It wasn’t easy to build a large Arcane Glade that could accommodate 200 to 300 people. It was the result of the hard work accumulated over the generations by the people from Cult Blackfyre and Universe Clan. It was also an important foundation of the two Sects on the Cloud River Battlefield.

However, not every Cloud River Realm Master from the two Sects had a right to enter the Arcane Glade.

In these two Sects, the Cloud River Realm Masters they had ranged from 1,000 to 3,000 in every generation, so an Arcane Glade couldn’t accommodate all of them. Therefore, even though they had lost many people from Sacred Universe Arcane Glade half a year ago, they soon made up for the losses.

Huo Liaoyuan, who was initially in charge of this place, was killed in Ameliorate Valley. Cult Blackfyre sent another Ninth-Order Master named Wang Xun to replace Huo Liaoyuan, and he took charge of the place alongside Tu Guanxiong from Universe Clan.

Presently, they were having a discussion regarding Lu Ye.

To Cloud River Realm Masters, Sacred Universe Arcane Glade wasn’t far away from Ameliorate Valley. That was why they had decided to invade Ameliorate Valley back then.

First of all, anyone who could capture Lu Ye would be rewarded, and secondly, Ameliorate Arcane Glade was an attractive place.

From Huo Liaoyuan’s perspective, it would be like killing two birds with one stone if he could kill Lu Ye and snatch the Wisp of Sanctification away from Ameliorate Arcane Glade to strengthen their own Arcane Glade at the same time.

No one had expected that he would be killed before he even achieved his goal, and the cultivators from the two Sects he had taken with him were destroyed as well.

Cult Blackfyre had sent Chu Yun and Zhou Pei to hunt Lu Ye down, but after a long time of entanglement, they were killed by the man, not the other way around.

What was worse was that Lu Ye, an Eighth-Order Cloud River Realm Master, was able to make it to the number one spot in the Fight for Supremacy.

All of these showed that Lu Ye was undoubtedly their biggest enemy.

They had found fault with Lu Ye in the past. Now that his power had grown tremendously, it was almost certain that he would retaliate against them.

Since they owned a large Arcane Glade, they wouldn’t be concerned if their enemy was an average cultivator. Besides the large number of people on their side, the Defensive Ward that engulfed the entire place wasn’t easily breakable as well.

Sacred Universe Arcane Glade had been around for a long time, and they had confidence in their defence.

Nonetheless, Lu Ye was different. Besides being powerful, he was also well-versed in the Way of Wards. On the Spirit Creek Battlefield back then, the Defensive Wards of the Outposts in the Core Circle did nothing to hinder Lu Ye. As such, the Defensive Ward around Sacred Universe Arcane Glade might not be able to stop him.

Once he managed to barge into the Arcane Glade, many of them would be killed.

If a formidable enemy like him came to find fault with them, Tu Guanxiong and Wang Xun would have a hard time leading the disciples to ward him off.

Before they even came up with a plan, they heard a deafening boom, and the entire Arcane Glade shook violently.

“What’s going on?” Tu Guanxiong’s eyebrows twitched as he rose to his feet at once.

A puzzled Wang Xun looked out of the room.

The next moment, they heard shrieks that were short and desperate. Those were the sounds made before people died.

“It’s a surprise attack!” Tu Guanxiong soon came to his senses. Then, his face twitched when he heard what the people were shouting outside.

“It’s Lu Ye Yi! He has barged into the Arcane Glade!”

“It’s Lu Yi Ye! Stop him! Argh!”

At that moment, the originally serene Arcane Glade descended into chaos as if some salt had been dropped into a pot of boiling oil. Many people panicked and left their secluded rooms.

Tu Guanxiong and Wang Xun dashed out of the room as well, and what they saw horrified them.

The Defensive Ward was still running, and the light screen had covered the entire Arcane Glade. Supposedly, as long as the light screen wasn’t shattered, no one could enter the place.

Nevertheless, there was an unfamiliar figure in the Arcane Glade now. His fiery Spiritual Power surged, making him look like he was burning. He was holding a dark saber, which was covered with scorching Spiritual Power. His figure moved around the place like a bolt of lightning. Bloodshed stirred wherever he went.

Besides that, three glowing Telekinetic Artifacts flew around and killed the cultivators under his precise control. No one could ward off his attacks or stop the artifacts from slaughtering them.

In just a short time, around 20 to 30 people were injured or killed.

“He’s moving so swiftly!” Tu Guanxiong was flabbergasted.

He and Wang Xun bolted out of the room as soon as they heard the noise, but in just a short time, Lu Ye entered and slaughtered the cultivators without a warning.

It was the time when the cultivators in the Arcane Glade were most unsuspecting. How were they supposed to counterattack when they were disunited and running away?

“You must be sick of living, Lu Yi Ye!” Wang Xun growled and charged towards the man.

“Senior Brother Wang!” Tu Guanxiong exclaimed, but he couldn’t stop him. Left with no choice, he gritted his teeth and dashed forward.

Then, what he saw terrified him. The menacing Wang Xun was attacked by Lu Ye and sent flying backwards. His Spiritual Power was a mess, and his blood scattered in the air. If Tu Guanxiong hadn’t caught him in time, he would’ve looked even more humiliated.

