I was saying earlier that as a young man, it was impossible for him to control such immense power given his mentality, level of Soul Power, combat awareness, and experience… To think I would be proven wrong so quickly!
His combat experience is frighteningly seasoned; his battle techniques have reached the pinnacle, even I cannot compare!
And yet, his physical body and level of Soul Power are both capable of withstanding the remnant souls of my old brothers!
Furthermore, every single cultivation art and martial skill he unleashes lies far beyond my own knowledge and insight!
This young man is far too mysterious; just what is his background?”
The grey-robed elder, watching Ye Yunfei kill two experts in quick succession, felt as if tempestuous waves of shock were crashing inside his mind.
Standing over a hundred and fifty zhang tall in the starry void, Ye Yunfei’s aura was vast and majestic, dozens of Primary Dao artifacts revolving brilliantly around his form, exuding an immense oppressive force.
However, no one had noticed that above Ye Yunfei’s head, a small patch of hair had already turned snow-white!
*Whoosh!*
After slicing the old man apart with his blade, Ye Yunfei teleported directly in front of another elder.
The Spatial Teleportation Art he displayed in his current state was simply unfathomable, faintly emanating an arcane, profound spatial law that was impossible to grasp with mere Soul Power!
“You…”
The other elder, seeing Ye Yunfei abruptly appear before him, was so terrified he stumbled backward in retreat.
Ye Yunfei had killed two in succession, his ferocious might awe-inspiring; these elders dared no longer hold the slightest underestimation!
*Boom…*
This elder swung a ritual staff, lashing forward, with rolling energy and pressure that shook the entire expanse of starry space.
“Everyone, come and assist me!”
The elder swung his staff even as his figure rapidly retreated, shouting loudly.
Ye Yunfei pointed a finger, and over a dozen Primary Dao artifacts blasted forth simultaneously, violently colliding with the oncoming staff.
*Boom…*
A rain of shrapnel filled the sky as the staff, refined from several types of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, simply exploded.
*Whoosh…*
Shocked, the elder didn’t dare engage and retreated frantically.
*Whoosh whoosh…*
At this moment, over ten elders arrived at the same time and struck out at Ye Yunfei.
*Boom…*
Behind Ye Yunfei’s head, a patch of space suddenly detonated as a pitch-black giant palm appeared, striking violently toward the back of his skull.
*Swipe!*
An emerald-green longsword swept in from another direction—this was a Primary Dao artifact carrying a terrifying aura as it cleaved toward Ye Yunfei.
*Rumble rumble…*
A violet-gold giant hammer appeared to his right, continuously expanding until it resembled a mountain of gold, crashing down toward the right half of Ye Yunfei’s body.
For a moment, over a dozen elders launched their attacks against Ye Yunfei.
“Young man, be careful!”
The grey-robed elder brandished his spear, which continuously grew until it was like a mountain range sweeping horizontally, simultaneously blocking the attacks of five elders.
However, there were simply too many enemies!
He could not fend off everyone’s assault.
Just at this moment.
*Hum…*
The white Time Blade once again materialized in Ye Yunfei’s palm. Gripping it, Ye Yunfei lashed out with a slash.
Instantly, time in this area of the starry void came to a halt. Everything froze into a single, motionless scene.
All manner of weapons and artifacts attacking Ye Yunfei—longswords, giant hammers, sabers—all stopped, suspended in place.
“No!”
The elder whose staff had just been shattered screamed in terror, for the white long blade was now slowly chopping toward him. He desperately wanted to dodge, but he found his body pinned in place by a terrifying energy of time.
*Squelch!*
The elder watched helplessly as the white blade reached the top of his head, then cleaved straight down from the crown, splitting his body—including his Soul Body—clean in two.
Yet another elder had fallen!
“That is…”
Even as the grey-robed elder felt shock, his gaze suddenly shifted to Ye Yunfei’s hair.
He had noticed that now, above Ye Yunfei’s head, a patch of hair had truly turned snow-white!
Moreover, Ye Yunfei’s visage had grown somewhat aged and weathered!
“I understand! The blade art imbued with the law of time that this brat is using, despite its immense power, exacts a heavy price from him. His vital life force is diminishing!”
One of the elders suddenly exclaimed.
