"Ye brat…"
Facing Ye Yunfei's icy, merciless gaze, this Seventh-Level Sovereign God felt his scalp go numb. He forced himself to steady his nerves, just about to open his mouth to address Ye Yunfei.
Suddenly, Ye Yunfei reached out and grabbed. A massive, invisible wind hand coalesced from wind energy and wind laws instantly seized the Seventh-Level Sovereign God in a firm grip.
Then Ye Yunfei began employing his Soul Power Star Technique to forcibly devour the Sovereign God's soul body.
Utterly suppressed by the towering tornado and the intangible wind hand, this Seventh-Level Sovereign God had no power to resist. Soon, his soul body was consumed, leaving behind only a corpse.
Next, Ye Yunfei walked towards another Seventh-Level Sovereign God of the Guardian Faction. With another reach and grab, he caught this Sovereign God in his invisible wind hand and directly devoured his soul body.
These Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods seemed utterly weak before Ye Yunfei, like helpless chicks completely at his mercy.
"Ye Yunfei, you are too ruthless!"
When Ye Yunfei arrived before the old man leading the Guardian Faction forces, the old man immediately roared at him.
"Killing so many of our Guardian Faction's Greater Sovereign Gods, aren't you afraid of karma?"
"Karma?" Ye Yunfei chuckled coldly. "Is it meaningful for the Guardian Faction to speak to me of karma?"
Then he stretched out his hand and gently grabbed towards the old man.
"You Ye-named little beast, I'll fight you with my life!"
In desperation, the old man roared. Over a dozen magic treasures shot forth from within his body, all activated simultaneously, rumbling as they slammed towards Ye Yunfei.
These dozen treasures were his last reserves. Previously, he had already taken out many to resist the surrounding gales and tornadoes, all of which had been destroyed.
Boom…
Two or three tornadoes from the surroundings simultaneously converged on the old man, attacking from different directions. They crashed into his body, causing horrifying wounds to continuously appear on his flesh. Large chunks of flesh and blood were torn off by the raging winds. In less than the time it takes to breathe, over half of his body was destroyed, leaving only a small, bloody remnant suspended there.
Then the old man completely lost his ability to resist. Ye Yunfei grabbed him in his palm and devoured his soul body.
At this moment, the twelve Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods of the Hunyuan Sect were leading their army, pursuing the Guardian Faction troops trying to flee.
Trapped by the roiling gales, the Guardian Faction army simply couldn't escape.
Wherever the winds passed, members of the Guardian Faction forces immediately lost their footing, shivering within the tempest, utterly unable to move even half a step.
"Let me handle this!"
Suddenly Huang Shang appeared, emanating a sky-filling ghastly aura. He then released armies of ghosts and corpses, beginning to capture the Guardian Faction troops trapped in the winds.
Wherever Huang Shang passed, a large number of Guardian Faction members instantly had their soul bodies devoured. Their corpses were also collected by Huang Shang into his corpse pouch.
The twelve Hunyuan Sect Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods had already received a sound transmission from Ye Yunfei, instructing them to lead the Hunyuan Sect army in coordinating with Huang Shang and, if possible, to avoid damaging the corpses of the Guardian Faction army members.
A short while later, Ye Yunfei had either slain or subdued all fourteen Guardian Faction Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods. He then turned and walked towards other Sovereign Gods of the Guardian Faction.
In another moment, Ye Yunfei had slain or subdued a batch of other Guardian Faction Sovereign Gods of various realms.
Since he could effortlessly handle Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods, Sixth Level or lower Sovereign Gods seemed extremely weak before Ye Yunfei, with even less ability to resist.
Walking across the wind-howling battlefield with his hands clasped behind his back, Ye Yunfei had truly become the master who controlled everything.
"The legacy left by the Wind Demon God is truly terrifying. Now you alone can easily annihilate an entire army," Hun Lao sighed.
"Yes, the Wind Demon God's inheritance is indeed formidable, especially on a large-scale battlefield like this. It can be directly used to deal with an entire army, maximizing its effect," Ye Yunfei nodded, feeling quite satisfied himself.
Not long after, the battle ended. The Hunyuan Sect army had fought with great ease during this confrontation; there hadn't even been any proper combat.
Members of the Hunyuan Sect forces even felt a sense of simply standing by watching. It seemed they didn't need to participate in this battle at all, just observe from the sidelines.
The Guardian Faction army on this battlefield had been utterly eradicated, including the fourteen Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods.
"What a glorious victory!" After the battle had completely concluded, each of the twelve Hunyuan Sect Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods was extremely excited.
"To be honest, Young Master Ye won this battle single-handedly. We merely stood by and watched, without lending any real help," Elder Gan said with a wry smile.
"Yes, in this battle, including the entire Hunyuan Sect army, we really didn't help much. It was equivalent to watching from the sidelines," the other Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods chimed in.
