Soon, under the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm's lead, they arrived in front of a palace that did not look particularly impressive at first glance.
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm transformed into a streak of golden light and violently slammed into the palace doors. With a resounding *clang*, the doors burst open.
The interior of the palace was empty, containing nothing. However, the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm seemed to have the whole plan well in mind. It directly charged to the center of the hall and punched the floor with its fist.
The ground began to ripple like water waves, and then with a *thump*, something invisible was shattered. Subsequently, an entrance to an underground passage appeared.
"This is the entrance to a treasury. There should be quite a few good things stored down there," the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm said, turning back to Ye Yunfei before taking the lead and charging into the underground entrance.
Ye Yunfei knew that the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm Clan was proficient in spatial energy and laws, able to traverse most spaces in the world freely. So, he wasn't worried about any danger.
Ye Yunfei, Cui Hong, and Xiao Xiao followed the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm and soon arrived deep beneath the palace, inside a bunker.
"This truly is a treasure vault!
There are piles of divine crystals, pills, magic treasures, medicinal herbs, and all sorts of other natural treasures. Moreover, the vast majority are at the Deity level.
Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm, your nose is too keen. You actually managed to find this treasure vault hidden so deep underground," Hu Miao said excitedly while busily collecting various treasures.
"What do you mean 'keen nose'? Do you think I'm a dog?
This is an innate racial talent of our Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm Clan. We can keenly perceive which location has the most concentrated energy essence. And places with the most concentrated energy essence often contain more treasures," the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm retorted.
Moments later, all the treasures stored in the vault were thoroughly looted by Ye Yunfei and his group. Then, everyone came up from the bunker and returned to the surface.
"So you three are here! I just saw you three entering the city and was about to look for you, but you delivered yourselves right to me!
Seems like you must have gotten some treasures, eh? Perfect. Once I kill you three, everything on you will belong to us of the Guardian Faction."
Just as Ye Yunfei, Cui Hong, and Xiao Xiao walked out through the palace's main gate, over a dozen Deities immediately surrounded them, all belonging to the Guardian Faction.
"Let's see who will help you three now! Your day of reckoning has come!" sneered the leader, an Intermediate Void God.
"You lot think you can kill us? How utterly overconfident!" Xiao Xiao, now an Intermediate Void God himself, stepped forward fearlessly, speaking up.
Then, above Xiao Xiao's head, a massive divine flower appeared. Flowers of all kinds fluttered down like rain, continuously manifesting to form a sea of blossoms that whistled as it crashed towards the speaking Intermediate Void God.
"How is this possible? Not long ago, you were only a Primary Void God. Now you've actually broken through to become an Intermediate Void God?" Only then did that Intermediate Void God notice Xiao Xiao's new level.
"Everyone, attack! Kill these three as fast as possible! Don't delay our exploration and treasure hunting. Remember, on this continent, not only is our physical body suppressed, but even the Divine Power energy within us is also suppressed. Our combat power is weakened for all of us. But we have superior numbers. Dealing with these three should be easy," the Guardian Faction's leading Intermediate Void God commanded.
However, just as he finished speaking, Ye Yunfei took a step and appeared right in front of him.
On this continent, everyone else was suppressed by the Law of Gravity, significantly affecting their strength. Only Ye Yunfei was minimally affected.
Moreover, after spending some time here, Ye Yunfei had already begun adapting to the continent's Law of Gravity.
In fact, one of Ye Yunfei's Soul Bodies, along with over a dozen Soul Power planets, had been constantly studying the Law of Gravity here. Vaguely, he had already begun gaining some understanding of it.
Therefore, Ye Yunfei believed his combat power here wouldn't be much weaker than usual.
"Today is not our death day; it's yours," Ye Yunfei said in a cold voice. As his words fell, with a loud *boom*, Ye Yunfei immediately acted. He threw a punch with his left fist, unleashing the Great Strength Divine Fist.
Ye Yunfei understood: within the Law of Gravity, greater physical strength conferred more advantage because the law seemed to suppress physical strength very little. Thus, the power of the Great Strength Divine Fist he was using now was almost comparable to its usual might.
"Ye Yunfei, I know your strength is decent, but I am an Intermediate Void God. Challenging me head-on like this is just too arrogant.
Arrogance invites calamity. Today, I'll make you understand that!" The Intermediate Void God neither dodged nor avoided. Instead, he also threw a punch to block Ye Yunfei's strike.
Under the influence of the Law of Gravity, he failed to sense immediately the terrifying physical strength contained within Ye Yunfei's fist.
*Bam!*
Their fists collided.
"How is this possible?" Instant horror appeared on the Intermediate Void God's face.
In the next moment, his fist, along with his entire arm, exploded directly into a bloody mist.
Then, Ye Yunfei's fist landed on his right shoulder, directly blasting his entire right half of the body into an explosion.
