Wang He was very cautious. Carefully scanning his surroundings, he quickly laid down many Arrays.

 

These Arrays were made from extremely precious Artifacts that he obtained by chance during his travels over the years. Among them were several Killing Arrays created by Dao Realm existences in ancient times. Even the slightest killing intent from these priceless treasures could destroy the galaxy.

 

“Just in case, I should prepare some other countermeasures. Otherwise, I keep feeling uneasy for some reason.”

 

Hardening his heart, he buried the few broken weapon fragments that he possessed at random spots around him. These broken weapon fragments were the embryonic form of a Civilisation Supreme Treasure at one point. They were stained with the blood of an unknown being, which showed no signs of fading away even though millions of years had passed.

 

Normally, he would not have dared to carelessly touch them because they could affect his mind and cause him to suffer from serious backlash.

 

<You sure are careful. I’m glad you aren’t disappointing me.> The voice of the Scavenger Tome’s Artifact Spirit sounded again. She seemed to be watching the situation with a slight hint of mockery.

 

Wang He ignored her and continued to carry out his plans.

 

In the end, he prepared at least ten different types of lethal traps around the simple cave. Even he did not dare to step into those areas. Then, he searched for a hiding spot and temporarily concealed his figure to wait for the subsequent cultivators to arrive.

 

As for what precious treasure was hidden inside the cave, he did not bother to consider them for the time being. After all, he had all the time in the world to figure out everything else once he dealt with his opponents.

 

“If this elaborate plan fails, the consequences are unimaginable. It is only because of your instigation that I chose to do this. Did you even consider what will happen to the both of us if my plan fails?” Wang He’s gaze was calm, like a cheetah waiting for its prey to fall into its trap. At the same time, he conversed with the Scavenger Tome’s Artifact Spirit.

 

<You better not think about failing, because I am not like you.> the Scavenger Tome’s Artifact Spirit replied indifferently, her cold tone remained unchanged.

 

Wang He frowned. His actions certainly constituted a huge gamble to gain benefits. However, the words of the Scavenger Tome’s Artifact Spirit were not untrue. She was just an Artifact Spirit after all. No matter what happened, she would not suffer too much. In comparison, he would most likely lose his life if he failed. On the other hand, success would mean unimaginably abundant resources. Even the more powerful functions of the Scavenger Tome would be unlocked in the process.

 

“There are gains and losses to be had. But I don’t believe that my plan will fail. Inside the Azure Sky Realm, who can truly threaten me?” Wang He’s eyes flickered slightly. Various thoughts flashed through his mind. Then, his originally wavering thoughts stabilised once more.

 

At this moment, he suddenly sensed an aura coming from the foot of the mountain. It was accompanied by the sound of conversation.

 

“It’s just as I guessed… They came after all.”

 

A smile appeared on Wang He’s face. Looking very pleased with himself, he appeared outside the cave with a flash of his figure.

 

<Have they finally arrived?>

 

Strangely enough, the Scavenger Tome’s Artifact Spirit also seemed to be uncontrollably delighted by the turn of events. Her reaction surprised Wang He slightly because her behaviour was quite different from the cold and indifferent Artifact Spirit that he had known in the past.

 

He shook his head and quietly laughed in his heart. At the end of the day, an Artifact Spirit was still an Artifact Spirit. There was a significant difference between Artifact Spirits and Humans. It would seem that she only cared for things that were beneficial to her and rarely showed much interest in other things

 

Afterwards, he clasped his hands behind his back. Frowning in thought, he paced back and forth as though he were examining the special environment here.

 

His plan was to catch his opponent by surprise. When his opponent relaxed their guard and concentrated on the special terrain around here, he would activate the Killing Arrays that he prepared earlier.

 

Compared to hiding in the shadows and acting according to the situation, his current plan was naturally more likely to succeed.

 

…

 

The mountain rose into the sky, straight and steep. Even before climbing the mountain, Mu Yan noticed many spots on the mountain flickering with divine light. These lights had condensed into a cloud of light, which looked absolutely magical.

 

At this point, she had already given the Eternal Divine Furnace to Gu Changge. That was why she no longer held any interest in the treasure hidden at the peak of the mountain. It was just that she was already inside the Azure Sky Realm, so she might as well have a look at what was waiting for her at the top of the mountain. Besides, she was curious whether the Dao Realm figure who proclaimed to be a friend of her Father would be there too.

 

Gu Changge leisurely followed behind Mu Yan, observing the mountain from afar. Unlike what Mu Yan had assumed, his reason for coming here was completely unrelated to the Eternal Divine Furnace.

 

Ever since coming into his possession, the Eternal Divine Furnace seemed to have fallen into dead silence and no longer made any other strange movements. Mu Yan believed that the Eternal Divine Furnace was guiding them forward, but the truth was that somebody else was actually pointing the way for Gu Changge.

 

Back at Breeze Ancient City, Gu Changge had questioned Zhuo You and the others about the Chaos Inn. The reason for his actions was related to this matter. It was just that most of his energy had been focused on the Zhuo Clan and the Hun Clan during that period, so he had not paid much attention to this matter. Now that he had time on his hands, it was just the right opportunity for him to resolve the issue in one fell swoop.

 

The journey did not take long. Mu Yan led the way ahead, being careful and vigilant toward the dangers here. They soon arrived at the halfway point of the mountain. During their climb, the Azure Sky Realm shuddered violently several times. The sky seemed to become considerably more transparent, and the ground shook constantly.

 

Terrifying rifts in the void could be seen in some places. In addition, there was a crack in Spacetime which stretched out across several thousand kilometres. Within the crack was a deep and bottomless abyss, pitch black and terrifying.

