"Don't let them escape into the sea!"
Many experts shouted from behind.
Previously, many had witnessed Ye Yunfei and the Mermaid Clan's forces emerging from the sea, knowing they could move freely within these waters.
Boom! Rumble!
Almost all the powerhouses attacked simultaneously. Terrifyingly powerful strikes tore apart the earth, pursuing Ye Yunfei and the others.
With a thought, Ye Yunfei manipulated thousands of Earth Dragons to form several large earth formations to block the attacks.
The Zhang Di Disk appeared. A suspended needle within spun rapidly, stirring up ocean-like surges of yellow earth qi energy that rushed out of the ground like massive rivers, blocking the attacks of the pursuing powerhouses.
Lü Yugang, Heavenly Thunder Chan Master, Tiansha Chan Master, the Mermaid Clan's Old Clan Leader, and all the members of the Four Directions Trading House, Great Thunderclap Monastery, and the Mermaid Clan joined in the defense.
"Accelerate!"
Ye Yunfei controlled the several Red Dragons under their feet, urging them forward at greater speed towards the coastline ahead.
Boom! Rumble!
The attacks from both sides collided, creating deafening explosions. The entire island shook violently, and the surrounding seawater stirred, sending massive waves crashing against the shore.
Pu! Pu!
On Ye Yunfei's side, many with relatively weaker strength spat blood from the impact. Some had their bodies torn open, suffering severe injuries, while others were sent flying backwards, directly plunging into the sea.
After all, the enemy vastly outnumbered them, with far more powerful individuals on their side.
Ye Yunfei had stood protectively beside Lü Dandan, blocking most of the energy shockwaves for her. Ye Yunfei's physical body was exceptionally robust, so he remained unscathed.
"Thank you, Young Master Su," Lü Dandan said, feeling both secretly amazed by Ye Yunfei's complete lack of injury and profoundly grateful.
At this moment, even the four powerhouses – Lü Yugang, Heavenly Thunder Chan Master, Tiansha Chan Master, and the Mermaid Clan's Old Clan Leader – were forced back dozens of steps by the shockwave. Their throats tasted sweet, and traces of blood seeped from the corners of their mouths.
All four were injured!
But by now, they had reached the shoreline.
Without hesitation, Ye Yunfei guided the Red Dragons directly into the seawater.
The Mermaid Clan's Old Clan Leader pointed a finger, and rolling waves of seawater carried those who had fallen into the sea earlier to their group.
"Everyone, from this moment on, we have entered the territory of our Mermaid Clan!"
The Old Clan Leader stood upon the sea surface, looking coldly at the powerhouses who had chased them to the shore.
"They're actually not afraid of this seawater!"
Some of the powerhouses watched as Ye Yunfei and the others stood within the seawater, feeling deeply shocked.
"Those with blue hair are all sea beasts. They live in this ocean, so of course they aren't afraid of the water," Yang Song spoke up.
"Within this sea, dealing with them will be difficult," the Beast Taming Sect's Patriarch said with a furrowed brow.
"This ocean is filled with dangers and crises. We shouldn't think about confronting them here. We should focus on crossing the sea and leaving this ocean first," Yang Song suggested.
"With so many of us, we still couldn't stop them!"
The Zhao Family Ancestor ground his teeth in anger.
"Lü Yugang, you've escaped disaster again!"
Feng Wei's expression was also extremely ugly.
Before coming to the Cangmang Sea, he had secretly contacted several Eastern Barrens powerhouses to join forces within the sea and kill Lü Yugang, intending to seize the position of Head Merchant of the Four Directions Trading House. Yet, he still had no way to deal with Lü Yugang even now.
"Elder Brother Feng, don't worry. We still have opportunities to handle him. Let's cross the sea first, then gather our forces and block the other coast, waiting for them to emerge from the water," the Zhao Family Ancestor said to Feng Wei.
"Thank you for aiding me, Elder Brother Zhao. Rest assured, after I secure the position of Head Merchant of the Four Directions Trading House, I will strengthen long-term cooperation with the Zhao Family and offer profits that will satisfy you," Feng Wei whispered.
"Of course, of course. Elder Brother Feng is thoughtful," the Zhao Family Ancestor nodded, satisfied.
He stood up to help Feng Wei precisely because Feng Wei had promised him substantial rewards!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have stepped in without reason.
By this time, the Mermaid Clan's Old Clan Leader had already led Ye Yunfei and the others back to the ocean floor, entering the area inhabited by the Mermaid Clan.
The Old Clan Leader ordered several palaces to be specially allocated for Lü Yugang and the others to rest and recover from their injuries.
During the previous battle, many were injured and needed quiet recuperation and treatment.
Looking at the underwater region inhabited by the Mermaid Clan, Lü Yugang and the others couldn't help but marvel inwardly.
Previously, when they crossed the sea to reach Cangmang Island, they had traveled by boat on the surface, facing countless dangers at every step, only barely managing to reach the island in the sea's center.
Now, following the Mermaid Clan's forces, they moved freely through this ocean without encountering any danger!
"Respected Seniors, I've refined a batch of medicinal pills for you. Please distribute them for everyone to take and heal," Ye Yunfei said, after entering the Illusory Shadow Tower to refine a large quantity of pills, which he then distributed to Lü Yugang and the others.
Nascent Grade Eighth-Grade, Nascent Grade Ninth-Grade, Silence Grade First-Grade...
Taking the pills Ye Yunfei handed them, Lü Yugang and the others were utterly astounded.
One must know, even among major powers in the Eastern Barrens, Nascent Grade Eighth-Grade and Ninth-Grade pills were exceedingly rare!
Silence Grade First-Grade pills were even more like precious treasures unheard of!
Yet Ye Yunfei had casually produced a large batch. How could they not be shocked?
On Cangmang Island, Ye Yunfei had obtained many Silence Grade pills. Thus, Ye Yunfei now possessed the means to refine Silence Grade medicinal pills.
"Young Master Su, were these pills refined by you?" Lü Yugang suddenly thought of this and asked.
The others were also taken aback.
After all, among the pills Ye Yunfei gave them were Silence Grade ones. If Ye Yunfei had refined these himself, wouldn't that make him a Silence Grade Pill Master?
A Silence Grade Pill Master! In the entire Eastern Barrens, one probably couldn't find a single one!
"Correct, these pills were indeed refined by me," Ye Yunfei answered directly, not concealing it.
Hisss!
Hearing Ye Yunfei's words, Lü Yugang and the other powerhouses couldn't help but draw a sharp breath of cold air.
A Silence Grade Pill Master would be treated as a distinguished guest by any major power in the Eastern Barrens!
"Young Master Su is so young, yet already a Silence Grade Pill Master. Truly astonishing!"
Heavenly Thunder Chan Master couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
The Great Thunderclap Monastery had befriended Ye Yunfei primarily because he had cut the old monk out from the ancient stone at Tianlong Temple and later helped resurrect that monk.
Now, knowing Ye Yunfei was a Silence Grade Pill Master, Heavenly Thunder Chan Master and Tiansha Chan Master became even more resolute in the monastery's decision to befriend Ye Yunfei!
"Young Master Su truly keeps bringing surprises!
He seems to possess limitless possibilities, always able to astound people!"
Lü Dandan, standing nearby, gazed at Ye Yunfei with beautiful eyes shimmering with undisguised admiration.
"Respected Seniors, my spatial treasure possesses a time system different from the outside world. If everyone enters it to recuperate, we can save a great deal of time.
After all injuries have fully healed, we will seek out those fellows for vengeance," Ye Yunfei suggested to Lü Yugang and the others.
"Agreed," Lü Yugang and the others all nodded.
