e long before they returned with renewed vigor. Then, this side would likely be unable to withstand them."The words from the Windblume Ode… Brother Ji, you needn't worry too much. There should only...The awakening of amber, and the enhancement of Yi Ling's and Yi Hu's powers, are undoubtedly the only good news in recent times.

Yiyi held the Nine-Array Diagram in her hands. The stronger she was, the greater power the Nine-Array Diagram could unleash. Take, for example, the last time Yiyi fought the fox demon within the Nine-Array Diagram. If Yiyi had been able to wield more of the Nine-Array Diagram's power, then Lu Ye perhaps wouldn't have had to work so hard.

>>It wasn't until several days later that a cultivator, unable to bear the wait any longer, flew straight to the sky above Huitian Valley and cast a spell downwards.

Before he could even react, a shadow fell over him. He opened his blurry eyes and saw that Lu Yiye, who had been sitting by the front of the house just moments ago, was now standing before him, looming down at him.

The lithe, green leaves of the longsword quivered in anticipation as it was raised. Despite being forged from pitch-black rock, its blade shimmered with a razor-sharp gleam.

"Wait...!” Fa Xiu let out a low cry, but the moment the words left his lips, the long blade plunged down.

The blade plunged in from his chest, piercing through his back and taking his life instantly. The cultivator's body twitched a few times before falling completely still.

Dozens of frantic, rushing cultivators from the Wanmo Ridge were now filled with relief…

Thankfully, my speed wasn't fast enough. Otherwise, if I had entered the range of the Forbidden Sky Array, I would have met the same fate as those cultivators.

As for why Lü Yiyè didn't wait for them to enter the range of the Forbidden Sky Formation before activating its power, it can also be understood. It wasn't that he didn't want to do so, but that he dared not.

With the chance of the Empty Great Formation's creation, killing a ninth-level cultivator would be effortless. However, if dozens were to break in, even if I managed to kill some, the rest would still be a problem.

The current situation is the best response.

A few familiar cultivators gathered in groups of three or five, discussing how to safely and effectively kill Lu Yiye and claim the huge reward.

There are also strong and arrogant individuals who stand aloof, observing everything with a cold eye.

The cultivators from the Holy Spirit Land have returned under Mingzhe's leadership again, but instead of gathering together, they have divided into several teams and dispersed to various locations.

Looking at the bustling entrance of Huitian Valley, Mingzhe sighed with relief before letting out a long breath.

He ached for Shengyu's spirit and this area. The losses here were too heavy before, even Huo Liao Yuan Senior Brother fell to Lu Yi Ye's hand. But now, with the arrival of cultivators from all over Wan Mo Ling, the number gathered has already exceeded three hundred. And those who dare to venture deep into this place are all cultivators above the sixth layer realm.

Such a force, even if it just swept past, would be impossible for Lu Yiyuan to resist.

He is surely going to die!

Thus, even Fire Senior Brother could rest in peace now. Looking towards the direction of Huitian Valley, Mingzhe’s eyes were filled with the joy of vengeance about to be served.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

However, the development of things was somewhat different from what he expected.

More and more Maoling cultivators gathered here, including many Ninth Layer Realm experts from first and second-rate sects. However, no one ever attempted to forcefully attack Huitian Valley. It seemed that everyone had reached a tacit understanding, watching and waiting...
