All the Watchers immediately fixed their gazes upon Ye Yunfei.
Naturally, they all understood why the leading Watcher captain was so furious with him. If Ye Yunfei hadn't entangled him earlier, he might have successfully disrupted the Xiaoliang Temple Master's heavenly tribulation.
Furthermore, the combat prowess Ye Yunfei displayed moments ago made these Watchers deeply wary.
Not just the ordinary Watchers—even the high-level opponents at the Guardian Captain level were not untouchable by Ye Yunfei, causing considerable pressure for the Watchers.
Thus, these Watchers were intent on eliminating Ye Yunfei, seeing him as a threat.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
Watchers charged towards Ye Yunfei at full speed, murderous intent thick in the air.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Various magical treasures were continuously activated and bombarded Ye Yunfei from all directions.
"Run! Quick!
No matter how strong you are, you can't possibly fight against so many Watchers.
Every one of these guys is formidable. If they surround us, even I won't be able to help us escape," Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm hurriedly shouted at Ye Yunfei.
"Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm and I will stabilize this space to prevent them from sealing it. You make your escape swiftly!" Hun Lao advised Ye Yunfei.
"I'll bewilder them!" Hu Miao chimed in.
Even Huang Shang was preparing to take action.
At that moment, a figure in the distance spoke up sternly.
"All Restorers, hear my command! Protect our comrade with your full strength! We are a team—we must never let any teammate fall behind or fall into danger."
This figure was a top expert among the Restorers, a warrior whose strength was on par with the enemy's Guardian Captain.
Immediately, all Restorers who were considering retreat halted their movements.
"Then let's fight another round," the figure declared. Taking a step forward, he traversed space, rushing towards Ye Yunfei's location.
"Members of Xiaoliang Temple, hear me! Continue battling these vile Watchers! Even if the last of us Xiaoliang disciples falls, we shall not retreat!" a Xiaoliang Temple expert proclaimed loudly.
While their casualties in the previous battle were severe—nearly half their forces lost—the survivors now stirred, fighting spirit ablaze, none intending to back down.
Thus, a large group of Restorers and Xiaoliang Temple members converged on Ye Yunfei's position, readying for combat.
"Hmm, these fellows aren't bad, not abandoning us after all," seeing this, Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm breathed a sigh of relief.
"Do not worry. We Restorers are not easily bullied," a voice transmitted as a figure swiftly approached Ye Yunfei.
"Thank you, senior," Ye Yunfei responded with gratitude.
"Let's savor a good fight!" the Restorer expert arrived beside Ye Yunfei and stared coldly at the Guardian Captain who had given the order to kill Ye Yunfei.
Rumble…
No sooner had he spoken than this figure acted decisively, soaring into the air and charging at that Guardian Captain.
Boom! Boom!
A fierce battle erupted between the two powerful fighters, their violent combat energy erupting in waves, forcing everyone nearby to continually retreat.
"You wish so fervently to kill me, while I, too, harbor the same desire towards you," Ye Yunfei said coldly.
Whoosh!
Ye Yunfei suddenly activated the Seamless Phantasm Technique. Three identical copies of Ye Yunfei appeared, each charging at a different Watcher.
Of course, these three were all phantasm-doppelgangers. Ye Yunfei's true body had stealthily approached a Watcher and suddenly materialized, lashing out with a punch.
Titan God's Divine Fist!
A fist brimming with terrifying power unleashed itself. Simultaneously, Ye Yunfei employed Heart Force martial arts and Soul Force martial arts, pressuring the Watcher's Soul Body.
Boom, boom…
Six defensive treasures emerged from the Watcher's body, activated simultaneously to counter Ye Yunfei's assault.
Within his soul sea, several Soul-Power-class treasures also appeared to protect his Soul Body.
It must be said, these Watchers seemed quite wealthy; each possessed numerous treasures, and the strategic use of these treasures in battle proved highly effective.
Crunch, crunch, crunch…
Ye Yunfei's fist, overwhelmingly fierce, shattered all six treasures with one blow, for these were merely Demigod-level treasures, insignificant before the quality and strength of his physical body.
