"Leave this white tiger to me! You guys attack together and kill Ye Yuan with a flurry of blades!" Shangguan Yunrong instructed the great army.
But right then, a dense pack of white apes suddenly appeared around Ye Yuan. They were precisely the Long-arm Stone Ape clan!
The Long-arm Stone Ape clan's current strength was already no longer what it was in the past. Just the Tier 4 demonic beasts, a large batch was born. Tier 3 demonic beasts were even too many to enumerate.
Furthermore, for quite a long time, they rehearsed the Seven Star Ephemeris Grand Array incomparably proficiently. Their combat strengths were very daunting.
"White Light, Yuan Fei, give me a hundred breaths of time. I'll kill him then!" Ye Yuan said calmly.
"Roar! Leave it to me, Big Brother!"
"Yes, Young Master!"
Shangguan Yunrong never would have thought that both side's situation would undergo so many changes in a twinkle.
Originally, his situation was a certain win. In this twinkle of an eye, Ye Yuan let out a large crowd of demonic beasts, instantly reversing the plot.
He was still solemnly swearing to kill Ye Yuan prior to this. Just how long had it been? It was actually Ye Yuan going to kill him!
Shangguan Yunrong suddenly discovered a problem and said in terror, "Your . . . Your divine soul actually . . . actually recovered!"
Shangguan Yunrong was fully immersed in the shock of White Light appearing prior this and did not pay attention to Ye Yuan at all.
Who knew that in this short while, Ye Yuan's divine soul already fully recovered!
Although the present Ye Yuan still had injuries, his entire person's aura had totally changed!
He was already a genuine Soul Sea Realm expert!
This discovery made Shangguan Yunrong dumbstruck with amazement. Wasn't Ye Yuan already severely wounded and on the verge of death previously?
Why was it that in a twinkle, he was actually as good as new?
Furthermore, the divine soul getting injured was the most troublesome. It was exceedingly hard to heal!
What kind of miracle elixir could fully restore the divine soul in this short while?
Shangguan Yunrong felt that his brain could not quite wrap itself around it. The things that happen to Ye Yuan were forever that inconceivable.
How could he know that right at that moment the final bolt of purple lightning descended, the black bead and the golden characters in Ye Yuan's sea of consciousness finally reacted.
The attack which originally had an irresistible force was directly absorbed by the black bead when it reached Ye Yuan's divine soul!
Then, the black bead quivered slightly and dropped a few powder-state black particles.
The golden characters carried along those few grains of black powder and started treating Ye Yuan's divine soul.
Ye Yuan's divine soul was like being bathed in the spring breeze, recovering to its peak state very quickly!
Ye Yuan did not bother with Shangguan Yunrong's astonishment. He sat down on the spot, consolidating his cultivation realm with all his strength!
As a result of the heavenly tribulation's baptism, Ye Yuan's essence energy sea expanded rapidly. It finally formed an essence energy sea with a circ.u.mference of 3000 feet!
When Shangguan Yunrong saw this scene, the expression on his face became exceedingly fascinating.
At this moment, his mind only had one word, and that was 'run'!
Shangguan Yunrong flicked his sleeves and brought Shangguan Lingyun along, wanting to flee.
However, White Light already broke through to Peak Tier 4 now. His speed was already unbelievably fast.
The reason why Flowing Light White Tigers were called Flowing Light White Tigers was that their speed was unparalleled in the world.
Shangguan Yunrong's figure had just moved, and White Light already arrived in front of him.
Shangguan Yunrong was secretly startled and had no choice but to turn back and face the enemy.
Bang!
Another intense clash. The one human and one tiger both fell back several steps.
"Roar!"
White Light roared angrily again, as if he was mocking Shangguan Yunrong.
If Shangguan Yunrong knew the universal beast language, he would understand what White Light was saying.
"My big brother says that he wants to kill you, so you must die!"
Chapter 621 - Obliterating with a Punch!
Shangguan Yunrong was terrified. But no matter how far he ran, he could not escape out of White Light's palm either.
That terrifying speed of White Light made Shangguan Yunrong at a loss on what to do.
