A moment later, Lu Ye ended the communication with his Second Senior Sister and stood in place, lost in thought.

As sunlight broke through the clouds, casting the first ray of sunshine in two months on this domain, the Heaven and Earth's Will of the Blood Refinement World bestowed a faint trace of guidance upon him, his doppelganger, and even Lann Qiyue.

What is certain is that whether it was his doppelganger or the guidance felt by Lann Qiyue, they all pointed to the same location.

This matter is quite intriguing.

Living creatures have a survival instinct, and so does the Heaven and Earth's Will. The will of the Blood Refinement World is far less clear and strong than Number Nine. Even though it holds the home-field advantage, it is suppressed everywhere by Number Nine in the struggle, unable to impose Heavenly Punishment on the Nine Provinces cultivators invading this world.

And as of today, this suppression has undoubtedly become more thorough because the black clouds symbolizing the might of this world's heavens are no longer intact.

If the situation continues like this, the Heaven and Earth's Will of the Blood Refinement World will inevitably fail to make any waves and will ultimately be devoured completely by Number Nine.

So is it instinctively seeking change? This faint trace of guidance is its way of seeking change! It wants to use the living creatures of this world for a final resistance.

The target is the Sacred Seeds of the Blood Refinement World!

But because this world's Heaven and Earth's Will is not clear enough, it cannot distinguish between friend and foe, so it can only bestow this guidance upon all creatures with saintliness.

This is also the root cause why he, his doppelganger, and even Lann Qiyue felt it at the same time.

In other words, the perception he and Lann Qiyue had, the Sacred Seeds of the Blood Race have it too! At this crucial moment when the domain is undergoing great change, with native creatures suffering heavy casualties and the Sacred Seeds on the brink of extinction, once the Sacred Seeds sense this guidance, they will naturally make suitable choices.

Lu Ye's thoughts gradually became clear, faintly gaining Insight into the truth of the matter.

He raised his hand to tap on the battlefield marking, hurriedly sending messages in all directions, and at the same time flew forward following the faint sense in his heart.

He had recently been troubled by how to successfully deal with the remaining Sacred Seeds, without any good methods, because once the Sacred Seeds hid in the underground Blood River, it was a situation where they were untraceable. Many times, he had chased the Sacred Seeds to the Blood Pool only to lose their trail.

Who would have thought, just when he needed it, someone would deliver him a pillow. This faint guidance bestowed by the Heaven and Earth's Will of the Blood Refinement World came at just the right time.

This time he didn't use the Heaven's Augury Pillar for teleportation, because he wasn't quite sure where the end of that vague sensation pointed, so he could only fly there directly.

To reach the place as quickly as possible, he didn't hesitate to explode his Essence Blood to activate the Blood Escape Technique. Of course, this state could not last long. Although he currently has a substantial reserve of Essence Blood, the Blood Escape Technique not only consumes Essence Blood but also his own foundation.

As he set off, the top human race cultivators of the Blood Refinement World, who were searching for the remaining Sacred Seeds, also set off from their respective locations after receiving the message, converging towards Lu Ye's position.

This flight lasted a full ten days before Lu Ye finally reached the end of this journey.

The peak of Jade Pillar Peak!

As one of the two highest peaks in the Blood Refinement World, the existence of Jade Pillar Peak is quite distinctive and not hard to find. Its location is at the third point of the world from north to south. If one were to look from a high altitude, Jade Pillar Peak is located to the right of the middle line of the entire domain.

Here, cold winds howl all year round, and the snow is ever-present. The harshness of this environment means that even the Blood Race is reluctant to venture here easily.

When Lu Ye set off from the Northern Territory towards the Southern Territory, he crossed over Sky Supporting Peak but never came to Jade Pillar Peak.

When he approached this place by a thousand miles, Lu Ye had already constructed Breath-concealing and Concealment Spirit Runes to augment himself as he crept silently towards the peak.

When he finally reached the peak and fixed his eyes on it, he immediately knew his previous suspicions were correct.

The vague guidance bestowed by the Heaven and Earth's Will of the Blood Refinement World was indeed targeted at all Sacred Seeds, because at this moment, three Sacred Seeds had already gathered here, standing together, their Mental Consciousness surging repeatedly, though he could not tell what they were communicating.

Lu Ye did not recklessly reveal himself. This was an opportunity to wipe out all the remaining Sacred Seeds in one fell swoop. Now, under his direction, the top experts of the Nine Provinces were gathering towards this place. Before a net was cast around them or before the Sacred Seeds assembled entirely, it was naturally inappropriate to alert the enemy.

The Heaven and Earth's Will of the Blood Refinement World is devoid of spiritual intelligence; its guidance is merely a survival instinct. So it could never have anticipated that its guidance would bring a catastrophic disaster upon the remaining Sacred Seeds.

Lu Ye concealed his figure, suppressing his aura, and after surveying the surroundings, moved closer to a certain direction.

