Chapter 1517 -1517: The Strength of the Leader of Cloud Sect
Ethan Smith observed Eternal’s expression, a cold sneer spreading across his face.
Eternal gripped the Purple-gold Pole tightly, let out another explosive shout, and finally, the formation completely collapsed!
Inside the Cloud Sect, the atmosphere was heavy with tension.
They stared at the Deputy Sect Master, seemingly awaiting his command.
Though many opposed the Deputy Sect Master’s decisions, they were still willing to lay down their lives for the Cloud Sect.
“Everyone, hear my command, in the Cloud Sect, there shall be no survivors!” Eternal coldly issued the order.
“Yes!”
For an instant, the great war ignited, and the Deputy Sect Master roared ferociously, charging into the battlefield first!
This was a war the likes of which had never been seen before, a war whose outcome no one could predict! Wild divine power surged everywhere, and under its radiant glow, the sky itself transformed.
Even though the Cloud Sect’s main forces had been drawn away elsewhere, as a sect standing tall for countless years, its hidden foundations were unimaginable.
For an instant, a mysterious power erupted from the Cloud Sect. This power enveloped every person within its ranks, causing their strength to ascend in that moment.
The earth trembled, and Cultivation Mountain intermittently radiated divine brilliance.
In this interplay of light and energy, every member of the Cloud Sect became extraordinarily courageous and powerful!
The Deputy Sect Master slew countless foes before finally facing Eternal.
Outside the battlefield, countless onlookers spectated. When the war broke out, none could predict who would emerge as victor, and even now, the outcome remained an enigma.
The Cloud Sect was simply too shrouded in mystery, with a power so unfathomable, even the Deputy Sect Master himself had no idea where it originated!
The two sides fought for three days without a conclusion. This place became the largest battlefield of the age!
And as the Cloud Sect and Eternal City clashed, far away within a tomb, Ethan Smith also sensed signs of a breakthrough.
Dark energy flooded through his body, bringing him to a complete balance of yin and yang.
Ethan abruptly opened his eyes, and a surge of energy shot straight through his crown!
Mists emanated from strands of his hair, shrouding him in mystery and unpredictability.
“I’ve finally sensed signs of breaking through.” Ethan felt an immense joy in his heart!
Good fortune was on his side this time, unlike the unpredictable calamities he had encountered before. Everything was proceeding smoothly.
Stepping into the Mighty Realm necessitated enduring an unprecedented heavenly tribulation.
For someone like Ethan, who was a prodigy of his generation, his heavenly tribulation was bound to be incomparably terrifying!
“Come to think of it, the war between the Cloud Sect and Eternal City has actually created circumstances favorable for my breakthrough,” Ethan mused.
Under these conditions, Ethan no longer needed to worry about anyone sabotaging him during his breakthrough.
That being said, Ethan deliberated internally and ultimately decided to find someone to act as his guardian.
The most suitable person, of course, was Justin Vasquez.
In the Southern Province, among those strong and trustworthy enough, apart from Salena Carpenter, there was only Justin Vasquez.
Thus, Ethan wasted no time. Summoning the Divine Eagle, he immediately set out for the Vasquez family.
Soaring through the skies, Ethan sat cross-legged atop the eagle, resembling an immortal figure.
It was unclear how long he had flown when Ethan suddenly sensed a strange and intense energy.
“Such intense murderous spirit,” Ethan exclaimed in shock.
He promptly activated the Desolate Divine Eye, directing his gaze toward the source of the murderous spirit.
With the augmentation of the Desolate Divine Eye, nothing could remain hidden.
The source of that murderous spirit was none other than the Cloud Sect!
At the sight before him, Ethan couldn’t help but be profoundly stunned.
The sect seemed transformed into an ancient battlefield, its entrance stained scarlet with blood.
The once-majestic and imposing Cloud Sect had now devolved into ruins.
Except for Cultivation Mountain, everything else had been reduced to devastation!
