"With the two Supreme Elders personally overseeing things, we have nothing to fear.
Take a few more people with you and continue gathering information." Chu Ji instructed the steward.
Ye Yunfei had once told Chu Ji that the strength of this Giant Arm was equivalent to the Heavenly Thunder Realm!
Therefore, Chu Ji felt relatively composed.
After all, a Heavenly Thunder Realm expert was already one of the most top-tier powerhouses within the Tianluo Star Sea!
"Yes, sir!"
The steward nodded and turned to leave.
"Has that kid Ye Yunfei still not returned?"
Hun Lao asked.
"The Palace Master has not returned yet.
However, before his departure, the Palace Master did say he would definitely return on time."
Chu Ji answered.
"This kid is really carefree, isn't he? Qingyun Palace hasn't even been officially established yet, and he's already started playing the absentee master, running off to gallivant outside. Could he be a bit more reliable?"
Hun Lao said with displeasure.
Chu Ji gave a bitter smile, unsure how to respond.
Ye Yunfei had cautioned Chu Ji that Hun Lao had an astonishing background and should not be offended.
"Don't worry, that kid will be back on time.
I understand his temperament."
The Giant Arm said.
At the same time.
Deep within the spatial rift brimming with vast amounts of Demonic Qi...
After collecting all several hundred thousand Space Crystals, Ye Yunfei spent some more time cultivating within this rift.
His spatial energy level once again increased significantly!
*Whoosh!*
Ye Yunfei swung his palm in a slashing motion.
Fifty dark, shadowy Spatial Blades appeared, silently sliding and cutting through the space ahead.
"With these Spatial Blades alone, I could hold my own in a fight even if I encountered a Heavenly Thunder Realm expert!"
Ye Yunfei was quite satisfied with the results of this cultivation session.
These Spatial Blades were essentially like movable spatial rifts, incredibly sharp, bizarre, and terrifying.
No matter what it was, once struck by these Spatial Blades, it would be banished to the eternal void of space.
For most living beings...
"Qingyun Palace's founding ceremony is about to be held.
It's time for me to hurry back."
Ye Yunfei stood up.
"However, I should disrupt this spatial rift a bit first."
Ye Yunfei murmured to himself.
The next moment.
The Roc spread its hundred-meter-long wings and began wreaking havoc within the rift.
*Rumble…*
The Roc's twin wings were like two sharp, divine blades, continuously cleaving and shattering space.
Countless spatial fragments swirled and danced, forming spatial hurricanes that roared and surged wildly.
At this moment.
Outside the spatial rift, the six elders had been monitoring the commotion inside all along.
"That young man has been inside for so long and hasn't come out yet. Could something have happened to him?"
One elder spoke, a hint of worry in his voice.
"This spatial rift is far too dangerous.
Its spatial structure is extremely unstable, constantly changing, making it easy to lose one's bearings.
Moreover, it's filled with dense Demonic Qi. Those with slightly weaker wills would be invaded upon encountering this qi, or even demonized.
That young man was too reckless, charging straight in like that."
Another elder shook his head and sighed.
"It's rare for our Canghuang Realm to produce such a monstrous young talent. For him to perish here would be a true pity.
Moreover, this young man threw caution to the wind and charged in to disrupt this spatial rift purely for the safety of our entire realm!
Such dedication is truly rare!"
Yet another elder said.
Just as the six elders were worrying…
Suddenly.
*Boom! Boom…!*
The spatial rift ahead began shaking violently, with tremendous rumbling sounds echoing from within.
"What's going on?!"
The six elders were all startled and wary, their eyes fixed on the rift.
"Could this be caused by that young man?
Is it possible he is truly disrupting the rift?"
One elder speculated.
*Boom! Boom…!*
The disturbances from within the spatial rift grew louder, and waves of intense vibrational energy emanated from it.
Even visible to the naked eye, dense and numerous spatial cracks began spreading outwards!
"This spatial rift is collapsing!
It must be that young man's doing!"
"How is that possible?
How did he manage it?"
The six elders were utterly shocked, finding it hard to believe.
*Boom! Boom…!*
The spatial rift continued to shake violently inside, with billowing spatial hurricanes constantly blowing out.
A moment later.
*Whoosh!*
A figure shot out from within the spatial rift. It was Ye Yunfei.
"Young man, are you alright!"
The six elders immediately surrounded Ye Yunfei upon seeing him.
"I am fine.
Esteemed Seniors, I have re-disrupted this spatial rift.
And this time, I did it more thoroughly.
It will be very difficult for those demons to traverse through this rift now."
Ye Yunfei said.
"Excellent!"
The six elders were overjoyed.
"Six esteemed Seniors, actually, you no longer need to remain here.
Your bodies can be returned to your homelands for proper rest.
If you wish to return, I can take your remains out and later send them back to your hometowns."
Ye Yunfei offered.
"Young man, we appreciate your kind intentions.
However, we have lingered here for ages and have grown accustomed to this place of quiet tranquility.
This is our finest resting place.
Moreover, the beings of the Canghuang Realm, including our descendants, have likely almost forgotten about us six old fogies.
We do not wish to return and disturb them."
The six elders exchanged glances. One of them spoke up.
The other five elders all nodded in agreement.
"So that's the case. Very well, then.
Esteemed Seniors, I am preparing to leave."
Ye Yunfei bid farewell to the six elders.
"Wait, young man. Please take some things out for me. If you ever encounter my descendants in the future, pass these on to them."
One of the elders suddenly spoke.
"No problem."
Ye Yunfei nodded.
*Whoosh! Whoosh!*
Two objects flew out from the elder's remains: a spatial ring and a Message Jade Slip.
Ye Yunfei swept his sleeve, collecting both items.
"These are for you, a gift as a token of our meeting."
The elder added.
*Whoosh!*
Another spatial ring flew out from within his remains.
"Senior, you are too kind."
Ye Yunfei said.
"I have already perished. These things are of no more use to me.
You should take them."
The elder replied.
"Alright then, I will accept them."
Ye Yunfei nodded.
"Young man, I also have some items I entrust you to deliver to my descendants.
Also, there are some gifts for you as well."
Another elder spoke up.
"Me too."
The other elders also spoke up one after another.
Subsequently, the remaining five elders each took out two spatial rings and a Message Jade Slip, handing them over to Ye Yunfei.
"By the way, Senior, I would like to request some of this Spatial Tracking Beast's vital essence blood."
At this moment, Ye Yunfei suddenly remembered the young lady he had met before entering. He addressed the elder the beast was with.
"The Spatial Tracking Beast's vital essence blood?"
That elder was taken aback.
The Spatial Tracking Beast was currently hiding within the elder's embrace, warily eyeing Ye Yunfei.
"Very well."
The elder thought for a moment, communicated with the Spatial Tracking Beast. The beast then used its claw to scratch its own body, releasing a dozen drops of vital essence blood, which floated before Ye Yunfei.
"My thanks."
Ye Yunfei took out a jade bottle and collected the blood essence.
Then, Ye Yunfei bid farewell to the six elders and began making his way out.
