The Undead Bone Sea, a Miracle of Life
Seeing that the Devil Race Resentful Sha Blood Corpse was poised to fight to the death and kill him on the spot, Liu Yi couldn't help but curse inwardly:
"I have no grudge against you, and today is our first meeting. Why do you hate me so much, as if we are mortal enemies?"
You think you can just kill me whenever you want, making it seem like I killed you? You died in High Antiquity, before I was even born.
These Resentful Sha Blood Corpse have indeed had their brains damaged by resentment and Sha Qi; they're no longer normal.
He spun around and slashed back, unleashing three Space-Rending Sword Qi that tore through the air. Their sharp edges ripped through the sky, shattering the opponent's sword energy into pieces.
Immediately afterward, he flew swiftly towards the opposite bank without looking back. He dared not linger here to kill the blood corpse, unlike that Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator from before.
Otherwise, these Resentful Sha Blood Corpse will only gather more and more, eventually dragging him to his death.
In an instant, a fierce chase erupted above the Blood River.
Countless Resentful Sha Blood Corpse pursued Liu Yi closely. As the commotion intensified, more blood corpses surged out of the river and pounced on him madly.
Liu Yi kept turning around, wielding the Heaven-Opening Sword to unleash dazzling and sharp sword Sword Qi, bombarding the blood corpses and trying his best to slow their progress.
"Damn it, this Blood River is too dangerous!" he cursed inwardly.
"I wonder how the others crossed the river, or am I the only one who encountered this life-threatening situation?"
Suddenly catching a glimpse of the riverbank, Liu Yi's face lit up with joy; he was finally about to cross the Blood River.
However, before the joy had faded, a blood-red figure suddenly burst out of the Blood River ahead, stirring up towering waves of blood.
The blood-red shadow was 20 meters tall, humanoid in shape, with 14 of its 18 arms severed, leaving only four remaining.
Its blood-red eyes were fixed on Liu Yi, filled with murderous intent, as it roared, "Kill you, avenge myself!"
Before he could finish speaking, the four remaining arms clenched into fists, and a barrage of punches rained down on Liu Yi.
Liu Yi was just about to reach the riverbank when suddenly another High Antiquity Devil Race corpse, transformed into Resentful Sha Blood Corpse, appeared, shouting that it wanted to kill him for revenge.
"Damn it, I've run into another lunatic. Why has everything been going wrong for me ever since I entered the Immortal-Devil Secret Realm?"
Is this the unexpected turn of events brought about by Bai Qianqian, the Child of Fortune? Or am I just so unlucky?
Faced with a barrage of fist shadows, he did not hesitate, gripped the Heaven-Opening Sword tightly, and once again Heaven-Opening Divine Ability, slashing out a dazzling sword light.
The sword light carried the power to Heaven-Opening; wherever its edge pointed, a scene of chaos being created and the world being opened up appeared.
"Boom!"
The Heaven-Opening Sword and fist shadows collided wildly, unleashing a deafening sound, like thunderclaps from the heavens, booming endlessly.
Suddenly, the Heaven-Opening Sword tore through the fist shadow, carrying the sword intent of Heaven-Opening and cleaving the world, and slashed down, hitting the eighteen-armed Devil Race's Resentful Sha Blood Corpse.
"Bang!"
With a deafening roar, even with its formidable physical body, it was cleaved open with a meter-deep wound, black blood gushing out and being violently blasted back into the Blood River.
Liu Yi had no intention of finishing off his opponent. He moved with lightning speed, passing by his opponent and flying rapidly towards the riverbank.
He rushed to the other side amidst the howling of the Resentful Sha Blood Corpse. All he could see was a vast expanse of white bones, stretching to the horizon.
Even the distant mountain peaks are made of piled-up bones; there is not a single blade of grass or tree in sight, nor any Spiritual Qi.
He turned to look at the Blood River, and saw that the riverbank was densely packed with Resentful Sha Blood Corpse.
