After swallowing a drop of Soul Water, Lu Ye had fully recovered in less than the time it took an incense stick to burn.
He slowly rose to his feet, called out to Yiyi and Amber, then looked once more at this ruined Dragon Ascent World.
It was time to go!
With a thought, ripples spread through the Void before him.
Faintly, a familiar aura drifted out from those ripples—the aura of the Cloud River Battlefield.
What surprised Lu Ye was that he could actually see the situation outside through layer upon layer of ripples.
It was like a reflection on the surface of water!
Sure enough, what he saw was still the Forbidden Land outside the Hundred Formation Pagoda, where the Teleportation Array through which he had entered the Dragon Ascent World was located.
But near that Teleportation Array sat figure after figure. At a glance, they were packed so densely that there were no fewer than several hundred people.
He spotted several familiar faces among them.
Xia Liang, Tan Sheng, as well as Chu Yun and Zhou Pei of the Sacred Fire Sect, who had chased after him from Heaven's Mystery City earlier...
These people had surrounded the area around the Sacrificial Altar so tightly that not even water could seep through. The moment he showed himself, he would surely be met with a storm of attacks.
Those thieves still would not give up on killing me!
His greatest worry had come true.
The Dragon Ascent World was, after all, merely a Secret Realm. Lu Ye knew that he would leave this place sooner or later.
Whether Myriad Demon Ridge Cultivators would wait for him outside had always been his concern. Now, it seemed his worry had been justified. He really had been blocked in.
