efits.The spiritual energy river within his body had grown significantly. The biggest gain was in the realm of formation dao, a vast offering so immense that even his soul found it difficult to bear....The butcher was taken aback, but then he thought about it and said, "Perhaps the exchange rate is very low"

This pot, he won't take responsibility for it!

The city lord's expression was grim, and he had nothing more to say.

Li Ye's ability to exchange soul water with battle merits was bestowed upon him by the Heavenly Machine. Now, faced with this outcome, he couldn't change it. He could only pray that Li Ye's battle merits were limited, and he couldn't exchange for too much soul water, otherwise, it would truly affect the depth of the Soul Pond.

After a while, Lu Ye, who was happily collecting soul water at the bottom of the Soul Pond, suddenly found the Gathering Spirit Conical Flask in front of him shattered in a twist.

He instinctively built another spirit gathering funnel, but as soon as the second one was formed, it seemed like some kind of mysterious force disrupted it, preventing it from having any effect at all.

He reacted quickly, hurriedly checking his battlefield insignia. To his horror, the information recorded in the insignia revealed that his military merit points had plummeted to a mere 836.

It takes 1,000 battle points to redeem a drop of Soul Water. With the remaining 836 points, it's obviously not enough for even a single drop.

Over 300,000 battle achievements, in such a short time, there are only so many left. To say it's not painful is fake. After all, these are battle achievements, not honors. However, compared to the harvest, the price paid is absolutely worth it.

Although the water sac wasn't full, it still contained over three hundred drops of soul water. Such a massive amount of resources would be enough to elevate him and all his close friends and family to an incredibly exaggerated level of soul power.

Since the military exploits are gone, it's time to leave.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lü Ye carefully stowed away the water pouch and urged his power upwards, shooting skyward.

He thought he was deep down in the Soul Pool, but in reality, just two breaths later, he collided with a heavy layer of soul mist barriers. The surrounding light shone into his eyes, causing him to squint involuntarily.

The next moment, he felt a sharp gaze boring into him.

Lu Ye cast his gaze in the direction of the source of the attention and immediately saw the City Lord of Xian Yuan City from last time!

But at this very moment, the Lord's expression was a little strange, as if he was gritting his teeth...

He gave Lu Ye the feeling that he had done something so heinous, something that would make both heaven and earth condemn him, he even wished to strike himself down.

The butcher patted Lu Ye's shoulder again and disappeared.

Lu Ye watched his back disappear before he turned around and bowed respectfully to the figure in front of him: "Lu Ye greets the Lord Mayor!"

A cold snort echoed, "So you can actually see me"

"The city lord... how is it so yin and yang"

"When I saw the butcher senior, previously deceased, return to life just now, my joy was boundless and I may have been disrespectful. Please forgive me, Lord City Master!"

When Lü Ye explained it this way, Ji Yuan's expression eased slightly. However, when he thought of the soul pool and soul water, his face twitched again: "Boy, you have a good harvest this time!"

> Over three hundred drops of soul water!

Since the founding of Xianduan City, it has never suffered such a heavy loss of soul water.

Although there have been cultivators in the past who managed to take away some soul water from Xian Yuan City, at most they could only obtain a drop or two. It was still Ji Yuan who deliberately placed it somewhere in Xian Yuan City, allowing outsiders to find it.

And last time, this kid already took away dozens of them...

Before and after twice, Xianyuan City suffered heavy losses on this kid.

Over 300 drops of soul water consumed, enough to support the Xian Yuan City for two or three wars!

He couldn't say anything though. Last time it was his own carelessness, he hadn't expected this kid to have such strange abilities. This time there seemed to be a deliberate scheme at play, so even though he felt like his heart was bleeding, all he could do was accept his bad luck.

Fortunately, although over three hundred drops of soul water is a considerable amount, it hasn't reached the point where it could affect the foundation of the soul pool.

What does the lord...mean by this

Lu Ye raised his eyes and glanced at him. This statement, both explicit and veiled, seemed to carry a hidden meaning.

He should know he's collecting soul water in the Soul Pool, right Thinking about how the Butcher and others didn't have any soul water equipped when they went out to fight, Lu Ye suspected that this City Lord might not be able to refine soul water

Ghostly, Lu Ye took out a jade bottle and handed it to Ji Yuan, saying in a low voice, "I don't have much."

Ji Yuan looked at the jade bottle, and after a moment of reaction, he laughed angrily: "Boy, do you think I'm some kind of person"

That jade bottle was clearly the first one Lu Ye had filled when collecting the soul water. After that, he realized the soul water was condensing too quickly and switched to using a water pouch instead.

What do you think You think stolen goods, just meet and split it in half

Don't even think about it!

Lu Ye's expression turned serious as he said, "Lord City Master is mistaken. Those aren't stolen goods; I earned them in exchange for my military merit."

Ji Yuan helplessly waved his hand: “Say what you want, if you have the ability to take it, then it's yours.”

"Thank you, Lord City Master!" Lu Ye instantly relaxed.

"But kid... how many battle merits did you earn this time" Ji Yuan was still very curious about this.

Lu Ye immediately blurted out a number.

Ji Yuan's eyes twitched as he heard this. Recalling how the butcher had sworn that Lu Ye only had tens of thousands of battle merits, Ji Yuan scoffed. Tens of thousands That was a complete lie! It was over three hundred thousand!

He even suspected that the butcher was intentional, otherwise he wouldn't run so fast.

But at this point, it's pointless to dwell on it. The things are already in Lu Ye's hands. He can't be asked to spit them out, especially those soulwaters which he earned through military merit.deed a creation of the Yanshi, but... If no one commanded her, how did she move How did she speak"Master, what's going on" Lu Ye looked at Yun Xuechu."This is the Art of Separation," Yun Xuechu explai...
