"Report! I've just received word that the Prison Master of the Guardian Faction, along with several core Elders, has left their headquarters. It appears they intend to reinforce a certain battlefield."
At that moment, a scout hurriedly arrived outside the palace and shouted his report.
"Oh? So that fellow can't sit still any longer?"
Upon hearing the scout's report, the tall, imposing elder's gaze sharpened instantly.
"In that case, I can't remain idle either. Immediately notify several Elders; we shall prepare to make an appearance as well."
The elder continued.
Not long after, several figures radiating powerful energy auras emerged from the headquarters of the Hunyuan Sect, leading a contingent of troops.
"I have a feeling that the war in this Void will conclude soon, and our Hunyuan Sect will emerge victorious," a gaunt-looking elder said, his eyes scanning the misty void ahead after exiting the sect's headquarters.
"That would be excellent. If we can win this war in the Fifth Void, it will undoubtedly influence the trajectory of the larger conflict between our Hunyuan Sect and the Guardian Faction across the entire Chaotic Void Sea, securing greater odds of victory for our side," the tall elder replied with a smile.
"It is time to repay the sea of blood and deep enmity our Hunyuan Sect has endured for so many years," the gaunt elder sighed softly.
Meanwhile, on the battlefield, Ye Yunfei, accompanied by twenty Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods, continued to hunt down Sovereign Gods of the Guardian Faction.
By now, hundreds of Guardian Faction Sovereign Gods from this battlefield had been suppressed, sealed, and imprisoned within Phantom Tower.
The fighting on this battlefield was also drawing to a close.
Only a small portion of the Guardian Faction's Sovereign Gods were still struggling to hold on, and their army had already collapsed into a routed state.
The Eighth Level Sovereign God of the Guardian Faction, under the combined assault of the two Eighth Level Sovereign Gods from Hunyuan Sect, was now completely at a disadvantage.
Although he could still manage a defense, it was clear that continued fighting would lead to inevitable defeat.
"Young Master Ye, the remaining number of Sovereign Gods on the Guardian Faction's side is now very small and poses little threat," Elder Gan said to Ye Yunfei excitedly.
"Now is the time to end this battle decisively. Split up and lead our forces to encircle and slaughter the Guardian Faction's troops. The more we kill, the better."
Ye Yunfei glanced across the battlefield, nodded, and gave the order.
The majority of the Guardian Faction's somewhat stronger Sovereign Gods had already been suppressed and sealed by Ye Yunfei and the twenty Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods. The few stragglers who remained had completely lost their will to fight, constantly retreating and looking for opportunities to flee.
Ye Yunfei's figure flashed as he pursued a Fourth-Grade Sovereign God with astonishing speed, delivering a punch from behind. The terrifying force of his fist instantly suppressed the Fourth-Grade Sovereign God, rendering him immobile.
Ye Yunfei's physical strength and divine power were already sufficient to confront Sixth or even Seventh Level Sovereign Gods; dealing with a Fourth-Grade Sovereign God resulted in instant, absolute suppression.
After sealing this Fourth-Grade Sovereign God, Ye Yunfei employed his movement technique to continuously pursue other Guardian Faction Sovereign Gods trying to flee the battlefield.
Ye Yunfei's movement speed was simply too fast. Every Sovereign God he targeted was caught from behind in an instant, then suppressed and sealed.
The twenty Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods who had been acting alongside Ye Yunfei had now dispersed, each leading their subordinate forces to chase down and slaughter Guardian Faction troops across the battlefield.
With the addition of these Seventh-Level Sovereign Gods to the fray, the Hunyuan Sect's forces were like a tiger gaining wings, sweeping across the battlefield like an autumn wind scattering fallen leaves, massacring Guardian Faction troops on a large scale.
The battle had now reached a point where the Guardian Faction's army was utterly routed.
Ye Yunfei continued to pursue fleeing Guardian Faction Sovereign Gods. He would not let a single Sovereign God escape.
Even a First Level Sovereign God was chased down and attacked.
For Ye Yunfei and Huang Chang, the physical body and Soul Body of every Sovereign God were valuable cultivation resources.
"Now it's that fellow's turn."
When the number of Guardian Faction Sovereign Gods remaining on this battlefield dwindled to a handful, Ye Yunfei suddenly turned, his gaze settling on the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God, a cold smile playing on his lips.
His figure flickered as he appeared near the area where the three Eighth Level Sovereign Gods were locked in combat.
The energies released by the three Eighth Level Sovereign Gods were terrifying, deterring any ordinary being from approaching. Yet, Ye Yunfei remained completely unaffected.
Immediately upon arrival, Ye Yunfei unleashed Heart Sword techniques and Soul Force Martial Arts, directing his attacks at the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God.
"Ye bastard!"
The Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God, struck by Ye Yunfei's assault, immediately shot a furious glare his way and roared.
Ye Yunfei did not reply, his face expressionless and cold as he continuously employed various Heart Force and Soul Force techniques, launching an unending stream of attacks against the Eighth Level Sovereign God.
Ye Yunfei's current Soul Power level was entirely equivalent to that of a standard Eighth Level Sovereign God, and the Soul Force Martial Arts he wielded were exceptionally advanced. Therefore, his attacks quickly caused significant interference for the Eighth Level Sovereign God.
