Chapter 819: Chapter 401 Collapse, Encirclement and Kill
“Refined you.”
An indifferent, icy voice emanated from Lu Yun’s mouth, as if it were a judgment from Hell itself.
With a thunderous boom, the half-bodied Unity Realm expert from Purple Blood Valley was thrown into the Hell Furnace.
Immediately after, pitch-black flames blazed forth from the furnace, shooting towards the sky, utterly consuming everything in their path.
Ye Chen’s pupils suddenly constricted as if he had witnessed something inconceivable.
In his narrowed eyes, he could see the Unity Realm expert who had been thrown into the Hell Furnace screaming in agony as his body shrouded in dark flames gradually began to fade into nothingness.
He tried to resist, but was ruthlessly suppressed by a formidable force.
The Hell Furnace shook continuously, driven by the relentless struggle of the Unity Realm expert’s power, but it seemed to have little effect. He appeared to be trapped within a vast world, surrounded by grim flames boasting terrifying powers of devouring and refinement. With each breath he took within it, he could feel his life force swiftly draining away.
And as time passed, his resistance grew ever weaker until, after a dozen breaths, the Hell Furnace gradually ceased shaking, and the Unity Realm expert from Purple Blood Valley completely disappeared.
“Failed, huh…” A hint of regret flashed across Lu Yun’s face.
This had been his trial. If successful, there was no doubt that his strength would have taken a qualitative leap during this war.
Alas, in the end, it was still a failure.
Although he had refined the Purple Blood Valley Unity Realm expert, in the final moment, the opponent’s Cave Heavens collapsed, blending into the Void, and the treasures within it were lost in the chaotic currents of the Void.
However, he had anticipated such an outcome and was not particularly disappointed.
The reason this attempt was not successful mainly lay in his insufficient strength. He had failed to invade the Cave Heavens within the brief moment of their fusion with the Void.
Lu Yun believed that with the Hell Furnace, it wouldn’t be long before he could reach the step of intercepting the treasures of Cave Heavens.
The Hell Furnace gradually shrank until it returned to his body, and Lu Yun sensed a slight change in his Divine Power, but no new Dragon Elephant Particles had transformed.
Clearly, despite both being at the Unity Realm level, refining a Cultivator was far inferior to refining a member of the Demon Clan.
Besides, the experience of refining humans and demons was markedly different.
When refining the Demon Clan, he felt no burden on his heart, no different from refining a common great medicine.
However, after refining a Cultivator, a faint resentment lingered in his heart.
He felt that this resentment was very mild; a light sweep of his consciousness could dispel it thoroughly.
“Using the Hell Furnace to refine people is also viable, but one must be mindful of the frequency…” Lu Yun’s pupils flickered with light as he pondered in silence.
“Looks can be deceiving. Junior Brother Lu seems harmless, but he fights so cruelly, refining a person alive.” Ye Chen inwardly remarked, “With such a formidable method, I wonder, what kind of Divine Ability could this be?”
There were myriad Divine Abilities in the Instruction Hall, and Ye Chen assumed Lu Yun had fortuitously acquired it from there, so he didn’t pay it much attention.
“Junior Brother Lu, you’ve actually slain two Unity Realm experts by yourself. Your combat achievements have already surpassed the other Elite Disciples…”
Just then, Su Yi slowly descended from above. He had already slain the True Spirit Realm enemy and merged into the darkness, quietly watching everything below.
He was also deeply shocked by the sight of Lu Yun using the Hell Furnace to refine the Unity Realm expert from Purple Blood Valley.
The rumors, it seemed, were not unfounded.
It wouldn’t be long before he’d catch up with us,
This was the first thought in his heart.
The indifference and coldness on Lu Yun’s face faded away as he said with a slight smile, “I am far from being comparable to you, Senior Brother Su.”Upd@te by novg0.co
Although he had previously slain two Unity Realm experts, he had only earned a hundred and twenty Combat Achievement Points.
Meanwhile, Ye Chen and Su Yi had slain True Spirit Realm experts, each gaining at least a thousand Combat Achievement Points. The difference was significant.
“Alright, alright. We’ve eliminated this group of enemies. Let’s continue to pursue the next one and make sure to slay them all here!” Ye Chen interrupted their conversation, returning to the task at hand.
“You’re the team leader, so naturally, we’ll follow your lead,” Su Yi said with a resigned shrug.
Ye Chen nodded, then turned to the gathered crowd and commanded, “Everyone, follow me!”
The hundred-person squad had been reduced to just over eighty after the battle.
At the cost of losing a dozen individuals, eliminating two True Spirit Realm experts and twenty-five Unity Realm experts from Purple Blood Valley, as well as another twenty from the Heavenly Human Realm, was undoubtedly a major victory.
Of course, the Green Flame Palace’s hundred-person squad was composed of genius Disciples. Even in equal numbers, they were far from comparable to ordinary first-tier forces like Purple Blood Valley.
An hour later.
Lu Yun and company caught up with another group of enemies.
Ye Chen and Su Yi each held a sword, standing resolutely at the forefront, with Duan Hong and a few other powerful Elite Disciples closely following. They exuded a formidable aura, their gaze piercingly directed at the enemies ahead.
Lu Yun remained hidden within the crowd, his expression calm, his aura subtly concealed, appearing somewhat understated, yet his gaze imperceptibly swept over the enemy force before him.
This group of enemies had fewer numbers than the Purple Blood Valley Cultivators they had encountered earlier, but their overall strength far surpassed that of Purple Blood Valley.
The Sky Cloud Region forces besieging the Li Mountain Sect mainly consisted of Purple Blood Valley and Heaven’s Glory Palace, with a portion belonging to True Word Temple disciples.
Now, the enemy force Lu Yun and his allies had encountered undoubtedly belonged to the True Word Temple.
