Eternal Sovereign

"Lin Tianlu!" The loss of the ten drops of blood from his heart was bound to cause his blood demon heart to be incomplete. Although it would not be incomplete, he would never be able to reach the peak of the Astral Transformation Realm again. He would only be an ordinary Astral Transformation Realm.

Unless he could think of a way to make up for the blood demon's heart.

However, Barley's talent could be considered the top within a city. Looking at the entire continent, it was mediocre. How could he have the ability to research a method to complete the Blood Demon Heart?

One could imagine how enraged Barley was right now.

"All of you, die!" In his fury, Barley didn't hold back a single bit. His surging Innate Qi was mixed with his yet to evolve Houtian Qi, and it created a terrifying bloody wind that blew away all of the surrounding Golden Forest Army members.

Amidst the wild gales of blood energy, there were even wisps of blood formed from the blood energy. Many of the Heavenly Axis Realm members were pierced through by the blood energy and became hornets' nests. They didn't even make a sound before falling to the ground and never getting up again.

There were some Heavenly Axis Realm experts who were still alive, but they were also severely injured by this person's attack. They no longer had the strength to fight back.

In the blink of an eye, only Lin Tian Lu and Barley remained.

Lin Tianlu immediately took out a pill and consumed it. In the next moment, Lin Tianli's eyes were bloodshot as the muscles on his body bulged slightly. True energy continuously gushed out from the pores on his body like steam!

"Heaven's Mandate Pill!" Barley's pupils contracted.

The Destiny Pill was an extremely special type of pill. It was not classified into any grade because there was no way to accurately classify it.

In a short period of time, one's martial arts cultivation and strength would increase, but after some time, one's entire being would become dispirited. Not only that, but one would also consume a large amount of life force, as well as the source of life. This was not a good thing for martial artists, because it was destined to cause difficulties in improving their martial artists in the future.

If Lin Tian Lu had originally been confident in breaking through to the Innate Realm within ten years, then after consuming the Heaven's Mandate Pill, once ten minutes had passed, Lin Tian Lu's breakthrough to the Innate Realm would have extended to twenty years.

The older one was to break through to the Xiantian realm, the smaller their potential would be.

Those who could break through to the Innate Realm at the age of fifty-six would basically be stuck at the true qi realm for their entire lives, unable to reach the origin realm, not to mention the Astral Transformation realm.

The Destiny Pill was used to risk one's life. The aftereffects would be great and at the same time, it would be extremely precious. There were only a few of them in the entire Lin Clan.

In order to survive, he could only consume the Heaven's Mandate Pill.

With the effects of the Destiny Pill, a large amount of life force and a bit of life force was released like steam. At the same time, Lin Tianlu's martial arts cultivation also continued to rise, in the blink of an eye he was on the verge of reaching the fourth stage of the Innate realm.

"This is bad!" Barley was shocked, and immediately turned into a bloody shadow, pouncing forward. He could not let Lin Tian Lu's cultivation reach the peak, otherwise, his life would be in danger.

A bloody aura filled the air as Barley's right hand turned into a bloody claw. He arrived in front of Lin Tianlu and swiped down with his claw, causing a sonic boom to echo out.

Barley was very fast, but Lin Tianlu's reaction wasn't slow either.

Rumble rumble rumble!

Blue lightning exploded out from Lin Tianlu's body, enveloping his entire body. Soon after, the lightning turned into a lightning blade. Following Lin Tianlu's will, it chopped towards Ba Lei's blood claw.

In the blink of an eye, a blood-red light radiated in all directions as lightning surged. The two of them were struck by the remnant ripples and were forced to retreat. Upon closer inspection, Lin Tian Lu had retreated the most.

Obviously, in the previous match, Lin Tianlu had been at a disadvantage. However, at that time, Lin Tianlu was only at the fourth level of the Xiantian realm.

After this exchange, Lin Tianlu's martial arts cultivation had officially stepped into the fourth level of the quasi-Innate realm. The massive consumption of Xiantian Qi was also recovering at an astonishing speed.

In contrast, Barley's Xiantian ki was constantly being used up.

Lin Tian Lu knew he did not have much time left, he immediately took action, Ba Lei once again using his Blood Claw to attack Lin Tian Lu.

Chen Yi was hiding inside the cave, listening to the loud battle outside. He couldn't help but cover his ears with his hands. Chen Yi's body could not help but stiffen a little when the quasi-innate pressure in the air swept over from time to time, forcefully resisting the quasi-innate pressure. There were several times where Chen Yi was almost pressed down.

"This is not a true Xiantian master, how strong is a true Xiantian master?" Chen Yi sucked in a deep breath as he observed the two of them with great difficulty. He noticed that Lin Tianlu was gaining the upper hand.

"Indeed, this Lin Tianlu still has a method of putting his life on the line." Chen Yi couldn't help but rejoice. As a result, the confidence in his heart increased by another level.

Outside the cave, Barley was not stupid. After he realized that he could not easily take down Lin Tian Lu in a frontal confrontation, he started a guerrilla warfare.

The Destiny Pill had a time limit, and Barley was obviously determined to delay it until it failed.

