Saint Blood and Hegemonic Blood

"They got away!!"

"Damn it, this guy is too cunning!"

Upon seeing Zhou Tong disappear, the Ji Family's protectors all turned grim.

The matter of protectors is not something that can be handled by sending invincible powerhouses.

A true protector of the Way is at most one realm higher than the one being protected. If the difference is too great, then he is no longer a protector of the Way.

However, the Ji Family had already done extensive research and were confident that Ji Haoyue would be safe on this trip, but they miscalculated. While miscalculating, they were also shaken by the other party's sudden words, which gave them an opportunity to take advantage.

Under normal circumstances, why would these people hesitate so easily?

"Haoyue, are you alright?" At this moment, a person walked up to Ji Haoyue Ji Haoyue handed her a pill.

Ji Haoyue took the pill, quickly swallowed it, and circulated the "Void Scripture" to absorb its medicinal properties to heal her injuries; her injuries were quickly restored.

"It's alright... I'm also fortunate that he put pressure on me, which allowed me to integrate the anomaly into my Ji Family's Void Divine Technique." Ji Haoyue's eyes were somewhat cold. "This time I was at a disadvantage, but it won't be so easy next time."

"However, who exactly is this person? How come I've never heard of such a person in the Eastern Wasteland?" Ji Haoyue then looked at the several protectors beside her.

"Never heard of it. Could it be from the Northern Plains, Southern Ridge, Central Plains, or Western Desert?" another protector asked.

"He shouldn't be from the Western Desert. His Dao shouldn't be from the Western Desert, nor does it seem like the Central Plains." Another person pondered for a while, then said, "That wild fighting style is somewhat like that of cultivators from the Northern Plains and the Southern Ridge."

"No, this person's appearance is exactly the same as the one that Yaoguang Holy Land wanted a few years ago!" Suddenly, someone noticed and exclaimed, "This person was wanted by Yaoguang Holy Land three years ago, and while he was still wanted, he brazenly broke into the Yaoguang Holy Land's gathering place and killed all those young people!"

"You mean? Zhao Hao?" one person asked in surprise. "But I remember those Demon Clan calling him ' Zhou Tong.' Could it be that the information from the Yaoguang Holy Land is wrong? Is that person using an alias?"

"No matter who he is, next time, I will kill him with my own hands!" Ji Haoyue's voice was cold, carrying an extremely terrifying determination.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

After escaping from the Ji Family's encirclement, he took a deep breath. "As expected of the Void Mirror, its power is truly terrifying! It only managed to withstand a fraction of Ji Haoyue's power in activating the Void Mirror, and it already consumed one ten-thousandth of the Purple Sun Lamp's power once again..."

"However, since we've encountered the Demon Clan and Ji Haoyue here, the Bronze Immortal Palace must be next!"

"Although the treasures inside the Bronze Immortal Palace were left to Ye Fan by the Ruthless Great Emperor, it's not unreasonable for me to sit beside him and drink some soup while Ye Fan eats the meat!"

"Moreover... the Bronze Immortal Palace must contain some Dao Scripture left behind by the Ruthless Great Emperor, and perhaps even some Dao Pattern from the Immortal Palace Chaotic Ancient Era. If I can comprehend even a trace of it, perhaps I can break through to the Dragon Transformation Realm!"

Zhou Tong's heart stirred, and he headed straight for a certain place.

In a certain huge lake.

Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue drifted along the underground river and soon arrived at a huge lake.

The underwater area was pitch black, invisible to the naked eye, but it had no effect on Ye Fan. The golden lake between his brows shone brightly, and his powerful divine sense could scan all directions, taking everything into his mind.

"What is this place?" he exclaimed in surprise. Under the water, he saw countless broken walls and ruins, as well as palace remains.

At that moment, Ji Ziyue exclaimed in surprise, "Heavens, could it be a relic from Desolate Antiquity times?"

"Plop!!"

Suddenly, a voice reached their ears. Ye Fan also felt his blood boil once again, exactly the same as when he had seen Zhou Tong before.