The Deputy Sect Master and others fought valiantly amidst the bloodshed; even when facing Eternal, they showed no signs of yielding, forcing Eternal into repeated retreats!
“How could this be!” Ethan gasped in shock.
After all, the Deputy Sect Master had once been defeated by Gregory Hum in just a few rounds! Now, how could he display such bravery against Eternal?
Could it be that Eternal’s strength was actually inferior to Gregory’s?
That was impossible! Both were figures standing at the pinnacle of the Southern Province, and even if there were disparities between them, they couldn’t be drastic!
Thinking it over, there was only one explanation: the Cloud Sect must still possess some hidden, mysterious power.
Under the influence of this latent power, everyone’s abilities had been significantly elevated.
Ethan withdrew the Desolate Divine Eye and murmured to himself, “It seems the Cloud Sect isn’t as simple as it appears. It’s fortunate I didn’t rashly charge through their gates back then…”
If he had entered the Cloud Sect unprepared, he would have surely met his doom!
Ethan sat atop the Divine Eagle, sinking into deep contemplation.
“Perhaps… I should lend Eternal a hand,” Ethan inwardly speculated.
This was his best opportunity, and it might even be his only opportunity in the short term.
With this thought, Ethan accelerated his pace.
Only by stepping into the Mighty Realm could he leave his mark on such an epic battlefield.
Several days passed.
Ethan finally arrived at the Vasquez family estate.
The Vasquez family remained tranquil and harmonious, as though detached from all external chaos.
What displeased Ethan the most was seeing Guinevere Lee among them.
“That vile creature,” Ethan cursed inwardly.
Ignoring Guinevere, he strode directly toward Justin Vasquez.
“Mr. Smith?” Justin’s expression was one of mild surprise upon seeing Ethan, but he quickly ushered him to a seat.
“Mr. Smith, Eternal City has already gone to war with the Cloud Sect, and now the battle has already reached a stalemate.” Justin said with a smirk.
Guinevere eagerly chimed in, “Mr. Smith, your foresight is remarkable. You spotted Cloud Sect’s impending downfall early on.”
“I wouldn’t be so sure. Eternal has deployed all its forces against the Cloud Sect. It’s been several days now without any real progress,” another person interjected.
Intrigued, Ethan remarked, “On my way to the Vasquez family estate, I passed by the Cloud Sect. I’m very curious, why are they showing such extraordinary strength in battle?”
“It’s due to the Diverse Divine Brilliance,” Justin replied.
Ethan, slightly astonished, turned to Justin and asked, “What is the Diverse Divine Brilliance?”
Justin explained, “The Cloud Sect’s inherited magic weapon, it has the ability to shield a domain. Within its range, the followers of Cloud Sect experience a surge in power.”
Justin added with a smile, “Back in the day, my father had the chance to witness it firsthand.”
“What? Your father actually tangled with the Cloud Sect?” Several people exclaimed in shock.
Justin shook his head, saying, “I wouldn’t call it a ‘grudge’; my father once sparred with the leader of the Cloud Sect and ultimately lost.”
This revelation left everyone stunned, Ethan included!
“Justin, if I remember correctly, wasn’t your father at the Reversion Void Stage? Could it be the leader of the Cloud Sect was also a cultivator of the Reversion Void Stage?” Ethan asked with a furrowed brow.
If that were the case, then the leader of the Cloud Sect was undoubtedly the undisputed number one in the Southern Province!
Justin chuckled, “At that time, my father hadn’t yet stepped into the Reversion Void Stage, though he was merely one step away.”
“But the leader of the Cloud Sect defeated my father utilizing the Diverse Divine Brilliance.”
Ethan said nothing, but deep inside, he was utterly shaken.
Justin’s father had been dead for many years. Back then, the leader of the Cloud Sect had already been capable of defeating someone on the brink of entering the Reversion Void Stage. What about now?
