If Lu Ye was unprepared, he would definitely be in trouble at this moment. After all, this was a joint attack by the two constellations in the later stage.
But with precautions in mind, it will not be easy for the other party to succeed.
The long sword was unsheathed and slashed diagonally. A huge crescent blade flew past, flashing with dazzling brilliance. It met Ye Chaoqun's fierce attack. The sinking sword slashed across a semicircle, and the Panshan sword, which was poured into spiritual power, shook. He caught the sword light that struck the door in front of him.
The moment the sword light shattered, Lu Ye's mouth went numb.
Speaking of which, this was the first time he had such a head-on confrontation with Xingxiu's late stage, and he immediately noticed the huge gap between the late stage and the early stage.
His own background is indeed profound, but his cultivation is still a flaw.
Before he could take a breath, Ye Chaoqun had already attacked Lu Ye with his fists. At the same time, Duan Xiuchen came from the side and fired out a series of spiritual talismans, manifesting a ferocious offensive.
Lu Ye led Oriole and Xu Xinghe back quickly, his sword spinning like the moon, and he activated layers of defensive barriers in front of him to resist the incoming force.
The speed at which the imperial guards were shattered was unprecedentedly fast. Even if Lu Ye pushed with all his strength, he still seemed to have no time to resist.
At this critical moment, Oriole suddenly raised his hand and patted Lu Ye on the back. A talisman on his hand turned into golden light, covering Lu Ye's whole body.
Lu Ye's pressure was greatly reduced.
However, Oriole and Xu Xinghe were not so lucky. The two constellations jointly attacked in the later stage. It seemed that Lu Ye was resisting alone, but in fact it was the three of them working together.
The aftermath of the ferocious attack made the two people's energy and blood surge. When Oriole slapped the golden talisman on Lu Ye, his mind relaxed. He was accidentally hit by Ye Chaoqun's fist, which instantly exploded into a ball of blood mist. .
The three of them formed a formation, and one person died in the battle. The formation collapsed without any attack, and Xu Xinghe immediately followed in her footsteps.
Seeing this scene, Ye Chaoqun and Duan Xiuchen's offensive became more and more fierce. It was obvious that they wanted to send Lu Ye back to the eastern camp in one go.
Unexpectedly, Lu Ye, who was fighting alone, became much more flexible and protected by a golden amulet. The two of them could not hold it for a while.
When Lu Yechou had the right opportunity, he struck out with Arc Moon, forcing the two of them to retreat.
The two big ones did not pursue each other in the later stage, but stood still, each with different expressions.
Only then did Lu Ye have the time to look around. Just when he was entangled with the two constellations in the later stage, there were constant sounds of monks dying in battle. He knew that it was an accident that happened to his own troops. Now that he could see clearly, he The losses were much greater than expected.
Nine people came, and only three were still alive at this moment. Apart from him, only Haitang and another Xingxiu were struggling to support themselves in the early stage.
While he was watching, Xingxu's early stage also died on the spot, and Haitang's side was equally in danger, and it looked like he would not survive.
Although he had already warned everyone to run away if the situation was not good, it seemed that they still lost their vigilance, mainly because the two scenes of Nanxi and Xi were too realistic.
Holding the Panshan knife, Lu Ye lowered his eyes slightly: "Fellow Taoist from the south, this is not the way a friend should treat guests!"
Duan Xiuchen chewed his teeth and looked solemn: "Brother Ye told me about you before. I didn't believe it at first, but looking at it now, Brother Ye not only did not exaggerate, but actually underestimated you."
A star in the early stage of Xingxiu was able to escape unscathed under the joint ambush and attack of the two late stages. Who can believe it?
But this happened right under his nose.
"Is the southern part joining forces with the western part?" Lu Ye asked.
Ye Chaoqun chuckled: "As fellow Taoist friends have seen!"
Duan Xiuchen said: "Brother Lu, don't be angry. It's really forced by the situation. Think about it, the East has always been third, and I compete for first and second. This is a common practice. If the East suddenly rides on me this time, As for the department, we people can't explain it when we go back. On the contrary, it's you in the east. Since you have always been the third child, it doesn't matter if you maintain it this time. The so-called beauty of adulthood is something that everyone should have, Brother Lu. , you are just a foreign aid, you don’t have to work so hard!”
Lu Ye slowly sheathed the knife and said slowly: "The headquarters thought that we could maintain the relationship as allies, but we didn't expect that it was just wishful thinking."
Duan Xiuchen said: "It concerns a realm, and some choices are forced. However, this does not affect our personal friendship. When Brother Lu comes to our southern Fangcun Mountain, Duan will warmly entertain him and apologize in person. It's just a martial arts performance this time. ...I also need to ask Brother Lu to take care of me."
"Understood!" Lu Ye nodded.
Duan Xiuchen laughed loudly: "I like Brother Lu who is so sensible, so... let's say goodbye first!"
It was no longer necessary to pursue Lu Ye with Ye Chaoqun. Of the nine people in the east, only Lu Ye was left. While they were talking, Haitang also died in the battle.
