"Haha, not bad, not bad."
Within the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds, an ordinary-looking elder watched the battle scene with a satisfied look, nodding repeatedly at Ye Yunfei's performance.
"Our Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds have produced a Ye Yunfei. From now on, we are no longer a world cluster that outsiders can bully at will!"
Old Man Chu and Zen Master Tianwu stood at the forefront of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds' army. Seeing the Devil Race forces struggle for so long yet still unable to charge near the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds filled them with exhilaration, and they laughed heartily.
"Fighting alongside Ye Yunfei is truly exhilarating! In the past, facing major forces like the Demon Capital, we could only flee at the first sign of trouble and had no power to resist. But now, following Young Master Ye, we can face the Demon Capital's army head-on!"
Those who had come from other world clusters to join Ye Yunfei were also invigorated, their fighting spirit soaring, fully prepared for battle.
"Kid surnamed Ye, where do you think you're escaping to!"
At this moment, the Devil Race Advanced Demigod chasing Ye Yunfei roared in fury, shattering three large Earth Formations and over a dozen Formations in succession as he closed in on Ye Yunfei, shouting loudly.
Ye Yunfei waved his hand, sending out dozens of formation banners that flew behind him, constantly erupting and instantly forming over a dozen large arrays to block the path behind him.
*Swoosh!*
Ye Yunfei's figure flickered, once again putting distance between himself and the Devil Race Advanced Demigod.
Roar… roar…
The Devil Race Advanced Demigod was frustrated to the extreme. If not for these numerous Earth Formations and Formations, he would have long caught up to Ye Yunfei. He had immense abilities, but until now, he hadn't even touched a corner of Ye Yunfei's robe.
"Break for me!"
This Devil Race Advanced Demigod roared in anger. Over a dozen devilish dragons roiling with devilish energy coiled around him, a seven-story Devil Pagoda hovered above his head, and three devil swords floated before him, murderous aura soaring to the heavens as they broke Earth Formation after Formation.
With Ye Yunfei's current level of Earth Pattern technique and Formations, only an Advanced Demigod could easily dismantle them in a short time. Initial Demigods and Intermediate Demigods would need to spend considerable time and effort to crack the Earth Formations and Formations Ye Yunfei had laid.
"First, I'll kill a few Primary and Intermediate Demigods to collect some interest," Ye Yunfei's gaze turned to the Devil Race's Primary and Intermediate Demigods as he said with a cold laugh.
*Swoosh!*
A Teleportation Earth Formation beneath Ye Yunfei's feet erupted, instantly teleporting him before a Devil Race Initial Demigod.
This Devil Race Initial Demigod was trapped in the middle of five Earth Formations and over a dozen Formations, currently trying to break them. Since the Devil Race had a total of sixteen Primary and Intermediate Demigods, Ye Yunfei had used his Earth Pattern technique and Formations to trap a portion of them.
"You can die now."
Ye Yunfei appeared like a ghost before this Devil Race Initial Demigod, speaking coldly. Then, he threw a punch.
Ye Yunfei's current physical strength had reached 470,000 jiao. Combined with over a hundred Demigod treasures fused within his body, both his power and quality had reached a staggering level.
*Boom… Boom…*
The effect of 470,000 jiao of physical power was terrifying. As Ye Yunfei's fist advanced, the space ahead continuously shattered, countless fragments of time and space swirling wildly.
"Everyone, save me!"
Feeling Ye Yunfei's terrifying fist force, this Devil Race Initial Demigod was so frightened his soul almost left his body, crying out in panic. At the same time, he wanted to turn and flee. He knew he was no match for Ye Yunfei.
However, Ye Yunfei's fist force was truly horrifying. Surging power had already sealed this space. Coupled with dangerous and treacherous Earth Formations and many Formations in the surroundings, this Devil Race Initial Demigod found himself sinking into a quagmire, his movements becoming increasingly difficult and utterly unable to escape.
"Ye Yunfei, stop!"
The Devil Race Advanced Demigod chasing Ye Yunfei from behind was closing in. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but roar.
*Pfft!*
Ye Yunfei's fist swept forward, directly shattering that Devil Race Initial Demigod into a mist of blood.
"Four hundred seventy thousand jiao of physical strength can already achieve a crushing effect against Initial Demigods." Ye Yunfei revealed a smile. Instantly killing a Initial Demigod made Ye Yunfei extremely satisfied with his current physical strength.