His attacks could not even touch White Light's skin and fur at all. But White Light kept on tangling with him, making him not have the chance to escape at all.
White Light was actually still a notch weaker than Shangguan Yunrong in terms of strength. After all, he was formerly a Third Level Divine Traversing expert, even though now his strength was at the First Level Divine Traversing Realm.
But White Light did not come into direct contact with him at all. He just adopted harassment tactics.
His goal was to delay for a hundred breaths.
Presently, Chu Shi and the others became more enthusiastic the more they killed. They initially came harboring the resolve to die. Who knew that so many demonic beasts suddenly appeared in front to help. This made them suddenly feel that happiness came too suddenly.
"Haha! Didn't I say that Mister Ye will be fine? Following Mister Ye, eating meat and drinking soup are a cinch!" Chu Shi said with a big laugh.
"Too awesome! Did you guys hear earlier or not? Mister Ye said to take his life in a hundred breaths of time. That is a high and lofty Divine Traversing Realm expert. Mister Ye just broke through to Soul Sea and is going to f*ck a Divine Traversing Realm expert!" Zhu Changzhi was excited too as he said this.
"Impressive!" Qian Si pierced through a Soul Sea Realm martial artist with a stab. He still did not forget to jab in verbally as a supporter role.
All of a sudden, Shangguan Yunrong said with a roar, "You d*mn tiger! No end to it, is it? It's you who forced me!"
Rumble!
Shangguan Yunrong's aura suddenly erupted. His body radiated an aura of red light.
"Bloodthirsty Art!"
Shangguan Yunrong's aura suddenly skyrocketed. His speed and offensive power rose tremendously!
Although his cultivation realm did not break through, his combat power increased greatly.
What was more damnable was that his speed actually soared in a blink of an eye and caught up to White Light's speed!
White Light also did not expect that this Shangguan Yunrong actually still had a card to play. For a while, he was forced to fall back repeatedly.
The two people's exchange was like sparks flying off a flint. Ordinary people's visual prowess simply could not catch up to the two people's speed.
Bang!
Shangguan Yunrong sent White Light flying out with a punch but did not continue following after to exploit the victory. Instead, he borrowed the rebound force of this blow to escape with even greater speed.
"Hahaha! Ye Yuan, we'll have a chance to meet again! In the future, when my condition recovers to the peak, I'll come and find you again!" Shangguan Yunrong's figure flew away, only leaving behind this one sentence.
White Light looked at Shangguan Yunrong's distant back view and could not help being vexed.
With this tussle, even if his speed was any faster, he could not catch up to Shangguan Yunrong either.
Shangguan Yunrong was just being pleased with himself when a voice sounded out beside his ear, seemingly transmitting from the netherworld.
"Why so anxious to leave? I transcended the dual-colored lightning tribulations and haven't had the time to greet you!"
Shangguan Yunrong felt his scalp tingle. Whose voice could it be if not Ye Yuan's?
His figure stopped abruptly, and he turned around to look. But
he did not even see a soul.
"Stop searching already. I'm over here," Ye Yuan said coolly.
Shangguan Yunrong's heart thumped. Turning back once more, indeed, he saw Ye Yuan standing right in front of him.
No idea since when, Ye Yuan actually ran in front of him.
Shangguan Yunrong's heart sunk to the bottom. Since Ye Yuan could run in front of him, that meant that his movement was even faster than his!
Wanting to run, there was probably no chance already!
Except, he could not figure out no matter how he racked his brains, Ye Yuan had merely just broken through to the First Level Soul Sea . . .
En? No, wait!
Ye Yuan actually directly reached Third Level Soul Sea!
Shangguan Yunrong suddenly remembered something. His expression changed and he said solemnly, "Origin Spirit Nine Transformations!"
Ye Yuan said with a faint smile, "Looks like you're still quite knowledgeable. That's right, it's precisely Origin Spirit Nine Transformations. Now, do you still have any last words? En . . . either way, I won't help you to fulfill them either."
Shangguan Yunrong's face turned back, and he said ferociously, "Want to kill me? That will also have to shatter a mouthful of your teeth!"
Shangguan Yunrong was naturally unwilling to resign himself to fate. He instantly gathered a titanic amount of heaven and earth essence energy.
