Chapter 121: No Waste (Part 1)

The Sea of Blood raged endlessly, with piles of corpses like mountains.

This was a horrific war.

Even Lu Ye unleashed terrifying slaughter on the battlefield, yet countless human cultivators fell.

Chu Ling was pursuing the alien coalition.

After such a long time, she reappeared, her strength astonishingly reaching the peak of the Void Refinement stage.

Yes, the peak of Void Refinement!

You see, Lu Ye was also cultivating, not wasting a single moment.

Moreover, he had received the top reward on the Eternal Genius Ranking and gathered vast resources, achieving seventh layer of the Unity of Dao Realm—one must say, Chu Ling truly worked hard.

She was the first to understand Lu Ye’s intentions, realizing he had no desire to entangle himself with them.

Lu Ye didn’t need to do anything extra; he just needed to leave them all behind, so far they couldn’t even see him—that would be the best revenge.

She absolutely couldn’t allow that.

So she trained desperately, trained even harder.

But Lu Ye was too strong.

Strong to a despairing degree.

Seventh layer of the Unity of Dao Realm!

No way, she also had to achieve Unity!

Not just achieving it, but a more perfect Unity.

Her path had always been the Sword Technique, and in the end, one could say she was an authentic Sword Dao Emperor, truly powerful in slaughter.

She had to achieve Unity!

Chu Ling stopped her pursuit and turned her gaze to the rear.

The Supreme Sword Sect… it seemed like all their strong members had come out…

A figure appeared—Lu Ye forming hand seals.

A huge wave of flames descended upon the earth.

Tears flowed continuously, but her gaze was extremely cold.

The flames accurately avoided every corpse of the human cultivators, landing instead on the bodies of the aliens, wisps of blood energy rising in the flames, intertwining in the void, condensing.

The other two Lu Ye merged into one.

“I’m going to pursue!”

Lu Ye vanished.

A massive flesh dan slowly took shape in the void, with a multitude of demon corpses becoming part of this flesh dan.

Lu Ye completed the seals and took out the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

The Ten Thousand Souls Banner was swiftly refined.

The banner waved, and a large number of alien residual souls emerged.

“No! No! No!”

These residual souls twisted in fear and despair upon seeing the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

“Demon” is actually a very interesting term.

Before the Nine Heavens, there were two types of demons.

One was the Demon Clan, born with the ability to use demonic energy, with bizarre forms and cruel natures.

The second was demonic cultivators.

The Human Clan entered the demonic path using demonic scriptures, employing demonic energy postnatally—cunning and vicious, committing all sorts of atrocities, and constantly coming up with terrifying ideas.

When demonic cultivators were at their fiercest, even the Demon Clan was afraid.

Currently, the Demon Clan was still trying to emulate the demonic cultivators of before the Nine Heavens, but they only learned a fraction.

Take the Heavenly Demon Emperor for example.

He possessed the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, yet the Demon Clan still had such a large population!

If the demonic cultivators before the Nine Heavens had the Ten Thousand Souls Banner…

“Fellow Daoists, sect members, common folk, prodigies, I need you to assist me in my cultivation, quickly come to be guests at my Ten Thousand Souls Banner!”

“In my Ten Thousand Souls Banner, not only is there no pain, but souls can enjoy comfort, like soaking in hot springs and basking in sunlight, with beautiful soul sisters serving you!”

It sounds nice.

But once you go in, your soul will be squeezed into hot spring water, ignited into light, and transformed into beautiful soul sisters serving others.

So tragic!

While condensing the flesh dan, he was also absorbing the residual souls.

The human coalition watched this scene, falling into silence.

“Cough, Master Liu, does your Grand Dao Sect have such secret techniques?” An elder from the Central Continent Dynasty asked with a cough.

Liu Changfeng…

What Lu Ye was doing was honestly not something the Grand Dao Sect seemed capable of.

It looked more like the deeds of demonic cultivators from that dark era.

Not wasting anything at all!

First slaughter, then bones and blood, and souls…

“Maybe there is, the Grand Dao Sect’s secret techniques are indeed somewhat complex. But skill isn’t about its goodness; it’s how well it is used,” Liu Changfeng replied with a smile.

“That’s true, that’s true. Lu Ye is quite kind. During slaughter, he will feel guilty and cry—truly a role model for us cultivators!”

“Exactly, exactly, he weeps for the fall of beings, indeed a good person!”

“I’ve never seen someone so kind. While others slaughter with twisted faces, Lu Ye does it out of a sense of duty to protect all life—this shows how reluctant he is to kill, truly a righteous person!”

The strong members of the Robber Sect…

The Supreme Sword Sect and Central Continent Dynasty had evacuated many disciples after listening to Bai Qiulan’s words, suffering minimal casualties.

But the Robber Sect was different.

Half of their disciples came out, only to be forcibly stopped by the sect’s elders.

Consequently, their disciples met a tragic end.

Later, due to their disciples’ deaths, they sent strong members to hunt down Lu Ye.

Resulting in a pile of strong members dying as well.

Originally, the Robber Sect and Grand Dao Sect had a good relationship, but because of this incident, it led to a rift.

Of course, Lu Ye bore some responsibility; regardless of the circumstances, he did the killing.

But the Robber Sect had some responsibility too.

The one deemed dangerous wasn’t anyone else but Bai Qiulan.

As a strong cultivator of Unity and a unique prodigy of the Grand Dao Sect, she had already sworn an oath on the Dao.

This is akin to a city lord on Earth swearing by his ancestors, warning everyone that a fierce tiger is approaching and urging immediate evacuation.

Yet, some people refused to leave, claiming their valuable belongings weren’t packed yet.

Some wanted to evacuate, but another deputy city lord said, “It’s just a tiger; nothing to worry about.”

And then the tiger arrived.

Unafraid of blades and guns, it began devouring people.

The tiger is at fault, but what about the obstructive deputy city lord?

After careful consideration, and with Liu Changfeng continuously expressing apologies, the Robber Sect eventually decided to ease relations with the Grand Dao Sect.

Listening to the Central Continent Dynasty and Supreme Sword Sect endlessly praise Lu Ye’s charisma, the Robber Sect couldn’t bring themselves to agree.

Kind?

Yes, he killed while weeping, but tears fell like rain without a trace of sorrow on his face.

Still call him kind?

The flesh dan was already refined.

All the residual souls were collected into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

Truly kind!

But precisely because of this, the expressions of the Robber Sect’s strong members shifted from blank to unexpectedly revealing smiles.

The Grand Dao Sect, having such a ruthless person, was really going to rise.

After Lu Ye’s clone refined the flesh dan, he spoke to Liu Changfeng.

“Sect Master, I’m going to hunt the Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Emperor.”

“Be careful! I’ll have an ancestor follow you!”

“Understood!”

Lu Ye’s figure transformed into a streak of light, heading toward his main body.

What?

Understood?

“Two ancestors, quickly follow Lu Ye to protect him!”

Five minutes later.

Two ancestors returned sulkily.

“Protect? Forget it, the guy’s long gone.”
