Inside the Phantom Tower, Ye Yunfei sat cross-legged.
"According to Senior Chu's meaning, there are still traitors among the Thirty-Six Battalions. Since only twenty-eight battalions remain, and all their forces are within Feixian Continent, it means the traitors are definitely here too," Ye Yunfei carefully recalled the message from Old Man Chu.
"If I find out who the traitors are, I will show no mercy!" Ye Yunfei said coldly.
"But for me, the most important thing is still to seize time and improve my strength," Ye Yunfei muttered to himself.
"I just made a breakthrough in my cultivation realm, as well as in my physical strength. Next, I need to properly cultivate Soul Power, Mental Force, various laws, and martial skills."
After reviewing his comprehensive abilities in all aspects, Ye Yunfei made a decision.
Buzz...
A black pearl shot out from the top of Ye Yunfei's head and hovered above him.
The Heart-Refining Pearl!
Ye Yunfei had obtained this Heart-Refining Pearl back in the small mountain village where Mr. Liu lived in seclusion within Tianpo Realm, from the ancestral hall at the entrance of the village.
It was a magical artifact specifically used for cultivating Mental Force energy. The method of use was relatively simple: channel one's own Mental Force energy into the pearl to be tempered, thereby enhancing it.
Ye Yunfei had already used this pearl many times to cultivate Mental Force energy, so he was very familiar with it. He directly channeled his Mental Force energy into the Heart-Refining Pearl and began his cultivation.
"Soul Power and Space Energy also need good improvement," Ye Yunfei thought for a moment, then took out a large quantity of Soul Force energy crystals and Space energy crystals, starting to refine and absorb them.
Simultaneously, Ye Yunfei had one soul body comprehend Soul Force energy and another comprehend the laws of Space.
In this way, Ye Yunfei was cultivating Mental Force energy, Soul Force energy, and Space energy at the same time.
Such a cultivation method was breathtaking. Only Ye Yunfei could do it, because he possessed two soul bodies that could simultaneously comprehend and cultivate two different laws and techniques.
The amount of Soul Force energy crystals and Space energy crystals Ye Yunfei currently possessed was astonishing, piled up into small hills—over a hundred of them.
Recently, Ye Yunfei had first ventured into Tianpo Realm and later into the Colorless Abyss, gaining enormous harvests. The quantity of various energy crystals he now owned was staggering, and their grades were very high. Not to mention Earth Immortal-level energy crystals, he even had Golden Immortal and even Heavenly Immortal-level ones!
As time passed, Ye Yunfei refined and absorbed an increasing number of energy crystals, with Soul Power and Space Energy continuously improving. At the same time, Mental Force energy was also being enhanced.
Recently, due to the tense situation, Ye Yunfei had been constantly busy. It was rare to have such undisturbed time for peaceful cultivation.
Approximately a hundred days later inside the Phantom Tower, Ye Yunfei had completely refined and absorbed all the Soul Force and Space energy crystals he had previously taken out.
"Next, fuse a batch of Perfected Earth Immortal-level magical artifacts," Ye Yunfei waved his hand and took out over two hundred Perfected Earth Immortal-level artifacts, starting to cultivate the Skygold Clan's Secret Art of Body as Vessel to fuse with these artifacts.
Ever since consuming a Golden Lotus Fruit, Ye Yunfei found that his physical body could more easily fuse with various artifacts. He speculated that his flesh had undergone some kind of transformation.
Over a dozen days later, Ye Yunfei had fused with over two hundred Perfected Earth Immortal-level artifacts. Not only did his physical strength increase, but the quality of his body improved significantly more.
"My physical body is now completely a Perfected Earth Immortal-level artifact, and far more durable than ordinary Perfected Earth Immortal artifacts! Even if I'm directly hit by a Perfected Earth Immortal now, my body probably won't suffer any major harm," Ye Yunfei murmured to himself.
At that moment, Ye Yunfei's expression suddenly shifted as he received a transmitted message.
It was from Commander Wan of the 19th Battalion, saying that an Elder from the Reincarnation Palace had come requesting an audience.
"An Elder from the Reincarnation Palace? Could something have happened to the Reincarnation Palace?" Ye Yunfei was somewhat surprised.
Ye Yunfei immediately left the Phantom Tower and exited the training room. He saw Commander Wan standing outside with an old man.
"He is indeed an Elder of the Reincarnation Palace," Ye Yunfei glanced at the old man and thought inwardly. He had indeed seen this old man when he entered the Reincarnation Realm before.
"Greetings, Young Master Ye!" the old man cupped his fists and bowed as soon as he saw Ye Yunfei.
"No need for formalities. What business brings you to me?" Ye Yunfei asked directly.
"Young Master Ye, my surname is Li. I am an ordinary Elder of the Reincarnation Palace. A day ago, our Reincarnation Palace was suddenly attacked by a coalition of the Qingxuan Sect, four other major forces, and the Dark Faction.
As the enemy's overall strength was very powerful, although the Patriarch and Palace Lord Su led the entire palace's forces in a fierce resistance, the enemy ultimately breached our headquarters. The casualties were devastating.
Currently, the Patriarch and Palace Lord Su have taken our palace's remaining forces and taken temporary refuge in the Ancestral Lands, relying on a few ancient Formations passed down there and a group of remnant souls left behind by past ancestors to barely hold on. However, the situation is also critical, and we don't know how much longer we can last.
The Patriarch, Palace Lord Su, two Grand Elders, and many other high-ranking members are injured.
I originally wanted to follow the Patriarch and Palace Lord Su into the Ancestral Lands as well, but in the chaos of battle, I was separated and lost the chance to re-enter. I later fled the headquarters amidst the confusion.
I wanted to seek reinforcements, but unfortunately, some forces and clans that usually maintain close ties with our Reincarnation Palace all avoided seeing me, simply not wanting to have any connection with us anymore.
Completely desperate and forced by circumstances, I thought of you, Young Master Ye, so I swallowed my pride and came to beg for your help," the old man said.
This Elder Li was indeed dressed in tattered clothes, his body stained with blood, clearly having experienced a fierce battle.
"Oh? Such a thing happened?" Ye Yunfei was a bit taken aback.
Su Qingluo had only just returned not long ago. He didn't expect the Reincarnation Palace to be breached so quickly.
"Did Qing Luo also get injured?" Ye Yunfei asked with a frown.
Naturally, among the people of the Reincarnation Palace, Ye Yunfei cared most about Su Qingluo.
"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes. The Patriarch was surrounded and attacked by four or five powerful experts. Palace Lord Su intervened to help, and as a result, both the Patriarch and Palace Lord Su were injured," Elder Li replied.
"Since Qing Luo is injured, I cannot ignore this. Alright, I will go with you to the Reincarnation Palace. Let's set off now," Ye Yunfei thought for a moment and said.
