Sage of Humanity
Chapter 2327 - 2325: Chaotic Battle
Su Yan's mood became heavy; some matters were nearing their decision point, yet the closer they came, the less she wanted to face them.
The time spent together was actually not long, and they didn't share a deep friendship, but just from Lu Ye's willingness to advance and retreat together with her, protecting the Four-Ears World, she knew Lu Ye was kind-hearted, and someone like him shouldn't meet a bad end.
"Should we hide too?" Her heart troubled, Su Yan asked.
Lu Ye slowly shook his head: "Not realistic. Do you believe if we hide, the Sun Race will definitely convince another Peak Dao Fusion group to first team up to find and eliminate us?"
Solar Flames and Moonless were now engaged in combat with Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang, and even from this position, Lu Ye could feel the aftershocks of their fight.
Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang were likely not their match, but the Blood Race and Insect Race combination was intact and even recovering in the Dao Pool. Lu Ye didn't know what their plans were right now, but if he and Su Yan remained hidden, even a fool would know they were hiding.
Solar Flames wouldn't let him and Su Yan sit back and watch tigers fight.
So, there was no chance to hide.
"Could you fake death like that jellyfish star beast?" Lu Ye suddenly asked.
Su Yan thought for a moment and shook her head: "I have a similar secret technique, but it's impossible for it to be as flawless as that jellyfish star beast!"
Lu Ye understood: "Then I'll have to do it."
He had actually always had this plan, but the star beast combination had already executed it, only they didn't expect Lu Ye could see through their plan. After all, the jellyfish star beast's death appeared flawless, anyone who saw that scene would believe it was truly dead.
At the moment, Lu Ye explained to Su Yan slowly, and Su Yan kept nodding.
Moments later, the two prepared and quickly headed to the Baiyu Platform.
At that moment, Solar Flames and Moonless were fiercely battling Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang, undoubtedly showing the former team had absolute superiority in the scene, because Solar Flames' strength was too strong and his affiliated treasure Dao soldier was both offensive and defensive. In other words, not only did his offensive power have at least 270 Daos, but even his defense was at this level.
Junior Sister Shuang could only exert 249 Daos of power, and Ning Gu was weaker due to compromised strength, unable to break Solar Flames' protective Dao force, naturally having no way against him.
The outcome of their rivalry actually was already determined, but Solar Flames wanted more than just victory and defeat; he wanted life and death!
As the seemingly strongest team in the current showdown, Solar Flames and Moonless were pursuing the reputation of Star Abyss Heir, wanting to seize every opportunity to eliminate threatening opponents, so they would spare no enemy.
Had it not been for Su Yan's Escape Technique being too wonderful earlier, Solar Flames wouldn't possibly have made peace with Lu Ye. To him, Lu Ye and Su Yan's team was the biggest threat.
This side was ablaze in combat, while a Dao Pool on the other side was tranquil, where Blood Race and Insect Race were diligently recovering themselves.
The Blood Race was a male cultivator, and the Insect Race was a female cultivator with a slim figure, especially her waist, just enough to be held, but her limbs were extremely sturdy, her body covered entirely with a white carapace, and moreover, she had two long antennae atop her head, at first glance appearing like a wasp become sentient.
"This Sun Race...is formidable!" Blood Race stealthily transmitted audio while observing, "That Crimson Race and his partner are no opponents."
"Shall we intervene?" the Insect Race female cultivator asked. Under these circumstances, if they wished to win in the end, teaming up with Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang first to deal with Solar Flames and Moonless would be the best option.
The three sides stand equally, usually the second team partners with the third team to overcome the first.
"Wait a bit longer." Blood Race knew well that joining Ning Gu now was the best choice, otherwise once Solar Flames dealt with Ning Gu, their turn would be next.
Judging from the aftershocks of their clash alone, facing directly, they were likely not opponents of Solar Flames either.
"Are you worried about that human race and his companion?" The Insect Race female cultivator perceived Blood Race's concern.
Blood Race nodded: "They went after that sludge star beast, should be hiding in the dark now, and since they aren't appearing, they must have their plans. Acting rashly isn't worthwhile for us."
Moreover, even if Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang were killed, they could team up with that human race to pressure Solar Flames, trusting that human race would know the importance.
The Insect Race female cultivator's eyes flashed an inexplicable light: "What if we use the exotic treasure..."
"Don't act impulsively, that's our last resort weapon!" Blood Race hastily replied, the power of that exotic treasure was immense, and even Solar Flames, if not well prepared, wouldn't have a good outcome once ambushed.
During the fiercely contested Dao Pool, neither had been willing to use it, intending to save that exotic treasure to turn the tide.
Thus, without reaching the final confrontation, it was impossible to use it.
