Because Ye Yu’s protective formation was gone, the surging immortal energy bursting out inside the Ji Cheng Tower quickly attracted the Mo family immortals.
When they saw the newly chosen clan leader, Mo Jiuming, gravely injured on the ground, and beside him stood two unfamiliar figures—Ye Yu and Lü Zhixing—they immediately assumed an enemy invasion.
Instinctively, they launched attacks at Ye Yu and Lü Zhixing, aiming to rescue Mo Jiuming.
However, these Mo family immortals completely overestimated themselves.
Most were in the Earth Immortal Realm or Heavenly Immortal Realm, with only a few at the Golden Immortal Realm.
Such a lineup was nothing to fear.
Moreover, several Golden Immortal Realm cultivators rushed straight toward Lü Zhixing.
In response, Lü Zhixing immediately unleashed immortal techniques to slay these Golden Immortal Realm cultivators, and took the opportunity to prepare for a temporary retreat.
The reason was simple.
That guy Ye Yu was simply too strange—possessing various rare treasures.
He unexpectedly siphoned nearly fifty percent of Lü Zhixing’s vital blood energy, leaving him feeling incredibly weak.
No one knew if Ye Yu had any other hidden trump cards.
If he did, it was very likely Lü Zhixing would suffer a humiliating defeat here today.
So Lü Zhixing decided to lay low, retreat, recover strength, and once back at his peak, seek revenge against Ye Yu.
By then, all those rare treasures would be his.
This plan was absolutely sound.
But how would Ye Yu let him leave easily?
Immediately, Ye Yu’s mind shifted, and he continued to use the Night Walk of Ten Thousand Ghosts map to interfere with him.
Meanwhile, the Great Wilderness Blood Vine, having absorbed Lü Zhixing’s blood energy, successfully advanced to the early stage of the Golden Immortal Realm.
It was now fully capable of independently dealing with the swarming Mo family immortals, rapidly turning them into its nourishment.
Mo Jiuming watched helplessly as Ye Yu and Lü Zhixing slaughtered the Mo family immortals, his heart dripping blood.
But his heavily injured body could not mobilize any immortal energy.
All he could do was emit sorrowful cries.
Unbeknownst to him, this was only his perspective.
If Mo Jiuming had truly resisted Lü Zhixing’s temptation and remembered Ye Yu’s life-saving grace, the current scene would never have happened.
But even immortals were not perfect.
They always prioritized their own interests.
And it was precisely Mo Jiuming’s cry that successfully drew Ye Yu’s attention.
“Eh, almost forgot about you.
After all, you’re a Golden Immortal Realm immortal—can’t just ignore you!”
Ye Yu instantly teleported before Mo Jiuming.
In just two breaths of time, the Great Wilderness Blood Vine completely drained Mo Jiuming’s entire blood energy.
Then, the Soul-Slaying Immortal Spear suddenly slashed, devouring Mo Jiuming’s soul completely within the immortal weapon.
Nothing was wasted.
Lü Zhixing witnessed this scene clearly.
How sinful!
Who was the real evil immortal here?
Could this kid be a new disciple of the Three Corps Hall? Since he was sealed for so long, he didn’t recognize him?
While pondering this, an endless swirl of immortal energy surged into Ye Yu’s body.
As Ye Yu stepped forward, a golden aura wave suddenly spread out.
In front of everyone, Ye Yu broke through!
He fully entered the early stage of the Golden Immortal Realm.
This breakthrough left Lü Zhixing dumbfounded.
Back then, it took him eight thousand years to break through from the peak of Heavenly Immortal Realm to Golden Immortal Realm.
But this guy?
Didn’t even finish a fight and just forcibly broke through?
People really can make others angry!
Just as Lü Zhixing was stunned, Ye Yu slaughtered the remaining Mo family immortals around him and quickly approached.
Raising his hand, he struck with the Soul-Slaying Immortal Spear!
Lü Zhixing barely dodged.
“Immortal friend, wait. I am Lü Zhixing, Left Protector of the Three Corps Hall.
Judging from your moves, all are evil immortal methods.
Who did you apprentice under? Let’s report to each other to avoid a flood confusing the Dragon King’s temple—family not recognizing family!”
Ye Yu sneered.
“Who’s family with you? My master is Mengjing!”
Hearing this, Lü Zhixing’s expression became extremely strange.
Mengjing? When did the Heavenly Realm have an immortal called Mengjing?
He had never heard of it.
Could it be another newcomer that appeared in the last twenty thousand years?
Damn!
He had just been sealed for over twenty thousand years, but it felt like he was completely disconnected from the Heavenly Realm.
While fighting and retreating, Lü Zhixing searched for an escape and said, “So you’re the Mengjing Celestial Venerable. I am old acquaintances with your master.
How about we stop fighting here and I contact your master?”
Due to the severe loss of blood energy, Lü Zhixing felt increasingly powerless.
Also, having just [N O V E L I G H T] been released, his immortal energy was insufficient.
He also had to constantly guard against the Great Wilderness Blood Vine’s sneak attacks.
Lü Zhixing was really struggling.
At this moment, Ye Yu seized the chance and used the Tai Chu Profound Skill to bind Lü Zhixing’s hands.
The Great Wilderness Blood Vine suddenly followed up.
This Left Protector of the Three Corps Hall thus died with resentment in the Mo family.
Until death, he never understood Ye Yu’s true identity.
How could he wield even the top Tai Chu Pavilion technique, Tai Chu Profound Skill?
Immortal friend, you really confuse me!
After dealing with Lü Zhixing, Ye Yu, adhering to his principle of no waste, drained all his blood energy and soul.
Anyone watching would call him a great evil immortal.
But Ye Yu was not satisfied.
Because after the Great Wilderness Blood Vine devoured half of Lü Zhixing’s remaining blood energy, it didn’t improve much in cultivation.
This was possibly because it had already advanced to the mid stage of the Golden Immortal Realm.
Consequently, Ye Yu himself was stuck at the early stage of the Golden Immortal Realm, unable to ascend another step.
Truly disappointing.
But it wasn’t all bad news.
At least the Soul-Slaying Immortal Spear had grown more formidable after absorbing the soul of an Immortal Lord.
That was something.
After finishing, Ye Yu extracted Mo Jiuming’s soul from the spear and used the Soul Searching Great Technique on it.
He finally successfully located the huge ice block infused with ghost immortal aura.
Well, gotta admit, Mo Jiuming was cautious.
He had specially built a giant tower called Jianming Tower, set up many formations nearby, and assigned thirty Mo family immortals to guard it.
Thought the ice block was in Jianming Tower?
No!
Though Mo Jiuming told all Mo family leaders the ice block was in Jianming Tower, in truth, he placed it above the Ji Cheng Tower.
A total surprise.
Even if someone was a traitor and leaked the information, they wouldn’t have to worry about the ice block’s safety.
Gotta say, this was really clever.
But unfortunately, it all ended in failure!
Ye Yu shook his head slightly, then waved his sleeve and shattered the Ji Cheng Tower before him.
A massive ice block fell from above.
