The All Phenomena Ocean was bustling today because another major event had occurred—Zixuan, as a top-class Spirit Island, suddenly deployed forces to attack Three Worlds Island, dispatching three Moon Jade Late-Stage cultivators and four thousand Constellation cultivators to form a massive fleet.

With the dissemination of various messages, it didn't take long for this event to become known throughout the All Phenomena Ocean.

Nearby cultivators rushed to investigate the situation immediately, while those further away hurried over, eager not to miss such a spectacle.

Across this vast All Phenomena Ocean, various conflicts continue incessantly; disputes and slaughters are staged almost every moment between cultivators and islands. Cultivators from different Star Systems clash here, keeping the All Phenomena Ocean perpetually lively.

However, amidst all this hullabaloo, it's almost unheard of for a top-class Spirit Island to dispatch forces to attack another island. Top-class islands possess powerful capabilities, and having already occupied a top-class Spirit Island, they are generally in a state of no needs and desires. Without a major grievance, they would not bully the weak.

The last time a top-class Spirit Island deployed forces was nearly ten thousand years ago.

Therefore, when the news of Zixuan deploying forces spread, it attracted attention from many cultivators, especially since Zixuan's target was the currently prominent Three Worlds Island.

Having risen to prominence within less than a decade and becoming one of the All Phenomena Ocean's exceptionally successful commercial Spirit Islands, the rise of Three Worlds Island is quite legendary. Whether it rapidly conquered Baiyue Island or offended the Sun Blaze governor, these events attract considerable attention.

Although the word from Zixuan claimed that Three Worlds Island had a newly promoted Moon Jade who killed Zixuan demon cultivators without cause, and thus they dispatched troops, such statements could only deceive newcomers to the All Phenomena Ocean. Any veteran cultivators who have spent some years here know this is but an excuse; the real reason for Zixuan's deployment is only known to themselves.

Everyone believed that Three Worlds Island was in for bad luck this time, because whether comparing their heritage or the number of cultivators, Zixuan significantly exceeds Three Worlds Island, making the disparity in overall strength extremely vast.

Yet, nobody anticipated that the forceful expedition, assembling such a large fleet of Zixuan demon cultivators, would be intercepted by one person; after a shocking slaughter, Zixuan demon cultivators lost hundreds of Constellation cultivators and one Moon Jade and were forced to retreat halfway through their journey. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

According to cultivators who witnessed the battle firsthand, the individual responsible for this astounding feat was the Third Island Master of Three Worlds Island, Lu Ye.

Despite his cultivation being only at Moon Jade Mid-Stage, Lu Ye's strength was extraordinarily frightening. He single-handedly intercepted the Zixuan fleet, brazenly charging into the fleet, easily destroying several Tiger Shark battleships, provoking the pursuit of Zixuan's three Moon Jade cultivators.

Lu Ye then doubled back and single-handedly wiped out hundreds of Zixuan demon cultivators.

The most shocking was that Zixuan's Third Island Master, Yoan Che, possessing Moon Jade Late-Stage cultivation, was forcefully slain by Lu Ye in one strike, making Yoan Che incapable of any resistance during the entire process.

Rumors suggested that when that strike was delivered, Lu Ye of Three Worlds Island descended like a war god, unstoppable; the brilliance of that strike dimmed the heavens and earth.

Afterward, seeing the situation had gone awry, Zixuan's second Island Lord Hu Guang commanded the fleet to return, while Lu Ye relentlessly pursued it further, dealing heavy damage to Zixuan until the fleet retreated back to their island, temporarily pausing this dispute.

With cultivators observing from afar spreading the news, almost immediately it traveled across the All Phenomena Ocean, leaving those who didn't witness it stupefied. However, these sources were numerous; many cultivators observed from afar, allowing confirmation.

This means that these unbelievable reports were not fabrications.

The entire All Phenomena Ocean was shaken.

Prior to today, nobody thought such a battle for island dominance could be fought like this, where one individual single-handedly deterred a fleet of nearly a thousand and caused massive casualties among the enemy. This sort of outrageous incident had never occurred in both the All Phenomena Ocean and the broader stellar space.

Throughout this skirmish, Zixuan dispatched troops aggressively yet concluded hastily; whether in reputation or actual loss, the consequences were unimaginable.

To achieve such a remarkable feat, the formidable personal strength of Lu Ye from Three Worlds Island indeed left people unable to fathom.

To confront the strong when being weak, he nevertheless slew Yoan Che in one strike; though traces of secret techniques were used, it still amazes.

It must be noted that Lu Ye from Three Worlds Island is just at Moon Jade Mid-Stage, and with such prowess now, should he advance to Moon Jade Late-Stage, what then?

Presently, Zixuan demon cultivators remain on their island, while Lu Ye positions himself 500 miles outside Zixuan Island, displaying a demeanor of disdain towards Zixuan and determinedly declaring he will strike down any demon cultivators daring to leave the island...

This directly resulted in no demon cultivators from Zixuan Island daring to leave recklessly.

Even the Zixuan demon cultivators previously lingering outside have concealed themselves, not daring to show up.

