Zhuge Qingxuan's expression was ugly to the max. He did not expect that there was really someone who could cultivate to become an undying evil ghost.
This thing was too horrifying, unable to kill at all!
Looking at the other party's aura, even though his strength currently improved greatly, he actually had an impulse to turn tail and run too.
He wished that he could swallow Ye Yuan's flesh raw right now. Of course, the prerequisite was that he could escape from the hands of this existence in front of him!
"This seat was buried deep here for a million years. Just a little more, and I can achieve an undying evil ghost body! You guys, to actually dare make this seat's efforts fail short of success at the last step! Prepare … to receive this seat's wrath!"
Li Gui's voice seemingly came from the underworld.
He who had just woken up instinctively thought that it was these two people before his eyes that destroyed this space, making his efforts fail at the last stage.
This former peak Heaven Glimpse Realm powerhouse was the grand banquet that Ye Yuan left for Zhuge Qingxuan.
The Soul Refining Sect coming into being, Li Gui's undying evil ghost body was about to achieve grand completion.
Ye Yuan inherited Absolute Heaven's mantle. It was naturally impossible to let this sort of thing to happen.
As for Zhuge Qingxuan, he sought refuge with the fiend race. Ye Yuan was naturally happy that he was killed.
Therefore, he immediately directed this dog-eat-dog fine show, but he himself stepped out, leaving suavely.
Old Man Han felt like his divine soul was about to leave his body. He was stared at by Li Gui like being stared at by a poisonous snake.
"You're mista-"
Old Man Han had just thought of explaining when Li Gui's figure already vanished from sight.
Boom!
Zhuge Qingxian had a frontal-exchange with Li Gui. The air billow that spread out immediately sent Old Man Han flying out.
Zhuge Qingxuan cracked himself up to be an expert, but this blow also made his entire body almost fall apart.
Space was still collapsing, but Li Gui did not seem to be aware of it at all, rushing over towards Zhuge Qingxuan crazily.
A million years of bitter effort reduced to naught, how could he not be furious?
The two people started an unparalleled great battle inside this Soul Refining Sect space that was about to be destroyed!
...
There was a ripple in space. Ye Yuan walked out from within the void.
"Many thanks for Heaven Surmounting Divine King's life-saving grace!"
There were probably thousands of martial artists before his eyes, standing until it covered the hills and dales.
These people chorused in unison, kneeling down toward Ye Yuan. It was as if they had gone through a rehearsal before.
The voice emitted by several thousand martial artists reverberated throughout the entire Godsfall Mountain Range, majestic and grand.
This scene also made Ye Yuan involuntarily freeze.
He completely did not expect that these people were actually waiting here and knelt down towards him collectively.
Powerhouses capable of cultivating to the Dao Profound Realm, each and every one of them was a person arrogant at heart and haughty in manner.
Making them kneel was even harder than ascending to heaven.
But these several thousand martial artists before his eyes actually knelt down towards him without prior agreement. This made him greatly surprised.
He could feel that these people were all grateful to him from the bottom of their hearts.
At this time, Yue Mengli came forward to greet and said with a faint smile, "Ye Sheng that blabbermouth told them the matters of the Soul Refining Sect space."
The moment Ye Yuan heard, he came to a sudden realization and said in a clear voice, "All get up! You all don't have to be like this. Me saving you all is in the hope that you guys put forth a portion more of effort for the human race if you all can have some gains in the Godsfall Mountain Range. I hope that you don't be stingy with your strength. When the nest is overturned, how can the eggs be intact? If this young master fails on the verge of success … I hope that there's someone among you all who can support the human race's foundation! I won't talk anymore about general principles, you all take care. Li-er, let's go."
Finished talking, Ye Yuan brought Li-er and the others away on their own without caring about the crowd with dumbfounded faces.
Those martial artists all exchanged glances, all somewhat at a loss.
In Ye Yuan's words earlier, they actually carried a trace of melancholy.
Didn't he slay a fiendgod? How could those fiends be his match?
Ye Yuan's strength was already terrifying to this sort of degree, could it be that there was still someone capable of threatening him?
Also, why did the Heaven Surmounting Divine King wanted to enter the Godsfall Mountain Range?
A series of questions echoed inside everyone's head.
Prior to this, these people's thoughts were all: if the sky fell down, there would be tall people supporting it.
The Heaven Surmounting Divine King led the Mystic Gate to resist the fiend race, how could there be a need for them to worry about this sort of thing?
Without a doubt, the Heaven Surmounting Divine King's strength currently already had no way of measuring. He might even be more powerful than Zhuge Qingxuan.
If the fiend race still had a powerhouse that even he could not handle as well, then … the human race was really in a precarious situation already!
"Could it be that the fiend race's strongest aren't the fiendgods? They were former Deity Realm powerhouses. Even stronger than them, what kind of existence does that have to be?"
"No idea what kind of existence, but without a doubt, the human race is not looking well! I feel that the Heaven Surmounting Divine King did not burst out without reason just now. Seems like … he really doesn't have much confidence."