"It's that feeling again. Could it be Zhou Tong?" Ye Fan was overjoyed.

Compared to these Ancient Desolate Family, classmates from the same place are more reliable.

"What are you laughing at?" Seeing Ye Fan laugh, Ji Ziyue immediately felt something was wrong.

However, she soon saw a figure swimming towards her. When she recognized him, she panicked and exclaimed, "You... how is it you? What happened to my brother?"

She recognized him; the person in front of her was the one who had fought her brother earlier.

He's here now, so where's his brother?

Zhou Tong looked at Ji Ziyue and laughed, "Your brother lost to me and I've already killed him!"

"Hmph, you two little thieves are spouting nonsense!" After her initial panic, Ji Ziyue quickly calmed down, her bright eyes widening in disbelief. "My brother possesses the Void Mirror; even a young Great Emperor would be no match for him. You think you can defeat him?"

"Zhou Tong, how did your battle with Ji Haoyue go?" Ye Fan was also very curious about the outcome of that battle.

Having followed the group of the Demon Clan, Ye Fan had heard more than once about how powerful and talented Ji Haoyue was. Now, one of his classmates had emerged who could fight her. Even if he lost, he could still be proud.

Zhou Tong shook his head and said, "Although I've been the one pressing Ji Haoyue the whole time, to be precise, there's been no result. I don't know if he still has any trump cards up his sleeve. But the result is not bad; we managed to force Ji Haoyue to use his Void Mirror."

In this battle, Zhou Tong did not go all out. At least he had not used his strongest Grass Character Sword Art yet, nor had he used the Thunder Emperor Treasure Technique and Immortal Phoenix Treasure Art, which were second only to the Grass Character Sword Art. He also did not show the ultimate Divine Form of the Hegemon Body, nor did he use the Dao Proving Artifact Hegemonic Bell or even the Vajra Ring. He only honed the Kirin Treasure Art throughout the entire battle.

Zhou Tong estimated his own combat strength to be at the seventh level of the Forbidden Realm, while Ji Haoyue was around the fifth level before her final breakthrough, which should have brought her to the sixth level.

"Bullshit!" Ji Ziyue was annoyed.

Zhou Tong ignored her and looked at Ye Fan, saying, "Ye Fan, I believe you have already sensed that there is a conflict between our constitutions. As long as we face each other, we will definitely fight to the death."

Ye Fan nodded, but then asked with some doubt, "But that shouldn't be the case. We're not enemies. Could there be antagonism between different constitutions?"

"I'm afraid that in the whole world, apart from our two types of physiques, it would be hard to find any other opposing physiques!" Zhou Tong said. "Since ancient times, your Ancient Sacred Body lineage has had a great enemy, which is the Azure Heaven Overlord Body, which is also the name of my physique."

"Your Saint Blood and my Hegemonic Blood are inherently opposed."

Zhou Tong continued, "There are countless types of physiques in this world, but there are only a few supreme ones. Apart from the Chaos Body, the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo, and the Pure Blood True Dragon and Pure Blood Immortal Phoenix, the strongest ones are your Primordial Sacred Body and my Azure Heaven Hegemonic Body."

"Azure Heaven Hegemonic Body..." Ye Fan's heart was filled with turmoil. Just reciting this name in his mind made him feel as if his blood was about to boil.

It was as if some force within his blood was constantly urging him to rush forward and engage in battle.

"Although an invincible mind is the most crucial thing on the path to enlightenment, in the early stages of cultivation, ancient scriptures, secret techniques, and physical constitution are the most important things!"

"With our physical constitutions, in the early stages of cultivation, as long as we can keep up with the ancient scriptures and secret techniques we cultivate, among those of the same level, unless the Imperial Son is revived, or the Chaos Body or the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo reappears, there will be absolutely no one who can be our match!"

Finally, Zhou Tong looked at Ji Ziyue, answering her previous question.

Ji Haoyue is definitely no match for him at the moment. The huge difference in their innate physiques cannot be easily made up for in this short period of time!
