Chapter 45: The Terror of the Battlefield
However, the woman had almost lost consciousness. But upon hearing Ye Liuyun's voice, she still managed to groggily open her eyes and glance at her.
It was a final burst of energy before death.
"Am I going to die?" the female cultivator murmured to herself as she looked at the youth before her.
She could only vaguely make out the contours of his face, unable to see his features clearly.
"Hey! Calm down. Use your spiritual energy to push the pill into her stomach," Lin Qingyou reminded Ye Liuyun, seeing her panic.
After all, when a person is nervous, their thinking becomes rigid.
This was also the first time Ye Liuyun had encountered such a situation, so it was natural for her to be flustered.
Hearing Lin Qingyou's reminder, she finally remembered that although her spiritual energy was not strong, she at least had the spiritual energy of the early Spirit Stream Realm.
She wrapped the pill in spiritual energy, guided it into the female cultivator's stomach, and then used her spiritual energy to shatter the pill. The medicinal effects quickly spread throughout the woman's body.
The effect of her pill was absolutely top-tier. The moment the pill dissolved, the female cultivator's damaged internal organs and bones began to rapidly repair themselves. Her injuries were stabilized, and she stopped spitting up blood.
"Phew..." Seeing the woman's injuries recovering, Ye Liuyun heaved a heavy sigh of relief.
But then, she looked down at her own blood-soaked right hand with a slightly panicked expression.
She had never had so much blood on her hands before. She didn't have hemophobia, but the sudden sight of so much blood still gave her a suffocating sense of dizziness.
"Is this what a true life-and-death battle is like? Alas! Why must there be conflict? It seems that humans in every world love to fight amongst themselves. What does fighting ultimately bring to either side?" Ye Liuyun murmured to herself as she quickly shook the blood from her hand.
After confirming that the female cultivator was out of danger, she once again moved forward. Soon, she encountered another injured cultivator, but this time it was a cultivator from the Zixia Sect.
"Save... save me." Seeing someone approach, the Zixia Sect disciple instinctively called out for help.
Ye Liuyun hurried over, but by the time she reached him, the Zixia Sect disciple had already breathed his last.
He looked at Ye Liuyun with an expression of extreme desire to live.
That look made Ye Liuyun's heart pound. She tried to hold it in but couldn't, and she turned around and began to dry heave violently.
"Alas! Kid, you still need to get used to it. There will be many more incidents like this in the future," Lin Qingyou sighed.
With Ye Liuyun's mentality, if the Zixia Sect disciple hadn't died, she might have saved him as well. As someone from Earth, she had a reverence for life. A living person had just died right in front of her, giving her an inexplicable sense of guilt and apprehension.
"I don't get it. I can't understand. Isn't cultivation for the sake of longevity and immortality? What's the point of cultivation if it just sends you to the underworld?" Ye Liuyun asked Lin Qingyou after she finished heaving.
Lin Qingyou couldn't answer this question, because humans had always been this way. Whether in the cultivation world or the mortal world, once there was conflict, people would inevitably die.
The Earth that Ye Liuyun came from was the same, it was just that such things weren't as frequent and normal as in this world.
Ye Liuyun advanced again and soon reached the edge of a cliff. The main battlefield was just ahead. The commotion on the main battlefield was much greater, with mana running rampant everywhere, creating a picture of doomsday. This was especially true for the battles at the Dao Palace Realm, where mountains collapsed and the earth caved in wherever they went.
The once dense forest had now been completely transformed into a battlefield shrouded in the smoke of war. Raging fires were everywhere, and corpses and the wounded could be seen all over.
Although both sides wanted to minimize casualties, once cultivators saw red, it was uncontrollable, especially for those in lower realms who were easily controlled by their killing intent.
Therefore, in every sect conflict, it was always the low-level disciples who died in the greatest numbers.
"Master, help me find where Aoxue is," Ye Liuyun said. Although she was shocked by the spectacular scene before her, she was more concerned about Lin Aoxue's safety.
"I'll lend you my divine sense. You can see for yourself," Lin Qingyou offered.
The next moment, Ye Liuyun felt as if her consciousness had flown out of her body and could move about freely.
"So this is what it feels like for one's divine sense to leave the body. It's a bit like sleep paralysis," Ye Liuyun muttered.
After muttering, she directed her divine sense to spread towards the battlefield. Soon, everything before her was like it was under a magnifying glass. Everything on the battlefield was in full view, and she also saw Lin Aoxue, who was enveloped in a green light.
Lin Aoxue was fighting cultivators from the Zixia Sect and its subordinate sects. The battle between the two sects was no longer just their own. Not long after they started fighting, the four subordinate sects from both sides also led large groups of disciples to the scene.
There was no other way. The moment they became subordinate powers of a Low-tier Sect, their fortunes became tied to their main sect for better or for worse.
"Damn it!" Lin Aoxue was no longer as relaxed as before. Each use of her Feathered Immortal power consumed a large amount of her soul force.
She had already used her Feathered Immortal power three times and couldn't use it again.
Currently, among Ye Liuyun's pills, there were no pills that could replenish soul force.
The people besieging Lin Aoxue were Spirit Pattern Realm cultivators from the Zixia Sect's subordinate powers. There were four of them, and they had Lin Aoxue completely entangled.
Although Lin Aoxue was very strong, without her Feathered Immortal power, she could not fight one against four.
"Tch, so annoying. I can't, I need to rest for a bit." Lin Aoxue felt a bit tired. She took out a Vajra Pill that Ye Liuyun had refined and swallowed it.
As soon as the pill entered her stomach, Lin Aoxue felt her body become extremely heavy. She was forced to descend from the sky and land on the ground.
"Hahaha, this woman can't take it anymore. A mere early-stage Spirit Sea Realm cultivator fighting against four of us at the Spirit Pattern Realm. You should be proud to have lasted this long. Such a genius cannot be allowed to live. Kill her!" The four of them knew that Lin Aoxue must be an important disciple of the Yunxia Sect.
They had decided to kill her.
But Lin Aoxue ignored them and instead sat down cross-legged.
As for the four of them, seeing Lin Aoxue sit down and meditate in front of them, they were immediately filled with anger.
"Damn it, you bitch, looking down on us? Die!" one of the Spirit Pattern Realm cultivators shouted, flying towards Lin Aoxue with his sword.
But his sword strike was like stabbing a stubborn rock.
"Clang!" A crisp metallic sound rang out as the sword made contact with Lin Aoxue's body. At the same time, a hairpin in Lin Aoxue's hair burst forth with a green light. This light created a powerful storm that sent the young man flying.
Not only that, the storm was filled with countless wind blades that instantly shredded him into a bloody mess.
“Ah…” The man screamed in agony again and again, eventually turning into a mangled corpse that fell to the side.
A cultivator at the early Spirit Pattern Realm had died just like that. But it wasn't Lin Aoxue who had killed him; his own attack had triggered the defensive magic tool on her body.
Lin Aoxue had bought this item last time using Yun Yun's contribution points. It was a low-grade spirit artifact, the 《Green Luan Rending Wind Hairpin》.
This Spirit Tier artifact could not be actively activated, but it would activate immediately upon detecting that its owner was being attacked. Let alone the Spirit Pattern Realm, it could even injure someone at the first stage of the Dao Palace Realm.
"Senior Brother Zhao?" This scene stunned the other three.
How could they have imagined that an early-stage Spirit Sea Realm cultivator would have a Spirit Tier artifact protecting her? How were they supposed to fight this?
