Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1824 - 1822: The Colossal Armor

Mobilize the big sects of the Nine Provinces to make early preparations and announce to the human race of the Blood Refinement World that a grand migration has begun.

The entire process proceeded without any resistance and lasted for three months before it concluded.

Migrating from the Blood Refinement World to the Nine Provinces places the human race originally living in the Blood Refinement World into a more favorable environment. Although they may feel unfamiliar in the short term, it's not a significant problem. After one or two generations, their descendants will become natives of the Nine Provinces, and will surely integrate completely.

Lu Ye explored the entire Blood Refinement World and confirmed that no other living beings remained before he returned to Jade Pillar Peak and delved into the underground chamber.

Having conducted previous investigations, Lu Ye knew that once he initiated action, it would definitely trigger that invisible imprisonment. Previously concerned about the human race of the Blood Refinement World, now without such concern, he boldly proceeded.

As the imprisonment was triggered, the feeling of turbulence spread again, quickly encompassing the entire Blood Refinement World.

Lu Ye ignored it and directly activated the Talent Tree's power, sending invisible roots to wrap around the barrier in front, beginning the refinement process.

According to his hypothesis, this imprisonment was left by a powerful being who slew the Blood Ancestor, intended to seal a drop of treasure blood belonging to the Blood Ancestor. From this point of view, even the unknown being had no effective method against the treasure blood of the Blood Ancestor, resorting only to this means to let the power of the treasure blood slowly dissipate.

Refining the barrier did not take Lu Ye too long. After all, this entity had existed for countless years, and its power had long been diminished. In just ten days, the barrier completely vanished.

Throughout the process, the Blood Refinement World was in almost constant turmoil, with nearly all the structures left by the human race collapsing. It's imaginable that if not for the preemptive migration of the human race to the Nine Provinces, countless innocent casualties would have occurred.

During the refinement process, Lu Ye also observed the imprisonment, noting the traces of spirit runes on it, which proved quite rewarding.

Ten days later, as the barrier fully disappeared, Lu Ye flashed into the heart that had been opened and grabbed the treasure blood in his hand, continuing to activate the power of the Talent Tree, relentlessly refining it.

Despite previous guesses, it was only when the actual refinement began that Lu Ye discovered that this drop of treasure blood was significantly damaged compared to the one he had refined in the Core World. Strictly speaking, this second drop of treasure blood was quite incomplete.

In comparison, the second drop of treasure blood did not even possess one-tenth the power of the previous drop.

Even so, it ultimately was treasure blood, and its refinement led to a significant enhancement in saintliness.

As time passed and the power of the treasure blood gradually diminished, Lu Ye began to feel an extremely peculiar sensation. This feeling was quite extraordinary; his entire perception seemed to scatter, and his self-awareness became fuzzy. Taking its place was another extremely unique perception, as if he had suddenly donned a heavy armor, feeling a peculiar sense of oppression.

Lu Ye did not interrupt this sensation, maintaining it continuously as he wanted to understand what was happening.

Gradually, his perception radiated widely, giving him a false impression that he had suddenly grown larger.

He tried to move his limbs, only to be shocked by the realization that he couldn't sense them at all!

He attempted to turn his head and look around, but couldn't even perceive the existence of his own head!

Currently, it seemed that the only thing he could perceive was an overwhelmingly heavy body.

Startled, Lu Ye abruptly opened his eyes, and that peculiar feeling vanished without a trace in an instant.

He looked down to check himself, finding his limbs intact and touching his neck, noting that his head was still there.

The second drop of treasure blood had already been completely refined, and Lu Ye still sat at the cleft of the Blood Ancestor's heart, showing a contemplative expression.

He vaguely understood what had happened before, but the matter itself was indeed strange, even with his knowledge and experience it was somewhat difficult to imagine.

Reflecting on the previous sensation, Lu Ye again closed his eyes to concentrate.

Soon he reentered that peculiar feeling, which seemingly posed no great difficulty to him at present.

This undoubtedly had to do with his refinement of the Blood Ancestor's treasure blood.

His body felt incomparably heavy, indeed unable to sense his limbs and head, as if he had donned an immensely cumbersome armor, suffocating him with its repressive weight.

Yet he was still in a state of having intact limbs; the odd feeling emerged purely because his mind and spirit had radiated throughout the Blood Refinement World.

The heavy armor overlaying his body was indeed the Blood Refinement World itself, hence causing Lu Ye to feel as if his limbs and head had entirely disappeared.

This was because the Blood Ancestor's body had been severed of its head and limbs.

Now, the Blood Refinement World resembled a colossal piece of cover armor; Lu Ye draped it over himself, even feeling that he could command the Blood Ancestor's remnants, truly using it like cover armor. As for what kind of power it could wield when commanded, it was unknown, but being the Blood Ancestor's remnants, the quality was undoubtedly high.

Lu Ye understood that this transformation resulted from his refinement of the treasure blood; the treasure blood was the Blood Ancestor's treasure blood, and the Blood Refinement World was the Blood Ancestor's remnant body, tightly bound in relation. Upon refining the treasure blood, he naturally acquired a degree of control over the Blood Ancestor's remnants.

