Lu Ye, who was about to make a move, frowned upon hearing the conversation between those two Blood Race mbers. Reinforcents were on the way for the Blood Race and would arrive in three days.
He knew he couldn't possibly wipe out all the Constellation Blood Race mbers, and once he made his move, there would likely be many who got away. If they joined up with the reinforcents, it would be another hassle.
After a brief contemplation, Lu Ye decided not to act imdiately and silently slipped away.
The Blood Sea was vast, and in order to take over the Blue Jade World, the Blood Race had dispatched quite a few mbers. Even though Lu Ye currently had the Soul Possession of Lih Shang, he couldn't move too quickly, so it took a whole hour for him to erge from the Blood Sea.
He planned to deal with the Blood Race's reinforcents first before handling those who had invaded the Blue Jade World.
Despite this plan in mind, Lu Ye wasn't entirely sure from which direction the Blood Race was coming.
Reaching the near-space domain of the Blue Jade World, he looked back and discovered that the Blue Jade World was different from most other domains he'd encountered; it wasn't a spherical star but more like a massive floating land.
The original scenery of the Blue Jade World was unknown, but from this vantage point, the domain was clearly withering. Only the gathering places of the Spore Race and the Wood Spirit Race were encased by the boundless Blood Sea, showing only shades of blood with nothing else visible.
Contemplating for a mont, Lu Ye raised his hand to condense a doppelganger.
He usually wouldn't expose his doppelganger in front of others, but this ti he couldn't care less in order to block the Blood Race's reinforcents.
Besides, Lih Shang was part of the Soul Race, and even if she saw so of his secrets, she wouldn't have the opportunity to broadcast them widely.
Lih Shang, attached to Lu Ye at this mont, beca one with him but still keenly observed her surroundings. Under her watchful gaze of amazent, another Lu Ye appeared out of thin air.
However, after just a glance, Lih Shang looked away because the newly erged Lu Ye was completely nude.
Doppelganger? Lih Shang was sowhat puzzled; this seed different from her understanding of doppelgangers because, in her perception, there was no difference between this doppelganger and the main body.
The doppelganger soon dressed himself, took up the sword gourd, and an awe-inspiring sword cultivator erged into the world.
The main body and the doppelganger imdiately split up and flew in completely different directions. This way, no matter from which direction the Blood Race reinforcents approached, Lu Ye had a high chance of discovering them in advance.
At a location approximately half a day's journey from the Blue Jade World, the main body and the doppelganger patrolled and searched.
After two days, the main body finally found sothing, looking ahead; a vast swath of blood red was advancing towards them, imposing and grand—it was undoubtedly the Blood Race's reinforcents.
Judging by scale alone, the Blood Race's reinforcents were many, but compared to those besieging the Blue Jade World, they were clearly less nurous.
While Lu Ye didn't have the opportunity to wipe out the Blood Race besieging the Blue Jade World, there was a chance to deal with these reinforcents.
He imdiately activated his Blood River Technique, slightly restraining the power of the Blood River Technique and controlling the scale of the Blood Sea to a comparable level while simultaneously activating the Saintliness Restraint Technique to hide his saintliness.
This was necessary; otherwise, once his saintliness erged, the Blood Race would definitely beco aware.
Lih Shang, possessing Lu Ye's soul, imdiately understood his intention—clearly, he intended to disguise himself as part of the Blood Race.
One had to admit that the Blood Path Secret Technique cast by Li Taibai was almost indistinguishable from that used by the Blood Race, but ultimately, the Blood Path Secret Technique cultivated by the human race differed from the Blood Race's own secret techniques. Such a disguise may not show any flaws from the outside, but once in close contact, the Blood Race would surely detect it.
She silently prepared for battle, knowing that soone noticed by the Reincarnation Tree must be quite capable, but she wasn't sure how strong Lu Ye truly was since she hadn't seen him in action since joining him.
She felt this journey was filled with peril.
Lu Ye propelled his Blood Sea to et that vast mass of blood red.
The blood red showed no signs of obstruction or even stopping; Lu Ye's Blood Sea seamlessly rged into it, and in the next mont, a voice ca from nearby: "How is the situation in the Blue Jade World?"
This clearly misunderstood him as a tribesman coming from the Blue Jade World to et them.
Lu Ye casually replied, "Sowhat tense; the Spore Race and Wood Spirit Race refuse to yield, their spore cloud's defenses are tight and hard to breach!"
The voice snorted coldly, "The Spore Race and the Wood Spirits are obstinate; once we've broken through their spore cloud, let's see what they'll have to resist!"
Lu Ye responded sinisterly, "We'll turn their world upside down!"
The voice retorted, "These two races have so unique skills, making it unwise to kill them all; we should keep so for breeding later on."
The owner of the voice should be the leader of this reinforcent, a Blood Race mber with Constellation Late Stage cultivation, conversing with Lu Ye one sentence after the other.
Yet Lih Shang was utterly confused at this mont.
She couldn't understand why the Blood Race hadn't seen through Li Taibai's tricks. Not only did they accept him smoothly, but they actually took him for one of their own.
