After their conversation, the two continued towards the Forbidden Land.
Soon, they crossed the vast mountain range and entered a barren, red wasteland.
Ye Xuan turned to Han Fei, who said gravely, “This is the Forbidden Land! From here, travel about a thousand miles, and you’ll encounter some Pan Clan powerhouses. To find the mysterious caves, you’d need to go several thousand miles further. If you’re lucky, you can obtain Great Path Crystals inside! After reaching the Heavenly Knowledge Sacred Realm, ordinary Dao Crystals are practically useless!”
Ye Xuan said softly, “Great Path Crystals, Court Master Han, how many do you have?”
Han Fei quickly shook his head, “None! I don’t have a single one!”
Ye Xuan was speechless. Did he look like a bandit?
Han Fei gave an awkward smile, “Young Master Ye, I truly don’t have any Great Path Crystals. They’re too rare!”
Ye Xuan laughed, “Don’t worry, Court Master Han. I, Ye Xuan, am not a bandit. I don’t rob everything!”
Han Fei remained silent.
Ye Xuan smiled and said, “Let’s go!”
With that, they headed into the distance.
Seeing this, Han Fei felt a headache coming on.
He realised this Young Master Ye was constantly scheming against him.
What a bandit!
Moments later, Ye Xuan suddenly stopped. He looked up into the distance, where a young man stood, dressed in simple beast hide, holding a massive iron staff, staring at him and Han Fei!
Ye Xuan asked, “Pan Clan?”
Han Fei nodded, “Yes!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “I’ll handle this!”
With that, he gripped his sword and walked towards the man.
Han Fei glanced at Ye Xuan but said nothing, stepping aside.
He wasn’t worried about Ye Xuan’s safety. This guy had countless protectors!
Suddenly, the man vanished from his spot. The next moment, his iron staff came crashing down towards Ye Xuan.
As the staff descended, the spacetime above Ye Xuan twisted violently!
At that moment, Ye Xuan drew his sword.
Not the Qingxuan Sword, just an ordinary Human Realm Sword!
Boom!
A burst of sword light erupted, and the man was sent flying tens of thousands of feet, crashing heavily into the ground, creating a massive abyss!
The force was terrifying!
Ye Xuan was stunned, then turned to Han Fei, who stood silent, inwardly shocked beyond measure.
Ye Xuan’s strength!
He hadn’t expected Ye Xuan’s power to be so formidable!
The Pan Clan man, though not in the Heavenly Knowledge Sacred Realm, was in the Heavenly Knowledge Realm, and here, that strength matched the Heavenly Knowledge Sacred Realm outside. Yet, he couldn’t even withstand one of Ye Xuan’s strikes!
Ye Xuan himself was dumbfounded!
He hadn’t expected the opponent to be so weak!
No, wait!
It’s that he was actually very strong!
Little Pen suddenly said, “Your strength far surpasses the Heavenly Knowledge Sacred Realm. If you use the momentum and intent of the Qingxuan Sword, you could even challenge a Saint Realm! Whether you’d win, though, is another matter!”
Ye Xuan nodded, initially thinking a new place would make him the underdog, but he was wrong!
His strength was now formidable!
He’d risen!
Haha!
Ye Xuan burst into laughter.
Just then, Han Fei tugged at Ye Xuan’s arm and said, “We need to go!”
Ye Xuan was puzzled, “Why?”
Han Fei pointed at the Pan Clan man climbing out of the abyss, “Look at what he’s doing!”
Ye Xuan looked over and saw the man muttering something incomprehensible.
Ye Xuan turned to Han Fei, who said seriously, “He’s calling for backup!”
Ye Xuan froze, then roared in anger, “He’s calling for help? So dishonourable?”
Han Fei said gravely, “If we don’t leave now, we’ll get mobbed soon!”
Ye Xuan hesitated, then said, “Then let’s make a strategic retreat!”
With that, he turned and vanished into the distance.
Seeing this, Han Fei hurriedly followed.
After they left, a large group of Pan Clan powerhouses appeared. Moments later, they rushed off…
…
Elsewhere, Han Fei led Ye Xuan to hide in an abandoned cave. Han Fei glanced around and said, “This place should be safe!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Court Master Han, with your strength, those Pan Clan members shouldn’t be your match, right?”
Han Fei shook his head with a smile, “Never kill here. Kill one, and they’ll retaliate endlessly. It’s a huge hassle!”
Ye Xuan said gravely, “Does the Pan Clan have saints too?”
Han Fei nodded, “Plenty, and most have achieved sainthood through physical cultivation. Their strength is absurdly powerful! Practically invincible!”
Ye Xuan asked, “Compared to them, how do you fare?”
Han Fei said, “About fifty-fifty!”
Fifty-fifty!
Ye Xuan smiled, “That’s good enough!”
Han Fei grew uneasy, “What are you planning?”
