Ye Yunfei paid no heed to the angry roars of the surrounding beings. Instead, he accelerated his speed, continuously harvesting the Human Immortal Fruits.
"Kid, hand over all the Human Immortal Fruits on you!"
Suddenly, a black-robed man rushed close to Ye Yunfei, brandishing a curved saber and slashing at him.
Suspended above this black-robed man's head was a black three-story pagoda. It was precisely this pagoda that had helped him break free from the restraints of the Formations, allowing him to harvest the Human Immortal Fruits freely. He had already gathered five or six fruits. Seeing Ye Yunfei pick so many, his eyes burned with envy. Thus, he stealthily approached Ye Yunfei and launched a surprise attack.
This black-robed man was an Intermediate Heavenly Emperor!
Moreover, the cultivation technique he practiced was quite bizarre; his movements were silent, his speed astonishingly fast, and his aura highly restrained. If not for Ye Yunfei's powerful Soul Power and the Mental Force energy he cultivated, detecting this suddenly charging black-robed man would have been quite difficult.
"Scram!"
Ye Yunfei chopped out with his palm, a sword light shooting out and directly bisecting the black-robed man's body.
"How is this possible!"
The black-robed man re-formed his body, both shocked and furious. They were both Intermediate Heavenly Emperors, yet he had been severed by a single sword stroke.
This indicated the other party's combat prowess far surpassed his!
"Kid, who exactly are you? You're not from our Main World, so why do you possess such formidable fighting strength?" the black-robed man asked with a wary and somewhat resentful gaze, his voice low.
"Stay away from me if you don't want to die." Ye Yunfei replied without turning his head, continuing to harvest the Human Immortal Fruits.
The reason Ye Yunfei didn't kill this black-robed man was because he didn't wish to incur too many grievances with forces from the Main World.
He wasn't arrogant enough to think he could challenge the entire Main World alone.
Those beings from the Main World he had killed previously were all out of necessity.
"Young Master Ye, I see our Celestial Gold Race members! They are over there!"
Suddenly, the Third Elder pointed at a location ahead and exclaimed with joy.
Ye Yunfei's gaze swept over, and indeed, he saw a group of people standing ahead, wandering about like headless flies.
They were all members of the Celestial Gold Race!
All four other elders of the Celestial Gold Race were there!
Currently, these Celestial Gold Race members were utterly exhausted!
"The Great Elder and Second Elder have already reached the Heavenly Emperor realm!"
Ye Yunfei noticed that both the Great Elder and Second Elder of the Celestial Gold Race were now Primary Level Heavenly Emperors.
It was precisely because the Great Elder and Second Elder were protecting the other members that they had managed to hold out till now. Otherwise, they would have long since been killed by the endless stream of Illusion Formations within this dense forest.
"Everyone, stay close to the two of us! Don't panic, and don't wander aimlessly! Let's all move together in one direction and see if we can get out!"
They saw the Celestial Gold Race's Great Elder shouting.
In truth, they had already tried this method many times, with no effect. Yet, apart from this, the Great Elder and Second Elder couldn't think of any other viable method.
Because the Illusion Formations within this forest were simply too numerous and too terrifying. They had wandered for several full days without being able to leave.
The Great Elder and Second Elder understood in their hearts that if they continued to drag on like this, their entire batch of Celestial Gold Race members would eventually perish here!
The surrounding Illusion Formations constantly launched all kinds of attacks.
The Great Elder and Second Elder had only recently broken through to the Heavenly Emperor realm. To die here like this filled them with intense unwillingness.
Yet they lacked the ability to escape.
"When we first entered this forest and triggered these Illusion Formations, I already used our Celestial Gold Race's secret method to send a message to the Third Elder, informing him of our situation. The Third Elder should already know we're trapped by Formations within this forest. Our only hope now is the Third Elder." the Second Elder sent a Sound Transmission to the Great Elder.
"The Third Elder's Formation skills are even poorer than mine. Even if he received your message and came here, he wouldn't be able to help us. Don't forget, among the five elders of our race, my Formation skill is the highest." the Great Elder shook his head and replied via Sound Transmission.
"No! Although the Third Elder's Formation skill can't compare to yours, he has always been resourceful and thorough in his considerations. After receiving my message, he definitely wouldn't recklessly rush here to help break the formations, because he knows his skills are inferior to yours. He'll think of other methods." the Second Elder said.
"Other methods? What other methods could he possibly think of?" the Great Elder asked.
"You've forgotten, within our Celestial Gold Race headquarters, there is a large number of sophisticated Formations, and those Formations weren't laid by any of us five elders. Great Elder, although your Formation skill is good, there is someone far more skilled than you." the Second Elder said.
"You mean Young Master Ye! I nearly forgot! The Third Elder would most likely go and ask Young Master Ye for help! If Young Master Ye is willing to come aid us, he will definitely be able to break these Illusion Formations within this forest!" the Great Elder's spirits lifted, and he spoke aloud.
"Everyone, stay calm, don't panic. I believe we will have a chance to leave here!" the Great Elder's confidence grew significantly as he spoke loudly to the other clan members.
"Not just a chance. We are certain to leave here."
The moment the Great Elder finished speaking, a voice rang out not far away. Then these Celestial Gold Race members saw two figures walking towards them.
These two were precisely Ye Yunfei and the Third Elder.
"Eh? What's happening? I seem to see the Third Elder and Young Master Ye walking towards us?Is this an Illusion Formation or real?"
The Celestial Gold Race members were all extremely startled.
"Excellent! We are finally saved!"
The Great Elder and Second Elder, however, recognized at a glance that the Third Elder and Ye Yunfei before them were real. They couldn't help but grow extremely emotional.
"Haha... Everyone, Young Master Ye has come to rescue you!"
Seeing his clansmen, the Third Elder's heart completely relaxed. He quickened his pace and rushed over, laughing heartily.
"It's the Third Elder and Young Master Ye!It's real, not an Illusion Formation! We are finally saved!"
Hearing the Third Elder's loud laughter, those Celestial Gold Race members finally realized the Third Elder and Ye Yunfei had indeed arrived. Each one of them grew extremely excited.
After all, for several days, these Celestial Gold Race members had been wandering in circles in this forest, each one utterly exhausted. Suddenly seeing the Third Elder and Ye Yunfei, they knew they were safe. Their hearts completely relaxed, and some Celestial Gold Race members immediately sat down on the ground to rest.
"Everyone, please enter my Space Treasure to rest. I will take you out of here." Ye Yunfei spoke up.
"Alright, let's enter Young Master Ye's Space Treasure to rest!" The Great Elder nodded.
Following that, all the Celestial Gold Race members, including the Third Elder, entered the Phantom Tower.
Thus, Ye Yunfei's own actions became much more relaxed, moving alone!
