Whoosh!
Ye Yunfei executed the Hidden Shadow Secret Art, instantly vanishing from sight.
The Hidden Shadow Secret Art did not involve slipping into the depths of space; Ye Yunfei's physical body remained within this spatial region. However, his body's surface was now cloaked by profound principles and energy, making it impossible to detect both his flesh and Soul Power—utterly invisible and formless.
It was said that the Tianying Clan were descendants of a certain Deity from ancient times. Numerous racial inheritances flowed within their bloodline, and the Hidden Shadow Secret Art was one of their most mysterious secret inheritances!
Having obtained the bloodline essence of the Tianying Clan, Ye Yunfei was now essentially one of their kind, able to unleash the core power of the Hidden Shadow Secret Art, and the effect was markedly potent.
This movement technique now allowed Ye Yunfei to face the pursuit of Heavenly Boundary Realm experts with relative ease.
Boom! Boom!
Dozens of figures exuding sharp auras shot through the sky, crushing the air as they descended upon the ground.
They were the forces of the Heavenly God Palace!
"Where is he? The boy's aura was clearly here just a moment ago, yet now it suddenly vanished. Could he have escaped?"
The members of the Heavenly God Palace landed in this mountainous region and immediately fanned out, searching for Ye Yunfei. They found no trace of him, not even a detectable aura.
"No... I think he's still here, hiding somewhere!"
At this moment, the elder leading them seemed to faintly grasp something—a hint of Ye Yunfei's aura.
This elder was a peak Heavenly Boundary Realm master, his perception astonishingly keen.
"Senior, let's cooperate. We'll eliminate those at the World Fusion Realm and below first, then deal with the few Heavenly Boundary Realm ones."
Ye Yunfei transmitted this message to Xuanlong Daozhang, planning their strategy.
Ye Yunfei informed Xuanlong Daozhang of the locations and powers of the Earth Formations he had laid. This way, when the battle commenced, Xuanlong Daozhang would be aware and could coordinate his attacks with the formations, achieving twice the result with half the effort.
"Good," Xuanlong Daozhang nodded, rubbing his hands together eagerly, itching for a fight.
"Everyone, search carefully! I can sense it; that boy seems to be right here!" the leading elder of the Heavenly God Palace shouted.
The Heavenly God Palace forces split into several squads, preparing to widen their search radius.
According to the spatial coordinates provided by the Heavenly God Palace's old wizard, Ye Yunfei should be somewhere within this very mountain range.
Boom...!
Suddenly, Ye Yunfei stomped his foot, activating all of the Earth Formations. One deadly ground and perilous zone after another erupted. A mighty surge of earth energy rose like a vast, yellow ocean. Earth Dragons roared and rushed from beneath the ground, forming killing formations that charged towards the Heavenly God Palace forces, intent on grinding them to dust.
This abrupt change sent the entire area into chaos instantly. Boundless energy and brilliant light intertwined, shaking heaven and earth.
"Be careful! It must be that brat playing tricks! Prepare to meet the enemy!" the leading elder's face changed as he yelled.
Whoosh!
Ye Yunfei appeared behind one squad of Heavenly God Palace members. His left hand extended, conjuring a long, white blade which he swung forward slowly.
Time Blade!
With his right hand, he clenched a fist and punched out. The fist erupted with dazzling radiance, tugging at the energy and laws of the surrounding world like tidal waves gathering and converging, empowering the strike.
Heaven-Borrowing Nine Burials Fist!
Puff! Puff...!
Wherever the Time Blade and the Heaven-Borrowing Nine Burials Fist reached, the bodies of the Heavenly God Palace members ahead exploded one by one, like a string of bloody fireworks igniting, transforming into showers of blood and light. Their souls and bodies were utterly eradicated.
Ye Yunfei's current spiritual energy cultivation was at the late-stage World-Forging Realm, and his Nine-Yang Scripture had also reached the pinnacle of the Seventh Yang. His true spiritual energy strength already matched a peak World Fusion Realm expert!
