Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1801 - 1799: Something Out of the Ordinary

The aura of Xiang Yin and her companions was not hidden, so when they discovered their enemies, the enemies also noticed their presence, causing the Sacred Blood Summit squad to rush over as if energized.

This is the habitual mindset at play, because in past Black Abyss struggles, once the Red Talisman Society cultivators faced the Sacred Blood Summit troops in such situations, they mostly chose to flee, and even if they didn't, they mainly focused on containment.

However, what surprised this Sacred Blood Summit squad was that the enemy's reaction was quite strange this time; they did not flee, nor did they intend to scatter for containment, but instead charged straight at them.

The distance between them quickly closed; both sides had the momentum to take down each other in one go. The lead Sacred Blood Summit cultivator felt odd, but it was too late to change formations by then.

At the moment the two squads collided, a vast Blood Sea suddenly became tumultuous.

Within the Blood Sea, all the Sacred Blood Summit cultivators' expressions changed drastically, and the leader turned abruptly, glaring in a certain direction and roaring, "Zhao Bingli, how dare you betray us?"

The turmoil in the Blood Sea was not caused by the enemy, but an issue from within their own ranks, which the Sacred Blood Summit cultivators sensed clearly.

This secret technique that uses multiple cultivators together to activate Blood Techniques, subsequently merging into a Blood Sea, is a common tactic used by the Blood Race against adversaries.

Because once the Blood Sea merges, its size grows larger, its power stronger, and even Constellation Realm cultivators can play a part in such situations, providing some assistance to stronger allies.

But this jointly initiated Blood Technique also has one problem to solve, which is the suppression of saintliness.

If none of them possess saintliness, it's easy to say since no one can suppress anyone.

If there is only one Blood Race with saintliness in the squad, it's easier, and this person can oversee the Blood Sea, with others assisting.

But in the case of these Sacred Blood Summit cultivators, where everyone possesses saintliness, only the one with the strongest saintliness can oversee the Blood Sea, while others restrain their saintliness to assist.

The Saintliness Restraint Technique is the Blood Race's secret technique specifically used in such times. By activating this technique, the Blood Race can restrain their saintliness, thus avoiding mutual suppression interference.

But at the moment when this Sacred Blood Summit squad was about to engage the enemy, Zhao Bingli suddenly stopped restraining his saintliness.

Even more astonishing and bewildering to other cultivators, Zhao Bingli's saintliness was stronger than any of theirs!

This is simply unimaginable. The strength of the Sacred Blood Summit cultivators' saintliness generally relates to the duration of their time in this realm; the longer they are in this realm, the denser their saintliness becomes, as they can absorb more Blood Rain and refine more resources born from this realm.

Although Zhao Bingli's time in this realm was not the shortest, it was definitely not the longest. Many possessed stronger saintliness than him.

Thus, no one knew why his saintliness suddenly surged to such magnitude.

Only one thing was certain: Zhao Bingli's actions were undeniably a betrayal against Sacred Blood Summit.

The balance of the Blood Sea was disrupted, and in the instant of its turmoil, the Red Talisman Society squad, led by Xiang Yin and her sister, already charged forward.

The next moment, an even more intense saintliness than Zhao Bingli's spread out, making the already tumultuous Blood Sea even more fragile, collapsing with a boom!

The Sacred Blood Summit cultivators hiding in the Blood Sea revealed themselves miserably, each with a grim expression, feeling alarmed as the Red Talisman Society was already closing in, yet their mana remained suppressed...

An incense stick's time later, Hu Dequan suddenly widened his eyes, a look of disbelief on his face. Turning to Lu Ye, his lips trembled as he murmured, "Annihilation! Bro, Xiang Yin's squad completely annihilated a Sacred Blood Summit squad!"

He undoubtedly received the communication from that side.

"Understood!" Lu Ye nodded. He too had received Xiang Yin's message.

Such a result did not surprise Lu Ye.

After entering this realm for a year, he continuously honed his treasure blood, yet none remains in his body, as it all was used to subjugate Blood Servants.

Aside from Xiang Yin and the Moon Jade companions following him, several Blood Servants lie hidden on the Sacred Blood Summit side.

Today's battle was the time to use these hidden Blood Servants. Each refined a drop of his treasure blood, with Xiang Yin and her sister refining a drop and a half; in terms of pure saintliness comparison, few from Sacred Blood Summit could match them.

Hiding in shadows, the Blood Servants suddenly turned back in crucial moments, combined with Bloodline suppression, such results are not unexpected.

Hu Dequan was thrilled, for in all past Black Abyss struggles, the Red Talisman Society had never fought such an invigorating battle. Even when smaller skirmishes held an advantage, it never resulted in complete annihilation. Such an encouraging start is enough to lift spirits!