Ye Yunfei waved his sleeve, collecting the bloodline essence and Soul Body essence left by the Initial Demigod and teleporting them into the Phantom Tower for his Blood Race clone and Huang Shang to absorb.
Because that Devil Race Advanced Demigod was constantly chasing from behind, it wasn't suitable for the Blood Race clone and Huang Shang to reveal themselves, as they would become targets.
*Roar…*
The Devil Race Advanced Demigod behind roared at the top of his lungs, infuriated to the extreme.
*Swoosh!*
Ye Yunfei utilized a Space Teleportation Talisman to instantly teleport before another Devil Race Initial Demigod. Without a word, he threw another punch.
This Devil Race Initial Demigod was in combat with a Initial Demigod from the Fire Clan, the battle intense.
*Rumble…*
Vast physical strength empowered Ye Yunfei's fist, shattering the space inch by inch ahead, raising blooming mushroom clouds of energy.
That Devil Race Initial Demigod's face instantly paled with fright. Just as he wanted to turn and defend, Ye Yunfei's fist tyrannically shattered his devilish body as if crushing a watermelon.
Another instant kill of a Initial Demigod!
"Young Master Ye's combat power is too terrifying!"
That Fire Clan Initial Demigod witnessing this was completely stunned, almost unable to believe it. A mere Heavenly Immortal, yet so easily instant-killing a Demigod.
"Let's go, quickly."
Ye Yunfei swiftly collected the bloodline essence and Soul Body essence left by the Devil Race Initial Demigod, teleporting it into the Phantom Tower. Then, he swept up the Fire Clan Initial Demigod with his sleeve and quickly departed.
"Roar… Ye Yunfei, you damned whelp! I swear, I will tear you to pieces!"
The instant Ye Yunfei departed with the Fire Clan Initial Demigod, that Devil Race Advanced Demigod from behind caught up. Seeing Ye Yunfei had killed another Demon Race Demigod, he was so angry he almost exploded.
Following this, Ye Yunfei consecutively killed two more Devil Race Initial Demigods and one Devil Race Intermediate Demigod.
Under the coordination of various cultivation arts, secret techniques, Earth Formations, and Formations, Ye Yunfei used only three moves to kill that Devil Race Intermediate Demigod. Since Ye Yunfei's attack speed was too fast, it was over in the blink of an eye.
Thus, in just a short moment, Ye Yunfei had slain five or six Demon Race Demigods.
"Damn it…"
This scene made all the Demon Race Demigods roar in anger, each one enraged to the extreme. Meanwhile, Ye Yunfei's side, the Demigod experts were invigorated, fighting more valiantly with each passing moment.
"Fight on! Everyone rest assured, I will use Earth Formations and Formations to aid you all in facing the enemy," Ye Yunfei transmitted his voice to Elder Kong and the others.
While Ye Yunfei understood that casualties among his forces were unavoidable once battle erupted, combat was the most fundamental path of tempering and growth. If the people under him wanted to grow, they had to participate in battle, especially battles against powerful forces like the Devil Race army—such opportunities were rare. Moreover, within this stretch of void, he had deployed a large number of Earth Formations and Formations, allowing him to rescue his own people at any time.
"By Young Master Ye's order, fight! Kill!"
Upon hearing Ye Yunfei's words, Elder Kong immediately shouted loudly and was the first to lead the charge toward the Devil Race army.
"Kill!"
The forces of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds roared in unison, charging toward the Devil Race army like rolling tidal waves. Speaking of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds' army, most were actually comprised of people from various world clusters who had come to seek refuge with Ye Yunfei some time ago. In the past period, Ye Yunfei had taken in people from over ten world clusters; combined, their numbers were substantial.
Now, assembled together, these people from so many world clusters resembled a vast ocean sweeping toward the Devil Race army.
"Meet the enemy!"
Leaders large and small within the Devil Race army roared simultaneously.
The next moment…
*Rumble…*
The armies of both sides collided, and a terrifying great battle erupted.
*Boom… Boom…*
Ye Yunfei stomped his foot, causing Earth Formations and Formations to continuously shift, mainly aiding his own forces while restricting or attacking the Devil Race's troops.
"It seems Young Master Ye is thoroughly prepared, to have deployed such a vast number of Earth Formations and Formations across this void. These Earth Formations and Formations give our side overwhelming geographical advantage," the Second Elder, still hidden in the shadows without revealing himself, couldn't help but sigh upon seeing so many Earth Formations and Formations.
