When Lu Ye entered the chasm, he saw many insectoids crawling up.

He killed the nearby insectoids and found a secretive place before activating Spectral Image.

A moment later, a figure who was identical to Lu Ye appeared. Lu Ye took off the Red Dragon Warsuit and let the Soul Clone put it on. He also let the Soul Clone hang the Sword Gourd at his waist and gave him two Storage Bags, which contained some resources.

When everything was done, the Soul Clone drove the Sword Light and shot out of the chasm before flying towards Dark Moon Forest Pass.

On the other hand, Lu Ye concealed his presence and stealthily left the chasm before going to Grand Sky City.

His vision had become weird as he could see two different scenes at the same time. Fortunately, he had experienced that before. Also, since he was now a Divine Ocean Realm Master, his Divine Ego was stronger. Such a change wouldn’t affect him much. He just had to do two things simultaneously.

A premonition had been bugging him since the day before, but he didn’t pay attention to it as it wasn’t conspicuous at that time. Now, that feeling had become clearer.

Although he had no idea what was going on, he was certain that no one was keeping an eye on him from a nearby place. However, he felt as if he had been targeted. He didn’t think it was a delusion.

As a Divine Ocean Realm Master, he had a much stronger perception than when he was a Real Lake Realm Master. Since he had that feeling, there must be a reason for it. Unfortunately, he couldn’t confirm where the source was for now.

After he walked across dozens of kilometres, he got out of his concealment and leapt into the sky.

Around an hour later, a ray of light was coming right at him.

The person coming from that direction was supposed to be from the Grand Sky Coalition. His fluctuations of Spiritual Power showed that he was a Third-Order Divine Ocean Realm Master.

Since Lu Ye didn’t know who the person was, he decided to avoid coming into contact with him. When flying in the sky, weaker cultivators were supposed to avoid the stronger ones. It was common sense.

There were many ways to avoid a stronger cultivator. One could lower his altitude or move in a different direction. It didn’t matter.

Lu Ye had chosen to lower his altitude, but much to his surprise, the other party also did the same not long after that.

The person was approaching rapidly. Just as Lu Ye was ready to avoid him again, the person said, “Oh? Are you Lu Yi Ye, little friend?”

Lu Ye was surprised as he didn’t expect that person to know him. He replied, “Yes.”

That person was shocked. “Have you ascended to the Divine Ocean Realm already? Congratulations.”

Lu Ye frowned. “May I know your name?”

“I’m Zhang Song from the Clear Moon Sect.” As he spoke, he lifted the back of his hand and showed Lu Ye the blue glow.

Lu Ye had never heard of the Clear Moon Sect before. A Sect with a Divine Ocean Realm Master must be Tier Three and above. Although he didn’t know everything about those Sects in Tier Three and above in Bing Zhou, he had heard of their names before. He didn’t remember the Clear Moon Sect being a Sect in Tier Three and above.

Much to his surprise, Zhang Song suddenly hastened his speed and reached Lu Ye in the blink of an eye. As he activated his Spiritual Power and vitality, he extended a fist.

The attack was forceful. If Lu Ye were still a Real Lake Realm Master, he would never be able to fend it off.

The turn of events shocked Lu Ye. Since the other party showed him the Battlefield Imprint of the Grand Sky Coalition, he subconsciously thought that person was from the same side, thus lowering his guard.

He had indeed done so slightly. However, since he had a feeling that someone had targeted him, he remained cautious. He wasn’t wary of Zhang Song but the enemy that was hidden elsewhere. This bit of caution allowed him to react quickly.

The sound of the Inviolable Saber being unsheathed was heard as a ferocious Saber Light shot forward.

With a boom, their Spiritual Powers clashed as an air blast spread in all directions. Both of them shuddered upon impact.

A hint of surprise flashed across Zhang Song’s face. Earlier, he suddenly shot towards Lu Ye and launched a sneak attack as someone who was two Minor Realms stronger. He should supposedly achieve his goal. To increase the chances of success, he even made up a Sect called the Clear Moon Sect to distract Lu Ye.

Much to his dismay, things had gone against his wishes even though he had meticulously devised his plan.

The moment he saw Lu Ye, he knew the information he had received was incorrect. Lu Ye was a Divine Ocean Realm Master, not a Real Lake Realm Master.

However, since Zhang Song believed a new Divine Ocean Realm Master like Lu Ye was still weak, he decided to carry on with his plan. He thought he would easily capture Lu Ye, so he didn’t expect to suffer a setback.

Lu Ye had reacted quickly and unsheathed his saber in a split second. Moreover, the power coming from the attack must not be underestimated.

[Why is a new Divine Ocean Realm Master like him so powerful?]

While Zhang Song was in his thoughts, Lu Ye made the second move. Zhang Song hurriedly raised both arms. As his vitality and Spiritual Power intertwined, they formed a sturdy layer of protection.

A boom was heard. The immense force made Zhang Song feel as if he had been struck by a mountain, not a saber.

What made him feel anxious was that the blade was unusually sharp. He was a Body-tempering Cultivator, but his protective layer showed signs of breaking apart after only one attack.