Boom…
A giant hand materialized above the Watcher's head, imbued with eight great Dao laws, descending with immense momentum.
At the same time, a flower bud exuding an uncanny aura bloomed slowly within the Watcher's soul sea.
Gasp…
The Watcher was horrified to find his Soul Power rapidly being drained by this mysterious flower.
"Die!" Ye Yunfei roared. Both fists lashed out—the left executing Titan God's Divine Fist, the right, Yin-Yang God Fist—while his flying sword shot upward from his head before swirling down in a slicing attack.
Additionally, fifteen Soul Power planets plunged into the Watcher's soul sea, assaulting his Soul Body.
Under Ye Yunfei's tempestuous assault, the Watcher finally broke. He let out a shriek, turned, and tried to flee.
But Ye Yunfei's killing intent was too potent. How could he let him escape?
Seeing this, other nearby Watchers sought to aid, but many Restorers encircled Ye Yunfei, blocking them.
*Thud!* Ye Yunfei's fist pushed horizontally, directly blasting the Watcher's physical body into gory chunks.
Aaaah…
Protected by five Soul-Power-class treasures, the Watcher's Soul Body surprisingly broke through the siege, forcing an escape. It fled, screaming in agony as it went.
Though it escaped, the Soul Body was severely wounded.
"Pity," Ye Yunfei thought silently.
"These Watchers truly are formidable, none of them ordinary," Hun Lao also remarked with a sigh.
"Most likely, these Watchers, like us Restorers, have been meticulously selected—true elites chosen from every world-cluster and world," Ye Yunfei speculated after a moment.
"You're saying… these Watchers are also chosen, picked from the world-clusters and worlds within the Void Sea?" Hun Lao was somewhat surprised.
"I believe it is highly likely," Ye Yunfei nodded.
"But… if these Watchers are indeed from the Void Sea, why would they act against it? To prevent the beings of this sea from achieving Deityhood… is that not opposing the entire Chaotic Void Sea itself?" Hun Lao was puzzled.
"Given enough benefit, one could be enticed into opposing this Void Sea," Ye Yunfei replied.
"True. Throughout the ages, wealth stirs human hearts. Given sufficient temptation, many will choose to oppose this Void Sea," Hun Lao nodded.
Whoosh!
Even while conversing with Hun Lao, Ye Yunfei had already surged towards another nearby Watcher.
"Perfect timing!" This Watcher was initially startled upon seeing Ye Yunfei charging at him, then he roared and met the attack head-on.
The Watcher's fighting strength was admirable; each strike carried fierce power.
His palms were as hard as treasure, evidently tempered through some special method. They reached for Ye Yunfei, fingers radiating divine light, crystal-clear.
Clang! Clang!
Ye Yunfei's flying sword was blocked again and again by those bare palms, sparks flying.
Note that Ye Yunfei's flying sword was a genuine Deity-level treasure, incredibly sharp. Yet the Watcher blocked it bare-handed.
"I see your fleshly body is also tempered well," Ye Yunfei said, lashing out with Titan God's Divine Fist. His fist continuously enlarged, clashing against the Watcher's palm.
Boom, boom, boom…
Ye Yunfei unleashed Titan God's Divine Fist alternately with both fists, strikes flashing like lightning, every blow colliding against the opponent's palm.
"Impossible… Your fleshly body is harder than my palms!" After a few breaths, the Watcher was astonished to find his palms had become red and swollen, the pain excruciating.
"Again!" Roused, Ye Yunfei pressed his advantage purely with physical might. Both fists flashed alternately like lightning.
Boom, boom…
Each punch held terrifying physical force, one after another, creating formidable pressure. The speed of Ye Yunfei's punches was too great; the Watcher felt he could scarcely breathe.
A moment later—*Thud!*
Ye Yunfei's fist finally struck the Watcher's torso, instantly blowing half of it apart.
Aaaah…
Shrieking in pain, the Watcher waved a hand, tossing out five or six treasures, activating them to block Ye Yunfei, then turned to flee.
"Running where?" Ye Yunfei gave close chase, punching again, shattering the Watcher's remaining half.
Aaaah…
In the end, this Watcher also managed to escape with his Soul Body in tow.
