Chapter 217: Chapter 216: Reversal of the Situation"This little bastard actually knows how to play mind games?!" The cultivator from Thunder Cloud Mountain in the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm thought Ye Xuan was about to employ some sort of technique. Watching as Ye Xuan’s hand shot straight forward, he didn’t even think before lifting his own hand to swat away Ye Xuan’s right hand. Thud———— Then, Ye Xuan’s hand, sharp as a blade, directly sliced off the arm of the Thunder Cloud Mountain cultivator and continued its unstoppable trajectory toward his heart! "Ah————" The Thunder Cloud Mountain cultivator let out a piercing scream, but his reaction was exceptionally swift, retreating immediately. His reaction was fast, but Ye Xuan was faster. Ye Xuan had already calculated his opponent’s move, and the moment he retreated, Ye Xuan suddenly accelerated. Pchit—a soft sound. Ye Xuan’s hand, like a drawn blade, easily sliced open the cultivator’s True Qi shield and instantly pierced through his left chest, mixing with splinters of bone as it entered his heart. Bang! With a fierce grasp, Ye Xuan swirled his hand inside the cultivator’s heart, brutally crushing it. "You... " The face of the Thunder Cloud Mountain cultivator showed utter astonishment, and then he helplessly fell backward. In his final moment before death, he couldn’t fathom how his defenses had been breached by Ye Xuan. During their exchange, he had been constantly on guard for whatever trick Ye Xuan might use, hence he had protected himself with True Qi. Given his level of cultivation, unless Ye Xuan utilized Spiritual Energy, it would be very difficult to break through his defenses. But Ye Xuan was unarmed, so the cultivator had concluded that Ye Xuan could never breach his defenses. All he needed to do was deplete Ye Xuan’s True Qi, then he could easily claim his head. But he never imagined that Ye Xuan’s hand would be so ’sharp’! Sharp enough to sever his arm with one strike, pierce through his heart, and shatter it! From beginning to end, he hadn’t even brought his full strength to bear, but instead fought Ye Xuan with an almost playful demeanor. Bang! The Heavenly Phenomenon Realm cultivator from Thunder Cloud Mountain toppled backward powerlessly, crashed to the ground with a dull thud, and breathed no more. Ye Xuan casually shook his hand, his expression as cold as ever. He had exploited the man’s mentality, and then caught him off guard to finish him off. His cultivation was indeed far inferior to the man’s. But in terms of combat experience, he was streets ahead. Cultivation is just one aspect of strength, but not the absolute one. This, Ye Xuan had said before. High cultivation indicates strength. But low cultivation doesn’t necessarily mean lack of strength. Strength comprises many factors. Luck, combat methods, on-the-spot performance, intellect—these are all key components that determine strength. Before one has the ability to kill an enemy in a single blow, all these factors must be considered. If Ye Xuan were just an ordinary cultivator at the Daoist Platform Realm today, Then that expert at the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm could easily kill him with a slap. But Ye Xuan was not. Therefore, the one who died was the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm cultivator. "The first one." Ye Xuan withdrew his gaze and looked toward the remaining twelve Heavenly Phenomenon Realm cultivators. Of them, ten were blocked by his Sword Qi Rolling Dragon Barrier. He had released all his Sword Intent just for this reason. "How is this possible?!" At this moment, the two cultivators from Xuanmo Cave and Ancient Yun Shang Country had expressions as if they had seen ghosts as they looked at Ye Xuan. "You actually killed Ba Zhong!" The cultivator from Ancient Yun Shang Country had an extremely ugly expression on his face. The deceased from Thunder Cloud Mountain, a Heavenly Phenomenon Realm expert, was indeed named Ba Zhong. "What did I just see!" It wasn’t just them, even Murong Hai, Hua Yunfei, and the others watching the battle from the Golden Pond were deeply shocked. How could this Ye Xuan kill a Heavenly Phenomenon Realm expert?! It was too strange! That moment had been too much for them to take in. A Heavenly Phenomenon Realm expert had actually died at the hands of a Daoist Platform Realm cultivator. If this were to get out, most likely no one would believe it! "Damn, Big Brother actually killed one of their Heavenly Phenomenon Realm cultivators!" The people of Emperor Immortal Sect were stunned as well. That was just too powerful! "What’s going on!?" Liu Tianyi, who had just slapped Wen Lin to death, was also shocked, and couldn’t believe what he was seeing as he turned to look at Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan’s right hand