The others had also noticed that patch of white hair on Ye Yunfei’s head!
“That’s correct. But I am still young. The life force I possess is more than sufficient to wipe out at least half of you lot,” Ye Yunfei sneered.
The Time Energy Ye Yunfei currently possessed was still too weak. To force its use in such high-intensity battles was too great a strain; it even required consuming a certain amount of his own life force to replenish the combat energy of that Time Blade.
For all living beings in this world, the life force one possesses *is* a form of time energy!
Hearing Ye Yunfei’s words, the countenances of those elders who had crossed the boundary turned ashen.
They knew Ye Yunfei’s words were most likely true!
“Retreat!
This brat is too bizarre! Let’s go back!”
A tall, thin elder who resembled a bamboo pole suddenly shouted.
“Retreat!”
The others agreed immediately.
*Whoosh whoosh…*
One after another, the elders shot backward, charging toward a spatial passage in the distant starry void—the very passage from which they had originally emerged.
“Where do you think you’re escaping!”
Ye Yunfei and the grey-robed elder simultaneously gave chase.
*Boom…*
The spear in the grey-robed elder’s hands danced forth like a flood dragon, directly jolting one elder to the point his face paled and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.
*Whoosh!*
Ye Yunfei activated the Spatial Teleportation Art, instantly appearing behind another elder. Raising the white Time Blade, he brought it down in a slash.
When this blade stroke was unleashed, one could see with the naked eye: Above Ye Yunfei’s head, yet another patch of hair rapidly changed color, turning instantly snow-white!
At this point, Ye Yunfei’s hair was already one-fifth white!
“Ah…
Kid, you ruthless…!
Everyone, come back and save me!”
Feeling the white giant blade behind him, the elder was terrified out of his wits, shrieking in horror.
But it was already too late.
Time in this patch of space instantly came to a standstill, freezing into a still-life painting!
Only that white giant blade continued its slow, inexorable movement.
*Squelch…*
The white blade cut horizontally across the elder’s waist, slicing him in two, then followed up with another chop that shattered his head and Soul Body simultaneously into a mist of blood.
The fourth expert had fallen!
*Whoosh!*
Ye Yunfei took a single step, teleporting behind another elder, raising his blade to strike.
“Ah…”
No matter how the elder struggled, it was useless.
In the end, the white long blade cleaved him from crown to base, splitting him in half!
The fifth expert had fallen!
“Excellent! Absolutely excellent!”
Witnessing Ye Yunfei kill five in a row, the grey-robed elder trembled with excitement, feeling immense satisfaction.
“Brat! You have slain so many experts from our realm! This enmity shall be avenged!”
At this moment, the tall, bamboo-pole-like elder had already rushed into the spatial passage. Turning back, he fixed Ye Yunfei with a furious glare, roaring angrily.
*Whoosh whoosh…*
The other elders also charged into the spatial passage one after another, each then turning around to glare venomously at Ye Yunfei.
Yet in their gazes, there was also unmistakable wariness!
Every single elder who had crossed the boundary this time was a top-tier expert; in their realm, they were high-level figures of some great power, mighty beings who shook the cosmos!
Yet unexpectedly, five had perished here!
What was even more difficult to accept was that when they had crossed over, each of them had regarded themselves with towering arrogance, treating the creatures living in this half of the Canghuang Realm with pure condescension.
They had even discussed before arriving: once they entered this half of the Canghuang Realm, they planned to strike out with overwhelming force, suppress all its inhabitants, and force these beings to kneel in submission, serving them as cattle and slaves!
But instead, they had suffered such a crushing defeat, being killed and routed in miserable disarray!
The discrepancy was far too great! They had come full of high-and-mighty haughtiness, prepared to trample everything before them—and now they were fleeing back like stray dogs!
“If you want vengeance, you can seek it right now.”
With a flash, Ye Yunfei moved, chasing toward the spatial passage.
“Fall back!”
Seeing Ye Yunfei charging over, the elders jumped in fright, turning around one after another to flee deep into the spatial passage.
*Rumble rumble…*
The spatial passage shuddered intensely, then slowly began to fade away.
“Young man, don’t chase them inside!
If you do, this spatial passage will carry you to the other realm!”
The grey-robed elder called out urgently to Ye Yunfei.
