At this moment on the battlefield, few Guardian Faction troops remained. Most had perished in the fighting, a lucky few had managed to escape, and the last remaining remnants were completely surrounded by the Hunyuan Sect's main army, with little hope of breaking out.
"That fellow wants to run, everyone stop him!"
Upon hearing the words of the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God, the Hunyuan Sect's Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods all charged forward desperately, someone shouting loudly.
"If I want to leave, you people are not enough to stop me."
The Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God snorted coldly.
Then he took a step back, and over ten Eighth Level Sovereign God-level magical artifacts shot out from within his body, simultaneously activated. Each artifact burst with surging artifact power, the dozen-plus artifacts forming an Artifact Combat Formation that unleashed even greater combat might.
It turned out these dozen-plus artifacts he finally unleashed were a matched set, a single suit of artifacts. This was his final trump card.
Boom...
The Artifact Combat Formation formed by over ten artifacts released an earth-shattering energy pressure that crashed forward.
Ye Yunfei, the Hunyuan Sect's Eighth Level Sovereign God, and the other Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods all stopped their charge, even retreating several steps.
Because the energy pressure released simultaneously by over a dozen Eighth Level Sovereign God-level artifacts was terrifyingly powerful, let alone assembled into an Artifact Combat Formation. No one wanted to meet that head-on.
After tossing out the dozen-plus artifacts, the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God turned and left, instantly escaping into the distance.
Then, with a beckoning gesture, those dozen-plus Eighth Level Sovereign God-level artifacts trembled slightly, pierced through space, and instantly shot far away, catching up to that Eighth Level Sovereign God.
"Just you wait. I will not let this rest.
Especially you, Ye brat. You wait. Sooner or later I will carve you into ten thousand pieces to vent the hatred in my heart."
The Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God shouted loudly as he fled at full speed into the distance.
His voice echoed across this vast stretch of void, clearly reaching everyone's ears.
"I'll be waiting," Ye Yunfei said flatly, his demeanor unruffled.
"Hahaha…
Young Master Ye, thank you. If you hadn't intervened, the final outcome of this battlefield would have been hard to predict."
The Hunyuan Sect's Eighth Level Sovereign God came before Ye Yunfei, looking at him with appreciative eyes as he spoke with a smile.
"Elder Song flatters me. If Elder Song hadn't taken the lead and held off that fellow earlier, this battle would not have concluded so quickly."
Ye Yunfei replied with a smile.
"Hehe…
Young Master Ye, not only is your strength exceptional, but you are also humble. Truly a true dragon among men!
You are the most prodigious existence among the younger generation I have ever seen."
That Elder Song lavished praise upon Ye Yunfei.
The other Hunyuan Sect Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods had also gathered around, each one quite excited.
This battlefield was one of the most important between the Hunyuan Sect and the Guardian Faction. Victory here would greatly influence the course of the war between the two major powers.
"Elder Song, I think we should follow up our victory. We should hurry to support the next battlefield."
Ye Yunfei spoke up.
"Young Master Ye is correct. We truly cannot rest on our laurels.
Relay my orders: have the army rest and recuperate quickly, then we set off to support other battlefields."
Elder Song nodded emphatically upon hearing Ye Yunfei's words, then issued the command.
Following Elder Song's order, the Hunyuan Sect's main army began to rest and recuperate. At the same time, a portion of the Hunyuan Sect troops cleaned up the battlefield.
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm, however, refused to stop. It was still scurrying all over the battlefield, gathering scattered spoils of war. A group of Sovereign Gods from the allied army even voluntarily followed behind to help, handing over all the collected spoils to the Dragon Silkworm.
It seemed these Sovereign Gods from the allied army had become the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm's trusted aides.
"Young Master Ye, I have just received news. In the war between our Hunyuan Sect and the Guardian Faction within the Fifth Void, our sect currently holds a temporary upper hand.
As of now, we have achieved victory on at least five or six battlefields.
However, on several of the most critical battlefields, both forces remain locked in stalemate.
Of course, this battlefield of ours was also a relatively important one, and now we have achieved a complete victory."
Inside a command tent, Elder Song, Ye Yunfei, and a group of Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods sat facing each other. Elder Song looked at Ye Yunfei and spoke.
"Young Master Ye, in your opinion, which battlefield should we support next?"
Elder Song asked again.
He had learned from the other Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods that the decisive factor behind the complete victories on the previous battlefields was Ye Yunfei.
Having also witnessed Ye Yunfei's stunning performances on the battlefield earlier, Elder Song no longer regarded him merely as a junior. Subconsciously, he now treated Ye Yunfei as a powerhouse capable of standing his own ground, his words filled with warmth.
"What is the specific situation on those most crucial battlefields right now?"
Ye Yunfei turned his gaze towards a middle-aged man and asked.
This man was a scout.
"On those most critical battlefields, both our Hunyuan Sect and the Guardian Faction have deployed massive forces, as both sides attach great importance to them.
