Chapter 2061: Chapter 2059: Blood Jade No More
The chaos inside Horizon Pavilion only lasted for ten short breaths before it ceased. The Blood Race outside, though aware of the powerful fluctuations of Mana within, didn’t dare barge in rashly. Not until the entire Horizon Pavilion shattered and many unfamiliar figures burst out from within did the Blood Race guards outside realize they were powerless to resist.
Woo Qimo personally escorted the captured Shilong, and, with the cooperation of Lu Ye’s true body and Talent Tree Avatar, used the Void Spirit Runes to send him into the Western Region’s Mount Fangcun!
Once there, with Lu Ye’s Talent Tree Avatar seated in town to guard, the heavily wounded Shilong no longer had any chance of escape.
The battle in the Blood Jade World had not yet ended. The Blood Race here at Horizon Pavilion were quickly slaughtered to the last, and the many Dwarf Race Sun Blaze cultivators scattered in all directions, each choosing a position to charge out from. Wherever they passed, rivers of blood flowed.
Not only that, amidst the ruins of Horizon Pavilion, Lu Ye maintained a gigantic Void Spirit Rune. Through that Void Spirit Rune, Dwarf Race cultivators kept arriving as reinforcements, then, in accordance with the teams they had formed previously, they fanned out in all directions!
Today was the day of Blood Jade’s destruction!
Ma Shangsi and the few Blood Servants newly taken in by Lu Ye were not idle either. Though they were of Blood Race origin, since they had now fallen under Lu Ye’s command, they could only act according to his will. Besides, the Blood Race themselves were never a benevolent lot; this was nothing more than the victor king, the defeated captive.
The entire domain fell into chaos in an extremely short time.
Aside from a small number of lucky Blood Race cultivators who sensed something wrong and fled into the stellar space, none of the rest had any hope of survival.
The Dwarf Race would show no mercy when dealing with the Blood Race, nor would they care about accusations of bullying the weak. From the standpoint of the Dwarf Race, all Blood Race were damned.
At this time, Lu Ye had already arrived at a certain place within the Blood Jade World.
The entire Blood Jade World was similar to the Blood Termination World. If the Blood Termination World was transformed from the Blood Ancestor’s left arm, then the Blood Jade World was the Blood Ancestor’s right arm.
Thus, the overall structures of the two great domains were basically the same, differing only in minor details.
The war within the domain no longer required his effort. The Blood Race Sun Blaze had all perished, and the Dwarf Race was destined to win a great victory.
What he needed to consider now was reenacting what happened back then, having the Western Region’s Mount Fangcun carry the Blood Jade World back to the Nine Provinces.
Having done this once already, doing it a second time was certainly not difficult for him.
The place he was now could be regarded as the crook of the right arm, a nodal point of the Blood Ancestor’s right arm, and also the nodal point of the entire domain.
Standing at such a position, Lu Ye clearly felt his connection with the Blood Jade World become much more intimate.
He immediately understood that he had found the right place. Following that faint sense of resonance, he employed his methods and kept descending deeper underground!
After spending half a day, Lu Ye finally reached a certain position underground. Upon arriving here, his connection with the Blood Jade World tightened once more.
This place was undoubtedly one of the Blood Ancestor’s spiritual orifices!
Lu Ye sat cross-legged there and sank his psyche. Very soon, his vast spirit sense took this spiritual orifice as its origin and spread out to cover the entire domain.
Across the stellar space, only Lu Ye, who had once refined the Blood Ancestor’s treasure blood, could accomplish such a thing. Even a Blood Race being like Saintly Venerable Jiuw Tian did not possess such qualification.
In a blur, Lu Ye felt his body become incomparably heavy. A familiar sensation surged up again, as if a thick, weighted cover armor had been strapped over his body.
He saw the Blood Jade World plunged into an abyss of water and fire, countless Blood Race fleeing in panic, and numerous Dwarf Race cultivators slaughtering wantonly.
He saw his few Blood Servants, following his orders, unstoppable wherever they went.
And many Blood Slaves, terrified and at a loss...
The cleansing of the Blood Jade World took only a few days. Though the domain was not small, with so many Dwarf Race Sun Blaze taking action this time, in the face of such an absolute difference in strength, the Blood Race were fundamentally incapable of any resistance.
A few days later, once everything had settled, there were no Blood Race remaining within the domain aside from Lu Ye’s few Blood Servants. However, many Blood Slaves who had been enslaved by the Blood Race still remained, all of them now panic-stricken and not knowing what to do.
Under the control of the Talent Tree Avatar, the Western Region’s Mount Fangcun had already arrived at a suitable position.
Where Lu Ye’s true body was, he reached out and grabbed, and a several-zhang-long staff appeared in his hand.
This was the ancestral artifact seized from the Blood Termination World. With this ancestral artifact, Lu Ye had been able to better mobilize the Blood Termination World back then; he wasn’t sure if it could be used here.
He might as well give it a try.
With the ancestral artifact in hand, he urged his Mana, and Lu Ye’s brows lifted.
It worked!
Because the weight pressing upon his body clearly lessened by a good amount, and under Lu Ye’s manipulation, the entire Blood Jade World began to tremble.
The massive right arm’s front end, with its six fingers, slowly opened and then gradually closed, gripping the Western Region’s Mount Fangcun, which had already arrived, within its palm.
Out in the stellar space, the Dwarf Race Sun Blaze cultivators had gathered together, silently watching this scene.
"Even though I’ve seen it once before, seeing it again today still feels shocking." Zhang Kun sighed. It was hard to imagine just how strong the Blood Ancestor had been in those years, and how such a powerful existence had ended up being slain by the Dwarf Race’s forebears, even its corpse torn into pieces.