"No wonder Earth Pattern Masters and Formation Masters have long been highly sought-after professions within the Chaotic Void Sea. The roles they can play are truly immense," the Second Elder murmured softly.
"Not good. That senior from the Fire Clan is in trouble," Ye Yunfei suddenly saw that Fire Clan Advanced Demigod beginning to fall at a disadvantage under the combined assault of two Demon Race Demigods.
The Devil Race had brought three Advanced Demigods in total: one was chasing Ye Yunfei, and the other two were jointly battling the Fire Clan Advanced Demigod. After fighting for so long, the Fire Clan Advanced Demigod finally began to falter a bit.
Although one of the two Devil Race Advanced Demigods was injured, after all, there were two of them.
*Swoosh!*
Ye Yunfei's figure flashed as he swiftly closed in, unleashing Soul Sword, Soul Force Star Technique, Formless Heart Sword, and Heart Force Lock—four secret techniques—attacking one of the Devil Race Advanced Demigods. Simultaneously, he executed Myriad Swords Return to One Great Art and Heavenly Dao Palm against the other Advanced Demigod.
Moreover, Ye Yunfei also took out a large black bow, rapidly shooting one blood-red arrow after another.
With Ye Yunfei's help, that Fire Clan Advanced Demigod instantly felt much more at ease.
"Senior, I'm here to assist you," Ye Yunfei shouted.
Since these Fire Clan Demigods had come to help him, Ye Yunfei didn't want anything to happen to them. Therefore, throughout the process, he had been concerned for their safety.
"Young Master Ye, I should still be able to hold on for a while longer. You'd best seize the opportunity to kill more of the Devil Race's main forces, weakening their overall strength; that would be even more advantageous for us. For example, you could kill more Demon Race Demigods and Heavenly Immortals," that Fire Clan Demigod retreated over a dozen steps, taking out several fiery-red Demigod Pills and swallowing them all, instantly replenishing a portion of his energy consumption before transmitting his voice to Ye Yunfei.
"Senior, rest assured. I know what to do," Ye Yunfei nodded.
However, just as Ye Yunfei prepared to act and slay more of the Devil Race's main forces…
"So monstrously talented at such a young age. Truly worthy of being a place where numerous ancient deities emerged in times past," a heavy sigh resounded.
This sigh was relatively soft at first, but each subsequent word grew heavier. By the last few words, it was as if the heavens were roaring mightily, deafening and shaking everyone's Soul Bodies, causing them to sway unsteadily.
*Rumble…*
A terrifying pressure of devilish might rolled forth, causing Ye Yunfei's figure to stiffen as if dozens of invisible divine mountains had descended together, pressing down on his body.
"That Devil Race's Perfected Demigod is finally making his move," Ye Yunfei was inwardly startled and immediately stomped his foot.
*Boom… Boom…*
Earth Formations and Formations rapidly converged, densely packing around Ye Yunfei.
"Everyone, retreat immediately!" Ye Yunfei immediately issued an order to his own forces.
Ye Yunfei understood that if a Perfected Demigod struck with full force, the lethality would undoubtedly be horrifying. A large portion of the Demigods and Heavenly Immortals on his side would likely be instantly killed.
Then, everyone saw a tall figure from the Devil Race appear. This was a Devil Race elder, his devilish body powerfully built, surging with terrifying devilish energy. Innumerable strands of devil path laws floated around him like numerous ribbons, faintly forming a domain. Within the scope of this domain, this Devil Race elder was the absolute sovereign!
"Young man, you are truly monstrously talented—not just currently, but even in ancient times, few young geniuses within the Chaotic Void Sea could compare with you. Unfortunately, you shouldn't have provoked our Devil Race. Provoking our Devil Race means you must die," that Devil Race elder said slowly as he walked step by step forward. Wherever he went, the Earth Formations and Formations ahead continuously shattered.
"This fellow is powerful," Ye Yunfei's expression grew extremely grave.
"You are no match for this guy. Luckily, the Fire Clan's Second Elder has come to help. Otherwise, just this Devil Race Perfected Demigod alone could crush the entire Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds," Hun Lao couldn't help but sigh.
"That's only natural. Perfected Demigods are among the top experts within the Chaotic Void Sea. It's not surprising they could crush the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds," Ye Yunfei said helplessly.
