At this moment, Ye Yunfei had already burrowed beneath the ground near the city and was traveling through the subterranean world.
"This continent also has Earth Qi!
And the Earth Qi energy is abundant!
It seems that wherever there is earth, there will be Earth Qi energy.
Just like wherever there is space, there exist spatial energy and spatial laws!"
Ye Yunfei, discovering Earth Qi energy everywhere, felt pleasantly surprised.
"Black Earth Dragons!"
Soon, Ye Yunfei saw many black Earth Dragons.
Originally, within the Earth Dragon system of the Geomancy Technique, Black Dragons were a rank lower than Golden Dragons, but Ye Yunfei could sense that the strength of these Black Dragons before him was in no way inferior to Golden Dragons. In fact, many of these colossal Black Dragons were even more powerful than Golden Dragons!
"It seems this continent is rather special, and thus it has bred special Earth Dragons. They cannot be categorized by the normal Earth Dragon rankings," Ye Yunfei thought to himself.
In fact, Old Man Lu had long ago told Ye Yunfei that some special kinds of earth could nurture special Earth Qi energy and Earth Dragons.
"However, as long as it is Earth Qi energy or Earth Dragons, we Earth Masters have ways to control them!"
Ye Yunfei sneered.
Rumble...
Ye Yunfei pressed his palms together and then pushed forward. An illusory compass appeared. The layers of runes within the compass rotated rapidly, and a golden needle hovered in its center, trembling slightly.
"Compass Earth Commanding Art!"
Ye Yunfei formed hand seals, channeled the Earth Qi, and uttered a soft incantation.
Boom...
The illusory compass spun continuously, its volume expanding unceasingly. The Earth Qi energy in this part of the subterranean world immediately began flowing rapidly along specific trajectories, converging toward Ye Yunfei's location.
Roar...
One after another, black Earth Dragons, constrained by the illusory compass, also began swimming towards Ye Yunfei's position.
Simultaneously, vast numbers of profound runes burst forth from the compass like sparks, continuously seeping into the surrounding soil and stone, fusing with them into one.
"Laws of the Earth, heed my command!"
Ye Yunfei pointed at the illusory compass and uttered another command.
Rumble...
As Ye Yunfei's voice sounded, this portion of the subterranean world trembled slightly. Then, an indescribably profound sensation began to emerge — Ye Yunfei discovered that this part of the subterranean world seemed to begin operating according to his will. With just a thought, he could mobilize the energy of this subterranean region, the laws of the earth, and all the mud, soil, and stones.
"So the Compass Earth Commanding Art truly can manipulate a stretch of earth.
Of course, with my current level in the Geomancy Technique, I can only manipulate earth within a small area. But in the future, as my skill continuously improves, the day will come when I can manipulate an entire continent at will!
When that time comes, wherever a continent exists, that will be my domain!"
Ye Yunfei felt somewhat excited.
This Compass Earth Commanding Art was something Ye Yunfei had learned from Old Man Lu. According to Old Man Lu, this was an extremely rare Geomancy Technique. If cultivated to its peak, one could summon several continents from afar with a wave of the hand, refining them into magical treasures for battle, possessing boundless power.
"Now I can enter the city."
Ye Yunfei, manipulating the Earth Qi, flashed his figure and arrived beneath the city.
After using the Compass Earth Commanding Art to control this stretch of the subterranean world, Ye Yunfei possessed extreme speed here. No matter which position he wanted to reach, he arrived instantly, requiring no time.
The next moment, Ye Yunfei emerged from underground, standing on a street within the city.
"Everyone, good news! That kid Ye Yunfei has already entered the city. We can show ourselves!
I will now activate the Net of Heaven and Earth Grand Formation within the city!"
In the distant sky, an expert from the Dark Faction sent a sound transmission to the others.
As he spoke, this Dark Faction expert took out eighteen black formation flags, arranging them in a line suspended before him.
"Formation, arise!"
The Dark Faction expert uttered a light shout.
At this time, within the city ahead, Ye Yunfei was releasing his Soul Power, scanning the entire city in an attempt to locate Huang Zhishi.
"This city is saturated with Huang Zhishi's aura everywhere. It was probably simulated on purpose. Even if Huang Zhishi did come here, his aura couldn't possibly be all over the place because this is Dark Faction territory. If Huang Zhishi came here, he wouldn't be able to stroll around freely and cover every corner of the city!
This is a trap!"
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm warned Ye Yunfei via sound transmission, alert.
"What's more important is, even though Huang Zhishi's aura is everywhere in this city, Huang Zhishi himself doesn't seem to be here!"
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm added.
"Yes, this is definitely a trap!
And there are traces of formations in this city!"
Ye Yunfei nodded.
"Then let's leave immediately. Why are we still waiting here!"
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm cried out.
"It's already too late."
Ye Yunfei shook his head.
Boom! Boom!
Inside and outside the city, above and below, deafening roars erupted as layers of black formation light screens appeared one after another, like enormous black sacks, tightly enveloping the city.
"The moment we stepped into this city, these formations had already silently activated, surrounding us.
Even if these formations weren't activated, if we wanted to get out, we'd have to break through them first."
Ye Yunfei said, frowning as he looked at the layer upon layer of black formation light screens around him.
If not for these formations, the moment Ye Yunfei entered the city and sensed something was wrong, he would have long since immediately left with the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm.
Right at this moment.
Boom! Boom!
In the distant sky, Earth Immortal experts appeared one after another, their auras sharp and imposing. The energy pressure they released immediately caused this stretch of the world to tremble.
These Earth Immortals were extremely fast. The moment they appeared, they arrived around the city one after another, releasing their various energies and laws to seal this city.
"Hahaha...
Ye Yunfei, they say when the road to heaven lies open, you chose the path to hell, and now the gates are barred!
Now you can't escape even if you grew wings!"
A Dark Faction Earth Immortal stared at Ye Yunfei with a mocking gaze and laughed loudly.
"Ye Yunfei, for a junior like you to have gathered so many Earth Immortal experts here, laying a trap just for you — truly worthy of your notorious reputation as a young freak!
However, today you will die here."
Another Dark Faction Earth Immortal said with a cold laugh.
"You little bastard! Because of you, the headquarters of our Qiantang Empire was destroyed, and so many of our Qiantang Empire's people died. Today, we will settle this blood feud!"
An old man wearing yellow official robes stared fixedly at Ye Yunfei with eyes filled with intense hatred. His murderous intent was boundless as he spoke through gritted teeth.
