After that, Ye Yunfei continuously drew his bow and fired arrows, starting with the weakest opponents. In mere moments, he had shot down a large number of Dark Faction troops.
The Soul-Locking Bow possessed three major characteristics. The first was its unpredictability; the arrows it shot would directly disappear into the void, only to suddenly appear from an angle the enemy could never anticipate, striking them down before they could react.
The second characteristic was that the arrows would lock onto the enemy's aura. If the target tried to dodge, the arrow would automatically track them until the foe was slain.
The third characteristic was the immense power of the arrows it loosed!
These three traits gave the Soul-Locking Bow a fearsome lethality.
"That bow is an exceedingly rare, special magical treasure!" Elder Yan was somewhat shocked, staring intently at the Soul-Locking Bow in Ye Yunfei's hands.
With Ye Yunfei entering the fray, the pressure on the Light Faction immediately lessened considerably.
Given Ye Yunfei's current strength, using the Soul-Locking Bow against Mystic Immortal-level opponents meant nearly every shot found its mark—and every shot was fatal!
In a short time, the Dark Faction's forces suffered significant losses.
Such a situation naturally drew the attention of the Dark Faction's experts. Immediately, three True Immortal-level masters swiftly moved, charging toward Ye Yunfei's position.
These were three black-robed figures, exuding a sinister dark energy. Each held a black sickle in hand, radiating a chilling, cold light.
"Two beginner-level True Immortals, one intermediate-level True Immortal..." Ye Yunfei sensed the auras of these three black-robed men and ascertained their strength. He couldn't help but reveal a disdainful sneer.
To Ye Yunfei, these three True Immortals no longer posed any pressure at all.
"Kid, prepare to die!"
The three black-robed men moved with extreme speed, like three drifting wisps of black smoke, encircling Ye Yunfei.
"Oh no! True Immortal-level experts are making a move against Ye Yunfei! I need to go help him!" Yan Xiaoquan noticed Ye Yunfei's situation at this moment and grew anxious, preparing to extricate herself to lend assistance.
In truth, since the battle began, she had been paying occasional attention to Ye Yunfei's actions. Seeing him display such formidable prowess earlier, shooting down so many Dark Faction troops in mere moments, she felt both admiration and excitement.
She had now grown accustomed to focusing on Ye Yunfei's every move!
"Ye Yunfei is someone both Old Man Chu and Chan Master Tianwu value highly. I can't let anything happen to him in front of me, otherwise Old Man Chu and Chan Master Tianwu won't let me off easy later," Elder Yan thought, seeing this scene, and also prepared to make his move.
*Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!*
At that moment, the three Dark Faction True Immortal experts had already closed in on Ye Yunfei, simultaneously raising their sickles to attack.
Initially, these three Dark Faction experts assumed Ye Yunfei would use his archery against them. They hadn't expected Ye Yunfei to allow them to approach so close.
"Heh heh... Kid, you're far too overconfident. If you had used your archery skills, you might have had a chance to contend with the three of us for a while. You actually dared to let the three of us get close. You're dead now." One of the black-robed men said with a cold laugh.
*Boom...*
The three black-robed men erupted simultaneously, releasing a torrential wave of energy and pressure.
In the next instant...
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
The three black-robed men cried out in pain at the same time, as if struck by lightning. Their bodies staggered backward repeatedly, their expressions filled with sheer terror.
Next, the two black-robed men with beginner-level True Immortal strength directly collapsed to the ground, their auras completely extinguished.
"Such... such terrifying Soul Power attack methods..." The black-robed man with intermediate-level True Immortal strength stared at Ye Yunfei with horrified eyes, but before he could finish his sentence, his words died in his throat.
Following this, the black-robed man's body began to slowly crumple, finally falling into the dust below. He, too, had perished.
"How is that possible!" Seeing this, Elder Yan was utterly astounded, unable to believe his eyes.
A junior with only the strength of a beginner-level Mystic Immortal had instantaneously killed three True Immortal experts. Such combat power was terrifying.
