"No worries." Inside the house, Lu Ye responded and continued to feel his own changes.
The Life Origin thod and Beast Seal thod had both been established, and aside from feeling more intimate with Amber and their lives being interconnected, there were no other significant changes.
However, Lu Ye had a faint feeling that in battle, he should be able to borrow so power from Amber.
This trip to the secret realm had been very fruitful, just acquiring the Life Origin thod and the Beast Seal thod alone.
A mont later, Lu Ye stepped out of the door, facing the Great Elder and an old woman who were waiting outside.
Seeing Lu Ye and Amber, the Great Elder's eyes brightened, "Young Master, have you already bound the Life Origin thod?"
He clearly noticed sothing, marveling in his heart. He had never heard that the Young Master had studied the Life Origin thod before. How had he mastered it so quietly?
"Yes," said Lu Ye, then he tore open his shirt, "Great Elder, I only ant to bind the Life Origin thod, so why did I bind the Beast Seal as well?"
The Great Elder showed a surprised expression, "This is..."
The old woman next to him couldn't help but widen her eyes.
"This Beast Seal won't cause any problems, right?" Although Lu Ye felt fine, it was still sothing that needed careful confirmation.
"Heaven bless the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect!" The Great Elder suddenly burst into tears, quite moved, leaving Lu Ye utterly confused, as the old woman beside him kept sighing sothing about how "the Sect Master would rest in peace knowing this."
After their emotions had settled down, once they explained, Lu Ye understood the whole story.
In the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, the Life Origin thod and Beast Seal thod were originally one, but had been separated through generations of modification and improvent because, separated, they could be executed more progressively and easily, with a higher margin for error.
But this did not an that the modified Secret Techniques were better.
Binding the Beast Seal while establishing the Life Origin thod undoubtedly ant that Lu Ye and Amber had reached an understanding that ordinary cultivators and demon beasts couldn't achieve.
A demon beast that could establish such a bond with a cultivator could no longer be called a natal demon beast but rather a destiny demon beast.
Since ancient tis, the number of cultivators in the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect who possessed their destiny demon beasts was few, but each was a stabilizing force for the Sect, and it was through their continuous contributions that the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect beca the strongest sect in the world.
Now that the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect was in ruins, Lu Ye, as the Young Master, originally lost his natal demon beast in battle, but now he had fortuitously gained a destiny demon beast. In the eyes of the Great Elder and the old woman, this was undoubtedly a sign that could lead the sect toward revival, which explained their excitent.
Lu Ye himself didn't have many thoughts on the matter, whether it was a natal demon beast or a destiny demon beast, it made no significant difference to him.
Amber was just Amber, as long as he confird there was no problem with his Beast Seal thod.
Moreover, in the eyes of the Great Elder and the old woman, he was the Young Master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
But from Lu Ye's perspective, he was just a passerby after all.
If what Xia Qianqian said was true, then the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain had long been obliterated, and the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect would no longer exist.
All he had experienced was rely Heaven's Augury recreating everything with inexplicable ans, allowing the cultivators of the Nine Provinces to partake in this grand calamity to temper themselves.
Suddenly, a sensation of the ground shaking and mountains swaying ca from all directions, followed by chaotic spirit force fluctuations and the sounds of shouting and fighting.
The Great Elder, who was speaking with Lu Ye, changed his expression, unsure of what had happened.
Lu Ye, however, was clear in his mind. What was ant to co had finally arrived.
They had initially rushed back to Two Worlds City due to a massive attack by demon beasts. Judging by the ti, those beasts should have arrived.
"Where are the people of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect?" a robust voice ca, and a cultivator dressed in dazzling armor, appearing like a commander, flew over and hovered above them.
This disregard for others made the Great Elder's face turn angry, and just as he was about to explode, Lu Ye spoke up first, "I am the Young Master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, what brings you here, General?"
The cultivator casually threw a jade slip to Lu Ye and said hastily, "Demon beasts are attacking the city, the City Lord has ordered that all people of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect cooperate with Crimson Fire Camp to defend Section A-3 of the wall, move quickly, and make no mistake!"
"How dare you!" the Great Elder couldn't hold back any longer and shouted, "Call Liew Wuzhai, that old fool, to speak with !"
The cultivator coldly glanced at the Great Elder, "The City Lord's order states that all cultivators within Two Worlds City bear the responsibility of guarding the city. Those who defy the order and create chaos during battle will be killed without rcy!"
The Great Elder was about to speak again, but Lu Ye stopped him and told the cultivator, "Go ahead, General, we'll be right there!"
The cultivator nodded slightly to Lu Ye and disappeared in a flash, going sowhere to coordinate other cultivators.
The Great Elder was furiously indignant, still cursing Liew Wuzhai for pushing people too far, wondering how the Young Master, the precious daughter, could sit beneath the falling house...
Lu Ye said, "Great Elder, when the nest is overturned, no eggs remain intact. Two Worlds City is now our last line of defense. If Two Worlds City falls, the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain will surely perish. Since we have co here to seek refuge, we should contribute our efforts and follow the coordination of Two Worlds City."