At that time, Lin Tianlu would be like a fish on the chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered.

With the help of the Blood Demon Heart, Barley's entire body turned into a pool of blood, which was then divided into countless streaks.

Lin Tianlu roared in rage as lightning erupted around his body. The powerful Innate Qi transformed into dense lightning bolts that destroyed everything in their surroundings.

Even though Barley had quite a number of bloodwater clones, when Lin Tianlu unleashed a large area of ultimate killing techniques, all of his bloodwater clones were still blasted apart. Barley appeared, his face pale, blood trickling out from the corner of his mouth and he looked to be in a sorry state.

Lin Tian Lu was not much better off. With so much Innate Qi exploding out at once, Lin Tian Lu did not have much left. Even with the effects of the Heaven's Mandate Pill, his Innate Qi was constantly recovering, and he was running out of steam.

As time passed, the injuries on Barley's body became more and more severe, and Lin Tian Lu's face also became paler and paler.

A few minutes later, Barley's body had already been pierced through by the lightning spear that was formed by Lin Tian Lu's true energy. Threads of thunder and lightning energy circled around the wound, making it difficult for Barley's wound to heal.

For Barley, who already possessed the Blood Demon Body, such an injury was already extremely severe.

Lin Tian Lu's aura decreased drastically at the same time. He had clearly almost stepped into the fifth stage of the Lesser Innate realm before and in a blink of an eye, he dropped to the third stage. He was even falling to the second stage of the Lesser Innate realm.

This was only due to the cultivation of martial arts. The side effects of the Heaven's Mandate Pill caused Lin Tian Lu's legs to go limp as he fell to the ground, having a difficult time even moving.

"Hahaha, looks like your Destiny Pellet is only of low quality." Ba Lei laughed from the joy of his misfortune. Luckily, it was only a low grade Heaven's Mandate Pill. If it was a middle or high grade pill, he probably wouldn't be able to last until now.

Barley's face was ferocious, and his tone was cold. "I was too careless before, but I won't now. Just in case, please die!"

Lin Tian Lu said with hatred: "Damn it, I couldn't even kill you."

Ba Lei laughed coldly, "This means that your father's life should not end like this. Once I reach the Clasping Yuan Realm or even the Astral Transformation Realm, your Lin Family will be annihilated!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the bloody aura around Barley's body suffused into a dense cluster of blood strings. The blood strings were like needles as they pierced towards Lin Tianlu.

Lin Tian Lu stared at Ba Lei, as if he was unwilling to see himself die like this. His heart was filled with despair.

Right at this moment, Lin Tian Lu's eyes widened. A purple lightning as thick as an adult man's leg shot out from behind Ba Lei, its target was actually Ba Lei!

He had been severely injured. Although his martial arts cultivation was at the fourth stage of the Innate realm, the transformed Xiantian Zhen Qi inside his body was almost depleted, leaving only his Houtian Zhen Qi. His strength had been greatly reduced, and with the addition of his own injuries, his strength was still limited compared to that of the great circle of the Innate realm.

"This is bad!" Sensing the threat, Ba Lei immediately turned the blood veins that were originally trying to kill Lin Tianlu into a blood shield, blocking in front of him.

Boom!

A streak of profound lightning heavily struck the blood shield in front of Ba Lei, completely shattering it in one blow. Before Ba Lei could heave a sigh of relief, a second blade of profound lightning followed closely behind.

"Who the hell is ambushing me!" Barley was alarmed and furious. He could only hastily circulate the blood qi to cover his body, preparing to form the blood qi armor.

However, before the Blood Vapour Armor was fully formed, the second bolt of black lightning had already struck Barley.

Without Xiantian Zhen Qi, the blood qi armor formed with the Houtian Zhen Qi would not even have a 100% defensive power, not to mention that only half of the blood qi armor was formed.

It was only natural that not only did the second strike destroy the Blood Vest, it also severely injured Barley.

Barley screamed miserably as he was sent flying by the second profound lightning strike. The clothes on his body turned into ashes, revealing his bloodied body. One could vaguely see the bones.

Not waiting for Barley to rejoice that he had not died, yet another set of profound lightning descended with a loud rumble.

"No!" The blood shield formed from his Houtian Zhen Qi could at most block an attack at the early stage of the great circle of the Refinement Realm. This was only because Barley was not injured, and his Zhen Qi was plentiful.

But Barley was already heavily injured, and his innate energy was very little. His Houtian energy was also consumed tremendously.

Thus, this time around, the blood shield was still unable to block the Xuan Lightning.

Boom boom!

A large hole was blasted through the ground by the Xuan Thunder, and at the bottom of the hole was the dying Barley.

A dignified fourth level Xiantian master, his skin was torn open and his flesh and bones were visible. His left arm was broken from the explosion, and it seemed as if he was on the verge of death.

Barley turned his head around with great difficulty. He was very unwilling, he was clearly going to win, he was clearly going to kill Lin Tianlu.

And then, Barley's pupils contracted, as he saw a youth slowly walk over from afar.

It was actually Chen Yi, who he had never taken seriously before!
