After Ye Chenfeng appeared in the sky.

Everyone present focused their gaze on the mid-air.

Almost everyone was puzzled about who this person suddenly appearing in the air was. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Ye Chenfeng waved his arm towards the stone pillars in the formation below, and two gentle forces instantly swept downwards.

These two gentle forces promptly released the restraints on Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong, pushing them out of the formation and onto the ground outside.

With Ye Chenfeng’s expertise in formations, he easily saw through the formation’s flaws on the ground, allowing him to easily use his power to push the sibling pair, Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong, out of the formation.

When Ye Chenfeng appeared in the air, old white Wu Fengxian and old black Jiang Yuntian immediately perceived that Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong had awakened their Spirit Fire Divine Bodies, explaining why Cheng Gaorong had taken them away.

Old white Wu Fengxian and old black Jiang Yuntian explained the role of the Spirit Fire Divine Body to Ye Chenfeng.

Tan Muya, Chu Guangtian, and Cheng Gaorong never expected that with a casual wave, Ye Chenfeng could see the flaws in the formation and push Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong out. Everything happened too suddenly.

Pushed out of the formation, Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong naturally saw Ye Chenfeng as well. Initially touched by his arrival, they were soon consumed by endless worry. As ordinary people, they could not perceive Ye Chenfeng’s strength; they didn’t understand how an Earth God Realm cultivator like Ye Chenfeng infiltrated Floating Cloud City.

After escaping the formation, the discomfort within Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong eased immediately. Seeing Ye Chenfeng in the air, they knew his meridians must have recovered, yet they still felt worried because despite this, how could an Earth God Realm cultivator like Ye Chenfeng possibly rival the Mid Divine King Realm City Lords? Cao Yunwei, using all her strength, weakly shouted, "Ye Chenfeng, leave quickly, don’t worry about us."

After hesitating for a moment, Cao Xiaodong also shouted, "Brother Ye, my sister is right, you must leave immediately."

Tan Muya, Chu Guangtian, and Cheng Gaorong, these three elders, all Divine Kings, could naturally sense the aura within Ye Chenfeng. Cheng Gaorong remembered Ye Chenfeng, recognizing him as the bait previously accompanied by the sibling pair. Why is it that Ye Chenfeng, who should be an ordinary person, has suddenly become an Initial Divine King Realm expert?

Cheng Gaorong briefly explained Ye Chenfeng’s identity to Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian, then shouted at Ye Chenfeng in the sky, "I didn’t expect a figure like you to be hidden in the dump. With your Initial Divine King Realm cultivation, what’s your purpose?"

Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong, having heard Cheng Gaorong’s words, were stunned.

Is Ye Chenfeng not an Earth God Realm expert but an Initial Divine King Realm expert?

Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong knew Cheng Gaorong wouldn’t speak nonsense, meaning Ye Chenfeng truly was an Initial Divine King Realm expert, and thirty years old?

This completely overturned Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong’s understanding. Even though they hadn’t ventured into the outside world, they knew reaching the Divine King Realm required long years, yet Ye Chenfeng reached it at thirty, guessing he must be a prominent figure in the outside world.

But among the three City Lords, the weakest was Mid Divine King Realm, yet Ye Chenfeng was merely Initial Divine King Realm! They knew that surpassing a level in combat within the Divine King Realm was nearly impossible.

The extremely weak Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong worried for Ye Chenfeng in their hearts, and Cao Yunwei shouted again, "Ye Chenfeng, leave quickly, leave quickly."

Ye Chenfeng looked at Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong on the ground and calmly, resolutely said, "I promised to protect you siblings, and I, Ye Chenfeng, am not one to go back on my word."

Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong felt a warmth in their hearts.

Ye Chenfeng set his gaze on the three City Lords. After learning about the Spirit Fire Divine Body from old white and old black, and about the three City Lords’ evil deeds, his fury surged infinitely. Had he arrived a moment later, the sibling pair might have turned into blood water, consumed by these bastards.

The Spiritual Qi River within his meridians started to operate intensely, Initial Divine King Realm aura overflowed everywhere, Ye Chenfeng resembling a volcano ready to erupt at any moment.

The Heavenly God Realm experts on the ground, realizing Ye Chenfeng was a Divine King Realm expert, dared not charge ahead anymore, knowing they would only end up dead against such a powerful foe.

Tan Muya, Chu Guangtian, and Cheng Gaorong did not care much upon sensing Ye Chenfeng’s Initial Divine King Realm presence, knowing any of their individual strengths surpassed his.

Cheng Gaorong sneered, "Boss, second, let me handle this kid! He thinks he’s the Initial Divine King Realm, but does he not know how vast the heavens are?"

As he spoke.

Cheng Gaorong stepped into the air.

The Spiritual Qi River within his meridians was already activated, and Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian truly didn’t intend to act. In their view, Cheng Gaorong had higher cultivation than Ye Chenfeng and shouldn’t have trouble defeating him.

A black Spiritual Energy was emitted from Cheng Gaorong’s body.

This black Spiritual Energy was filled with extreme evil Qi, like the devil’s aura from Hell.

Wave after wave of strong Spiritual Energy fluctuations rippled from his body.

A phantom image of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood emerged behind him, causing everyone on the ground, except Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian, to be filled with terror.

Cheng Gaorong was about to display his most powerful Secret Technique: the Evil Yuan Ghost Palm.

This Evil Yuan Ghost Palm was a Five-Star Secret Method known throughout Floating Cloud City and the dump.

Legend has it that this move’s power is massive, capable of instantly killing cultivators of the same level, but such tales are only spoken about by people from Floating Cloud City and the dump.

Cao Yunwei and Cao Xiaodong on the ground held their breath seeing this. Though they hoped Ye Chenfeng could withstand it, they had heard about its formidable strength.

Tan Muya and Chu Guangtian, seeing Cheng Gaorong directly use the Evil Yuan Ghost Palm, smiled slightly. Chu Guangtian said, "The third’s first move is a killing strike. Looks like there’s nothing exciting to watch; we can continue processing these Spirit Fire bodies."

Cheng Gaorong stepped back and thrust out his hand.

A giant black handprint gathered, fiercely rushing towards Ye Chenfeng, seemingly about to engulf the sky and earth.

"Kid, rest in peace!" Cheng Gaorong sneered.

Facing the giant black handprint, Ye Chenfeng’s expression remained extraordinarily calm.

Although the Evil Yuan Ghost Palm was a Five-Star Secret Method, Ye Chenfeng’s combat and defense abilities had greatly enhanced after crossing into the Initial Divine King Realm. In his eyes, Cheng Gaorong’s combat power felt insufficient, at most equivalent to an average Mid Divine King Realm expert, possibly due to prolonged isolation in the enigmatic space where resources were scarce, thus weakening cultivators compared to those outside.

Hence, despite Cheng Gaorong’s formidable-looking palm strike, it seemed hollow to Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng fortified his surrounding defenses to the peak, and his physical strength was comparable to a Mid Divine Venerable expert.

"Boom!"

He stood as the giant black handprint devoured him.

As Cheng Gaorong believed Ye Chenfeng was assuredly dead, intending to sneer openly.

A cold voice reached his ears, "Is this your strength? Seems the Mid Divine King Realm is unimpressive!"
