"The Restorer Faction is far too arrogant, daring to provoke both the Guardian Faction and the Yin Corpse Hall like this. Just wait and see. The end for this organization will be utterly tragic. I reckon it won't be long before this overbearing Restorer Faction is completely wiped out."
Someone else spoke through gritted teeth.
Although the Guardian Faction and the Yin Corpse Hall had poor reputations in the Sixth Void and many enemies, there were also many forces that had already pledged allegiance to these two factions, especially the Guardian Faction. Naturally, quite a few people spoke in their defense.
"Look, it seems the people of the Restorer Faction are leaving!"
At this moment, the onlookers saw strong teleportation energy ripples emanating from the location of the previous battlefield, and someone immediately cried out.
"The members of the Restorer Faction have already left via teleportation formations.
This faction truly is quite mysterious. Unwilling to leave openly, they left via teleportation formations instead, probably fearing pursuit and not wanting others to know the location of their headquarters."
Someone speculated.
"It's no use. Such a large group of people will inevitably leave behind many traces even if they leave by teleportation formation, making them easy to track.
If the Guardian Faction and the Yin Corpse Hall wish to investigate this Restorer Faction, they only need to have their divination masters perform a deduction to immediately locate where its members have gone."
Someone sneered.
In fact, at that very moment, near the previous battlefield, people were already beginning to employ divination arts to deduce the whereabouts of those from the Restorer Faction.
This was because throughout the entire battle, scouts from both the Guardian Faction and the Yin Corpse Hall had been observing nearby.
After the Restorer army departed the battlefield via teleportation formations, many shadowy figures immediately began to quietly approach the recent combat site, attempting to capture the various lingering auras left behind by the Restorers.
Even more than a dozen figures shrouded in hazy light of laws tried to enter those formations to trace the path of the Restorer forces.
However, as soon as these dozen or so figures drew near, they were attacked by the formations. Several were torn to shreds on the spot by the terrifying formation energy.
These formations had been set up by Ye Yunfei specifically to hinder pursuit, as he had long anticipated that scouts from both factions would come tracking.
Then, more and more scouts from the Guardian Faction and the Yin Corpse Hall appeared nearby, seeking to trace the Restorers' direction of retreat. Some scouts also headed off to pursue in different directions.
"The Restorer Faction kept such a low profile, remaining completely hidden within our Sixth Void all this time, only suddenly emerging now to bare its fangs, immediately dealing a heavy blow to both the Guardian Faction and the Yin Corpse Hall."
Someone exclaimed in amazement.
"Why would this Restorer Faction, the moment it appears, immediately oppose two major forces like the Guardian Faction and the Yin Corpse Hall?"
Someone asked in puzzlement.
"I think it's most likely that the Guardian Faction and the Yin Corpse Hall offended this Restorer Faction. Over this period, these two major forces have annihilated quite a few Small Worlds. Perhaps among them were territories belonging to the Restorer Faction, so now they've come for revenge."
Someone guessed.
"Yes, that is most likely the reason."
The people around nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.
Right at that moment, a terrifyingly potent pressure of energy suddenly swept across the sky, instantly enveloping the vast expanse of void. Everyone present immediately fell silent.
Then, the crowd saw a middle-aged man in gray robes appear within the recently concluded battlefield.
His appearance was far too abrupt. He simply materialized. No one could perceive how he had arrived.
This middle-aged man stood in the battlefield, his gaze somber. After perceiving for a moment, he took a step and strode directly into the formations Ye Yunfei had laid down.
Boom! Rumble…
Formation light-screens manifested one after another without end, rolling waves of formation power roaring toward the middle-aged man.
However, the pressure of energy emanating from this middle-aged man was too terrifying. Step by step, he moved forward, directly shaking to pieces the formations blocking his path. Those formations seemed as fragile as bubbles under sunlight to him.
In less than the time of a single breath, this middle-aged man had advanced through the layers of formations and arrived before the few large Teleportation Formations at the very center.