The entire peak was covered with a thick layer of snow, except for one location: where the Blood Pool lay.

There was a Blood Pool at the peak of Jade Pillar Peak, and its scale was larger than any Blood Pool Lu Ye had seen. It churned with blood, the thick scent of blood permeating from within.

He stopped a hundred feet away from the Blood Pool, lurking in complete silence.

The reason for choosing this location is naturally to cut off the retreat of the Sacred Seeds. Nowadays, the Sacred Seeds like to hide in the underground Blood River, making it difficult for him to easily find them.

If the plan progresses smoothly enough, this Blood Pool will inevitably become the first choice for the Sacred Seeds to escape.

At that time, he would need to block this Blood Pool, cutting off the retreat of the Sacred Seeds.

Before going into hiding, he sent out one last accurate message.

As time passed and snowflakes fell, sounds of the air being torn apart were heard coming from all directions. These were the Sacred Seeds rushing here from all directions, and some Sacred Seeds even emerged directly from the underground Blood River and appeared in the Blood Pool.

Lu Ye silently observed, secretly surprised, because he discovered that the number of Sacred Seeds still alive in the Blood Refinement World was greater than he expected.

He originally thought the remaining Sacred Seeds numbered at most a dozen or so, or perhaps even fewer, but in reality, nearly twenty Sacred Seeds were gathered here, and this was clearly not all of them.

The gathering of so many Sacred Seeds here was an astonishing scene, as the Sacred Seeds ordinarily would not easily show themselves, except in the instance of besieging the Righteous Blood Sacred Land.

With so many Sacred Seeds gathered in one place, if a battle were to break out, Lu Ye might not even need to take action. The saintliness between them would interfere with each other, and except for the Sacred Seed with the strongest saintliness, the others would find their abilities reduced.

More Sacred Seeds continued to gather, but their numbers were limited, as these must be the ones coming from farther away.

They gathered and communicated among themselves, trying to uncover the truth behind a slight guidance, but they found no clues.

Hiding in the dark, Lu Ye faintly perceived a repressive atmosphere. He couldn't figure out what these Sacred Seeds were waiting for, nor did he understand why the Heaven and Earth's Will of the Blood Refinement World had gathered them here.

Aside from the initial sense of guidance, he had no further perception.

The same was true for the Sacred Seeds gathered here. They had all been guided to assemble here, but as for why no one could say.

Lu Ye continued to lie in wait, having confirmed through external contact that the top experts of the human race had gathered nearby, ready for battle at any moment.

A dispute began among the Sacred Seeds.

They had been discussing the truth behind that hint of guidance, assuming others might know something, only to find everyone was equally clueless.

Some Sacred Seeds felt that since it was guidance from destiny, they should continue to wait. In time, the truth would become clear.

But others believed that it was unsafe to remain gathered here for long. On the human side, there was a Sacred Seed nemesis, and if he discovered the situation here, no one might escape, so they should not wait any longer.

Most Sacred Seeds remained silent, not expressing their opinions, only listening.

Thus, the scene became lively. Amidst the noise, saintliness began to waver, not to the point of major conflict. The Sacred Seeds knew that there were not many Blood Race left alive in the Blood Refinement World, and they, as Sacred Seeds, were likely the last hope for the continuation of the Blood Race. To continue living, they couldn't afford internal strife.

In the midst of the clamor, Lu Ye could no longer watch. A message was sent out: "Take action!"

At this point, the Sacred Seeds that should arrive likely already had. Even if a few were delayed due to distance, their numbers would not be significant.

The encirclement was complete, and by eliminating these Sacred Seeds here, the success of this expedition could be ensured. To prevent unforeseen events, further waiting was not advisable.

Shortly after the message was sent, powerful and deep auras charged in from all directions.

The Sacred Seeds immediately sensed this, looking around in panic, their expressions changing instantly.

"It's a trap!" shouted one of the Sacred Seeds.

Judging by the auras, there were over a hundred strong human experts participating in this siege, including those seasoned elite seniors and the Level 9 individuals who had rushed over upon receiving the urgent news.

This was a battle targeted at the Sacred Seeds, and those without Level 9 cultivation were not qualified to participate. Based on the lineup, the hundred or so from the Nine Provinces were all Level 9, though with varying strength. Such a powerful force was more than enough to wipe out the Sacred Seeds gathered here.

The Sacred Seeds were filled with anger and horror, never imagining that what had guided them to gather here turned out to be a trap set against them.

This made no sense. The guidance they felt must have been directed by the Heaven and Earth's Will of the Blood Refinement World. How could the Heaven and Earth's Will of the Blood Refinement World become a helper for the human race?

They couldn't understand, nor did they have time to ponder.

Against ordinary human cultivators, they had no fear. Even against those top experts, they had the ability to contend. What they feared was that Sacred Seed nemesis!