Compared to the might of their ancestors, even though they had now all stepped into the Sun Blaze Realm, they still feared they couldn’t reach even one ten‑thousandth of that power.
On the side of the Talent Tree Avatar, the isolation of the Western Region’s Mount Fangcun had been lifted; thus, the Western Region was once again drawn by the core and swept toward the depths of the stellar space, driving the movement of the Blood Jade World along with it.
It was just that, because they had previously passed through an Insect Path to get here, on the predetermined route the Western Region would probably need a few more years before it could return to the Nine Provinces.
But compared to the gains, a wait of a few years was still worth it.
From this day on, there would no longer be a Blood Jade World in this star system.
Once everything had settled and the dust had fallen, a day later, many powerful figures gathered in the Western Region’s Mount Fangcun, and Lu Ye had already returned.
"There were quite a few Blood Slaves in the Blood Jade World. They’ve all been relocated into the main body’s Mount Fangcun, but they’ve been enslaved by the Blood Race for generations, their true natures long since worn away. It may take several generations before they slowly recover their sense of self." Ran Dongsheng reported the current situation.
As for the Blood Race, the Dwarf Race would show no mercy, but those enslaved Blood Slaves were also pitiful. If they were left unattended, during the migration of the Blood Jade World, very few of these low‑strength Blood Slaves might survive. After all, when such a vast domain migrated through the stellar space, it would cause drastic changes to the domain’s environment.
Relocating them into the Western Region’s Mount Fangcun for resettlement was the only option.
This was also a consensus shared by all the Sun Blaze experts.
Once the Western Region reached the Nine Provinces, these Blood Slaves could be sent to the Nine Provinces for proper placement.
"How is the situation with Shilong?" Lu Ye turned his head toward Xsu Pu, who had come from the Southern Region as support. After Shilong had been sent over, it was Xsu Pu who had joined hands with Xia Yingyue to interrogate him, though Xsu Pu was the main one. He had previously learned some methods of severe torture, and they happened to be of use this time.
The other Sun Blaze cultivators also looked over. Although, through Lu Ye’s Talent Tree Avatar, they had already obtained much information from the Horizon Pavilion council, there were many unclear points in that information. If they could get more accurate details from Shilong’s own mouth, so much the better.
Xsu Pu shook his head. "Shilong truly doesn’t know much. Everything he knows was told to him by the Insect Race High Priest. He had never concealed anything from the Blood Race Sun Blaze cultivators before."
After several days of torment, Shilong’s oil was exhausted and his lamp was dry; even his psyche was nearly shattered. Under such methods, Xsu Pu was convinced Shilong could not have hidden anything.
All the Sun Blaze cultivators frowned.
Why was the coming of the grand trend an opportunity for the Insect and Blood Races? Why was it that only the Insect Race High Priest could sense this grand trend? Why couldn’t other powerhouses do so?
There were many things they couldn’t figure out, and there was nowhere to find someone to ask.
But what couldn’t be denied was that the stellar space had indeed undergone some changes; the increased activity of stellar space spirit energy was only the most basic of them.
"Junior Brother Lu, the All Phenomena Ocean is a place where fish and dragons mingle, with frequent exchanges with various star systems, and it’s convenient to make contact. On this matter, we may need you to put in some extra effort." Chen Xuanhai turned his head to look at Lu Ye.
Lu Ye nodded slightly. "I had the same thought. Once I return to the All Phenomena Ocean this time, I’ll spread this news and see if anyone knows anything."
Chen Xuanhai nodded. "This matter is not urgent. The Insect Race said that in the short term it will be several decades, in the long term a hundred years, so we still have time to respond."
Zhang Kun said, "On its way, the Western Region will pass through quite a few star systems. When the time comes, let’s see if we can find opportunities to visit some of the larger star systems and investigate the situation."
"In fact, the best way is still to make a trip to the Insect Emperor World, seize that Insect Race High Priest, and question him face to face."
"The Insect Emperor World..." Chen Xuanhai slowly shook his head. "That’s not a place one can trespass on lightly."
Seeing his deeply reserved look, Lu Ye couldn’t help but grow curious. "What’s so special about the Insect Emperor World?"
After roaming the stellar space for so many years, his knowledge and experience had indeed grown greatly, but there were still some things he wasn’t very familiar with, such as this Insect Emperor World.
All he knew was that it was the main base of the Insect Race, and that all the insect hives drifting in the stellar space originated from the Insect Emperor World.
Chen Xuanhai gave a wry smile. "Junior Brother, you may not know this, but in essence the Insect Emperor World is actually a gigantic Origin Magnetic Planet. The entire domain is composed of high‑quality origin magnetic ore, and the origin magnetic field within it is chaotic and dense. No matter how strong your strength is, once you fall into it, it’s hard to bring your power to bear."
Lu Ye’s expression tightened. "An Origin Magnetic Planet!"
He was certainly no stranger to origin magnetic fields. The geomagnetic turbulence zone near the Jade Conch Galaxy was filled with all kinds of chaotic origin magnetic fields; origin magnetic storms would erupt from time to time, extremely dangerous.
On a planet made purely of high‑quality origin magnetic ore, the strength of the origin magnetic field within was simply beyond imagination.
In such an environment, any cultivator who went deeper in would find their cultivation greatly diminished by the interference of the origin magnetic field; if a Sun Blaze entered, they would likely be reduced to only the level of a Moon Jade.
But due to the special nature of the Insect Race itself, they possessed an innate resistance to this strange power of the origin magnetic field.
Lu Ye had long experienced this. Back when the Nine Provinces’ armies attacked the underground insect hives, they had used insect blood to refine certain Secret Medicine, smearing it on the cultivators’ bodies to resist the interference of the origin magnetic field.
One could say that the Insect Emperor World was a place naturally suited for the survival of the Insect Race; no other race could establish a foothold there.