Just as this middle-aged man attempted to use these Teleportation Formations for transit, they all simultaneously exploded, self-destructing.
"Interesting."
The middle-aged man sneered. He then began a divination, concluding his deduction in just a few breaths. With one step, he pierced through space and vanished.
At this time, Ye Yunfei was already far from the previous battle site.
"The Changping Sect's headquarters has become an extremely dangerous place. Quickly issue the order for all members of your sect to evacuate."
After teleporting away from the battlefield, Ye Yunfei immediately spoke to the Sect Master of the Changping Sect.
"Young Master Ye, please rest assured. I made arrangements long ago. By now, everyone from our Changping Sect headquarters should have already left," the Sect Master replied.
"Good!"
Ye Yunfei nodded.
"I sense a master is performing divination to deduce your whereabouts. Of course, he's not just divining you; he's also divining the location of the entire Restorer force," Hun Lao suddenly sent a voice transmission to Ye Yunfei.
"Yes, I faintly sense a dangerous will attempting to lock onto me as well," Ye Yunfei acknowledged.
"No, there's more than one. At least two or three dangerous wills are searching for my location."
Ye Yunfei's heart stirred, and he added.
"It must be the Heavenly Gods from the Guardian Faction and the Yin Corpse Hall coming after us.
These fellows truly are powerful, able to lock onto you across such vast spatial distances. But it could also be those relatively formidable divination masters at work," Hun Lao said.
"Possibly. Both the Guardian Faction and the Yin Corpse Hall have those exceptionally skilled divination masters. Furthermore, the divination masters of these two factions have long been aware of my existence. Especially that elder Wizard, the most senior one within the Guardian Faction—he's been tracking me all along," Ye Yunfei stated.
Ye Yunfei had devoured the Soul Bodies of quite a few True Gods from the Guardian Faction and absorbed their memories. He knew there was a particularly ancient Wizard within the Guardian Faction, and that old Wizard had been investigating who had killed so many of the Guardian Faction's True Gods earlier. It was said that the old Wizard had already locked onto a target and was conducting a more detailed investigation and localization.
Ye Yunfei understood clearly that the target locked onto by that old Wizard was likely himself, as he had been the one who had killed numerous Guardian Faction True Gods during that period.
A little while later, Ye Yunfei sensed several extremely dangerous auras heading toward his current spatial location. Although these auras were still very far away, they were approaching at a shocking speed.
"It seems those fellows have managed to lock onto you from afar," Hun Lao said to Ye Yunfei.
"They've not only locked onto me, but also onto everyone else. Of course, the primary target is me, since everyone else is within the Illusory Shadow Pagoda," Ye Yunfei said.
Then, Ye Yunfei took out the Jade Ruyi and activated it. It immediately emitted a large number of profound runes that enveloped the surface of his body, concealing his aura.
"It seems that fellow possesses a very sophisticated artifact capable of concealing his aura."
When Ye Yunfei activated the Jade Ruyi, an expert in each of several different directions halted their steps and spoke softly.
Then, these experts continued their pursuit while performing divinations, though their speed noticeably slowed compared to before. This was because Ye Yunfei's Jade Ruyi was taking effect.
"Can we really trust those two fellows from earlier?
The pursuers behind us are still tracking us. If they truly catch up, we probably won't be a match!"
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm's perception was no weaker than Hun Lao's or Ye Yunfei's. At this moment, he also sensed several terrifying auras in the distance tracking Ye Yunfei and couldn't help but speak up.
"Don't worry just yet. Be a little patient. I believe they should be reliable," Ye Yunfei said.
At the same moment, two men suddenly appeared in a certain location in the Chaotic Void Sea.
"That young man truly is capable of stirring up such trouble! So quickly, he's stirred up such a big incident," one of the men spoke.
"I consider this a good thing. Isn't this precisely the kind of talent we need?
So we should support him with all our strength," the other man said with a smile.
"Indeed. With someone of this caliber present, our task becomes much easier.
This young man is worth cultivating," the first man nodded.
Then, one of the men took out a communication jade slip and sent out a transmission.
