"This chaotic space-time environment contains a vast amount of time and spatial energy. It shouldn't be wasted," Ye Yunfei thought to himself, sensing the disordered flows around him.
Generally, when space-time collapses, the spatial and time energy contained within it is released. Therefore, such environments are rich with spatial and time energy that can be absorbed. Many powerful cultivators actively seek out these chaotic space-time pockets to train within them.
Huff…
With a thought from Ye Yunfei, the Roc unleashed a powerful suction force, beginning to devour the spatial energy within the turbulent surroundings.
Thus, Ye Yunfei continuously advanced, using the Roc to absorb spatial energy while simultaneously sensing his direction.
After an immeasurable amount of time passed…
"Everyone, I have located the spatial node connecting the Heaven Beyond Heaven to the Primordial Continent—the original position of the Heaven Beyond Heaven's entrance and exit. We can leave now," Ye Yunfei suddenly announced with a smile.
Upon hearing this, everyone's spirits lifted.
"Su Fei, how exactly did you pinpoint the original location and direction of this Space-Time Channel amidst such chaotic space-time flows?" The Palace Master, astonished, couldn't help but ask.
"Although this Space-Time Channel has collapsed, remnants of its original structure still faintly remain. I simply traced those residual traces to calculate its former position and direction," Ye Yunfei explained.
"I… I cannot comprehend it. It truly is a world for the younger generation. Age cannot be defied," the Palace Master murmured dazedly for a moment before sighing.
Of course, he had no idea that this young man, who so amazed him, was once a Heavenly Emperor—his level far surpassing the Palace Master's!
"Alright, everyone, we can leave now," Ye Yunfei declared.
Boom!
The Roc violently flapped its wings, stirring up raging torrents of energy as it carried the group hurtling forward through space.
Everyone felt terrifying currents of spatial energy surge towards them.
Boom!
A moment later, the Roc shot out of the chaotic space-time, returning them to the outer world.
Stabilizing their gazes, they found themselves on the chaotic plateau outside the Heaven Beyond Heaven. Behind them stood that strange mountain with its illusory, translucent upper half.
"We've come out of the Heaven Beyond Heaven!" Rou'er exclaimed joyfully.
"Look! Someone seems to have come out of the Heaven Beyond Heaven!" someone shouted from afar.
Then, one group after another emerged, appearing from all directions, instantly surrounding Ye Yunfei and his companions.
"Palace Master! Young Lady! Rou'er! You're finally out! This is wonderful!" A group of people rushed forward to the Palace Master, their faces alight with relief.
They were the forces of the Longevity Palace! They had been anxiously waiting outside ever since the Palace Master entered.
Now, finally, their Palace Master had returned!
"Su Fei! Su Fei is out too! Surround him! He must not be allowed to escape!" At that moment, forces from other major factions noticed Ye Yunfei and closed in, blocking all paths of retreat.
Ye Yunfei offered a faint smile, his icy gaze sweeping over the surrounding forces. Knowing that these factions had already dispatched groups to the Eastern Barrens, Ye Yunfei certainly felt no need to be polite.
"Haha, the heavens favor our Longevity Palace! Palace Master, you have returned safely!" A Longevity Palace elder said excitedly as their forces gathered around the Palace Master.
The Palace Master was one of the top experts in the Central Divine Land, a core combatant for the Longevity Palace. If anything happened to him, it would be a tremendous loss!
"No. It is not the heavens that aided our Longevity Palace. It was Su Fei's assistance. Without Su Fei's help, I doubt I could have escaped the Heaven Beyond Heaven," the Palace Master shook his head and replied.
"Su Fei's assistance?" The Longevity Palace members were puzzled.
"That's right. Everyone, Su Fei has done our Longevity Palace a great favor. From this moment on, the Longevity Palace stands by Su Fei's side," the Palace Master declared.
"Palace Master… please reconsider carefully. Currently, all major factions in the Central Divine Land view Su Fei as an enemy," an elder transmitted his voice privately.
"Our Longevity Palace distinguishes kindness from enmity clearly. We do not side with someone just because they are stronger. Moreover, with the strength of our Longevity Palace, even if all forces in the Central Divine Land were hostile to Su Fei, we would have no fear," the Palace Master answered, his tone sharp.
"Yes, Palace Master," the elder quickly replied, sensing his leader's displeasure.
"Su Fei! So you finally dared to show yourself? A human who has betrayed your race to ally with the Demon Race deserves execution by all! You are now an enemy to our entire Central Divine Land, even the entire Primordial Continent! Kneel immediately! Confess your crimes and submit to our judgment! Otherwise, you will die without a grave!" A black-robed elder stepped forward from the crowd, pointing at Ye Yunfei and berating him fiercely.
This elder exuded dense corpse energy, clearly a master from the Corpse World, at the early Mind Star Realm.
"You? Daring to command me to kneel?" Ye Yunfei's gaze instantly snapped towards the black-robed elder.
"Ahh!" The black-robed elder suddenly screamed, his body thrown backward, blood trickling from his nose and mouth.
Currently at the early Tribulation Birth Realm, Ye Yunfei's soul power had also significantly increased with his advancement. The power of his Heavenly Demon Soul Sword and Puppet Soul Thread secret arts was far beyond what this elder could withstand.
"That formidable!" Seeing this, the onlookers felt a chill in their hearts. The ability to injure a Mind Star Realm expert using only soul martial techniques was truly frightening.
"Everyone, please hear me. Su Fei did not ally with the Demon Race. On the contrary, he slew numerous Demon Venerables and many demons. Furthermore, Su Fei destroyed a Teleportation Altar connecting the Heaven Beyond Heaven to the Demon Realm. This makes it difficult for the Demon Race to enter the Heaven Beyond Heaven again. Su Fei has eliminated a great hidden threat to our Primordial Continent. One could say, Su Fei is a hero to our Primordial Continent," the Palace Master took a step forward and proclaimed clearly.
Everyone was stunned by his words.
"Palace Master Pan, you're saying there was a Teleportation Altar linking the Heaven Beyond Heaven to the Demon Realm within it… and Su Fei destroyed it? Are there still any demons in the Heaven Beyond Heaven now?" an old man inquired.
"Indeed. The demon forces within the Heaven Beyond Heaven were sent there via teleportation from the Demon Realm. Fortunately, Su Fei located and destroyed that altar. Otherwise, once the Demon Race took an interest in our Primordial Continent and sent forces to invade, imagine the disaster we would face. Our Primordial Continent would be no match for the Demon Race. But of course, Su Fei has eradicated that threat," the Palace Master confirmed with a nod.
The forces of the surrounding factions grew secretly alarmed. If there truly was a Teleportation Altar linking to the Demon Realm within the Heaven Beyond Heaven, it would indeed pose a massive threat to all life on the Primordial Continent.
"Hmph! Palace Master Pan, I believe you have been deceived by that little thief Su Fei. Did you personally witness him killing Demon Venerables and demons? Did you personally witness him destroying this so-called Teleportation Altar?" a dark-faced, sinister black-robed elder suddenly sneered.
This elder was also a master from the Corpse World, a mid Mind Star Realm cultivator.
"I did not see it personally. But Jun'er and Rou'er both witnessed it with their own eyes," the Palace Master answered truthfully.
"Seeing is believing! That little thief Su Fei is cunning beyond measure. The Young Lady must have been deceived. We all personally saw that little thief associating intimately with those demons within the Heaven Beyond Heaven. There can be no mistake about that. Everyone, I propose we capture the thief Su Fei first, then interrogate him at our leisure!" the black-robed elder retorted coldly.
