Something’s wrong! The enemy is simply too powerful!
Apart from being skilled in Soul Power attacks, he also seems to be launching attacks using Mental Force energy. We have no way to defend against it at all! If this continues, our Green Mountain Sect is doomed!”
Terrified, a few high-ranking members cried out in alarm.
“As long as the green hills endure, no worry about firewood lacking! Let's flee immediately!
Save who we can, or we'll all die here!”
One of the weakest and most severely injured elders—who also happened to be the most timid—turned and fled without a second thought.
But how could Ye Yunfei possibly let him escape?
Before the elder had fled very far, a dozen or so puppets wielding thick stone clubs suddenly appeared ahead, blocking his path. They swarmed him, launching a frenzied, all-out assault.
The Green Mountain Sect elder was already wounded, and now, facing more than ten puppets whose every move was a reckless, life-forgetting strike, he was quickly overwhelmed. Within just a few exchanges, he was severely injured by the barrage of thick stone clubs.
However, Ye Yunfei did not allow the puppets to destroy his physical body; he had other plans.
“Hehe, your Soul Body is mine now.”
An inky-black, gleaming Ghost Body appeared nearby, releasing a torrent of ghostly fog, preparing to devour the puppet's Soul Body.
“Huang Lao, don’t devour his Soul Body just yet. Let me do it.
I have a plan that requires the Soul Bodies of these Green Mountain Sect high-ranking members.”
Ye Yunfei quickly transmitted his thoughts.
“Very well.”
Huang Chang ceased his devouring immediately. Everything he did prioritized Ye Yunfei’s wishes, for he understood that the heights he had reached today were all granted by Ye Yunfei.
“Run! Everyone, flee now!”
By this point, all the Green Mountain Sect elders were already wounded by Ye Yunfei’s attacks. Faced with his Soul Force and Mental Force martial skills, they couldn’t mount any effective defense, especially since they had no idea how to guard against Mental Force attacks at all.
Though Kong Daquan, the sect leader, was the strongest among them, he was also Ye Yunfei’s primary target. Soon after, his Soul Body was swarmed and utterly devoured by over forty Soul Force stars.
Upon hearing the elders’ command, the ordinary Green Mountain Sect members had long since scattered in panic, fleeing desperately in all directions.
But soon, a large number of puppets wielding thick stone clubs appeared in the surrounding space, beginning to hunt down the Green Mountain Sect forces. Moreover, numerous formations continually materialized in the area, surrounding and trapping them, cutting off their escape routes.
Not long after, nearly half of the Green Mountain Sect members had been slain.
Ye Yunfei devoured the Soul Bodies of the other half.
After devouring these Green Mountain Sect Soul Bodies, Ye Yunfei preserved their intact forms.
To deal with Beidou Sect this time, Green Mountain Sect had committed almost its entire force—all its key elders and the vast majority of its members had come. Now, with them annihilated by Ye Yunfei, it was effectively the destruction of the entire Green Mountain Sect.
“The Green Mountain Sect high-ranking members are practically all dead. How about we head to their headquarters now and take all the sect’s wealth?
If we don’t go, someone else will eventually take it anyway.”
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm immediately suggested to Ye Yunfei.
“An excellent idea. I was just planning a trip to the Green Mountain Sect headquarters.
Let's go there now. A sect that takes pride in aligning itself with the Guardian Faction has no reason to continue existing.”
Ye Yunfei nodded in agreement upon hearing the suggestion.
Thus, Ye Yunfei immediately set off for the Green Mountain Sect headquarters.
Their headquarters was located within the Great Mysterious World Cluster.
In the Sixth Void, this was a relatively ordinary world cluster, characterized by its bustling activity with numerous worlds distributed within.
Upon entering the Great Mysterious World Cluster, Ye Yunfei quickly arrived at the Green Mountain World, where the sect’s headquarters was situated.
With a single palm strike, Ye Yunfei sent all the guards at the world’s entrance and exit points flying, then entered Green Mountain World. He released several hundred deity-level puppets and, in an extremely short time, completely secured control over the world.
Several dozen deities remained stationed at the headquarters, but Ye Yunfei subdued them all—rendering them immobile—with a few consecutive palm strikes. Then, he devoured all their Soul Bodies.
Ye Yunfei did not embark on a massacre. Instead, he sealed most of the Green Mountain Sect members, particularly the ordinary disciples.
After all, the decision to align with the Guardian Faction was primarily made by the sect’s high-ranking members and had little to do with these ordinary disciples.
Ye Yunfei dispatched several dozen deity-level puppets to guard the entry and exit points of Green Mountain World, prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving. Then, accompanied by Hu Miao, the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm, and a few others, he thoroughly plundered all the valuables within the world.
Although the overall strength of Green Mountain Sect was relatively weak, lacking the presence of any True God, it was still a sect with a fairly long heritage. The accumulation of various cultivation resources and treasures was quite substantial.
“Master, we've scored some modest spoils again!”
