"I'm here!"
Transforming into a streak of golden light, the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm appeared beside Ye Yunfei and then shot forward, smashing into a Primary Level Sovereign God and sending him flying, his body shattered into pieces.
"Go a little easier on them, try not to damage their bodies too much!"
Seeing Ye Yunfei and the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm tearing their opponents apart with a single strike, Huang Shang couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache and immediately sent a sound transmission to remind them.
At this moment, Hu Miao also appeared, casting illusion after illusion and drawing a large group of the Guardian Faction's forces on the battlefield into inextricable fantasies.
Boom!...
The Nine Divine Beasts of the Nine Palaces Totem Wheel emerged, each standing in one of the nine palace grids, working together to push the massive totemic wheel rolling forward. It immediately sent a Primary Level Sovereign God flying and then crushed a large number of Guardian Faction troops into bloody mist.
The amount and quality of cultivation resources these nine divine beasts had devoured had reached an astonishing level, so their current strength was truly fearsome.
The nine beasts pushing the Totem Wheel together represented their most powerful combat posture. Wherever they went, even Intermediate Sovereign Gods dared not resist head-on, let alone the ordinary troops of the Guardian Faction.
Driven by the combined force of the nine divine beasts, that enormous Totem Wheel was akin to a massive meat grinder. Wherever it went, it decimated the Guardian Faction forces, leaving them wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves, routed and broken.
"Damn it!
Just how many strange and powerful experts do they have?"
At this point, the Guardian Faction's high-ranking members saw that Ye Yunfei, Huang Shang, the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm, Hu Miao, and several others were all exceptionally strong, each cultivating unique skills and secret arts, and had already slaughtered a huge number of Guardian Faction troops in a short time.
The Guardian Faction's army had initially gained the upper hand, but with Ye Yunfei's return, they were forced into a retreat within moments. This turn in the battle filled the Guardian Faction's leadership with both shock and fury.
"The one leading them should be that youngster. He is Ye Yunfei, our primary target for elimination."
The old man leading them fixed his gaze on Ye Yunfei and spoke. After finishing his words, his figure blurred as he charged towards Ye Yunfei.
At the same time, five or six Sovereign Gods from the Guardian Faction also moved to surround and attack Ye Yunfei. Those attacking him included both Intermediate and Advanced Sovereign Gods, with the leading old man being an Advanced Sovereign God.
"Brat, prepare to die!"
An Advanced Sovereign God with astonishing movement speed quickly closed in on Ye Yunfei. With a loud roar, he brandished a golden battle halberd in his hand, which continuously enlarged as it attacked Ye Yunfei.
Ye Yunfei directly activated his Serene Ice Curse Technique. Surging ice energy erupted instantly, plunging a vast expanse of space ahead into near-eternal stillness and freeze. Everything within this space came to a halt.
That Advanced Sovereign God felt his flesh and his very thoughts instantly sealed by terrifying ice energy and ice law, rendered incapable of movement.
"No good!"
This Advanced Sovereign God paled in terror and wanted to retreat, but it was too late. A dazzling sword light slashed horizontally through the air, landing on his body and rendering him even more immobile.
Then, Ye Yunfei activated One Thought Ice World, directly sealing this Advanced Sovereign God completely within a small ice world, turning him into nothing but an ice sculpture.
This was the combat power unleashed by combining ice-element techniques with swordsmanship.
"Everyone, save me, quickly!"
The Advanced Sovereign God sealed within the ice world, his face filled with terror, cried out loudly for help.
"It's too late!"
Ye Yunfei said coldly.
Then, Ye Yunfei simply extended his hand into the man's Soul Sea, seizing his Soul Body in one grasp.
During this process, over a dozen Soul Power energy-type magical artifacts emerged within this Advanced Sovereign God's Soul Sea, activating simultaneously in an attempt to resist Ye Yunfei's encroaching hand.
However, Ye Yunfei had recently refined and merged a large batch of Sovereign God-level artifacts, rendering his physical strength incredibly tough. Moreover, this Advanced Sovereign God was already sealed and had little power to resist. In the end, his Soul Body was forcibly yanked out of his Soul Sea by Ye Yunfei and directly sealed.
Ye Yunfei's strength had already allowed him to easily defeat Intermediate Sovereign Gods and contend with Advanced ones even before. After his journey to the Sword Realm, his swordsmanship level had soared, and his overall combat power had increased substantially. Now, battling an Advanced Sovereign God seemed effortless for him.
"How can that kid be so powerful?"
The other Sovereign Gods of the Guardian Faction, witnessing Ye Yunfei effortlessly defeat an Advanced Sovereign God, were somewhat stunned and found it hard to believe. Their gazes towards Ye Yunfei now carried obvious wariness.