was still dripping with blood. But that blood wasn’t Ye Xuan’s, it was from the Thunder Cloud Mountain’s Heavenly Phenomenon Realm cultivator Ba Zhong! A spine-chilling feeling emerged in their hearts. This Ye Xuan was simply a monster. With Great Success Sword Intent in one hand, he instantly blocked ten Heavenly Phenomenon Realm cultivators, then faced Huang Nian’s surprise attack, countered and killed him, and later single-handedly fought Ba Zhong, crushing his heart. If not a monster, then what?! Boom! In the midst of a fierce battle, Zhou Youwei too, was exuding divine might, pushing every sword strike to the limit. Facing the siege of over a dozen princes, she showed no signs of defeat; on the contrary, she became ever more valiant, causing everyone’s hearts to tremble! She also noticed Ye Xuan killing Ba Zhong, steadied her mind, and fought with stable and measured tactics, forcing Xi Jianfeng and others to become quite flustered. However, this was only temporary. The Great Emperor Immortal Skill was consuming True Qi very quickly. If things continued like this, she certainly couldn’t hold on much longer! "Husband..." Zhou Youwei murmured softly in her heart, her beautiful face showing a determined expression. It seemed she had made a certain decision. "Youwei, do not act rashly." But at that moment, Ye Xuan’s voice appeared in Zhou Youwei’s ear. Her heart trembled, and she had to suppress the thoughts in her mind. "You all, deserve to die," said Ye Xuan, his expression indifferent. Suddenly, four three-meter-tall bronze divine puppets appeared beside Ye Xuan, flashing cold lights and exuding an intimidating aura. "What is that?" Seeing the four bronze divine puppets beside Ye Xuan, everyone was puzzled. It was said before that Divine Puppet Masters were extremely rare in this world and there were few records of them. Even fewer people knew about divine puppets. So when they saw the bronze divine puppets beside Ye Xuan, they were all baffled. Boom! The next moment, the four bronze divine puppets suddenly charged out, heading straight for Xi Jianfeng, Liu Tianyi, and the others. Their speed was incredibly fast! However, there were no fluctuations of True Qi from the bronze divine puppets, which puzzled them even more. "What kind of monster is this?" Liu Tianyi’s face darkened as he saw one of the bronze divine puppets rushing toward him. "Your Highness!"

A Heavenly Phenomenon Realm cultivator from Ancient Yun Shang Country spotted the bronze divine puppet charging at Liu Tianyi and immediately, his eyes sank, and he leapt towards Liu Tianyi. Boom! He arrived in front of Liu Tianyi, blocking the bronze divine puppet for him and clashing with a palm strike. Crack————— Then, the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm cultivator’s arm was directly broken. "Ah————" The Heavenly Phenomenon Realm cultivator was sent flying backward, screaming out in pain with cold sweat forming on his forehead. "What?!" Liu Tianyi’s face changed drastically. This monster could send a Heavenly Phenomenon Realm cultivator flying with one palm?! "Ah————" Meanwhile, the other three bronze divine puppets had already charged out, attacking Xi Jianfeng and the others. In almost an instant, six people were rendered crippled. This startled Xi Jianfeng and the others, who hastily retreated, not daring to confront the bronze divine puppets head-on. But the three bronze divine puppets, following Ye Xuan’s orders, pursued and began to slaughter. As the three bronze divine puppets assisted, Zhou Youwei found herself liberated, her attacks even more fierce, and already powerful, she started to chase and kill Xi Jianfeng and others once she received support. The situation was immediately turned on its head. "These are the bronze divine puppets of Master Xu Jiu from my sect, but why does my husband have them?" Zhou Bingyi, in the crowd, noticed the four bronze divine puppets joining the battle, and her mouth hung open in surprise. "Wow, could this stinky brother-in-law be a Divine Puppet Master just like Master Xu Jiu?!" Zhou Bingyi looked at Ye Xuan, finding it beyond belief. The entire Emperor Immortal Sect had only one Divine Puppet Master, Xu Jiu. It had been many years since, and only recently had Xu Jiu reemerged. "Even if he learned the Divine Puppet Technique from Master Xu Jiu, it wouldn’t be so fast..." Zhou Bingyi looked at Ye Xuan, finding him more and more inscrutable. "Is this the preparation of your Emperor Immortal Sect?!" The Heavenly Phenomenon Realm cultivator from Xuanmo Cave, seeing the four bronze divine puppets start to slaughter, his face turned ugly as he stared at Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan smiled faintly, a cold smile, and spoke slowly, "I wasn’t planning to use them, but since you’ve all come to me, I can only slaughter all of you."
