In the next moment.
Boom! Rumble!
A massive fist imprint abruptly materialized right in front of him, carrying terrifying force as it blasted toward him.
Bang!
Panicked, this Half-Emperor swung his battle halberd to clash with the incoming fist imprint.
Pfft!
The terrifying fist force instantly sent the Half-Emperor flying, exploding half of his body and leaving him drenched in blood.
At this moment, Ye Yunfei raised his hand and made a grasping motion in the air. The laws of space around him rapidly converged, taking the form of a brilliant, gleaming golden spear.
The Law Spear!
Shhh!
Ye Yunfei violently hurled the spear. It pierced through space, arriving before the Half-Emperor in an instant.
Still gripping his longsword, the Half-Emperor desperately lashed out, clashing with the spear and directly slicing it in two.
Yet, in the very next instant, the Half-Emperor's face paled with horror because the spear he had just shattered instantly regenerated, moving even faster as it impaled his brow.
"What kind of martial technique is this?!"
With his Soul Body shredded by the spear, the Half-Emperor uttered these words of unwillingness, his head lolling to the side as he perished.
How was this possible?
Now, the remaining Half-Emperors stared at Ye Yunfei with looks of utter disbelief, wondering if their eyes were deceiving them.
Before embarking on this mission to hunt down Ye Yunfei, these Half-Emperor experts had investigated him, knowing that he had broken through to the Heavenly Boundary Realm while on Feixian Continent and that his combat power exceeded his cultivation level. Thus, they believed Ye Yunfei's fighting strength might barely approach the Initial Half-Emperor level.
But now they realized, Ye Yunfei's combat power wasn't barely approaching the Initial Half-Emperor level — he could slaughter Initial Half-Emperors, even slay Intermediate Half-Emperors, in the blink of an eye!
This was simply an impossible feat!
"A Half-Emperor!
Ye Yunfei, you actually broke through to the Initial Half-Emperor realm!
Your cultivation speed is this ridiculously fast!"
One of the Half-Emperor experts suddenly shouted.
Only now did the others notice the energy radiating from Ye Yunfei, which unmistakably placed him at the Initial Half-Emperor level!
"Everyone, Ye Yunfei's combat power has exceeded our expectations. We underestimated him previously. You must all sharpen your focus..."
An Intermediate Half-Emperor spoke solemnly.
Ye Yunfei extended both hands, bringing them together gently. Boundless spiritual power surged from his body, forming a massive golden sphere between his palms, which then rapidly condensed into a small, grain-like point of golden light.
Ye Yunfei poured his spiritual energy ceaselessly into this tiny golden speck.
Hum!
In the next moment, the golden speck trembled slightly and appeared before the Intermediate Half-Emperor who had spoken, shooting straight for his chest.
"What kind of art is this?!"
The Half-Emperor was startled, hastily retreating while simultaneously slapping out with his palm, trying to repel the golden speck.
BOOM! RUMBLE!
The golden speck suddenly exploded violently. All the spiritual energy stored within it was released in an instant, producing a terrifying blast. It instantly caused the surrounding expanse of the Chaotic Void to collapse and disintegrate, giving way to a dark, pitch-black spatial rift.
This method of exploding and releasing energy instantaneously doubled its destructive power!
Bam!
With a wretched scream, the Intermediate Half-Emperor had a large portion of his body blown to pieces. All that remained was a small half as he retreated rapidly, putting distance between himself and Ye Yunfei, and stared back with terror-filled eyes.
Ye Yunfei stretched out his hand, making another grasping motion in the air, and a new Law Spear materialized. He took aim at the Intermediate Half-Emperor, now a broken wreck, and fiercely hurled it.
"Everyone, save me!"
Already scared out of his wits, feeling as though both his Soul Body and fleshly body were locked on, the Intermediate Half-Emperor immediately turned to flee, shouting for help.
This was the overbearing nature of the Law Spear. It instantly and dominantly locked onto the enemy's physical and Soul Body. Once thrown, it would not relent until the enemy was slain!
