Facing the attacks from the two Advanced Demigods, Ye Yunfei remained unflustered. With a thought, a Soul Sword materialized within his Soul Sea and shot forward with a howl to block the black pagoda.
The black pagoda emanated vast Soul Power energy, its might terrifying, but the Soul Sword was also an exceptionally powerful soul force treasure. Coupled with Ye Yunfei's formidable Soul Power, it was at least as strong as, if not stronger than, the black pagoda.
With a *clang*, the Soul Sword intercepted the black pagoda. Simultaneously, Ye Yunfei released two Soul Force Planets, sending them hurtling toward the Advanced Demigod who had conjured the pagoda.
Both Soul Force Planets were condensed from Soul Power energy and Soul Force laws, moving far faster than most soul force treasures. In an instant, they rushed into that Advanced Demigod's Soul Sea to attack his Soul Body.
"What is this?"
The Advanced Demigod was startled to see two gigantic planets suddenly invade his Soul Sea. Over a dozen soul force treasures materialized within his Soul Sea to protect his Soul Body.
While unleashing the Soul Force Planets, Ye Yunfei also employed Mind Force Chains and the Invisible Heart Sword, both targeting the Advanced Demigod's physical body.
"Not long ago, I trained in a new heart gate martial skill called the Heart Demon Bell. I wonder how powerful it is; I shall now test its efficacy," Ye Yunfei thought to himself.
With his Mind Force energy levels rising ever higher, Ye Yunfei was no longer satisfied with mastering only two Mind Force techniques. During his recent seclusion, he had trained in this skill called the Heart Demon Bell, specifically designed to harass and attack an opponent's Soul Body.
Since Mind Force energy could not be perceived in advance and was exceedingly difficult to defend against, using the Heart Demon Bell against an enemy's Soul Body often left them with no recourse but to endure the assault directly with their Soul Body.
Ye Yunfei activated the Heart Demon Bell.
The next moment, a bizarrely-shaped yellow bell manifested within that Advanced Demigod's Soul Sea. With a *dong!* it released rolling waves of sonic energy that spread toward his Soul Body.
"What is this now?"
Already contending with the attacks of the Soul Force Planets, Mind Force Chains, and the Invisible Heart Sword, the Advanced Demigod was startled once more by the sudden appearance of this eerie yellow bell. It could be said Ye Yunfei's barrage struck so swiftly he caught him completely off guard and left him in disarray.
While attacking this Advanced Demigod, Ye Yunfei also acted against the other one.
He raised a palm and struck upward, executing a Heaven's Way Palm infused with six Great Dao Laws. A giant palm shot upwards with a roar, the six Great Dao Laws transforming into a dense network of law chains shimmering upon its surface before further morphing into various scenes: suns, moons, stars, mountains, rivers, the earth, flowers, trees, flora, fauna, and beings of all different races, their myriad images intertwining in a bizarre spectacle.
*Boom...* The attacks of both sides violently collided. The colossal energy hand sent by the Advanced Demigod was directly shattered.
"How is this possible?"
Both Advanced Demigods were utterly astonished that Ye Yunfei had not taken a single step back facing their combined assault.
"Again!" Ye Yunfei took a step forward and punched out.
*Rumble...*
A surge of powerful fist force crushed forward. As Ye Yunfei's fist advanced, the space ahead immediately transformed into a bizarre scene: one side turning into pitch-black night, the other into bright daylight with a blazing sun under a clear sky.
Simultaneously, a black-and-white Yin-Yang diagram slowly rose behind Ye Yunfei's back, spinning rapidly as if to cleave heaven and earth. The two different scenes and the two distinct conceptual states startled the Advanced Demigods.
"That seems to be... Yin-Yang Laws!" one of them exclaimed in shock, both taking a step back.
Facing the Yin-Yang Divine Fist unleashed by Ye Yunfei, the two Advanced Demigods dared not meet it head-on. They simultaneously summoned several high-level Demigod-tier treasures, activating them all to meet Ye Yunfei's advancing fist.
*Clang! Clang! Clang!...* Wherever Ye Yunfei's fist went, it sent one Advanced Demigod treasure after another flying. Ye Yunfei's physical body had long since fused with a vast number of Demigod-tier treasures, even Perfect Demigod-level ones. He naturally held these Advanced Demigod treasures in no regard.
"Brat, do you think we fear you?" Facing Ye Yunfei's proactive attack, both Advanced Demigods were furious. The one whose Soul Body was under assault mobilized all the Soul Power energy within his Soul Sea and over a dozen soul force treasures, barely managing to fend off Ye Yunfei's various attacks on his Soul Body, albeit appearing quite ragged, his face paling with a mix of shock and rage as he roared.
