Roar… Roar…
One Void Beast after another pounced to attack.
“Prepare for battle!
Everyone, protect Su Ye!”
Jiang Yanran cried out sharply.
In her mind, Ye Yunfei’s strength was only at the early-stage Minor Mystic Pill Realm. No matter how capable his combat power was, it had its limits.
The reason she had sought Ye Yunfei to come to Shattered Valley together was purely because she had heard that he excelled in a certain type of movement technique related to spatial energy.
“Humph, I’ve already said I would definitely not lift a finger to save this brat.
If you want to protect him, you protect him!”
Senior Brother Murong sneered.
Even as he spoke, his figure shot forward like an arrow, and he engaged several Void Beasts in battle.
This Senior Brother Murong had cultivation at the early-stage Primordial Soul Realm. His spiritual power was profound, his talent was not weak, and he had cultivated many quite advanced techniques and martial skills, so his combat prowess was rather impressive.
Even while fighting several Void Beasts alone, he showed not the slightest sign of defeat. Instead, he pressed forward step by step.
“We’ll protect Su Ye!”
Jiang Yanran and Ji Mengyao exchanged a glance, then simultaneously rushed to Ye Yunfei’s side.
As for the other three Elite Students, they didn’t spare a glance for Ye Yunfei. The three gathered together and fought the Void Beasts to a standstill.
Roar… Roar…
Four or five Void Beasts charged toward Ye Yunfei’s direction at the same time.
“Beasts, you shall not wreak havoc here!”
Jiang Yanran and Ji Mengyao shouted in unison, stepping forward to meet the charge. They fiercely battled those few Void Beasts.
During the fight, the figures of these four or five beasts were extremely swift and bizarre, appearing left and right, forward and back, leaving trails of afterimages as they darted about as if teleporting.
“They’re just a few of the lowest-level, impure-blooded Void Beasts. Their utilization of spatial energy is utterly crude and not worth mentioning.”
Ye Yunfei glanced at them a few times, feeling somewhat disappointed.
The spatial energy and movement techniques displayed by these Void Beasts were, in Ye Yunfei’s eyes, worthless.
Because Ye Yunfei’s own spatial energy was far more advanced than theirs!
Roar…
Suddenly, one of the Void Beasts skirted around Jiang Yanran and Ji Mengyao, transforming into a streak of afterimages as it charged rapidly toward Ye Yunfei.
The massive beast’s body flickered in and out of sight. During its frantic charge, it constantly shifted position, left and right, making it dizzying and hard to pin down, and extremely difficult to evade.
“Su Ye, be careful!”
Jiang Yanran and Ji Mengyao were greatly alarmed, crying out in unison.
The combat power of this Void Beast was somewhat stronger than a late-stage Great Mystic Pill Realm cultivator. Even an early-stage Primordial Soul Realm expert would need to put in some effort to defeat it.
“Beast, trying to show off your movement technique in front of me, huh? Pity, you’ve picked the wrong target.”
Ye Yunfei stood with his hands clasped behind his back, watching this Void Beast charge toward him with its bizarre movements. He couldn’t help but laugh in derision.
Given this Void Beast’s combat power, if it hadn’t played all these tricks and simply charged at him with speed and strength, Ye Yunfei might have needed to treat it more seriously.
But it actually dared to play its crude spatial movement technique in front of Ye Yunfei? That was truly like teaching fish to swim—a laughable spectacle!
So, watching that charging Void Beast, Ye Yunfei couldn’t even be bothered to dodge. He remained standing in place, hands behind his back, a cold smile on his face.
“Su Ye, what are you doing!
Dodge quickly!”
Jiang Yanran and Ji Mengyao paled in alarm, crying out.
They both desperately rushed toward Ye Yunfei, wanting to save him, but it was a little too late.
Their movement speed couldn’t match that Void Beast!
“Hahaha…
Brat, are you scared stupid? Don’t know how to dodge now, do you!
Where is your previous arrogance and confidence? Feeling regretful now, aren’t you!”
Senior Brother Murong saw this scene and couldn’t help but let out a hearty laugh, taking pleasure in Ye Yunfei’s misfortune.
By this time, that Void Beast had already charged close in front of Ye Yunfei. Carrying a rolling wave of baleful aura, it fiercely pounced to kill him.
The powerful energy pressure caused Ye Yunfei’s clothes to flutter violently.
“It’s over!”
Seeing Ye Yunfei not moving a muscle, seemingly truly petrified with fear, Jiang Yanran and Ji Mengyao’s hearts sank.
Just at that moment.
Ye Yunfei’s figure suddenly moved. A wave of spatial energy rippled out from his body, and then Ye Yunfei’s figure vanished without a trace.
That Void Beast pounced on empty air and froze in place, as if it couldn’t believe it.
