Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1836 - 1834: The Strongest Support

As the battle of Sun Blaze raged on, Lu Ye silently locked his mind onto a Blood Race Sun Blaze, attempting to use the Blood Termination World's reserves to suppress it, just as he had once suppressed an Insect Race Sun Blaze within the Core World. If he could achieve this, all six Blood Race Sun Blazes would meet their end here.

But he quickly realized he was overthinking it…

He was able to draw upon the reserves of the Core World to suppress the Insect Race Sun Blaze because he had refined the core origin at that time.

But now it's different; even though he could mobilize the entire domain through the power of the Blood Ancestor's treasure blood, it was impossible to precisely control the reserves of the Blood Termination World to suppress the Blood Race Sun Blaze. Unless he also refined the origin of the Blood Termination World.

The Blood Termination World certainly has an origin, but not all domain origins can be refined. Some domain origins are scattered throughout every corner of the domain, becoming one with it and cannot be refined.

Only something like the previous core origin has the potential to be refined.

From this perspective, the origin of the Nine Provinces could also be refined, though Lu Ye never considered this because refining the origin of Nine Provinces would be akin to refining Number Nine…

Unable to leverage the reserves of the Blood Termination World to suppress the formidable enemy, Lu Ye had to take action himself.

Having halted at the South Mount Fangcun point within the Blood Termination World from the collision, the Talent Tree Avatar suddenly flashed, and with a surge of mana, the patterns underfoot were traced and fitted together. In the blink of an eye, a Void Spirit Rune was formed.

In those runes, ripples surged as Lu Ye took a step forward.

Retrieving the Talent Tree Avatar with a raise of his hand, Lu Ye lifted his gaze towards the nearest Sun Blaze battlefield. On that side, a turbulent Blood Sea roared, concealing a Blood Race Sun Blaze.

Contesting it was none other than Chen Xuanhai from the Eastern Region. At this very moment, he wielded a talisman sword, flitting and leaping, launching waves of Sword Qi at the enormous Blood Sea.

The Blood Sea relentlessly pursued, attempting to engulf Chen Xuanhai, but he evaded it time and again. Of course, he understood that battling the Blood Race required caution, and recklessly entering the opponent's Blood Sea was perilous.

Currently, with the advantage on their side, Chen Xuanhai was in no hurry. He only needed to prolong the fight until the opponent grew anxious for an opportunity, at which point they would inevitably expose a flaw.

Just at that moment, Chen Xuanhai's expression shifted. Dodging another attack, he turned toward a specific direction, where an inconspicuous weapon control suddenly flew towards him.

Chen Xuanhai snatched the weapon control into his grasp!

"Got you!" the Blood Race Sun Blaze shouted fiercely, as the Blood Sea suddenly swelled, and in an instant, the unprepared Chen Xuanhai was enveloped within it.

Ecstatic with having seized the opportunity, the Blood Race Sun Blaze had never anticipated such a swift turn of events. Just as he was about to launch an attack on Chen Xuanhai, he suddenly sensed a surge of Mana from a Moon Jade Mid-Stage within the Blood Sea.

This left him puzzled, unsure of the situation. Extending his mind, he quickly located the source of the mana surge.

Surprisingly, it was the dirk weapon control grasped in Chen Xuanhai's hand…

Despite recognizing the trap, the Blood Race Sun Blaze didn't take it too seriously. After all, even with a trap, the Mana surge of a Moon Jade Mid-Stage couldn't pose much of a threat to him.

Utilizing the concealment of the Blood Sea, the Sun Blaze effortlessly closed in behind Chen Xuanhai, his long, blood-red nails glinting coldly. He raised them high, poised to unleash a lethal strike.

Just then, he abruptly noticed a flash on the weapon control in Chen Xuanhai's hand, revealing a mysterious spirit rune. Soon after, a figure appeared out of nowhere.

It was a young human, whose mana fluctuations matched precisely with those on the weapon control, confirming that he was its owner.

The Blood Race Sun Blaze was baffled by how the opponent managed to get there, as he didn't detect any sign of the Blood Sea being breached, and yet this Moon Jade Mid-Stage had appeared so bizarrely.

Quietly speculating that the opponent might have mastered some exquisite transposition technique... but what of it? Daring to trespass into his Blood Sea was a sure path to death.

With this thought, he struck without mercy.

Lu Ye suddenly lifted his head, gazing intently at the position of the Blood Race Sun Blaze.

Their eyes met, and Lu Ye's pupils abruptly turned blood-red, with countless intricate and exquisite lines merging and interlinking, forming an exceedingly complex and mysterious pattern upon his irises.

"Ah!" the Blood Race Sun Blaze cried out in shock. In an instant, the Moon Jade Mid-Stage figure nearby soared, transforming into a towering giant overlooking him. He could even feel an inherent oppression from those blood-red pupils, filling him with terror and unease. In that instant, all the blood within him seemed to halt its flow.

His attacking momentum abruptly faltered.

The next moment brought an even more inscrutable occurrence to the Blood Race Sun Blaze. The Moon Jade Mid-Stage suddenly erupted with terrifying and intense saintliness. Under such natural suppression, his mana became significantly sluggish, his aura diminished, and his attack, already weakened by the Blood Eye's impact, suddenly became feeble and powerless.

Chen Xuanhai also turned at that moment, his talisman sword seeming to fall lightly yet unleashing the full force of his strength.

