Chapter 597: Sacred Universe Arcane de


    <


    ></previous>


    The Arcane de was unharmed. After all, this ce was deep within Grand Wilds Peak, and even if cultivators passed by, they wouldn’t necessarily notice anything due to the Wards set up by Lu Ye that shrouded this ce.


    After activating the Grand Ward’s Control Gem, they entered the Arcane de, where they were greeted by a beautiful scenery. On the soft green grass, many wolf cubs were frolicking and ying around. The adult Wolf Mutants who stayed behind to guard the Arcane de weren’t many, only about a dozen or so. When they sensed themotion and confirmed that it was Lu Ye and the others returning, they paid no further attention to them.


    It took another five or six hours before the wolf pack returned in its entirety.


    Wolf Mutants couldn’t fly, so they were much slower than Lu Ye and the others.


    At this moment, Lu Ye stood before the Divine Opportunity Column and connected his consciousness to the Vault of Providence, purchasing arge quantity of materials.


    The location of the Arcane de had already been exposed, and Tan Sheng and Xia Liang were unlikely to just give up so easily. It could be foreseen that it wouldn’t be long before cultivators from Thousand Demon Ridge woulde to attack. Since they had decided to temporarily stay within the Arcane de, it was necessary to set up some Wards, especially Teleportation Wars. Although the Arcane de had the Divine Opportunity Column that Lu Ye brought, allowing them to return to Jiu Zhou at any time, it still wouldn’t hurt to set up a few Teleportation Wars.


    After acquiring the materials, Lu Ye began refining Ward gs.


    He had recently crafted arge number of Ward gs in Fox Immortal Valley, but they had all been consumed, which resulted in his sessful assistance in the Fox Mutant’s ying of the Berserk Giant Ape.After a few days, he started refining Ward gs again, and the feeling waspletely different. It was easier to refine them now.


    This was not only the result of his cultivation level increasing but also his Mental Power bing stronger. With a strong mind, he could control Spiritual Power more intricately.


    In the past, it took him several days to refine two Ward gs, but now he could make three, which was a great improvement in efficiency.


    Li Baxian and Feng Yuechan were responsible for searching for suitable locations to set up Teleportation Wards in the surroundings. As for Ju Jia, he couldn’t help much, so as long as he didn’t cause trouble, it was already good enough. Since their return, he had been in cultivation.


    While the group was busy here, in another valley less than 1,500 kilometers away from Ameliorate Valley, in a Grand Ward enveloped area, cultivators were frequentlying in and out.


    This ce was the Sacred Universe Arcane de, which was also marked on the 10-point map sold by the Divine Trade Association.


    The Sacred Universe Arcane de had existed in the Cloud River Battlefield for over twenty years and was considered one of the more famous Arcane des in the vicinity.


    Compared to Lu Ye’s Arcane de, the Sacred Universe Arcane de was undoubtedly arge one. With over twenty years of development, the scale of the Arcane de had continuously expanded. Currently, there were over a hundred cultivators in the entire Arcane de. Looking across the entire Cloud River Battlefield, there weren’t many ces that wererger in scale than the Sacred Universe Arcane de.


    What was particrly rare was that a few years ago, the Sacred Universe Arcane de had been promoted from a Secundus-level Arcane de to a Primus-level Arcane de.


    The level of an Arcane de could be upgraded, and the scale could be expanded by integrating more Wisps of Sanctification into it. In the case of Lu Ye’s Arcane de, it was already a Primus-level Arcane de, the highest level, but if Lu Ye could obtain other qualities of Wisps of Sanctification and ced them in the Spirit Spout, the level of the Arcane de wouldn’t be improved, but the scale would expand. The higher the quality of the integrated Wisps of Sanctification, the greater the expansion of the scale, allowing more cultivators to reside in it and cultivate.


    In general, the development ofrge-scale Arcane des in the Cloud River Battlefield followed the same step-by-step process.


