The Clone Technique is an extrely sophisticated spell, and only the most accomplished magic cultivators can perform it. Even she had only scratched the surface of this spell and couldn't fully execute it. Yet today, she saw it used by a re combat cultivator at True Lake Level 3!
Upon closer examination, Lu Ye's clone had so differences from traditional Clone Techniques. The first being, even she, a Divine Sea Realm cultivator, found it hard to distinguish between the real and the fake, as both figures carried Lu Ye's identical aura.
The two figures darted left and right, giving Liew Yuei no ti to think. Instinctually, she raised her hand and cast a spell, blasting it towards one of the figures.
The shadow crumbled instantly and disappeared without a trace, revealing it to be a clone.
This brief delay allowed Lu Ye to widen the gap a bit, and his figure blurred as he activated the Clone Technique once more.
For Lu Ye now, the task was simple: delay for ti while desperately fleeing.
He didn't know if Qian Wudang was coming or where he might be, but facing the pursuit of a Divine Sea Realm, his only option was to escape.
Currently, he was within the range of another mountain pass, where surely a Divine Sea Realm cultivator was stationed. If he could just escape to its vicinity, it would force Liew Yuei to be cautious.
But, the road ahead was long, and accomplishing this seed incredibly challenging.
Thankfully, the Split Shadow Spirit Runes ca in handy at this ti. Several tis, Lu Ye used this rune to confuse Liew Yuei's vision, buying himself so precious monts of respite.
A creeping sense of horror surged from his heart. Stealing a glance back in his busy escape, Lu Ye saw a massive tree's phantom suddenly appear behind the pursuing Liew Yuei, a tree ford from spirit force, towering, lush, and leafy.
The tree looked verdant and thriving, yet it exuded an extrely horrifying feeling.
As Liew Yuei channeled her magic, the tree slightly shook, and leaves started to detach, spinning and covering his direction, an endless torrent of leaves converging into an erald green flood, sweeping toward his location.
Only then did Lu Ye realize that Liew Yuei was a magic cultivator who had cultivated wood-type spells!
This spell was definitely not ordinary, and it was clear Liew Yuei had run out of patience. Otherwise, with her cultivation level in the Divine Sea Realm, she wouldn't have resorted to such a spell to deal with soone at True Lake Level 3.
No doubt multiple failed attempts had thoroughly enraged her.
Such a spell's might was sothing Lu Ye, in his current strength, absolutely couldn't withstand.
Even activating the Dragon Throne wouldn't work. While the Dragon Throne's protection and quality might resist the spell's inherent power, its enormous impact wasn't sothing the Dragon Throne could mitigate, and once engulfed, Lu Ye wouldn't survive even ten lifetis.
Enveloped in the chilling intent to kill, his whole being was on the verge of suffocating, birthing an unprecedented despair.
With a slight sigh in his heart, just as the erald green torrent enveloped his position, Lu Ye triggered the Golden Body Token in his hand!
Previously, in his many perilous encounters, he had prepared to activate this item but always managed to avert disaster, saving considerable battle rit. But this ti, it wasn't to be.
The erald light swallowed the golden glow, and the sky-covering green leaves surged, slicing through every inch of the Void.
Liew Yuei landed before the green torrent, watching coldly.
After a mont, as the spell's might gradually waned and the erald glow dimd rapidly, Liew Yuei's eyes behind her mask turned to shock and uncertainty.
Because in the midst of the expansive green, she saw the golden light standing firm.
The greener it got, the more radiant the golden light beca.
The spell's might completely dissipated, leaving Lu Ye, shrouded in a layer of golden light, and the mask-wearing Liew Yuei staring at each other from thirty zhang away.
"Golden Body Token!" Liew Yuei gritted her teeth, enunciating each word, her eyes turning a fiery red.
She thought that with her personal intervention, slaying soone at True Lake Level 3 like Lu Ye would be effortless, but she hadn't expected such a twist.
As a Divine Sea Realm cultivator, she couldn't be unaware of the Golden Body Token's effect. It's said to be divine protection granted by Heaven's Augury; once triggered, no one across the Nine Provinces could break it during its effective period.
This was precisely why the Golden Body Token was exceedingly precious and rare. Across all sects of the current Nine Provinces, the total Golden Body Tokens wouldn't exceed the number of two hands and were used extrely sparingly.
So she never imagined that soone at True Lake Level 3 like Lu Ye would possess a Golden Body Token.
Now that the Golden Body Token had been activated, she had absolutely no way to kill Lu Ye, unless she waited for its duration to expire.
She was on the brink of madness!
"How could you have such a treasure!" Liew Yuei shrieked, fury boiling over, as she struck at Lu Ye, sending him flying like a rag doll.
Yet with the Golden Body Token's protection, he wasn't hard in the slightest, rely unable to control his body.
After landing hastily, Liew Yuei attacked again with another strike.
Though she knew she was powerless now, she had no outlet for her overwhelming anger, leaving her incredibly frustrated.
After the second fall, Lu Ye rose, staring coldly at Liew Yuei and outright cursed, "Stupid bitch!"
It's not in Lu Ye's nature to insult or waste words during a fight. If soone provoked him and he had the power to retaliate on the spot, he would never hesitate. If lacking the ability, he would quietly mark it, knowing fate turns, and a chance for revenge would co.
