he younger one gets into trouble, the older one naturally can't sit idly by. 。When I'm not here, don't let Lu Xiaottian get away. Send two more people to watch him. 。This person is key. 。“Rest assure..."Clang!" The cracking sound of the Earth-Splitting Blade clashing with the Sunfire Sword echoed in the air. Lu Xia Tian quickly pulled away from Yuan Hao, gazing at him in surprise. "You're actually attacking me now Do you think you have a chance to win"

Although he said that, he never relaxed his vigilance towards Yuan Hao. In the Blood-Colored Forbidden Zone, there were many treacherous situations, and countless people had died at the hands of their own sect members. Besides, Yuan Hao belonged to a different sect than him.

Lu Xiaitian had always been wary of other cultivators, but he never expected Yuan Hao to attack him at this time and under these circumstances. Because he had just recently split his main and deputy primordial spirits through the practice of Lichen Divine Art, he preferred solitude for his cultivation as it was not suitable to have other cultivators nearby. The two factions' disciples had been encamped near the location the previous night. Being a quiet person by nature, Lu Xiaitian sought out a cave some distance away to cultivate alone. This also allowed him to avoid Luo Qian, who he found disagreeable.

Over these past few days, a portion of cultivators had converged from outside. There were over twenty cultivators from the Ancient Sword Sect, while those from the Lingxiao Palace neared forty. In terms of both numbers and the quality of their elite disciples, they surpassed the Ancient Sword Sect. Moreover, the cultivators from both sects weren't far from here. Yuan Hao couldn't take him down in a short period. He could fully charge past Yuan Hao's obstruction and converge with other cultivators from the Lingxiao Palace.

“You'll know after trying it. Even Dugu Han fell into your hands, so there must be quite a few spiritual items in your possession. My family happens to need some Foundation Establishment Pills, so I can only resort to using you as a resource. In fact, the Liuyang Sword isn't all of my strength. My true killer weapon is the Liuyang Double-Arm Swords! Your Earth-Splitting Knife will only be able to block one of them.”

Yuan Hao let out a hearty laugh and with a flick of his hand, he summoned another weapon that was virtually identical to the Lie Yang Sword in both form and aura. The Lie Yang Shuang Gong Jian was naturally one he had only recently completed refining. After all, these were two extremely rare weapons, and being a matched set, their refinement required special techniques, making the process considerably longer. It wasn't until these past few days that he had finally achieved complete success.

Lu XiaTian understood perfectly. With the day approaching when they would leave the Blood Forbidden Land, they were about to reach a nearby cultivator base with several hundred people. This was Yuan Hao's last chance to make his move. If he died, without a leader, even with the strength of Yuan Hao's trusted lieutenants, Li Yang Jian, Su Qing and Wu Yan wouldn't be able to do anything to him. This plan was indeed quite good.

"Brother Lu, Sister Su is quarreling with the disciples of Gujian Sect. They're about to fight! You should go take a look." Just as the two were drawing their swords and ready to clash, Zhu Yuchun rushed into the cave shouting, "Yuan Hao, what are you doing Why are you fighting with Brother Lu"

"It's nothing. I just want the spirit on my hands." Lu Xia Tian said coldly.

"Humph, since you're here, stay and join me. I don't mind killing one more." Yuan Hao let out a cold snort, one of his blazing suns swords stabbing straight at Zhu Yu Chun.

Spring Monster cried out and brandished two white spirit blades, but they were shattered in an instant by the Burning Sun Sword.

Lu Xiaotian's eyes flashed with a hint of sarcasm. While blocking another Blazing Sun Sword with his Earth-Splitting Saber, he swung the Qingjiao artifact towards Yuan Hao's neck.

Yuan Hao snorted angrily, and had to control both of his Ri Yang Swords to fight Lu Xia Tian at the same time.

Chu Yu Chun lowered his head and drank again, then drew two more spiritual swords to strike at Yuan Hao. At this time, Yuan Hao was held down by Lu Xia Tian, a blade of blazing sun sword fighting against the Earth-Splitting Knife in a stalemate. Although the other blade, fighting with Lu Xia Tian's Azure Halberd, had the upper hand, it would still take at least five or six more strikes to sever the Azure Halberd. He was simply unable to defend himself for the moment.

"Lu Senior Brother, look closely, how I killed this Yuan Hao fellow."

As soon as they saw Yuan Hao, he froze in place. Zhu Yu Chun was overjoyed and immediately brandished his two spirit blades, rushing forward. However, just as the two top-grade spirit blades were about to strike Yuan Hao, they suddenly veered away from him and shot towards Lu Xia Tian's chest at an even faster speed.

"At this point, there's no need to pretend anymore." Yuan Hao let out a chuckle. "Lu Xiaoteng, I bet you never thought that Zhu Yuchun was actually from my ancient sword sect, did you"

"I didn't expect that, but do you think two top-grade spirit weapons could hurt me" Lu Xia Tian sneered and directly summoned the Star Lamp magic weapon. The two top-grade spirit swords hit the light curtain, being bounced back without suspense. The light curtain could withstand the attacks of magic weapons, but the power of the two top-grade spirit weapons was not small either, only making the light curtain dim slightly. This level of attack could withstand four or five hits individually. Of course, if several magic weapons attacked at the same time, it would be unbearable. This Star Lamp was inferior to Su Qing's Golden Bell defensive magic weapon. After all, he didn't have a Jindan stage elder in his family.