With a *shing*, a silver spear continuously enlarged as it shot toward Ye Yunfei.
The silver spear released dense clusters of silvery radiance. This radiance possessed a peculiar energy that interwove to form a magnetic field. This field was incredibly potent; everything within it, including space, time, energy, and laws, fell under its control.
Sensing the magnetic field generated by the silver spear, Ye Yunfei felt a flicker of surprise. He executed the Myriad Swords Return to One Technique, slashing out over a dozen thick sword beams to collide with the magnetic field.
*Clang! Clang! Clang!...* Loud metallic clashes rang out one after another. The sword beams Ye Yunfei unleashed were all shredded to pieces by the silver magnetic field.
However, after shredding the dozen or so thick sword beams, the energy of the silver field seemed to have been drastically depleted. It wavered unsteadily, becoming unstable.
During this period, Ye Yunfei had continuously contemplated the Myriad Swords Return to One Technique, his sword path attainment constantly improving. The sword arts he could now display were naturally more powerful.
"Break!" Ye Yunfei again unleashed the Yin-Yang Divine Fist.
A bizarre scene once more unfolded in the space ahead. One side became a sea of roaring flames, transforming into a vast ocean of fire. The other side became a world of ice and snow, thousands of miles frozen solid, with chunks of black profound ice emanating waves of bone-chilling cold. Ye Yunfei's fist continuously expanded, propelling these two different, extreme visions forward.
*Boom!* Ye Yunfei's fist collided with the silver spear, immediately bending it backward.
"We attack together!" The expressions of the two Advanced Demigods from the Myriad Methods Merchant House turned ugly. They never imagined this unknown brat's strength was so formidable.
Simultaneously battling two Advanced Demigods, he had not only held the upper hand but forced them into such a sorry state, making them feel utterly aggrieved.
"Boy, although your strength is indeed considerable, you will still die today!" One Advanced Demigod took the initiative. With a roar, twelve black iron pillars shot out from within his body. Arranged in specific positions, they formed a sky-piercing formation with intense baleful aura. The moment they appeared, they sealed a region of space. Then, all twelve pillars began to move rapidly, rolling towards Ye Yunfei.
"Be careful! These black iron pillars possess terrifying spatial sealing energy. I'm uncertain what level of treasure they are!" Hun Lao suddenly warned.
Hun Lao was proficient in spatial energy. For a spatial treasure to give even him pause indicated the fearsome nature of these twelve black pillars.
Ye Yunfei's Soul Power perception swept over the twelve black iron pillars. He realized they formed a highly sophisticated anti-space formation, sealing off a section of space as if creating a small isolated realm.
Within the space delineated by the twelve pillars, Ye Yunfei saw twelve towering black figures manifest. Each was immensely tall, reaching for the sky, holding different weapons and emanating dense, rolling baleful aura.
"I sense these twelve black iron pillars must be forged from some exceptionally precious material. Each pillar is inscribed with a large number of sophisticated restrictive runes—so advanced I'm not certain I'd dare charge through recklessly. Be careful," the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm cautioned.
"Then I won't meet force with force," Ye Yunfei said, taking a step back.
Forces that gave both Hun Lao and the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm pause were undoubtedly terrifying.
*Boom...* The twelve black iron pillars arranged themselves into a peculiar formation and rumbled toward Ye Yunfei, causing the surrounding space to seethe and boil.
"Boy, prepare to die!" The other Advanced Demigod launched a fierce attack. Pointing a finger, the silver spear split into nine, transforming into nine silver dragons that roared and soared across the sky, pouncing at Ye Yunfei.
These nine silver dragons emanated dense silvery light, interweaving into nine magnetic fields. Having channeled the nine dragons to form these nine fields, the Advanced Demigod's face paled; employing this technique consumed tremendous energy.
The combined attacks of the two Advanced Demigods rolled in, shaking the heavens. In their bid to defeat Ye Yunfei, both were giving their all, unleashing their true killing moves regardless of cost or immense energy expenditure.
Facing the furious onslaught, Ye Yunfei chose not to confront them head-on.
He took a step back and suddenly transformed into three identical Ye Yunfeis, retreating in three different directions. These three Ye Yunfeis had auras identical to his true body, making it impossible to distinguish which was the original.
This was the Seamless Phantasm Technique he had mastered recently!
