Chapter 1808: Just Right for Practicing
Ye Liuyun, with Xiao Yunfang and Quan Zhicheng, set out of the city at once, and following the map, hurried toward Yin Soul Mountain.
Although Ye Liuyun didn't say where they were going, the two connected the information they had heard while eating and guessed that Ye Liuyun was heading to Yin Soul Mountain.
"You two, get ready to fight! We've been spotted!"
Less than an hour after Ye Liuyun led them out of the city, he sent them a Transmission Voice.
At this point, the two still hadn't realized they were being followed.
"If we encounter danger, you can release those captured Monster Beasts!"
Xiao Yunfang suggested.
"Don't even think about it; I've already extracted their cores and fed them to the Black Panther!"
Ye Liuyun said that deliberately, not wanting them to rely too much.
"Ah?
You..." Xiao Yunfang, taking him at his word, was at a loss for what to say to Ye Liuyun, and gave him a look of reproach for being wasteful.
Ye Liuyun snorted coldly and said, "What about me?
I caught the Monster Beasts; how I deal with them is up to me! I won't be concerned with you.
I already told you before we came that you must take responsibility for your own lives; don't count on me!"
"Wasteful lecher, damned lecher..." Xiao Yunfang, at this moment, had cursed Ye Liuyun in her heart repeatedly.
"They're here!"
Quan Zhicheng at this moment also noticed the people trailing them from behind.
He drew his long sword, ready for battle.
That group numbered over ten; aside from two who were Second Layer Late Stage, the rest were Third Layer Realm, including three who were Third Layer Late Stage.
They were now speeding toward them, apparently about to strike.
"How great! Perfect time to practice, there's no danger!"
Ye Liuyun smiled at Xiao Yunfang.
Xiao Yunfang, seeing that his strength wasn't far beyond theirs, relaxed a little.
Even just the few people beside Ye Liuyun were enough to handle these opponents.
However, this time Ye Liuyun didn't release anyone; he simply drew the Demon Slaying Sword and went straight into the attack.
He did this not only to make Xiao Yunfang and Quan Zhicheng completely abandon reliance on him, but also to hone his own strength.
From a distance he swung a single slash, cleaving a Third Layer Early Stage opponent in half.
"The little brat's guts aren't small; you even dare to kill our people! I originally intended to spare you, but now you shall die!"
An elder of Third Layer Late Stage roared angrily and charged straight at Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun swung another slash, imbued with Fire Flame Power and Spatial Power, cutting the elder directly; immediately, his Golden Pupil scanned, and a massive fiery Golden Crow surged forward, charging at those Martial Cultivators.
He then struck a palm at a Third Layer Mid Stage Martial Cultivator, simultaneously using Primordial Spirit Secret Technique to manipulate his True Essence.
"Snap!" a crisp sound rang out as the Martial Cultivator's head was smashed open by Ye Liuyun's palm.
Immediately he swung his sword again, charging toward another Third Layer Late Stage Martial Cultivator.
This series of attacks startled the opposing Martial Cultivators.
Some, knowing he was not to be trifled with, immediately bypassed Ye Liuyun and rushed at Xiao Yunfang and Quan Zhicheng.
The two each raised their weapons and began slashing.
Quan Zhicheng fought two Second Layer Late Stage Martial Cultivators, while Xiao Yunfang had to deal with three Third Layer Early‑Mid Stage Martial Cultivators; the remaining Martial Cultivators were blocked by Ye Liuyun.
Seeing the two fully focused on the fight, Ye Liuyun quietly released a clone cloaked in an Invisibility Cloak behind those opponents, stabbing one with a blade to test the newly acquired sixth‑grade dagger.
The dagger proved extremely useful.
Even when the wound wasn't fatal, it still harvested the opponent's Soul outright, causing death.
"Great stuff!"
The clone silently praised itself in its mind, then was pulled back into the Space World by Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun casually slashed again, cutting a Third Layer Mid Stage Martial Cultivator to relieve Xiao Yunfang.
Then he stood aside to watch the spectacle.
Xiao Yunfang felt her teeth ache with resentment, yet was amazed at how quickly Ye Liuyun eliminated the other opponents.
After the two, exhausted and panting, had finished off the opponents, Ye Liuyun said to them, "Rest quickly, the second wave is coming!"
"What?"
Quan Zhicheng let out a startled shout, immediately took out a pill and swallowed it, rapidly restoring his True Essence.
Seeing this, Xiao Yunfang also followed suit, swallowing a pill.
Sure enough, more than ten Martial Cultivators, with realms similar to the previous ones, surrounded them again.
Seeing the bodies scattered on the ground, they felt a bit puzzled.
"These people, you all killed?"
A leading Martial Cultivator asked.
Ye Liuyun retorted, "How so?
Are you scared?
Can't act anymore?"
"Hmph, you kid do have some guts! But to make me fear you, you're still far away!"
The Martial Cultivator said disdainfully.
"Is that so?"
Ye Liuyun smiled faintly, slapped again, then followed with another slash.
This palm and sword strike came at the same time; the martial cultivator was just channeling true essence when he suddenly found his true essence insufficient.
In his panic, his defenses grew lax; not only did he fail to block Ye Liuyun's palm, but that sword also struck his chest.
Although the force wasn't strong, the flame power carried by the sword directly set him ablaze.
Immediately, Ye Liuyun released a flaming Golden Crow to block others' attacks, then swung his sword at the leader martial cultivator, killing him outright.
He himself kept muttering: "You want to fear me? There's no chance left!"
Immediately, Ye Liuyun swung his sword and cut down two martial cultivators.
Seeing this, the others surprisingly didn't engage Ye Liuyun in a death match, but turned and fled.
"Now you're afraid? Too late!"
Ye Liuyun instantly released his avatar; the two split up to pursue, launching spiritual soul attacks, devouring souls to strengthen their divine soul power.
Afterwards, Ye Liuyun began to clean up the battlefield, and then recalled his avatar into the Space World.
"Who's helping you?"
Xiao Yunfang also noticed that someone was helping Ye Liuyun.
However, she couldn't see the avatar wearing the Invisibility Cloak.
Ye Liuyun only stored the martial cultivators he had slain into the Space World, then turned and left.
"I advise you two to hurry; there are still two more waves of people following us behind, and they're even more numerous!"
"I'll go!"
Upon hearing that, Quan Zhicheng also imitated Ye Liuyun, storing the corpses into his Storage Ring and fleeing.
Xiao Yunfang, helpless, had no choice but to do the same, catching up to Ye Liuyun.
But before they could catch their breath, over twenty second- and third-layer martial cultivators came after them.
This time, Ye Liuyun finally released Lei Ming and the others to fight together.
The three fourth-layer early-stage ferocious beasts he had newly captured were never used.
They had just wiped out this wave when another wave of over thirty people came up behind them.
This time, they were all third-layer realm martial cultivators, not a single second-layer realm among them.
Quan Zhicheng had no choice but to pick an early-stage third-layer martial cultivator to fight, yet he was beaten into serious injury by his opponent.
Ye Liuyun saw that he showed no fear of battle and did not abandon him.
"Relax, I'll store you in the Space World!"
Ye Liuyun told him to relax, but in fact he had his avatar store him inside the avatar's own Space World, without exposing his own Space World.
The avatar wore the Invisibility Cloak, so Xiao Yunfang couldn't tell whether the person had been taken away by Ye Liuyun.
