”

“Feng Shidi, did you hear that?”

“I heard, I heard! I’ll contact the various sects right away!”

Because Bai Qiulan’s tone was too serious and urgent, Feng Tianchi sensed the gravity of the situation exceeded his expectations.

He hurriedly contacted other sects.

“What? Now we’re being told to retreat?”

The major sects reacted almost identically, the first thought being how could they possibly leave.

They hadn’t even attempted to make their names known on the Eternal Genius Ranking. What if they could etch their names in history and earn great rewards?

Especially since the strong ones in the Refining Void Realm and Unity of Dao Realm had been at the Genius Ancient Battlefield for less than a day; they hadn’t even explored yet or grabbed any benefits. How could they possibly want to retreat?

Bai Qiulan rushed over to Feng Tianchi’s side as quickly as possible.

Feng Tianchi was startled to see her silver hair.

Bai Qiulan instantly took hold of Feng Tianchi’s Transmitting Stone.

“This is Bai Qiulan!”

“Now, I stake my personal Dao as evidence: what I say is no lie. All Tianjiao strong individuals from every sect must leave the Genius Ancient Battlefield within fifteen minutes, no matter how confident you are in yourselves, or you will undoubtedly die!”

“I’m not joking, nor am I deceiving you.”

“Trust me!”

“If you don’t leave, you will definitely die!”

…

“White Shimei, what on earth is happening? Explain. Why will not leaving mean death? Even if a demon has emerged, how strong can a demon in the Genius Ancient Battlefield really be? Surely we can fight back!”

“Yes, yes! Even if one of us isn’t strong enough, if we band together, we should be able to handle it, right?”

“Not a chance! Even if everyone banded together, they wouldn’t escape death!”

Bai Qiulan’s voice was filled with urgency.

“Everyone, believe me! Leave the Genius Ancient Battlefield immediately! Right now!”

The Transmitting Stone fell silent.

Everyone was quiet.

Some began to doubt if Bai Qiulan had lost her mind, but then again, she was in the Unity of Dao Realm.

Something that could drive a Unity of Dao Realm person to such a breakdown must be an unspeakable horror.

“Alright, all disciples of the Supreme Sword Sect, evacuate!”

Someone from the Supreme Sword Sect spoke up.

“Yes, Shixiong!”

“Robber Sect, all disciples… all disciples retreat!”

“Shixiong, I want to stay here! I want to try for the Eternal Genius Ranking.”

“You… sigh… just be careful!”

“Zhongzhou Imperial Court, all cultivators retreat!”

“Understood!”

“Sister Bai, may I ask, is it him?” Shangguan Huanling’s voice rang out.

“Yes!”

“Alright, I understand. Supreme Imperial Court, all cultivators retreat!”

“Who do you think you are to command the Supreme Imperial Court?” a dismissive male voice sneered.

“The Supreme Imperial Court doesn’t need to leave! I want to see what kind of demon can scare this bunch of cowards so badly!”

“Jiu Li Heavenly Court, retreat! Anyone who wants to stay can do so!”

“Yin-Yang Sect, anyone who wants to leave can leave, but I do think that enemy won’t break through my Yin-Yang Sect’s Yin-Yang Qian Kun Formation! I’m staying!”

“Mountain River Pagoda Sect… never mind, Mountain River Pagoda Sect retreats!”

Most of the human clans believed Bai Qiulan’s judgment as a Unity of Dao Realm.

If a Unity of Dao Realm was this panicked, it was enough to prove the horror to come.

“Also, try to notify all scattered humans to evacuate!”

Bai Qiulan’s figure vanished.

Her enormous voice echoed throughout the world.

“A peerless demon has emerged, slaughtering all! Those who remain will undoubtedly die! I am Bai Qiulan of the Grand Dao Sect; anyone hearing this, evacuate the Genius Ancient Battlefield at the fastest speed!”

Such an announcement rang throughout all layers of the Genius Ancient Battlefield.

Bai Qiulan had no other choice.

Saving even one would be worth it. If Lu Ye could accumulate a little less killing karma, that would be even better!

Above the Sea of Blood.

“Boom!”

The Four Symbols Suppression Formation shattered completely, the Formation Eye of the Demon Clan turning into a blood mist.

In the next moment, the blood mist was drawn in and came to Lu Ye’s mouth, which he gulped down.

His body involuntarily trembled slightly.

Extreme excitement flooded his heart.

“Ah!”

The Celestial Demon let out a shriek, while Lu Ye sliced through thousands of lights with a sword, reaching for the Celestial Demon’s head.

Boom!

The Celestial Demon’s head was crushed, and Lu Ye opened his mouth wide, forcefully stuffing the Celestial Demon into his mouth.

Sword lights erupted continuously.

One, ten, a hundred, a thousand, tens of thousands.

Each beam of sword light was stained blood red.

A word squeezed through his teeth.

“Die!”