Sinking his mind, Lu Ye attempted to control the Blood Refinement World.

In an instant, the entire world shook, a much more terrifying commotion than when he previously broke through the layer of imprisonment, erupting from various parts of the Blood Refinement World.

Gigantic spirit mountaintops collapsed one by one, mountains and rivers cracked open, torrents swept in all directions, and in the vast Empyrean Sea, the crimson waters boiled, with waves reaching hundreds of feet high in a windless expanse!

An apocalyptic scene unfolded.

If there was still a chance of survival for the human race in the Blood Refinement World when he broke through the imprisonment earlier, now, with this attempt, no living creature could continue to survive here.

If anyone stood in the stellar space observing the Blood Refinement World, they would notice the domain quivering incessantly.

After a whole half-day, this terrifying upheaval gradually subsided.

At the crevice of the heart, Lu Ye furrowed his brow, realizing that with his current power, controlling the Blood Refinement World seemed somewhat forced…

This extremely heavy armor was something he couldn't support.

This was completely different from when he harnessed the Core World, which was not inferior in size to the Blood Refinement World, even slightly larger. However, because he had refined the origin of the core, harnessing it was effortless; he only needed to exert a small part of his own strength, mostly mobilizing the foundational strength of the Core World.

The Blood Refinement World was different. Even though he had refined the treasure blood of the Blood Ancestor, he couldn't achieve the same feat because, strictly speaking, he wasn't the master of the Blood Refinement World but only had the potential to harness it.

He didn't continue with the attempt, feeling that to harness the Blood Refinement World with his own strength, he would at least need to advance to Sun Blaze to have hope.

And even if he did manage to harness it, it seemed like it wouldn't be of much use?

He could armor himself with the cover armor like the Dragon Throne to fight against enemies, but he couldn't possibly armor an entire domain to fight. This thing had no head, no hands or feet, and couldn't exert any significant destructive power.

Therefore, further attempts were unnecessary. However, before giving up, Lu Ye suddenly came up with an idea.

If he couldn't harness the Blood Refinement World by himself, what if he supplemented it with the Treasure Blood Avatar?

By placing his Treasure Blood Avatar in various parts of the Blood Refinement World and exerting force together, he wondered what change this might bring.

Yet, this couldn't be attempted for the time being, as ever since returning to the Nine Provinces from harnessing the Core World, he had been busy, only previously condensing two drops during the human race migration in the Blood Refinement World.

Now, without any pressing matters, he decided to spend some time condensing his own treasure blood.

Moreover, he had a feeling that after refining the treasure blood of the Blood Ancestor, the amount of treasure blood he could reserve had significantly increased.

Not in a hurry to go to the All Phenomena Ocean for now, since Mount Fangcun had only just settled, Lu Ye planned to stay in the Nine Provinces for a while longer and set off for the All Phenomena Ocean once everything had stabilized.

Thinking it over, Lu Ye leaped out, left the Blood Refinement World, and headed straight for Mount Fangcun.

The promises Su Yuqing made back then hadn't yet been fulfilled. Now that the Core World had long been sorted out, even the East had been integrated. Surely, she couldn't go back on her word.

There had been significant changes recently in the Nine Provinces.

Now, the beings residing within the Nine Provinces were no longer just humans; it was common to see Flower Race, Wood Spirit Race, or Spore Race cultivators traversing the Nine Provinces. Even the Dwarf Race had gradually started interacting with the cultivators of the Nine Provinces. After all, they would be neighboring each other in the future, and with Lu Ye's connection, there was a natural sense of closeness between them.

The Nine Provinces cultivators benefited immensely from this; whether it was the Alchemy from the Flower Race or the talisman-making techniques from the Dwarf Race, these practices had sparked a craze within the Nine Provinces.

Though due to their own bloodline limitations, the Nine Provinces human race couldn't surpass the Flower Race in Alchemy, nor create Spirit Talismans comparable to those made by the Dwarf Race, these foreign practices evidently enhanced cultivators.

Previously, Lu Ye brought back a vast amount of resources from the All Phenomena Ocean, allowing cultivators to practice without worries. With the Flower World now allied to the Nine Provinces, its foundation had been greatly elevated.

Everything was thriving, developing in a positive direction.

One day, on Immortal Spirit Peak, within Su Yuqing's bedchamber, while Lu Ye was condensing his treasure blood, Su Yuqing's voice suddenly echoed in his ear: "Lu Ye, your Blood Servant is looking for you, outside the domain!" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Evidently, Su Yuqing, who didn't know where she was, sensed something and specifically transmitted the message to notify him.

Lu Ye opened his eyes, paused his treasure blood condensation, and with a flicker, left the bedchamber.

Xiang Yin and sister wouldn't disturb him without a reason; seeking him out at Mount Fangcun definitely meant something significant had occurred.

Moments later, outside Mount Fangcun, Lu Ye met the waiting Xiang Yin and sister.

"Venerable Lord, a message has come from the Governor's Hall, requesting you to visit the Insect Path. It is said there have been some changes there."
