724. Chapter 722: Three United as One
He knew that if he didn't end the battle quickly, the situation might reverse.
Thus he relied on the Netherworld Blade to unleash a torrential blade aura, trying to suppress Su Liyan.
Their techniques constantly changed, each movement full of power and speed.
They moved through the battlefield, the air filled with the scent of sword qi and frost.
The cultivators watching from the sidelines stared unblinking at this match that might change the situation.
They marveled at the extraordinary strength displayed by Zi Xi'er and Su Liyan, and worried for Lu Yuan being drawn into this battle.
"This Zi Xi'er is so strong!"
"How could she have such great power?" someone exclaimed.
"It seems we underestimated her before."
"Another cultivator said solemnly, 'The Youhun Sect originally thought they could win easily, but they didn't expect to encounter such an unbelievable opponent.'"
Zi Xi'er gave a cold smile, "If that's the case, then let us experience the might of the Blood Moon Sect."
They moved as fast as lightning, leaving an afterimage in the air.
Hong Lietian felt that powerful pressure, his expression turning solemn.
He used his mastered Five Elements Escape Technique and Heavenly Gang Big Dipper Formation to create a radiant formation.
Meanwhile, Lu Yuan tightly gripped his Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword, focused his mind and gathered his qi, waiting for the best moment.
Zi Xi'er and Su Liyan felt the surging power from nearby, and they both turned and lunged toward Lu Yuan.
Each collision caused an earth-shaking roar, bringing ever-changing scenes.
They wore blood-red robes, indeed Nascent Soul Stage cultivators of the Blood Moon Sect.
"Hmph, are you guys being biased?"
Everyone's hearts were filled with anxiety, full of anticipation and worry for Lu Yuan and Su Liyan's future.
The battle entered a white-hot stage, with various immortal arts' light shining and reflecting off each other in the valley.
He realized this was his opportunity; in this vortex he had to face a major turning point that could decide their fate.
"How could Blood Moon Sect disciples lose to you newbies!" the voice was full of arrogance and provocation.
The three quickly united, forming an impregnable formation.
And in the battle, Lu Yuan felt a powerful force surging within his body.
He knew that only by giving his all could he possibly turn the tide.
The two turned and saw two young cultivators walking over from not far away.
As soon as the words fell, the two Nascent Soul Stage cultivators launched their attack.
They had just gone through a fierce battle with the Youhun Sect's Hong Lietian, when suddenly a voice came.
On the outskirts of the Xinan Mountains, on a barren stretch of land, Lu Yuan and Zi Xi'er stood together, their bodies reeking of battle.
Seeing Su Liyan and Hong Lietian's battle intensify, Lu Yuan decided to intervene and lend a hand.
Lu Yuan focused his mind and gathered his qi; his Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword emitted a brilliant light.
Relying on profound immortal arts and keen observation, he successfully dodged the enemy's fierce attack and counterattacked.
Zi Xi'er wielded the Ice Crystal Long Whip, condensing cold into frost flowers, fighting the opponent to a standstill.
The battle raged fiercely, with both sides' techniques constantly colliding, leaving strings of bright sparks and ice crystals in the air.
The surrounding cultivators were drawn over, stopping to watch.
They had their attention captured by the battle, anxiously awaiting the outcome with uneasy hearts.
After a fierce battle, Lu Yuan and Zi Xi'er felt the strong pressure emanating from the two Blood Moon Sect cultivators.
They knew that if they continued fighting, it could cause serious injury or even endanger their lives.
Lu Yuan's eyes flashed, and he tightly gripped his Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword.
He knew it was time to end this battle.
He gathered all his strength and unleashed the Heavenly Gang Big Dipper Formation.
Instantly, a dazzling light enveloped the entire battlefield.
Zi Xi'er also felt the powerful force released by Lu Yuan.
She immediately understood that there was no need to continue fighting any longer.
The two Blood Moon Sect cultivators also noticed the change in situation, stopped their attacks, and retreated to Lu Yuan and Zi Xi'er's side.
This battle, which could have sparked a life-and-death duel, avoided tragedy at the last moment.
After the battle, Lu Yuan and Zi Xi'er found the corpse of a rare spirit beast on the battlefield.
It was a Flame Phoenix, a rare spirit beast of the Immortal Realm.
Lu Yuan immediately sprang into action, gathering the spirit beast's materials.
He knew these materials were extremely valuable for making pills.
As Lu Yuan continuously gathered materials, the surrounding cultivators began to show greedy and envious looks.
They longed to possess this precious spiritual material, but could not obtain it as easily as Lu Yuan could.
Deep within the forests of the Xinan Mountains, Lu Yuan and Zi Xi'er traveled along a narrow path.
The vegetation was lush; sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting mottled light and shadow on them.
Suddenly, they smelled a tempting fragrance.
The two exchanged a smile and followed the scent to a secluded spot.
There, a bonfire burned, with chunks of meat roasting on it.
"What kind of meat is this? It looks delicious!"
Zi Xi'er couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.
Lu Yuan approached the campfire and used his finger to test the meat's temperature.
"It should be spirit beast meat." He said softly.
Zi Xi'er lifted her head in surprise, "Spirit beast meat?"
"That's quite precious!"
"How could we encounter it here?"
Lu Yuan was also somewhat puzzled, but more so curious.
He picked up a piece of spirit beast meat and tasted it, immediately closing his eyes in satisfaction.
"Delicious!"
"Moreover, I feel a strange power surging through my body."
Zi Xi'er also couldn't resist taking a bite, and then she couldn't stop eating.
"You're right, this spirit beast meat is not only incredibly delicious, it also enhances one's physique."
While enjoying the spirit beast meat, Lu Yuan and Zi Xi'er felt their strength increase.
They sensed that their cultivation was steadily rising, and their energy and stamina markedly increased.
While the two were resting, they suddenly heard the sound of leaves being crushed.
They warily looked toward the source of the sound and saw three passing cultivators walking toward the campfire.
"Hey, you're here!"
One of the cultivators said, "We got lost and have been wandering in this dense forest for several days."
Another cultivator covered his stomach and laughed, "Wow! It smells really good!"
"What are you roasting?"
"Spirit beast meat."
Lu Yuan answered without hesitation.
The three cultivators simultaneously opened their mouths wide, their eyes flashing with greedy light.
They showed great surprise and envy toward Lu Yuan and Zi Xi'er.
"Could you share the spirit beast meat with us?" one cultivator pleaded.
Lu Yuan and Zi Xi'er glanced at each other and nodded without hesitation. (End of chapter)
