Half a day later.
In the central region of the Demon Domain.
"Master, that up ahead is Guyao City.
The entrance to the Guyao Realm is located within Guyao City," Tang Wu said, pointing at a city on the horizon that was thick with demonic aura.
"Guyao City's defenses are extremely tight. Under normal circumstances, only members of the Ancient Demon Race are allowed free entry. We humans and other races who wish to enter the Ancient Demon Race's lands must go through rigorous scrutiny and might only be permitted passage after that.
Last time, we disguised ourselves as slaves and mixed in with a slave convoy of the Ancient Demon Race to bypass the inspection, moving smoothly all the way to enter the Ancient Demon Race's territory and the Guyao Realm," Tang Biao chimed in from the side.
"No need for that. We'll charge right in," Ye Yunfei said.
"Charge right in?"
Hu Miao and the other four were all startled upon hearing this.
"That's right.
Charge right in.
Within the Ancient Demon Race, the ones that truly make me apprehensive are the Three Great Demon Kings and a few old monsters with strength at the late Soul Formation Realm.
Right now, the Three Great Demon Kings have taken their forces and are chasing my trail all over the Demon Domain.
Under these circumstances, the Ancient Demon Race experts within the Guyao Realm that can truly give me pause are few and far between.
Therefore, we will strike into the Guyao Realm with lightning speed and directly storm our way in." Ye Yunfei spoke lightly.
"Alright!
Young Master Ye, we'll follow you and fight our way in!
The Ancient Demon Race was one of the culprits that destroyed our Tang Clan back then. We dream of battling these Ancient Demons to the death almost every waking moment!" Tang Wu and Tang Biao said through gritted teeth.
As for Hu Miao, Huang Shang, and Elder Feng, naturally they had nothing to say against it. They would not oppose any decision Ye Yunfei made.
"Good, then we shall now advance openly and directly fight our way in!
Everyone, make your moves swift!" Ye Yunfei said.
No sooner had the words left his mouth.
Ye Yunfei had already taken large strides forward, walking towards Guyao City ahead.
The closer they got to Guyao City, the thicker the demonic aura became. Faintly, shadowy figures of all kinds of demons and evil spirits continually appeared, clawing and posturing with ferocious looks.
"So there are several demonic formations guarding this place."
Ye Yunfei saw at a glance that the shadowy demonic figures in the void were illusions conjured by a few demonic formations.
These formations might seem relatively advanced in the eyes of martial artists from the Xuanhuang Star Domain, but in Ye Yunfei's eyes, they were crude and sloppy. With a single look, he spotted several flaws in the array patterns.
"Break for me!"
Ye Yunfei pointed a finger. The Five Elements Spirit Swords shot out, forming the Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation. They dragged waves of sword energy behind them as they slashed towards Guyao City ahead.
Boom!...
Six demonic formations simultaneously manifested, shrouding the area above Guyao City.
Boom!...
The Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation rose into the sky like five dazzling long dragons, then spun and chopped downward.
Crash!...
In just two moves, one of the demonic formations violently exploded into fragments, vanishing without a trace.
The entire Guyao City shook violently because of it, as if a great earthquake had occurred.
"What happened?"
"Look!
Five long swords are attacking our city!"
From within Guyao City, one Ancient Demon after another shot into the air, shouting and yelling.
Boom!...
The Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation chopped down continuously.
Crash! Crash!...
The remaining five demonic formations simply couldn't hold for long. One by one, they were shattered by the Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation.
Moments later.
All six demonic formations deployed within Guyao City had been broken!
"Alright, now we charge in!"
Ye Yunfei said.
Then, with his hands clasped behind his back, Ye Yunfei took the lead and walked towards Guyao City.
Hu Miao and the other five followed closely behind him.
"Halt!
Who are you!"
A squad of Ancient Demon Race guards watching the city gates shouted sternly, rushing forward one after another.
Ye Yunfei was cold and merciless. He pointed a finger.
Hum…
The five spirit swords flew forward together, intertwining and grinding. Instantly, they reduced this entire squad of guards to mincemeat.