"Regrettable. Another soul has slipped away," Ye Yunfei was deeply disappointed. These Watchers were strong; their Soul Bodies and Soul Power were quite potent. Refining them would be highly beneficial. Unfortunately, the Soul Bodies of two Watchers had slipped away.
This also demonstrated that each Watcher was truly exceptional and exceedingly difficult to kill.
"Damn! That brat is too powerful, and too vicious!" The Guardian Captain who had given the kill order earlier was filled with rage seeing this, wishing he could rush over immediately to kill Ye Yunfei. Yet he was hindered by a powerful Restorer expert and could not personally deal with Ye Yunfei.
"We withdraw!" After deliberation, the Guardian Captain finally gave the command, leading the Watchers in retreat.
He knew that continuing the fight would not only harm Ye Yunfei but would likely see more Watchers lost.
Additionally, the primary mission of the Watchers was to deal with high-level experts attempting divine tribulations, not Ye Yunfei.
If they sacrificed a group of Watchers fighting Ye Yunfei, it would be more loss than gain.
With their formidable strength, the Watchers, working in concert, retreated at full speed and were gone in moments.
"Comrades, our mission for this occasion is successfully completed. Now, we too shall withdraw," a leader on the Restorers' side also gave the retreat order.
Activating a spatial transportation talisman, Ye Yunfei directly departed the vicinity.
After transporting for a while, Ye Yunfei retrieved an airship, boarded it, and continued his journey back towards the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds.
Previously, the middle-aged man once told Ye Yunfei he could cultivate within that mysterious elder's space or return to his own home to train.
That spatial region's energy and laws were indeed advanced, an excellent place for cultivation.
Nevertheless, Ye Yunfei intended to return to the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds first.
"Being a Restorer, one is indeed free. When there's a mission, one participates; when there is no mission, one can move about freely.
Also, support in techniques and resources is available," Hun Lao chuckled.
"There is great freedom, true. But when there is a mission, one gambles with life. Fighting those Watchers is fraught with peril," Ye Yunfei remarked.
"Yes indeed. In the previous fight alone, I saw Restorers perish," Hun Lao nodded.
"I will return to the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds for a time first. Then, I'll go to that senior's place to undergo secluded training, truly enhancing my strength.
Those Watchers are too strong, especially the Guardian Captain-level experts—against them I stand no chance.
If I encounter them again, the outcome remains grim.
I must elevate my power!" Ye Yunfei said.
"Agreed.
Those Guardian Captains are formidable.
Also, the Watchers harbor particularly deep enmity towards you. They tried concentrating strength against you just now. When you encounter them again, perhaps they will single you out for elimination," Hun Lao said.
"Either way, I must enhance my power," Ye Yunfei nodded.
"You are at the Advanced Demigod realm. Focus on pushing your cultivation to become a fully-ripened, Nine-Nine Return to the Original True Deity-level Demigod, upon which you may face the heavenly tribulation.
The new Deity age has already begun. It's time to contemplate advancing, striving to become a Deity sooner.
Should a group of Deities emerge in the Chaotic Void Sea, it will become their dominion. Then, you Demigods would count for naught before a true Deity," Hun Lao counseled.
"Yes.
Within the Age of Deities, those who fail to ascend remain but ants," Ye Yunfei wholly agreed with Hun Lao's assessment.
The airship traveled swiftly and soon returned within the domain of the Three Thousand Major and Minor Worlds.
As Ye Yunfei's departure on this venture was relatively brief, not many changes had taken place within.
Ye Yunfei first returned to the Alliance Army headquarters, gathering the higher echelon for a meeting, deliberating on future development directions for the Alliance Army, along with discussing the news and circumstances pervading the Chaotic Void Sea.
Then Ye Yunfei returned to the Tianpo World, entering the small mountain village where Mister Liu resided, spending a few days with his parents.
There was still no news from Xiao Fei.
Afterwards, Ye Yunfei came to the world of Samsara within the Main World.
He was astounded to find many newly emerged Demigods born within the Palace of Samsara.
Presently, Samsara Palace housed nearly ten Demigod-level experts!
Its development speed left Ye Yunfei utterly dumbfounded.
