"Whatever happens, we must protect these five juniors and get them out of here. They represent the future of our Light Faction!"
Han Qianzi sent a sound transmission to the other War Remnant Souls.
At this moment, several dozen Light Faction War Remnant Souls were already following Ye Yunfei.
"Agreed!
Even if we must risk our very souls, we will ensure the safety of these five juniors, especially Ye Yunfei. If he can grow to his full potential, he will undoubtedly become a pillar of strength for our Light Faction. It would be a great pity for him to fall here."
"We've all died once already; there's nothing left to fear!"
...
The other Light Faction War Remnant Souls nodded in agreement one by one.
"Kill!"
In the blink of an eye, a large group of Dark Faction War Remnant Souls rushed forward to attack.
Ye Yunfei and his four companions, along with all the Light Faction War Remnant Souls, moved as one, clashing and fighting against the Dark Faction Remnant Souls.
Every single one of these Light Faction War Remnant Souls following Ye Yunfei was a powerful expert. Even though they existed only as remnant souls, their combat prowess was extremely strong. Within moments, they had slaughtered a large number of Dark Faction Remnant Souls.
However, everyone was soon dumbfounded.
These Dark Faction War Remnant Souls, after being shattered, would regain their original form in a short time and charge forward again.
"They are War Remnant Souls belonging to this battlefield! Even if they are shattered, they can regenerate!
Unless we separate them from this battlefield, it is impossible to eradicate them!"
Han Qianzi called out.
Everyone finally understood upon hearing Han Qianzi's words.
Indeed, the War Remnant Souls within this battlefield could not be killed in their normal state!
"Then how are we supposed to fight?
Isn't this all for nothing?"
Zhou Ye stopped moving and yelled unwillingly.
"If we don't fight, do you propose we just stand here and let them attack you? They cannot be killed, but you can be quite easily!
Fight!"
Yan Xiaoquan glared at Zhou Ye, then sliced several Dark Faction War Remnant Souls charging at Zhou Ye into pieces with a single sword strike.
"We will cover you all. Find an opportunity to escape!"
Han Qianzi sent a sound transmission to Ye Yunfei and the other four.
The several dozen Light Faction War Remnant Souls then deployed formations, subtly encircling and protecting Ye Yunfei's group of five juniors. They actively moved to the front, engaging the endless stream of charging Dark Faction War Remnant Souls in combat.
Not far away, the true form of that Black-robed figure stared at Ye Yunfei's group of five, a mocking expression in his eyes.
"You lingering souls need not struggle. You belong to our Dark Faction's reserve of nourishment. Stay peacefully on this battlefield for now. When the time comes, you will naturally serve your purpose."
That Black-robed figure's gaze swept over Han Qianzi and the other Light Faction War Remnant Souls as he spoke with a sinister laugh.
"Alright, now all of you, go back to where you belong!"
After finishing his statement, the Black-robed figure reached out and made a grabbing motion in the air.
Boom! Boom!...
The space occupied by the Light Faction War Remnant Souls around Ye Yunfei began to explode continuously.
Originally, the reason these Light Faction War Remnant Souls were able to move freely about within this ancient battlefield was because Ye Yunfei had isolated the small piece of space they occupied, severing it from the battlefield itself. That allowed them to escape the restraints of this ancient battlefield's laws. Now that the space they occupied was shattered, it was equivalent to pushing them back into this ancient battlefield, forcing them back under the jurisdiction of the battlefield's rules.
Swish! Swish!...
Once the space around these Light Faction War Remnant Souls shattered, powerful forces of suction suddenly materialized, acting upon the remnant souls there. They were forcibly dragged away, returning to their original positions within the battlefield.
In an instant, all the Light Faction War Remnant Souls around Ye Yunfei had been dragged away, not a single one left.
Thus, only the five members of Ye Yunfei's team remained.
"This guy's strength is terrifying!
And he must possess some means to alter the battlefield laws of this ancient battlefield.
It would be best for us to escape immediately. It's unlikely we can defeat him here!"
Hun Lao transmitted his urgent advice to Ye Yunfei.
"Escaping might be a bit difficult."
Ye Yunfei scanned his surroundings. A Black-robed figure stood in each of the four directions, and a large group of Dark Faction War Remnant Souls was rushing forward from all sides. He felt a headache coming on.
"We can only fight our way out by force!"
Yan Xiaoquan and the other three moved closer to Ye Yunfei, Yan Xiaoquan saying with a solemn expression.
She could tell that the Black-robed figure's strength was exceedingly fearsome.
