Chapter 1512: Life-blood Technique

Lu Ye's image had been seen by many powerful Insectoid and Blood Clan experts, and this Blood Clan official was one of them, which is why he recognized him.

Although Lu Ye had spent several years in the Myriad Manifestations Sea and interacted with many people, he had rarely encountered Insectoids or Blood Clan members. These two major races did not have much living space in a place like the Myriad Manifestations Sea.

Only during the auctions at the Constellation Palace did cultivators from the Insectoids and Blood Clan arrive upon hearing the news to participate in the bidding. However, at that time, Lu Ye had appeared in the guise of Fa Wuzun, so he naturally wasn't recognized.

This time, appearing in his true form, the Blood Clan official immediately recognized him and was overjoyed. Capturing the Blue Jade Realm and enslaving the Spore and Wood Spirit races was an internal clan matter, but if he could capture Lu Yiye of the Nine Heavens, the reward would be his alone.

Seeing Lu Ye's blade descend, he raised his hand and clawed towards Lu Ye's face, his five fingers gleaming with sharp, cold light.

However, the next moment, the joy vanished from his face, replaced by intense horror.

The instant he made his move, an inexplicable aura suddenly spread, so powerful it made him tremble all over. The not-so-tall figure of Lu Ye seemed to grow infinitely in his eyes, like an irresistible deity.

Sacredness! A sacredness so potent it was unimaginable!

This Lu Yiye was actually a Sacred Seed, and his sacredness was far more powerful than any Sacred Seed he had ever encountered.

In an instant, his mind was overwhelmed, his blood energy dissipated throughout his body, and the claw reaching for Lu Ye's face became weak and powerless.

When Lu Ye's long saber struck down, it split the official in half directly, as if chopping a piece of wood.

With a flicker of his body, void spirit patterns flashed beneath his feet, and he vanished from his spot. When he reappeared, he was already before another Blood Clan Constellation and struck down with another blade.

Within the expanse of the Blood Sea, wherever he wanted to go, he could reach it with a single thought.

Li Shang was stunned!

She had originally thought this trip would be a fierce battle and fraught with extreme danger, but when Lu Ye actually started fighting, she realized she had worried too much.

Because those Blood Clan Constellations had no power to resist before Lu Ye. He wielded his blade like chopping melons and vegetables, and one after another, Blood Clan Constellations perished under his blade.

She truly couldn't understand how Lu Ye was doing it, because when these Blood Clan Constellations faced Lu Ye, they were all terrified, likely unable to exert even 30% of their full strength.

What astonished Li Shang even more was Lu Ye's elusive methods, which were clearly a form of teleportation. Even while possessing Lu Ye, she couldn't discern their profundity.

The Blood Clan reinforcements this time consisted of a considerable number of Constellations, around twenty or more, but under the absolute suppression of the sacredness, they couldn't withstand Lu Ye's slaughter.

In just a moment, nearly ten people had died. Li Shang couldn't sense the sacredness because she wasn't Blood Clan, but the Blood Clan themselves could sense it clearly.

All along, the Blood Clan had not understood how Lu Yiye of the Nine Heavens had annihilated their young elites in the Primordial Realm.

Only now did they suddenly understand.

Lu Yiye of the Nine Heavens was a very powerful Sacred Seed, whose sacredness was unheard of. Facing such an enemy, how could the Blood Clan possibly be a match?

The surviving Blood Clan Constellations immediately wanted to flee, but Lu Ye's previous deployment took effect. Under the shroud of the Blood Sea, sacredness permeated, and most of the Blood Clan members, regardless of their cultivation level, had their strength scattered and their bodies weakened. How could they possibly escape?

Only a handful of Blood Clan Constellations, because they weren't covered by Lu Ye's Blood Sea, had a chance to escape.

They no longer cared about their own clansmen, focusing solely on survival and scattering to escape the original Blood Sea.

A figure flashed beside Lu Ye as his clone finally arrived. Previously, because his main body and clone were in different, distant locations, the clone couldn't teleport over using void spirit patterns.

However, when his main body discovered the Blood Clan reinforcements, the clone had already set off towards this location, only arriving at the battlefield now.