Silently celebrating, fortunately, they reached an agreement with Lu Ye's side before the battle began, choosing to trust him; otherwise, there wouldn't be such fortune. Without Lu Ye's assistance, the Red Talisman Society would likely follow the old path once more.

After a brief contemplation, Hu Dequan spoke, "Bro, I'll leave this battle to your command; whatever way you choose to fight, that's how we'll fight!"

At this point, he no longer doubted Lu Ye's resolve against Sacred Blood Summit and decided to hand over his command authority to Lu Ye, as having two voices in one team is ultimately not ideal.

After speaking, he stood up, stretched his muscles, with a posture ready to fight fervently, then dashed out of the hiding spot: "I will go kill the enemies as well!"

On the meteorite, Lu Ye watched him leave without stopping, continuing to sense the locations of the many Blood Servants, conveying one message after another, as Blood Servants from both camps precisely moved toward one another.

In another direction, another Sacred Blood Summit squad encountered the same unfortunate fate as the previous one, but this time it was led by Wang Taisheng and Zhou Ran instead of Xiang Yin and sister.

Although Wang Taisheng and Zhou Ran's saintliness were slightly inferior to Xiang Yin and sister, with a plan in mind and internal support, this battle was not difficult to win.

Time passed, and under Lu Ye's comprehensive coordination, the scattered Sacred Blood Summit squads suffered misfortunes. Whenever this happened, they were essentially doomed to annihilation.

News of this spread among the Red Talisman Society cultivators, leaving those who were used to hard times both incredulous and incredibly excited!

In previous years, they had always been on the receiving end, never imagining there would be a day they could take the initiative to strike, and each time achieving significant victories with ease.

The difference in numbers was narrowing, and the overall strength comparison was not as disproportionate anymore...

Even for a moment, all the cultivators on their side couldn't help but feel a sense of advantage.

Only Lu Ye, who was responsible for overseeing and coordinating from the rear, felt uneasy because, although the battle was progressing smoothly, the strongest opponent had yet to intervene.

Lih Tian must have arrived in this space; Lu Ye could always vaguely sense his Sun Blaze's power. Yet, what puzzled him was that Lih Tian had remained stationary since his arrival, indifferent to the losses of his subordinates.

Information from Blood Servants hidden within Sacred Blood Summit revealed that Lih Tian hadn't given any direct orders to his cultivators.

He seemed like a spectator, watching this farce from afar, unaffected by victory or defeat.

There must be something unusual, and to win this battle, Lih Tian is the key; only by killing him can it be considered a true victory. Without Lih Tian's death, even if the Sacred Blood Summit cultivators died out, it wouldn't count as a victory.

As he was pondering, suddenly fierce might erupted from one direction.

Lu Ye's expression turned solemn as he looked in that direction. Even across an unknown distance, he could see a burst of red light there.

In the sense of bloodline, in that direction, his two Blood Servants instantly disappeared without a trace.

The power of the Red Talisman!

According to information he had pried from Hu Dequan, over the years, several talisman-bearing cultivators couldn't stick to their beliefs amidst the passage of time and defected from the Red Talisman Society to join the Sacred Blood Summit.

Yet after numerous battles, only one of these individuals remained alive today.

Originally, there were two...

However, the other was killed by Lu Ye at Snowy Peak. This Red Talisman was undoubtedly a killing weapon for any side and wasn't used lightly.

However, at this moment, the power of the Red Talisman was activated, indicating that the talisman holder had been forced into a desperate situation.

His two Blood Servants suffered terrible fates.

Soon, news came back from the battlefield, indicating that not only were his two Blood Servants killed by the Red Talisman, but also three from the Red Talisman Society, all in the Moon Jade Realm.

Since the battle began, it was the first time they suffered losses; five people at once, a significant loss.

But the enemy was not faring well either; the enemy's squad had been completely wiped out, which counted as revenge.

Lu Ye pondered for a moment and sent out a message: "Fellow Daoist, you can act now, but be cautious!"

In another direction, Yang Ling, who had been lurking there, conserving strength and energy, suddenly opened his eyes, checked the message from the audio talisman, and without responding, stood tall and dashed forward.

Toward the direction where Lih Tian was situated.

In previous Black Abyss confrontations, it was always Yang Ling who restrained Lih Tian, as he was the only one on the Red Talisman Society side with two Red Talismans, one for attack and one for defense!

Years of nurturing, any single Red Talisman activated wouldn't be inferior to a Sun Blaze strike, so even if the Cultivation Realm was much lower, it was still manageable to keep Lih Tian in check.

Yang Ling was well familiar with this.

This time was no exception.

Lu Ye was very concerned about the situation with Lih Tian and wanted to know what he was doing at the moment, but he couldn't personally investigate because if he faced Lih Tian, he might expose his own powerful saintliness under the threat from his opponent.

Before truly confronting Lih Tian, Lu Ye didn't want to reveal this, so he could only trouble Yang Ling to make a trip.