"The Heaven Surmounting Divine King truly has the air of someone with great talent and virtue. I've always thought that one has to live for themselves. But seeing the Heaven Surmounting Divine King, I feel that my ripe old age was really utterly wasted on a dog!"
"Truly ashamed! I've decided, if I can get out of this Godsfall Mountain Range alive, I'll definitely join the Mystic Gate and fight to the bitter end with the fiend race!"
...
Ye Yuan was aware of these Divine Realm martial artists' virtues, so he did not talk more nonsense with them either.
But he did not expect that his conduct actually deeply infected these martial artists, making them join the great army resisting the fiend race.
Unknowingly, Ye Yuan's body already had a leadership disposition similar to Absolute Heaven.
This kind of temperament was not because his martial strength was powerful.
This was a disposition that came from the soul. It could imperceptibly infect the people around, making many people gather around his side, forming a powerful group from there.
A group formed like this had even greater combat power than a group formed by coercing with martial strength! Even more cohesive!"
...
"Young Master, you were so cool just now!" Lu-er said excitedly by the side.
The scene of several thousand people collectively giving thanks just now was truly too grand.
Forget about Lu-er, even Ye Sheng they all, these old veterans, never saw before too.
Even Ye Sheng was very surprised that these people would actually do this sort of thing.
He did not discuss with those martial artists to deliberately display this kind of line-up.
All of these were spontaneously done by those people.
It was precisely because of so that it made Lu-er worship him even more.
But Ye Yuan knew that the reason why those people would do such a thing was probably not just because he saved them.
They were respecting his effo
rts for the human race and felt ashamed in their hearts. Plus, he saved them.
Only like this could it make them give thanks in unison.
In the end, it was just a debt in their hearts.
Li-er also smiled and said, "Big Brother Yuan, I really didn't expect that these selfish people would actually do such a thing!"
Chapter 1235 - Stoneman
Inside the forest, a beautiful figure and a desolate beast were locked in a fierce battle.
That was a Hawk Beast. Its movements were extremely nimble, its strength extremely powerful, thoroughly suppressing that beautiful figure.
Not far away, several figures were currently watching the fight and did not have the intention of making a move.
"Icesoul Lotus!"
The woman cried out sharply. An enormous ice lotus condensed above the sky, directly freezing that Hawk Beast.
Her move succeeding, the girl's face revealed a happy expression.
It was just that very quickly, her expression became ugly.
Crack! Crack!
On that ice lotus, a fissure actually cracked open. The rift became larger and larger.
Finally, with a crack, it was utterly shattered by the Hawk Beast.
Condensing this ice lotus, the girl expended enormous amounts of essence energy. She did not expect that this still could not kill the Hawk Beast.
At this time, she was already powerless to fight anymore.
However, her face did not reveal much of a panicked expression. What there was, was just a face full of dissatisfaction.
That Hawk Beast clearly suffered injuries too. It was just that its combat strength still had quite a bit remaining.
Hence, it swept up a terrifying storm, tearing toward the girl.
At this time, a figure suddenly appeared between the two. A domain opened up, and that storm was instantly scattered away.
Immediately after, a sword slashed out. That Hawk Beast did not even get to escape and was directly annihilated.
Lu-er pursed her lips and said with an unhappy look, "It's young master making a move to save me again!"
Ye Yuan chuckled with laughter and said, "This Hawk Beast strength is absolutely not beneath peak Void Mystic powerhouses. You're only middle-stage Void Mystic currently and can already fight neck-to-neck with him. It's already very impressive."
Ye Yuan was not consoling Lu-er. He was really astonished by Lu-er's talent.
Along the way, the four people naturally encountered quite a few dangers while walking.
But the majority of the time, it was all Lu-er taking action.
Only when she could not resolve it would Ye Yuan make a move to settle it.
Coming out from the Soul Refining Sect space, it was also merely a month's time. Lue-er already broke through from initial-stage Void Mystic to middle-stage Void Mystic.
This comprehension ability was truly rare in this world.
Right now, the four people already unknowingly entered the void forbidden region. The risk factor also increased greatly.
That Hawk Beast earlier was merely an appetizer.
"But being together with Young Master, I'm forever a burden!"
Lu-er had a depressed look. Young Master's talent was too terrifying. No matter how hard she worked, she could not catch up.
Forget about Young Master, even Li-er and White Light, her gap was huge too.
So along the way, she worked very hard to improve herself. The goal was just in order to not be a burden.
She did not wish to just be able to hide inside the Vast Heaven Pagoda every time she ran into danger.
"How can Lu-er be a burden? If with you, there wouldn't be the present Big Brother Yuan! Your role is what others are unable to replace. At times, even I'm somewhat jealous!" Li-er laughed as he came up to greet.
Lu-er's face turned red, and she said, "Big Sister Li-er, you're teasing Lu-er again!"
Ye Yuan looked towards Li-er rather gratefully. He then said to Lu-er with a smile, "Silly lass, what Li-er said is right! You're the one and only, and also irreplaceable. You're not some kind of a burden."
Hearing everyone say so, only then did Lu-er's disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e turn to joy. Pulling Li-er's hand, she said, "Big Sister Li-er, you don't forget why Young Master almost fell into depravity. You really don't know, I've never seen Young Master like that for a person before."