After thoroughly plundering Green Mountain World, Hu Miao said excitedly to Ye Yunfei.
“Indeed, we've reaped some modest spoils.”
Ye Yunfei replied with a smile.
“You've been in this Sixth Void for some time now. What are your plans going forward?”
Hun Lao suddenly asked Ye Yunfei.
“When I first came to the Sixth Void, I had two goals. The first was to travel to other voids, seeking opportunities for development and improvement. Fortunately, I came to the Sixth Void promptly. Entering the Yangming Secret Realm allowed for significant progress.
The second goal was to understand the situation regarding the Guardian Faction in other voids and to find ways to deal with them.
I sense that the Guardian Faction in the Sixth Void has already begun to act, aiming to completely dominate this void.
Next, I plan to conduct a thorough investigation to see which forces within the Sixth Void can be recruited to jointly oppose the Guardian Faction.
If possible, I intend to recruit a batch of forces and form a larger alliance to confront the Guardian Faction together.
Moreover, my target isn't just the Guardian Faction in the Sixth Void, but all Guardian Factions across all voids.
I also need to ascertain where the Guardian Faction's true headquarters is actually located.”
Ye Yunfei thought for a moment before speaking in response to Hun Lao’s question.
“In short, between myself and the Guardian Faction, as well as between the Eighth Void and the Guardian Faction, the situation is already one of life and death. I need to take the initiative; I cannot simply wait for the Guardian Faction to come deal with me.”
Ye Yunfei added.
“Indeed.
Taking initiative might increase your chances of success in the future.”
Hun Lao nodded in approval.
“There's also this: the Guardian Faction could return to the Eighth Void at any time. Should that happen, I must immediately rush back to the Eighth Void.
Before such a situation arises, I must quickly enhance my own strength and recruit as many forces as possible to build a larger alliance against the Guardian Faction.”
Ye Yunfei continued.
“Young Master Ye, the six of us brothers are about to break through.”
Just at that moment, Ye Yunfei suddenly received a voice transmission from the eldest brother of the Guanzhong Six Heroes.
The Guanzhong Six Heroes had been secluded in the Phantom Tower for cultivation, striving to break through their realms. Ye Yunfei had specially refined a batch of targeted Divine Pills for them, which had helped them achieve breakthrough conditions in a short time.
“Good. All of you, come out and prepare to undergo the Lightning Tribulation.”
Ye Yunfei scanned the energy states of the Guanzhong Six Heroes and found their internal energies in a turbulent state—a sure sign of impending breakthrough. He then teleported all six of them out.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Soon, vast Lightning Tribulations appeared above each member of the Guanzhong Six Heroes.
Ye Yunfei had them split up and find six different locations within Green Mountain World to undergo their tribulations.
He dispatched a large group of puppets to protect them, and also gave them some Divine Pills specifically designed to aid in tribulation survival.
The Lightning Tribulations for the Guanzhong Six Heroes proceeded smoothly. After enduring the trials of lightning, all six brothers successfully advanced their realms.
Originally, among the Guanzhong Six Heroes, three were Advanced Void Gods and three were Intermediate Void Gods. After their breakthrough, they now had three at the Perfected Void God level and three at the Advanced Void God level.
“Thank you, Young Master Ye!
If you hadn’t provided those Divine Pills, our six brothers definitely wouldn’t have broken through this quickly.”
After breaking through, the Guanzhong Six Heroes were very excited. They all gathered before Ye Yunfei and bowed respectfully.
“No need for such formalities. Take a look at these treasures. Choose some that suit you best.”
Ye Yunfei waved his hand, taking out a large pile of Void God-level treasures and placing them before the Guanzhong Six Heroes.
Seeing the densely packed heap of treasures, the six were thrilled.
These treasures Ye Yunfei produced all came from the two spatial rings left by Yangming King. Each piece was of excellent quality and possessed far greater power than ordinary artifacts of the same level.
“Take plenty. It's better to have them on hand for when the need arises.”
Ye Yunfei said.
The Guanzhong Six Heroes began selecting immediately and eventually each chose over a dozen treasures they were satisfied with.
With these artifacts in hand, their overall combat power was further enhanced.
“Take these Divine Pills. They will help you quickly consolidate your new realms and assist your subsequent cultivation.”
Ye Yunfei then took out another batch of Divine Pills and presented them.
The Guanzhong Six Heroes quickly expressed their gratitude together. They were now truly experiencing the benefits of serving a Divine Pill Master.
The pills refined by Ye Yunfei were all meticulously tailored and could be said to be the most suitable aids for their current cultivation.
“I now have a task for you to carry out.”
Ye Yunfei spoke again, his expression serious.
“Young Master Ye, whatever task you have for us six brothers, just give the order. We will carry it out with utmost dedication.”
The eldest brother quickly replied.
“Go investigate for me which forces in the Sixth Void have conflicts with the Guardian Faction—particularly serious ones, forces currently suffering oppression or direct targeting by the Guardian Faction.
If you discover any, report back to me immediately.”
Ye Yunfei instructed.