"Young Master Ye, be careful! This fellow is a Perfected Demigod!"
Demigods like Gan Changfeng stopped fighting at this moment, gathering behind Ye Yunfei, expressions wary.
The Fire Clan's Demigods all ceased combat as well, returning to Ye Yunfei's side.
Although the Demon Race Demigods wanted to entangle Ye Yunfei's Demigods and prevent their retreat, Ye Yunfei activated Earth Formations and Formations, aiding all his own Demigods in safely withdrawing.
*Bang! Bang! Bang!…*
As that Devil Race Perfected Demigod continuously walked forward, Earth Formations and Formations one after another were shaken apart by his energy aura, exploding into countless fragments that filled the sky.
Everyone was intimidated by the momentum of this Devil Race Perfected Demigod!
"Young man, you have killed so many of my Devil Race's Demigods. For our Devil Race, this is a huge loss. Therefore, you must pay the price. I will personally act to erase everything in this world related to you," the Devil Race Perfected Demigod said slowly as he closed in on Ye Yunfei step by step.
The closer he got, the more terrifying the pressure Ye Yunfei felt.
The other Demon Race Demigods followed behind this Perfected Demigod, each one emitting overwhelming murderous intent. In the previous battle, the Devil Race side had suffered relatively heavy losses—at least four or five Demigods and a large number of Heavenly Immortals had perished! Now, each of these Demon Race Demigods harbored overwhelming hatred in their hearts, craving vengeance.
"Do you truly believe you can arbitrarily decide life and death for others? While I'm here, you can accomplish nothing," an elder exuding intense fiery energy abruptly appeared beside Ye Yunfei, staring at the Devil Race Perfected Demigod as he said calmly.
The Fire Clan's Second Elder had finally revealed himself!
"You… are a Fire Clan expert?"
That Devil Race Perfected Demigod abruptly halted, his expression shifting slightly as his gaze locked onto the Second Elder. Somewhat astonished, he asked, "Correct. I am of the Fire Clan," the Second Elder replied calmly.
*Rumble…*
Vast fiery energy erupted from within the Second Elder's body, countering the Devil Race Perfected Demigod's suppression of Ye Yunfei, instantly making Ye Yunfei feel much lighter.
"Why is the Fire Clan helping the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds? Why make enemies of our Devil Race?" the Devil Race Perfected Demigod inquired.
Not long ago, within the Fire Realm, the Fire Clan suddenly emerged, spreading news that shook the entire Chaotic Void Sea. However, due to the Fire Clan's somewhat low-key nature and scarce interaction with other major powers, everyone's understanding of them wasn't deep. In people's minds, the Fire Clan was a relatively mysterious race.
"Very simple. Young Master Ye is a benefactor of our Fire Clan. Whoever troubles Young Master Ye is an enemy of our Fire Clan," the Second Elder stated coolly.
"That kid… is a benefactor of your Fire Clan?" The Devil Race Perfected Demigod seemed unconvinced.
"Correct. Young Master Ye is indeed a benefactor of our Fire Clan. You needn't doubt this," the Second Elder answered lightly.
"So it seems your Fire Clan is determined to oppose our Devil Race?" The Devil Race Perfected Demigod asked coldly.
"If your Devil Race insists on being an enemy to Young Master Ye, then our Fire Clan has no choice but to oppose your Devil Race. It depends on how your Devil Race chooses," the Second Elder responded.
"Then there's nothing more to say. To think that a newly emerged race doesn't hold our Devil Race in any regard at all. Is it because our Devil Race hasn't shown its fangs for too long? Your Fire Clan's protection of this brat surnamed Ye—you'll soon regret it," that Devil Race Perfected Demigod said angrily.
"Enough talk. If you want to fight, then fight," the Second Elder seemed somewhat impatient, speaking curtly.
"Very well, let's fight then," the Devil Race Perfected Demigod stated.
As they spoke, both Perfected Demigods took a step forward, preparing for battle.
However, right at this moment…
"The Fire Clan, a race that has just emerged, acting so ostentatious and eager to make enemies of major powers like us?"
A cold voice suddenly rang out from afar.
"Not good! Another Perfected Demigod-level expert has arrived!" Hun Lao exclaimed in alarm.
In the distant Chaotic Void, black mists soared toward the heavens. Then, everyone saw a tall, dark figure cutting through the sky, arriving before them in an instant.