Although many races cultivate Blood Path Secret Techniques in the stellar space, the Blood Path Secret Techniques practiced by other races are fundantally different from those of the Blood Race. In theory, as soon as Li Taibai's Blood Technique mixes with the blood hue of the Blood Race, they should have imdiately detected it.
Yet, the Blood Race was clueless and truly considered him one of them.
While she was racking her brains over this, Lu Ye had already quietly spread his Blood Sea as he conversed with the Blood Race, rging it into the surrounding blood hue.
If he wanted to eliminate these Blood Race reinforcents in one stroke, he had to control this area of blood hue. Simply put, he needed to spread his Blood Sea over all the Blood Race reinforcents. Once successful, none of them would escape.
In the Blue Jade World, he didn't do this because the scale of that Blood Sea was too vast for him to manage alone.
But circumstances here were different. Although the number of Blood Race reinforcents was considerable, the gathered blood hue wasn't very large. All he needed was a bit of ti to spread his Blood Sea completely.
As Lu Ye spread his Blood Sea, he also probed the strength of these Blood Race reinforcents. There were many at the Constellation level, along with so in the Divine Sea and True Lake Realm.
Earlier, he was curious about how those in the Divine Sea and True Lake could invade the Blue Jade World, as without reaching Constellation, they couldn't traverse stellar space physically.
Now, he understood it was the Constellation Blood Race who brought them over in this way.
This wasn't a solitary battle; it was a war between races. The Blood Race's Blood Technique was unique, and in such a war, even those in the Divine Sea and True Lake could play a significant role. Without the Blood Race at the Constellation level, it would be hard to succeed.
"Restrain your power!" The leading Blood Race suddenly shouted in dissatisfaction.
Though Lu Ye was expanding his Blood Sea cautiously, it couldn't completely elude the Constellation Blood Race's notice, yet the others did not repel his Blood Sea as they all considered him one of their own.
But as the leader of the reinforcents, the Blood Race Constellation couldn't allow Lu Ye to over-expand his Blood Sea and overshadow them.
"Okay!" Lu Ye responded verbally, but the speed at which he spread his Blood Sea suddenly increased greatly.
"What are you doing?" The Blood Race leader harshly questioned, sensing sothing was amiss, suddenly alert: "Who are you?"
Earlier he hadn't paid much attention, mostly because Lu Ye was obscured by his own Blood Sea and he couldn't see Lu Ye's appearance. Moreover, Lu Ye's Blood Technique seed genuine, leading him to assu he was a fellow clansman, until suddenly realizing that Lu Ye's voice sounded unfamiliar.
There were only so many Constellation in his ranks, especially soone at the Constellation Late Stage like Lu Ye, and the Blood Race leader hadn't recalled hearing this voice before.
Lu Ye ignored him, continuing to spread his Blood Sea, but this ti, it wasn't as easy. Many Blood Race Constellations beca alert, no longer allowing his Blood Sea to rge easily.
Lu Ye sighed in his heart; this Blood Race leader was indeed cautious. Just a bit more ti, and he could fully spread his Blood Sea, ensuring no Blood Race in this place could escape.
At this point, he hadn't fully spread his Blood Sea, only about seventy percent, and with the alertness and repulsion from the Blood Race Constellations, it wasn't possible to act as before.
Lu Ye hesitated no longer, his figure flickered and in an instant, he was upon the Blood Race leader.
The Boulder Mountain Saber unsheathed, its blade flashed and fell.
The Blood Race leader was stunned for a mont. Earlier, with Lu Ye enveloped in his Blood Sea, he couldn't see Lu Ye's appearance, but now as he approached, how could he not see?
"Human?" The Blood Race leader was utterly shocked, never expecting that the person he assud was a clan mber turned out to be a human!
Upon a closer look, this human's face seed very familiar.
Overjoyed: "Lu Yiye!"
These words stunned Lu Ye. He was sure he had never t this Blood Race leader before, and since he left the Nine Provinces, he always acted under the na of Unparalleled Li Taibai, never revealing his real na or origins to anyone.
This guy candidly called out his na, genuinely surprising Lu Ye.
He didn't know that during the battle at the Taichu Realm of the Reincarnation Tree years ago, after he slaughtered all the Blood Race cultivators involved, he was marked by the Blood Race. In the Divine Sea contention throughout history, the Blood Race always secured nurous victory slots, comprising the most talented of their young generation. People drawn from over a dozen large domains perished without exception, including Sacred Seed; how could the Blood Race let this go?
Moreover, Lu Ye also slew a large number of the Insect Race's young Divine Sea, leaving seemingly only one that got away.
After the Divine Sea contention, the Blood Race and Insect Race jointly issued a Bounty Order against Lu Yiye of Nine Heavens. Anyone who encountered him in the stellar space and could kill him could go to the two races' domains to claim a huge bounty, a bounty that not even Moon Jade could ignore.
Of course, given the notorious reputation of these two races, it's hard to say how many would be enticed by such a bounty. At the very least, those within the Insect Race and Blood Race, with so strength, were watching out for Lu Yiye of Nine Heavens.