"Defensive magical artifact!" Both Yuan Hao and Zhu Yuchun's pupils shrank simultaneously, their eyes revealing a greedy gleam. Among the elite disciples from various sects who entered the blood-colored forbidden land, there were many offensive magical artifacts, but defensive ones were rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. In a crucial moment, they could save a life, so their value was far greater than ordinary magical artifacts.

“Even the supreme spiritual artifacts are useless, then what about magical artifacts” Zhu Yu Chun’s face was filled with ruthlessness as he took out a pair of brown hammers. They were indeed a pair of magical artifacts. "In any case, you will surely die today."

Yuan Hao was now full of confidence. His two blazing suns swords were already able to firmly suppress Lu Xiaottian, and now with Zhu YuChun's assistance, their strength exceeded Lu Xiaottian's by a significant margin, completely capable of crushing him. Previously, at the camp, he was responsible for leading patrols and found an excuse to leave temporarily, secretly informing Zhu YuChun, all in preparation for this moment.

"Your strength is impressive, but it's a pity." Lu Xiaoxian saw Zhuchun's sacrificial hammer and was not surprised at all, instead a hint of mockery appeared on his face.

"What a pity" Yuan Hao saw Lu Xiaoteng's calm expression, and couldn't help but feel a little drumbeat in his heart. There were no other cultivators coming outside, he didn't know what Lu Xiaoteng relied on, to be so indifferent to the danger in front of him.

"It's a pity that your cultivation is still lacking." Lu Xiaoteng smiled faintly. The reason he had waited until now before making a killing move was simply to see what trick Zhu Yuchun was playing. He had long suspected Zhu Yuchun. In the previous dangerous place, the piece of cloth he picked up was from Zhu Yuchun's body, but Zhu Yuchun hadn't noticed the flaw he left yet.

“You're courting death! I want to see what you have to counter my simultaneous attack with four magical artifacts.” Yuan Hao’s face contorted with anger, he hadn’t expected Lu Xia Tian to dare look down on him.

"Yuan Senior Brother, time is of the essence. Delaying will only cause further complications. Don't waste time arguing with him." Zhu Yu Chun thought about Lu Xiao Tian's various responses to crises in the past and couldn't help but feel a chill. However, he couldn't figure out what Lu Xiao Tian could possibly rely on in this situation.

Having said that, Zhu Yu Chun immediately swung his twin hammers toward Lu Xia Tian. The experience of the group was quite rich; although Lu Xia Tian’s screen had blocked his top-grade spirit blade just now, the screen was a bit unstable. If it were a magic weapon, its power would be several times greater, enough to break through its defenses.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lu Xiaitian certainly didn't underestimate Yuan Hao, but Yuan Hao's cultivation was indeed a bit lacking. If it were Dugu Han, upon seeing Zhu Yu Chun, he would immediately choose to break through. The Yuan Hao in front of him was indeed powerful, and his cultivation talent far surpassed any young cultivator he had ever seen. Just being at the tenth level of Qi refining, he outshone all other Qi refining cultivators.

He is ultimately just a Qi Refinement tenth layer cultivator. As long as one's cultivation level is several layers higher than his, no matter how strong their combat strength is, it will be useless against him.

Facing the onslaught of four magical weapons, Lu Xia Tian's lips curled into a slight smile. He raised his finger, and with a sound like flowing water striking stone, a crisp, rounded sound rang out.

"Ice Soul Profound Sound!" A divine sense attack, intangible and unseen, with no warning. By the time you hear the sound of flowing water, it's already too late.

Zhù Yù Chūn, a cultivator who had reached the pinnacle of Qi refinement, was barely affected. However, seeing Yuan Hào fall into a dazed state, he immediately cried out in alarm. He hurriedly controlled his twin hammers, attempting to block Lù Xiǎo Tiān's attack and buy Yuan Hào some time, while anxiously shouting, "Senior Brother Yuan, wake up!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“You think you could save him Think about yourself!” Lu XiaTian let out a cold snort with a blank expression, as his crackle knife, Qinggu’s double hammers, and Zhu Yuchun's weapons clashed. A curved blade flew in an odd arc, slashing towards Zhu Yuchun's head.

"You, you can actually control three weapons at the same time!" Zhu Yuchun's eyes widened in disbelief. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. This defied all logic and reason. However, he was quick-witted. Seeing that the situation was dire, his body instantly shifted several feet to the right. The curved blade grazed his body, but the sharp qi still severed his left arm.

Chu Yu was shrieked as he retreated violently, the sharp blade not only severed his left arm but also churned up his internal mana. Thankfully, he had moved several feet away just before, otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

At this time, Yuan Hao had also recovered as before, with the same look of terror on his face. Although he didn't know how Lu Xiaottian had done it, he could realize that he had been momentarily lost in thought just now, his divine sense falling into a state of chaos for an instant, unable to control himself. Facing such a terrifying opponent as Lu Xiaottian, what did a momentary lapse in concentration mean He knew it all too well. If not for the fact that Lu Xiaottian's main attention was focused on Zhu Yuchun just now, he would have been dismembered by now.