Furthermore, the Heaven-Borrowing Nine Burials Fist was a high-level fist technique specifically for fighting above one's level. Dealing with cultivators at the World Fusion Realm and below was overkill—akin to using a butcher's knife to slaughter a chicken—yet it could even hold its own against Heavenly Boundary Realm opponents.
Combined with the Time Blade, its lethality became truly terrifying.
Without any suspense, this entire squad of Heavenly God Palace members was instantly annihilated by Ye Yunfei's blade and fist. Not a single one survived, all evaporated into bloody mist.
Whoosh!
Ye Yunfei appeared behind another Heavenly God Palace squad. Another fist, another blade.
Puff! Puff...!
One Heavenly God Palace member after another directly exploded, utterly destroyed.
While Ye Yunfei was making his move, Xuanlong Daozhang also joined the fray.
His speed reached an extreme. With each step he took, energy from the formations bloomed beneath his feet, transforming into yellow lotuses that supported his steps, making his movements elusive and unpredictable.
These yellow lotuses were Earth Formations Ye Yunfei had arranged specifically to aid Xuanlong Daozhang's movement, increase his speed, and conceal his form.
Aah! Aah…!
Wherever Xuanlong Daozhang went, screams of agony echoed. Group after group of Heavenly God Palace forces fell continuously.
Now a late-stage Heavenly Boundary Realm master, dealing with Heavenly God Palace members at the World Fusion Realm and below was naturally very simple for him.
Some of the Heavenly God Palace forces, seeing the dire situation, tried to turn and flee. However, perilous zones and deadly ground kept erupting, blocking their path, trapping them in place, leaving them with no choice but to await their deaths.
Among this batch of Heavenly God Palace forces, there were a total of six Heavenly Boundary Realm experts: the leader was a peak Heavenly Boundary Realm master, one was late-stage Heavenly Boundary Realm, two were mid-stage, and two were early-stage.
Seeing their comrades being slaughtered continuously, these six experts were both shocked and furious. They unleashed their full power, trying to charge over and stop Ye Yunfei and Xuanlong Daozhang.
But Ye Yunfei and Xuanlong Daozhang's speed of execution was far too fast—a single strike could wipe out a large group. Moreover, the overlapping Earth Formations created barriers that gave these Heavenly Boundary Realm experts no chance to interfere in time.
Within just four or five breaths, aside from the six Heavenly Boundary Realm experts, every other member of the Heavenly God Palace contingent had been slain.
The Blood Clan clone appeared on the battlefield and began to devour the source essence blood.
Generally speaking, even if a living being's body is shattered, its source essence blood lingers in space for a brief period before dissipating into nothingness.
"You... you killed so many of our Heavenly God Palace members!"
The six Heavenly Boundary Realm experts of the Heavenly God Palace stared at the scattered limbs and flesh covering the ground, their auras trembling with rage.
The Heavenly God Palace was one of the most powerful superpowers in the Xianling Realm. Its members enjoyed immense prestige; not only within the Xianling Realm, but even when traveling to other worlds, few dared to provoke them.
Now, so many of them had been killed!
And the perpetrators weren't some major force or formidable figures—just a junior and a single Heavenly Boundary Realm cultivator.
Such a combination was, for a superpower like the Heavenly God Palace, something they would normally utterly disdain!
"Damn it! Attack! Kill them!" the leading elder gnashed his teeth and snarled.
"Senior, I'll use the Earth Formations to trap that peak Heavenly Boundary Realm old fellow. Then we'll join forces to deal with the other five. Start with the weakest two—we'll kill as many as we can!"
Ye Yunfei relayed his plan to Xuanlong Daozhang.
"Good! Little Brother, you lead. I'll follow!"
Having just relished the thrill of slaughter, Xuanlong Daozhang was in a state of boiling blood and excitement. Hearing Ye Yunfei's words, he nodded immediately, ready to fight once more.