After Lu Ye easily dealt with the remaining Blood Clan Constellations suppressed by the sacredness, he immediately split up with his clone to pursue.

The Blood Clan's Blood Escape technique was top-notch even across the starry sky, but Lu Ye also knew the Blood Escape technique, so the fleeing Blood Clan had no advantage over Lu Ye.

What's more, Lu Ye was currently possessed by Li Shang, his own strength skyrocketing. So after only a brief pursuit, he caught up with the fleeing Blood Clan Constellation ahead, enveloped the Blood Clan member with his activated Blood Sea, and ended his life with a single strike.

Lu Ye didn't stop and pursued in another direction.

As the distance continuously closed, the fleeing Blood Clan Constellation clearly knew his fate was sealed and suddenly stopped. He turned around, glaring fiercely at the approaching Lu Ye, and gnashed his teeth, "Lu Yiye, my Blood Clan will fight you to the death!"

As he finished speaking, blood energy surged around his body, as if his entire being was boiling.

Under Lu Ye's astonished gaze, the Blood Clan member suddenly swelled up and exploded into a pool of blood.

Lu Ye frowned; he hadn't expected this individual to be so resolute, self-detonating despite knowing he was no match... He vaguely felt something was off but had no time to ponder it deeply. He casually collected the Blood Clan member's blood crystal, activated void spirit patterns, and teleported to his clone's location. His clone was currently pursuing another Blood Clan Constellation with continuous furious sword energy attacks from his sword gourd, leaving the Blood Clan member in an extremely disheveled state.

When the main body arrived, he teamed up with his clone and easily killed the Blood Clan member.

At this point, the Blood Clan Constellations who had come as reinforcements were completely wiped out. Without the protection of the Constellations, the Divine Sea and True Lake Blood Clan members they brought from their own realm couldn't resist the erosion of stellar energy at all. Even before Lu Ye went out in pursuit, those Divine Sea and True Lake members had already struggled and died.

Looking around, at the original battlefield, there were large numbers of Blood Clan corpses, faces contorted in terror and despair, their bodies stiff, numbering at least several thousand.

Lu Ye returned, only collecting the blood crystals from the Constellations. As for the True Lake and Divine Sea Blood Clan members, he was too lazy to deal with them.

***

In a distant part of the starry sky, within a realm occupied by the Blood Clan.

In a grand hall, blood-colored soul lamps flickered. Each soul lamp corresponded to a Blood Clan cultivator. Under normal circumstances, these soul lamps were usually lit, signifying that the lamp's owner was alive and well.

But at this moment, large numbers of soul lamps had extinguished. The Blood Clan cultivator guarding the place watched with a pale face, his body trembling slightly.

He discovered that among these extinguished soul lamps, over twenty belonged to Constellations. This undoubtedly meant that those Constellations had all died.

Most of the soul lamps extinguished silently, but one particular lamp, before extinguishing, suddenly burst forth with a bright bloody light. Immediately after, the blood light twisted and transformed, revealing the three large characters: "Lu Yiye!"

"Trouble has come!" The Blood Clan cultivator knew the matter was grave. Although their realm was not weak, losing so many Constellations at once was an unspeakable pain. He dared not delay and quickly reported the matter.

Soon, a Blood Clan Moonlight Realm expert arrived.

After listening to the guarding cultivator's report, the gloomy-faced Blood Clan member asked, "Did the Life Blood Art reveal the three characters, 'Lu Yiye'?"

The guarding cultivator quickly replied, "It was indeed Lu Yiye; I didn't misread it."

The Moonlight Realm Blood Clan member sneered, "We've searched high and low for him, only for him to practically deliver himself!"

In recent years, the Blood Clan and Insectoids had been searching for Lu Yiye's whereabouts but had found nothing. Who would have thought that this time, one of their own Constellations would use the Life Blood Art before death to send back information.