Lu Ye could finally experience how powerful the Inviolable Saber truly was after it was upgraded.

There were a total of 180 enchantments, many of which were Gravity Well. For every strike, it didn’t only carry Lu Ye’s power but also the horrifying pressure formed by Gravity Well. When the two forces combined, a far greater power was formed. Even a Body-tempering Cultivator like Zhang Song found it hard to ward off the attack.

Lu Ye could achieve this result mainly because of his heritage. The Inviolable Saber’s power only came second.

It took him half a year to ascend from the Ninth-Order Real Lake Realm to the Divine Ocean Realm. In the end, he even took the risk to enter the Blood Sea to increase his physical strength. Since he had developed a Divine Ego long ago, it had been challenging for him to find the chance that would allow him to achieve a breakthrough. That was why his physical strength had increased tremendously.

When an average person ascended to the Divine Ocean Realm, his physical strength only needed to reach the capacity of a wine bottle. On the other hand, Lu Ye’s accumulation in the Ninth-Order Real Lake Realm was more than a wine jar. It could even be said to be a wine jar that could store five kilograms of wine.

His road to the Divine Ocean Realm was full of obstacles, but once he achieved an ascension, everything became smoother for him.

His ample heritage and solid foundation, coupled with his unique way of ascending to the Divine Ocean Realm, allowed his power to be transformed fundamentally. He could also go on to kill much stronger enemies like he used to.

Also, he had the transformed Inviolable Saber, so it was only natural that he had no regard for a Third-Order Divine Ocean Realm Master.

He had spent several months receiving training from over 70 Seniors, so he didn’t even know where his current limit was.

He had witnessed how ferocious the tigers were, so he had no interest in listening to the barking of a dog.

When he made the first move, the two of them could be considered a match as he had launched an attack in a hurry.

When it was Lu Ye’s second move, the protective layer around Zhang Song was damaged, causing his vitality to undulate.

Lu Ye could launch an attack quickly as it was soon his third move.

Like a balloon that had been punctured, a cut appeared in the protective layer formed by Zhang Song’s Spiritual Power and vitality. The sharp Inviolable Saber slashed at his crossed arms, causing him to bleed. He was forced to descend as an immense force pressed down on him.

Zhang Song was shocked and terrified. He was shocked that Lu Ye was able to quickly activate a tremendous power. On the other hand, he was terrified of the feeling that was washing over him.

He was a Body-tempering Cultivator with a sturdy body and excellent restorative power. It had come to a point in his cultivation where his body was his best protection. If he contended with a cultivator in the same Realm, no one could break his body, not even the Inviolable Saber with 180 enchantments. The weapon had only caused a bloody wound on his arms.

This kind of flesh wound was nothing to a Body-tempering Cultivator. The wound would heal in no time.

However, the feeling that Zhang Song went through after he was hurt made his chest tighten.

That was because the moment the Inviolable Saber struck him, he felt a pain in his Divine Soul as though an invisible Saber Light had penetrated his Divine Ocean.

Nevertheless, he didn’t notice Lu Ye activating his Soul Power. As he descended, Lu Ye relentlessly ran after him and wielded his saber. Zhang Song growled with a humiliated look.

He had launched a sneak attack despite being two Minor Realms above Lu Ye, but it turned out that he was injured instead. Body-tempering Cultivators were usually irritable, so he would never put up with that.

He wanted to counterattack, but he was unable to do so since he had lost the upper hand.

As the Saber Lights flickered, all he could do was to protect himself. But every time Lu Ye struck, he felt a pain in his Divine Soul. It was impossible for him to launch a Soul Attack against Lu Ye.

With a boom, Zhang Song crashed into the ground like an aerolite, forming a pit. He started seeing Stars. Since his Divine Soul was in turmoil, he couldn’t make his mind focus.

He couldn’t figure out what the other party had done. His Divine Soul was damaged even though Lu Ye never activated his Soul Power.

He knew he had failed his mission. Since he wasn’t even a match for Lu Ye, how was he supposed to complete the task?

Now, he had to run away quickly and report the matter to a higher-up.

The dust rose, forming a natural cover-up. Zhang Song activated his vitality and shot forward in a particular direction.

Lu Ye seemed to have seen through his mind as he got in his way and ceaselessly wielded his saber. Countless Saber Lights descended like Stars and engulfed Zhang Song.

When whooshes were heard, Zhang Song’s figure shook again and again. More than ten holes had formed in his body. Instead of charging forward, he was sent flying backwards.

He was a Body-tempering Cultivator with a robust body, after all. Such an injury would easily cause a Spell Cultivator to lose his life. Although Zhang Song appeared battered, he wasn’t at risk of losing his life. He stabilised himself with difficulty and fell on one knee.

The pain in his Divine Soul had intensified as though it had been torn apart. He was in so much pain that his face contorted.

As Lu Ye lifted his left hand and activated his Spiritual Power, a strange sight happened.

The blood streaming out of Zhang Song’s wounds seemed to have turned into a living creature as it crawled across his body. It soon turned into countless blood threads that covered his entire figure.
