Pang Domain.
Pang Domain was one of the largest star domains in the Tianluo Star Sea.
Within the Pang Domain were ten planets, neatly arranged in the starry sky, gazing at each other from afar.
The main star of the Pang Domain was called Pang Star!
It was also the location of the Pang Clan headquarters!
On Pang Star, within a gleaming, resplendent hall.
The Pang Clan's Patriarch, Pang Xishan, and two white-haired Great Elders sat in the high seats.
A large group of high-level Pang Clan members were also present.
"Everyone, during this recent period, Ye Yunfei has consecutively wiped out the Nine Li Imperial Dynasty, *** Country, and the Miao Clan. He is truly on a rampage.
Now, rumors are spreading throughout the Star Sea that next, Ye Yunfei is very likely to target our Pang Clan.
Therefore, we must make preparations and cannot just sit and wait for death," Pang Xishan slowly spoke, his tone somewhat grave.
Ye Yunfei's successive eradication of three factions in such a short time had shocked the entire Tianluo Star Sea.
"The speed of that boy's growth in power is terrifying.
I sent people to investigate; he emerged from a small world in the Xuanhuang Star Domain.
When he first appeared in the Xuanhuang Star Domain, he was merely at the Grotto-Heaven Realm. In a short time, his power surged dramatically, reaching its current height," one elder spoke.
"Therefore, we must spare no cost to kill Ye Yunfei.
If Ye Yunfei does not die, our Pang Clan will face endless future calamities," Pang Xishan said.
"Indeed."
The other Pang Clan high-level members all nodded in agreement.
"I estimate it won't be long before Ye Yunfei steps onto the threshold of our Pang Clan," one of the Great Elders spoke up at this moment.
"Let him come. Our Pang Clan is not the Miao Clan.
If Ye Yunfei dares to come to our Pang Clan, he'll find there is no return for him!" Pang Xishan said coldly.
At the same time.
Somewhere in the starry sky of the Tianluo Star Sea.
Ye Yunfei's flying vessel moved steadily forward.
At this moment, Ye Yunfei was inside the Phantom Tower, together with Hu Miao and Huang Shang, sorting out the spoils obtained from wiping out the Miao Clan.
It could be said that the vast majority of the Miao Clan's wealth and treasures had fallen into Ye Yunfei's hands.
Piles of treasures were stacked like rolling mountain ranges, their ends unseen.
Ye Yunfei, along with Hu Miao and Huang Shang, began categorizing and sorting these treasures.
Spirit Stones, medicinal herbs, elixirs, all kinds of rare treasures, various magical artifacts...
"If either of you find any treasures suitable for your cultivation, just take them," Ye Yunfei said to Hu Miao and Huang Shang.
"Master, don't worry, I won't stand on ceremony," Hu Miao said, sticking out her small, delicate pink tongue.
"I get the feeling your current combat strength is roughly equivalent to a human's Lightning Tribulation realm, isn't it?" Ye Yunfei asked.
Hu Miao hadn't fought for a long time, so Ye Yunfei was a bit curious about her current power.
"You're right, Master. I should be able to deal with late-stage Lightning Tribulation realm practitioners now.
Moreover, my illusion art can affect those at the Domain realm," Hu Miao replied.
"Elder Huang, what about you?" Ye Yunfei looked at Huang Shang.
"My current realm is also roughly equivalent to a human's Lightning Tribulation realm.
However, our ghost cultivators' combat strength far surpasses that of human martial artists of the same level. So, my current power should allow me to battle Domain realm opponents," Huang Shang answered.
"Excellent," Ye Yunfei nodded.
As Ye Yunfei's power continuously rose, Hu Miao and Huang Shang generally had no need to take action, spending most of their time cultivating in seclusion within the Phantom Tower.
And the flow of time within the Phantom Tower differed from the outside world.
Thus, Hu Miao and Huang Shang had essentially undergone several decades, or even a hundred years, of secluded cultivation!
Add to that the various elixirs Ye Yunfei occasionally refined for them to aid their cultivation.
