Chapter 578 - 578 270 An Extremely Generous Task Reward
Chapter 578: Chapter 270: An Extremely Generous Task Reward Chapter 578: Chapter 270: An Extremely Generous Task Reward One by one, the Star Realm Army’s experts swelled in momentum, roaring continuously.
Even the Heavenly Immortal experts nearby were surging with energy, joining the fierce battle between the True Immortal Level Star Realm Army and the Blood Prison Army.
After continuous fierce battles, the Rashamon Clan’s Blood Prison Army had greatly exhausted their spiritual energy and their strength was no longer as formidable as before.
Furthermore, with the Immortal techniques of the Heavenly Immortal experts, they could not possibly withstand the onslaught with their physical bodies alone.
Following the entry of the Heavenly Immortal experts from the Heavenly Falling Star Domain Alliance Army into the battle, the scales of war quickly tipped in their favor.
Soon, members of the Blood Prison Army started dying, and as one after another fell, the battlefield quickly became one-sided, akin to an avalanche.
The death rate of the Blood Prison Army quickened, and before long, all of the True Immortal Level Blood Prison Army had perished.
The victorious Star Realm warriors hardly had time to rest as they quickly grouped together, forming a great array, and charged towards the two Rashamon Clan Commanders.
A hundred-man array of the Star Realm Army was formidable, comparable even to a Profound Immortal.
Two hundred-man squads combined were akin to two Profound Immortals joining the fray.
Together with the two Profound Immortal warriors Liu Haiqing and Ke Mingluo, as well as the main ship of the Star Realm Army causing disruptions, the already disadvantaged Blood Prison Army Commanders faced the final straw that broke the camel’s back.
They burst out with formidable power in great unwillingness, roaring continuously, yet they were unable to break through the reinforced space barrier and were crushed by the combined forces of the Star Realm warriors, like birds trapped in a cage.
The battle was extremely brutal, with the backlash from the Profound Immortal Level Rashamon Clan Commanders being terribly fierce.
Even Liu Haiqing and Ke Mingluo sustained injuries.
The Star Realm warriors, who had formed the great array, were spitting blood repeatedly.
After all, they were merely True Immortals themselves.
Fortunately, after forming the great array, their injuries were distributed among them; otherwise, a large number of the Star Realm Army would have likely perished.
In the end, Liu Haiqing was the first to kill a Rashamon Clan Commander, and soon after, the remaining Rashamon Clan Commander could not hold on and was quickly killed by Liu Haiqing and Ke Mingluo working together.
After the two had killed the Rashamon Clan Commanders, Lu Yi could no longer hold on.
His face was pale as he deactivated the control of the Sky Tunneling Tablet and the Source Array Map.
This time he had truly exerted all his strength, and now only a little bit of spiritual power remained within him, his complexion extremely pale.
Although Lu Yi did not personally enter the battlefield, this battle was the most difficult one he had ever faced.
Not just Lu Yi, Liu Haiqing and Ke Ming were both bathed in blood, floating in the vacuum, gasping for breath repeatedly.
Near them, many seriously injured Star Realm warriors could not even maintain their forms and could only be supported by their comrades of the Star Realm Army to prevent them from being blown away by the spiritual wind.
The condition of the Heavenly Immortals was also poor; continual battles had left them pale, with many bearing numerous wounds.
In the vacuum, numerous corpses floated, limbs torn apart, wrapped in the cold vacuum, blown by the spiritual wind and scattering in all directions.
Most of these corpses were from the Rashamon Clan, but there were also a few from the Star Realm Army and some Heavenly Immortal experts from the Heavenly Falling Star Domain.
The two squads together had brought more than five hundred Heavenly Immortal Level experts, but now, only a little over three hundred survived, nearly one-third had died.
One can imagine how massive the losses were.
However, their gains were equally substantial; both squads of the Blood Prison Army were annihilated, including the two Profound Immortal Level Blood Prison Army Commanders who could not escape.
And it goes without saying for the other Heavenly Immortal Level members of the Rashamon Clan.
Once the space barrier disappeared, a small number of Rashamon Clan flying boats turned into streams of light and vanished into the vacuum; Lu Yi and others glanced at them but did not pursue.
These were controlled by Great Power Level members of the Rashamon Clan, unlikely to stir much trouble; of course, their expenditure this time was too great, leaving them powerless to pursue further.
Fortunately, two main ships of the Rashamon Clan, due to Lu Yi’s disruption of the great arrays, were now unable to start and were quietly floating in the cold, profound darkness.
Liu Haiqing and the others recovered a bit, then looked around, and shared a glance with Ke Mingluo, both bursting out in laughter.
“We won!”
One by one, the Star Realm warriors and the Heavenly Immortal experts laughed, cheering endlessly.
Lu Yi also showed a smile.
Afterward, Liu Haiqing and Ke Mingluo approached Lu Yi.
Liu Haiqing said with a smile, “Young Master Lu Yi, we owe it all to you this time. Otherwise, we couldn’t have captured the two Blood Prison Army Commanders.”
“Young Master Lu Yi, your mastery of array formations is too high! Are you considering joining the Star Realm Army? If you decide to join, come to our unit,” Ke Mingluo looked at Lu Yi expectantly.
Lu Yi’s mouth twitched slightly: “I probably won’t be going to the Star Realm Army.”
“That’s really too bad,” Ke Mingluo said with regret.
Liu Haiqing looked at Ke Mingluo as if he were looking at an idiot.
After all, Lu Yi is the direct disciple of the Second Miss; how could he possibly join the Star Realm Army?
Even if he joined the Star Realm Army, he certainly wouldn’t be in a squad; was this guy’s brain damaged earlier?
Liu Haiqing looked at Lu Yi’s pale face, concerned, “Young Master Lu Yi, are you all right?”