Even if his cultivation realm had been blasted down, Shangguan Yunrong was still a Divine Traversing Realm expert. This commotion was truly outrageous!
"Bloodthirsty Demonic Palm!"
A terrifying attack howled towards Ye Yuan!
Ye Yuan similarly unleashed his move unhurriedly, as if he did not care about Shangguan Yunrong's move at all.
"Flame Movement True Dragon Carnage!"
The fiery-red colossal dragon carried along a terrifying power and attacked Shangguan Yunrong.
This punch was God knows how many times stronger than when Ye Yuan was at the Sea Transformation Realm. It was even more powerful than the Coiling Dragon Heaven Devastating Palm!
Under Shangguan Yunrong's terrified gaze, the colossal dragon directly gobbled up his palm force, and then pounced towards him.
Rumble!
"Ahh! Ye Yuan, it's not so easy for you to want to escape this easily!" At death's door, Shangguan Yunrong struggled to yell out.
Flame Movement True Dragon Carnage landed on Shangguan Yunrong's body without any suspense, directly blasting him into mince!
The might of one fist was terrifying to the max!
Right at this time, a wisp of black air floated in front of Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan's expression changed, and he waved his hand, wanting to flick it away.
Yet, that wisp of black air ignored his essence energy and directly bore into his palm, forming a black mark.
Ye Yuan's brows furrowed and he muttered to himself, "The power of a curse! This Shangguan Yunrong really leaves no peace behind even if he died!"
"Big Brother! I . . . Sorry about that." White Light already came to Ye Yuan's side at this time and said embarrassedly.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, "It's fine. Just nice one hundred breaths of time. You already did very well! Really didn't think that refining one tiger bone can actually let you directly broke through to peak Tier 4! Advancing another step and you'll be able to transcend the tribulation and take form!"
"Haha! You don't know how agitated I was when I saw that tiger bone back then! That was a peak Tier 4 Blackflame Tiger's tiger bone. To you humans, it can just refine some medicinal pills. But to me, it's a priceless natural treasure! When I saw it, I snatched it over without hesitation," White Light said.
Ye Yuan recalled the scenario of White Light snatching the tiger bone back then and could not help laughing heartily.
"Alright. Since you've already broken through to peak Tier 4, wait until I gather up the medicinal herbs for a Shapeshifting Pill. Then I'll help you refine a Shapeshifting Pill and aid you to break through to Tier 5!" Ye Yuan said.
White Light jumped up excitedly when he heard that, "Haha! I knew that Big Brother is the best! Thanks a lot, Big Brother!"
Ye Yuan said smilingly, "What are you still being courteous with me for? Just now, if not for you just happens to break through, I probably wouldn't have any way of standing here perfectly fine now!"
Ye Yuan and White Light, the two people, were currently chatting. When those Fierce Gale World martial artists saw their side's Divine Traversing Realm expert being killed off with a punch, how could they still have the thoughts of fighting? They immediately fled helter-skelter.
Chu Shi and and the others also gathered around at this time. Ye Yuan clasped his hands when he saw them and said, "Thank you very much, everyone."
Chu Shi repeatedly said dare not, "What's Mister Ye saying here? Our lives were all saved by Mister Ye. Without you, we couldn't possibly have escaped from Crimsonlight City at all! Moreover, we didn't really help by coming either. Rather, we've let Mister Ye seen a joke."
Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Alright everyone, do away with the polite remarks. We shouldn't stay for long in this place. City Lord, Chu Shi, you guys hurry up and bring the Crimsonlight City martial artists and leave!"
Chapter 622 - Forbidden Death Zone
Ye Yuan's words made Chu Shi and the others stupefied.
"Mister Ye, what do you mean? Aren't you going back together with us?" Chu Shi said puzzledly.
Ye Yuan revealed the black mark in his hand for everyone to see, shook his head, and then said, "That Shangguan Yunrong planted a divine soul curse on me before dying. The Fierce Gale World's Divine Traversing Realm experts can definitely track me based on this curse. Those Divine Traversing Realm expert are probably on their way already. If I follow you guys, you can't escape. Their target is me. As long as I'm not together with you, you all should be able to escape successfully."
