Corpses, blood, severed limbs.
All blended into the Sea of Blood.
Lu Ye’s true consciousness felt like a spectator, watching his own body act as a powerful killing weapon unleashed in slaughter.
“That gaze from just now—Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Emperor!”
Lu Ye recognized it.
As one of his most annoying opponents from earlier on, that gaze was all too familiar to him.
With every passing moment of carnage, Lu Ye’s own awareness seemed to surge with excitement, almost forgetting the illustrious past of his previous life after being reborn and diligently cultivating.
So, bring it on!
Come and challenge me!
Let’s finish off the last alien creature.
The world fell silent.
But the murderous intent only boiled hotter, the slaughter lotus within Lu Ye multiplying his bloodlust exponentially; simply killing wasn’t nearly enough.
Not nearly enough!
His figure vanished, shattering the outer formation with a punch.
“Hmm? The Heavenly Pavilion’s formation?”
To his surprise, it seemed the Heavenly Pavilion had also sent people.
Blood-red murderous aura roiled like dancing flames, and Lu Ye’s speed in the air caused explosive sounds.
His divine sense spread in all directions.
Quick!
Someone come so I can kill them!
Hurry!!!
In the Demon Realm.
Upon the Bone Altar, chunks of soul stones had already shattered halfway.
Tu Wuying had just entered when his soul stone broke, startling the strong members of the Demon Realm.
The speed of destruction was astonishing.
As soon as Tu Wuying stepped into the teleportation vortex, it was as if his clothes were still fluttering in the Demon Realm while his body lay dead.
However, later on, no more demons fell, which made the Heavenly Demon Emperor breathe a sigh of relief.
The death of Tu Wuying must have been a coincidence.
What terrible luck.
Truly, luck is an essential aspect for cultivators.
Tu Wuying’s talent was terrifying; had he not died this time, he absolutely could have become someone to frighten all powerful beings in the heavens.
But alas, he was dead.
“Crack!”
Seven soul stones shattered simultaneously.
The strong demons immediately looked over, their expressions becoming slightly grave.
Thankfully, they were just some ordinary demons.
“Crack! Crack! Crack!”
In the next second, the remaining soul stones began to shatter, the pace of destruction becoming frightening.
“What’s going on?”
A demon expert exclaimed.
Until the soul stones of those in the Unity of Dao Realm shattered.
The entire Demon Realm plunged into a deathly silence.
The demon elites—annihilated!
“Roar!”
The Heavenly Demon Emperor let out a roar that shook the heavens.
What does the extermination of so many demon elites mean?
It means that in the next several decades, or even a hundred years, other clans will sprout a new batch of powerful beings, becoming the pillars of the First Heaven after the previous generation advances to the Second Heaven.
Yet, the Demon Realm would have lost this batch of strong ones.
This created a gap in the emergence of future strong ones in the Demon Realm.
“What on earth happened? Who wiped out our demon elites?”
“Immediately contact the other clans! No, contact the Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Emperor; he will surely know what happened!”
It wasn’t just the Demon Realm.
The Spirit Realm, Divine Realm, Buddha Realm, and Ghost Realm—these independent worlds driven out of the Great Wilderness—experienced similar situations.
Only the Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Emperor knew what was happening.
Because he had left traces within too many demons; many of these demons seemed like independent beings but could be replaced by the Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Emperor at any moment.
Genius Ancient Battlefield.
Eighth Layer, fifteen minutes ago.
Shangguan Huanling heard Bai Qiulan’s message and hurriedly asked Bai Qiulan about Lu Ye.
Even though she used only “he” to refer to him, both she and Bai Qiulan understood that “he” meant Lu Ye.
Thus, she immediately agreed to let everyone from the Supreme Imperial Court leave.
However, it seemed she didn’t have much say within the Supreme Imperial Court.
“Your Majesty, we have to leave! I am very familiar with Bai Qiulan. The danger she spoke of is absolutely real. If we stay here in the Genius Ancient Battlefield, when that monster comes, we will all die!” Shangguan Huanling urgently stated.
Shangguan Tianyin raised an eyebrow.
“Oh? You know this monster?”
“Besides, how come I don’t remember you knowing Bai Qiulan?”
Bai Qiulan was much older than them, well over a few decades. The Supreme Imperial Court had little interaction with the Grand Dao Sect; how did Shangguan Huanling come to know Bai Qiulan?
“Now is not the time to explain that, Your Majesty! The situation is truly urgent; we must make everyone from the Supreme Imperial Court leave immediately, or we will all die!”
“I know this monster; he is incredibly terrifying!”
Shangguan Tianyin turned a deaf ear.
“Then tell me, what is this monster’s name? I am quite familiar with human strong ones and numerous alien strong ones. I don’t believe there is a single individual capable of annihilating all the powerful beings from the Supreme Imperial Court.”
Shangguan Huanling…
Even if she said Lu Ye’s name, he had been relatively unknown before.
Shangguan Tianyin would not believe that a Lu Ye could defeat anyone in the Genius Ancient Battlefield.
“What would I gain from lying to you?” Shangguan Huanling sighed.
Shangguan Tianyin chuckled lightly.
“Sister, the path of cultivation is fraught with dangers; if faced with peril, we retreat, then how could we ever achieve greatness?”
“If you don’t even understand this, then your cultivation journey will end before it even gets far.”
Shangguan Huanling felt a surge of anger in her heart.
In her past life, she had reached the Emperor Realm, yet she had to let a prematurely deceased Shangguan Tianyin lecture her on cultivation?
“I’ll say it one last time: those who want to leave, come with me!”
Saying that, she turned around to leave.
Laughter erupted from behind.
Shangguan Huanling…
If they don’t want to go, fine!
“My sister is a bit timid; it’s no big deal. After all, she’s just a girl, and no one expects much from her. A little bit of timidity is nothing.”
“But Bai Qiulan from the Grand Dao Sect seems genuinely anxious; this danger must be real. Let’s set up a defensive formation—better safe than sorry!”
“Second Prince is wise!”
Shangguan Tianyin’s eyes burned with ambition. Let them all leave! All of them!
Once everyone departed, the entire Genius Ancient Battlefield would belong to him. At that time, his standing in the Supreme Imperial Court might even surpass the First Prince’s.
Becoming the Crown Prince wouldn’t be impossible.
Seventh Layer Space.
The members of the Yin-Yang Sect remained, busily setting up formations.
Luo Yuan, as the Saintess, felt quite conflicted.
Yue Hongling had sent her a message, warning her to leave at once.
Yet, she wasn’t entirely willing to go.
Plus, the strong ones from the Yin-Yang Sect kept emphasizing their fearlessness towards the monster.
In the end, she decided to stay behind.
Many people were leaving.
Some others were feeling lucky, while a portion believed themselves to be invincible.
They continued to withdraw one after another.
In just fifteen minutes, the entire Genius Ancient Battlefield quieted down significantly.