Yet not a single one dared to set foot on the shore; only the earth-shattering roars of the corpses echoed between heaven and earth.
Seeing this, he let out a long sigh of relief, his tense body finally relaxing, and he was relieved that he no longer had to run.
That chase was extremely dangerous, and to make matters worse, we ran into two Resentful Sha Blood Corpse that were transformed from High Antiquity Devil Race.
Liu Yi glanced at the boundless sea of bones, but instead of proceeding rashly, he closed his eyes and began to circulate his Cultivation Method.
While absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, it also refines the energy stored in the system into True Power.
Half an hour later, after recovering his condition, he stored the Law Treasure in his Heavenly Dao Space and continued to nurture it with the World Origin.
He looked at the boundless sea of bones before him again, and based on the information he had gathered, he concluded that this place should be the Undead Bone Sea.
That is a sea of bones formed from the corpses of powerful warriors who died in battle in High Antiquity times, containing many spirits of the dead who have become sentient from the bones.
These undead will attack any living creature they see, but fortunately they are of low intelligence and are nothing more than scattered and disorganized soldiers.
He took to the air and flew rapidly towards the core of the Immortal-Devil Secret Realm.
They hadn't encountered a single ghost along the way.
A smile involuntarily spread across his face. It seemed that after so much bad luck, his fortunes had finally turned around.
Suddenly, a patch of green swept across the distance.
He immediately increased his flight speed, and the green hue rapidly expanded.
In the blink of an eye, a towering divine tree came into view, standing majestically amidst the Undead Bone Sea.
"Huh, this is pretty lucky. I didn't originally plan to specifically search for the Life Origin Tree."
Unexpectedly, it appeared directly on the road leading to the core of the Immortal-Devil Secret Realm.
I wonder if the Life Origin Fruit is ripe yet. If it is, I can just pick it.
"And this Life Origin Tree, I wonder if I can take it with me."
He flew closer and gazed at the Life Origin Tree that stood ten thousand meters tall.
It stands tall and proud in this land of death, its green branches swaying in the wind, radiating a vibrant and ever-flowing life force.
A life barrier was formed, isolating the surrounding Undead Bone Sea and preventing the undead from getting close.
He looked at the Source of Life Tree and couldn't help but sigh. Life is like death, death is like life, and the cycle of life and death is endless.
It is truly a great miracle of life that such a Life Origin Tree could be nurtured in such a desolate place.
Then he saw the forty-nine Life Origin Fruit hanging on the Life Origin Tree, and his face lit up with joy.
Unexpectedly, I was so lucky. The Life Origin Fruit had already ripened, so I immediately stepped into the Life Barrier.
As soon as you step into the barrier, a rich Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi surges in like a tide, carrying a vibrant life force.
Beneath the trees, flowers bloom in profusion, and the grass is lush and green. Several small herbivores roam leisurely among them, creating a vibrant and lively scene.
Then, they saw more than three hundred cultivators facing each other under the tree, none daring to be the first to pick the Life Origin Fruit, for fear of provoking a group attack.
Liu Yi scanned the crowd and immediately recognized nine Nascent Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators among them, as well as several familiar faces such as Ye Qingxue, Xie Tong, Ye Xuanxiao, Su Yaoguang, and Bai Shuyan.
His appearance caused everyone present to change their expressions instantly, their eyes filled with apprehension.
They hadn't expected Liu Yi to appear here, which undoubtedly meant they had gained another formidable competitor.
After all, they had all witnessed Liu Yi defeat Chen Jie with a single palm strike, and knew that this person's strength was unfathomable.
Liu Yi noticed that the Life Origin Fruit were scattered on the tree, not concentrated in one place, and immediately abandoned the idea of using the Five-Colored Divine Light to sweep them all away.
He walked calmly to the front of the crowd, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.
He then turned back to the Life Origin Tree and sensed the immense life energy within its trunk.
A glint of light flashed in his eyes as he secretly pondered whether there was a way to uproot the entire Life Origin Tree.