"Excellent!" Yan Xiaoquan saw the three black-robed men fall one after another, experiencing both shock and delight.
"So Ye Yunfei's strength has already reached this level, nearly instantaneously killing three True Immortal experts. Even though my cultivation realm is higher than his, my actual combat power is incomparable to his!" Yan Xiaoquan's beautiful eyes were fixed on Ye Yunfei, and for a moment, she seemed entranced.
Just as Yan Xiaoquan was lost in thought, a black scimitar silently sliced towards the nape of her neck. Wherever it passed, it effortlessly cleaved through space, seemingly about to sever Yan Xiaoquan's elegant neck.
This was an attack from a Dark Faction being with advanced-level Mystic Immortal strength. Taking advantage of Yan Xiaoquan's momentary lapse, it launched a sneak attack from behind.
"No!" Yan Xiaoquan suddenly sensed the impending danger, her face turning pale with fright.
*Clang...*
Six long arrows appeared simultaneously, directly piercing the Dark Faction creature that had tried to ambush Yan Xiaoquan and causing it to explode into a cloud of black blood mist.
Ye Yunfei had intervened!
"He saved me again! He's practically my great savior!" Yan Xiaoquan was moved beyond words. She was increasingly realizing that being with Ye Yunfei gave her a sense of solid security.
"The power of the Soul Sword is truly excellent." At this moment, Ye Yunfei gazed at the now lifeless black-robed men before him, a faint smile appearing.
He had just used the Soul Sword to slay these three black-robed men.
Ye Yunfei's current Soul Power level had already reached the Earthly Immortal tier. Coupled with the indestructible Soul Sword, its lethality against True Immortal-level experts was utterly terrifying.
"Right now, my Soul Sea still seals away a portion of the energy from the War Remnant Souls. After refining all of it, my Soul Power level will increase further.
The harvest I gained from entering that ancient battlefield was immense indeed." Ye Yunfei thought to himself.
"Haha, worthy of the young geniuses that Old Man Chu and Chan Master Tianwu have their eyes on! Their judgment is something you simply have to admire!" Elder Yan said with a laugh.
Seeing Ye Yunfei instantly kill those three black-robed men, Elder Yan felt a wave of relief. Now he no longer needed to worry about Ye Yunfei's safety.
*Clang! Clang...*
After slaying the three black-robed men, Ye Yunfei continued to use the Soul-Locking Bow to shoot down Dark Faction troops, still targeting from the weakest upwards.
Facing the arrows Ye Yunfei shot, the weaker Dark Faction soldiers had no ability to resist, not even the capacity to evade.
As Ye Yunfei kept shooting them down, the number of Dark Faction troops dwindled.
Numerically, the Dark Faction forces no longer held an advantage!
"Kill!"
The Light Faction troops were greatly emboldened. Fighting with ferocity, their battle intent boiling over—some even performed beyond their usual level. Gradually, the situation on the battlefield began to change; the Light Faction was no longer at a disadvantage!
"Good, good! Ye Yunfei actually managed to turn the tide of this battle single-handedly!" Seeing this situation, Elder Yan was extremely pleased, smiling as he spoke.
"If we don't kill that kid, this battle will become impossible for us to fight." At this moment, a Dark Faction expert had fixed his gaze on Ye Yunfei, radiating killing intent.
This Dark Faction expert was also draped in a black robe, making it impossible to discern his true appearance.
This was someone possessing Advanced True Immortal strength!
*Whoosh!*
The black-robed man's figure flashed, transforming into a wisp of black smoke as he shot toward Ye Yunfei.
"Another True Immortal expert, and an Advanced True Immortal at that.
I wonder, with my current strength, how I'd fare against an Advanced True Immortal." Ye Yunfei's Soul Power was extraordinarily powerful. He had long since sensed this black-robed man's movements and mused inwardly.
"Very well, I'll test the combat power of an Advanced True Immortal!"
Ye Yunfei did not use the Soul-Locking Bow against this black-robed man, a thought flashing through his mind.