And just the endless stream of Dark Faction War Remnant Souls encircling them was already more than enough for the five of them to handle.
"Heh heh, don't even think about escaping. Before me, you five juniors won't be able to escape."
That Black-robed figure's perception was astonishingly sharp. He sensed every move, expression, and reaction of Ye Yunfei's group of five with crystal clarity and chuckled coldly.
"Come here."
The Black-robed figure extended a palm and gave a gentle beckoning gesture.
Boom!...
A powerful force of suction instantly erupted, surging forth directly towards Zhou Ye, enveloping him completely.
Zhou Ye couldn't control his body at all. He was lifted into the air and sent flying towards the Black-robed figure.
"Stay!"
With a light shout, Ye Yunfei, Hun Lao, and the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm acted together, deploying spatial energy and Spatial Laws upon the space around Zhou Ye.
Rumble!...
The space around Zhou Ye began to twist and warp, undulating like ripples on water.
Zhou Ye's body came to a stop, suspended in mid-air, neither advancing nor retreating.
Zhou Ye's face had paled with fright.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Ye Yunfei produced the Soul-locking Bow and instantly released six long arrows. Two of them shot towards the Black-robed figure's true body, while the other four targeted his clones.
Boom! Boom!...
With a thought, Ye Yunfei summoned hundreds of Mystic Immortal artifacts simultaneously, activating them all at once. Like a torrential rain, they blasted densely towards the Black-robed figure's true body.
At the same time, Ye Yunfei also unleashed Mind Power energy, attacking the Black-robed figure's true form.
Ye Yunfei knew exactly how terrifying this Black-robed figure was. Thus, he poured his full effort into every attack, each one unleashing his maximum power.
"Hmm, not bad."
Seeing Ye Yunfei's array of attacks, the Black-robed figure nodded, revealing an appreciative expression.
"Save him!"
Yan Xiaoquan called out in a low voice.
Boom! Boom!...
Yan Xiaoquan, Wu Wang, and Wu Tianyu attacked simultaneously. While the three of them couldn't compare to Ye Yunfei, they were indeed quite capable themselves, being among the top tier in their own level. Wave after wave of frenzied attacks blasted towards the Black-robed figure.
"For the Light Faction to have nurtured juniors like you is truly something to be envied. It's a pity you encountered me; you will be cut down prematurely."
The Black-robed figure commented as he spoke. At the same time, he swept a sleeve forward. That sleeve expanded continuously, instantly blotting out the sky like a black storm cloud as it rushed forward.
All sorts of attacks were blocked by this black sleeve!
Swish!
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm suddenly appeared beside Zhou Ye. Using a profound space-based secret technique, it grabbed Zhou Ye, turned, and immediately fled.
Rumble!...
A black palm materialized abruptly, manifesting above the heads of the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm and Zhou Ye, then smashed down fiercely.
Boom!
Seeing this, Ye Yunfei immediately executed the Great Tathagata Eighteen Palms, manifesting a massive palm radiating dazzling Buddha light, which rose to intercept the black palm.
Ye Yunfei utilized the Spacetime Annihilation Technique and directly appeared beside the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm. Swinging a sleeve out, he coiled it around the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm and Zhou Ye, preparing to leave.
BOOM!
The massive palm from the Great Tathagata Eighteen Palms collided with the black palm, producing a thunderous sound.
Gah!
Ye Yunfei's body shook violently, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Black-robed figure's strength was simply overwhelming. Even a palm strike from a distance was something Ye Yunfei couldn't withstand, and he was directly injured.
"Oh?
Kid, I didn't expect your physical body to be so tough, and your palms are quite decent too. You could actually withstand one of my palm strikes."
The Black-robed figure was somewhat surprised to see that after blocking his palm, Ye Yunfei had only spat out some blood.
"However, you still won't be able to escape."
The Black-robed figure sneered.
As he spoke, he extended a palm once more. It continuously enlarged and shot towards Ye Yunfei with lightning speed.
Rumble!...
A terrifyingly immense force of spatial energy blasted towards Ye Yunfei.
Thump!
Although Ye Yunfei possessed numerous powerful techniques and martial skills, as well as various trump cards, he couldn't withstand the immense energy pressure contained within this palm strike. Furthermore, that Black-robed figure employed a bizarrely strange palm technique. Before Ye Yunfei could even react, he was struck and sent stumbling backward, spitting out several more mouthfuls of blood.
He had just started fighting and was already injured. This alone highlighted the Black-robed figure's terrifying strength.
