While that Early Stage Sovereign God fled for his life, Ye Yunfei had already activated his movement technique, arriving before another Sovereign God with astonishing speed.
"Your turn now!"
Ye Yunfei, holding a blade in his left hand and a sword in his right, gave a cold laugh. Then, both blade and sword lashed out simultaneously. A dazzling storm of sword shadows and blade light erupted, attacking that Sovereign God.
A silver spear floated in front of this Sovereign God, which he thrust forward to block. Immediately, billions of sharp spear rays bloomed, clashing with Ye Yunfei's blade and sword. A series of crisp metallic clangs rang out before the silver spear was sent flying backwards.
Shocked, a shield surged out from within the Sovereign God's body to protect him, but this shield was instantly struck aside by Ye Yunfei's long blade and sword.
"His combat prowess is too terrifying!"
This Sovereign God actually lacked the courage to continue fighting Ye Yunfei and began retreating rapidly.
The silver spear that had been knocked away returned to his hands. Holding it with both hands, he desperately defended against Ye Yunfei's onslaught.
Ye Yunfei brandished his blade and sword, unleashing one thick sword ray and blade ray after another in an endless, impenetrable torrent, as relentless as cascading water.
Moments later, a scream tore from the Sovereign God as a sweeping blade light severed his left arm. Then, a thick sword ray hacked off his right arm as well. The silver spear, still clutched in the severed arm, was sent flying once more.
"How is this possible?!"
Witnessing this, the other Sovereign Gods who were busy breaking the formations wore expressions of utter disbelief and shock.
"This kid's combat power seems much stronger than it was back in Huan Jian Gu!" some Sovereign Gods exclaimed in astonishment.
The Sovereign God wielding the silver spear had been a Intermediate Sovereign God, yet he was defeated by Ye Yunfei in such a short time.
"Too strong! Young Master Ye can now easily defeat a Mid-stage Sovereign God!"
Inside the Guhai Sect headquarters, the Sect Master, the Supreme Elder, and all the top brass were watching the battle tensely. Upon seeing Ye Yunfei effortlessly defeat that Mid-stage Sovereign God, they couldn't help but cheer excitedly.
"Hahaha! Do these Sovereign Gods now understand Young Master Ye's power? With Young Master Ye here, our Guhai Sect will be safe!"
The Guhai Sect leaders shouted fervently. Before the battle began, they had felt immense pressure. But witnessing the formidable combat prowess Ye Yunfei displayed, they now felt much more confident.
"Should we go out and fight alongside Young Master Ye?" the Guhai Sect Master asked the Supreme Elder.
"You all stay here. I will go out to help Young Master Ye face the enemy," the Supreme Elder said after a moment's thought.
With that, the Supreme Elder took a step forward, swiftly charging outside. He quickly arrived behind Ye Yunfei.
"Young Master Ye, I have come to aid you!" the Guhai Sect Supreme Elder roared.
His blue robe billowed without any wind, releasing a tsunami-like surge of blue energy that crashed toward an Early Stage Sovereign God like rolling waves. A colossal sea beast soared from the churning blue waves, pouncing forward to kill.
That Early Stage Sovereign God was busy dismantling the Earth Formations and Formations Ye Yunfei had laid earlier. Seeing the Guhai Sect Supreme Elder attack him, he immediately moved to defend. Soon, he was locked in combat with the Sect's Supreme Elder.
Although the Guhai Sect Supreme Elder was only an Early Stage Sovereign God, he was a veteran one, his combat power far surpassing others of the same level.
"Now it's your turn."
By now, Ye Yunfei had set his sights on another Sovereign God. Activating the Nine Dragons Supreme Steps and augmenting it with his physical body strength, his speed became unimaginably fast. In just one step, he charged before that Sovereign God.
*Hum!*
A small black mirror materialized and hovered above Ye Yunfei's head. From it shot a thick beam of black light, aimed directly at that Sovereign God's Soul Body. This small black mirror housed an artifact spirit capable of actively attacking enemies.
Although this black mirror had been damaged in ancient times, under the control of its artifact spirit, its offensive power remained formidable. It immediately caused significant interference to the Sovereign God's Soul Body.
Under the combined assault of this black mirror and the Mind Reading Art, this Sovereign God began to grow disturbed and uneasy.
"Damn it! This kid's Soul Power martial techniques are so powerful! And what level is that black mirror artifact? It can actually threaten my Soul Body!"
This Sovereign God felt a surge of fear, though the greater threat undoubtedly came from the sword and blade in Ye Yunfei's hands. The thick sword and blade rays Ye Yunfei continuously unleashed each contained terrifying power. He dared not face them head-on, forced to retreat step by step.
"Everyone, come quickly and face this enemy together! This kid's fighting strength is too terrifying!"
Soon, this Sovereign God was beaten into a flustered state by Ye Yunfei, finding it hard to fight back. In panic, he began shouting.
However, at that moment, the other Sovereign Gods were constantly besieged by the numerous Formations and Earth Formations Ye Yunfei was controlling and could not quickly come to his aid.
"Kid, cease your arrogance!"
Finally, one of the Mid-stage Deities shattered all the Earth Formations and Formations blocking his path, soaring into the air. With a wave of his hand, he unleashed a sky-full of chains forged from Great Dao Laws, rattling and whipping through the air to entangle Ye Yunfei and halt his attack.
