"Correct. That longsword left behind by the old fellow from the Autumn Wind Group is definitely a Sovereign God-level artifact."
Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm was quite shocked upon seeing Ye Yunfei, under the siege of so many Heavenly Gods, consecutively slay three or four Heavenly Gods in a short time, and couldn't help but call out.
"This longsword is indeed a fine artifact, but the most important thing is still the legacy left behind by that old fellow. In his time, he was among the top assassins in the Chaotic Void Sea. The movement techniques and blade techniques he cultivated were both among the pinnacle techniques and secret arts of that era."
Ye Yunfei said with a smile.
The longsword in Ye Yunfei's hands was seized from the master of the Autumn Wind Group's leader. Furthermore, Ye Yunfei had devoured the remnant soul of the leader's master, obtaining his legacy. In a short period, Ye Yunfei had already achieved a certain level of cultivation in it.
Because Ye Yunfei possessed the master's memories, cultivating his legacy was a simple and effortless affair for him.
Upon receiving Ye Yunfei's Sound Transmission, the dozens of Heavenly Gods on Ye Yunfei's side were stunned, each stopping in their tracks, looking at one another uncertainly.
"Is Young Master Ye planning to take on so many Heavenly Gods from the Guardian Faction by himself? Isn't that too risky? Although his strength is formidable, trying to face so many Heavenly Gods alone... he probably can't win, right?"
Some Heavenly Gods revealed worried expressions, exchanging Sound Transmissions.
"Seniors, there is no need to worry about me. If I truly cannot handle it, I will certainly ask for aid from you seniors in a timely manner. Such a battle is rare for me; I wish to properly experience it as it will aid my cultivation."
Seeing the Heavenly Gods hesitate, Ye Yunfei understood their concern for his safety and immediately sent another Sound Transmission.
"Alright then, Young Master Ye, be careful. If you cannot handle it, send a Sound Transmission to us immediately. We are ready at any time."
Having received Ye Yunfei's Sound Transmission again, those Heavenly Gods no longer insisted on going to assist Ye Yunfei. Instead, they turned and charged towards the remaining personnel of the Guardian Faction.
At this moment, over two-thirds of the Guardian Faction's army had already surrendered to Ye Yunfei, leaving only a small portion resisting stubbornly. Of course, this resistance already appeared feeble.
The dozens of Heavenly Gods on Ye Yunfei's side launched their assault, quickly cutting down the Guardian Faction's remnant forces into a shambling mess, thoroughly routed.
The Guardian Faction's army was utterly defeated, devoid of any remaining capacity for a counteroffensive.
On the Guardian Faction's side, only those sixty to seventy Heavenly Gods, the Prison Master, and the old Wizard continued to fight.
"These fellows are all top-grade cultivation materials for me!"
At this moment, Huang Shang's pitch-black, glossy Ghost Body appeared beside Ye Yunfei. Looking at the Guardian Faction's Heavenly Gods before him, his eyes gleamed hotly as he revealed a sinister smile.
"Let's get moving. The treasures and goods on these guys combined are bound to be a considerable fortune. We're about to make a great haul soon."
Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm also appeared beside Ye Yunfei, his gaze towards those Heavenly Gods filled with greed. He even licked his lips with his tongue, like a glutton encountering a feast.
"No need to rush. They won't escape."
Ye Yunfei said with a laugh.
After speaking, he charged forward, once again engaging those Heavenly Gods in intense battle.
Huang Shang, Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm, Hu Miao, Hun Lao, and others also coordinated attacks from the side to assist Ye Yunfei.
"Ah...! What kind of insects are these?! So many of them! They are devouring my Soul Force Energy and my Soul Body! Get out!"
In the midst of battle, an Intermediate Heavenly God suddenly screamed miserably.
He discovered that tens of thousands of bizarre insects had suddenly appeared within his sea of consciousness, frantically devouring his Soul Force Energy and besieging his Soul Body. In an extremely short time, his Soul Force Energy had already dropped a significant portion.
While his face was full of terror, trying to find a way to expel the tens of thousands of bizarre insects from his sea of consciousness, a red blade ray suddenly appeared behind him. With a single slash, he was cleaved in two.
Then Ye Yunfei appeared, suppressing his Soul Body and physical body separately.
"What kind of movement technique is this brat using? It's too bizarre. I actually can't lock onto his aura and location accurately."
The other Heavenly Gods saw Ye Yunfei appearing and disappearing like a ghost, using the blood-red longsword in his hands to hack down one companion after another. They felt both shock and fury.
"Everyone, form battle formations immediately! With so many of us, we can at least form two battle formations. Use the formations to deal with him!"
Suddenly someone shouted.
"Correct! Form battle formations!"
The other Heavenly Gods of the Guardian Faction reacted. Soon, two battle formations were swiftly formed.
Rumble...
After one battle formation took shape, a gigantic sword immediately materialized, releasing tens of millions of dazzling sword rays. All the sword energy and sword laws in heaven and earth converged upon it, pouring into the giant sword. Then, with a booming sound, it swept towards Ye Yunfei.
The combined power of twenty to thirty Heavenly Gods channeled through this formation to activate this giant sword was truly terrifying.
"Kid, let's see how powerful you really are."
The Heavenly Gods within the battle formation revealed fierce, cruel smiles.
At this moment, above the other battle formation, a massive ferocious beast suddenly coalesced. Its body resembled a tiger, covered entirely in hard scales, with two wings protruding from its back, emanating billowing ferocious aura that even made Ye Yunfei feel somewhat stifled.