The two girls chimed in one after another. Ye Yuan immediately felt his head swell and he hurriedly changed the topic, "Alright, it's not early anymore. We still have to continue hurrying on our way. That mountain in front seems to be somewhat unusual. Everyone be a little more careful."
This was not Ye Yuan deliberately saying, but it really was the case.
That mountain ahead was incomparably deep, faintly transmitting a very dangerous aura.
Ye Yuan comprehended Sudden Impulse and was very s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e towards danger.
This mountain was probably not easy to cross.
Entering into the large mountain, this feeling became even more unbelievably intense.
"Big Brother, it really seems to be not quite right! Along the way, there's actually not even a bird feather!" White Light also perceived something amiss.
Ye Yuan nodded his head and said with a solemn face, "Everybody, be a little more careful."
Right at this time, Lu-er suddenly cried out in surprise and said, "Young Master, you look! That boulder, isn't it like a person?"
Everyone followed the direction that Lu-er pointed at and looked over, and discovered that a rock on a cliff was indeed like a person sleeping.
Ye Yuan's expression turned fearful, and he said, "Ignore it, let's continue hurrying on our way!"
That stone statue gave him a very dangerous feeling. Ye Yuan was naturally unwilling to provoke.
If they were able to leave safe and sound, it was naturally the best.
However, things did not always turn out as one wished. When they walked by the vicinity of the stone statue, suddenly, the entire huge mountain started quaking, as if it was an earthquake.
Ye Yuan felt all the hairs on his body stand of its end. That stone statue actually slowly opened its eyes!
"Quickly go!" Ye Yuan cried out fiercely, protecting the other three people so that they could withdraw first.
Rumble …
Debris flew everywhere. That stone statue actually walked out of the rock and turned into a stone giant!
This giant was over a hundred feet tall, its entire body made up of rocks.
"Bold humans, to dare infringe upon my clan's territory! Courting death!"
The stoneman gave no chance to explain. A fist brandishing, it smashed toward Ye Yuan them all.
Seeing this punch, Ye Yuan's gaze turned sharp.
This stoneman's fist actually carried the power of Divine Dao laws!
If this punch landed on the other three people's bodies, they would be severely injured if not dead.
Ye Yuan's face fell, divine rank Coiling Dragon Heaven Devastating Palm releasing brazenly!
Boom!
An enormous boom came over. With Ye Yuan's might, he was actually pushed back several hundred feet as well.
However, that stoneman was even more miserable.
Under Ye Yuan's palm, his figure fell back uncontrollably, sitting onto the ground with a plop, shaking the entire mountain until it trembled.
"Haha, Young Master is mighty!"
"Big Brother is formidable! This stoneman is so powerful and yet is actually not your match!"
Seeing Ye Yuan's display of invincible might, Lu-er and White Light both cheered loudly.
However, Ye Yuan's expression did not have any hint of delight with himself.
He knew the might of his palm earlier. But that stoneman was actually completely unharmed!
This guy's defense was simply freakish to the max.
"This human is so strong, everybody come on out!"
That stoneman did not launch an attack straight away but called out lou
dly.
Rumble …
The mountain body started trembling once more. Another stoneman walked out of the rock.
Seeing this scene, Ye Yuan's expression changed greatly.
This stoneman's concept comprehension might not be as high as his, but the defense was freakishly powerful.
One was still fine, several coming out at once, even he was not a match either.
"Go!"
Ye Yuan dragged Lu-er, his figure moved, displaying merging into heaven and earth straight away, and instantly arrived ten thousand feet away.
Li-er and White Light's face also changed drastically, following Ye Yuan closely and retreating.
"Forget about leaving, humans!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Each step that the stonemen took, it quaked the ground until the earth trembled.
Ye Yuan turned his head and looked, his expression could not help turning incomparably ugly. There were actually no less than 10 stonemen chasing after.
Those stonemen looked incredibly clumsy. But their speed was incomparably strange and actually not much slower than them!
Chapter 1236 - Accidentally Entering the Peach Blossom Forest
"Flying rock!"
The stoneman in the lead position suddenly shouted. The group of stonemen all stopped.
But saw them seemingly perform conjuring tricks, plucking off a piece of stone from their bodies, lifting their hands, and throwing it over towards Ye Yuan and the rest.
A terrifying undulation came over from behind. Ye Yuan could only stop his footsteps and answer the challenge.
Over a dozen rocks arrived with a howl, akin to arrows whistling through the air.
Ye Yuan's face fell, the Evil Extermination Sword suddenly striking.
"Fury Sword Fire Lotus!"
Clank! Clank! Clank!
A series of metal clashing sounds came over. The Evil Extermination Sword crossed swords with those rock chunks, scraping out fierce sparks.
Ye Yuan's figure received a tremendous impact and glided back several thousand feet before barely managing to stabilize his figure.
Even if his fleshy body was powerful, the webbing between his thumb and index finger was also shocked until it went numb.
Except, with this delay, the four people already had their retreat paths utterly blocked off by the ten stonemen.