He couldn't help but frown, for with this strike, it felt as though he wasn't slashing at a Sun Blaze, with the opponent's defenses proving weak and brittle aside from their physical resilience, effortlessly broken through by him.

This sword directly sliced the opponent's body into two halves.

The Blood Race Sun Blaze stared wide-eyed, not knowing how he died until the end, merely gazing at Lu Ye in horror, opening his mouth as if wanting to say something, but Chen Xuanhai would not give him the chance; with a rise of his talisman sword, he dismembered him as effortlessly as cutting through tofu.

The aura of Sun Blaze was obliterated, and the vast Blood Sea crumbled, turning into a bloody rain falling down.

"Well done!" praised Chen Xuanhai, grabbing Lu Ye's arm and dashing towards the next battlefield.

He knew clearly that the ease of slaying an enemy Sun Blaze wasn't because he had gotten stronger, but because the enemy had weakened, all due to Lu Ye's methods.

For the Blood Race, their bloodline is truly both their blessing and curse. Chen Xuanhai could almost foresee the miserable future the Blood Race would endure in the stellar space with an anomaly like Lu Ye around. Any Blood Race unfortunate enough to encounter him was doomed to a grim fate.

At this moment, Lu Ye was reflecting on the moments just passed.

Utilizing the Blood Eye Spirit Runes on the Blood Race Sun Blaze was a spur-of-the-moment decision, as he wanted to see if these runes had any special effects against the Blood Race, given their origin from the Blood Ancestor.

To his surprise, it turned out to be unexpectedly effective.

Based on his prior understanding, the function of the Blood Eye Spirit Runes was a sort of intangible psyche attack, which strictly speaking, was a kind of divine runes.

Its purpose was to cause illusions when striking an enemy's psyche, thereby affecting the enemy's decisions during combat – a means of auxiliary engagement in struggle.

Logically speaking, using Blood Eye Spirit Runes on a Sun Blaze should yield no effect because the opponent's Divine Soul Power far exceeded his, and their sheer spiritual defenses should be enough to negate the effects of Blood Eye Spirit Runes.

Yet the aforementioned Blood Race Sun Blaze was visibly affected, although not drastically, still enough to be fatal.

This likely stems from the fact that the Blood Eye Spirit Runes originate from the Blood Ancestor, and since the Blood Race are descendants of the Blood Ancestor, the powers from the Blood Ancestor exhibited on them have a certain degree of extraordinary effectiveness.

Maybe he could find Xiang Yin and her sister to experiment later; being original Blood Race and his Blood Servants, the feedback from them would no doubt be more specific.

As these thoughts flashed across his mind, Chen Xuanhai had already led him to the second Sun Blaze battlefield, where Weng Xiong from the Western Region was battling a Blood Race Sun Blaze.

When Chen Xuanhai and Lu Ye arrived, Weng Xiong was already engaged in direct combat within the Blood Sea, embroiled in a fierce battle with the Blood Race, clearly at a disadvantage but with surging momentum.

Sensing Chen Xuanhai's arrival, the Blood Race Sun Blaze panicked. In a one-on-one, with the power of the Blood Sea, he could gain the upper hand, but in a two-on-one, his confidence waned. He hoped to shake off Weng Xiong, but the latter refused to let him go, entangling him tenaciously.

Once Chen Xuanhai joined in, the Blood Race Sun Blaze immediately fell into a disadvantage; the dense Blood Sea churned, blood Qi evaporating.

Lu Ye seized an opportunity, invoking his saintliness, causing the Blood Race Sun Blaze to cry out in shock, finally understanding how his companion had perished.

He also realized why their side sustained such heavy casualties during the previous invasion of Mount Fangcun.

An enemy harboring such a terrifying saintliness had remained hidden right amidst them, unbeknownst to the Blood Race – how utterly ironic!

The second Blood Race Sun Blaze soon met his demise...

The Blood Sea collapsed, revealing the figures of Chen Xuanhai, Weng Xiong, and Lu Ye.

Lu Ye turned to look around but could no longer see any trace of Blood Race Sun Blaze, nor even of the Dwarf Race's Sun Blaze.

He understood that the Blood Race Sun Blaze must have fled and that the Dwarf Race was likely in pursuit.

It was only reasonable, with two of the six Blood Race Sun Blaze already dead, and with the remaining alive ones seeing their companions die so inexplicably and suddenly.

They could easily infer that the Dwarf Race possessed a method capable of quickly eliminating their Sun Blaze.

The dread of unknown dangers and a survival instinct dictated that the four remaining Sun Blaze couldn't possibly wait around to die. They hadn't fled earlier because this domain was where they had been nurtured. As long as there was a sliver of hope, they wouldn't flee.

But now, they had no choice but to run. Staying meant they'd follow their companions' tragic fate, and only a fool would stay put to await death.

"Run? Not a single one should think of escaping!" Weng Xiong said indignantly, rushing off in one direction to ensure he missed not one Blood Race member.

Chen Xuanhai swiftly scanned his Mental Consciousness and took off with Lu Ye in another direction to pursue.

Lu Ye did not try to stop him, though he felt the chances of catching them were slim, for the Blood Race were exceptionally skilled at escaping, especially the Sun Blaze Blood Race. With a single-minded focus on fleeing during an early stage, the Dwarf Race had very few methods to counter this.
