Mong Jie was obviously taken aback by this sudden turn of events. In his understanding, even if reinforcements came from the Nine Provinces after receiving the message, they couldn't have arrived so quickly.

He knew that his situation today was grim, and he had been looking for an opportunity to take down the combat cultivator with him. Unfortunately, the difference in cultivation realms left him powerless.

He thought he would meet his end here but didn't expect this sudden change.

The suddenly erupting auras astonished the enemy greatly, and even Mong Jie was caught off guard.

But immediately, he showed a look of joy because he sensed several familiar auras!

He turned from defense to offense, entangling the combat cultivator who was about to retreat.

Being on the disadvantaged side, his action was undoubtedly very risky, because if the combat cultivator did not retreat, he would have to face a direct confrontation, which would surely end poorly for him.

However, his grasp of the battlefield situation was extremely precise because he was sure the combat cultivator would retreat; this was the most instinctive reaction to such a sudden occurrence.

Moreover, even if the combat cultivator didn't retreat, the offensive would slow down, with most of the force left for defense, thus he would be safe from danger.

Mong Jie made the right choice, and the combat cultivator couldn't break free, making him somewhat angry and ashamed, realizing that if he didn't kill Mong Jie, he couldn't break out of the battle circle.

Fueling his spirit force, the spear in his hand gleamed, thrusting out suddenly like a snake's tongue, aiming straight at Mong Jie's eye socket.

Mong Jie didn't even blink. Facing such an attack, he didn't intend to dodge. Instead, he reached for the opponent's spear, showing a posture of sacrificing an eye to restrain the enemy.

The combat cultivator cursed the enemy's madness. In fact, he had witnessed many such insane scenes with his companion over the past month.

Because of Mong Jie's occasional show of madness, these mid-stage Constellation cultivators were apprehensive of the consequences, entangled for a month without success.

He couldn't figure out which domain this fearless cultivator emerged from.

Are there scared cultivators in the Nine Provinces? Yes, but their numbers are certainly not significant. In the Spirit Stream battlefield and Cloud River battlefield, the relentless confrontation between the two camps, round after round of eliminations—those who survive may not be elites, but at least they've faced life and death.

Without any unforeseen circumstances, Mong Jie would lose his eye, and his life might be endangered, but the enemy's spear would also be restrained.

For a combat cultivator, the spirit treasure used for close combat is half his life; once the spear is restrained, it's like a tiger's fangs being pulled.

At this dangerous moment, a figure suddenly emerged from the side, kicking Mong Jie on the shoulder and sending him flying.

It was Feng Wujiang who intervened at the crucial moment.

The sudden change caught Mong Jie off guard, even though he sensed familiar auras and realized that reinforcements from Nine Provinces had arrived; he wasn't sure of the particulars, but with nine coming from Nine Provinces, how could Feng Wujiang stand by as his old subordinate lost an eye?

This kick was anything but courteous, mainly because there was no room to hold back, so they had to hit hard against a robust combat cultivator.

Mong Jie was directly kicked away, the combat cultivator's spear stabbing into thin air, and before he could retrieve it, he saw through where Mong Jie had just been standing—a young man with downcast eyes and a cold expression, approaching with his hand on his knife.

Constellation Early Stage cultivation!

The combat cultivator relied on the momentum to shake the spear out, forming a cloud of spear shadows to envelop the newcomer.

Mid-stage against early-stage, he felt no pressure at all, and intended to kill him with one thrust!

However, with the crescent moon blade light rising, the combat cultivator's face changed dramatically. The clash between the long knife and the spear immediately made him feel the other's violent and unparalleled offensive, the aggressive aura disturbing his spirit.

He hastily stabilized himself, roared furiously, and fiercely engaged in combat.

The more he fought, the more shocked he became, because this combat cultivator who appeared Constellation Early Stage gave him an overwhelming sense of invincibility; every slash was tremendously powerful, with incredibly fast and tricky angles.

He found himself struggling to cope for a moment.

If not for the fact that the other's spirit force fluctuation was indeed at the Constellation Early Stage, he would almost suspect the opponent was a late-stage in disguise.

No match!

Not only was he no match, but his life was in constant danger!

The combat cultivator was terrified, unable to comprehend why, despite the small cultivation level difference, the power gap was so vast.

At this moment, accompanied by a short scream, a living aura was annihilated.

The combat cultivator's face changed dramatically, sensing that his companion's aura had disappeared, realizing immediately that his magic cultivator companion had fallen in battle!

For the Nine Provinces cultivators rich in combat experience, there's a consensus when brawling with enemies: kill the one with long reach first!

Not only because they can perform long-range attacks, but also because they are relatively fragile and easier to kill.

It's the same here.

