Humanity’s Great Sage

rotect his vital parts.
As for his other body parts, he wouldn’t mind exposing them to his opponent.
He wanted to see which one of them would be brought down first.
It had to be said that his way of defending himself was shameless but extremely effective.
That was because his chest was indeed attacked by Senior Brother Zhou, but his Spiritual Pattern had fended off the fatal strike.
It was also because of this attack that Senior Brother Zhou’s thigh was exposed, which allowed Lu Ye to harm him.

It wasn’t that Lu Ye didn’t want to activate a large Spiritual Pattern, but it was energy consuming to do so.
He wasn’t powerful enough to sustain it.
Therefore, he had to ensure that he could kill his opponent before his Spiritual Power was exhausted.
Otherwise, he and Amber would be doomed.
It was enough to have two Spiritual Patterns to protect his vital parts.

“Damn it!” Senior Brother Zhou cursed again in exasperation.
After he finished speaking, he fished out a talisman paper and used it on himself.
That was a Golden Body Talisman Paper.
In an instant, he was engulfed in a layer of golden light.
Following that, he took out another talisman paper and hurled it at Lu Ye.

As a Fifth-Order cultivator, he certainly had some talisman papers that could save his life.
Normally, he was reluctant to use them, but now, he was left with no other choice.
After trading moves twice, which caused both of them to be injured, he realized that it was difficult to deal with this Third-Order cultivator who came out of nowhere.
The weapon in his opponent’s hand was especially sharp, which could easily penetrate his protective Spiritual Power.

On the other hand, Lu Ye had already dashed forward.
Seeing that Senior Brother Zhou had cast a talisman paper, he had no choice but to stop in his tracks.
Following that, a bell spun and became as tall as a Human before it came into the way between Lu Ye and his opponent.
The power of the talisman paper clashed with the bell with a loud clang.

While his figure was covered up by the bell, Lu Ye seized the chance and emerged from the side.
When Senior Brother Zhou saw him, they were only 15 meters apart.
He wanted to retreat, but the wound on his leg caused him to totter.
Faced with the ferocious Lu Ye, he clenched his teeth and pushed his sword forward.

Lu Ye charged forward and slashed at him.
Blood splashed everywhere as the sounds of weapons jabbing into flesh were heard.
After their Spiritual Powers clashed, the battlefield became a mess.
They had traded moves again as both of them were hurt.

Although Senior Brother Zhou was two minor realms above Lu Ye, the latter’s Spiritual Patterns, Sharp Edge and Protection, were able to make up for the gap between their powers.
In fact, Lu Ye was even stronger than his opponent when it came to attack and defense.

The only thing Senior Brother Zhou had an advantage over Lu Ye was his Spiritual Power reserve.
A Fifth-Order cultivator must have unlocked 63 Spiritual Points at the very least.
Although Lu Ye had been cultivating while looking for Amber on the mountain, he had only managed to unlock up to 41 Spiritual Points.
There was a gap of over 20 Spiritual Points between them, which was why Senior Brother Zhou was at an advantage when it came to Spiritual Power reserve.

However, that didn’t allow him to gain the upper hand in the battle.
This kind of brutal and violent fight made him feel despondent because his opponent was able to use Spiritual Patterns, which protected his two vital parts.
As a Fifth-Order cultivator, he was still unable to break the Spiritual Patterns.

He had attempted to shatter the Spiritual Patterns.
However, whenever he weakened the powers of the Spiritual Patterns using his sword, his opponent was able to use Spiritual Power to repair them.
Unless he could destroy the Spiritual Patterns with one strike, anything else he did was futile.

Realizing that his injuries had worsened, he stopped having the urge to avenge the death of his Junior Sister and Junior Brothers.
That was because he felt that if he kept fighting, he would probably lose his life in this place.
Faced with the other party’s relentless attack, he didn’t even have the time to send a message.