The Divine Sea conflict in the Primordial Realm had caused heavy losses for all major Blood Clan realms, and all the highly anticipated Blood Clan descendants had died at the hands of Lu Yiye. Normally, death in such conflicts was simply that; the Blood Clan was a large race with abundant talent, and the death of a few individuals wouldn't have a major impact. However, among those Blood Clan descendants were Sacred Seeds, and the Blood Clan's Sacred Blood was extremely precious. The reason for issuing such a bounty was not merely to take Lu Ye's life, but more importantly, to reclaim the Sacred Blood.

Now that they had news of Lu Yiye, even a Moonlight Realm expert couldn't remain indifferent.

Knowing that the deceased clansmen had all gone to the Blue Jade Realm, this Moonlight Realm expert didn't hesitate and immediately shot into the sky, heading towards the Blue Jade Realm.

Half a day later, Lu Ye returned to the Blue Jade Realm. The situation on the battlefield hadn't changed much, but the protective range of the spore cloud had clearly been compressed.

Now that the reinforcements were dealt with, Lu Ye only needed to take care of the Blood Clan Constellations in the Blue Jade Realm.

Knowing he couldn't kill them all, Lu Ye simply didn't bother to waste the effort. Relying on Li Shang's ability, he silently infiltrated the Blood Sea, advanced for dozens of miles, and reached a Blood Clan Constellation who was activating the Blood Sea to fight the spore cloud. He released and then immediately retracted his sacredness, and at the same time, his long saber struck down.

The Blood Clan member died instantly, without even reacting; not even a scream was uttered.

The demise of the Constellation startled the nearby Blood Clan members. No one knew what had happened, because since invading the Blue Jade Realm, the Blood Clan hadn't suffered significant losses. Although some Divine Sea and True Lake Blood Clan members had died in clashes with the Spore and Wood Spirit races, not a single Blood Clan Constellation had perished.

Now, one had inexplicably died!

Just as the Blood Clan was still trying to understand what had happened, another Constellation's aura suddenly vanished. This was just the beginning. Over the next period, Blood Clan Constellations continuously met with mysterious deaths, with seven or eight perishing in a short span.

The remaining Constellations were all terrified, fully activating their blood arts. Logically speaking, the Blood Clan possessed extremely powerful insight and perception within the Blood Sea; any outsider who infiltrated the Blood Sea could not escape their perception.

But Lu Ye himself could activate the most authentic blood arts, so even if the Blood Clan members sensed his presence, they would only mistake him for one of their own.

As time passed, more and more Blood Clan Constellations died in battle. The remaining Blood Clan members finally realized something was wrong with Lu Ye, because wherever this individual, whom they had mistaken for a clansman, went, Constellations inexplicably died.

He gasped deeply for fresh air, his chest heaving.

Confusion, bewilderment, and various emotions surged within him.

Where was this?

Then, Shi Yu subconsciously observed his surroundings, only to become even more bewildered.

A single dorm room?

Even if he had been successfully rescued, he should be in a hospital room now.

And his body... how could it be completely unharmed?

With doubts, Shi Yu's gaze quickly swept the room, finally settling on a mirror at the head of the bed.

The mirror reflected his current appearance: around seventeen or eighteen years old, and very handsome.

But the problem was, this wasn't him!

His former self was a handsome young man in his twenties, with an extraordinary demeanor, who had been working for some time.

Now, this appearance looked like that of a high school student...

This change left Shi Yu stunned for a long time.

Please don't tell him the surgery was a success...

His body and appearance had both changed; this wasn't a matter of surgery anymore, but rather immortal arts.

He had completely become someone else!

Could it be... he had transmigrated?

Besides the mirror at the head of the bed, placed in a spot that clearly had bad feng shui, Shi Yu also found three books nearby.

Shi Yu picked them up, and their titles instantly silenced him.

"A Novice Tamer's Essential Beast Rearing Handbook""Post-Natal Care for Pet Beasts""A Guide to Appraising Heterogeneous Beast-Eared Girls"

Shi Yu: ???

The titles of the first two books were somewhat normal, but what was up with the last one?

"Cough."

Shi Yu's gaze sharpened, and he reached out, but his arm quickly stiffened.

Just as he wanted to open the third book to see what it was, a sharp pain suddenly shot through his brain, and a flood of memories surged forth.
