Seed Realm, Demon Extermination Value Soars 3

Translator: 549690339

A deep, muffled voice drifted through the air as Qingyi middle-aged man swiftly left, shrouded with his battle halberd.

Anyone with keen eyesight could see that as the Qingyi middle-aged man departed, he was staggering, and golden blood dripped from his body.

Those witnessing this scene took a deep breath at last.

“If it wasn’t for witnessing it with my own eyes, I would have thought that it was two half-step Rune Seed Realm powerhouses fighting!”

Lu Yun stepped out from the blood river, his eyes crimson, and his longsword wrapped in blood-red saber energy. The surrounding void was shrouded in killing intent, making people dare not look directly at him.

He cast a deep glance at the fleeing Qingyi middle-aged man but ultimately decided not to pursue and kill him.

At the Half-step Rune Seed Realm, if the opponent chose not to fight, there was nothing he could do. At most, he could suppress and severely injure the foe but not kill him.

Moreover, slaying a half-step Rune Seed Realm martial artist and beheading a Golden Body Realm peak Hundred Sect martial artist would yield the same 3,200 Demon-Extermination Points.

The gap between the Golden Body Realm peak and the Half-step Rune Seed Realm was vast.

Wasting time on a half-step Rune Seed Realm was not something Lu Yun would do if it was laborious and unrewarding.

After contemplating, Lu Yun set his sights on a new target.

It was a battlefield between two Golden Core Realm martial artists.

Lu Yun vaguely recognized the Golden Body Realm martial artist on the Morigin side.

It was clear that he could only vaguely recognize someone without knowing them, that would be the disciples of the Ling Province Martial Academy.

With a brief search in his mind, Lu Yun found the person’s identity and the relevant information.

Li Jiuqu!

Previously, Li Jiuqu had been fighting alongside Lu Yun from the Black Mountain Sect to the Cloud Sea Sect and later together to the White Lotus Sect battleground. Although they didn’t interact much during the journey, they had been discussed by others.

Li Jiuqu, a Heavenly Pride disciple of South Sun Martial Academy, had strength comparable to the late Golden Body Realm, although his actual realm was the mid-Golden Body Realm.

From the current situation, his opponent was no ordinary late Golden Body Realm martial artist.

However, he had not gained any advantage during his battle with Li Jiuqu.

From this, it was evident that Li Jiuqu was a worthy Heavenly Pride disciple of South Sun Martial Academy, and his combat power was similar to that of the ‘Twin Blademen’ of Flying Spirit Martial Academy.

Boom!

The longsword shot out like a dragon, and under the power of the nearly twenty zhang Yuan Hai and the strong physical strength, it spit out terrifying saber radiance.

Li Jiuqu focused his entire mind and attention on dealing with his enemy, his longsword constantly attacking, pressing closely, and forcibly suppressing his opponent.

Helpless, although he possessed the ability to fight beyond his level, he didn’t completely suppress his opponent. If he wanted to win, he needed to strike with continuous momentum and not allow the enemy any breathing room; otherwise, the reversal of offense and defense would be extremely disadvantageous for him.

“Kill!”

Suddenly, intense killing intent burst forth in Li Jiuqu’s eyes, and all his saber intent and True Origin converged into a single terrifying strike.

Under the threat of such a horrifying attack, the White Lotus Sect’s Golden Body Realm martial artist’s face changed and he quickly dodged without thinking.

Boom!

Finally, when he was unable to dodge in time, his right arm was severed by the strike, and golden blood flowed out.

Even Golden Body Realm martial artists couldn’t achieve regeneration of a severed limb.

After losing his arm, his strength was drastically weakened, and continuing the fight was impossible, so he could only temporarily withdraw from the battlefield.

With the strength of his late Golden Body Realm, Li Jiuqu couldn’t possibly stop him from fleeing.

Li Jiuqu did not intend to stop him, knowing his limitations, as it was easy to defeat a late Golden Body Realm martial artist, but it was not very likely to kill him outright.

Seeing that Li Jiuqu did not give chase, the White Lotus Sect’s late Golden Body Realm martial artist visibly relaxed. Just as he slightly let down his guard, a tremendous sense of danger suddenly arose in his heart.

Almost instantly, he scrambled to mobilize his Yuan Hai and powerful body to defend against the imminent threat.

But before he could gather his strength, an indescribable pressure from the surrounding space caused his body to quickly shatter.

The Hundred-refined Vajra Ring emitted a powerful suppressive force. Destroy!

Lu Yun’s expression was indifferent as he watched the opponent being trapped by the Hundred-refined Vajra Ring and prepared to annihilate him directly. Formless Tribulation Finger!

Feeling the threat of death, the White Lotus Sect Golden Body Realm powerhouse struggled violently, and waves of vast True Origin crazily surged, trying to break free from the constraints of the Hundred-refined Vajra Ring.

However, there was no effect.

The Hundred-refined Vajra Ring hung horizontally in the void, emitting a powerful golden halo, sealing off a piece of heaven and earth, and possessing a terrifying suppression force.

Breaking free from it required extraordinary strength and a high degree of power.

If their explosive power was insufficient, or if they were too far behind Lu Yun, there would be no chance of breaking free.

The terrifying finger pierced through the void and landed directly.

Puchi!

The body burst apart, golden blood spraying across the sky, and the pitiful White Lotus Sect Golden Body Realm martial artist was penetrated by the Formless Tribulation Finger without even seeing Lu Yun’s face.

The entire process had happened almost instantaneously.

From the moment the White Lotus Sect Golden Body Realm martial artist fled, to being suppressed by the Hundred-refined Vajra Ring, and then being killed by the Formless Tribulation Finger, it took just under two breaths.

Recalling the Hundred-refined Vajra Ring, Lu Yun took the opponent’s Sumi Ring and examined it briefly, a faint smile appearing on his face.

On the other side,

Li Jiuqu watched Lu Yun’s dominating move, killing the opponent he couldn’t handle in an instant, his eyes flashed with a complex emotion.

As one of Ling Province’s Martial Academy’s Heavenly Pride, he felt dull and dim in comparison to Lu Yun’s brilliance.

However, after a brief moment, he readjusted his mindset.

Becoming a Martial Academy Saint Child and the first ever in Ling Province for hundreds of years meant having such extraordinary strength was a good thing.

Not only could it bring honor to Ling Province, but it could also inspire the Heavenly Pride of other Ling Province Martial Academies, allowing the martial arts level of their younger generation to rise rapidly and catch up with the other major provinces.

Moreover, Li Jiuqu had a premonition that if he could survive this battle and return from the Hundred Sects Expedition, he would surely advance to the late Golden Body Realm, or even the peak realm, quickly.

With his strong talent and experience in life-and-death battles, his Golden Body Realm accumulations would become even more profound, and breaking through the realms would be a natural process.

Gathering his spoils of war, Lu Yun checked the Demon-Extermination Token again.

Killing a late Golden Body Realm martial artist contributed 1,600 Demon-Extermination Points to him.

Adding the previous points, his Demon-Extermination Points had broken through the 9,000 mark, getting him even closer to the target of 10,000.

“Still, it’s better to kill martial artists with a big gap in strength compared to me, so I can earn Demon-Extermination Points faster.”

Lu Yun’s determination was unwavering as he shifted his gaze to another White Lotus Sect Golden Body Realm martial artist.

However, before he could make a move, he sensed a powerful aura approaching.

“Damn bad luck!”

Lu Yun cursed lowly and quickly concealed his aura, heading in another direction..