Against these weak Ancient Demons, Ye Yunfei didn't even need to deploy the Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation. Just casually throwing out the five spirit swords was enough to slay large swathes in an instant!
Rumble…
Ye Yunfei pointed again. The five spirit swords combined their power, directly blasting apart the main gate of Guyao City, along with a stretch of the city wall on both sides. This created a huge breach in Guyao City!
"Kill!"
Ye Yunfei led the charge, fighting his way directly into Guyao City. He unleashed the Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation, Dark Thorn, the nine great divine beasts of the Nine Palaces Totem Wheel, and a massive golden sphere three hundred meters in diameter. He killed any demon he saw!
At this moment, Ye Yunfei was like a god of slaughter descended to the mortal realm. Wherever he passed, batch after batch of Ancient Demon Race troops fell like harvested rice!
From the rear, Hu Miao deployed her enchantment and illusion techniques, immediately mesmerizing a large group of surrounding Ancient Demons. Nine fox tails hovered behind her back, continuously enlarging until they resembled nine mountain ranges, rumbling with power.
Those nine fox tails swept out in all directions. Wherever they went, they crushed one Ancient Demon after another into dust.
"Not bad.
The legendary reputation of the Ancient Heavenly Fox Clan is indeed well-deserved!"
Ye Yunfei perceived everything clearly with his Soul Power and couldn't help but nod in approval.
Huang Shang's attacks were also extremely terrifying. Over the past few days, he had devoured a large number of Ancient Demon Race soul bodies, greatly increasing the strength of his Ghost Body.
Now, he employed various ghost cultivation techniques. Yin winds gusted repeatedly, ghostly shadows were everywhere, and wall after wall of spectral energy blocked the paths of the Ancient Demon Race troops, causing them to wander in circles on the spot—a truly bizarre sight.
Elder Feng, Tang Biao, and Tang Wu also exerted their full strength, desperately killing.
However, Ye Yunfei allocated a portion of his Soul Power to constantly monitor the situation of Elder Feng, Tang Biao, and Tang Wu. As soon as he detected they were in danger, he would immediately intervene to rescue them.
Because, in such chaotic battle conditions, their self-preservation abilities were far inferior to Hu Miao and Huang Shang's.
"Who are you people!
This is Guyao City, a crucial stronghold of our Ancient Demon Race! How dare you cause such trouble here! Aren't you afraid of incurring the wrath of our Ancient Demon Race!"
Two Ancient Demon Race experts with Soul Formation Realm strength appeared. One was at the early stage, the other at the middle stage.
Normally, there would be many more Soul Formation Realm experts garrisoning Guyao City. However, during this period, some of them had been summoned by the Three Great Demon Kings to search for Ye Yunfei throughout the Demon Domain.
Consequently, Guyao City's current defense was somewhat lacking, with only two Soul Formation Realm experts standing guard.
"I am Ye Yunfei. I came here specifically to annihilate your Ancient Demon Race."
Ye Yunfei strode towards these two Soul Formation Realm experts, speaking as he advanced.
"What?!
You're Ye Yunfei!"
Upon hearing this, those two Ancient Demon Race experts were utterly shocked, finding it somewhat hard to believe.
Over the past few days, the Three Great Demon Kings had led large forces of the Ancient Demon Race, tracking Ye Yunfei's whereabouts everywhere across the Demon Domain.
Who would have thought that Ye Yunfei would suddenly show up at Guyao City!
"Ye Yunfei, you have some nerve…"
The Soul Formation Realm early-stage Ancient Demon expert shouted in startled fury, pointing at Ye Yunfei in rebuke.
Swoosh!
Ye Yunfei unleashed his Heavenly Soul Body, invading the demon's soul sea.
Hum…
The Five Elements Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation swept in, grinding and slicing.
Fwip!
Dark Thorn abruptly appeared behind the demon's skull, attacking its head.
Ah!...
Under this three-pronged combined assault, caught completely off guard, this Ancient Demon expert lasted less than three moves before being shredded to mincemeat by the Five Elements Spirit Swords.
"You…"
The other Ancient Demon expert was utterly frightened.