"Everyone, be prepared to assist Young Master Ye at any moment."
Seeing the two battle formations formed by the Guardian Faction's Heavenly Gods, the Heavenly Gods on Ye Yunfei's side immediately assumed grave expressions.
Each battle formation was composed of twenty to thirty Heavenly Gods. The energy pressure they emanated was far too terrifying.
The Heavenly Gods on Ye Yunfei's side did not believe Ye Yunfei could simultaneously deal with two such formations by himself; they would undoubtedly need to lend their aid.
"Originally, I wanted to leave these fellows with whole corpses. But there's no helping it now."
Ye Yunfei looked at the two battle formations charging fiercely towards him, a cold smile appearing on his face as he spoke slowly.
Boom!
An immensely powerful aura suddenly burst forth from Ye Yunfei's body, billowing throughout the heavens and earth, sweeping across the entire stretch of void.
Then, to everyone's shock, they saw a crown slowly materialize above Ye Yunfei's head.
In this moment, Ye Yunfei's aura climbed to a frightfully high level. Standing there, he seemed to dominate the entire void, ruling over the world, his might shaking all directions.
"That's a God King Crown! So he has cultivated into a God King after all!"
At this moment, everyone couldn't help but reveal expressions of shock and awe.
All along, everyone believed Ye Yunfei primarily relied on physical strength, for his realm was merely that of a True God. Without possessing formidable physical power, it was impossible for him to possess the heaven-defying combat power to crush the majority of Heavenly Gods.
But now everyone suddenly understood: Ye Yunfei was already a God King. Even without relying on physical strength, he already possessed combat power at the Heavenly God level.
"So he is a God King. His talent and potential are even greater than I imagined!"
From afar, the Prison Master, who was in a fierce battle with the silver-robed elder, cast his gaze towards Ye Yunfei and murmured softly.
"No wonder. He was merely a True God yet possessed such formidable combat power. So he was already a God King. I estimate in previous battles he must have already utilized a portion of a God King's energy, enabling him to kill extensively."
The old Wizard's gaze also turned towards Ye Yunfei, becoming grim. He knew that Ye Yunfei cultivating to become a God King meant the threat he posed to the Guardian Faction had become even greater.
"As expected of one who can bring a crisis of extinction to our Guardian Faction. He must die. Otherwise, the Guardian Faction in the Sixth Void will never know peace."
The old Wizard's gaze towards Ye Yunfei was filled with thick killing intent as he thought to himself.
"With my current strength, executing 'One Blade Severing Yin and Yang,' its power shouldn't be much weaker than that old fellow's, right?"
Ye Yunfei held the blood-red longsword with both hands, looking at the two battle formations surging towards him, and spoke softly.
Then Ye Yunfei lifted the sword high overhead with both hands. An overbearing blade intent—capable of killing all and destroying all—instantly manifested.
Previously, Ye Yunfei had always cultivated sword techniques, possessing not much attainment in blade techniques. But not long ago, after devouring the remnant soul of the leader's master and obtaining part of his memories, and then devouring the Soul Body of the leader himself, acquiring his memories as well... during this time, Ye Yunfei had been continuously using one of his Soul Bodies and nearly half of his Soul Power Stars to deduce, comprehend, and cultivate the blade path legacy left behind by both the master and the leader. Of course, this included all their lifetimes of insights, experiences, as well as the various blade path techniques and martial skills they had cultivated.
Now Ye Yunfei's blade technique level had also reached a considerable height. Coupled with the fact that Ye Yunfei was a God King, he could already preliminarily execute a domineering, boundless blade technique like 'One Blade Severing Yin and Yang'.
Boom!
Ye Yunfei swung the blade forward.
The space ahead was instantly sundered. The left side turned pitch-black, while the right side became a radiant, brilliant brightness. Space transformed into two distinctly different worlds.
The left, dark world contained a bone-chilling, terrifying coldness that made one's heart tremble. The right world was as warm as spring, brimming with vitality, bright sunlight illuminating the earth.
One blade separating Yin and Yang. One blade also separating life and death!
"What blade technique is this?!"
The Heavenly Gods of the Guardian Faction, who were collectively surging towards Ye Yunfei with killing intent, suddenly saw the two strange worlds distinctly separated into Yin and Yang, and were all stunned.
"Not good! Run!"
Then, those Heavenly Gods with particularly acute perception were the first to sense the terrifying crisis and cried out loudly.
However, before these Heavenly Gods could react, a colossal blade ray manifested.
Capable of annihilating all, destroying all.
Aiyah! Aiyah!...
One miserable scream after another rang out as Heavenly Gods were instantly cleaved in half.
Witnesses saw one of the battle formations, as a massive blade ray flashed past, instantly split into two halves.
The bodies of most Heavenly Gods within that battle formation were also cleaved in half by this fearsome blade ray.
"Too terrifying!"
The other battle formation, although still intact, found every Heavenly God within it frozen in place, trembling with fright.
One blade had shattered a battle formation composed of twenty to thirty Heavenly Gods!
Such combat power was unbelievable!
At this moment, a dead silence fell over the scene. Everyone wore expressions of disbelief.
"Using your God King cultivation to execute that blade technique, its power isn't weaker than that old fellow's at all! I feel it might even be stronger!"
Hun Lao couldn't help but say with a laugh.