"Regardless, the Guardian Faction army on this battlefield has been eliminated. For our Hunyuan Sect, this is a tremendous victory," Elder Feng stated.
"Everyone, the battle is over. Let the troops rest briefly, then we'll set out to support the next battlefield," Ye Yunfei, who had arrived unnoticed before these Hunyuan Sect Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods, spoke.
"Young Master Ye, our army was at ease throughout this entire battle; they didn't even need to strike. Therefore, rest isn't necessary. We can proceed directly," one Elder said to Ye Yunfei.
"Good, then we'll move out immediately, striving to end the war in the Fifth Void sooner," Ye Yunfei nodded.
"We shall all act according to Young Master Ye's command," Hearing Ye Yunfei's words, the twelve Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods were greatly encouraged and answered in unison.
They knew that with Ye Yunfei's current strength and methods, it might indeed be possible to defeat the Guardian Faction army in this void and help the Hunyuan Sect achieve victory in the war.
A moment later, following Ye Yunfei's order, the Hunyuan Sect army began moving towards their next target battlefield.
After annihilating the previous army, the Hunyuan Sect's Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods had already dispatched people to take control of over a dozen world clusters within a vast expanse of void near the battlefield.
In wars between two great forces, every battlefield is surrounded by a contested territory. The victorious side in a battle would then occupy the nearby domains.
Fleets of flying vessels densely filled the Fifth Void, a vast and majestic scene.
A good half day after Ye Yunfei led the Hunyuan Sect army away from that battlefield, a group of figures surged forth and halted at the location of the conflict.
The old man leading them observed the blood-soaked battlefield with a sky-piercing sanguine aura, his expression instantly turning extremely grim.
If Ye Yunfei were here, he would immediately recognize this leading old man as Elder Xu of the Guardian Faction, whom he had met before inside the Wind Demon God continent.
"Elder Xu, the battle here seems to have ended. Why are both armies gone from sight?"
A Seventh-Level Sovereign God beside him looked at the eerily empty battlefield and asked, puzzled.
With the power of these Greater Sovereign Gods, arriving here they could tell this stretch of void had just witnessed a large-scale battle, yet the forces of both sides had vanished.
During the previous battle, Huang Shang had collected the corpses and soul bodies of the vast majority of Guardian Faction members as cultivation resources. Therefore, only scattered remains and pieces of flesh littered the battlefield.
"On this battlefield, our Guardian Faction army has already been eliminated. The Hunyuan Sect army has left," Elder Xu said slowly, his face growing even darker. As soon as he arrived, he had released his Soul Power energy to perceive the area and simultaneously employed a high-level Divination Art to deduce what had transpired.
"What?"
Hearing Elder Xu's words, the Greater Sovereign Gods of the Guardian Faction accompanying him were all greatly shocked.
"Our Guardian Faction army on this battlefield has been destroyed? Is that true?"
The Guardian Faction force deployed on this battlefield was quite substantial, including a large batch of Sovereign Gods. There had been fourteen Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods alone—a strong and powerful army. Such a force being annihilated would be a massive loss for the Guardian Faction.
"Our Guardian Faction's army on this battlefield has indeed been eradicated," Elder Xu continued deducing while shaking his head with a sigh.
"How is that possible? Is the Hunyuan Sect army so formidable? Recently, our Guardian Faction armies have been eliminated on several battlefields. What is the reason for this? Could it be the strength of the Hunyuan Sect forces in the Fifth Void far exceeds our initial estimates?" a Seventh-Level Sovereign God voiced.
"I sense the aura of wind energy and wind laws here. What exactly happened? Did the gales and tornadoes from the Wind Demon God continent escape? Has some change occurred inside?"
After further deduction, Elder Xu's face revealed a confused expression, because he had perceived and deduced the presence of wind energy and wind laws in this void.
"Elder Xu, the world entrance you mentioned should be over there, right?"
Behind Elder Xu, an old man with a powerful aura turned his gaze towards a spatial fissure in the distance and spoke wearily.
Inside that spatial fissure was precisely the world where the Wind Demon God had left his treasures and inheritance.
"That's correct. It's over there," Elder Xu looked over and nodded.
"Let's go. We'll head in immediately to investigate. Something might have changed inside," Elder Xu declared.
Then his figure flickered as he led the way, charging towards the distant spatial fissure.
"Elder Xu, since our Guardian Faction lost an army on this battlefield, shouldn't we thoroughly investigate this first instead of entering that world now?" a Seventh-Level Sovereign God following Elder Xu asked.
"The most important matter currently is entering the Wind Demon God continent to obtain the treasures and inheritance left by the Wind Demon God. We'll settle accounts with the Hunyuan Sect once we come out," Elder Xu stated.
Soon, these Guardian Faction powerhouses rushed into that world.