"One Thought Ice World!"
After sealing the Advanced Sovereign God's body and Soul Body, Ye Yunfei's gaze turned towards three battle formations composed of Guardian Faction troops nearby. He pointed a finger and softly uttered the command.
A small ice world instantly materialized, directly sealing those three Guardian Faction battle formations within it.
Then, with a gentle sweep of the sword in his hand, a dazzling sword light flashed by, directly causing all the Guardian Faction members within that ice world to explode, transforming into balls of bloody mist.
These battle formations of the Guardian Faction were powerful, but in front of Ye Yunfei, they appeared far too weak.
Ye Yunfei's attack speed was incredible. Pointing again, he sealed two other nearby Guardian Faction battle formations within ice worlds, then swept his sword horizontally, grinding every single Guardian Faction member within those two formations to dust.
"Damnable brat, stop!"
An Advanced Sovereign God had charged to a position behind Ye Yunfei. With an angry roar, nine black energy dragons surged from his body, claws bared and fangs gnashing as they pounced murderously towards Ye Yunfei.
His right palm struck out, and the phantom of a world instantly materialized within his palm. This world contained suns, moons, and stars, the changing of seasons, an endlessly vast starry sky with twinkling celestial bodies, and countless living beings inhabiting it.
This was a great supernatural ability known as Universe Within the Palm.
Ye Yunfei punched backward with his physical strength. The fist continuously enlarged, akin to a divine mountain, colliding directly with that palm containing a world.
Boom!...
The attacks from both sides erupted with unimaginably terrifying force, instantly shaking the surrounding space into continuous collapse and disintegration. Infinite shards of time and space surged and clashed.
The Advanced Sovereign God was forced back over a dozen steps in succession, a look of astonishment on his face. He couldn't comprehend why a Heavenly God could physically force him back.
With a whoosh, a brilliantly dazzling sword light was already slashing towards his face.
"Such terrifying swordplay!"
A look of terror flashed across this Advanced Sovereign God's face.
"Brat, do you really think I fear you?"
However, this Advanced Sovereign God had always been extremely hot-tempered. Although he harbored immense wariness towards Ye Yunfei in his heart, he didn't immediately turn and flee. Instead, with an angry roar, he first released over a dozen advanced magical artifacts, activating them simultaneously as they whistled towards Ye Yunfei.
But in the next instant, all sorts of bizarre thoughts and notions suddenly surfaced in his mind, slowing down both his attack movements and his thinking.
Then, Ye Yunfei pointed a finger. A small ice world instantly took shape, enveloping this Advanced Sovereign God within.
"Not good, go help him quickly!"
The other Guardian Faction Sovereign Gods witnessing this were greatly alarmed. Having seen Ye Yunfei use One Thought Ice World several times already, they knew the power of this technique. One after another, the Sovereign Gods whistled through the air as they charged over to assist the Advanced Sovereign God.
But it was too late. That Advanced Sovereign God was now completely suppressed by Ye Yunfei, his Soul Body and physical body sealed separately.
By this point in the battle, the Guardian Faction side had begun to fall into disarray. Both those at the Sovereign God level and the ordinary troops were being beaten back step by step.
"Everyone, kill!
Slaughter every last one of these bastards who dared invade our Alliance Army!"
An Earth Demon Clan elder raised his arm and shouted, swinging the massive stone hammer in his hand to smash a large group of Guardian Faction troops into pulp.
"Follow Young Master Ye! Kill all these invaders!"
Other high-ranking members within the Alliance Army, their blood boiling with passion, also raised their arms and shouted.
"Kill!"
The accumulated wrath and humiliation erupted completely at this moment. The Alliance Army, like a bursting dam, launched a frenzied charge. The ferocity of the battle reached its peak.
Ye Yunfei locked his sights on the Sovereign God experts within the Guardian Faction army. His figure moved like a ghost, his sword light flashed like thunder, as he continuously slew one Sovereign God after another.
The various swordsmanship inheritances he had cultivated not long ago were constantly unleashed. All kinds of sword dao supernatural abilities manifested—sometimes transforming into a sky-covering rain of swords, sometimes condensing into a thousand-zhang giant blade for a mighty cleave, sometimes merging body and sword for an assassination strike.
Combined with his bizarre soul techniques and formidable physical body, those Guardian Faction Sovereign Gods were simply powerless to resist before Ye Yunfei.
"Brat, I'll fight you to the death!"
A Guardian Faction Intermediate Sovereign God, seeing his close friend slain by a single sword stroke from Ye Yunfei, flew into a rage and began burning his life source. Transforming into a silver meteor, he crashed towards Ye Yunfei, only to be blasted apart by Ye Yunfei's purely physical strength with a single punch, staining the starry sky with his blood.
