Chapter 59: Follow them, and give him a taste of something good

The people of the Three Great Factions have great ambition; they want to wipe out everyone in the Hehuan Sect in one fell swoop, and for this purpose, they specifically arranged for over fifty people to stay by the entrance and set up a Barrier.

There are about sixty people actually participating in the great battle.

Although this number still holds an absolute upper hand compared to the thirty-some people of the Hehuan Sect, it also gives those ordinary elites of the Hehuan Sect a chance to resist.

"Senior Brother Ye, they have shrouded the exit with a Barrier, what should we do?"

Su Yutong struck to force back the three opponents in front of her, looked at the Barrier in the air, and anxiously sent a voice transmission to Ye Lingyun.

The other Hehuan Sect Disciples are almost all being besieged by two people each, in an extremely sorry state, and are also anxiously sending voice transmissions to Ye Lingyun.

The voice transmissions constantly coming into his mind made Ye Lingyun's already irritable mood go from bad to worse, and his complexion turned gloomy.

In his original plan.

He would take as many people as possible to escape, and once these people returned to the sect and publicized this feat, his prestige would inevitably increase greatly.

If it really didn't work, he would abandon these people and escape by himself without hesitation.

But he really didn't expect the Three Great Factions to be so ruthless, actually setting up a Barrier in advance, not wanting to let a single person go.

In this way, even if he wanted to escape alone, it would be very difficult.

"Hold on, I will think of a way."

After he struck to force back Su Su and Lin Xian'er, he sent a voice transmission to soothe everyone.

Immediately, a flash of ferocity crossed his eyes.

"Master, it seems I must trouble you today."

"My Soul Power is all but exhausted; I can only help you once, after which I will fall into a long slumber. Have you thought it through?"

An ethereal, pleasant female voice suddenly sounded from his mind.

Ye Lingyun looked at the Jade White Ring on his finger, and a flash of struggle crossed his eyes.

This ring is his greatest secret.

Although he was born into the Ye Family, he was only born to a maidservant and had a lowly status.

It was precisely because he obtained this ring and took the soul within the ring as his master that he was able to rise rapidly and reach his current achievements.

Once the soul in the ring falls into a slumber, it means that during the period of its slumber, he will no longer be able to obtain the other party's help.

His speed of strength improvement will be greatly reduced.

But in the end, he still made up his mind.

"Master, I have thought it through."

There is no other way.

The current situation is that the exit is blocked by the Barrier; if the Barrier is not broken, he cannot leave either.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Hehuan Sect members are still alive and can still help him hold back some enemies, there is still a chance to turn the tables.

If the people of the Hehuan Sect all die.

Even with the help of Master's Soul Power, it will be difficult to turn the tables.

"Since that is the case, then let it be as you wish."

The ethereal female voice sounded from his mind again.

The next moment, a massive amount of Soul Power instantly surged into his Soul Sea.

Ye Lingyun let out a muffled groan, feeling as if his head were about to explode.

But at the same time, he felt an unprecedented strength.

It felt as if he could wipe out everyone present with a single thought.

This feeling was not an illusion, but a fact.

With the Soul Power currently in his mind, he could indeed do it.

But unfortunately, he himself is too weak.

He can only use a very small portion of this Soul Power.

Even so, it allowed his strength to be greatly improved.

He moved his mind.

The Copper Mirror erupted with unprecedented Spirit Light.

A powerful Spiritual Power fluctuation spread out, and a thick beam of Spirit Light suddenly shot out from the Copper Mirror, then split into two, shooting toward Lin Xian'er and Su Su.

Puchi~

Puchi~

Both of them spat out blood at the same time and flew backward.

This scene shocked everyone.

The entire battlefield fell silent.

"Something is wrong."

On the ice mountain, Wang Jianqiang, as a bystander whose attention had been on Ye Lingyun the whole time, keenly sensed a clue.

Just a moment ago, the white ring on Ye Lingyun's finger flashed with a bright light, and afterward, Ye Lingyun acted as if he had taken medicine, his strength greatly increasing.

Clearly, that ring is not ordinary.

"Can that ring amplify cultivation? Or is there another reason?"

Wang Jianqiang's brows furrowed tightly.

This Ye Lingyun clearly hides a not-so-small secret.

"How is this possible!"

In the canyon, the injured Su Su and Lin Xian'er looked at each other, both revealing expressions of horror.

A moment ago, Ye Lingyun was still a normal Foundation Establishment Mid-stage Cultivator, and it was only by relying on the power of his Spirit Tool that he blocked their joint attack.

But in the next moment, his strength surged, reaching a level comparable to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

Could it be that he had been hiding his strength all along?

Thinking of this, both of them simultaneously felt the urge to retreat and stopped their attacks.

Compared to the two women's wariness, Liu Qing'er, upon sensing the powerful aura suddenly erupting from Ye Lingyun, revealed a strong fighting spirit.

She slashed out with her sword.

Puchi~

Bai Xiruo's counterattack shattered instantly, a long bloodstain appeared on her shoulder, and she retreated in a disheveled state.

"You actually hid your strength!"

Bai Xiruo retreated in disbelief.

She had been able to trade blows with Liu Qing'er before, yet at this moment, she couldn't even block a single sword strike!

"To me, combat is a process of tempering Sword Intent; how can one temper oneself by crushing others with absolute strength?"

Liu Qing'er glanced at her indifferently.

"But now, I have found a better whetstone."

As she spoke, her gaze turned toward Ye Lingyun, and a powerful Sword Intent instantly locked onto him.

The next moment, Liu Qing'er herself became like a Flying Sword overflowing with sharpness, shooting toward Ye Lingyun.

The two engaged in battle.

Powerful fluctuations immediately scattered in all directions.

Under the augmentation of mysterious Soul power, Ye Lingyun's cultivation was enough to rival a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator, and with a Spirit Tool in hand, his strength was elevated even further.

Liu Qing'er was only at the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage, and the sword in her hand was merely a High-grade Magical Artifact Flying Sword.

Yet the Sword Intent on her body was powerful to an incredible degree, making her attacks incomparably sharp, and she actually fought Ye Lingyun to a draw.

"This woman is so formidable!"

Seeing this scene, Wang Jianqiang couldn't help but widen his eyes.

He could fight a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator while at Qi Refining Consummation because he cultivated the Years Sacred Body, and his physique was not restricted by his realm.

Mu Lingxi could kill a Foundation Establishment Early Stage Cultivator while at the Third Turn Realm because she cultivated a heaven-defying technique and had refined the Three Lives Body.

Yet Liu Qing'er had neither a powerful physical body nor had she revealed any heaven-defying techniques; she hadn't even used any sword cultivation techniques, relying only on the most basic moves.

She had achieved cross-realm combat entirely through Sword Intent alone.

It was simply outrageously fierce.

Sensing Liu Qing'er's strength, Ye Lingyun's expression grew increasingly gloomy.

The augmentation of his master's Soul power had a time limit; if he were dragged down by Liu Qing'er, his true colors would be revealed sooner or later.

Thinking of this, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

"Get back!"

Ignoring the burden on his body, he overloaded and released a powerful Soul Storm.

The terrifying Soul power rampaged.

Liu Qing'er's face turned pale, and she retreated.

Ye Lingyun's Soul Sea was damaged, and his head throbbed with pain, but he dared not delay in the slightest.

"Follow me to break the Restriction!"

Enduring the headache, he shouted sharply and rushed toward the entrance of the Secret Realm at top speed.

On the iceberg, Wang Jianqiang narrowed his eyes and then looked at Ye Qingxue behind him.

"Little Xue'er, you follow him."

"Give him a good one at the critical moment."