"Actually, I think we needn't worry too much about that female archer, her attack style is strong but depletes her Dao force greatly, and her Dao force reserves are ultimately limited. Let me unfold the Blood Sea, she is actually no threat." Blood Race added.
The Insect Race female cultivator nodded, such matter, as long as one wasn't blind, could be seen.
"Watch out!" Blood Race suddenly shouted in a low voice, immediately a flash of golden light crossed through his peripheral vision.
A dull groan came from the side, it was the Insect Race female cultivator who was attacked. Fortunately, his timely warning prevented his companion from sustaining more harm.
Due to the special carapace of the Insect Race, their defense is stronger than that of ordinary cultivators, and with the protective Dao force, they become even more impregnable.
All turned their heads to see Su Yan had unknowingly returned, standing in the distance, bow drawn and aimed in their direction.
"Damn it!" the female cultivator of the Insect Race was enraged.
At a critical moment like this, shouldn't they be targeting the strongest Solar Flames combination? Why focus on them as they've stayed here quietly recovering, not engaging in any conflicts.
"They've already secretly allied!" The Blood Race's reaction was quicker, recalling previous events and immediately making a judgment.
The worst situation had emerged, meaning his plan to team up with Lu Ye against the Solar Flames combination was already thwarted.
This female archer has appeared, but where is the human race combat cultivator?
He quickly spotted Lu Ye's figure; in another direction, Lu Ye's form was elusive, rapidly approaching them with each leap.
"I'll handle the female archer!" The Blood Race decided swiftly, rushing out of the Dao Pool, charging toward where Su Yan stood; for such an enemy, close combat is the way, and if he could unleash the Blood Sea to envelop Su Yan, no matter how many techniques she had, she would be unable to utilize them.
Of course, just from previous clashes, he could tell that Su Yan's escape technique was incredibly profound, so he might not succeed, but despite this, he must try to bind her.
In the Dao Pool, the female cultivator of the Insect Race screamed sharply, actively confronting Lu Ye, soon clashing together.
Their strength was closely matched, given their foundation of over two hundred; the difference in the 9th Dao's power couldn't be ignored, yet gaining the upper hand wasn't easy; this engagement was as if heaven's thunder struck earth fire.
Elsewhere, Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang struggled to hold on.
Though Solar Flames and Moonless held an absolute advantage, they weren't quick to land the killing blow because Lu Ye and Su Yan hadn't shown up, making them somewhat uneasy.
Not until Lu Ye appeared, confronting the insect blood two Dao Fusions, did Solar Flames fully calm down.
It seemed this human race cultivator was indeed trustworthy.
With no more concerns, they could now fight freely.
As Solar Flames shouted lowly, he suddenly became dazzling like the sun, while on the other side, Moonless's aura changed abruptly, becoming extremely gentle, like moonlight pouring down.
The different auras of the two Dao Fusions intertwined, seemingly causing some miraculous change, and in an instant, the battlefield was enveloped by an invisible and formless force.
Under this field, Solar Flames and Moonless became increasingly adept, while Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang felt their pressure surge.
They realized they were likely doomed, without retreat, they completely abandoned defense, instead pouring all their strength into their offensive.
With only one intent, even if they die, they won't let the enemy live well!
In the fierce battle, Ning Gu spat out blood, already seriously injured; his strength compromised after his doppelganger was slain, impacting the fierce contest significantly.
He didn't resent the Solar Flames who sought to kill him, knowing there was no grudge between them, and the struggle was dictated by the rules.
He resented Lu Ye!
If Lu Ye hadn't slain his doppelganger back then, how could he be so miserable now? From the moment he met Lu Ye, he was destined to lose the fame as the Star Abyss Heir.
Suddenly, screams rang out; Ning Gu was startled, glancing at his side eye to see Junior Sister Shuang heavily injured too; his focus had been on Solar Flames, unexpectedly finding the harmless-looking Moonless to be so formidable.
"Fellow Daoist Ning, make your move!" Junior Sister Shuang gritted her teeth and shouted under her breath.
Upon hearing, Solar Flames and Moonless became extremely vigilant.
They had been on guard all along, as no one knew if Ning Gu and Junior Sister Shuang bore exotic treasures.
Now it seemed they indeed did!
They hadn't used it earlier, but at the moment of life and death, it could no longer be hidden, for waiting any longer meant death!
As Junior Sister Shuang spoke, Ning Gu forcefully took a punch from Solar Flames, suddenly revealing an object in his hand!
Solar Flames secretly cursed; he hadn't held back earlier, wanting to kill Ning Gu quickly, yet failed; now that the exotic treasure was summoned, he instantly pulled Moonless, shielding her behind, furiously channeling protective Dao force, assuming a defensive stance.
The power of the exotic treasure was truly formidable, yet he was confident that his 270 Paths of Protective Power could withstand it.
As long as he blocked this strike, Ning Gu and his companion would still die.