Tu Guanxiong knew that Lu Ye was powerful. Otherwise, the man couldn’t have killed Xia Liang, Chu Yun, and Zhou Pei, nor could he have become the winner of the Fight for Supremacy.

However, he couldn’t know clearly how powerful Lu Ye was before he saw it with his eyes. It wasn’t until this moment that he witnessed how formidable the man truly was.

Wang Xun was a Ninth-Order Master. Although he didn’t make it to the top 100 in the Fight for Supremacy, he was in the top 300 at the very least.

Therefore, he could be considered one of the brightest Cloud River Realm Masters in Jiu Zhou.

Tu Guanxiong reckoned that he wasn’t a match for him.

Much to his surprise, a brilliant cultivator such as Wang Xun was badly injured by Lu Ye and sent flying away.

It was unimaginable that an Eighth-Order Master could be so powerful.

Tu Guanxiong wondered if it had something to do with the artifact in Lu Ye’s hand.

He had acute eyesight, so he could tell that the Inviolable Saber in Lu Ye’s hand was a Spell Artifact. Even so, Wang Xun shouldn’t have been defeated so easily.

While he was in a dazed state, more than ten people were killed.

Fortunately, many people had left their secluded rooms. Without the need for anyone to give orders, they started attacking the enemy who barged into their Arcane Glade.

At that instant, colours of different lights beaming from the spells and artifacts crisscrossed the entire Arcane Glade, making the place alight with liveliness.

Faced with the bombardment of attacks, Lu Ye couldn’t possibly dodge all of them regardless of how dexterous and flexible he was.

The Protection Glyph around him was repeatedly formed and destroyed. He was wounded, but it didn’t bother him one bit. Just like what he had done in the fight against Xia Liang and the others back then, he charged towards the places where most people gathered.

His three Telekinetic Spell Artifacts were immensely useful. He madly activated his Spiritual Power without considering how energy-consuming it would be. No Cloud River Realm Masters could fend off the artifacts considering their speed and power. As the rays of light flew around, blood splashed and limbs flew away.

Tu Guanxiong was horrified to learn that, if things went on like this, regardless of whether Lu Ye would die in the end, all of the disciples of the two Sects in this Arcane Glade would be destroyed.

“Go back to the main Sects and ask for help now!” Tu Guanxiong ordered through clenched teeth. At the same time, he and Wang Xun charged forward.

Given the power that Lu Ye showcased, cultivators below the Ninth Order were powerless against him. Only Tu Guangxiong and Wang Xun could slightly hinder him.

Before the helpers from the main Sects arrived, they had to stop this man from destroying the Arcane Glade.

Despite his plan, it wasn’t until Tu Guanxiong had to deal with Lu Ye head-on that he realised he was too naive.

Lu Ye’s power was horrifying, his aura was savage, and his pressure was indescribable. Struck by the man’s attack, Tu Guanxiong was sent flying away while spraying a mouthful of blood in mid-air.

Wang Xun was in an even more terrible state. He was already wounded in the first place, and one of his arms was now gone. Regardless of how resolute he was, he was in so much pain that his face twitched.

How were they supposed to drive off such an opponent?

Despite being a Ninth-Order Master, he felt like a child facing an adult when dealing with Lu Ye.

At that moment, 20 breaths of time felt more like 20 years.

Over 100 people had been killed in the Sacred Universe Arcane Glade. Every second, there would be people losing their lives. Those who were still alive were gripped by fear and horror, and they were sluggish when they attacked.

Tu Guanxiong clearly understood that when a person was ridiculously powerful, the number of his opponents meant nothing.

There were many survivors in the Arcane Glade, but they were scared out of their wits in a short time. They no longer had the courage to fight Lu Ye. Considering their loss of morale, complete destruction was only a matter of time.

Tu Guanxiong and Wang Xun went to deal with Lu Ye again, but their attempt was futile. Wang Xun was on his last legs, and Tu Guanxiong was struck in the abdomen. The flesh around his wound rolled up, which looked hideous.

It wasn’t even the result of Lu Ye targeting them. It seemed that he had only nonchalantly slashed at his opponents.

There was no doubt it was the biggest crisis they had faced since the founding of Sacred Universe Arcane Glade. If they couldn’t survive this time, Sacred Universe Arcane Glade would cease to exist on the Cloud River Battlefield, and the two Sects would lose an important foundation.

In that case, it would be immensely destructive for the two Sects.

Fortunately, several powerful auras emerged from the Divine Opportunity Column in the Sanctum of Providence just then, and even more such auras continued to appear.

Tu Guanxiong was exultant, knowing that the helpers of the two Sects had arrived.

Only several dozen breaths of time had passed since he asked some people to seek help from the main Sects. As such, they indeed had amazing responsiveness.

However, his exaltation soon turned into horror.

Lu Ye, who was slaughtering everyone in the Arcane Glade like a butcher, turned to look in the Sanctum of Providence’s direction. The next moment, he turned into a fiery ray of light and crashed into the Sanctum with a savage aura.

Tu Guanxiong was dumbfounded upon seeing that.

Following that, shrieks from Humans and growls from Spirit Beasts were heard coming from the Sanctum of Providence.

As Spiritual Powers surged, many auras were extinguished like candlelights that were put out.

Tu Guanxiong’s eyes trembled in fear.

Images he found hard to accept sprang into his mind. Even though he didn’t see it with his eyes, he felt that it was indeed what was happening.
