“Rather than relying on others, we should depend on ourselves. We can’t pray for Heavenly Saint Taoist to lift the barrier. Instead, we must use our own methods to break it. After all, it’s just a sanctuary barrier. Every array has its own weakness, we need to find it,”

Logan chuckled lightly and took a step forward, his gaze firm and resolute. He seemed to have made up his mind to challenge the Heavenly Saint Taoist head-on.

However, his words stunned the three thousand people present. Firstly, if these barriers were removed, it would inevitably offend the Heavenly Saint Taoist. How many could withstand the wrath of a Sanctuary Powerhouse?

Taking a step back, even if the three thousand people worked together, they would surely be no match for a Sanctuary Powerhouse. If there were ten thousand people present, perhaps we could give it a try, but without the strength, we might as well save our energy to defend against the incoming demon beasts.

Some people also sarcastically said: “Don’t think that you become a top array master just by setting up a powerful array. The gap between you and a Sanctuary Powerhouse is never-to-be-bridged in your lifetime. You’re just setting yourself up for embarrassment.”

“Exactly, just because you showed off in front of us, you think you are invincible in the world, and everyone should give way to you. But you forgot something, a Sanctuary Powerhouse will not tolerate any provocation. Once Logan takes this step, wait to be erased by the Sanctuary Powerhouse,” another person spoke up.

Yet another person stood up and looked disdainfully at Logan. If Logan was that strong, why would he agree to stay in the mountains for three days? He should have broken the barrier on the first day and avoided the threat of the Half-step Sacred Throne Demonic Beast and millions of demon beasts. That would have been much safer.

In sum, Logan lacks strength himself and also aspires to be a closed-door disciple of the Saint’s Seat. But there is no great ability on the scene, so Logan feels he can pretend to be superior in front of them. This is just laughable, as none of them are fools.

“Everyone, don’t join Logan. This way, even if there is retribution from the Sanctuary Powerhouse, at least it won’t involve yourself. Let Logan walk further and further on his death path, and we will stand aside and enjoy the show.”

Majority of the crowd agreed and cleared their affiliation with Logan. They decided to let Logan and his group go ahead while they stand aside to observe. Why waste a chance to watch such a good show?

Of course, there are also people who are calculating. They first don’t want to offend Heavenly Saint Taoist and cause a Sanctuary Powerhouse to lose temper. Secondly, they also want to leave this mountain range, so they hope that Logan can open the barrier. They want to sit back and reap the benefits, and anyway if something goes wrong, isn’t Logan the one to blame?

“Enough, anyway, you three thousand people are actually just a burden. We few are enough. You guys just go to the side. But if we break the barrier, we won’t take you along. The next moment, I will close the barrier again and let you fend for yourselves in the mountains,”

As clever as Logan is, he had already seen through their small thoughts. Do they want to be the fisherman who catches the fish and the shrimp? Things are not that easy. Now that they choose to wait and see, they have to bear the consequences of waiting and see.

Everything does not rely on their own efforts, and they place all hopes on the Saint’s Seat’s action. Isn’t that just pipe dreaming? The extravagant hope of ants is still an extravagant hope, and it cannot arouse any sympathy from Great Ability.

Shangguan Bowe walked beside Logan and said with a laugh as they walked: “Once we few people leave, you three thousand people won’t even have the qualification to fend for yourselves. Because the Half-step Sacred Throne Demonic Beast will have no fear as soon as it sees Logan leaving. You will only become food for the millions of demon beasts.”

The three thousand people were furious. These few people were too arrogant. But they had to admit that everything was said correctly. They truly were scared, for Logan gone, the Half-step Sacred Throne Demonic Beast would surely seek revenge. After all, it feared Logan’s Array, not them three thousand people.

All the people were panicked. They were afraid that Logan would really open the barrier and leave, leaving them three thousand people looking at each other. So many people proposed to follow Logan and not to give him an opportunity. Anyway, as long as the barrier is opened, they will break away from Logan the next moment.

Despite the fact that Logan might not be their opponent if the three thousand people united, they could take the opportunity to let half of the people escape, and if the remaining half of the people need to make a sacrifice, so be it. Moreover, Logan may not necessarily kill them. After all, they are all human cultivators, and if he did so, he would be despised.

However, some people were also worried and afraid, saying: “If Heavenly Saint Taoist is secretly watching, will he take out his anger on us as well? We need to think thrice before we act. Since the opponent has said that it is a three-day test, maybe something came up and he forgot. Wait for a while longer, and he will definitely come and open the barrier.”

“Then let’s prepare for both scenarios. Let’s send a hundred people to secretly follow Logan while the remaining two thousand people continue to wait here. This way, no matter if Logan opens the barrier first, or the Sanctuary Powerhouse comes first, we won’t be at a disadvantage,”

Ten Kings discussed and since both viewpoints were valid, they adopted a compromise solution. Upon hearing this, the three thousand people all nodded and then, a hundred people were picked to follow Logan. These hundred had learned divine skills of concealing and could completely shield their own aura.

As long as they don’t reveal themselves actively, unless the other party has stepped into the Dominator realm, they won’t be able to detect them. Especially when Logan’s group is focused on opening the barrier, they won’t even think that people would follow them.

While walking, Logan exclaimed, “I think I understand now. The Heavenly Saint Taoist intends to trap the three thousand people in the mountains, or perhaps wants to use them all to kill all the demon beasts in the mountain range.”

“This… can’t be!” Shangguan Bowe couldn’t believe it. If this were the Heavenly Saint Taoist’s goal, it would send shivers down one’s spine just thinking about it. A Sanctuary Powerhouse could easily destroy the entire mountain range with a full effort. Why would they need ten thousand people to come here and use the lure of accepting a closed-door disciple?

“Perhaps the Sanctuary Powerhouse is about to die and fears the enormous karma. After all, killing millions of demon beasts would create a karma that no one can bear, even a Sanctuary Powerhouse. So it’s best to find outsiders,”

Logan did not confirm or deny, but there was one thing he could not figure out. If one wanted to use ten thousand people to combat millions of demon beasts, it would sound like a fantasy. The combat power of both sides is not on the same level. Unless they sent three million cultivators to wipe out the entire mountain range.

But Ba Ke Yun, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke, “That’s not right, the goal of Heavenly Saint Taoist isn’t to kill all the demon beasts. The few of us have already deterred millions of demon beasts, and now both sides have reached an odd common understanding. The demon beasts will not attack anymore. Wouldn’t the Heavenly Saint Taoist be furious?”

They had free access in the mountains, and even if they stayed for a year, they would definitely be safe. There should not be any conflicts between the two sides and the Heavenly Saint Taoist who was secretly observing must have seen everything. So when their plan was disrupted, why did he disappear without a trace as if he had evaporated?</p