Ye Xuan said seriously, “Let’s go straight to the Pan Clan’s headquarters!”
Han Fei’s face darkened, “Young Master Ye, just the two of us?”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Yes!”
Han Fei fell silent.
Ye Xuan looked at him, “Are you scared?”
Han Fei gave a wry smile, “Young Master Ye, it’s not that I’m scared… It’s that the two of us really can’t take them on! The Pan Clan isn’t that simple. Most of them train their bodies to an extreme degree. They’re freaks!”
Ye Xuan said, “I want to train there!”
Han Fei hesitated, then said, “Young Master Ye, there’s some noise outside. I’ll check!”
Without waiting for Ye Xuan’s reply, he vanished from the cave entrance.
Ye Xuan froze, then chased after him, but Han Fei was already gone!
Seeing this, Ye Xuan’s face darkened!
That guy actually ran!
At that moment, the Great Path Pen suddenly said, “He doesn’t dare go crazy with you!”
Little Tower said calmly, “Small-minded! If he followed Young Master, would he miss out on benefits? Leaving now, he’s losing more!”
The Great Path Pen was silent for a moment, then said, “This place is no joke. I advise you not to underestimate it!”
Little Tower said, “Compared to Sister Destiny?”
Little Pen snapped, “Little Tower, must you argue?”
Little Tower said calmly, “I’m not arguing. I’m stating a fact!”
Ye Xuan suddenly laughed, “Stop quarrelling! This place has many powerhouses. I want to train here properly.”
He looked into the distance, “Right now, I lack real combat experience. I need to find some opponents to fight properly!”
With that, he walked off.
Fight!
Since creating the No-Rule Realm, he hadn’t had much real combat, so he didn’t fully grasp his own strength!
He wanted to fight true powerhouses!
Not long after Ye Xuan left, Han Fei, who had departed earlier, reappeared. Looking at Ye Xuan in the distance, he said softly, “Having backers is nice!”
He left because he was scared!
Ye Xuan could act recklessly without consequences, but he couldn’t!
Just then, a woman appeared beside Han Fei—it was Yuhan.
Yuhan looked into the distance, “Why are you with someone outside the Order?”
Han Fei’s expression was calm, and he didn’t speak.
Yuhan turned to him, “Not convenient to say?”
Han Fei said softly, “Miss Yuhan, want a shot at an opportunity?”
Yuhan looked at him, silent.
Han Fei smiled, “This Young Master Ye’s identity isn’t simple. If you can build a good relationship with him, your future will be limitless!”
Yuhan’s expression remained calm, “Is that so?”
Han Fei smiled, said no more, and turned to leave.
Yuhan glanced at him, then vanished into the distance.
…
Ye Xuan arrived at a barren plain. As soon as he stepped in, a powerful aura locked onto him.
He looked up and saw a middle-aged man in the distance, dressed in beast hide, holding a massive iron hammer, exuding a terrifying pressure.
Heavenly Knowledge Sacred Realm!
Sensing the man’s realm, Ye Xuan’s lips curved slightly. Finally, a strong opponent.
The man stared at Ye Xuan. Without any words, he charged forward, appearing before Ye Xuan in an instant. His giant hammer smashed towards Ye Xuan’s head!
Boom!
The smash turned the spacetime around Ye Xuan into a massive vortex!
The power was terrifying!
At that moment, Ye Xuan’s right hand suddenly held a sword. The next moment, he swung it upwards in a diagonal slash!
A burst of sword light erupted!
Boom!
Suddenly, both Ye Xuan and the man retreated rapidly. During Ye Xuan’s retreat, several Human Realm Swords flew out.
Boom, boom, boom!
With several explosive sounds, the man was forced back tens of thousands of feet. As he stopped, another sword slashed towards his forehead!
The man sidestepped, dodging the deadly strike.
At that moment, Ye Xuan appeared before him, slashing down with his sword!
Boom!
A cascade of sword light poured out!
The man blocked with his hammer.
Boom!
The spacetime around them shattered, turning to nothingness!
This time, neither retreated an inch!
The man stared at Ye Xuan. Suddenly, his left hand clenched into a fist, and he swung it towards Ye Xuan!
Ye Xuan didn’t let go but unleashed the Human Realm Sword Domain.
Instantly, countless sword lights engulfed them.
Boom, boom, boom!
The sword lights crisscrossed, tearing the surrounding spacetime into countless fragments, utterly terrifying.
Moments later, Ye Xuan stood calmly with his sword, while the man was tens of thousands of feet away, his body looking as if it had been sliced a thousand times, horrifyingly mangled.
His physical body was destroyed!
The man looked at Ye Xuan in disbelief, “Such a strong sword!”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly and was about to speak when two Pan Clan powerhouses appeared around him.
Ye Xuan’s face darkened, “A group fight?”
The man said calmly, “I love group fights. Not happy? You can call people too!”
Ye Xuan, “…”
…