The reason he insulted Liew Yuei was not to vent so internal grievance but out of concern for the safety of Xiao Xinghe and Lin Yinxiu.
While he had the Golden Body Token for protection, the two of them did not.
If Liew Yuei decided to abandon him and hunt down Xiao Xinghe and Lin Yinxiu instead, he wouldn't have the capacity to stop her.
So he had to find a way to keep Liew Yuei engaged here. Unable to win in battle, all he could do was resort to insults...
This woman is sowhat crazy now, in a state that is easily provoked.
With a shout of anger, Liew Yuei was stunned on the spot.
She had lived for so many years, born into privilege and of noble status, when had she ever been scolded like this to her face? For a mont, she couldn't react: "What did you say?"
Lu Ye stared into her eyes, enunciating each word: "Filthy! Bitch!"
Boom...
Liew Yuei's powerful aura suddenly spread out, her entire anger erupting like a volcano, she gritted her teeth and shouted, "You're seeking death!"
Fortunately, she knew that Lu Ye had the Golden Body Token for protection, so taking action herself would be futile, hence she shouted fiercely but did not show any signs of making a move.
"Whether I die or not is none of your concern, I heard soone nad Tan Shu died miserably a while ago? Tan Shu is your son?"
"I'll kill you!" The death of Tan Shu was the last thing Liew Yuei wanted to hear now, yet Lu Ye continued to sprinkle salt on her wounds, how could Liew Yuei tolerate this?
As the words fell, Divine Sea Realm's spirit force surged, and an imposing large tree appeared behind her once more, its leaves spinning down, enveloping the place where Lu Ye was.
But what use is it?
As the erald green torrent retreated, the golden light did not dim in the slightest.
The protection ti of the Golden Body Token was quite substantial, Lu Ye still rembered when he first used it in the hunting ground, it lasted for a long ti without dissipating.
"People like you and your son, so vicious, should have died long ago. Tan Shu deserved to die, and you will et no good end in the future either!"
Lu Ye continued to try to provoke her, but the effect was minimal. It was unclear whether Liew Yuei had beco so angry that she cald down, or if she accepted the reality in front of her, as she didn't attack Lu Ye again, but instead reached out, and amidst the surging spirit force, wrapped Lu Ye up and soared into the sky.
Lu Ye secretly thought it was bad.
During the protection of the Golden Body Token, no harm would indeed co to him, but when confronted with a strong cultivator of the Divine Sea Realm like Liew Yuei trying to restrain him, Lu Ye had no ans to combat this.
So, while the Golden Body Token was powerful, it wasn't invincible.
Liew Yuei was evidently planning to take him to a secluded place, wait for a few Shichen, for the effect of the Golden Body Token to dissipate, and then kill him.
How could Lu Ye let her have her way, he imdiately swung his long knife, employing his techniques to resist.
The effect was negligible, only slightly delaying Liew Yuei's flight speed.
At this mont, Liew Yuei suddenly turned her head to look back, and Lu Ye clearly saw a flicker in her eyes.
Following her gaze, two points of light ca into view, flying towards this direction at an extrely fast speed.
Reinforcents had arrived!
Lu Ye was overjoyed, but he was puzzled over why there were two people, who else could it be besides Qian Wudang?
He quickly found out who had co, for from afar, a commanding shout resonated: "Release him at once, or I shall leave you with no place to be buried!"
Sect Master!
It seed that Qian Wudang had brought the sect master along when he ca, greatly reassuring Lu Ye.
He quickly shouted, "Sect Master, help !" and turned back to yell at Liew Yuei: "You're dood; our sect master is here!"
Acting all smug and triumphant.
Liew Yuei was furious inside, but she also knew that it was hopeless, so she could only grit her teeth and curse, "Bastard!"
With a palm strike, she sent Lu Ye flying away.
Qian Wudang and Thang Yifeng, the two Divine Sea Realm experts, were in pursuit, and if she didn't release him, the situation would beco uncontrollable. So, even if she was unwilling, she had to abandon Lu Ye and flee alone.
Lu Ye steadied himself in midair, the golden light of the Golden Body Token wrapping around him, dazzling like the big sun.
The sect master and Qian Wudang arrived quickly, seeing him safe and sound, though sowhat disheveled in appearance, both were relieved.
Qian Wudang asked anxiously, "Yinxiu, where is she?"
Lu Ye replied, "We separated and fled, they are in that direction, they should be safe."
Qian Wudang imdiately darted in the direction Lu Ye indicated, evidently to search for Lin Yinxiu's whereabouts.
Seeing him leave, the sect master instructed Lu Ye, "Stay here, I'll go kill those Ten Thousand Demons Ridge scoundrels, such audacity in acting maliciously on the Haotian Alliance's territory, truly detestable!"
His figure flickered and transford into a stream of light, darting in the direction that Liew Yuei had fled.
With the Golden Body Token's protection, the sect master wasn't worried about Lu Ye's safety, but he couldn't remain indifferent to his disciple's peril.
The audacity of the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge scoundrels to act so brazenly, as if he, Thang Yifeng, didn't exist.
Moreover, he had just reerged and was worried about lacking an opportunity to establish his might; such a great opportunity could not be missed.
