"According to legend, whoever could obtain the sword dao inheritance contained within the Sword Enlightenment Stone might become the swordsman with the highest level of sword dao on the Sword Realm Continent. Looking at it now, it's indeed true! Ye Yunfei has only just obtained the Sword Enlightenment Stone, yet he can unleash such terrifying combat power. It's simply astounding."
Numerous remnant souls across the Sword Realm Continent discussed with delighted surprise.
"Now it's your turn."
After slaughtering the entire Blade Realm army, Ye Yunfei stopped, slowly turned around, and cast his gaze towards the Chaos Gods of the Blade Realm as he spoke.
"Little beast surnamed Ye, you've killed so many of our Blade Realm's blade practitioners! This blood feud runs deep. Prepare to endure the wrath of our Blade Realm!"
A Chaos God from the Blade Realm, holding a long blade in his hand and erupting with rolling blade light from his entire body, charged towards Ye Yunfei with great strides.
Ye Yunfei stood there, holding the longsword, a cold smile on his face.
With a boom, that Chaos God suddenly soared into the air, gripping his blade with both hands. The vast blade dao energy within his body surged like a cosmic torrent into that long blade. Then, with a single stroke, he slashed towards Ye Yunfei.
With another boom, the space where Ye Yunfei stood was instantly cleaved in two. An enormous blade light instantly appeared above Ye Yunfei's head.
Ye Yunfei felt no fear whatsoever. Holding the longsword, he only felt his body filled with the purest, most supreme sword dao energy in the world. The longsword in his hand seemed capable of destroying everything.
This feeling of invincibility brought Ye Yunfei immense confidence. Even facing those dozen or so Chaos Gods from the Blade Realm, Ye Yunfei did not retreat a single step.
Just as that massive blade light was about to strike Ye Yunfei's head, the longsword in Ye Yunfei's hand suddenly raised, and he struck out with a single slash.
A sword radiance appeared. *Clang!* It directly cleaved that Chaos God's long blade in two. Then, the sword radiance continued unabated, sweeping straight across that Chaos God's body.
"How is this possible?"
That Chaos God was stunned.
At this moment, a sea-like blade dao energy surged throughout his body. Countless invisible chains of blade dao laws rattled and swung around his form, creating a powerful blade domain. He appeared immensely powerful. But suddenly, he stopped there, frozen in his previous attacking posture, unmoving like a statue.
Next, the terrifying blade dao energy and blade dao laws swirling around his body gradually calmed and extinguished as well.
Finally, still maintaining his offensive stance, holding the broken half of his blade, blood flowed from his seven orifices, and an expression of utter disbelief appeared on his face.
"How...how can this be? Brat, you actually cleaved both my flesh body and my Soul Body in half with a single slash. How in the world did you do it?"
This Blade Realm Chaos God spoke in a dazed voice.
The next moment, Ye Yunfei flicked his sleeve and collected both his flesh body and Soul Body.
Both the flesh body and Soul Body of this Chaos God had been cleaved in half. Moreover, a dreadful sword dao law was now coiled within his flesh and soul, preventing any possible reorganization.
In fact, this Blade Realm Chaos God had already suffered a mortal wound.
"Your turn."
Ye Yunfei raised his head, his gaze landing on the other dozen or so Blade Realm Chaos Gods, and gave a cold laugh.
As soon as the words left his mouth, Ye Yunfei's figure shot forward.
Supported by terrifying sword dao energy and laws, the sword dao movement technique Ye Yunfei executed reached an extreme speed, so fast that those dozen Blade Realm Chaos Gods couldn't react.
Ye Yunfei instantly appeared in front of these dozen-odd Blade Realm Chaos Gods. The longsword in his hand slashed out repeatedly—sometimes one slash per target, sometimes two.
"Stop!"
Xing Wu only saw a blur before his eyes before realizing Ye Yunfei, gripping his longsword, had already arrived before them, these Blade Realm Chaos Gods, slashing repeatedly. Knowing things had gone wrong, he roared.
The Black Demon Blade Stele transformed into a black long blade and slashed towards Ye Yunfei, trying to stop him. But it was already too late.
Apart from Xing Wu, all the other Blade Realm Chaos Gods had already been cleaved into pieces by Ye Yunfei, each suffering mortal wounds.
Ye Yunfei reached out and grabbed, pulling over the bodies and Soul Bodies of over a dozen Chaos Gods.
The reason Ye Yunfei hadn't directly killed these Blade Realm Chaos Gods was that he wanted to obtain their flesh bodies and Soul Bodies. To Ye Yunfei, these Blade Realm Chaos Gods were extremely precious cultivation resources.
"How can this be possible? After obtaining the Sword Enlightenment Stone, this brat's combat power has reached such a terrifying level!"
At this moment, Zhou Duantian and the other higher-ups of the Divine Sword Sect were both shocked and furious.
Ye Yunfei's speed in killing was simply too fast. Originally, they had intended to come to assist, but Ye Yunfei had wiped out those dozen Blade Realm Chaos Gods in an instant. These higher-ups of the Divine Sword Sect had no time to rescue them.
"Sect Master, we're in serious trouble. After obtaining the Sword Enlightenment Stone, that little beast Ye Yunfei possesses such horrifying combat power. Now the Blade Realm army is finished, leaving only Xing Wu. Our Divine Sword Sect must quickly plan an exit strategy."
Mo Chenzi stood beside Zhou Duantian, speaking in a trembling voice.
"So that's how it is. I understand now."
Shoudi Laoren had already confirmed one thing. He had been watching Ye Yunfei's process of exterminating the Blade Realm army. By now, he had confirmed a conjecture in his heart.