When Yuan Hao came to his senses, he was terrified. He made the same decision as Zhu Yuchun and retreated violently toward the cave mouth.

Lu Xiaoxiao frowned and chased after him. Perhaps other cultivators realized that Yuan Hao had been gone for a while and started looking for him. They found Lu Xiaoxiao at the edge of his cave. At this time, they saw Yuan Hao and Zhu Yuchun, who had lost an arm, both carrying their magic weapons and retreating quickly. Lu Xiaoxiao followed closely behind with murderous intent, and couldn't help but gasp. Why were these few people, who had always been at peace, fighting each other And it seemed that Yuan Hao and Zhu Yuchun were being chased out by Lu Xiaoxiao.

What's even more bizarre is that Yuan Hao controlled not one, but two Blazing Sun Swords, while Zhu Yu Chun surprisingly also had a pair of double hammers hovering above his head. These powerful figures were actually driven to a state of utter panic and fled in disarray by Lu Xiao Tian.

This bizarre scene quickly attracted the disciples of nearby Gu Jianzong and Lingxiao Palace.

"Yuan shixiong, how are you"

"Senior Brother Lu, this, what's wrong"

The two factions of cultivators, who had previously been in a cooperative state, immediately faced off against each other. Su Qing, Wu Yan, and other cultivators were shocked beyond measure, but they also chose to support Lu Xia Tian first, directly taking out their weapons, with the air thick with tension as if they would fight at any moment.

Yuan Hao directly retreated into the crowd of ancient sword sect disciples. As for Zhu Yuchun, his face was ashen, he put away his double hammer weapon, and actually chose to retreat to one side of the Ancient Sword Sect.

"Yuan brother, what about the deeply hidden Zhu Shijie Doesn't he have anything to say" Lu Xiaoteng scanned the two who had retreated into the Gu Jianzong disciples.

Zhu Yuchun regretted it deeply in his heart. He never expected that things would change so dramatically. Perhaps he shouldn't have been involved in the plot against Lu Xiaoteng from the beginning. Now he was caught between a rock and a hard place. Looking at Su Qing, Wu Yan, and even Luo Qian's angry gazes, Zhu Yuchun felt like sitting on pins and needles.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“Things have come to this, there’s no point in talking anymore. If you want to make a move, feel free to come at me.” Although Yuan Hao said this, the fear on his face was impossible to hide.

"Lu Shidi, what exactly happened" Su Qing said doubtfully, and the others looked at him with suspicion.

"It's nothing, I just noticed that Lu Xiaotian had many spiritual creatures on him. Since I knew Yuan Senior Brother before, I wanted to take the opportunity to attack him, but he saw through me."

Yu Chun had lost an arm and was bleeding heavily. His face was now pale. At this point, regret was useless. Once things were exposed, he would never be able to regain his standing in Lingxiao Palace. For now, he could only rely on the Gujian Sect.

All around, a deathly silence descended. The air seemed to thicken and stagnate.

Everyone, including Su Qing and Wu Yan who thought they understood Lu Xia Tian, stared at him in shock. They were well aware of Yuan Hao's strength; among the thousands of Qi Refining cultivators who entered the Blood-colored Forbidden Land, he was one of the top experts. The power of the Burning Sun Sword was not comparable to ordinary magic weapons. Lu Xia Tian's strength had been evident during his battle with the Corpse Lion Crocodilian Demon. At the same time, he operated two magic weapons and possessed extraordinary spells.

Perhaps he was a bit stronger than Yuan Hao, but not by much. However, in front of them, Zhu Yu Chun had two large hammers hanging above his head. The two of them teamed up and were still defeated, running away in disarray. Yuan Hao looked scared, and it seemed like he had lost all will to fight. Zhu Yu Chun even had one arm severed, blood streaming down his body. Everything that was happening was beyond everyone's comprehension.

“You, Yuan Hao, have betrayed us! After all this time fighting side by side, you harbor treachery in your heart. And you, Zhu Yuchun, colluding with outsiders to harm your own sect members. You are traitors, and I will not let you get away with it.”

Su Qing was shocked, then enraged, her face turning blue. She detested such acts of betrayal and scheming at the last moment. Wu Yan, Zhu Ling, even Luo Qian – all of them had suffered losses at the hands of Meng Yu in the Xuanbing Gate before. Now, even Gu Jianmen's own members were resorting to this tactic! How could this not make them united against a common enemy However, unlike Meng Yu, whose schemes had succeeded only to be thwarted by Lu Xia Tian, even with Zhu Yu Chun's defection, their side still held overwhelming strength.

Especially when Yuan Hao and Zhu Yu Chun teamed up, they were not even a match for Lu Xia Tian. At the same time as being unbelievable, his confidence soared.

“Yes, hand over Yuan Hao and Zhu Yuchun, or don't blame us for taking action!” Wu Yan and the others each brought out their magic weapons and said with a menacing look.