 

Even Mu Yan could hear the clear sound of swords. Like the sound of a thousand swords swinging down, the noise reverberated across the universe and came roaring towards them.

 

Mu Yan suspected that there were supreme beings in the outside world trying to blast the Azure Sky Realm apart. Therefore, she could not help feeling worried at the beginning. It was not until she saw that Gu Changge’s expression was no different than usual that she slowly relaxed.

 

She might not know the extent of Gu Changge’s true strength, but it was strangely reassuring to stand next to him. It felt as though nothing would happen to her even if the sky were to collapse around her. Be that as it may, she herself did not know why she had such an inexplicable sense of security whenever she was around him.

 

…

 

Outside the Azure Sky Realm, Li Motian stood in the sky with his sword in hand. He swung the Eternal Divine Sword endlessly, causing the sword lights to flood the entire Great Universe and bombard the portal of the Azure Sky Realm like the raging tide. The entire world trembled violently, almost as though the many Universes would come crashing down at the same time.

 

In the distant lands, numerous pairs of eyes were paying close attention to Li Motian’s movements. The expressions of countless living creatures were cold and indifferent. Although the disciples of their respective Forces were inside the Azure Sky Realm, none of them were worried about the lives of those disciples.

 

Li Motian was wielding the Eternal Divine Sword. Moreover, he had several Divine Eternal Clan Elders by his side. In their opinion, his actions were definitely premeditated.

 

There had always been rumours flying around claiming that the Ancestor of the Divine Eternal Clan were closely connected to the Azure Sky Realm. And now, Li Motian had arrived in person and was trying to break into the Azure Sky Realm. It was most likely to obtain something inside the Azure Sky Realm.

 

At this time, the world was in great turmoil because of the war between the Zhuo Clan, the Hun Clan, and the Wu Clan. The other Clans could be dragged into the battle at any time, so they were feeling extremely uneasy. They were barely capable of protecting themselves. Thus, they dared not interfere in the affairs of the Divine Eternal Clan.

 

It had to be said that even Forces like the Zhuo Clan would not easily provoke the Divine Eternal Clan under normal circumstances. That just went to show just how terrifying and profound the heritage of the Divine Eternal Clan was.

 

On an even more distant battlefield, the Elders of the Zhuo Clan and the Hun Clan were gathered together to confront the Wu Clan from afar. Both Hun Yuanjun and Zhuo Fengxie were also there. Their overwhelming power shrouded the whole universe, and every single living creature could clearly sense their horrifying aura that threatened to destroy the world.

 

The battlefield was located at an empty space outside the Great Universes, where their battle could be seen from anywhere.

 

At this point, even the Dao Realm experts had joined the fight. Every exchange of blows between them caused ripples of the World Principles to spread out, and the waters of the River of Time had gone dry from the intensity of their battles.

 

What more, worlds were created and destroyed with every move they made. Just a snap of their fingers was enough to obliterate a Great Realm that contained countless innocent lives.

 

The number of people that perished during this battle was unaccountable.

 

There was no doubt that this war was an inconceivably horrifying conflict unprecedented in the history of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation. Be that as it may, the current scope of the war only covered the perimeter of the Gou Clan’s territory and not the entire Immortal Spirit Civilisation.

 

“What happened inside the Azure Sky Realm? Why did the Divine Eternal Clan suddenly attack the Azure Sky Realm?”

 

Zhuo Fengxie and Hun Yuanjun, who were supreme figures, had yet to enter the battlefield themselves. They were only watching from the side for now. However, compared to the battle before them, they were more concerned about what was happening at the Azure Sky Realm.

 

They clearly recalled that Gu Changge had departed for the Azure Sky Realm after he finished giving them instructions that day. Would the actions of the Divine Eternal Clan affect Gu Changge and bring unprovoked disaster upon them instead?

 

“This matter is no longer within our control. Looking at the Wu Clan’s actions, it is likely that they have reported everything to the Primary Hope Civilisation by now. Unfortunately, it is impossible for the Primary Hope Civilisation to remain idle. I’m guessing that there are several of their experts heading through the Boundless Expanse and coming here at this very moment…”

 

“Yes. We must finish the war as soon as possible so that we can stabilise the overall situation within the Immortal Spirit Civilisation before they arrive.”

 

They had not planned to take action yet, choosing to wait for the key figures of the Wu Clan and the Gou Clan to appear instead. It was just that the situation in the Immortal Spirit Civilisation would only become increasingly chaotic at this rate, so they immediately stepped forward and joined the battle without hesitation.

 

Countless armies perished on the battlefield like a raging torrent. They disintegrated in an instant, causing millions of living creatures to be obliterated from existence.

 

For a time, all the universes under the jurisdiction of the Immortal Spirit Civilisation were affected by the aftermath. Despite being separated by endless distance, countless trembled in fear and horror. They could feel the fluctuations from the world-destroying battle, which could be said to demolish the world and recreate universes.

 

…

 

In front of the simple cave inside the Azure Sky Realm.

 

Just as Mu Yan expected, she saw the figure of a seemingly young man dressed in Dao Robes standing outside the cave from afar. He seemed to have known that she would come. Judging by his actions, he appeared to be investigating the surroundings as though waiting for her arrival.

 

Wang He looked over, as though he just happened to glance at Mu Yan. The changes that occurred in her during this period seemed to surprise him. However, he did not reveal his astonishment on his face. He simply smiled and took the initiative to ask. “You’re here?”

 

At this moment, Wang He had a splendid appearance which certainly gave him an air of Transcendence.