When everyone saw that black mark in Ye Yuan's hand, they involuntarily drew a cold breath.
"This . . . Then you going by yourself, isn't it too dangerous?" Zhu Changzhi said worriedly.
"Yeah. Let's also quickly notify the alliance and let them send experts to rendezvous with us!" Qin Yan said.
Ye Yuan shook his head and said, "It's too late! Alright, don't be long-winded. You guys hurry up and leave. I have my own ways to avoid their pursuit."
Zhu Changzhi was still going to say something but was held back by Chu Shi who said, "We'll only be Mister Ye's burden by following him. If he goes alone, he might be safer instead. Alright, let's go."
After everyone left, Yuan Fei carried Shangguan Lingyun in front of Ye Yuan and said, "Young Master, how to deal with this fellow?"
Ye Yuan said coolly, "Kill him!"
Shangguan Lingyun's expression changed, and he said savagely, "Ye Yuan, even if you kill me, you'll die a horrible death too! Uncle Rong has already planted a divine soul curse! Even if you flee to the ends of the world, you'll be killed by Family Head too!"
Ye Yuan smiled indifferently and said, "You're thinking too much. Just a tiny little divine soul curse, that's all. It's a little troublesome, but to take my life, it's still lacking!"
Very quickly, Yuan Fei disposed of Shangguan Lingyun. A Fierce Gale World's young genius of his generation fell just like that.
"Big Brother, where are you going now?" White Light asked.
"The Endless Forest!" Ye Yuan said without any hesitation.
. . . . . .
On a spirit boat several million miles away from Crimsonlight City, a black mark suddenly appeared on Ding Liang's palm.
Seeing this black mark, Ding Liang's brows could not help furrowing.
"This is Shangguan Yunrong's divine soul curse. He knew that Shangguan Wenrui sent me to hunt down Ye Yuan, so he sent the mark over to me! Looks like Shangguan Yunrong and Lan Shun have both fallen already. Could it be that Ye Yuan killed them? That isn't very likely, right? According to the news sent over previously, Ye Yuan should be transcending
the tribulation to break through to the Soul Sea Realm. Even if he succeeds in breaking through, it's also not possible to be Shangguan Yunrong's match! Could it be that there are even stronger people in Crimsonlight City? But if it's really like that, why wasn't there any news sent over from there?"
Ding Liang could not figure out after racking his brains and was at a loss regarding Crimsonlight City's situation.
This curse mark was only a fuzzy response. It would not send over all of the information.
Based on this curse mark, Ding Liang could find Ye Yuan. But he did not know if this pursuit target was Ye Yuan or not.
But looking at the intel currently grasped, clearly, Ye Yuan's suspicion was the greatest.
"Screw it. As long as I catch this fellow, I'll naturally know who he is! Hopefully, this person is really Ye Yuan. That will save me a great deal of trouble! It's a pity that the set-up over there has already reached a critical time but keeps on transferring manpower out non-stop. It's really troublesome! Ye Yuan, oh, Ye Yuan, I knew that you weren't something that belongs in a pond back then. But isn't your rise up a little too rapid as well?"
All of a sudden, Ding Liang's brows furrowed. He discovered that Ye Yuan was currently speeding towards the southern direction with extreme speed.
"Heh, thinking of running? How can it be so easy? With this curse mark, even if you run to the ends of the world, how can you escape my palm?"
Ding Liang deployed the profound artifact spirit boat with a gesture and chased after in the southern direction with tremendous speed.
. . . . . .
To humans, the Endless Forest was very perilous. But as long as one's strength was sufficiently strong, they could still rely on their own strength to fly over.
But in the Endless Forest, there was a region known as Forbidden Death Zone. Even peak Divine Traversing Realm experts did not dare to cut across either, regardless whether was it through the land or via the sky.
The total area of this region was very vast, but it had borders.
Head south ten thousand miles from the Northern Domain was the borders of this Forbidden Death Zone.
This Forbidden Death Zone extended for a hundred thousand miles. Only outside of this hundred thousand mile radius was the area that humans could move about in.