“It’s nothing, just a bit overexerted.”
“Well, let’s head back to rest first.”
“Right, let’s go back and recover for a while. We’re all worn out from battling these days; we need some time to adjust.”
Liu Haiqing and Ke Mingluo dispatched Star Realm Army experts to take over the unmanned Rashamon Jade Boats, and then the group returned to the main ship.
As soon as Lu Yi returned to his room, he was immediately surrounded by Liu Ningshuang and three others.
“Lu Yi, are you alright?” Yun Xi asked, looking worried.
The other three also caressed Lu Yi, checking for any injuries on his body.
Lu Yi grinned and let them caress him, saying, “Of course I’m alright, I’m so strong, and this time I made a great contribution.”
Seeing that Lu Yi was indeed fine, the four of them finally felt relieved.
Liu Ningshuang sighed and said, “It’s a pity that our strength is still not enough, even dealing with a Heavenly Immortal is a bit strenuous.”
If others heard this, they would surely be speechless. It’s outrageous enough that Tribulation Crossing Practitioners could battle a Heavenly Immortal, yet these four were not satisfied.
Unfortunately, Lu Yi’s strength was even more monstrous. Even though their strength was remarkable, at this moment, it was still difficult for them to help him confront a great enemy.
Seeing the four looking somewhat dejected, Lu Yi remembered his prior idea and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, I am currently deducing a Cultivation Technique. If successful, your strength will increase significantly, and you will be able to fight alongside me.”
At these words, all four’s eyes lit up.
“Really?!”
“What Cultivation Technique? Weird junior brother, have you deduced it already? Let me see.”
“Not yet. I am still in the process of deducing it,” Lu Yi said, smiling at their excited expressions.
They all looked disappointed.
“What kind of Cultivation Technique is it?” Donggong Ming Yue asked curiously.
Lu Yi chuckled, “Dual Cultivation Technique.”
“?????” The four froze, their minds filled with question marks, their gazes towards Lu Yi gradually changing as if they were looking at a weirdo.
“Weird junior brother! I shouldn’t have had any expectations.”
“Exactly! Junior brother is so bad, how could a Dual Cultivation Technique possibly increase someone’s strength so much? And to battle alongside you?” Donggong Ming Yue looked at Lu Yi with contempt, “Obviously you have some strange thoughts.”
Yun Xi nodded repeatedly, and even Liu Ningshuang looked at Lu Yi with a strange expression.
Lu Yi felt wronged. He explained his thoughts to them, and their expressions finally eased.
“So that’s how it is, through the Yin Yang Law, and including military formations? Weird junior brother, you really are a genius!”
“Junior brother’s idea is indeed feasible.”
“Then, doesn’t this mean my strength could also be augmented by junior brother? Hahahaha! Just wait and see me kick a Heavenly Immortal and punch a True Immortal!” Donggong Ming Yue placed her hands on her hips, threw her head back, and laughed as if she could see her invincible future.
“Sister Mingyue really is too amazing,” Yun Xi praised calmly.
“But then, your powers will probably be the same origin as mine and be subject to my constraints,” Lu Yi warned.
“What of it? If it weren’t for weird senior brother, our strength wouldn’t be nearly this strong now,” Jian Ruyu said unconcernedly.
Liu Ningshuang looked at Lu Yi: “If it’s for junior brother, I naturally have no issue.”
Yun Xi and Donggong Ming Yue also nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Lu Yi said no more.
Honestly, Lu Yi hadn’t practiced Dual Cultivation for some time and was quite missing it.
If he were at Ling Luo Peak, Lu Yi would definitely need to treat himself and them well, but with the great battle not yet over, Lu Yi also worried that an enemy might attack during their Dual Cultivation, which would be very troublesome.
Thus, each of them returned to their own cultivation.
Liu Ningshuang and the others felt a lot of pressure. Although Lu Yi’s Cultivation Base didn’t increase much faster than theirs, his strength increased too quickly, making them feel increasingly unable to assist Lu Yi.
However, Lu Yi’s previous words had given them hope.
Meanwhile, Lu Yi returned to his room, blissfully checking the task rewards.
This time, Lu Yi had directly annihilated two Rashamon Clan squadrons and destroyed the Defense Arrays of two Rashamon Clan main ships, so one could imagine how ample the task rewards were.
Lu Yi counted them up, finding there were four times of designated Immortal Skill Level +3, four times of designated Cultivation Technique Level +3, two times of designated Immortal Skill Level +4, and two times of designated Cultivation Technique Level +4.
There were even five instances of a designated Law improvement by 10%.
In addition to these, there were upgrades in comprehension of Array Tao Law, and one complete Innate Array Pattern.
This Innate Array Pattern was a Defensive Array Pattern, which could allow Lu Yi to comprehend the essence of Defensive Arrays, very useful for Lu Yi’s comprehension of Array Tao.
Furthermore, there was an increase in the comprehension of the Law of Power, High Grade Immortal Shattered Boxing Gloves, and the Immortal Scripture .
Besides these, there were several Rashamon Fruit Trees, some Immortal Gold, and a certain amount of Star Marrow.
Overall, the rewards were naturally incredibly generous.
Forget Heavenly immortals; even True Immortals might not have as many assets as Lu Yi gained from this one reward.
Just the High Grade Immortal Device alone was already an extremely precious existence, and it was a pair of boxing gloves that Lu Yi could use.
Lu Yi naturally stored them well.
In addition to this, the also gave Lu Yi a pleasant surprise. As he was about to deduce a Yin and Yang Dual Cultivation Immortal Scripture, this Yin Yang Law Immortal Scripture came just in time, and Lu Yi could start comprehending the essence of this Immortal Scripture to prepare for his own deducing of the Dual Cultivation Immortal Scripture.
