Having had the experience of contending with the Loatheso Aphid from the Insect Emperor World, Lu Ye naturally knew that the individual strength of these elite Insect Race cultivators was very strong, far beyond that of the large insects with little spiritual intelligence, especially their innate bone carapace, which provided extrely tough protection.
But when he actually engaged them in battle, he found that the strength of these Insect Race cultivators was significantly inferior to Loatheso Aphid, making the killing much smoother than he had anticipated.
On reflection, the Insect Emperor World is a top-tier domain, and the Loatheso Aphid from there must be an elite among the Insect Race, so it's natural that Insect Race cultivators from other domains would be sowhat inferior by comparison.
In any case, the progress was very smooth. Lu Ye was originally considering how to spread his Blood Sea without arousing the suspicion of the Insect Race, but unexpectedly they feared "partial strength," so he could only reluctantly demonstrate.
This demonstration resulted in the death of several Insect Race cultivators.
In the great battle, under the manipulation and control of several Insect Race cultivators, those Insect Race bodyguards kept charging through the Blood Sea, searching for Lu Ye's whereabouts, obviously trying to pressure him, but it was completely ineffective.
Once several Insect Race cultivators were slain, these Insect Race bodyguards beca like headless flies. Despite their great numbers, for Lu Ye, taking them down was just a matter of ti.
One incense stick's ti later, the chaos subsided, the turbulent Blood Sea gathered, leaving only Lu Ye standing in the vast core space of the insect hive, even his doppelganger was retrieved by him once again.
Casually cleaning up the battlefield, he set the corpses of the Insect Race ablaze.
Lu Ye silently descended and sat cross-legged to recover.
While recovering and resting outside, one had to worry about being ambushed, but here there was no need to worry, as no one in their right mind would dare to run into the Insect Race's insect hive to cause trouble.
The Insect Race themselves probably didn't expect that anyone would dare to storm in and massacre them single-handedly. Mainly, there had been an agreent between the Insect Race and Blood Race's powerhouses earlier, and Lu Ye's cover with a layer of Blood Cloud was terribly deceptive, who could know that the one hiding inside the Blood Cloud was not so Blood Race but rather a malicious human?
While Lu Ye was recovering here, on the Baiyu Platform, expressions among the strong of the Insect Race began to grow solemn!
Because they chose a different strategy than the Blood Race, the nas of Insect Race prodigies remained on the left pillar, because they had no achievents, naturally, they couldn't break into the top hundred ranks.
However, as long as the nas remained, it ant they were still alive. In the contest of the Divine Sea, surviving was the most important thing, because even without any achievents, one could still enjoy the fruits of victory if they survived to the end.
Since the Taichu Realm opened two months ago, none of the Insect Race's prodigies had died, but just now, several suddenly died, causing the strong of the Insect Race to be shocked!
They couldn't understand how anyone could manage to storm into the Insect Race's insect hive and massacre under the set strategy!
Soon they locked onto a na.
Nine Heavens World, Lu Yiye!
Although they couldn't know specifically what happened inside the Taichu Realm, before and after the deaths of these Insect Race cultivators, the rank of Lu Yiye from Nine Heavens World once again skyrocketed, and it was a fact he climbed to the top again!
The Blood Race had determined their cultivators died at Lu Yiye's hands through such changes before. They even speculated that Lu Yiye had so thod to specifically counter the Blood Race cultivators, otherwise, how could he repeatedly slaughter Blood Race cultivators?
By stepping over the bones of those Blood Race cultivators, Lu Yiye was able to top the list, overshadowing all giants; his top position was built on the lives and blood of Blood Race cultivators.
Initially, over this period, Lu Yiye's rank had already fallen sowhat, with Gu Yulou from Yellow Dragon World and Youping from Northern Underworld Land of Specters surpassing him, but just now, this guy actually surpassed the two before him and climbed to first place again!
The expressions of the strong Insect Race were extrely grave, initially feeling so schadenfreude from the Blood Race's total annihilation, but since it hadn't happened to them, they couldn't deeply feel it.
Only now... the strong of the Insect Race truly experienced the previous feelings of the Blood Race's powerhouses.
What on earth was with this Lu Yiye? If it were said he had a thod to counter the Blood Race, it might be plausible, but surely he couldn't have a thod to counter the Insect Race too?
Several Insect Race cultivators had set up an insect hive, there was no reason for it to be destroyed by just one person, such a thing shouldn't happen at the level of the Divine Sea Realm.
Could it rely be a coincidence? Or was sothing unexpected happening within the Taichu Realm?
However, a day later, this faint hope was shattered.
Because within an extrely short ti, several nas of Insect Race cultivators disappeared again from the left pillar of the Taichu Realm's portal!
With the Divine Sea contest underway until now, there weren't many nas on the left pillar, any noticeable change would attract attention from those concerned.