    Many Sects had their exclusive Arcane des that were passed down from generation to generation.


    This had significant long-term implications for the development of Sects because once their disciples advanced to the Cloud River Realm, they could enter the Arcane de to cultivate in peace.


    However, for many cultivators, cultivating in the Arcane de was not without its drawbacks. It provided stability butcked the strive and the spirit.


    So, even for sects with inherited Arcane des, the cultivators wouldn’t stay in the Arcane de all the time. They would frequently go out to hone themselves.


    The Sacred Universe Arcane de was not the exclusive Arcane de of a single Sect but rather belonged to two.


    One was Cult ckfyre, and the other was the Universe Sect.


    Both were Sects from Thousand Demon Ridge and happened to be in the same region of You Zhou. They had a good rtionship, so when their acolytes arrived in the Cloud River Battlefield, they naturally helped each other.


    Currently, the cultivators of the Sacred Universe Arcane de were led by two Ninth Order Cloud River Realm experts. One was Huo Liaoyuan from Cult ckfyre, and the other was Tu Guanxiong from the Universe n.


    Having only two Ninth Order Cloud River Realm cultivators lead over a hundred people in an Arcane de may make it seem small, but it was not to say that they were the only ones in the Ninth Order. Even if Cult ckfyre and the Universe n were not First Tier Sects, they were still Fourth or Fifth Tier Sects. It was not possible for them to have only two Ninth Order Cloud River Realm cultivators.


    However, Cloud River Realm cultivators didn’t stay in the Cloud River Battlefield all the time. Especially after reaching a high cultivation level, they spent most of their time in Jiu Zhou. Improving their cultivation was secondary. Achieving personal growth through experiences was more important.


    Even if they had to stay in the Arcane de to take care of their Junior Brothers and Sisters, they still couldn’t possibly stay there all year round.


    The ones who stayed still only did so on a rotational basis. They would be reced by other Ninth Order Cloud River Realm cultivators after three months once their time was up.


    Inside a secluded room, Huo Liaoyuan was in the midst of cultivation. When he sensed some movement from his Battlefield Imprint, he didn’t check on it immediately but remained quietly seated.


    After an incense stick of time, he slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of impure Qi.


    He touched the Battlefield Imprint to check, and as soon as he did, his expression changed slightly. This message was sent by one of his Junior Brothers who was traveling around to train in the Cloud River Battlefield, but it was the information in the message that caught his interest.


    After thinking for a moment, he sent out a message and hurriedly got up.


    Leaving the room, he went straight to another building. Before he could knock on the door, it opened by itself and a figure appeared before him. It was Tu Guanxiong, the other Ninth Order Cloud River Realm cultivator in the Arcane de.


    Tu Guanxiong weed Huo Liaoyuan inside and asked, “Senior Brother Huo, is the information reliable?”


    “It was a message sent by Nan Cheng from the outside. Whether it’s urate or not, I can’t confirm,” Huo Liaoyuan replied.


    Tu Guanxiong thought for a moment and recalled who this ‘Nan Cheng’ was. Both sects had more Ninth Order Cloud River Realm cultivators than just the two of them, and there were also more Cloud River Realm cultivators from both sects than the mere hundred in the Arcane de.


    However, the Arcane de could only amodate a hundred cultivators for cultivation. Therefore, more acolytes were scattered throughout the Cloud River Battlefield in search of their own opportunities.


    “Where did he get the information?” Tu Guanxiong asked.


    Huo Liaoyuan exined, “Someone passed on the message to him, and the person who received the information heard it from somewhere else. The source cannot be determined.”


    “What does Senior Brother Huo think about the credibility of this information?”


    “Until we see it with our own eyes, it’s hard to believe any piece of information. However, when ites to Lu Ye, it’s worth investigating. What concerns me is that the information that came seemed too detailed,”


    The information he received not only included Lu Ye’s current location but also the various forces within his Arcane de, including the cultivation levels of Li Baxian and others, as well as the rtivelyrge wolf pack.


