In a certain mountain forest.
Two figures descended, one was an elderly white-haired woman with a chaotic aura, panting heavily as she landed on the ground.
The other was a coldly beautiful woman with a captivating figure and a stunning face.
“Weiwei, I forcibly used a forbidden technique to burn my remaining life force. I’m afraid I may not be able to return to the sect with you,” the elderly woman said, her face devoid of any injuries. But only she truly knew the severity of her condition. She had joined forces with Li Quanshou and others to orchestrate the Three Sabers and Nine Swords Array earlier, using her hidden potential in the process. Her subsequent battle and the use of her trump card further aggravated her condition.
The most critical part was the reckless use of forbidden techniques that completely burned away her life force, leaving her with only a few years left to live.
Seeing the elderly woman in such a fragile state, Weiwei was determined to remain calm. “Supreme Elder, you are the pillar of Cloud Jade Pavilion, I’m sure nothing will happen to you. I will definitely bring you back to the sect,” she promised.
“Cloud Jade Pavilion…”
The elderly woman struggled to lift her eyes, looking in the direction of the endless sky and mountains, where only white clouds could be seen.
At this moment, she seemed to see something, a trace of longing in her scattered gaze.
“Weiwei, the strength of the Demon Suppression Army is too powerful. Our sect may not withstand it. Even the Profound Darkness Sect is under immense pressure right now…
Our sect only has one path left, and that is to abandon everything and relocate the disciples out of the Profound Darkness Domain.
Originally, I intended to inform the pavilion master about this after the battle, but I’m afraid I don’t have much time left. I can only entrust this matter with you.”
“Supreme Elder, you will be fine. I will take you back, we will be there in no time. Just hold on.”
Ignoring her own need for rest, Weiwei took the elderly woman and moved through the sky without any hesitation.
The Sky Brilliance Sect’s Supreme Elder, a mid-stage Rune Seed Realm practitioner, was incredibly powerful. However, she had barely held on for a few rounds against the Demon Extermination General, which showed the terrifying strength of the enemy.
She knew very well that if that terrifying Demon Extermination General caught up to them, she would not only be unable to save the Supreme Elder but would also struggle to protect herself. Therefore, she dared not to pause at any cost.
Elsewhere.
After Ye Xuan had recovered, Lu Yun casually walked to the peak of a towering mountain, looking at the surrounding tall mountains, a sense of emotion filled his heart.
“Just three Rune Seed Realms and a few Golden Body Realms, taking advantage of the terrain, they were able to unleash power comparable to the peak of the Rune Seed Realm. The power of Arrays should not be underestimated.”
Lu Yun had rarely encountered arrays. The first time he witnessed one was when the Black Tiger Army used one to battle the Demon Beasts just outside the Spirit Martial Prefecture of Green Cloud County.
However, that array was a battle array that gathered the ruthless killing intent and strong blood energy of the Black Tiger Army soldiers to unleash enormous power.
From the current situation, the people who attacked them not only utilized the terrain but also mobilized all the Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi within thousands of miles to unleash devastating power, easily breaking the defense of the No. 18 battleship.
If he had not exited his seclusion in time, the Demon Extermination General and a group of Demon Extermination Guards on the battleship would have suffered severely, or even worse, lethal damage.
Even with the power weakened by the protective shield, the remaining force was still not something the late-stage Rune Seed Realm could withstand.
Among the Demon Extermination Generals like Ye Xuan, the most powerful was only a Half-step Rune Seed Realm. Adding to that, they suffered heavy injuries due to backlash. Facing the aforementioned attack, it would indeed be a deadly end.
“In the future, we will surely encounter more unexpected situations like this. I cannot always be there to resolve the crisis for them. After defeating the Profound Darkness Sect, I will find an opportunity to improve this situation.” What Lu Yun thought of was to request from Wei Tianlun to deploy two Rune Seed Realm experts to assist him in managing the Demon Suppression Army.
Alternatively, he could give up his command and join a different, more powerful Demon Suppression Army.
This way, he could both accommodate himself and ensure the safety of the others.
Time flowed on, and two days later, the battleship set off again.
By this point, all the Black-rank Demon Extermination Generals had fully recovered from their injuries, and Qing Hou had condensed his Rune Seeds, becoming the second Half-step Rune Seed Realm after Ye Xuan.
Although one Half-step Rune Seed Realm was not much of a help to Lu Yun, it was a top-notch combat power for the Demon Suppression Army of the No. 18 battleship, greatly enhancing their overall strength.
The battleship rapidly approached the Sky Brilliance Sect. According to their current speed, it would take several more hours to arrive.
During this time, Lu Yun did not idle. He continued to enhance his cultivation.
Martial Arts, boundless and infinite.
Furthermore, he was only at the peak of the Golden Body Realm and had a long way to go before he could condense Rune Seeds.
As the battles against the Hundred Sects intensified, the enemies he encountered in the future would become stronger. The stronger his own cultivation was, the more risk he could hedge against.
Unfortunately, the process of engraving runes was a step-by-step progression. Otherwise, he would have used all his energy to elevate his Pure Yang Martial Arts Canon Golden Body Chapter to Perfection.
Doing so would significantly damage his foundation and could even affect the quality of the Rune Seeds he could condense.
“At the moment, I have 25 runes. Increasing by two runes every day is my limit. At this rate, it will take me at least one more month to condense a superior Rune Seed.”
One month to engrave nearly a hundred runes was a speed that no Heavenly Pride could match. However, Lu Yun still felt it was too slow..
