od and flesh. There were several deep claw marks on his chest, and the blood had already stained his shirt red below his chest.>>>Thankfully, he was no longer an ordinary man. During his confrontatio...The injuries of a spiritual body cannot be healed by ordinary means, this probably requires a long time of cultivation, and how long it will take is uncertain.

It's safe here, but Lu Ye couldn't possibly stay for too long.

The bottle held what remained of his last half-bottle of soulwashing water, barely ten drops. It was meant for emergencies, but in this situation, he couldn't bother with such niceties.

As the bottle was opened, a unique fragrance of soul washing water wafted out. Inhaling it, Lu Ye's spirit jolted. It felt as if even his weariness had dissipated considerably.

This only made him more certain that for his current situation, the soul-washing water was the best remedy.

I didn't dare to take too much, I only took a drop and swallowed it. A gentle feeling instantly spread throughout my body, the fatigue of both body and mind dissipated at a visible speed, even the injuries on my body were rapidly healing.

As expected, the soul washing water has an extremely remarkable effect on healing spiritual injuries.

After silently sitting for a full hour, until he was completely recovered, Lu Ye finally rose to his feet.

He walked to the door and peered out through the crack.

The zerg that used to hunt him had mostly disappeared,

only a few were wandering the streets aimlessly. The threat they posed was minimal now.

Since we're heading to the City Lord's Mansion, the most important thing right now is to determine our location.

Before that, there are some things Lu Ye wanted to confirm.

Now that this special building stands as a support, even if faced with any danger, they could return to hide. So Lu Ye was very curious if the abnormalities he had felt before were the same as what he thought.

If that were the case, then perhaps he could employ some tactics he wouldn't normally be able to use.

I took a moment to check my war records and found that the number of achievements had already reached over three thousand...

Although this number is considerable, it's not a large one considering he had previously slain many insect creatures, including those at the True Lake Realm.

It seems that the calculation of military merit is based on his current true lake realm strength. Therefore, even if he kills true lake realm insect races, he will not gain much military merit.

This was a bit disappointing for Lü Ye. If military merit was calculated based on his cultivation level of the Yunhe Fifth Layer, then the amount he could have earned in the previous battle would definitely be several times higher.

But then I thought, being able to earn merit in this place is already an unexpected gain. What else could I be unsatisfied with

As soon as Lu Ye pushed open the door, he immediately constructed concealment and calming spirit patterns, concealing his form.

A slight movement startled a few of the insect creatures, but after turning their heads and finding nothing, they stopped paying attention and continued to wander around.

The Zerg's shapes are bizarre and varied. Some Zerg can correspond to the forms of demon beasts, at first glance they look no different from demon beasts, but in fact they are not demon beasts at all.

Some Zerg forms are truly unique, defying all logic and reason.

The stronger the insect race, the more robust the carapace it provides. Therefore, killing insects is a technical feat, requiring attacks on areas without carapace protection to inflict significant damage.

Lü Ye, having honed himself repeatedly in the mirage, is well-versed in the weaknesses of all sorts of insect races.

His target this time was a creature resembling a centipede, with overlapping white plates covering its back, looking like bleached bone armor. Over one hundred pairs of legs crawled, producing a dense rustling sound.

What Lu Ye needed to verify wasn't complicated, but to ensure the accuracy of the results, he didn't immediately attack this insectoid race. Instead, he quietly lay in wait.

After a while, the centipede horde settled down, remaining motionless in the ruins of a building.

Lu Ye approached silently, until he was only three zhang away from the insect creature, before stopping.

The silent atmosphere was suddenly broken. The moment Lu Ye's power surged around him, the centipede monster also realized something was wrong. However, before it could react, the space in front of Lu Ye suddenly twisted. A faint arrow-shaped object flashed and slammed into the centipede's head, vanishing instantly.

At that moment, the centipede tribe was severely wounded. Its ten-zhang long body writhed violently, and a heart-piercing shriek came from its mouth.

The silhouette of Lu Ye emerged, the Pishan blade already unsheathed. Taking advantage of the Zerg's struggle, he slashed down with a single blow.

A verdant stream of blood spurted out, a massive skull soared into the air, and a bug-type creature comparable to the True Lake Realm perished.

Lu Ye's expression was calm, but there was joy in his eyes. Because he discovered that what he had felt before was not an illusion, but real!

Before he fled, when he fought the Zerg, he imbued his Pantian Blade with a sharp spirit pattern. Back then, he felt something strange because the sharp spirit pattern wasn't like it usually was.

In the past, sharpness was something that needed to be imbued into weapons, making them more potent.

Of course, it can also be empowered in other places, but no matter what, it needs a carrier to exert its effect.

But the sharpness displayed in Xianyu City was as if it didn't need any carrier...

>>

Its thick carapace, covering its entire body, offered no protection whatsoever against this invisible and intangible assault.

Under normal circumstances, Lu Ye would have had to use some tricks even if he managed to kill this Zerg. But with the help of his sharp divine pattern, he only needed a single strike to obliterate it.

The verification confirmed Lu Ye's idea, filling his heart with excitement.

In such an environment, in such a place, divine inscription attacks could definitely have unexpected effects. If I had known this earlier, perhaps I wouldn't have been chased so miserably.

At the end of the day, he's just a Cloud River Fifth Layer Realm cultivator. Even with the strength of a True Lake Realm now, he's far from being able to touch the power of divine souls. That's a technique only Grand Cultivators of the Sea God Realm can wield.

In this particular environment, Lu Ye had obtained the resources that only those in the Shenhai realm could possess.

He couldn't help but remember again what Madam Yun had said to him once.

Warlock, as a type of being, was troublesome before the Divine Sea Realm existed, but their threat mostly manifested in their diverse combat styles. During battles, Warlocks could activate various types of spirit runes, subjecting opponents to the perils of human existence.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

>After the Divine Sea Realm, a Runemaster is no longer just difficult to deal with. Many times, the opponent may not even know how they died.

In short, after the Divine Sea Realm, an outstanding battle pattern master can exert strength far greater than that of an ordinary Divine Sea Realm cultivator, with even more imposing might.

The reason for this is because Soul Masters can cast divine runes after reaching the Divine Sea Realm, transforming them into various soul attacks.

While other gods in the Sea of Divine might have similar tactics, none can match the unpredictable and ever-changing nature of a battle pattern master.

The sharp divine runes, empowered by the soul force, unleashed devastating power. The anomaly here also alarmed other insectoids roaming nearby, who swarmed towards this location.

Lu Ye charged forward, holding the Pianshan Sword toward the nearest insect race creature. As he rushed, the sharp divine patterns were activated again, and in the distortion of space, the materialized object, resembling an arrow, flashed once more. Before the insect creature could even get close to Lu Ye, it suddenly fell to the ground, writhing in pain.

When the multitude of leaves charged forward, it was completely unaware of the impending danger. The Pianshan Blade slashed through the air, and another insect creature fell.ctivating his Wind Travel Spirit Pattern, he couldn't match her speed. Unless he activated the Flying Wing Thorn Pattern, but the time limit for that had already passed, and he couldn't use it again.W...