Consequently, Hu Miao and Huang Shang's strength had increased significantly.
Not long after.
Finally, all the treasures obtained from the Miao Clan were sorted.
"Truly worthy of being a first-rate faction in the Tianluo Star Sea," Ye Yunfei couldn't help but remark as he surveyed the frighteningly enormous piles of treasures.
"Master, are you planning to go to the Pang Clan?" Hu Miao asked.
"Yes.
However, before that, I want to raise my strength a bit more.
After all, the Pang Clan's strength is much greater than the Miao Clan's," Ye Yunfei nodded.
"These things should be enough to push my realm up by two major levels," Ye Yunfei said, sweeping his gaze over the treasures obtained from the Pang Clan.
"By the time I emerge from seclusion, I should be able to sweep through the entire Tianluo Star Sea with ease!" Ye Yunfei stated confidently.
Following that.
Ye Yunfei began his closed-door cultivation.
Amidst the mountainous piles of treasures, Ye Yunfei sat cross-legged and began circulating the Nine-Yang Scripture.
Boom…
A golden sphere with a diameter of one thousand meters erupted from his dantian.
This was the Golden Sphere representing the Second Yang of the Nine-Yang Scripture!
Whoosh…
A powerful suction force burst forth from this golden sphere, beginning to absorb the spiritual energy contained within the surrounding treasures.
Vast torrents of spiritual energy, like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea, surged towards the golden sphere.
Boom! Boom!
The Eight Divine Meridians within Ye Yunfei's body also manifested at this moment, like eight golden long rivers, with endless spiritual energy coursing tumultuously within them.
As more and more spiritual energy was absorbed, the volume of the golden sphere began to continuously expand.
And Ye Yunfei's spiritual energy intensity was also continuously rising!
Inside the Phantom Tower.
Six months later.
Boom!
A powerful aura of spiritual energy surged forth from Ye Yunfei's body.
Early-stage Lightning Tribulation realm!
The golden sphere representing the Second Yang had reached a diameter of fifteen hundred meters!
However, this was just the beginning.
This time, Ye Yunfei intended to push his spiritual energy realm up by one more major level!
Time passed.
Unconsciously, a year went by inside the Phantom Tower.
Boom!
A powerful spiritual energy aura erupted from Ye Yunfei's body.
Mid-stage Lightning Tribulation realm!
The golden sphere representing the Second Yang reached two thousand meters!
Following that, Ye Yunfei continued cultivating, assailing his realm.
Another year passed within the Phantom Tower.
Boom!
Ye Yunfei's body trembled, and rolling waves of spiritual energy aura erupted from within.
Late-stage Lightning Tribulation realm!
"Next is the assault on the Domain realm," Ye Yunfei took a deep breath.
"Those so-called Domain realm experts in the Tianluo Star Sea actually don't understand the true mysteries of the Domain realm. It can only be said that they are all pseudo-Domain realm.
I estimate, within this Star Sea, I am the only one who can truly unleash the full might of the Domain realm, this spiritual energy level.
Once I break through to the Domain realm, there will be no one within the Tianluo Star Sea who is my match.
Even when facing a Sea Transforming realm expert, I could withdraw at my leisure!" Ye Yunfei said confidently.
"However, the amount of resources required to cultivate the Nine-Yang Scripture is truly astonishing.
The treasures obtained from the Miao Clan are already more than half consumed.
It seems I'll need to dip into my old reserves," Ye Yunfei smiled wryly.
At this moment, two-thirds of the treasures obtained from the Miao Clan had been consumed by Ye Yunfei!
However, Ye Yunfei's personal wealth was extremely abundant; the amount of cultivation resources he had collected previously was staggering.
With a wave of his hand, Ye Yunfei took out piles of treasures, stacking them around his body.
"Let's refine another batch of Sacred Elixirs to assist in breaking through the realm."
Ye Yunfei took out his pill cauldron and began pill refining.
Over ten days later, Ye Yunfei refined a large quantity of Sacred Elixirs.
Next, Ye Yunfei circulated the Nine-Yang Scripture and began the assault on the Domain realm!
