"Glad you still have some conscience left."
Da Di Daozhang was thrilled.
Ye Yunfei then returned to the secret chamber and entered the Phantom Tower to begin pill refining.
Half a day later.
Ye Yunfei emerged from the Phantom Tower and walked out of the secret chamber.
Da Di Daozhang had been waiting outside the whole time. The moment he saw Ye Yunfei appear, he immediately rushed forward.
Ye Yunfei flicked his finger.
A jade vial flew out and landed before Da Di Daozhang.
The elder grabbed the vial and hurriedly opened it.
"It really is the Energy-Gathering Yang-Ascending Pill!"
Da Di Daozhang trembled all over with excitement.
"Wonderful!
Lately, the corpse energy on my body has been growing thicker; I've even started growing corpse hair.
Now that I have the Energy-Gathering Yang-Ascending Pill, it's not a problem anymore!"
Unable to wait any longer, Da Di Daozhang immediately took out a precious pill and popped it into his mouth, swallowing it down.
"Your body has been preserved in a corpse-like state for far too long. The corpse energy it has accumulated is too dense.
Consuming the Energy-Gathering Yang-Ascending Pill can indeed dispel the corpse energy from your flesh.
However, to allow your body to fully recover to its peak state from before, you will need at least twenty to thirty years of recuperation," Ye Yunfei said.
"That's right.
Expelling the corpse energy is only the first step. Plenty of time will be needed for recuperation afterwards." Da Di Daozhang nodded helplessly.
"I have a type of precious pill that can restore your body to its peak state in a short period," Ye Yunfei suddenly said.
"What pill?!"
Da Di Daozhang's body jolted, his eyes lighting up as he stared at Ye Yunfei.
"Snow Soul Pill," Ye Yunfei replied.
"Snow Soul Pill… I've never heard of it." Da Di Daozhang was slightly taken aback.
"Don't forget, I'm a ninth-grade precious pill master. The pills I know about, you may not," Ye Yunfei chuckled.
"True.
What precious herbs are needed to refine this Snow Soul Pill? I'll go find them, and you can refine it for me!" Da Di Daozhang asked anxiously.
Ye Yunfei didn't speak, merely watching Da Di Daozhang with a faint, enigmatic smile.
"What are your conditions? Tell me!"
Realizing Ye Yunfei's meaning, Da Di Daozhang gritted his teeth and spoke.
"The same conditions as last time when you asked me to refine the Energy-Gathering Yang-Ascending Pill.
Instruct me in earth augury studies. Tell me where I can find a large quantity of Soul Stones. Inform me of the location of the Tianyou Tomb's headquarters on the Tianxuan Continent. And take me into the God's Fall Land," Ye Yunfei stated calmly.
"You…! Fine, I agree!"
Da Di Daozhang first flared up in anger, then nodded reluctantly.
"How about this.
First, tell me where the Tianyou Tomb's headquarters on the Tianxuan Continent is," Ye Yunfei proposed.
"Fine."
Da Di Daozhang pointed a finger, sending a strand of Soul Power information to Ye Yunfei.
"Tianyou Tomb, the score between us is due to be settled," Ye Yunfei sneered coldly.
The Tianyou Tomb had sent assassins after Ye Yunfei multiple times, a grudge Ye Yunfei naturally intended to repay.
"Ye Yunfei, when will you refine the Snow Soul Pill for me?
Don't you dare renege!" Da Di Daozhang questioned.
"No need to be anxious.
I will refine it for you.
Wait until you've finished consuming this vial of Energy-Gathering Yang-Ascending Pills and completely purged the corpse energy from your body. Only then will consuming the Snow Soul Pill be effective," Ye Yunfei replied.
"Alright then," Da Di Daozhang said.
Half a day later.
Central Continent.
On a piece of desolate land, rarely visited by human traces.
Suddenly, a figure flew rapidly from the distant horizon, stopping above a certain spot on the ground.
It was Ye Yunfei.
"Who would have thought that the Tianyou Tomb, with its esteemed reputation, would actually build its headquarters in such a remote place," Ye Yunfei sneered.
As soon as the words left his mouth.
