Chapter 441: The Battlefield Beyond the Border

Seeing that all matters had been instructed, Ye Qingxuan waved his hand and said:

"Very well, you may all withdraw!"

"Taking today as the starting point, return on your own after a hundred years!"

"If anything urgent arises, you may contact me at any time via transmission talisman!"

After the binding force of heaven and earth intensified.

Long-range transmission talismans could still be used, though the delay was somewhat long.

From the distance spanning several provinces between Profound Heaven Sect and the Ye Family.

A message sent from the Ye Family on that day might not reach Ye Qingxuan at Profound Heaven Sect until a month later.

But this was still better than having contact severed entirely.

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's instructions, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu both responded in unison once more:

"Yes, Young Master!"

Having spoken, Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu bowed to Ye Qingxuan.

Then the two turned and left the place, flying toward the outside of Profound Heaven Sect.

Watching the figures of Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu depart, Ye Qingxuan sighed softly in his heart.

Now that the teleportation array had failed, for the two of them to leave Profound Heaven Sect's base would likely require flying for a very long time.

After all, Profound Heaven Sect's base occupied an entire province.

And with the greatly increased binding force of heaven and earth they now faced, their flight speed was only one-thirtieth of what it had been before.

Thus, leaving the bounds of Profound Heaven Sect was naturally no longer so easy.

By the time they left Profound Heaven Sect and returned to the Ye Family, it would likely be several months later.

Fortunately, the heavenly and earthly upheaval had only just begun.

Given Profound Heaven Sect's deterrent power.

In the short term, Qingzhou, where the Ye Family resided, should not descend into chaos.

Thinking this, Ye Qingxuan felt a slight easing in his heart.

Turning his head to look toward the direction of the human border, he spoke softly:

"A time of great turmoil!"

Shortly after, Ye Qingxuan waved his hand, opening a boundary gate before him.

He stepped through it and vanished without a trace.

Time passed; one month later.

Outside the border of the Southern Barbarian Domain.

"Boom!" "Crash!" "Rumble!"

The roaring sounds of various spells and divine abilities continued unabated.

Outside the human border, fierce battles erupted across the high skies and the ground, igniting fires that could not be extinguished and raising waves of energy in myriad colors.

Fortunately, under the instinct of self-preservation, the Earth-Heaven Realm had greatly strengthened the stability of heaven and earth.

Although this would consume part of its primordial foundation.

At least it could lessen the damage inflicted upon the Earth-Heaven Realm by the war between the two races.

This was why, outside the border now, tens of thousands of Void-Sea and Empty-Mind realm experts from the human race and the Green-Demon Race had been locked in continuous battle for a month.

Although this had caused devastating blows to the surface environment of the southern region of the Southern Barbarian Domain, it had not inflicted deeper harm upon the Earth-Heaven Realm.

As long as the earth of the Earth-Heaven Realm did not crack and space did not shatter.

There was no need to invoke the laws of heaven and earth for repair.

Surface environmental damage on a small scale was of little consequence to the Earth-Heaven Realm as a whole.

"Hum!"

Amidst the waves of energy in myriad colors rising from the battlefield.

Ye Qingxuan's clone held in his hand the corpse of a mid-stage Void-Sea realm Green-Demon Race member who had just perished.

His gaze was calm, the rhythm of the Dao flowing around him, suppressing the surrounding energy waves.

Then, carrying the slain Green-Demon Race corpse in his hand, he stepped through the air, leaving the battlefield step by step, and returned once more to the border.

This was the third mid-stage Void-Sea realm Green-Demon Race member he had slain in this month.

Completely extinguishing the life force of a Void-Sea realm expert was not so easy for a cultivator of the same realm.

Moreover, what stood upon the border was merely an ordinary clone of Ye Qingxuan, with very limited spiritual power within.

He could not frequently employ minor divine abilities that consumed vast amounts of energy against the enemy.

Thus, after a month had passed, he had slain only three mid-stage Void-Sea realm Green-Demon Race members.

However, during the process of fighting the Green-Demon Race outside the border.

His luck was good; he had picked up the remains of one early-stage Empty-Mind realm and two late-stage Void-Sea realm Green-Demon Race members.

