Chapter 150: Slaughter at the Eternal Teachings Sect

"What? Lu Ye is fighting the entire Eternal Teachings Sect by himself?!"

At the Grand Dao Sect, Liu Changfeng shot to his feet.

"According to information from the Heaven's Secret Pavilion, yes—and the news is spreading rapidly. It's about to shake the entire Wildlands."

"He didn’t even say a word to the sect? Pass my order at once: all cultivators at the Convergence Realm and above—assemble immediately! We’re heading out to support Lu Ye!"

"Huh? Sect Master, if he didn’t tell us, doesn’t that mean he doesn’t want us to get involved?"

"Whether he wants it or not is his business. Whether we go or not is ours. At this point, we’re already tied to Lu Ye in the same boat. If Lu Ye dies today, the Grand Dao Sect will be destroyed tomorrow!"

"Bring all our treasures with you!"

"Mobilize!"

This piece of news exploded like thunder.

Lu Ye storming the sect gates of the Eternal Teachings Sect all by himself—it left countless people slack-jawed.

In an instant, a swarm of cultivators began rushing toward the Eternal Teachings Sect.

Some went to aid him.

Some simply went to watch.

Legendary. Absolutely legendary.

One man challenging the Eternal Teachings Sect—this was a once-in-a-millennium event.

How could anyone not want to see it?

Countless spells rained down toward Lu Ye, blanketing the sky.

At that moment, Lu Ye’s figure drifted like a feather. He used the Floating Feather Technique—perfect for this situation.

Pure defense would’ve been meaningless. So many spells would reduce even the strongest shield to dust. But the Floating Feather Technique let him move like a feather in the wind.

The very gusts stirred up by the spells became the winds that carried Lu Ye away from them. He strolled leisurely through the sky.

Yet each step brought him closer to the Eternal Teachings Sect.

That calm, unhurried bearing left the Eternal Teachings Sect breathless.

What kind of technique was this?

How could he dodge such a storm of spells so effortlessly?

"Keep firing! I don’t believe he can dodge them all!"

Feng Changye donned a pair of innate spirit treasure gloves, immense power surging in his hands.

"Eternal Undying Palm!"

At that moment, Lu Ye felt himself locked in.

Palm shadows gathered from all directions, fusing into a massive hand that blanketed the sky and slammed downward.

Supreme Sword!

A brilliant sword light contracted to a single thread.

The giant palm was instantly sliced in two.

The palm winds howled—but they couldn’t so much as touch Lu Ye.

Feng Changye sucked in a sharp breath.

Terrifying.

This guy...

No wonder he alone had reversed the tide of the foreign invasion.

A monster like this—only a Great Ascension Realm cultivator could possibly deal with him!

Great Ascension!

We have to reach Great Ascension!

"Hold the line! Feng Hou—go attempt the breakthrough! Don’t forget to use the Pure Spirit Talisman!"

The Pure Spirit Talisman was a charm bestowed by the Upper Realm. It could purge all corruption. The Upper Realm had concluded that Ziyang Daoist’s catastrophe may have been caused by a curse.

"Understood!"

Feng Hou quickly retreated to the rear of the sect.

Moments later, an enormous tribulation cloud began swelling madly in the sky.

Again?!

Feng Changye’s face turned grim.

He had a bad feeling—maybe they needed to switch people. Whoever gave out those tribulation pills must have been cursed. Even the Pure Spirit Talisman might not help.

"Xuanji, you go attempt tribulation. Fenghua—give her your pill!"

"Yes!"

Lu Ye slammed a fist into the sect’s protective barrier. The massive array quivered faintly.

Feng Changye let out a sigh of relief.

So Lu Ye couldn't break through the barrier that easily after all.

There was still time—enough time!

Xuanji ran to the rear and began her tribulation attempt.

Feng Changye stared at the clouds without blinking.

The tribulation cloud expanded to 300 li—then finally stopped.

Feng Changye exhaled deeply.

As expected—that’s more like it.

"Xuanse, your turn to ascend!"

"Fengyin, you as well!"

"Changsheng, go now too!"

"Move!"

A total of seven Tribulation Crossing Pills had been available. Two were destroyed earlier, and the remaining [N O V E L I G H T] four were now being given to different cultivators. Feng Changye kept one Tribulation Crossing Pill and one Heaven-Hiding Pill for himself.

In truth, he was the strongest Tribulation Crossing Realm cultivator.

But now? He didn’t dare to attempt it.

Who knew if his tribulation cloud would expand two thousand li, or if golden-lined silver lightning would descend from the sky?

If that happened—he wouldn’t even leave a corpse behind!

This was definitely Lu Ye’s doing.

Once Lu Ye was dead, there would be time to ascend.

BOOM!

Lu Ye punched the barrier again. It quivered slightly once more.

Not a single spell could touch him.

But why was he dragging this out?

This wasn’t like Lu Ye at all.

His style had always been to rush in, kill everyone, loot the resources, and be done.

This time, all this stalling made him seem like some fussy woman—utterly annoying.

But Lu Ye had his reasons.

The Banner of the Human Sovereign was now fully repaired. He hadn’t gotten to use it in his past life, and he wanted to give it a proper try this time.

They said that when people were in fear, their souls made for the finest cultivation material for the Ten Thousand Soul Banner...

Lu Ye wanted to test that for himself.

The fourth punch.

The fifth.

The sixth.

As the seventh punch landed—

Crack...

A crisp sound rang out. In the blink of an eye, countless fractures spread like shattered tempered glass.

Everyone in the Eternal Teachings Sect gasped.

The barrier cracked?

How?

Impossible!

This was the sect-protecting formation built with endless resources and the finest treasures. Countless craftsmen had poured their skill into it.

It was said to be the number one formation in the entire Wildlands—and now, it cracked?

Lu Ye wandered casually between waves of spells, calmly pounding the formation over and over.

Now that it had cracked, each successive blow from Lu Ye felt like it was hammering their very hearts.

Fear began to rise.

And it only grew stronger.

Lu Ye figured the first wave of tribulation attempts should be nearly complete.

Double the fear—let’s see if the souls of the Eternal Teachings Sect were delicious enough.

He placed his hand on the light barrier of the formation.

Then pushed with full force.

BOOM!

The barrier that had stood for thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of years—

Collapsed completely.

"Lu Ye—your death is at hand!"

An enormous aura roared toward him from afar.

It was a power that should not exist in the First Heaven.

Great Ascension Realm!

Golden light tore through the sky. The Eternal Undying Palm, powered by a Great Ascension cultivator, had been pushed to its utmost limits. Countless palm shadows converged—some even descended from the heavens themselves.

Lu Ye inhaled lightly.

Silkworm’s Ninefold Metamorphosis.

In an instant—Ninth Layer of the Tribulation Realm.

Crossing realms, he couldn’t raise his level by nine layers.

But without crossing realms? Gaining nine layers in one go was no problem.

The Great Dao roared.

Heaven and earth resonated in unison.

Heavenly Venerable Fist!

A punch—pure brutality wrapped in divine grace.

It collided head-on with the Eternal Undying Palm unleashed by the Great Ascension cultivator.

The punch-force blasted through thousands of li.

The Eternal Undying Palm shattered like dry wood. The Great Ascension cultivator’s body exploded into fragments, scattering across the sky.

Lu Ye looked down at the entire Eternal Teachings Sect.

The black-bannered, gold-veined Human Sovereign Banner snapped in the wind.

Let annihilation begin.