Already struggling to hold his ground against two opponents of equal rank, the additional onslaught of Ye Yunfei's Heart Force and Soul Force techniques left him in an increasingly dire situation.
He retreated repeatedly, fury burning within him, until he was finally struck by a combined blow from the two Hunyuan Sect Eighth Level Sovereign Gods, sending him flying backward.
"Two Seniors, now! Let us three join forces and finish this fellow off!"
Seeing the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God sent flying high into the air, Ye Yunfei immediately sent a message to the two Hunyuan Sect Eighth Level Sovereign Gods.
The next moment, Ye Yunfei retrieved three Gravity Spheres and hurled them forward.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Simultaneously, the three Gravity Spheres released terrifying gravitational energy, instantly enveloping that area of the void and making the space impossibly heavy.
"Such dreadful gravitational force!"
Suddenly subjected to the suppression of three Gravity Spheres, the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God felt his body become immensely heavy in an instant, as if burdened by countless divine mountains.
"It's gravity energy!"
The two Hunyuan Sect Eighth Level Sovereign Gods were not targeted by the suppression, but they could still sense the terrifying gravitational force pouring from the three spheres, their expressions changing slightly.
"Your life ends here!"
With a sword in his right hand and a fist clenched in his left, Ye Yunfei charged forward the moment the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God came under suppression, unleashing a frenzied assault.
"Master, I'll assist you!"
Hu Miao appeared beside Ye Yunfei at the same time. The Primal True Fox Monument shot out from above her head, radiating formidable illusion energy.
Since obtaining this Primal True Fox Monument, Hu Miao had constantly refined and absorbed the energy within while comprehending the various ancient core legacies of the Ancient Heavenly Fox race inscribed upon it.
Her illusion skills were growing increasingly potent, allowing her to unleash greater power from the monument.
Rumble...
The Primal True Fox Monument expanded continuously, generating dense layers of illusory realms that swarmed around the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God like masses of transparent soap bubbles.
Illusion after illusion exerted a powerful effect, attempting to draw the Eighth Level Sovereign God into their depths.
For a moment, his Soul Body suffered severe disorientation and confusion.
"This is bad! This fox's illusion techniques are too potent! I almost fell for it!"
A look of shock appeared on the Eighth Level Sovereign God's face.
Meanwhile, Ye Yunfei and the two Hunyuan Sect Eighth Level Sovereign Gods had all launched their frenzied attacks.
Though he could still resist, the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God, suppressed by the three Gravity Spheres, found his combat power severely weakened.
"Ye bastard, I never expected you to possess such a special treasure containing gravitational energy," the Eighth Level Sovereign God growled venomously, his face pale with fury as he felt the relentless gravitational pressure in the surrounding space.
"Your time of death has arrived."
Ye Yunfei's voice was icy cold. After speaking, he suddenly stretched out his hand, rapidly swinging it towards the Eighth Level Sovereign God.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Every swing of Ye Yunfei's hand summoned a fierce gale. Rushing wind energy and wind laws rapidly converged and transformed into invisible Wind Blades that slashed towards the Eighth Level Sovereign God.
Each swing produced another invisible Wind Blade, and blade after blade endlessly hacked away at him.
"What kind of martial arts skills are these?"
Witnessing these invisible Wind Blades Ye Yunfei unleashed, the Eighth Level Sovereign God was somewhat startled.
Such sophisticated techniques harnessing wind energy and wind laws were exceedingly rare within the Chaotic Void Sea.
What was even more astonishing was that after these invisible Wind Blades were dispersed, they would quickly coalesce anew, forming fresh blades that automatically resumed their attacks.
Already outmatched, subjected to the suppression of the three Gravity Spheres, and now assaulted by Ye Yunfei's array of advanced techniques, the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God became even more embattled.
Soon, he was struck once more, his body hurled high into the air.
With a thought, Ye Yunfei commanded the three Gravity Spheres to surge forward, continuing to press down on the Eighth Level Sovereign God.
Sword in his right hand and fist clenched in his left, Ye Yunfei followed closely. The two Hunyuan Sect Eighth Level Sovereign Gods also recognized the rare opportunity, simultaneously leaping into the air to flank the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God from left and right.
Already wounded, besieged by three powerful foes, and weighed down by the three Gravity Spheres, his situation grew increasingly desperate.
After holding out for mere moments longer, he was sent flying once again by Ye Yunfei and the two Hunyuan Sect Eighth Level Sovereign Gods.
"Damnation! I must leave this place immediately, or the consequences will be dire."
Utter panic seized the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God. He knew escape was his only option, or the outcome would be severe.
With this thought, the Eighth Level Sovereign God abruptly threw out several magic treasures, activating them simultaneously to blast towards Ye Yunfei and the two Hunyuan Sect Eighth Level Sovereign Gods.
"He's trying to flee! Stop him!"
Ye Yunfei roared. The longsword in his hand cleaved forward, knocking away a treasure hurtling towards him. With a wave of his hand, the three Gravity Spheres howled forth from three different directions towards the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God. The vast, surging gravitational energy they released turned the surrounding space as heavy as if filled with lead.
Throughout the entire battle, the Guardian Faction's Eighth Level Sovereign God had been suffering under the suppression of these three Gravity Spheres, a torment almost beyond bearing.