The two Advanced Demigods stared dumbfounded at the three identical figures, unsure which one to attack.
"Destroy them all!" Hesitating for only a split second, one of them shouted.
*Rumble...* The savage attacks of the two Advanced Demigods swept through, blasting all three Ye Yunfeis to pieces. Especially the twelve black iron pillars that howled past, obliterating everything in their path.
The attacks tore apart the space occupied by the three figures, creating three massive spatial black holes with endless fragments of time and space churning wildly.
"Excellent!" Both Advanced Demigods were overjoyed.
Yet, in the next instant, their expressions changed simultaneously.
For they once again sensed Ye Yunfei's aura—directly behind them.
"Die!" Ye Yunfei roared, unleashing his Soul Sword, Mind Force Chains, Invisible Heart Sword, Heart Demon Bell, and Soul Force Planets in a concentrated assault on one Advanced Demigod.
Under this barrage of attacks, the Advanced Demigod felt as if he had fallen into a quagmire, his movements slowing noticeably. His Soul Body sensed an unprecedented crisis.
Facing the Invisible Heart Sword and the Heart Demon Bell in particular left him utterly at a loss for how to effectively defend. The Heart Demon Bell tolled incessantly within his Soul Sea, its grand sound waves immediately enveloping his Soul Body in a continuous assault.
"This feels like a Mind Force attack... How can that be? Could this be a Mind Force treasure?" the Advanced Demigod thought, horrified and furious.
Mind Force was a relatively niche and difficult energy to cultivate. Mind Force treasures were even rarer, requiring mastery of Mind Force for their creation—a level of expertise virtually extinct in this era. Unless one belonged to ancient heart gate traditions with dedicated practitioners. Ordinary cultivators facing a Mind Force treasure had no defense; it was practically unsolvable. Thus, believing the strange bell in his Soul Sea to be a Mind Force treasure, his face blanched instantly.
*Boom...* As this Advanced Demigod was suppressed by Ye Yunfei's various techniques, Ye Yunfei attacked him simultaneously with his left hand unleashing the Myriad Swords Return to One Technique and his right hand executing the Yin-Yang Divine Fist.
"Ah...!" The Demigod's expression contorted with terror and extreme rage as he roared, unleashing a torrential surge of energy from his body.
The silver spear transformed into a silver dragon pouncing at Ye Yunfei while over ten Advanced Demigod treasures shot out from his body, activating together and blasting towards Ye Yunfei.
Ye Yunfei neither dodged nor avoided them, stepping forward instead.
*Clang! Clang! Clang!...* Several of the treasures struck his body, sending showers of sparks flying. Then, Ye Yunfei's fist punched through the Advanced Demigod's shoulder, instantly exploding half of his torso.
*Clang! Clang! Clang!...* The silver spear parried all the sword beams unleashed by Ye Yunfei's Myriad Swords technique, shattering one thick blade after another.
In this clash, Ye Yunfei remained unscathed, as his physical body was more than capable of withstanding the impact of these Advanced Demigod treasures.
The entire exchange happened in the blink of an eye.
"Save me!" The half-exploded Advanced Demigod, sensing Ye Yunfei's murderous killing intent, turned and fled in panic, shouting for aid.
"It's too late!" Ye Yunfei shouted, giving chase.
"Brat, don't get cocky!" The other Advanced Demigod propelled the twelve black iron pillars forward in a rolling charge.
Ye Yunfei took a step, activating the Seamless Phantasm Technique once more. Three Ye Yunfeis appeared simultaneously.
However, these three were all phantasmal clones, possessing an identical aura to deceive the enemy.
Ye Yunfei's true body had stealthily closed in behind the fleeing Advanced Demigod and now manifested, unleashing the Yin-Yang Divine Fist in a powerful strike. The space before him split into two: one side pitch-black night, the other blazing sunlight under a clear sky. The violent force tore the remaining half of the Demigod's body to shreds, the devastating energy ravaging a large area of space into broken fragments.
"This Yin-Yang Divine Fist possesses such a unique conceptual force; its destructive power is truly immense. Yin and Yang exploding simultaneously seems capable of annihilating all things!" Hun Lao couldn't help but remark in amazement.
"Interesting. The legacy of the Yin-Yang Sage from our era actually fell into the hands of this brat. That indicates excellent fortune; he must have stumbled upon the protection and legacies left by some deity from our time. Excellent. Once I capture him, all his belongings shall be mine."
Far away, within the Myriad Methods Merchant House encampment, a man who had been observing Ye Yunfei the whole time revealed a strange smile as he spoke.