Upon hearing this, the Great Elder looked at Lu Ye as if he was seeing him for the first ti. In his heart, his own Young Master had always been pampered and privileged, not soone so sensible. Back when they were at the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, he was a complete profligate, indulging in pleasures and neglecting proper affairs every day.
With teary eyes, the Great Elder grabbed Lu Ye's hand and patted it, "The Young Master has grown up!" he sighed secretly. Indeed, hardship could make a man grow quickly.
A group of cultivators from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, each at the Cloud River Realm, showed relieved expressions, as if seeing a child co into his own for the first ti.
Lu Ye was quite helpless.
The door opened, and Xia Qianqian and others appeared. Their eyes t, and Xia Qianqian and her companions nodded slightly.
Lu Ye held the jade slip, his mind imrsed within it, checking the location of Section A-3's wall.
The distance was not far. This indicated that when Liew Wuzhai had arranged for them to stay in this courtyard, he must have already decided to assign them to defend this section of the wall.
Under Lu Ye's lead, a group of people soared into the air and flew toward the direction of Section A-3 of the wall. Mid-air, they looked around and saw that the entire surrounding area of Two Worlds City was sward by flying demon beasts, their sheer numbers nearly obscuring the sun.
Vivid colors continuously burst forth in all directions, the cultivators' maneuvers striking down nurous flying demon beasts every mont, blood and scattered remains strewn everywhere.
Two Worlds City had a protective array, but it had not been fully activated at this ti because if it were fully activated, they would only be able to defend passively. Facing the overwhelming demon beasts, the protective array would eventually be breached.
To resolve the crisis of Two Worlds City, they could only counterattack while defending, continuously killing attacking demon beasts. Only in this way was there a glimr of hope.
Therefore, the city's protective array had actively left so gaps open in various places. This allowed attacking demon beasts to launch their assaults through these gaps. This approach not only effectively relieved the pressure on the protective array but also allowed more precise placent of forces for defense.
Faced with this dangerous situation, the side of Two Worlds City naturally understood that it's better to guide than to block.
The section of the wall where Lu Ye and others were headed was one of those places with an opened gap.
Many flying demon beasts had already flown into the city through the gaps in the array. The powerless commoners hid trembling within buildings, praying silently.
In the city, nurous cultivators flew back and forth, chasing the demon beasts that had broken through the defenses and flown into the city. In the midst of the fierce battle, blood flowed like waterfalls.
On the city wall, which was dozens of ters high, the figures of cultivators stood firm, deploying their maneuvers. Demon beasts continuously surged up the wall only to be slain and repelled.
The entire city was bustling with activity.
When Lu Ye, leading more than ten from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, arrived at Section A-3 of the wall, the situation there was already critical. Nurous demon beasts had scaled the wall and were tearing and striking at the cultivators. So were injured, so were dead, others howled in rage as they fought the demon beasts in a deadly struggle.
If no reinforcents were forthcoming, it wouldn't take long before the defense line would be breached. At that mont, innurable demon beasts would swarm in, overwhelming the entire city.
Should that situation arise, it would an the defense line had been lost, and the only option would be to close the gaps that had been opened in the array. At that point, the protective array would inevitably face even greater pressure.
It could be said that Lu Ye and others arrived just in ti.
The group, all at the Cloud River Realm, was not many in number, but with three at Level 9 Cloud River Realm, the power they could exert was unimaginable.
The brilliance of magic and spells and weapon control blazed a trail first. The dull sound of 'thud thud thud' was endless to the ear, as the brilliance of weapon control not only brought out bursts of hot blood but also reaped the lives of those frenzied demon beasts.
Although Lu Ye had experienced so grand scenes in the Spirit Stream battlefield, the situation before him was still far more formidable.
This was a struggle for survival space between cultivators and demon beasts in an entire world. The cultivators had no route of retreat; they must either repel the enemy or die on the battlefield.
As a visitor from the Nine Provinces, Lu Ye should have found it difficult to empathize with the tragic spirits of the cultivators from the Ten Thousand Beasts Domain at that mont, but as he stepped onto this battlefield and joined the fray, he quickly rged into it. At this mont, he truly seed to beco the Young Master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, leading the remaining forces of his sect, contributing his humble effort for the survival of the human race.
The more than ten individuals from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, led by Lu Ye with Xia Qianqian and the Great Elder guarding his flanks, left devastation in their wake, leaving even those Demon General-level beasts unable to match their edge.
The demon beasts that had surged onto the wall were quickly cleared, and the perilous defense line stabilized.
Blood dripped from the Boulder Mountain Saber in Lu Ye's hand, his blood Qi surging around him, along with that of Amber, who crouched on his shoulder.
After forming the Beast Seal with Amber, Lu Ye didn't feel much different when not in combat, but the sensation was distinct during battle.
Their blood Qi intertwined, and with each slash Lu Ye made, he could borrow so strength from Amber, making his strikes fiercer and faster!