The nine from Nine Provinces came stealthily; besides Lu Ye and Feng Wujiang, who supported Mong Jie, the remaining seven went to greet the mid-stage Constellation magic cultivator.

Moreover, among these seven, there are also two sword cultivators renowned for their killing prowess!

As Jian Guhong's sword light shone, the seven unleashed all their attacks in a moment.

The magic cultivator died unjustly!

Faced with the sudden surprise attack, his response was actually swift; he first fortified himself with a protective spirit treasure and then triggered his protective spirit force.

However, such defenses were utterly incapable of withstanding the coordinated assault from Jian Guhong and the seven from all directions and angles.

The protective spirit treasure was shattered, the protective spirit force collapsed, and the magic cultivator, with no remaining Protective Power, died instantly.

This was the first confrontation between Nine Provinces Constellation and the external Constellation, so no one dared to hold back, giving it their all, resulting in the death of an enemy whose cultivation realm was a level above them after one round of combined assault.

Each was left utterly bewildered...

Is this it?

Switching places, if they were at the Constellation Mid-Stage, even encountering the same surprise attack, they shouldn't perish so easily.

Momentarily stunned, they hurried to rush over to support Lu Ye, but as they looked up, they witnessed a scene that stirred their hearts.

On the battlefield over there, Lu Ye's long blade flashed brilliantly, suppressing the enemy to the point where they barely had the power to retaliate.

Even Feng Wujiang, who had kicked Mong Jie flying, stood aside watching, with no intention of intervening, seemingly a bit dumbfounded.

Seven attacking to kill one isn't something to boast about, but single-handedly overpowering an enemy with a weaker cultivation level is quite astounding.

The combat didn't last too long. Ten breaths later, as Lu Ye's blade descended, blood splattered, and a head flew off, eyes wide open, shrieking a little of dying disgruntledly.

Mong Jie, holding his arm, gritting his teeth, flew back, the kick from Feng Wujiang was definitely painful.

Also witnessing the scene of the enemy's head shooting away.

He had tangled with this enemy for a month and was deeply familiar with their strength. One-on-one, he stood no chance, but at this moment that formidable enemy was slain by Lu Ye single-handedly, and as quickly and cleanly as slicing through bunched threads.

The group of Constellation were all silent, feeling suddenly as if they had aged...

Yet gratified that Nine Provinces had a successor.

Even back at the Divine Sea, these Constellation had witnessed Lu Ye's extraordinary skills, but now that all had ascended to Constellation, standing on the same starting line, they thought any strength disparity shouldn't be too great.

Yet now it seems, the remarkable remain remarkable, at Divine Sea, so in Constellation.

Lu Ye sheathed his blade and turned to Mong Jie: "Only two?"

Mong Jie shook his head: "Four! There are still two inside!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions sank, as it was not the situation they wished to see.

If there were only two, that would mean the crisis was resolved this time, but with four on the opposing side, and two more within the domain, the situation was grim.

In the Unparalleled Continent, many Nine Provinces cultivators remained, facing the Constellation, these Nine Provinces cultivators were simply overpowered, even struggling to even hide.

"Explain carefully!" Feng Wujiang demanded.

Through Mong Jie's explanation, everyone thoroughly understood the current situation.

A month ago, Mong Jie encountered two foreign Constellation in the nearby stellar space, precisely the two that just died. Sensing their malicious intent, Mong Jie tried to flee, but they pursued relentlessly, forcing a confrontation while also bellowing warnings to the Nine Provinces cultivators inside the Unparalleled Continent.

That was when the Nine Provinces cultivators detected the situation and sent a message back to Nine Provinces.

Outnumbered and with a cultivation gap, Mong Jie was naturally no match, but he dared not flee too far, because if he left, the Nine Provinces cultivators would be without protection.

So he lay low nearby, intermittently showing himself to provoke the two, but after a few days two more Constellation appeared, including one at Constellation Late Stage!

This left Mong Jie even more overwhelmed; he didn't even engage the enemy but fled right away, the newly arrived Constellation Late Stage didn't pursue but led another Constellation into the Unparalleled Continent.

Presumably thinking that facing a Constellation Early Stage, his two mid-stage companions were sufficient.

This stalemate lasted a month, with Mong Jie having little to do other than tugging at the enemy back and forth until today...

During this period, he was constantly injured, and today due to a lapse, he couldn't shake off the enemy in time and found himself in peril; had Lu Ye and the others arrived later, they would have been collecting his corpse.

"So, you are uncertain of the situation inside the Unparalleled Continent?" Feng Wujiang asked.

Mong Jie shook his head: "Ever since those two entered the Unparalleled Continent that day, they haven't appeared again."

All along he was entangled with two enemies, unable to enter the Unparalleled Continent to investigate, truly unsure of its current situation.
