"What are you doing here?"
Soon, someone rushed out of the small house. Upon seeing Ye Yunfei and several slaves standing outside, he immediately barked a harsh reprimand.
"Get lost!"
Ye Yunfei strode forward, charging into the small house as vast waves of energy pressure erupted from his body, directly blasting away those who had rushed out.
By this time, Ye Yunfei had already thoroughly studied the dozen or so Sword Formations surrounding the small house. He deliberately charged straight toward them.
Clang! Clang!...
A dozen Sword Formations simultaneously erupted with endless sword radiance. Hundreds of millions of dazzling, blinding sword beams shot toward the sky, cutting that patch of heaven and earth to pieces, creating countless pitch-black spatial fissures.
However, these sword beams were of no use to Ye Yunfei. With every step, he precisely stepped onto the crucial nodal points of those formations, cleverly evading all the sword beam attacks, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed into the small house.
"How is this possible?"
Those Sword Emperor Pavilion members inside and outside the small house watched in stupefaction as Ye Yunfei made an effortless advance directly inside.
They all knew the power of each Sword Formation surrounding this house was terrifyingly formidable. Even a Half-Emperor expert would have to avoid their full force!
"Kid, who are you! This is the important Western Heaven Prison site. Unauthorized outsiders are forbidden from trespassing…"
Inside the small house, seven Heavenly Boundary Realm experts glared furiously at Ye Yunfei. One of them roared.
Boom...
The response he received was Ye Yunfei's ever-enlarging golden fist, akin to a golden mountain peak carrying a terrifying amount of energy as it crushed toward him.
"Kid, you're looking for death!"
That Heavenly Boundary Realm expert was enraged, immediately bringing his sword up to parry. The sword tip collided with the golden fist, producing a clear, crisp clang of metal.
Crack!
The long sword directly shattered under the impact. Ye Yunfei's golden fist continued its forward momentum.
Clutching the broken sword with only half its blade remaining, that Heavenly Boundary Realm expert paled in fright and desperately retreated.
"Be careful! It's Ye Yunfei!"
Another Heavenly Boundary Realm expert suddenly recognized Ye Yunfei and bellowed.
Upon recognizing Ye Yunfei, the seven Heavenly Boundary Realm experts inside the small house were greatly alarmed. They all thrust out their swords simultaneously.
Clang! Clang!...
One after another, swords clashed with Ye Yunfei's fists. And then, every single sword broke.
"How is this possible? How can this kid's fist be this hard!?"
All seven Heavenly Boundary Realm experts were horrified.
They were all sword cultivators. Their swords were their primary weapons and means for combat. Without their swords, their combat prowess plummeted.
However, these seven Heavenly Boundary Realm experts carried more than one sword. They immediately pulled out other swords, preparing to surround and attack Ye Yunfei.
Boom! Boom!...
At the same time, outside the small house, violent figures tore through the air toward them, shaking the entire world violently as if it were about to shatter and collapse.
Half-Emperor experts were here!
"The Pavilion Master and the Elders have arrived!"
One Heavenly Boundary Realm expert inside the small house exclaimed excitedly.
"Let's join forces and capture Ye Yunfei, then hand him over to the Pavilion Master. That would be a great achievement!" another Heavenly Boundary Realm expert said.
However, before the seven Heavenly Boundary Realm experts could make a move...
"Time Reversal Art!"
Ye Yunfei suddenly uttered softly.
A powerful temporal energy instantly enveloped the interior space of the small house, while profound time principles sealed the flow of space and time.
The seven Heavenly Boundary Realm experts, and all the other Sword Emperor Pavilion members, all stood frozen in place, unable to move. Then their movements began reversing, creating an extremely bizarre scene.
With a sweep of his sleeve, Ye Yunfei scooped up all the Sword Emperor Pavilion personnel inside the small house. He sealed them all and transmitted them into the Phantom Tower.
Next, Ye Yunfei charged toward a tunnel entrance in a corner of the small house and instantly plunged into the underground passage.
"Ye Yunfei, I know you're in there! Come out immediately!"
Suddenly, an angry roar erupted from outside, shaking the small house violently. In the next moment, with a loud *bang*, the entire small house exploded into a sky full of shattered bricks and tiles.
Scores of sharp, menacing figures appeared crossing the sky, each radiating overwhelming auras.
The Sword Emperor Pavilion's top brass had arrived!
"He entered the Western Heaven Prison! We're going in!"
The Pavilion Master of the Sword Emperor Pavilion descended in front of the exploded house, glanced at the tunnel entrance, and his expression drastically changed.
Swoosh! Swoosh!...
One Sword Emperor Pavilion expert after another rushed into the tunnel entrance, charging down into the underground depths.
By now, Ye Yunfei had already descended a thousand meters underground, rushing into a massive subterranean palace.
This underground palace was densely packed with sophisticated formations. There was essentially a small formation every three steps and a major one every five. Beings without sufficient strength would find it absolutely impossible to move an inch here.
Simultaneously, throughout the palace were large iron cages forged from millennium black iron, each containing a large number of imprisoned beings.
Each large cage was densely engraved with various intricate inscriptions, radiating an awe-inspiring glow.
"Who are the Mao Clan people? I am here to save you!"
Ye Yunfei let out a great roar that echoed throughout the vast underground palace, sparking echoes that propagated back and forth.
"To save us? Look, it's the Young Master! The Young Master has come to save us!"
Inside one of the large iron cages within the palace, over a hundred young men and women were imprisoned. Upon hearing Ye Yunfei's words, their gazes instantly shot toward him, and soon they recognized him.
Previously, Ye Yunfei had stayed at both the Mao Clan headquarters and their secret base for a time. These young Mao Clan members had seen him then, so they instantly recognized him now.
"Young Master, we are here!"
Those Mao Clan youths urgently cried out in pleasant surprise.
"Kid, you're courting death!"
"Go, capture this kid!"
...
This underground palace also contained a large contingent of Sword Emperor Pavilion personnel on guard duty. Seeing Ye Yunfei break in, they all roared with fury and charged forward.
Swoosh!
The Blood Clan Clone appeared, executing its blood control divine ability, a simple beckoning motion.
Gurgle...
Those Sword Emperor Pavilion personnel charging forward were horrified to discover the blood vessels within their bodies rapidly swelling, their blood beginning to boil violently as if brought to a boil, while their entire bodies grew limp and their limbs weak.
Swoosh!
Ye Yunfei appeared instantly next to the large iron cage imprisoning the Mao Clan people. With a flick of his finger, his Five Elemental Spiritual Swords shot out, directly shattering all the iron bars of the large cage.
These five spiritual swords of Ye Yunfei had all been reforged and refined, each now integrated with a Half-Emperor level long sword. Shredding these large cages was far too easy!
"Save me! Benefactor, please, I beg you, save me too!"
"Great Benefactor! I kowtow to you, take me out of here too! If I stay here, those Sword Emperor Pavilion brutes will definitely kill me!"
"Benefactor, in your great mercy, please save us too while you're at it!"
...
By this point, the prisoners within the other large cages imprisoned in the underground palace all began kowtowing toward Ye Yunfei, some beings continuously knocking their heads on the ground.