It discovered that this human brat’s spatial movement technique was far more advanced than its own!
The next moment, Ye Yunfei’s figure abruptly appeared beside the Void Beast’s head. A long sword was in his hand, and with one thrust, he pierced the beast’s neck.
Ye Yunfei’s movement technique was too bizarre, and his swordsmanship was swift and fierce. That Void Beast didn’t even have time to dodge.
Roar… Roar…
After being struck by the sword, blood gushed wildly from the Void Beast’s neck. It thrashed on the ground and, moments later, its limbs kicked out and it died.
“That simple?”
Jiang Yanran and Ji Mengyao were both stunned.
Although, with their strength, they could also defeat such a Void Beast, they couldn’t do it with such effortless ease—killing it with a casual, simple sword strike like Ye Yunfei had.
“How is this possible!”
Senior Brother Murong saw this scene and couldn’t help but roar inwardly, feeling intensely unwilling.
The other three Elite Students were also greatly shocked.
Swoosh!
In the brief moment everyone was stunned and shocked, Ye Yunfei took a step, merging into space and disappearing.
When he reappeared, he was already above the head of another Void Beast. The long sword in his hand stabbed lightning-fast into that Void Beast’s neck.
Another Void Beast eliminated!
In fact, what these Void Beasts were best at was their movement technique with spatial characteristics.
Their actual combat power was only equivalent to an ordinary Great Mystic Pill Realm expert.
“Alright, now it’s your turn.
Don’t worry about me. These Void Beasts can’t harm me.”
Ye Yunfei looked toward Jiang Yanran and Ji Mengyao and said with a smile.
“You really are full of surprises.
The movement technique you just used… is that the one related to spatial energy?”
Jiang Yanran’s beautiful eyes swept up and down, appraising Ye Yunfei.
“Correct.”
Ye Yunfei nodded.
“Excellent.”
Jiang Yanran nodded.
She inwardly rejoiced; having Ye Yunfei accompany them was the right choice!
Shattered Valley was filled with numerous dangerous spatial fissures. Having someone skilled in spatial energy along would reduce the danger and provide much more peace of mind.
Next, Jiang Yanran and Ji Mengyao joined forces and charged toward the other Void Beasts.
Now, they no longer needed to protect Ye Yunfei and could fight with their full strength.
Ye Yunfei noticed that the combat prowess of these two women was quite impressive, not much inferior to that of Senior Brother Murong.
During this process, several more Void Beasts pounced to attack Ye Yunfei.
The result was that Ye Yunfei employed his Space Movement Technique, constantly merging into space. Appearing and disappearing mysteriously, he confused those few Void Beasts until they were utterly disoriented. Then, with one sword strike per beast, he exterminated them all.
Finally, over twenty Void Beasts were all killed by Ye Yunfei’s group!
“Alright, let’s continue forward.”
Jiang Yanran said.
The group then continued advancing deeper into Pogu Plateau.
The real Shattered Valley lay deep within this Pogu Plateau!
At this moment.
Dozens of Primordial Soul Realm experts had stealthily infiltrated Pogu Plateau, tailing Ye Yunfei along the way.
Among these dozens of Primordial Soul Realm experts were members of the Ancient Demon Race, the Tianyou Tomb, and the Tian Province Liu Family!
They had accurately tracked Ye Yunfei all the way here, waiting for the optimal moment to launch a surprise attack against him, aiming to capture or kill Ye Yunfei in one fell swoop!
As time slowly passed, Ye Yunfei’s group delved deeper and deeper into Pogu Plateau.
Along the way, the number of Void Beasts they encountered kept increasing.
“Everyone, I have a feeling something’s not quite right!
I’ve been to Pogu Plateau several times before, but I’ve never encountered so many Void Beasts!
Could it be that some sort of change has occurred in Pogu Plateau?”
The Elite Student named Qiu Wu said.
“The number of Void Beasts we’ve encountered this time is indeed excessive.
Everyone, be careful.”
Jiang Yanran’s elegant brows furrowed slightly as she spoke.
“Murong Fu! Jiang Yanran! Ji Mengyao!
I never thought I’d run into people from the Heavenly Dao Academy here!
Since that’s the case, I’d like to inquire about someone!”
Right at this moment, a young man, leading a dozen or so other youths, approached from afar.
This young man wore a blue-green robe. His features were like a painting, impossibly handsome and striking.
“They are disciples of Tianxuan Sacred Land.”
Jiang Yanran, standing beside Ye Yunfei, whispered softly.
“Lu Pengfei, who do you want to inquire about?”
Murong Fu asked.
“Su Ye!
He was originally the Holy Son of the Houtu Sect in Mu Province. I heard he’s already come to Tian Province and joined your Heavenly Dao Academy!”
The man named Lu Pengfei said.
