Humanity’s Great Sage

In the tunnel, Lu Ye advanced with his saber, charging and smashing through, and screams rang out one after another. In just a few breaths, the noise subsided.

Liu Chang and the others who followed saw the Winged Tribe powerhouses lying in pools of blood, their deaths tragic, and they were all greatly shaken.

A ray of light came from ahead, and as Lu Ye rushed out, a warning suddenly arose in his heart.

He had anticipated this. Since the enemy had already discovered their hiding place and blocked them from the front and back, there must be an ambush outside. Therefore, he immediately urged his Dao power to protect his body.

In the next instant, several attacks struck, causing his body to shake and his blood to surge.

Before he could even stand firm, a Winged Tribe member holding a long spear appeared before him, launching a fierce attack. Lu Ye held his saber in front of him, accurately blocking the blow, but his entire body was pushed sideways for hundreds of feet by a powerful force.

The surrounding Dao power was chaotic, and figures flew over. Liu Chang and the others who had followed Lu Ye immediately fell into an encirclement.

Lu Ye suddenly exerted force, barely managing to fend off the spear-wielding Winged Tribe member, when two more figures attacked from the left and right.

Only then did he see the situation around him clearly.

Outside the island where they were hiding, two huge treasure ships were positioned horizontally. Many figures stood on the treasure ships, all of them without exception Winged Tribe cultivators, glaring at them menacingly.

This was not a place to stay for long.

Lu Ye made a decision. He slashed again, forcing back the two figures attacking from the left and right, and then flashed away to escape.

However, as soon as he moved, a beam of treasure light like a bolt of silk suddenly shot out from one of the treasure ships, sweeping towards him.

Lu Ye did not know the mystery of this treasure light, as he had never seen it before. Naturally, he did not dare to touch it casually. He forcefully plummeted downwards, narrowly avoiding the treasure light.

In the next instant, a cry of alarm came from the side.

Lu Ye turned his head in the midst of his busy escape, only to see that the cultivator surnamed Sun had been directly hit by the treasure light. The treasure light was originally invisible, but at this moment, it seemed to materialize, like a ball of flowing water, wrapping the cultivator surnamed Sun within it. No matter how he struggled, he could not escape.

The treasure light retracted, and the cultivator surnamed Sun was dragged towards the treasure ship, like a prawn caught in a large net.

Lu Ye's expression was solemn, and he secretly rejoiced that he had been quick-witted and had not been hit, otherwise it would have been troublesome.

This treasure light did not have much destructive power, but it had extremely strong binding power. It was obviously specially used to capture living creatures.

In this Source World, the hunting of the Human Race by the various races was not mainly based on killing, because they wanted to capture Human Race cultivators alive to use for sacrifices. Of course, they wanted to capture them alive.

The others did not have such good luck.

The cultivator surnamed Zhou, who was already injured, soon followed in the footsteps of the cultivator surnamed Sun, his body covered by the treasure light, losing his freedom. Then came Liu Chang.

Two breaths later, Xia He and Xiao Man also suffered one after another. The entire team, after rushing out of the island, had only lasted for ten breaths, and only Lu Ye was left struggling to support them.

He had already fought his way out of the encirclement, but at this moment, he suddenly turned back and rushed to Xia He's side. In her astonished gaze, he slashed fiercely at the treasure light.

Xia He shook her head: "Go! It's useless. This Yuan Chen Divine Light cannot be cut through with brute force."

Just as she said, the extremely sharp Pan Shan Saber slashed on the treasure light, but it was like sinking into a muddy swamp, only causing the treasure light to deform slightly, without any sign of breaking.

Not only that, Lu Ye even felt that his Pan Shan Saber was trapped in it, and it was difficult to break free for a while.

"How dare you!" An angry shout came. Several Winged Tribe cultivators around saw this and attacked one after another.

At this time, if Lu Ye wanted to escape, he could only abandon the Pan Shan Saber.

But how could he make such a choice? He had painstakingly cultivated the Pan Shan Saber to this day. To him, it was no longer just a Dao weapon, it was also the foundation of his life.

"Go!" Xia He exclaimed.

Lu Ye suddenly shook the long saber in his hand, and the power of the Talent Tree was frantically activated. Invisible roots spread out, wrapping around the saber.

In the next instant, the treasure light that could not be cut suddenly cracked open, as if it had been melted by something.

Lu Ye drew his saber and rose, the power of space around him surging, and the surrounding void stretched.

The saber light flashed, and several screams rang out. Blood splattered, and several Winged Tribe members were injured. One of them was even torn apart, and the remains fell into the sea.

Lu Ye grabbed Xia He, activated his Blood Escape Technique, and fled in one direction without looking back.

The change was sudden. Not to mention that Xia He did not react, the Winged Tribe powerhouses on the two treasure ships were also caught off guard.

No one had thought that there would be someone in this world who could cut open the Yuan Chen Divine Light.

By the time the Winged Tribe cultivators on the two treasure ships chased out, Lu Ye had already run far away with Xia He.

In their shock and anger, these Winged Tribe cultivators pursued relentlessly. If Lu Ye was alone, it would not be difficult to get rid of them. He could use Void Shift several times, but at this moment, it was somewhat inconvenient to be with Xia He.