In other words, the massive Zixuan Island has been blockaded!

Countless cultivators eagerly anticipate how this ongoing conflict will unfold, as the clash between these two Spirit Islands has escalated to a point of no return. Being a top-class Spirit Island, Zixuan, renowned for years, has unexpectedly been blockaded at its gate—how can this be tolerated?

One side is destined to exit the stage dismally.

Five hundred miles away from Zixuan, Lu Ye sat cross-legged on an extremely small deserted island, gazing leisurely towards Zixuan Island, pondering how to break through the opponent's protective array.

We must acknowledge one thing: although he has killed many Zixuan demon cultivators before, and even three Moon Jade ones have died at his hands, this does not undermine the foundation of Zixuan Island. Cultivators can be replaced; as long as Zixuan Island exists, Zixuan demon cultivators have a stronghold!

The enmity with Zixuan is irreconcilable. Ever since Wey Po was devoured by Lion Heart, Zixuan has firmly stood on the opposite side of Three Worlds Island.

But this top-class Spirit Island is not comparable to the likes of Baiyue.

To deal with Baiyue, Lu Ye could weaken the protective array's power by sneaking in and destroying the bases, allowing the cultivators of Three Worlds Island to attack externally. However, the same approach doesn't apply to Zixuan.

Because even if he managed to destroy several array bases, without being able to destroy them all, Zixuan's protective array would remain intact. Even if the protection is slightly weakened, with Three Worlds Island's current resources, it can't be completely breached.

The solidity of this protective array, maintained over tens of thousands of years, is beyond imagination. Without intervention from Sun Blaze, it is essentially unmovable.

In this sense, going back to the Nine Provinces to ask the Dwarf Race Sun Blazes for two red talismans might be a solution.

When he ventured to the Illusory Blood Devil's Eye before, the Dwarf Race gave him three red talismans: one for attack, one for defense, and one for escape.

He has used the first two talismans, with only the escaping red talisman left, which is unsuitable for this situation.

But even if he were faster, it would take two months for a round trip. If he's not in the All Phenomena Ocean, and Zixuan Island makes a move, Three Worlds Island is in danger.

Moreover, red talismans from the Dwarf Race aren't inexhaustible. Previously, three races collaborated to give him three red talismans. Even if he goes back to ask for more, he may not get suitable ones.

Yet, without the power of red talismans, how can he break through Zixuan's protective array?

This matter is quite troubling for Lu Ye because, according to his plan, only by breaking the opponent's protective array will he fully control the battle's initiative. At that time, he could come and go at Zixuan Island as he pleases, even Lion Heart wouldn't be able to keep him.

After thinking long and hard, he still has no lead, and he can't stay here indefinitely. This would indeed be a waste of time; what if Zixuan remains behind closed doors?

After a brief contemplation, Lu Ye decided to set up a Formation on the spot. Soon, the Formation was activated, concealing his figure.

The main reason for doing this was that quite a few spectators were staying around. Any movement he made was under their watchful eyes, and among them were surely Zixuan's spies.

Under the cover of the Formation, Lu Ye conjured his Talent Tree Avatar, dressed it, and as his true self, activated Concealment and Breath-concealing Spirit Runes on himself, leaving quietly.

A few hours later, Lu Ye quietly returned to Three Worlds Island.

In the Council Hall, all Moon Jade members of this island gathered.

With a smile, Tang Jun looked at Lu Ye: "Young brother, you are quite impressive now. The whole All Phenomena Ocean is saying you are the best below Sunlight!"

The All Phenomena Ocean is a gathering place for cultivators from countless star systems, with many Moon Jade cultivators of various strengths from major factions. Yet even someone like Lion Heart wouldn't dare to claim to be the best below Sunlight, for in the world, there's always a higher peak.

However, after this series of battles, Lu Ye has firmly established his reputation as the best below Sunlight. Yoan Che was strong, but couldn't withstand even a single strike from him—who else in the entire All Phenomena Ocean could achieve that?

Lu Ye, however, showed no joy at this; he simply replied, "Those who say that about me must have ulterior motives."

Tang Jun paused for a moment, then nodded with realization: "Indeed."

Even with the feat of slaying Yoan Che in one strike, the title of "best below Sunlight" carries too much weight. Cultivators often harbor ambitions and aggressive tendencies. Without a sufficiently strong background, such a title is no good thing.

"But why have you returned?" Tang Jun inquired, "Weren't you blocking the gate at Zixuan?"

"I left an Avatar there; the Zixuan demon cultivators will likely not dare come out for now."

Tang Jun nodded, understanding that if Zixuan demon cultivators don't emerge, Lu Ye staying there would be a waste of time.

Luan Xiao'e spoke: "Senior Brother, what are your plans next?"

Lu Ye replied: "If you don't kill a snake, it will bite back. Naturally, I plan to seize Zixuan. Zixuan has suffered significant losses right now, particularly losing two Moon Jade governors, which presents a great opportunity."

The loss of Moon Jade governors can be replenished, but the condition is that they must first go to the All Phenomena Ocean to register, which is why Lu Ye sees it as an opportunity.
