Sage of Humanity Chapter 1170 - 1168: A Turn of Events

Lu Yiye, this na has been ringing in the ears of the old Sect Leader recently, so much so that he's almost tired of hearing it. He is said to be the most outstanding young person of this generation. His contributions in the counterattack against the Insect Race's Great Secret Realm are imnse, and he single-handedly facilitated the expedition to the Blood Refinent World, personally bringing back a wealth of Blood Race intelligence.

What he brought was also the hope for many peak Divine Sea Realm cultivators to ascend to the upper realm!

Through him, cultivators ca to understand the connection between the limits of the Cultivation Realm and the world's foundation. Without this knowledge, the old Sect Leader would likely still be stuck in a useless life-and-death ditation.

Yet despite all the stories, the old Sect Leader of the Loyal Heart Sect has never actually t him.

On the contrary, it was the two Divine Sea Realm cultivators from the Imperial Wings Sect and the Burning Sky Sect, who had allied with him and had a brief encounter with Lu Ye at the victory celebration back then.

To his great surprise, the one coming to support them was this young man.

But it is said that the other party's cultivation is only at the Divine Sea Level 5 realm, and even if he could surpass his realm to kill, what role could he play in this situation?

Just as the old Sect Leader was having these thoughts, a shocked cry suddenly sounded: "Sacred Seed?"

It was the astonished cry of the Blood Race Sacred Seed. This shout gave the old Sect Leader a fright. One Sacred Seed already left them, three Level 9 cultivators, in such a dire state. If there were another one, that would be it. No need to fight; they might as well wash their necks clean now.

But he quickly realized sothing was amiss because the voice of the Blood Race Sacred Seed carried a tone of shock and panic.

Imdiately following was another shout from the Blood Race Sacred Seed, filled with both shock and anger: "Impossible!"

It was as if he had witnessed sothing incomprehensible.

Then the old Sect Leader felt a vast reduction in the oppressive force transmitted from the Blood River surrounding them, alleviating his stifled feelings significantly.

He didn't know what ans Lu Yiye had employed that made the Blood Race Sacred Seed, unstoppable even by three Level 9s, so panicked. But years of cultivation and combat experience told him that the turning point in this battle had arrived!

Within the Blood River, Lu Ye had already activated the Blood Technique. The grand Blood River unfolded, firmly assimilating into the surrounding Blood River.

Having twice dealt with Sacred Seeds before, Lu Ye was now quite adept at effectively eliminating them.

When facing a Sacred Seed, the first thing is to suppress it in terms of saintliness to restrict its powers. Next, rge with its Blood River to prevent any escape. As long as you achieve these two points, and if your saintliness is above theirs, you can slaughter them like a lamb.

Through two rounds of devouring and refining, Lu Ye's saintliness was now so strong that, while not claiming the pinnacle, few Sacred Seeds could surpass him in this regard.

Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable was not among them.

Their saintliness was comparable to the female Sacred Seed he had tead up with Jian Guhong and others to slay, stronger than the Saintly Venerable Mok Hai.

This level of saintliness strength wasn't weak among all Sacred Seeds, but compared to Lu Ye at this mont, it was still sowhat lacking.

The suppression of saintliness instantly reduced the Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable's strength, causing the Blood River to tremble. Taking advantage of this, Lu Ye's Blood River rapidly encroached, and by the ti Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable realized and tried to stop it, it was too late. Their Blood Rivers had already rged by roughly half, with the remaining half still entangled.

Amid the grand Blood River, an undercurrent enveloped a person and directly sent him out. It was the Level 9 from the Imperial Wings Sect who had been severely injured just monts before.

He hadn't even realized what had happened and found himself unexpectedly removed from the battlefield. Realizing this was likely Lu Ye's doing, he marveled at the younger generation's formidability and mystical ans, rapidly fleeing in the direction away from the battle.

His current state was no longer suitable for further combat; he needed to stabilize his injuries quickly. Otherwise, even if the Nine Provinces' foundation greatly increased in the future, he might not be able to glimpse the path to the upper realm. If that were the case, he'd have nowhere to cry if things went wrong.

In the Blood River, one went in, and one was sent out, maintaining the three-on-one situation.

But the situation had completely transford.

Whether it was the old Sect Leader of the Loyal Heart Sect or the Level 9 from the Burning Sky Sect, they vividly perceived the decline in the Blood Race Sacred Seed's aura, as if an invisible force was suppressing its ability to exert power.

They couldn't discern what kind of force this was, as they couldn't feel it at all. But being seasoned combatants, they launched towards the Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable without hesitation.

Originally, within this Blood River, it was quite challenging for them to accurately locate the enemy, and even when they occasionally did, the opponent would quickly change positions, rendering their efforts fruitless.

But at this mont, within the undercurrents of the Blood River, there was a distinct force guiding them, pointing out the location of the enemy. They didn't need to search; they only had to follow this guiding force and unleash their killing moves.

As the two attacked, Lu Ye was not idle. Activating the sword gourd, Sword Qi gathered into a river, fiercely striking at the Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable. In an instant, sharp sword cries filled the air.

The Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable was about to go insane. With his power severely suppressed, even without Lu Ye's intervention, he would be in dire straits this ti. Coupled with Lu Ye's unparalleled Sword Qi, he was swiftly injured all over, blood flowing profusely.

He roared angrily and unwillingly, "How can re humans possess saintliness? How dare re humans damage my sacred body!"

Despite exerting all efforts to resist with the blood technique, it was to no avail.

In the inherent perspective of the Blood Race, the human race is akin to dosticated pigs and dogs, of low status. Now, a high and mighty Sacred Seed was actually beaten by the human race, with their life at risk at any mont. How could this be tolerated?

It's as if in the Nine Provinces World, a lofty cultivator was beaten by a stray dog... In the Blood Refinent World, the situation was even more severe.

However, one thing puzzled him: where these humans ca from.

Although there were also human cultivators in his governed territory, those human cultivators' cultivation was not worth ntioning. The humans that suddenly erged were clearly different, each with considerable cultivation, including many in the Divine Sea Realm.

Thinking about this now seed pointless. He realized that if he did not find a way to escape, he would probably die here.

But, to escape at this point, how could it be so easy?

Previously, he had trapped the old Sect Leader of the Loyal Heart Sect and his three companions using the Blood River Technique, preventing the three Level 9s from escaping. Now, he was trapped by Lu Ye—it could only be said that fortunes change, and karma is inevitable.

Unless he could break Lu Ye's blood river, he had no space to escape.

But his saintliness could not match Lu Ye's, so he could not break Lu Ye's blood river. It was a deadlock.

So, he knew he was probably dood, feeling cold in his heart and blood. He frantically activated his blood technique, wishing to drag soone with him even in death.

The old Sect Leader of the Loyal Heart Sect and the Level 9 cultivator of the Burning Sky Sect, both combat cultivators, at this mont, maneuvered back and forth around the Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable, continuously unleashing the power of their spirit treasures, bringing injury upon injury to the Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable.

When Lu Ye had not appeared, they were fighting with great frustration and restraint. Now that they could finally let loose, they showed no rcy.

Amidst the fierce battle, Lu Ye's voice ca to their ears: "Beware of his Blood Explosion!"

In such a battle, the Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable had the chance to self-detonate, unlike last ti when Lu Ye fought against the Saintly Venerable Mok Hai. In that battle, Lu Ye had shattered his opponent's psyche with the special nature of the Soul Severing Saber, causing Saintly Venerable Mok Hai to fail to even activate the Blood Explosion Technique.

The blood technique activated by the Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable at this mont was not primarily for lethality, obviously more for binding. His intention was clear: as long as he could bind any one of them, he would imdiately activate the Blood Explosion Technique, perishing together with them.

Without Lu Ye's warning, the old Sect Leader and his companion would have likely t with misfortune. But with the warning, Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable's plan was thwarted.

In the fierce battle, the Jade Kirin Saintly Venerable's injuries grew even more severe, even an arm was severed, and the wounds on his body exposed his internal organs.

He had been trying to bind any enemy but failed every ti until he finally sighed, and his aura suddenly beca dangerous.

"Retreat!" The old Sect Leader sensed sothing amiss, realizing the opponent might truly self-detonate, uttering a shout while rapidly withdrawing.

The strong figure of the Burning Sky Sect also did not linger.

Almost at the instant both had exited the blood river and regained the light of day, a loud explosion erupted from within the blood river. Imdiately after, violent energy fluctuations surged forth, visibly expanding the already massive blood river outwards in a circle.

Feeling the fierce power, both Divine Sea Realm cultivators were filled with trepidation. Such terrifying destruction, if at close range, would indeed have led them to perish together.

The expanded blood river suddenly collapsed inward, and within a blink, the blood river spanning the sky disappeared, with a young man's figure coming into view.

Evidently, it was Lu Yiye, with a large gourd hanging at his waist. He appeared handso and bright, lacking the reckless and straightforward nature of a combat cultivator and seed more like an unrestrained and dashing sword cultivator.

The old Sect Leader and the strong mber of the Burning Sky Sect both greeted with cupped hands, and Lu Ye returned the gesture.

There were no further words—it was not a ti for idle talk, as the battle of the three big sects against the Jade Kirin Sacred Land was still ongoing.

Each of them chose a direction and charged into the battlefield.

Lu Ye maintained a layer of blood mist on his body's surface, indicative of the blood technique being on the verge of activation. He did not deliberately kill the enemy but road around the vast battlefield like a specter. Yet wherever he passed, the Blood Race fell like straw blown by the wind.

All the human cultivators he encountered discovered with astonishnt that their opponents' strength inexplicably diminished.

On such a life-or-death battlefield, the sudden weakening of one side's strength was undoubtedly fatal.

The human side had already gained an advantage, with Lu Ye stirring up the situation further, leading to even more severe casualties among the Blood Race. So Blood Race mbers, seeing the unfavorable circumstances, attempted to flee but were mostly intercepted and killed by the human side, with only a few successfully escaping.

Faced with this situation, Lu Ye actually did not have many good options. He couldn't intercept every fleeing Blood Race mber; he could only try his best to eliminate those with higher strength.
