"You brat, you deserve to die!"
The Perfected Earth Immortal roared in fury upon witnessing Ye Yunfei slay another Earth Immortal.
Rumble…
Driven to its utmost limit, the dark banner erupted with terrifyingly potent dark energy and aura. It directly shattered a large swath of crimson fire dragons and even vaporized a vast expanse of the mud, stones, and earth within the subterranean world.
However, with a series of hand seals, Ye Yunfei stirred the Earth Qi, mobilizing a huge quantity of earth and soil from other distant areas to flow over and fill the region emptied by the battle's devastation.
This mud, stone, and earth served as the carrier for the Earth Qi energy. Without it, the Death Land and all the Earth Formations Ye Yunfei had laid would vanish outright.
Swoosh!
Fusing with the Earth Qi energy, Ye Yunfei's figure moved with indescribable speed, appearing behind yet another Advanced Earth Immortal in an instant to launch a ferocious assault.
Ah…
After just a few exchanges, this Advanced Earth Immortal's physical body and Soul Body were extinguished.
"Jiejie… Excellent! The soul essence of these Advanced Earth Immortals is truly great tonic for me! Refining and absorbing it has started to significantly boost my strength!"
After refining and absorbing the soul essence of another Advanced Earth Immortal, Huang Shang felt immensely pleased and couldn't help but laugh.
Rumble…
Ye Yunfei saw that the Blood Clan Clone's body was surging with terrifying blood energy, boiling and churning violently. The energy pressure radiating from it clearly indicated it was undergoing some sort of metamorphosis.
"Good. The Blood Clan Clone's strength is also continuously improving," Ye Yunfei mused inwardly.
Swoosh!
Moving with extreme speed once more, Ye Yunfei appeared behind another Dark Faction Advanced Earth Immortal and unleashed a frenzied attack without hesitation.
"Everyone, save me!"
Having witnessed Ye Yunfei slaughter several companions in succession, this Advanced Earth Immortal was scared out of his wits. Lacking the courage to duel Ye Yunfei, he immediately cried out in terror upon sensing Ye Yunfei's arrival.
"Too late!"
Ye Yunfei laughed heartily, his attacks growing even more ferocious, as if venting a portion of the pent-up resentment festering within him these past few days.
In a flash like lightning and flint, a few moves later, Ye Yunfei's first punch crippled half of this Advanced Earth Immortal's body, and a second follow-up punch finished the job, leaving him completely maimed.
Rumble…
At that moment, the black banner, propelled by the Perfected Earth Immortal, came rumbling towards Ye Yunfei.
"Everyone, form the Sickle Formation!"
Suddenly, one Advanced Earth Immortal shouted.
Clang! Clang!
All the remaining Dark Faction Earth Immortals each produced a pitch-black sickle, which enlarged continuously. These black sickles then converged, forming a large Sickle Formation that spun with terrifying speed, slicing and annihilating everything in its path.
This was an inherited combat formation of the Dark Faction, renowned for its fearsome power. Unleashed now by so many Dark Faction Earth Immortals working in concert, its might was downright horrifying. In an instant, it vaporized another massive area of mud, stone, and earth, creating a vacuum zone within the underground realm.
Witnessing this, Ye Yunfei's expression shifted slightly, and he hastily merged into the Earth Qi energy to evade.
It wasn't that Ye Yunfei feared the Sickle Formation itself; shielded by the Death Land, he was confident he could avoid its attacks unscathed. The problem was, if this Sickle Formation destroyed all the mud, stone, and earth in this subterranean area, the Death Land and Earth Formations he'd laid would lose their physical anchor. Without them, confronting this many Earth Immortals plus a Perfected Earth Immortal simultaneously would be considerably more difficult.
Rumble…
Ye Yunfei utilized his Geomancy Technique, communicating with the Earth Qi to cast spells that transported more earth and soil from distant regions to replenish the depleted materials.
"I must hurry and kill as many of these guys as possible!"
His figure blurred, and he reappeared behind another Advanced Earth Immortal, launching another violent offensive. A few lightning-fast moves later, this Advanced Earth Immortal was slain.
"Listen, everyone! This brat is a Geomancer. He's laid numerous Earth Formations throughout this underground world, making this his territory. From now on, our strikes should focus on destroying as much of the earth and soil here as possible. Without it, his Earth Formations are useless. At the same time, gather towards me! I will activate an inherited United Body secret technique of our Dark Faction. Once your energies are merged with mine, our combined power will soar, and we will undoubtedly kill this whelp!"
Seeing Ye Yunfei repeatedly relocate earth from distant areas to replenish the world around them, the Perfected Earth Immortal suddenly understood the situation and immediately sent this message via Sound Transmission to the other Dark Faction Earth Immortals.
Shaken by Ye Yunfei's godlike ferocity and the consecutive deaths of their comrades, the remaining Earth Immortals felt a chill in their hearts. Upon hearing the Perfected Earth Immortal's transmission, their spirits rallied as if they'd found a pillar of support, and they swiftly began converging towards him.
"They're preparing to combine forces. Looks like I must kill a few more before they can complete their union."
Observing the Dark Faction cultivators' movements, Ye Yunfei frowned slightly.
Boom!
Stomping his foot, Ye Yunfei caused the Blood-Fiend Dragon Lair to erupt in turmoil. Boundless Earth Qi energy and countless crimson fire dragons seemed to go berserk, furiously attacking the Dark Faction Earth Immortals to prevent them from gathering near the Perfected Earth Immortal.
Swoosh!
Ye Yunfei's figure flickered, arriving behind another Advanced Earth Immortal.
"You brat, I'll fight you to the death!"
Realizing Ye Yunfei had struck and knowing escape was impossible, this Advanced Earth Immortal gritted his teeth. He wielded a pitch-black longsword in his left hand and a dark sickle in his right, attacking Ye Yunfei with both weapons simultaneously.
Rumble…
A total of eighteen jet-black, fearsome auras shot out from the crown of this Advanced Earth Immortal's head, hurtling towards Ye Yunfei.
But in the next instant, hundreds of crimson fire dragons appeared, intercepting those eighteen black phantoms.
Clang! Clang!
Ye Yunfei raised his hands, delivering two punches that smashed aside, shattered, and reduced the pitch-black longsword and the dark sickle into numerous black fragments.
Finally, with a bang, Ye Yunfei's single punch blasted this Dark Faction Earth Immortal into oblivion.
Rumble…
By now, four or five Earth Immortals had already gathered near the Perfected Earth Immortal. Pooling their strength, they instantly vaporized another large expanse of mud, stone, and earth.
"Everyone, I will now activate the inherited United Body secret technique of our Dark Faction. You will merge into my body, and your energies will temporarily serve my will!"
The Perfected Earth Immortal of the Dark Faction declared.
As he spoke, streams of black, arcane runes began flying from his body. His physical form itself started to twist and contort.
