Chapter 211: Drawing a Prison (Five Updates)
Can’t get in?
Lu Ye looked at the cluster of Return to One Realm strong folks scattered around, feeling a slight headache.
He didn’t exude the Aroma of Achievement in Dao, but he certainly had a sneaky way to enter the Jiang Family, wipe them out, loot everything, and then slip away.
However, that was clearly out of the question now.
Lu Ye was eager to dive into the Jiang Family to collect treasures and take out Jiang Die, and the matter of the nine Return to One Realm folks? Whether he killed them or not didn’t really make a difference.
Although they already had the means to pursue his death.
Still, some matters weigh more than others. Killing nine Return to One Realm folks or taking out one Jiang Die while bringing the Jiang Family together? Lu Ye knew which was the priority.
Lu Ye’s figure emerged.
He radiated an aura belonging to the Destined Realm, which, compared to the Return to One Realm, could only be described as weaker.
But in an instant, all nine pairs of eyes turned towards Lu Ye.
Because this made no sense — nine Return to One Realm people present, which Destined Realm person would dare to release their aura so openly?
Isn’t that asking for death?
When things go unusually, there’s always something fishy.
Two of the Return to One Realm folks paled and quickly retreated.
“The Jiang Family is my loot; you can leave now,” Lu Ye declared.
Upon hearing this, the faces of the other seven Return to One Realm folks changed dramatically.
In unison, they all fled.
It’s this guy!
He’s the one who wiped out all the powerful members of the Jiang Family.
Just one statement scared away nine Return to One Realm folks.
Such an absurd scene played out before everyone.
Lu Ye was rather pleased; the IQ of this group was on the rise.
All nine Return to One Realm folks backed off, not daring to inch closer to Lu Ye.
Lu Ye shot towards the Jiang Family.
In no time at all, he discovered the flaw in the Jiang Family’s Great Formation. After all, he had modified this formation in his previous life—it was safe to say he was intimately familiar with it.
Merging into the Great Formation, Lu Ye’s figure vanished.
Upon witnessing this, the nine Return to One Realm folks felt their eyelids twitch, a wave of relief washing over them.
Thankfully, they had the smarts to retreat.
This guy was too terrifying.
That was the Jiang Family’s Great Formation! You just waltz in like it’s a game?
Even not just one, a few Return to One Realm faces turned pale. The fact he could enter the Jiang Family’s Great Formation so easily implied he could do the same with other formations.
Did that mean no sect formation had any effect on him?
In fact, they were correct in their thinking.
It was indeed like that.
To Lu Ye, sometimes, formations were easier to breach than a simple protective barrier.
Among the Nine Heavens, there were practically no formations that could stump Lu Ye.
Even if there were, Lu Ye could use the System to directly deduce a method to breach any formation with his knowledge of formations—it wouldn’t take long at all.
The formation rapidly broke apart.
Jiang Tianxin was busy replacing the cracks in the formation’s base and supplementing the Great Formation with Spirit Stones when Lu Ye’s figure suddenly appeared inside the Jiang Family.
Right in front of Jiang Tianxin.
A Destined Realm? Not from the Jiang Family? How did he get in?
Jiang Tianxin froze, just processing this thought when the aroma struck her nose.
Jiang Tianxin’s eyes went red.
In an instant, she charged at Lu Ye.
Lu Ye raised his hand and swung a sword.
“Boom!”
Jiang Tianxin exploded into a mist of blood.
As his consciousness spread, Lu Ye’s figure vanished.
Jiang Die’s aura!
Jiang Die’s aura!
Jiang Die, I’m back!!!
Lu Ye dove into the Jiang Ancestral Ground, slashing away!
The speed was astonishing.
Lu Ye’s eyes spotted Jiang Die’s figure, a blood-colored mystical mark surrounding the younger generation of the Jiang Family.
Jiang Die looked at Lu Ye.
Utterly terrified!
“Please, ancestral artifact, protect us!”
“Boom!”
Lu Ye’s body slammed into the golden barrier, a platinum pendant erupting with an extremely terrifying aura, forming a gigantic shield that enveloped the remaining Jiang members.
The speed was too fast.
Lu Ye’s head was buzzing from the impact.
He was flung backward.
Lu Ye shook his head, trying to clear his thoughts.
He had been rushing non-stop; he even generously let the nine Return to One Realm folks go, yet he still ended up a step too late?
The Void Pendant!
One of the ancestral artifacts of the Jiang Family, once used by a Great Emperor of Covering Heaven from their ranks, it had been damaged and returned to the ancestral ground for recovery, simultaneously safeguarding the Jiang lineage.
It was an ancient artifact, to say the least.
The slumbering spirit of the artifact woke up, an old-looking kid flying out of the Void Pendant.
“What’s going on? Has the Jiang Family fallen to the point of being attacked at their ancestral ground? The Jiang Family, which dominated for eons, when did it become so desolate?”
Nobody answered him.
Because at that moment, the younger generation of the Jiang Family had their eyes bloodshot, let out strange cries, and pounced toward Lu Ye.
When facing the Aroma of Achievement in Dao, the Return to One Realm folks could still occasionally mutter a word or two, but facing the Aroma, the Destined Realm folks completely lost all autonomy.
They all went mad and charged toward Lu Ye.
They swarmed, covering the entire golden barrier.
The spirit of the pendant was startled.
What the heck?
What’s going on?
Lu Ye bypassed the horde, glancing at the spirit of the pendant.
His right arm erupted with blood light as he threw a Celestial Lord Fist.
The barrier was immediately caved in, and a figure on the other side spat blood, knocked back, only to charge at the barrier again, blood-red eyes fixated on Lu Ye.
They let out incomprehensible roars.
The artifact spirit quickly adjusted the barrier, making it extremely hard.
Lu Ye threw another punch.
This time, he nearly shattered his fist.
Can’t break through?
Lu Ye pressed against the barrier, staring at Jiang Die, whose eyes were blood-red, her features exquisitely twisted with rage.
Their faces were so close together.
Lu Ye didn’t waste any words and simply left.
With his current power, he couldn’t break the defense of the Void Pendant.
No rush!
First, let’s loot everything of value from the Jiang Family. Many places showed signs of being ransacked, but the treasures bearing powerful protections hadn’t been taken.
They probably couldn’t break the protections.
This was no challenge for Lu Ye.
Confirming that he had plundered all the valuables and wiped out everyone from the Jiang Family outside the ancestral ground,
Lu Ye destroyed the Jiang Family’s Great Formation.
The Jiang Family was revealed fully for the first time to everyone.
The Return to One Realm folks were slightly dazed.
Lu Ye maintained a safe distance from this group, yet they were all greatly terrified of him; whenever Lu Ye advanced, they instinctively retreated.
“I’ll give you a chance to live.” Lu Ye spoke.
“Now, attack that golden barrier and smash it; if you do, you live. Use all your strength; otherwise, you die.”
Lu Ye’s words sounded… well, let’s just say it was a threat.
The group of Return to One Realm folks…
Right now, the number of Return to One Realm folks gathering around the Jiang Family was growing.
Listening to Lu Ye’s words, many felt it was absurd.
Or else, what if they didn’t listen?