It's not that Lu Ye doesn't want to save him, it's that these two constellations have been locking him with their spiritual thoughts in the later stage. If he rushes into the battle rashly, he is afraid that he will also fall into it.
The two monks from the south and west adjusted for a while and pushed the spirit ball in one direction. Lu Ye took a look and found that it was the direction of the west camp.
This was obviously something they had negotiated.
The current situation is that the East has three goals, the South has two goals, but the West, which has the strongest overall strength, only has one goal. Since these two teams want an alliance, they must first make up for the deficiencies of the West.
It cannot be said that if the South gets three goals first, then the situation in the West will be too ugly.
I think the eighth spirit ball is going to be placed in the south.
After watching the two monks from the south and west leave, Lu Ye turned around and rushed towards the direction of the eastern camp. On the way, he received a note message from Haitang and agreed on a meeting place.
After a while, Haitang's eight people rushed over.
Everyone was a little unhappy, and Oriole pursed her lips angrily: "These two are so shameless. They are both so strong, but they still join forces. It's just a joint effort. They still play games for us to take advantage of. I'm really angry. Me!"
Han Molong chuckled: "Senior Brother Lu has already warned us in advance, telling us to run away quickly when the situation is bad, but we are not careful enough. Look, Senior Brother Lu, didn't you escape unscathed?"
Oriole was not angry: "That's Senior Brother Lu's ability!" He turned to look at Lu Ye: "Senior Brother, have you already seen that those two have evil intentions?"
Lu Ye said: "No matter when, you should always be vigilant. You can't place your hopes on others. The long-term solution is to be vigilant enough yourself."
Everyone nodded.
Lu Ye turned around and looked around. Fortunately, although everyone was quite angry, the atmosphere was not solemn. After all, the Eastern side had three goals in hand, which was enough to make a difference. There was nothing they could do if they couldn't grab the fourth spiritual ball.
Judging from the current situation, it is no longer realistic for the East to grab the fourth spirit ball, because the southern monks are even willing to assist the West in transporting the spirit ball. This kind of cooperation has gone beyond the alliance.
Haitang couldn't help but worry: "Junior brother Lu, do you think they will come to snatch ours after they divide the remaining spirit balls?"
Lu Ye said leisurely: "Do you know what the southern star said to me in the later period?"
"say what?"
"He said that since the East has been third for ten thousand years, it doesn't matter if we maintain it this time. On the contrary, if the two of them fall below us, it will be difficult for them to get along. Now the seventh spirit has appeared. They are sending the ball to the western camp. If I guess correctly, the eighth ball will be sent to the south, and the ninth ball will also be sent to the west. In this way, all the spirit balls will be equally divided among the three of us."
Haitang's face changed slightly: "So... they will come to rob us!"
As soon as these words came out, others suddenly became nervous.
Even though they were almost wiped out by the group just now, everyone was only slightly angry and not worried about anything. But if this happened, then there would be no hope for the established second place.
It would be fine if he didn't grab the third spirit ball. His overall strength was inferior to others, so he could only accept his fate. But how could he spit out the meat in his mouth?
Lu Ye nodded: "It will definitely happen. Nine goals and three points cannot determine the ranking. But if one is taken away from us and they decide the outcome, then they can decide on one, two, and three. The South and West have already We have a strategy in place and are just waiting for us to submit."
Oriole said weakly: "It's not that easy to come to our camp to grab the spirit ball... right?"
"It's not easy, but it's not impossible, especially when those two come together."
With two stars in the late game and five mid-game games, how can the Eastern Conference compete with such a lineup? Even if you can constantly be reborn to join the battle at the camp, the consumable spiritual energy cannot be recovered. Once the number of deaths reaches a limit, you will completely lose your combat effectiveness!
The fundamental reason is that the Eastern team's lineup is too weak, so weak that the other two teams saw the feasibility of implementing this plan!
The only thing they are worried about now is Lu Ye, but if a late-stage constellation comes to entangle Lu Ye, the remaining people will not be afraid at all. Haitang and others who are waiting to be killed have lost their fighting power, and Lu Ye is unable to stop them single-handedly.
Haitang realized the seriousness of the problem: "Then should we go back to strengthen the defense of the camp?"
"I'm already doing it!" Lu Ye said.
Everyone was confused, but they didn't know how Lu Ye could strengthen the defense of the camp when he was clearly standing here.
Only in the misty space, the three sunlights could clearly see that the twenty-eighth extra light spot was now located in the eastern camp, motionless.
"It's not enough to just strengthen the defense of the camp. No matter how strong the defense is, it will be breached sometimes, so other means are needed."
Haitang said: "If Junior Brother Lu has a way, just give him the order. As long as we can keep the spirit ball in the camp, it doesn't matter how many times we die."
When everyone looked at him, Lu Ye said calmly: "The best defense is offense, so... let's go grab the fourth spirit ball!"
A group of people were immediately dumbfounded. Grabbing the fourth spirit ball was the previously set goal, but now it seems that it can no longer be achieved. Under the premise of sincere cooperation between the south and west, there is no room for the east to intervene.
How to grab this?
