Swish!
Just as the crowd was abuzz with discussions, a figure rushed in front of the disintegrating Space-Time Channel. It was the master of Longevity Palace.
In a flash of his figure, without the slightest hesitation, he directly charged straight into the collapsing passage.
"Palace Master, don't!"
The people of Longevity Palace paled with fright, all rushing before the Space-Time Channel and shouting desperately.
"Palace Master, this Space-Time Channel is disintegrating! Both time and space are unstable! Anyone who forces their way in, regardless of strength, risks being cast adrift into unknown spatial regions! You absolutely must not go in!"
An elder of Longevity Palace cried out anxiously.
This Palace Master was the central pillar of Longevity Palace. If something were to happen to him, it would be a massive blow to the palace.
"Palace Master, think it over carefully! This channel is collapsing! Time and space inside are both falling apart! It's far too dangerous!"
Other leaders from the major powers also began to advise against it.
"Just wait for me outside! I am going in to rescue my daughter!"
The Palace Master did not stop. Instead, he accelerated, charging into the Space-Time Channel. Surging waves of Time Energy and Space Energy erupted from his body, aiming to forcefully stabilize the disintegrating spacetime around him.
As one of the most powerful top-tier experts of the Central Divine Land, his strength was naturally terrifying. However, within such a space-time channel on the verge of total dissolution, not even the strongest power could halt the collapse.
Rumble...
After a few breaths, the channel emitted a deafening roar and finally, completely disintegrated.
The Palace Master's figure vanished completely.
"Palace Master, come back!"
The people of Longevity Palace could not accept this reality. Some roared in unwillingness.
"What a pity. Who would have thought the distinguished master of Longevity Palace would perish here," someone lamented secretly.
Of course, quite a few others secretly felt a sense of glee, inwardly cheering for this turn of events. This Palace Master's reputation across the Primordial Continent was far too resplendent, stirring up jealousy in many powerful figures.
"Su Fei! This is all because of Su Fei! If he hadn't captured Young Lady and Rou'er, our Palace Master would never have dared to charge inside! From this moment on, Su Fei is a sworn enemy of our Longevity Palace! We will have our revenge!"
Someone from Longevity Palace roared furiously.
"Let us hope our Palace Master is unharmed. With his strength, perhaps he succeeded in crossing through." Others within Longevity Palace clung to this shred of hope.
"Esteemed friends, this Su Fei counts the Ziwei Sect from the Eastern Barrens as his origin! If we are to seek vengeance on Su Fei, we must first send people to the Eastern Barrens to settle scores with Ziwei Sect! Furthermore, according to the investigations of our Corpse World, besides Ziwei Sect, there are many other forces and individuals in the Eastern Barrens related to Su Fei. None of them must be spared! All must be exterminated! Su Fei, as a human, actually betrayed our kind and sided with the Demon Race! He is a stain upon the entire Primordial Continent! I suggest that we gather the forces of the various major powers of the Central Divine Land and march together to the Eastern Barrens to eradicate every single force and person related to Su Fei! What do you all think?"
Suddenly, an elder from the Corpse World spoke clearly.
"I agree! Our own Second Elder was tragically killed by the Demon Race in Heaven Beyond Heaven! This account must be settled both with the Demon Race and Su Fei! My sect will dispatch men to the Eastern Barrens to purge all forces and individuals related to Su Fei!"
Someone immediately voiced their approval.
"Two of our Black Wind Empire's Great Generals died in Heaven Beyond Heaven! This blood debt must also be settled with Su Fei!"
"The Great Elder of our sect also perished in Heaven Beyond Heaven!"
...
For a time, experts from various sects and factions successively spoke up, all denouncing Ye Yunfei.
Within Heaven Beyond Heaven, these major powers from the Central Divine Land had lost many formidable experts, suffering severe casualties. Unable to enter Heaven Beyond Heaven to seek revenge on the Demon Race, their rage found a target—they settled the account squarely on Ye Yunfei's head.
"Esteemed friends, the Ziwei Sect, which Su Fei hails from, belongs to the legacy of an Emperor—the Great Emperor of Ziwei. It had long degenerated into an insignificant minor sect, but rumor has it that it staged a dramatic comeback recently because they discovered treasures and legacies left behind by Ziwei Great Emperor himself."
Suddenly, someone announced loudly.
Treasures and legacies left by Ziwei Great Emperor!
Upon hearing this, everyone's spirits lifted. Treasures and legacies left by a Great Emperor were far too enticing!
"This settles it. Let us immediately form a large force and head to the Eastern Barrens to purge all forces and individuals related to Su Fei, of course including Ziwei Sect!"
A black-clad elder with an aura full of ferocity declared clearly.
"Excellent idea! Let's do exactly that!"
Experts from the other forces all voiced their agreement.
And so, shortly after, a force composed of men dispatched by the various major powers of the Central Divine Land set off, heading straight for the Eastern Barrens.
The entire Eastern Barrens would soon be plunged into utter chaos because of the arrival of this terrifying force from the Central Divine Land!