With a shh sound.
The Law Spear pierced space and instantly caught up, striking at the back of the Intermediate Half-Emperor's skull.
Another characteristic of the Law Spear was its terrifying speed. Regardless of distance, it could instantly penetrate the void and appear before the enemy.
This was because the Law Spear itself was formed by harnessing the laws present in the surrounding space; traversing space required almost no time.
Bang! Bang!
In desperation, the Intermediate Half-Emperor activated four or five Half-Emperor level treasures in a row, placing them behind him as shields.
But it was useless.
With another shh sound, the Law Spear effortlessly pierced through all obstacles and embedded itself in the Half-Emperor's skull.
Another Half-Emperor was slain!
"Not bad, kid. You've already attained the power to easily slay an Intermediate Half-Emperor!"
"I wonder how you'd fare against an Advanced Half-Emperor."
Hun Lao watched as Ye Yunfei slew enemy after enemy, peerless in courage, and he too felt deeply astonished by Ye Yunfei's combat strength.
After all, Ye Yunfei had only just broken through to the Initial Half-Emperor realm. To possess such terrifying fighting power was exceedingly rare.
"It's simple. Let's find an Advanced Half-Emperor to test it out and know for sure."
Ye Yunfei chuckled.
He took a great stride, charging toward another Half-Emperor.
This Half-Emperor was an Advanced Half-Emperor!
"Everyone! This kid's combat power is alarmingly strange!
If we fight one-on-one, I fear none of us is his match!
We absolutely must join forces; only then do we have a chance of dealing with him!"
Seeing Ye Yunfei charging straight at him, the Advanced Half-Emperor's face involuntarily shifted. He immediately shouted out.
"He's right! Only by uniting might we stand a chance against him!"
Upon hearing this, the other Half-Emperor experts nodded in agreement.
"Let's move together, then!"
All the Half-Emperors unfolded their movement techniques simultaneously, charging at Ye Yunfei as one.
"Heh heh...
So you plan to rely on superior numbers, do you?
Very well. Then let me give you a taste of what it feels like when one side holds the numerical advantage."
With his increase in strength, Ye Yunfei's movement speed had become unimaginably faster than before. In a flash, he appeared before the Advanced Half-Emperor and spoke with a cold sneer.
The next moment.
Roar!
All nine Divine Beasts erupted from behind him, pouncing towards the Advanced Half-Emperor together.
The Blood Clan Clone also appeared, brandishing a blood-colored long blade as it charged at the Advanced Half-Emperor.
Boom! Rumble!
The Netherworld Yin Blade surged forth as well. The tall figure of the Underworld King materialized, grasped the dark long blade, and joined the attack.
All nine Divine Beasts, the Blood Clan Clone, and the Netherworld Yin Blade could unleash power at the Half-Emperor level.
This was effectively eleven Half-Emperors besieging a single Advanced Half-Emperor!
And, of course, with Ye Yunfei added, the attacking side's combat power amounted to twelve Half-Emperor experts!
Boom! Bang!
Ye Yunfei threw punches with both fists simultaneously — the Seamless Fist from his left hand and the True Demon Slaying God Fist from his right. Thick, dazzling streams of lightning bolts and electric serpents endlessly erupted from both fists, turning the entire surrounding area into a terrifying world of thunder and lightning.
Right now, Ye Yunfei's fighting style was completely one of brute-force collision. There was not a hint of evasion in any of his moves. Every strike and technique was dominated by sheer power.
"Ye Yunfei, do you think I fear you?!"
Under such a terrifying onslaught, the Advanced Half-Emperor was instantly thrown into utter disarray and roared in fury.
A silver shield appeared before him, thrusting forward to block Ye Yunfei.
Meanwhile, he gripped two curved blades, one in each hand, slashing out to create dense thickets of blade light!
It turned out this Advanced Half-Emperor was a Blade Cultivator!