Ye Yunfei sneered coldly. With a thought, he also released his own Great Dao Laws. *Rustle, rustle* — dense chains of Great Dao Laws manifested all around Ye Yunfei's body, enveloping him in protection.
*Clang! Clang! Clang!...*
The chains from both sides collided, instantly filling the sky with dazzling sparks that illuminated the entire area.
"How is this possible? He's just a Heavenly God! His mastery of the Great Dao Laws is on par with mine!"
That Sovereign God's face paled in shock upon seeing the chains of Great Dao Laws surrounding Ye Yunfei. He could tell that Ye Yunfei's Great Dao Law cultivation was no weaker than his own. Yet, he was a Intermediate Sovereign God, while Ye Yunfei was merely a Heavenly God.
Back in the Colorless Abyss, Ye Yunfei's cultivation in the Great Dao Laws had improved tremendously, reaching a Sovereign God level long ago.
*Aghhh!*
A miserable shriek rang out as the Sovereign God Ye Yunfei was attacking was struck simultaneously by a blade ray and a sword ray. His physical body instantly shattered into pieces.
"You damned brat!"
The Soul Body of this Sovereign God emerged amidst the shower of flesh, blood, and bone fragments, glaring at Ye Yunfei with venomous hatred, grinding his teeth.
As a Sovereign God, having his physical body destroyed by a mere Heavenly God was a profound humiliation.
*Rumble...*
Before the Soul Body could finish speaking, it sensed five Soul Spears, emanating an eerie aura of Soul Power energy, roaring toward it.
Terrified, the Sovereign God dared not say more and immediately turned to flee.
But the five Soul Spears Ye Yunfei released were far too fast. In an instant, they were upon the Soul Body's back. A dozen Sovereign God-level soul-type artifacts surged from the Sovereign God's Soul Body, activating one after another to block the Soul Spears.
"Heheh, you can't escape."
Suddenly, a pitch-black, gleaming Ghost Body materialized right in front of him. With a wave of its hand, it conjured a sky full of sinister ghostly mist. From within the billowing mist emerged dense clusters of Ghost Barriers. Each barrier was crammed with the ghastly faces of vengeful ghosts and evil spirits, weeping streams of fresh blood, presenting a truly macabre sight.
"A Ghost Cultivator!"
This Sovereign God immediately recognized Huang Shang.
Huang Shang had previously devoured the Soul Bodies of Sovereign Gods, which had dramatically improved the quality of his own Soul Body and his Soul Power energy level. Moreover, following Ye Yunfei, Huang Shang never lacked cultivation resources, allowing his strength to steadily increase. Huang Shang now possessed combat power capable of facing a Sovereign God.
Furthermore, as a Ghost Cultivator, he was inherently a natural counter to all Soul Bodies. Since this Sovereign God had yet to reconstitute his physical body and only possessed a Soul Body, Huang Shang dared to confront him directly.
*Rumble...*
Huang Shang launched his attack, deploying various advanced Ghost Cultivation techniques against the Sovereign God's Soul Body.
Meanwhile, the small black mirror above Ye Yunfei's head erupted with another thick beam of black light, instantly illuminating that Sovereign God's Soul Body.
"Damn you! You win this time! Just you wait—if I ever get a chance, I will take my revenge!"
Faced with Ye Yunfei and Huang Shang's fearsome combined assaults, this Sovereign God had long lost any will to fight. His Soul Body, protected by over a dozen Sovereign God-level soul-type artifacts, turned and fled. His shattered flesh and bone fragments also followed, trying to escape alongside his Soul Body.
But Ye Yunfei gave him no chance to escape. His blade and sword lashed out simultaneously.
*Clang! Clang! Clang!...*
In mere moments, all the Soul Power artifacts were knocked flying. Then, Ye Yunfei swung both blade and sword, cleaving the Sovereign God's Soul Body directly into four pieces.
*Aghhh!...*
The Sovereign God had been trying to reconstitute his body while fleeing. But having his Soul Body split into four in such a short time inflicted severe injuries, drawing a piercing, agonized scream from him.
"Brat, stop!"
At that moment, another Sovereign God roared and charged forward. This Sovereign God belonged to the same faction as the one whose Soul Body Ye Yunfei had just cleaved, and he sought to rescue his comrade.
Ye Yunfei attacked with both blade and sword, directly repelling the charging Sovereign God. Then, he swung again, causing the already quartered Soul Body ahead of him to explode once more.
Huang Shang, seeing this, was overjoyed. He immediately began employing his Ghost Cultivation techniques to rapidly devour the fragments of the Sovereign God's Soul Body.
Ye Yunfei, too, employed his Soul Force Star Method, starting to absorb the Soul Body fragments.
"Aghhh! Brat, I refuse to accept this! I am a Mid-stage Sovereign God! To perish like this at the hands of a nobody like you... I will not accept it!"
Before his fall, this Mid-stage Sovereign God let out a roar filled with resentment.
But no one could alter his fate. Soon, his Soul Body was divided between Huang Shang and Ye Yunfei, and his essence blood was refined and absorbed by the Blood Race clone. After absorbing half of this Mid-stage Sovereign God's Soul Body, Ye Yunfei gained his memories, acquiring several Sovereign God-level cultivation techniques and secret arts.