The disappearance of several Insect Race prodigies' nas yesterday had already attracted the attention of many powerhouses, and unexpectedly, it happened again today.
There was no doubt that it was Lu Yiye of the Nine Heavens World behind this, because if it were soone else, there would have been a slight rise in the rankings with such results, but looking at the top hundred list, the changes in rank were minimal.
There is only one possibility for this — the person who acted was ranked first from the beginning, so naturally there would be no change.
The Blood Race's previous strategy was loathed by the powerhouses of various domains, so when the Blood Race prodigies were killed one after another, until the entire army was wiped out, countless domain powerhouses clapped and cheered, secretly gloating.
Now it was the Insect Race's turn, and it was no exception.
These two major races had always been notorious in the stellar space, and now eting such an end really was gratifying.
Powerhouses from all domains beca increasingly curious about Lu Yiye of the Nine Heavens World. They thought a cultivator at Divine Sea Level 8 entering the Taichu Realm would struggle to survive, not lasting long; yet observing his actions, first annihilating the Blood Race, and then turning to the Insect Race, wiping out their prodigies in droves — what kind of thod was this?
Another day passed, and the faces of the Insect Race powerhouses were as dark as the bottom of a pot, because yet again, so Insect Race prodigies had died, in other words, another insect hive was destroyed!
In the Insect Race's strategy, there were only four hives in total, and now three had been destroyed successively, leaving only one solitary hive, its endurance unknown.
A group of Insect Race powerhouses wore expressions of earnest disappointnt, eager to rush into the Taichu Realm right now to see what was happening inside, why with the advantage of position and numbers, they were bullied by a re Divine Sea Level 8 like this.
Derisive and gloating gazes from all directions enraged the Insect Race powerhouses, but in such a setting, losing their temper wasn't an option, leading them to comfort themselves that at least there was the Blood Race as their unfortunate brethren, and unlike them, they still had one surviving hive...
In the Taichu Realm, Lu Ye continued collecting herbs while searching for insect hives.
The insect hives were actually not hard to find; the main bodies standing outside were the best guide. When the Insect Race cultivators built the hives here, they didn't think to hide them particularly well.
Because they knew generally speaking, as long as one's mind was functioning properly, discovering a hive wouldn't lead to a rash intrusion, which would only lead to an ambush by Insect Race bodyguards and cultivators.
Three of the four hives had already been dealt with, all using the sa tactic, disguising himself as a Blood Race, sneaking into the hive interior, and then unleashing the Blood Sea to massacre.
With only one left, he was in no rush, as it was sothing he could do while gathering herbs.
Intense spirit force fluctuations ca from upfront; obviously, a battle was happening.
Though the number of people surviving was getting smaller, the area one could move in was shrinking too, which increased the chances of encountering others, leading occasionally to such ongoing battles between two sides.
However, under normal circumstances, Lu Ye would walk away without getting involved.
Before entering the Taichu Realm, Yang Qing encouraged him to contend where possible and set a relatively high target for him, but over ti, Lu Ye felt his achievents were adequate, likely enough to secure him a decent ranking, so unless soone showed hostility first, he generally wouldn't initiate trouble.
But this ti, Lu Ye found himself unable to avoid it because he sensed a sowhat familiar aura from the direction of the conflict.
Feeling rather intrigued, a streak of light rushed swiftly towards him, appearing extrely flustered and distressed, vaguely enclosing a graceful and exquisite figure.
Upon closer inspection, he indeed saw a charming and flamboyant face; who else could it be but Yuk Yaorao of the Jiuxuan World?
What a coincidence, Lu Ye hadn't expected to encounter her here.
Her current situation was clearly bad, her aura faint, clearly heavily injured, with Ding You and Zhao Yunliu, who were with her, nowhere in sight, their whereabouts unknown.
Behind her trailed two more silhouettes, fiercely pursuing without end!
When Lu Ye noticed her, she also saw Lu Ye's figure, briefly stunned, then imdiately veered off to the side.
Such an action clearly was not to prevent Lu Ye from blocking her way but rather to consciously avoid him, to avoid bringing trouble to him; otherwise, if she rushed directly towards Lu Ye, whether he was willing or not, he would be dragged into the conflict.
Her kind thought proved futile in the end.
Of the two cultivators chasing her, one switched direction to continue chasing Yuk Yaorao, while the other charged straight at Lu Ye, laughing, "Why, another worthless Level 8?"
As he spoke, he was about to unleash the power of a spirit treasure before him to casually dispose of the suddenly appearing trash.
However, before he could truly make a move, a weapon attack ca his way, followed by a blur as the figure ahead unexpectedly disappeared.
Vaguely, a sharp blade light swept past, accompanied by the tallic sound of a long blade being drawn, and in the next instant, a chilling voice reverberated behind his ears, "Who did you call trash?"
