Sage of Humanity-Chapter 617 - 615: A Buzz of Voices

Amber's awakening and the enhancement of the strength of a spirit and a tiger were undoubtedly the only good news recently.

Yiyi held the Nine Arrays Diagram in her hands. The stronger her power, the greater the might the Nine Arrays Diagram could exhibit. Considering the last time they battled the Fox Demon within the Nine Arrays Diagram, if Yiyi could have exerted more power from the diagram, Lu Ye might not have had such a tough time.

Moreover, Amber had formed a bond with Lu Ye through the Life Origin Method and the Beast Seal Method. During battle, Lu Ye could borrow strength from Amber. Once the Beast Transformation Secret Technique was activated, the stronger Amber became, the higher the limit Lu Ye could reach.

It could be said that the enhancement of Amber's strength directly boosted Lu Ye's strength.

These two companions were rare aids for Lu Ye, unique in the entire Nine Provinces cultivation world.

Recently, signs of cultivators had been evident outside the Great Reversal Spirit Ground. Clearly, these were Ten Thousand Demons Ridge cultivators who had received the news and arrived here early. However, since it was still early, not many people had come.

It was foreseeable that as time passed, more and more cultivators would arrive here.

Although these cultivators had received news about Lu Ye, they didn't dare make any reckless moves before confirming it. They just secretly scouted around the spirit ground, but unfortunately, a big array concealing it thwarted their efforts to discern anything significant.

Days later, a cultivator could no longer bear it and flew directly above Great Reversal Valley, gesturing with a magic spell downward.

As the spirit force stirred, the concealing array lost its effectiveness. In an instant, the entire scene of the spirit ground became visible.

A few wooden houses were distributed sparsely, a spiritual spring gently flowed out, and in front of one of the houses, a man casually sat on the floor with a long saber beside his leg, looking indifferently at the figure in the sky.

Their eyes met. The magic cultivator who had acted observed intently, his expression overjoyed, "Lu Yiye!"

Although they had hurried here based on previously received news, no one could confirm whether this was indeed Lu Ye's hiding place unless they saw him with their own eyes.

At this moment, when the concealing array dissipated, and Lu Ye's figure was truly revealed, all the Ten Thousand Demons Ridge cultivators who saw him, whether hidden or not, were thrilled with excitement.

The news was true, this was indeed where Lu Yiye was hiding!

As the magic cultivator got excited, over ten shadowy figures hiding nearby swiftly flew towards this area.

Now that Lu Ye's whereabouts had been found, naturally, it was best to act fast! There was only one Lu Yiye; whoever could kill him would gain the bounty!

However, not everyone rushed out; many still chose to wait and watch.

In the spirit ground, Lu Ye raised one hand, his palm facing the magic cultivator hovering in mid-air.

The magic cultivator, still immersed in the joy of discovering Lu Ye's whereabouts, was completely clueless about what he was about to do. As he puzzled over it, Lu Ye suddenly clenched his hand, as if grasping the magic cultivator entirely in his palm.

Then, he swung his hand downward and said softly, "Come down!"

The moment the words were spoken, the magic cultivator felt a massive mountain crash down on him. He plummeted straight down like a bird with broken wings amid his shock.

The sudden turn of events threw him into a panic, and he cried out, desperately urging his spirit force to stabilize his body.

However, just then, a clear sound of a flying sword rang out. Swords flew from another wooden house, enveloped in a chilling breath of death, striking precisely at the flailing magic cultivator.

Thud, thud, thud sounds continuously emitted. The protective spirit force of the magic cultivator held for less than a moment before shattering. The flying swords pierced through, blood spraying out, accompanied by incessant screams echoing in Great Reversal Valley.

Thump...

The magic cultivator crashed to the ground, not immediately dead, but his mouth and nose were filled with blood, countless bones broken throughout his body, and more than a dozen wounds from flying swords pierced through him.

Before he could recover, a shadow covered him; he opened his blurry eyes to see, only to find Lu Yiye, who had been sitting in front of another house, now standing before him, looking down from above.

The magic cultivator screamed in terror, instinctively trying to activate his spirit force, but Lu Ye stomped on his chest, the impact causing him to spit out blood. The spirit force he had managed to gather abruptly scattered.

Lu Ye raised his saber, the dark Boulder Mountain Saber blade flickering with a sharp glint.

"Wait..." the magic cultivator gasped, but before he could finish, the saber had already stabbed down.

The blade pierced through his chest, came out his back, and directly claimed his life. The body of the magic cultivator convulsed slightly before falling silent.

Lu Ye bent down, took the storage sack from him, and then kicked his body out of the spirit ground. He shook the blood off the Boulder Mountain Saber and coldly watched the more than ten figures hovering in the distance.

Making eye contact with him made everyone's scalp tingle.

The magic cultivator who had initially acted had only unleashed one spell, but from the spirit force fluctuations around him, it was clear that he was a Level 9 magic cultivator!

Level 9, the absolute limit that Cloud River battlefield could accommodate, a very powerful being in any place.