Currently, all those battlefields are in a state of stalemate. It is estimated that victory will be hard to determine in the short term."
The middle-aged man hurriedly replied.
"I suggest we first support the other battlefields, eliminating all Guardian Faction armies there as quickly as possible.
Only then should we go to support those most crucial battlefields.
I believe if we can concentrate our forces to first eliminate all Guardian Faction armies on the other battlefields, and then gather our full strength to support the main battlefields, we will potentially gain a greater advantage."
Ye Yunfei thought for a moment, then looked at Elder Song and voiced his opinion.
"Young Master Ye, that is an excellent proposal. Very well, we shall proceed according to your plan.
Our force here will first support the less critical battlefields, wiping out all Guardian Faction forces on those battlefields at the fastest possible speed. Then we will concentrate our forces to support those most crucial battlefields."
Elder Song thought over Ye Yunfei's words, then nodded in agreement.
A short while later, after the army had rested sufficiently, Elder Song gave the order, and the army set out, traveling rapidly through the void.
The strongest in this army were Elder Song, an Eighth Level Sovereign God; dozens of Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods; and Ye Yunfei, the young prodigy whose strength far exceeded his cultivation realm.
Furthermore, apart from these leading powerhouses, the size of this army was immense. After all, it was formed from the consolidation of several armies from multiple battlefields.
After marching for a while, they finally reached the next battlefield.
The scale of this battlefield was far smaller than the one Elder Song had presided over. On this battlefield, the Hunyuan Sect side's strongest were three Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods, while the Guardian Faction side had four Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods.
The fighting so far gave the Guardian Faction a slight upper hand.
Though the Hunyuan Sect had one fewer Seventh-Level Sovereign God, each of theirs was exceptionally strong in combat. Holding three against four, they had fought for a long time without falling into a disadvantage.
With Elder Song's order, he led the massive army charging into this battlefield.
Elder Song headed straight for the Guardian Faction's four Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods, forcing them to retreat repeatedly in just a few moves.
The dozens of Hunyuan Sect Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods swarmed forward, defeating most of the Guardian Faction's Sovereign Gods on this battlefield in an extremely short time.
However, following Ye Yunfei's request, the physical bodies and Soul Bodies of the Guardian Faction's Sovereign Gods were preserved. The vast majority were subdued and sealed by Ye Yunfei, then imprisoned within the Phantom Tower.
The battle on this battlefield concluded very quickly, as the Hunyuan Sect's side held absolute superiority.
After the battle ended, Elder Song did not allow the army to rest. With a wave of his hand, he led the army towards the next battlefield.
And so, Elder Song and Ye Yunfei led the army continuously from one battlefield to another, concluding the battle on each in an extremely short time, like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
Simultaneously, the size of the army led by Elder Song and Ye Yunfei grew like a rolling snowball, as they gathered more and more Hunyuan Sect troops from the battlefields.
"Young Master Ye, your suggestion was correct. We have now eliminated Guardian Faction armies on six battlefields, and our troops from these six battlefields have been integrated. Our overall strength is already quite formidable."
Elder Song looked at the vast army behind him and couldn't help saying to Ye Yunfei.
"Young Master Ye, we are now preparing to support those relatively important battlefields."
Elder Song added.
"Good. It is indeed time to support those important battlefields."
Ye Yunfei nodded in agreement.
Then Elder Song gave the order, leading the massive army towards the next large-scale battlefield.
Elder Song directed that all the spoils collected from the previous battlefields be distributed for use by the entire army.
Ye Yunfei's dozen-plus avatars diligently concocted pills inside the Phantom Tower without pause, continuously providing large quantities of medicinal pills to the army's Sovereign Gods, especially the Sovereign Gods.
During this period, many Sovereign Gods in the army rapidly broke through to new realms because they refined the Divine Pills given to them by Ye Yunfei.
Of course, the reason these Sovereign Gods could break through so quickly was not only due to the Divine Pills, but also because they had been engaged in high-intensity combat this entire time.
"Reporting to Elder Song and Young Master Ye, another eleven Fifth-Level Sovereign Gods are about to break through."
A Sixth-Level Sovereign God came before Elder Song and Ye Yunfei to report.
"Have them find a nearby location to undergo their tribulations.
Also, dispatch some Sixth-Level Sovereign Gods to protect them. Instruct them to stay behind and focus on their breakthrough. After they successfully break through, they can catch up with the main force to join the battles."
Elder Song instructed.
"Take these Divine Pills for them. They can aid their breakthrough and allow them to quickly consolidate their realm after successfully advancing.
Also, have them refine these artifacts after they succeed."
Ye Yunfei waved a hand, sending out some Divine Pills and artifacts as he spoke to the Sixth-Level Sovereign God.
Then Elder Song and Ye Yunfei continued forward with the army.
Actually, this had become a frequent occurrence recently. Within this army, there were Sovereign Gods breaking through almost every day.