"Ha! This guy really has a death wish, daring to fight you in a gravity-suppressed area like this," Hun Lao couldn't help but laugh loudly.
"How… how is this possible? Ye Yunfei, your strength has increased this much?!" the now half-crippled Intermediate Void God of the Watchers screamed with a voice full of terror.
He was, after all, an Intermediate Void God! Yet, he just got half his body blown apart by a single punch!
This was an instant defeat—something utterly unbelievable!
"No… It's not that your strength increased! It's because on this continent… you're not suppressed by the Law of Gravity! How can that be?!" The next moment, the Intermediate Void God realized: Ye Yunfei's power wasn't amplified; he was just unaffected by the suppression.
"Senior Cui Hong, this guy not only has half his physical body crippled by me, but his Soul Body is also damaged. You finish him off. I'll handle the others," Ye Yunfei sent a mental message to Cui Hong after blasting the Intermediate Void God, then flashed towards the other Guardian Faction Deities.
"Good. Let me kill him. I've long disliked this fellow," Cui Hong replied, also flashing as he charged towards the half-crippled Intermediate Void God.
By then, Ye Yunfei had already moved in front of a Primary Void God.
This Primary Void God didn't even have the courage to face Ye Yunfei. He immediately turned to flee! But in this continent saturated with the Law of Gravity, how could his speed compare to Ye Yunfei's?
*Boom!*
Ye Yunfei caught up, his fist sweeping horizontally. He directly exploded that Primary Void God, even smashing his Soul Body into pieces.
Having consecutively refined the True Phoenix Divine Fire, the Star Mother Sand, and the Divine King Fruits during this period, Ye Yunfei's physical quality and strength had leaped dramatically. Now, he could easily shatter both the physical and Soul Bodies of a Primary Void God with one punch.
"Not good! This kid Ye Yunfei isn't suppressed by the Law of Gravity! On this continent, we're no match for him!
We must run! We'll settle the score with him once we leave this continent!" The other Guardian Faction Deities realized the situation had turned dire. They cried out in alarm one after another, then turned and fled.
"Thinking of running now? Too late!" Ye Yunfei laughed loudly.
He took a step and instantly closed in behind a fleeing Deity, delivering a punch.
*Boom!*
The Deity had no power to resist Ye Yunfei's Great Strength Divine Fist. His body exploded under the blow.
*Thud! Thud! Thud!*
Ye Yunfei suddenly leapt into the air, executing the Great Strength Shadowless Divine Leg technique. Three consecutive kicks, three gigantic soles of feet descended from the sky!
The Great Strength Shadowless Divine Leg combined with the terrifying weight of Ye Yunfei's own body produced a destructive and horrifying effect. Three Primary Deities of the Guardian Faction were each stomped into a bloody pulp, leaving behind three massive footprint craters in the ground.
Inside these three deep pits lay three smears of indistinct flesh and blood.
"All of you must die!" Seeing the remaining Guardian Faction Deities fleeing desperately, Ye Yunfei roared.
With a powerful push of his feet against the ground...
*Rumble…!*
The entire ground of the city shook violently from the force.
*Boom!*
Ye Yunfei shot up and arrived right above a fleeing Intermediate Void God's head. Then, utilizing the Great Strength Shadowless Divine Leg technique plus his own terrifying weight, a colossal sole of a foot whistled down from the heavens.
Pitifully, this Intermediate Void God, severely suppressed by the Law of Gravity on this continent, couldn't fully utilize his speed or strength. Unable to dodge, he let out a scream before being stomped by Ye Yunfei into an on-the-spot explosion.
"He is too strong!"
Witnessing Ye Yunfei's godly and awe-inspiring might, with nearly every punch and kick instantly exploding a Deity on the spot, Cui Hong, Xiao Xiao, and some other Deities passing by the vicinity were all dumbstruck.
"How is that possible? That kid seems to be only a Perfected Half-Deity. How can he possess such terrifying power?" someone couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
"Ye Yunfei! You little beast! You just wait! Our Guardian Faction will never let you go! Everyone and every force related to you will be implicated and utterly destroyed!" A Guardian Faction Deity who had already fled far away turned his head to look back, eyes bulging with fury as he roared viciously.
"You'd better worry about yourself first," Ye Yunfei gave a cold laugh, then pushed off with both feet.
*Boom!*
Like a cannonball shot from its barrel, he streaked towards that Guardian Faction Deity with extreme speed.
Ye Yunfei realized that on this continent saturated with the Law of Gravity, he actually felt like a fish in water.
"Damn it!" The Guardian Faction Deity who had shouted from afar saw Ye Yunfei charging towards him with such astonishing speed. He jumped in fright, hurriedly turned, and resumed fleeing. He began to regret having turned around to shout that threat.