At the same time, within Heaven Beyond Heaven, inside the large formation.
Ye Yunfei was cultivating.
After swallowing the Great Dao Creation Pills, terrifyingly immense medicinal power surged endlessly through Ye Yunfei's body. His eight divine meridians were like eight great rivers, with spiritual power rolling and rushing through them like ceaseless tidal waves. Remember, these Great Dao Creation Pills had absorbed three-fifths of the lake's water. The sheer volume of energy they contained was simply beyond description.
Gradually, the aura emanating from Ye Yunfei's body continued to climb, growing ever more terrifying, ever more profound and unfathomable.
Meanwhile, tumultuous rumbles echoed continuously from within the bodies of his Nine Divine Beasts, as if gods and devils were beating mighty drums inside them. Vast numbers of profound runes intertwined, forming sections of ancient scripture that swirled around their bodies, radiant and glowing.
High in the sky above Ye Yunfei's head, the golden sphere representing the Sixth Sun was steadily expanding in volume.
Its diameter was already nearing nine thousand meters. Once it reached the full nine thousand meters, it would mark the successful and complete cultivation of the Sixth Sun of the Nine-Yang Scripture.
Situ Kong'er, the old man in blue, Hu Miao, and others were still by the lake's edge, deeply engrossed in their cultivation.
They were simultaneously refining and absorbing the lake water's energy while contemplating the truths within.
This was because the lake water not only contained vast amounts of energy but was also inscribed with various heavenly laws and rules. In fact, these heavenly laws were far more important than the energy itself!
As a result, everyone gained immense benefits. The aura on each person's body was slowly rising.
Moreover, breakthroughs occurred continuously, with some even breaking through several times consecutively.
The over two thousand slaves under Ye Yunfei's command all originated from either the Corpse World or Tianyou Tomb. They possessed decent innate talent to begin with. Ye Yunfei had always intended to nurture them, personally guiding them on usual occasions. Coupled with the fact they resided within the Phantom Tower, where they possessed abundant cultivation time, their strength had progressed tremendously.
Now, after refining and absorbing this lake water, every single slave had successfully broken through.
Among them, a batch had already advanced to the Creation Origin realm.
Time flowed slowly. At a certain moment...
"I can finally break through."
Ye Yunfei suddenly opened his eyes. His figure flashed as he rushed to a distance.
Rumble...
The dense tribulation thunderclouds high in the sky began to descend.
With a thought from Ye Yunfei, the Thunder Beast, one of the Nine Divine Beasts currently refining the Great Dao Creation Pills, suddenly leapt up and landed beside Ye Yunfei. It then began to open its maw, voraciously devouring the ceaselessly descending bolts of lightning and electric snakes.
"Big Brother Su's method of undergoing a lightning tribulation is truly special!" Situ Kong'er exclaimed with amazement upon seeing this.
"I have never witnessed anyone undergoing a lightning tribulation so effortlessly. Young Master Su's techniques are truly god-like!" the old man in blue also remarked with admiration.
"Early stage of Tribulation-Life realm."
After completing the tribulation, Ye Yunfei clenched his fists gently and murmured.
"Just relying on my spiritual power alone now, I can easily contend with practitioners at the Mental Star stage."
A confident smile touched Ye Yunfei's lips.
Boom...
Just at this moment, the golden sphere representing the Sixth Sun in the sky not far away trembled violently. It erupted with inexhaustible, brilliant radiance. The fearsome energy it released caused the space around it to warp and twist unceasingly.
The Sixth Sun had finally reached perfect completion!
A pleased smile appeared on Ye Yunfei's face.
Rumble...
With another thought from Ye Yunfei, the enormous golden sphere fiercely shot back into his dantian.
Roar! Roar!
Suddenly, all Nine Divine Beasts roared in unison.
The nine divine beasts stood tall within the high sky, their bodies enveloped within an aura of primordial chaos. Mighty currents of fearsome energy howled around them like primal creatures striding forth from ancient times.
Rumble...
The Nine Palaces Totem Wheel rotated slowly, emanating an indestructible, earth-shattering, eternal and everlasting aura.
Situ Kong'er and the others were dumbstruck as they gazed at this dazzling, seemingly impervious, magnificent wheel. Their hearts were shaken to the extreme.
Roar! Roar!
Suddenly, the Nine Divine Beasts rushed back into the Nine Palaces Totem Wheel, each returning to its respective palace cell within the wheel. The rotation speed of the colossal wheel then began to accelerate rapidly, shaking the very heavens and earth around them, causing violent tremors as if everything were being sifted vigorously.
Ye Yunfei understood; the Nine Divine Beasts had finally succeeded in refining and absorbing the Great Dao Creation Pills and had each made a breakthrough!
Early stage Tribulation-Life realm. Sixth Sun completed. The Nine Palaces Totem Wheel, now having undergone a breakthrough!
Ye Yunfei knew his strength had just experienced a qualitative leap!
At this moment, Ye Yunfei only felt boundless, inexhaustible energy surging and roaring within him. Strength brimmed overwhelmingly within his form.