The Winged Tribe itself was a race known for its speed, so even if Lu Ye activated the Blood Escape Technique, it was difficult to shake them off.

Moreover, the entire Cage Sea was full of enemies. If they continued to escape like this, they would encounter other powerful enemies sooner or later.

"Go underwater!" Xia He finally came back to her senses, grabbed Lu Ye's arm, and plunged straight into the sea.

With two splashes, the sea surface splashed with water, and the two figures plunged into the sea.

Once in the sea, Xia He's body surged with power, and she was like a fish, her speed suddenly increasing. She also activated her power to wrap around Lu Ye.

This should be a secret technique.

The aura of the pursuers behind them grew farther and farther away. After half an hour, the two finally managed to escape.

Somewhere underwater, Lu Ye and Xia He concealed their auras, quietly lying in wait. The latter's face was filled with pain.

Liu Chang and the others were captured, and their fate would certainly not be good. They would inevitably be used as materials for sacrifices to the heavens. But facing the powerful Winged Tribe, she had no way to rescue them, and she felt deeply powerless.

If Lu Ye had not turned back in time to save her, she would not have escaped capture.

Although they had escaped the pursuers, the two did not dare to show their faces for the time being and could only wait for a while.

However, after a moment, Lu Ye suddenly frowned and grabbed Xia He, who was somewhat distracted by her heavy mood.

The two had just left their hiding place when the water suddenly surged, turning into a ferocious giant mouth, biting down fiercely.

Lu Ye's eyes narrowed. He had not expected that there would be such danger in this sea. If the person who had secretly attacked had not leaked a bit of aura, he would not have been able to detect it.

"Sea Tribe!" Xia He belatedly realized.

Lu Ye finally saw who was attacking. Behind a piece of coral, several figures flew towards them like swimming fish. Each of them was strangely shaped, like shrimp and crabs that had become spirits. They each held Dao weapons like spears and halberds, and they were coming aggressively.

Following closely behind these Sea Tribe members were huge sea beasts, which were daunting.

Under the surge of Dao power, Lu Ye felt that the surrounding sea currents were chaotic.

Without saying a word, Xia He grabbed Lu Ye and rushed upwards: "Go!"

The underwater world was the home of the Sea Tribe. No race could compete with the Sea Tribe underwater. It was definitely a thankless task.

Many Sea Tribe members and sea beasts chased after them, using mysterious secret techniques to hinder and delay Lu Ye and Xia He's escape.

Fortunately, Xia He had also cultivated similar secret techniques. She had used them when she was escaping with Lu Ye underwater. Although her attainments in this type of secret technique were not as good as the Sea Tribe, she could still play some role.

After a moment, the two figures finally rushed out of the sea.

Before they could stand firm, divine senses spread out.

"They're over here!" A stern shout came. Lu Ye looked in the direction of the sound and felt helpless.

The Winged Tribe had not gone far and were searching for their traces nearby. If they could have stayed underwater, they might have been able to get rid of them, but the Sea Tribe was chasing them underwater, so they had no choice but to escape, exposing their whereabouts.

The two treasure ships of the Winged Tribe also sailed nearby, and figures rushed out of the ships, surrounding and killing them.

"Go!" Xia He called out to Lu Ye and led the way in one direction, with many Winged Tribe members chasing behind her, and Sea Tribe members following closely underwater, using water-based secret techniques to hinder and delay the two's movements.

Lu Ye followed Xia He silently, his brow furrowed.

Only then did he truly feel the difficult situation of the Human Race in this Cage Sea. During the hunting period, it could be said that they were surrounded by enemies everywhere.

In such a situation, once their whereabouts were exposed, they would be met with endless pursuit. No matter how strong they were, they would have a hard time making a difference in such a pursuit.

Fortunately, he had risked his life to save Xia He. Otherwise, facing this situation, he really didn't know where to go, being unfamiliar with the place.

Xia He was, after all, a person from the Source World, and she was much better off than Lu Ye.

"Where are we going?" Lu Ye followed Xia He closely and asked.

"Long Cloud Island. We can only go to Long Cloud Island!" Xia He replied.

"A big island?" Lu Ye asked again.

Xia He nodded: "In the current situation, unless we have the ability to get rid of the pursuers, we can only go to Long Cloud Island to hide. Hopefully... it hasn't been besieged!"

It was too unrealistic to get rid of the Winged Tribe's pursuit. Now that the Sea Tribe was staring at them underwater, even the way to escape into the sea was cut off, so there was no choice at all.

After thinking about it, Xia He only had Long Cloud Island to go to, but Long Cloud Island was a large island, a gathering place for many Human Race members. During the hunting period, it was easy to become a target for the major races to attack.

She only hoped that Long Cloud Island had not been besieged at the moment, otherwise, with only her and Lu Ye, they would have no chance to break in.

If so, it would be an endless escape, and there would eventually be a time when they would be exhausted and captured.

Compared to the hardships of her current situation, what made Xia He even more heartbroken was being betrayed.

When their previous hiding place was exposed, she had also suspected Lu Ye, but from the current point of view, Lu Ye was not the one who betrayed them.

Since it wasn't Lu Ye, then there was someone else.

Xia He didn't know who it was, but whoever it was, it was unacceptable to her.