Ye Yunfei's right foot stomped down fiercely in mid-air.
Boom…
Ye Yunfei's right foot continuously enlarged, instantly transforming into a massive foot that resembled a sky-pillar, descending from the heavens to stomp upon the ground.
A torrential wave of physical power poured out, pouring into the earth beneath this land.
Boom…
The entire land was rocked by violent tremors, sending dust billowing and rock and dirt flying skyward.
Ye Yunfei's right foot stomped frantically upon the ground, each footfall leaving behind a huge, deep pit.
After just a few breaths of time.
A massive ground fissure was forcibly ripped open across this patch of land.
This fissure spanned a thousand meters in length, was hundreds of meters wide, and plunged over two thousand meters deep!
At the bottom of the fissure, an underground palace was revealed!
This underground palace was the headquarters of Tianyou Tomb!
By now, the occupants inside had long been alerted.
"What happened?!"
"Who is it?!"
...
From within the palace, numerous fierce, shadowy figures surged out, shooting into the sky.
These were all assassins!
Each one exuded a chilling aura.
"Die!"
Ye Yunfei let out a cold laugh.
Boom…
A massive sole descended from the sky, stomping down towards those assassins who had just rushed out.
How terrifying was Ye Yunfei's physical power?
Any assassin who was even slightly grazed by Ye Yunfei's foot exploded into a cloud of blood mist.
Puff, puff…
Assassins burst apart like fireworks, their bodies continuously detonating.
In moments, over a dozen assassins had been shocked to death.
At this moment.
Deep within the underground palace.
Inside a spacious hall.
A black-robed elder sat cross-legged in the central position.
Dozens of Grotto-Heaven Realm experts were seated on either side.
"Tomb Master, that Teleportation Altar has been destroyed by Ye Yunfei.
Now, those of us from the Xuanhuang Star Domain are all trapped here and cannot return.
What are we to do.
Tomb Master, you have been stationed on the Tianxuan Continent for hundreds of years and are intimately familiar with it. You must think of a solution for us all," a blue-robed elder spoke up, his tone filled with worry.
"That's right.
Given Ye Yunfei's temperament and strength, he definitely will not rest. He will hunt us down everywhere.
Staying on the Tianxuan Continent is not safe for us," another plump elder sighed.
The other Grotto-Heaven Realm experts also spoke up one after another, each with concern etched on their faces.
"Everyone, during this period, Ye Yunfei is bound to hunt you down wherever you are.
Therefore, don't panic. Find a place to hide first.
I have already contacted our headquarters. They are currently devising a way to help everyone leave the Tianxuan Continent.
As soon as a method is found, you will be notified immediately," suddenly, the Tomb Master spoke.
"Alright then.
Tomb Master, as long as your Tianyou Tomb has a way to help us leave the Tianxuan Continent, we will certainly reward you handsomely," the other Grotto-Heaven Realm cultivators all voiced their stance.
Everyone knew that the Tianyou Tomb specialized in taking money to handle matters; they never did business at a loss.
"Very well," the Tomb Master nodded with satisfaction.
Just then.
Boom…
The entire underground palace began to shake violently.
In the hall, the Tomb Master and those Grotto-Heaven Realm experts all stood up simultaneously, a sense of foreboding rising in their hearts.
"Let's go!
Take a look!"
The Tomb Master moved, charging out.
The other Grotto-Heaven Realm experts exchanged glances, then steeled themselves and followed.
Swish, swish…
Sharp figures rushed out from the underground palace.
Ye Yunfei's Soul Power swept over them, sensing that within this palace, there were at least over three thousand assassins.
Among them, over a hundred possessed Grotto-Heaven Realm strength!
"No wonder the Tianyou Tomb could run rampant on the Tianxuan Continent for so long.
With this level of power, even if the five top forces of the Central Continent joined forces, they might not necessarily be able to defeat the Tianyou Tomb," Ye Yunfei couldn't help but sigh.
"However, from now on, the Tianyou Tomb shall no longer exist on the Tianxuan Continent."
The look in Ye Yunfei's eyes grew thick with murderous intent.
