Boom! Boom!
At that moment, more than thirty Grotto-Heaven Realm experts of the Shenfeng Sect all erupted simultaneously, each unleashing the most powerful cultivation techniques and martial skills they had trained in their entire lives, charging at Ye Yunfei.
"Before me, you are not even qualified to fight desperately," Ye Yunfei shook his head with a cold sneer.
As soon as his words fell...
Clang! Clang!
The Five Elements Spirit Swords formed the Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation, like five dazzling swimming dragons, and already collided with those Shenfeng Sect Grotto-Heaven Realm experts.
Ah! Ah!
Scream after scream rang out continuously.
One Grotto-Heaven Realm expert after another was shredded to pieces by the sharp sword energy.
Ye Yunfei was now at the Fifth Level of the Grotto-Heaven Realm, and the current Five Elements Spirit Swords had been reforged using over a hundred superior-grade flood artifacts.
The Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation unleashed now—how could these Grotto-Heaven Realm experts possibly withstand it?
It was like slaughtering chickens and butchering dogs!
Thwack! Thwack!
As the Five Elements Spirit Swords swept by, in the blink of an eye, nearly all of the Shenfeng Sect's thirty-plus Grotto-Heaven Realm experts were eradicated, leaving only their leader standing there, his face deathly pale.
Ye Yunfei pointed a finger again.
Hum...
The Five Elements Spirit Swords plunged into the ranks of the Shenfeng Sect personnel, shredding everything in their path into a bloody pulp.
Ah! Ah!
The Shenfeng Sect members screamed continuously; within moments, they were all cut down!
"Dead, all dead. Our Shenfeng Sect... is finished..." Only the Shenfeng Sect Leader remained, standing amidst a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, his expression dazed, muttering to himself.
Ye Yunfei stood with his hands clasped behind his back. The Five Elements Spirit Swords flew back, circling his body with a low hum.
Around them, countless warriors stood rooted like wooden chickens, the scene utterly dead silent.
"The Shenfeng Sect is truly finished!" Every person present couldn't help but tremble inwardly.
"I told you, before me, you are not qualified to fight desperately," Ye Yunfei said coolly, his indifferent gaze fixed on the Shenfeng Sect Leader.
With Ye Yunfei's current strength, even meeting a late-stage Minor Core Formation Realm expert would give him a fighting chance. Fighting against these Grotto-Heaven Realm warriors or below now felt somewhat like bullying.
"Ye Yunfei! You slaughtered the elites of my Shenfeng Sect, destroyed our foundation built over centuries! I will fight you to the death!" The Shenfeng Sect Leader suddenly raised his head, his eyes bloodshot like a wounded beast, roaring fiercely.
Boom…
A powerful wave of spiritual energy pressure rolled out from his body.
However, before he could launch his attack—
"Die!"
Ye Yunfei pointed a finger.
The Five Elements Spirit Swords swept over, raising layers of sword waves, instantly shredding the Shenfeng Sect Leader into a mist of flesh, blood, and bone fragments.
The Shenfeng Sect Leader had no chance to fight back whatsoever!
"Your turn," Ye Yunfei said flatly, his gaze sweeping over the members of the other three top forces.
As soon as the words left his mouth...
"Kill!"
Ye Yunfei roared, taking the initiative to attack.
Boom...
Ye Yunfei's two fists continuously enlarged, resembling two small mountains as they pounded forward.
He unleashed the first eight moves of the True Demon God-Slayer Fist in succession, from Demon-Slayer Penetration all the way to Dark Devil Fist.
Every single punch inevitably blasted a large group of people.
Whether it was Grotto-Heaven Realm experts or warriors of ordinary strength, anyone touched by Ye Yunfei's fists would meet certain death.
Simultaneously, the Five Elements Spirit Swords also formed the Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation, slicing through the crowd like a giant meat grinder. Wherever they passed, heads rolled and blood splattered.
"Run!"
"Ye Yunfei! I'll fight you to the death!"
"Commander Ye! Spare us!"
Facing Ye Yunfei's bloody slaughter, members of the three top forces—the Fengyun Family, the Xiao Clan, and the Tianyan Sect—some fled, some fought desperately, and even more fell to their knees begging for mercy.
