Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1750 - 1748: Fame Shakes the World

The period of one incense stick’s time is very brief; regardless of whether the Moon Jade in attendance was fully prepared, they eventually offered their prices. Inside the grand hall, as Luan Xiao’e’s voice rang out again, over ten cultivators from the Three Worlds walked in from outside and collected the jade slips from the Moon Jade attending.

Luan Xiao’e was responsible for examining and tallying up the slips, but ultimately, it was just a formality.

Moments later, she looked up with a smile, "Are the Fellow Daoists from Sifang Island present?"

Zhou Chuang and Kang Cheng quickly stood up, pretending not to be familiar with Luan Xiao’e, and bowed, "Zhou Chuang from Sifang Island greets Island Master Luan."

"Kang Cheng greets Island Master Luan."

Luan Xiao’e nodded, "Sifang Island’s bid is the most sincere, so from now on, this island belongs to Sifang Island."

As her words fell, many Moon Jade within the hall showed signs of disappointment. Some truly wished to take control of Baiyue but missed the opportunity, while others faced it calmly, likely just coming to join the festivity.

Zhou Chuang and Kang Cheng both displayed looks of joy, pretending they got a great bargain.

Luan Xiao’e spoke again, "Fellow Daoists, the Three Worlds cultivators will remain at Baiyue for ten days, during which we will fully assist you in constructing the island’s defenses. Meanwhile, please prepare the corresponding spirit jade."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chuang immediately expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, Island Master Luan."

He was somewhat concerned earlier that if the Three Worlds Island people had left directly, without complete defenses, Sifang Island might not be able to hold against attacks should someone assail them.

But since the Three Worlds Island people would stay for ten more days, the situation was different. Once the defenses on this side were fully established, the defense power would greatly increase, making it impossible to be breached unless an enemy much stronger than Sifang Island attacked.

As for the future, it would be up to Sifang Island to manage slowly, as big island-protecting arrays become sturdier the longer they are maintained. So long as Sifang Island can stand firm in the early stage, there shouldn’t be any major issues.

The cultivators from the Three Worlds considered things very thoroughly, Zhou Chuang thought to himself.

A high-class Spirit Island auction started without any fierce bidding competition and quietly concluded in less than the time of more than two hours.

Baiyue Island was in ruins and had already fallen into the hands of Sifang Island, making it inconvenient for the Moon Jade present to linger, so they bid farewell and left one after another.

Next, the cultivators of the four galaxies began migrating, having received messages from Zhou Chuang and Kang Cheng, Zhang Tingyi and Gao Zhan led a group of Constellations to arrive promptly.

Zhang Tingyi hailed from Daluo and Gao Zhan from Tranquil Moon. Together with Zhou Chuang and Kang Cheng, they were the four late-stage Moon Jades of the four galaxies stationed at All Phenomena Ocean.

The cultivators from the Three Worlds carried on with healing, resting, and assisting the people of the four galaxies in constructing the Spirit Island’s defenses, creating a lively scene.

Lu Ye was also busy, engaged in breaking the restriction locks on storage rings...

In the battle of Baiyue Island, over a thousand Constellations perished from the Baiyue side; even if each individual had only two storage rings on average, that meant over two thousand storage rings, and in fact, the quantity was even greater.

Even though Lu Ye now broke the restriction locks effortlessly, it still required some time.

Fortunately, he wasn’t working alone; he had two helpers, one from the Qingli Dao World and another from the Jade Conch World. Both had some achievements in the Path of Spirit Runes, albeit less efficient than Lu Ye at breaking restriction locks, they still contributed.

Luan Xiao’e, Shui Yuan, Hua Ci, and Old Tang waited nearby, taking adk_vd-vmxjpj>.ministered storage rings to retrieve and sort out the contents.

Luan Xiao’e was the First Island Master, overseeing the finances of the Three Worlds Island, while Old Tang had joined the group after the battle had ended.

A bustling scene.

Lu Ye felt somewhat disappointed as he didn’t find much of the resources suitable for his use among the booty.

His current craving for cultivation resources stemmed mainly from two aspects: treasures that could provide fuel reserves for the Talent Tree and items that could enhance the Magic Source quality.

Some fire-type treasures were found, few in number, but still better than none.

As for items capable of enhancing the Magic Source quality, none were found!

Lu Ye was prepared for this mentally because treasures capable of enhancing Magic Source quality, even in All Phenomena Ocean, often remained in a state of being valued but not on the market.

With a vast number of Constellations and quite a few Moon Jades in All Phenomena Ocean, almost every Moon Jade hoped for higher Magic Source quality, hence great demand for such treasures.

Typically, any Moon Jade possessing such items would have used them up early on, as the sooner they’re used, the greater the benefits.

Back when Ma Shangsi owned a piece of White Moon Crystal, it was mainly because his Magic Source had reached its limit in enhancement. Unless progressing to Sun Blaze, requiring faster cultivation efficiency, enhancing Magic Source quality would be a waste.

Generally, Moon Jade wishing to obtain such treasures would have no choice but to go to the All Phenomena Merchants Guild.

Two months ago, Lu Ye had already sent a message to the person in charge of the All Phenomena Merchants Guild, Cao Xiang, asking him to keep an eye out, but there has been no news so far, which shows the scarcity of such treasures.