Yet such a powerful being had mysteriously died here!

From start to finish, aside from someone assisting with a flying sword, Lu Yiye had only struck once!

They naturally did not believe that the Level 9 magic cultivator had perished by Lu Ye's hand. The reason for the opponent's tragic and desolate death was entirely due to his carelessness.

Reflecting on the magic cultivator's ordeal, someone frowned and muttered in a low voice, "Great Sky Prohibition Array!"

It made no sense for a Level 9 magic cultivator to suddenly fall unless it was because of the Sky Prohibition Array; there was no other explanation.

It was well-known that Lu Yiye had extraordinary accomplishments in the Array Path, but it was unexpected that he was skilled enough to set up a Great Sky Prohibition Array.

In the information they had received, there was no mention of the Great Sky Prohibition Array. Tu Guanxiong, in spreading the news, had either intentionally or unintentionally omitted this piece of intelligence.

The more than ten cultivators from Ten Thousand Demons Ridge who had rushed over were now filled with relief...

Luckily, their speed wasn't fast enough; otherwise, once they had entered the range of the Great Sky Prohibition Array, they likely would have ended up just like that magic cultivator.

As for why Lu Yiye didn't wait for them to break into the range of the Great Sky Prohibition Array before activating its power, it was understandable; it wasn't that he didn't want to, but that he dared not.

Using the Great Sky Prohibition Array to create an opportunity to kill a Level 9 magic cultivator was not difficult, but if more than a dozen people broke through, even if he could kill a few, the rest would be troublesome.

The current situation was indeed the best countermeasure.

Kill one, deter many. The death of a Level 9 magic cultivator had made the remaining people too scared to act rashly.

Lu Ye glanced coldly at those ten or so people, raised his hand with a wave, and the concealing array resumed its effect. Ripples passed over, and the entire spirit ground disappeared from everyone's sight.

The group exchanged glances for a while, then silently retreated.

Although a Level 9 magic cultivator had mysteriously perished, the news of Lu Yiye's presence in this place had been confirmed, and some even saw Li Baxian and Feng Yuechan. The flying sword that had attacked the magic cultivator was controlled by Li Baxian.

The news kept spreading outward, and the area outside Great Reversal Valley gradually became lively. This place, usually devoid of people, was now bustling with noise and crowded with cultivators everywhere.

Cultivators who knew each other gathered in groups of three or five, discussing how they could safely and effectively kill Lu Yiye and claim the hefty reward.

There were also powerful individuals who stood aloof, watching everything coldly from aside.

The cultivators from Sacred Universe Spirit Ground had returned under Ming Zhe's leadership, but they did not gather together. Instead, they split into several teams and spread out in different areas.

Watching the bustling entrance of Great Reversal Valley, Ming Zhe sighed and then took a long breath.

He felt pained that the losses on the side of Sacred Universe Spirit Ground had been too severe previously, even losing Senior Brother Huo Liaoyuan to Lu Yiye. But now, with people from all sides of Ten Thousand Demons Ridge gathering, and the number of cultivators reaching over three hundred, those daring to venture here were no less than Level 6.

Such a force, even if it simply bulldozed its way through, would definitely be impossible for Lu Yiye to withstand.

He was bound to die!

Thus, Senior Brother Huo could rest in peace. Looking in the direction of Great Reversal Valley, Ming Zhe's eyes gleamed with the pleasure of an impending revenge.

However, things developed somewhat differently from what he had expected.

The number of Ten Thousand Demons Ridge cultivators gathering here continued to increase, including quite a few powerful ones from Level 9 coming from 1st and 2nd grade sects; however, no one dared to launch a direct attack on Great Reversal Valley. It seemed everyone had silently reached a consensus, just observing...

Ming Zhe gradually came to realize.

The Sacred Universe Spirit Ground side no longer hoped to claim the reward on Lu Yiye's head. Now, they just wanted to use others to exact vengeance for their fallen brothers, but these cultivators driven here by benefits were different; each was eyeing the massive reward.

After learning that Great Reversal Valley was covered by a Great Sky Prohibition Array, no one dared to make rash moves.

Lu Yiye could even set up a Great Sky Prohibition Array, who knew what other strange and exotic arrays could be inside his spirit ground?

At this time, whoever took the lead would be the most unlucky!

In simple terms, people were not united, all hoping that others would make the first move to test the waters at Great Reversal Valley, so they could take advantage from the shadows!

Ming Zhe first felt angry. Even though they possessed the power to flatten everything, they still engaged in deceitful schemes here, which was truly disappointing.

But thinking it over, if he put himself in their place, he could also understand the mindset of those powerful individuals; after all, they did not have such a great hatred with Lu Yiye.

Moreover, the reward for Lu Yiye was too enormous, so enormous that they had to act cautiously to increase their chances of success.

But if things continued this way, how could they kill Lu Yiye?

Ming Zhe's worries were obviously unnecessary. Whatever he could think of, how could others not think of it? Just as he was agonizing over it, a figure suddenly stood out. He flew into mid-air, immediately drawing everyone's attention.