Yet, Ye Yunfei showed no mercy, his eyes sharp with murderous intent. Moments later, all enemies were eradicated!
Looking around, severed limbs and pulverized flesh littered the ground. Among the forces of the four top factions of Central Continent, not a single survivor remained!
"These four top forces are completely finished!" This scene made countless warriors watching from the surrounding hills and fields tremble with fear, their backs turning cold.
Not long ago, these four top forces had arrived with menacing momentum, revealing a foundation that shocked everyone, intending to destroy Hudao Academy.
Yet, now, in mere moments, Ye Yunfei had casually exterminated them.
Anyone could see that throughout the entire process, Ye Yunfei was relaxed and effortless, as if playing a game—he hadn't used his full strength at all!
"All the people these four top forces brought here today were their elites! Yet Commander Ye alone slaughtered them all. This is truly a case of one person suppressing four sects!" In the distance, City Lord Gu said in a trembling voice.
"After this battle, these four top forces of Central Continent are effectively finished. From now on, Hudao Academy will become the most powerful force on the Tianxuan Continent—the sole super sect! And Commander Ye will unequivocally become the foremost person on the Tianxuan Continent!" An old man with white beard and hair standing beside City Lord Gu lamented.
"I can already imagine how today's events will shock the world," another elder shook his head with a bitter smile.
And indeed, the facts proved true.
Later that day, news of what happened at Hudao Academy spread throughout the Tianxuan Continent at astonishing speed.
The entire continent was shaken by it!
Upon hearing the name Ye Yunfei, everyone trembled in fear!
Then, the details of how Ye Yunfei slaughtered the forces of the four top factions were continuously spread and embellished, growing more miraculous with each telling.
Finally, the version spread was that Ye Yunfei had simply brandished his swords and, with a single move, eradicated all members of the four top forces!
Moreover, this version was believed by the majority.
Because Ye Yunfei had once, in a single battle, slain over four thousand Grotto-Heaven Realm experts of the Otherworldly Army—his reputation from that battle was even more awe-inspiring.
Now, annihilating these so-called top factions—that was nothing.
Back at Hudao Academy...
"Dean Xie, you can clean up the battlefield now," Ye Yunfei said, a smile on his face as he looked at Dean Xie, having retracted the Five Elements Spirit Swords.
At this moment, Ye Yunfei had shed the terrifying murderous aura of moments ago, showing a hint of sunny disposition.
This was always Ye Yunfei's character.
Towards enemies, he was a demon.
Towards his own people, he was amiable and without any pretensions.
"Alright! I'll have people clean up immediately!" Dean Xie Changkong stared dumbfounded at the corpses strewn everywhere. Only after a long while did he snap out of it and respond.
"We won!"
"Dean Ye is invincible!"
...
The personnel of Hudao Academy then cheered in unison.
"Commander Ye, your combat strength is truly astonishing," City Lord Gu Chengzhu approached Ye Yunfei, saying with a bitter smile.
"Just average. City Lord Gu, this time, thank you for standing by Hudao Academy at the critical moment," Ye Yunfei replied with a smile.
"Mainly because these four factions acted too excessively. I couldn't stand it. However, they have now received the punishment they deserved." City Lord Gu swept his gaze over the ground littered with severed limbs and flowing rivers of blood, letting out a soft sigh.
"Dean Xie, the Shenfeng Sect, Fengyun Family, Xiao Clan, and Tianyan Sect—these four factions have no reason to continue existing. Wipe them out," Ye Yunfei said, looking at Xie Changkong.
Xie Changkong's eyelids twitched slightly. He understood Ye Yunfei's meaning: it was a call for extermination, to leave no survivors.
The men sent to Hudao Academy by these four top factions were only part of their forces. There were still many members left in their headquarters and various branch outposts.
"Commander Ye, don't worry. I will personally lead men to completely eradicate these four factions," Xie Changkong said.
City Lord Gu stood to the side, his expression complex. He seemed to want to say something but ultimately kept silent.
He understood the enmity between Hudao Academy and these four factions was too deep; persuasion would be useless.