Before leaving, he had asked Ye Yunfei to try contacting the Heavenly Net Sword God's will. He understood that Ye Yunfei must have succeeded.
"This battle, we have already won!"
Shoudi Laoren revealed a smile.
"Little beast! You actually killed so many of our Blade Realm's blade practitioners! You deserve death!"
At this moment, Xing Wu saw that all the Chaos Gods by his side had been slain by Ye Yunfei. He was shocked and furious, while also feeling a trace of panic.
The terrifying combat power Ye Yunfei had displayed was something he was beginning to have difficulty comprehending.
"Old thing, now it's your turn!"
Ye Yunfei's gaze fell upon Xing Wu as he said coldly.
"Years ago, your Blade Realm army invaded our Sword Realm Continent, bringing enormous disaster. Now, on behalf of the Sword Realm Continent, I will collect some interest from your Blade Realm."
Ye Yunfei continued speaking, then slowly raised the longsword in his hand and pointed it at Xing Wu.
"Little beast surnamed Ye, do you think you can kill me? How dare you kill so many of our Blade Realm's blade practitioners! You will face retribution. Prepare to endure the wrath of our Blade Realm!"
Xing Wu, gripping the Black Demon Blade Stele—which had transformed into a black long blade—with both hands, roared madly.
Then he suddenly initiated an attack. Without regard for cost, he poured the blade dao energy within his body into the Black Demon Blade Stele in his hands. Then, raising it high with both arms, he fiercely slashed towards Ye Yunfei.
His slashing motion appeared simple, but in reality, he was executing a highly sophisticated blade technique. This slash represented the pinnacle of his blade dao attainment in this lifetime.
With a boom, a thick black blade light appeared above the Sword Realm Continent. Densely packed special symbols related to blade dao civilization were inscribed upon the blade light.
*Rumble…* Everyone saw an enormous black blade light appear high in the sky above the Sword Realm Continent, slowly descending to slash down towards Ye Yunfei. The entire heavens and earth were roiling with ocean-like waves of blade dao energy.
Facing the slowly descending black blade light above his head, Ye Yunfei gave a cold smile. Not dodging or evading, he raised the longsword in his hand and simply delivered a light, effortless slash. His movement appeared calm and unhurried, as if he wasn't performing any sword technique but merely casually swinging his sword.
The next moment, a sword radiance shot skyward. *Clang!* It directly cleaved the enormous black blade light hovering above the Sword Realm Continent in two. Then, that sword radiance continued slashing towards Xing Wu.
"Not good!"
Xing Wu knew things had taken a disastrous turn. How could he dare to stay any longer? He turned and fled, for he had already sensed a threat of death.
He had gone to great lengths to cultivate himself into a Senior Chaos God and had no desire to perish here.
In his desperation, Xing Wu employed a blade dao movement technique, transforming into a sharp blade radiance that shot towards the distant void at astonishing speed.
"Little beast surnamed Ye, you wait! I will definitely return to settle today's score with you!"
While fleeing into the distance, Xing Wu turned his head and roared, his words brimming with towering resentment.
He had originally led a massive Blade Realm army to the Sword Realm, believing he could crush and annihilate everything with absolute superiority. Yet he never imagined he would end up in such a state. He simply couldn't accept this reality. His hatred for Ye Yunfei was filled with an indescribable, overwhelming resentment.
"I'm afraid you won't get the chance."
Ye Yunfei watched the rapidly departing Xing Wu and spoke faintly. Then, raising the longsword in his hand and pointing it in the direction Xing Wu had fled, he delivered another gentle slash.
With a boom, a sword radiance appeared and gave chase towards Xing Wu.
"Not good!"
Xing Wu, sensing the surging sword radiance approaching from behind, was scared out of his wits. In desperation, he could only hurl the black long blade in his hand back towards the pursuing attack.
That black long blade instantly reverted to a massive black stele, blocking the slash Ye Yunfei had sent after him.
*Clang!* The sword radiance Ye Yunfei had sent out collided with that black stele, instantly igniting a shower of dazzling sparks.
"Where do you think you're escaping?"
Not wanting to let Xing Wu off so easily, Ye Yunfei moved, soaring into the air as he pursued.
But by this time, Xing Wu had already rushed out of the void occupied by the Sword Realm Continent.
"He actually got away."
Ye Yunfei knew that Xing Wu, as a Senior Chaos God, had fled the Sword Realm Continent's space. To chase him now would require considerable effort. Moreover, Ye Yunfei couldn't determine whether, holding the longsword left by the Heavenly Net Sword God, he would still be able to unleash the same terrifying combat power after leaving the Sword Realm Continent's spatial boundary. Thus, Ye Yunfei did not continue the pursuit.
"Legend has it that the Black Demon Blade Stele was left behind by the ancient Blade Demon Ancestor. It's a very famous magical treasure in the Blade Realm. Quickly, retrieve it."
Shoudi Laoren sent a Sound Transmission to Ye Yunfei.
Ye Yunfei flickered and arrived beside that black stele. However, sensing the threat from Ye Yunfei, the black stele transformed into a streak of black light, attempting to escape.
The longsword in Ye Yunfei's hand slashed out. Extremely terrifying sword dao energy instantly suppressed that black stele in place.
"Go and deal with those Divine Sword Sect fellows first. I'll help you keep this blade stele suppressed. The Divine Sword Sect members are trying to flee."
At this moment, Shoudi Laoren sent another Sound Transmission to Ye Yunfei. Then, with a flicker of his figure, he arrived beside the black stele.
"Wanting to flee at this point...it's already too late."
Ye Yunfei slowly turned to face the personnel of the Divine Sword Sect and spoke coldly.