It’s not that during this long period, the All Phenomena Merchants Guild found none of these treasures, but there are too many people in demand. Lu Ye asked Cao Xiang for help, but who knows if there are more Moon Jade treasures, with other merchants giving oversight?

There surely are; it might be that the All Phenomena Merchants Guild acquired some of these treasures, but Lu Ye hasn’t been given a turn yet.

Busy for several days, he finally managed to completely break the restriction locks on those storage rings, and he no longer needed to worry about the remaining matters, which were left to the discussion between Luan Xiao’e and Tang Jun.

Ten days passed quickly.

Baiyue Island, ravaged by war, took on a new look, once again having the appearance of a high-class Spirit Island. Various defensive arrangements were almost fully constructed, and some minor details would have to be supplemented by the four galaxies themselves.

With the current lineup of four Moon Jade Late Stage cultivators and a thousand Constellation cultivators from Sifang Island, combined with the existing defenses, unless someone mobilized double the power of Sifang Island, it would be impossible to take it down.

As per agreement, the Three Worlds cultivators prepared to withdraw from this place.

The night before their departure, Zhou Chuang and the other four Moon Jade cultivators hosted a banquet to express their gratitude. The people of Three Worlds Island attended, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Zhou Chuang privately sought out Lu Ye and obtained a section of a branch from the Reincarnation Tree, the purpose of which Lu Ye could easily guess.

Compared to Sifang Island, which the four galaxies previously occupied, the environment of Baiyue Island was much more favorable, not to mention the difference in class of the Spirit Islands, but also the sheer size.

The previous Sifang Island could barely accommodate a thousand Constellation cultivators. However, the current Baiyue Island could easily house two thousand or even more.

Naturally, the four galaxies wanted to dispatch more cultivators to come here. By doing so, not only could the defensive strength of the Spirit Island be enhanced, but more cultivators from the four galaxies might benefit from being here and grow more quickly.

Hence, Zhou Chuang and the others resolved to make a trip back to the four galaxies recently, but the journey is long, and it would take at least a year and a half for the round trip.

The following day, with Zhou Chuang and others seeing them off in person, the Three Worlds cultivators left in a grand procession.

The battle of Baiyue Island shook the All Phenomena Ocean and created several unprecedented miracles.

Firstly, the duration from the start to the end of the battle. In the past, fights for high-class Spirit Islands lasting ten days to half a month were normal, with battles of three to five months not uncommon, and the longest fight for a high-class Spirit Island even lasted several years.

But this battle for Baiyue Island, from the incident to its conclusion, took only one day!

In just one day, an established high-class Spirit Island with an 800-year history changed ownership entirely. If many hadn’t witnessed this event themselves, no one would have believed it when the news came out.

While Baiyue Island is by no means a major power in the All Phenomena Ocean, it is not weak either. No one knows why such a non-weak power collapsed like paper when facing Three Worlds Island.

If the time taken for this battle was shocking, then the casualties on both sides were utterly horrifying.

Several Moon Jade cultivators of Baiyue Island died, almost completely wiped out; even Yu Huan, who fled at the last, was personally executed by Governor Yuan Du for breaking the rules.

On the Constellation level, there were over a thousand people! 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

In contrast, not a single person from Three Worlds Island died!

Such a casualty ratio is simply unimaginable.

Many Moon Jade cultivators who went to watch the battle have revisited the day’s events. All believe that the most significant factor in Three Worlds Island’s brilliant achievements is an unknown method they used to infiltrate Baiyue Island massively before its big island-protecting array was breached, thus disrupting Baiyue Island’s setup.

To this day, no one understands how Three Worlds Island’s cultivators accomplished this feat. Many interested parties have sought the surviving cultivators of Baiyue Island, hoping to learn something useful, but they have found nothing. Even the cultivators on the island itself were clueless.

These people were on the Spirit Island when suddenly, war erupted.

The more one studies the various aspects of this battle, the more terrifying Three Worlds Island appears. On the surface, Three Worlds Island, with five Moon Jade cultivators and a thousand Constellation cultivators, has a standard configuration—not weak, but not overwhelmingly strong either. However, all cultivators investigating the battle know that what they see is merely the surface. Beneath the deep waters of Three Worlds Island lie some unknown hidden factors, which are their reliance for the decisive battle at Baiyue.

Three Worlds Island gained immense fame!

This led to an unthinkable phenomenon—a vast high-class Spirit Island, normally a coveted place for countless forces, remained uninhabited after more than ten days without anyone daring to occupy it. In the grand expanse of the All Phenomena Ocean, this was a first.

The top-tier forces, of course, already possess high-class Spirit Islands and cannot occupy a second.

Mid-tier forces hesitated, fearing the power of Three Worlds Island.

The fate of Baiyue Island was observed by all. Simply because Baiyue cultivators secretly attacked one of Three Worlds’ Moon Jade cultivators, Three Worlds Island retaliated by moving en masse, toppling the home base of Baiyue. Now, if anyone dared to settle on Three Worlds Island, it would mean engaging in a life-and-death battle with Three Worlds cultivators.

No one was willing to repeat Baiyue Island’s tragedy.