These three Green-Demon Race corpses had been killed by the residual waves from a casual clash between the Master of Lingxiao and the Demon Emperor of Xieyuan.

At that time, the residual waves had slain many Green-Demon Race experts.

As long as one was not in the central area of the residual waves.

Among the Green-Demon Race experts who perished in the outer regions, many corpses had been preserved.

Ye Qingxuan was not the only one who had found Green-Demon Race corpses amidst the battlefield.

Ye Qingxuan had personally witnessed his junior brother, Liu Tai'an, hand-pick up three Empty-Mind realm Green-Demon Race corpses.

This had made Ye Qingxuan envious for quite some time at that moment.

After putting away the Green-Demon Race corpse in his hand.

Ye Qingxuan gazed at the battlefield beyond the borderlands, a continuous and ever-expanding expanse, his eyes reflecting deep thought.

He did not know the state of the battlefield within the void.

However, beyond the human race's borderlands, the battlefields of the Void Piercing and Empty Void realms.

The human race held an absolute advantage.

First, the battlefield lay within the Earthly Profound Realm, granting the human race the advantage of home ground.

Second, before the war began, a small portion of the Green Demon Clan's Void Piercing and Empty Void experts had already perished.

Under these circumstances, it was difficult for the human race not to hold the advantage in the Void Piercing and Empty Void battlefields beyond the borderlands.

In fact, this was indeed the case.

During this month, the human race had been pressing the Green Demon Clan hard beyond the borderlands.

The battlefield had spread from the area beyond the borderlands all the way to the boundary between the two worlds.

In the following days.

Many peak Empty Void human cultivators had already pursued the Green Demon Clan's Empty Void cultivators, killing their way into the Green Demon Realm.

However, the specific situation within the Green Demon Realm remained unknown to Ye Qingxuan for the time being.

But beyond the borderlands, in the battlefield located within the Earthly Profound Realm area.

The Green Demon Clan cultivators beyond the borderlands were already showing signs of collapse.

They were essentially fighting while retreating.

If they had not been constantly harassed by human cultivators, they likely would have fled back into the Green Demon Realm long ago.

Now, most of the battlefield had converged at that place of heaven and earth where the two worlds met.

In that place of heaven and earth, cultivators from both races were not suppressed and could unleash their full strength.

Moreover, once they were at a disadvantage, the Green Demon Clan's experts could quickly flee back to the Green Demon Realm.

Under these circumstances, Ye Qingxuan no longer intended to compete with other human cultivators for the opportunity to hunt down other Green Demon Clan members.

Although he had not yet used his Minor Divine Art: Death Curse Technique.

However, the Minor Divine Art: Death Curse Technique, which curses and kills a Void Piercing expert, requires a hundred years to cool down.

Furthermore, the Minor Divine Art: Death Curse Technique involves karma.

Whether the main body or a clone uses it, both will simultaneously enter the cooldown period.

That is to say, if his clone uses the Minor Divine Art: Death Curse Technique to curse and kill a Void Piercing cultivator.

His main body and other clones would be unable to use the Minor Divine Art: Death Curse Technique again for a hundred years.

Now that the war between the two races has just begun, the situation remains unclear.

Additionally, Ye Qingxuan did not wish to expose the Minor Divine Art: Death Curse Technique before others.

Therefore, in this battlefield between the two races, he did not intend to use this trump card.

After scanning the battlefield beyond the human race's borderlands.

Ye Qingxuan turned and left the borderlands, flying toward South Profound City.

On this clone of his lay one Empty Void Green Demon corpse and five Void Piercing Green Demon corpses.

As long as he returned these six Green Demon corpses to the Profound Green Cave Heaven.

After sacrificing these six Green Demon corpses, the cultivation base of his main body could break through to the late stage of the Void Piercing realm.

At that time, once the Profound Green Cave Heaven blessed land completed its seventh-stage transformation and promotion.

Through the feedback of the primordial source, he could effortlessly break through to the Empty Void realm and enter a new level.

Therefore, to ensure absolute safety.

He did not intend to let this clone continue to take risks beyond the borderlands.
