BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Ye Yunfei and that Dark Faction expert both unleashed their skills, locked in a fierce and brutal struggle. The terrifying combat energy they released forced everyone nearby to retreat.
Ye Yunfei deployed his physical strength, spatial energy, heart force energy, and Soul Power, combining them with various profound cultivation methods and secret arts, attacking and defending without yielding an inch.
The Dark Faction expert was equally ferocious. When the battle reached its peak, one hundred and eight black sickles rushed out from within his body, forming a Sickle Battle Array. They spun rapidly, slicing the space around them to pieces, causing it to collapse incessantly.
"Elder Xue, Ye Yunfei is actually fighting that guy to a standstill!" A senior approached, exclaiming in astonishment at the sight.
"It seems our Light Faction has produced a truly monstrous young talent!" another Light Faction Elder arrived, sighing in amazement.
In truth, Ye Yunfei had fought against a Perfected Earth Immortal before—he had even slain an exceptionally powerful one like the Five Immortals Poison King. However, on those past occasions, Ye Yunfei had relied on other means. For instance, he would first arrange a perilous terrain and fight the Perfected Earth Immortal head-on only with the cooperation of that terrain. When he slew the Five Immortals Poison King, he had even used a spatial vortex's turmoil to severely injure the Poison King first, seizing the opportunity to finish him off. Ye Yunfei knew that in a direct face-to-face confrontation, he would definitely not be the Poison King's match!
But this time was different. This time, Ye Yunfei was fighting a Perfected Earth Immortal almost solely with his own true combat power!
For a junior at the Perfected True Immortal level to possess such battle prowess was simply astounding.
At this moment, the Dark Faction forces had been thoroughly defeated, most of their members slain, with only a small number fortunate enough to escape.
The Light Faction's high-ranking experts had stopped fighting and gathered around to watch the battle between Ye Yunfei and the Dark Faction expert. They were all shocked by the terrifying combat strength Ye Yunfei displayed.
BOOM! BOOM!
Amidst the fierce clash, Ye Yunfei swung his fists, colliding continuously with those black sickles, blow after blow, a rapid series of ringing sounds like metal being forged.
Only, Ye Yunfei's physical body had fused with so many Earth Immortal-level artifacts. It was incomparably hard. He clashed directly and viciously with those Dark sickles, sparks flying in showers, but he suffered no damage whatsoever.
"Kid, no matter what, I *will* cut you down today!"
That Dark Faction expert was driven into a killing frenzy. He caused the one hundred and eight black sickles to continuously enlarge until they almost filled this entire stretch of space-time, carrying a majestic pressure as they all slashed towards Ye Yunfei, intending to crush him utterly.
"If you want to kill me, you'll need to prove you have what it takes!" Ye Yunfei replied, his own battle lust also incited to madness. He directly activated a physical body divine ability. His stature swelled, transforming into a giant standing within the bewildering space-time in the blink of an eye, imposing a massive visual pressure on all who saw him.
Following this, both sides engaged in another intensely violent struggle.
It had to be said that this Perfected Earth Immortal from the Dark Faction possessed frightening battle strength. Moreover, his body was also incredibly sturdy, possessing immense physical power. He had definitely trained in some profound physique-refining secret art. As such, Ye Yunfei was finding it somewhat difficult to defeat him.
"If not for the poison creatures helping me gang up on this fellow earlier, I might not have been his opponent!" Elder Xue, watching from the side, felt his heart racing as he observed the fight, silently acknowledging this thought.
It could be said Ye Yunfei had encountered a comparatively powerful Perfected Earth Immortal!
"Elder Xue, let's join in and help Ye Yunfei. If this keeps going on, who knows how long it will take to decide the outcome." A Light Faction Earth Immortal expert spoke.
"No. Ye Yunfei wants to test his combat power. Let him have a full, satisfying fight. We'll just watch from the sidelines," Elder Xue said.
"To use a Perfected Earth Immortal to test his power... if word got out, no one would dare believe it," another Light Faction expert shook his head with a bitter smile.
"He has the confidence for it," Elder Xue said softly, his eyes fixed on Ye Yunfei.
Just then, a middle-aged man hurried over from the distance, stopping before Elder Xue. "Elder Xue, news has just emerged—that legendary Divine World seems to have appeared!"
"What? The legendary Divine World has appeared?"
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, everyone present perked up.
"Is it true?" Elder Xue asked.
"It seems quite likely. Already many beings are rushing towards that location," the middle-aged man replied.
"In that case, let's go take a look as well. That legendary Divine World was the dwelling place of deities within this space-time during the ancient era. Inside, there might be treasures or legacies left behind by deities—a truly heaven-defying opportunity. Since we are within the Colorless Abyss, we shouldn't miss out," Elder Xue pondered for a moment before stating solemnly.
The other Light Faction experts nearby all nodded in agreement.
"Ye Yunfei, we shouldn't waste any more time. How about this: we work together to finish off this fellow, then rush immediately to the place where that Divine World has appeared," Elder Xue said to Ye Yunfei.
"Alright." Ye Yunfei nodded.
The Dark Faction expert before him possessed extremely formidable battle strength. Ye Yunfei understood in his heart that completely defeating the man in a short period would be difficult.
And for matters of exploration and treasure seeking, naturally the earlier one arrived, the better.
"Let's attack together!" Elder Xue barked.
BOOM! BOOM!
The next instant, all the Earth Immortal experts of the Light Faction erupted with power, moving to surround and attack the Dark Faction expert.
"I'll help you!" Huang Shang roared as well, commanding a vast horde of poisonous creatures and gu organisms to join the siege.
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm naturally wasn't one to miss such excitement. Leading his grand army of venomous insects in an imposing, vast array, he joined the encirclement against the Dark Faction expert.
Facing such a collective, concentrated assault, this Dark Faction expert stood absolutely no chance of fighting back.
In the blink of an eye, his body was smashed apart in an explosion!
Just when everyone assumed the Dark Faction expert should have perished body and soul, a dark figure suddenly appeared in the distance. Its gaze fixed on Ye Yunfei, it spoke with venomous bitterness, gnashing its teeth as it said, "Kid, you just wait. After I recover, my very first task will be to come and settle accounts with you!"
"He's still alive?" Ye Yunfei found this hard to believe.
Only moments ago, Ye Yunfei himself had unleashed Formless Heart Sword and Soul Sword, striking the Dark Faction expert's Soul Body. He had watched the man's Soul Body explode firsthand. How could he have reappeared now?
"How is that possible?!" The other Light Faction experts were equally shocked.
After finishing its sentence, the Dark Faction expert turned and left, vanishing in an instant.
"Back in the last Cataclysm War, something similar happened. Some Dark Faction experts were clearly slain, yet later inexplicably revived," an old man, gazing at the spot where the Dark Faction expert had disappeared, said with a grave expression.
"There's such a thing?" Hearing this, Ye Yunfei was rather astonished.
