"What kind of technique is this?"
The Acupoint Opening Realm experts surrounding Ye Yunfei couldn't help but shudder as they looked at the white blade hovering before him, a sense of foreboding rising within them.
Because this white blade was radiating a dense aura of time laws, giving them an extremely strange feeling!
Ye Yunfei stretched out his hand and grasped the blade. Instantly, it elongated, transforming into a white long blade roughly five meters in length, which he then gave a gentle slash.
"Not good!"
In that moment, all the Acupoint Opening Realm experts were struck with terror. They discovered that the time within the space around them seemed to have been suddenly emptied out, as everything froze and came to a standstill.
"Fall back quickly!"
At this point, the leading experts from the various major forces also keenly sensed that something was wrong.
The space occupied by Ye Yunfei and those several dozen Acupoint Opening Realm experts seemed to have turned into a painting!
Only that white long blade was moving slowly.
And at this moment, Ye Yunfei's hair began to turn white at a shocking speed!
Thud!
The white long blade swept past, cleaving a Acupoint Opening Realm expert's head in two, destroying even his soul body.
Next.
Thud, thud...
A string of forty Acupoint Opening Realm experts were struck by the white long blade, falling dead on the spot.
After the white long blade had slain forty Meridian Opening experts, it seemed to begin exhausting its energy and slowly faded away.
Then, the other Meridian Opening experts found they could move their bodies again.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...
The remaining experts were scared to the point their souls nearly leaped out of their bodies. Not daring to linger a moment longer, they scattered like startled birds, fleeing with all their might into the distance.
In an instant, the twenty-plus Meridian Opening experts still alive had all fled far away from Ye Yunfei, leaving him standing alone at that spot.
At this time, half of Ye Yunfei's hair had already turned white!
Ye Yunfei, with half white and half black hair, gave people an exceedingly strange feeling.
"My attainment in time energy cultivation is still far from sufficient.
Within such a short period, using the Time Blade twice in succession has consumed far too much lifespan.
Before I can replenish this lost lifespan, I can no longer employ the Time Blade."
Ye Yunfei couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Although the power of a technique like the Time Blade was terrifyingly formidable, the damage it inflicted on the body was far too great!
After using it twice in quick succession recently, Ye Yunfei had already reached his limit!
Forty Meridian Opening cultivators felled with one blade!
In this moment, everyone present stared at Ye Yunfei with eyes filled with extreme shock, feeling a chill creeping up their spines.
"I understand now. The blade technique he just unleashed exacts a toll of life energy as its price!"
Nangong Yong stared at Ye Yunfei's hair with wariness and suddenly spoke aloud.
The forty Meridian Opening experts Ye Yunfei had just slain were all relatively weaker in strength.
The twenty-plus who had escaped death were all relatively stronger.
Upon hearing Nangong Yong's words, the others also turned their gazes toward Ye Yunfei's hair.
"Though he killed so many, the drain on him must also be incredibly significant!
He might not be able to execute that blade technique again!
Perhaps now is the best opportunity to kill him!"
Jiang Ziping stared at Ye Yunfei, itching to give it a try, and spoke up.
However, though he said this, he didn't dare take half a step closer to Ye Yunfei.
Because he couldn't determine whether Ye Yunfei could still unleash that terrifying blade technique again.
Everyone else shared similar thoughts.
For a moment, the scene fell into a stalemate.
"All together, let's attack! Hack him to death with a flurry of blades!
I refuse to believe he can take on so many of us at once!"
Suddenly, a barefoot middle-aged man in white robes shouted loudly.
He was Deacon Murong from the Guangming Ancient Sect!
His cultivation was at the late-stage Acupoint Opening Realm, having opened thirty-three vital acupoints within his body, and his combat power far surpassed Nangong Yong's.
Yet even he didn't dare charge forward alone to deal with Ye Yunfei.
Because Ye Yunfei, with a single blade, had killed forty Meridian Opening experts—it was simply too terrifying!
"Good!
Let's follow Deacon Murong's suggestion. All of us attack together to deal with Ye Yunfei!
He is clearly severely injured now, making this the perfect time to kill him!"
Another middle-aged man shouted loudly.
Deacon Lu from the Taihuang Sect!
"Then let's do it!"
The leading experts from several other forces also voiced their agreement.
These experts leading their factions' forces were all at the late-stage Acupoint Opening Realm!
Each had opened roughly thirty to forty vital acupoints within their bodies!
In the next moment, everyone began to move, slowly closing in on Ye Yunfei, their spiritual energy rumbling and roaring as they prepared to confront Ye Yunfei collectively.
"In my current condition, I definitely cannot engage all of them in battle.
Better to return and recover first."
Ye Yunfei muttered to himself.
He lifted a foot and stomped down toward the ground below.
Rumble rumble...
Streak after streak of earthen yellow Earth Dragons surged forth continuously from beneath the ground, rushing up toward the sky in a mighty torrent, tightly surrounding and protecting Ye Yunfei in their midst.
There were over seven hundred Earth Dragons in total!
Ye Yunfei had collected these Earth Dragons on his way to the incomplete chaotic universe after leaving Tianzang Tomb.
"Attack! Kill Ye Yunfei!"
The members of the various major forces all surged forward, engaging the Earth Dragons in fierce battle.
Soon, quite a few Earth Dragons were blasted apart.
The power of these Earth Dragons wasn't very strong; they could only hold out for a short while.
And at this moment, Ye Yunfei employed Spatial Transference and, with a single step, instantly reappeared before the mountain gates of Qingyun Palace, walking into its headquarters.
Of the 1,500-plus Formations within Qingyun Palace headquarters, over 1,300 had already been broken, with slightly over 200 remaining.
Following Ye Yunfei's footsteps, the Formations opened and closed continuously.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Yunfei was inside Qingyun Palace's headquarters.
Right then, the seven hundred-odd Earth Dragons had also completely vanished.
"Everyone, break these Formations together!
Once we shatter the remaining ones, we can storm inside and kill Ye Yunfei!"
Deacon Murong from the Guangming Ancient Sect roared, taking the lead as he charged into Qingyun Palace headquarters, holding a white cross in both hands as he began breaking the Formations.
"Ye Yunfei truly is severely drained. He doesn't dare even fight us anymore!
Strike while he's weak! Take his life! Now is the best time to kill him!
Everyone, break the Formations together!"
Deacon Lu from the Taihuang Sect also roared, leading the rest of his forces forward as they joined the effort to break the Formations.
"The Palace Master has returned!"
At this moment, all members of Qingyun Palace surged around Ye Yunfei.
"Palace Master, are you alright?"
Chu Ji gazed at Ye Yunfei's half-white hair and asked worriedly.
"I'm fine. After resting for a few days, I'll fully recover."
Ye Yunfei replied.
Only upon hearing Ye Yunfei's words did the upper echelons of Qingyun Palace feel relieved.
"Palace Master, after just two hundred more Formations are broken, they'll storm in!
Shouldn't we retreat?"
Yang Tianhu suggested.
"No need. As long as I am here, they won't be able to break in."
Ye Yunfei swept his gaze over the members of the various major forces diligently breaking the Formations outside and said calmly.