    “Is Senior Brother Huo suspecting that…” Tu Guanxiong was thoughtful.


    “If I’m not mistaken, someone suffered a big loss at Lu Ye’s hands and had no hope of revenge, so they want to use someone else as a pawn to kill him!” Huo Liaoyuan paused. “To have nearly three hundred Wolf Mutants… Yi Ye is no Beastmaster, so how does he manage to control them?”


    Even if he were a Beastmaster, it was impossible to control so many Wolf Mutants.


    “If that’s the case, we might not be able to handle it,” Tu Guanxiong said worriedly. However, he knew about the grudge between Cult ckfyre and the Crimson Blood Sect, and that Yi Ye carried a huge bounty on his head. If he knew such details, then surely Huo Liaoyuan must be tempted as well. Otherwise, he wouldn’t havee to discuss this matter with him.


    Not to mention Huo Liaoyuan, even he himself was tempted. After the incident at the Carnage Colosseum, Yi Ye extorted a significant amount of resources from the major Sects in the Spirit Creek Battlefield’s Thousand Demon Ridge, and the bounty on him from the Thousand Demon Ridge had increased again by a considerable amount.


    During these days, countless people in the entire Cloud River Battlefield were searching for Yi Ye’s whereabouts, but unfortunately, they came up empty. No one knew where he was. Now that they had an exact location, who wouldn’t be tempted? If this information were to be spread, it would only take a few days for that ce to be crowded with people.


    However, the person who leaked the information chose not to spread it but instead delivered it straight to Cult ckfyre, so it was clear that they weren’tpletely giving up yet.


    “They do have a considerable number of Wolf Mutants, but with careful nning, we may still have a chance to get Yi Ye.”


    Previously, Lu Ye’s cultivation was only in the Third Order Cloud River Realm. Even if he received the reward from the Roster of Carnage, his cultivation wouldn’t have changed much. When dealing with such an enemy, they could strike a fatal blow on him as long as they were given an opportunity, so why even bother getting entangled with the wolf pack?


    “In any case, have someone go and investigate first. We need to confirm if the information is reliable. As for those who are just nning to sit by and wait for the fish to swim into theirs…” A cold glint shed in Huo Liaoyuan’s. “We’ll have to see whether they have the ability to snatch the opportunity or not!”


    For them to act so covertly indicated that they were acting alone andcked power, but they had the power of an entire Arcane de behind them, so what was there to fear?


    “I understand,” Tu Guanxiong agreed and immediately sent out a message.


    When it came to investigating such matters, a Ghost Cultivator was naturally required to take action. However, almost all of the acolytes in Cult ckfyre were Spell Cultivators, and it was impossible to find a single Ghost Cultivator among them. They could only rely on the Universe n to send someone.


    In just a moment, a small and lean man stepped in. “Senior Brother Tu, Senior Brother Huo.”


    Tu Guanxiong said, “Yan Gui, I want you to go and investigate a ce.”


    The Ghost Cultivator Yan Gui responded, “Please instruct me, Senior Brother.”


    “Go to Ameliorate Valley!”


    Yan Gui took out a 10-point map, quickly examined it, and located the position of Ameliorate Valley. He raised a brow. “This ce is already deep into Grand Wilds Peak. Senior Brothers, what is over there?”


    “You’ll know once you’re there.” Tu Guanxiong didn’t explicitly say, fearing it would give their Junior Brother a biased impression. “Remember, investigate carefully, be cautious. It… might be dangerous there.”


    Yan Gui didn’t mind, “Don’t worry, Senior Brother. I will be cautious.”


    Even though his cultivation level was not particrly high, he was still in the Seventh Order Cloud River Realm. Moreover, as a Ghost Cultivator, he excelled in the art of sneaking, and gathering intelligence was a simple task for him.


    “If you discover anything, report back immediately.”


    “Yes!” Yan Gui epted the order and left the room. Using his telekic techniques, he soared into the sky.
