Chapter 683: Allies Flock In

Two days later, Ye Yuan emerged from seclusion, immediately causing a stir.

"Elder Brother Sect Master, you... you actually broke through two minor realms in just two days!"

"Unbelievable! Elder Brother Sect Master has been creating miracles ever since he joined the sect. Even now, that hasn't changed!"

"This cultivation speed is too heaven-defying! Remember when Elder Brother Sect Master joined the sect, he was only at the Spirit Liquid Realm. How long has it been, and he's already half a step away from the Divine Travel Realm!"

Ye Yuan's cultivation speed simply couldn't be measured by common sense. Ever since he entered the Nethercloud Sect, he had been the object of envy among his fellow disciples.

At first, some were unconvinced by his meteoric rise, but later, they didn't even have the qualification to be unconvinced.

Especially after the sect tournament, no one could replace Ye Yuan's position as the sect's strongest genius.

His genius was unmatched throughout the entire Boundless Realm, let alone in a small sect like the Nethercloud Sect.

Now, all that remained among his fellow disciples was admiration.

Ye Yuan found Long Tang and asked, "Which is the nearest Windstorm Realm force to us? Hmm... don't mention those below the Divine Travel Realm; destroying them wouldn't be of much use."

Long Tang was slightly startled, thought for a moment, and said, "Above the Divine Travel Realm, the nearest force should be the Zhuotian Sect, ten thousand li away. Some time ago, a Windstorm Realm expert at the third level of Divine Travel came and directly killed the Zhuotian Sect's ancestor. I heard his methods were extremely cruel, and the Zhuotian Sect ancestor died a miserable death."

A cold glint flashed in Ye Yuan's eyes, and he nodded, "Good, he's the one!"

From that day on, Ye Yuan began a frenzied campaign of revenge!

One day later, the Windstorm Realm expert from the Zhuotian Sect was beheaded by Ye Yuan and displayed outside the sect's gates!

All Windstorm Realm martial artists in the Zhuotian Sect were killed, not one left alive!

Five days later, Deer Cry City, a hundred thousand li from the Zhuotian Sect, was attacked. All Windstorm Realm martial artists died, and a Divine Travel Realm fifth-level expert was eliminated!

Ten days later, Greeting Wind City, Lightning-Snatching Sect, and Wind Demon Sect were simultaneously destroyed, and several Windstorm Realm Divine Travel martial artists were killed!

...

News of one Windstorm Realm force after another being destroyed quickly shook the entire Boundless Realm.

Boundless Realm martial artists scattered everywhere, greatly encouraged by the news, were inquiring about what force had risen against the heavens and launched a counterattack against the Windstorm Realm.

"Damn, that's satisfying! Since the Windstorm Realm invasion, the only good news was the victory at Red Light City; everything else was bad news. Later, even our home base was taken over, which pissed me off to no end! Now this suddenly emerging force has wiped out so many Windstorm Realm forces in one go, finally showing the might of our Boundless Realm!"

"Yeah! Since the Windstorm Realm invasion, the news has been heavier and heavier; I even felt life wasn't worth living! I wonder which force did this—so satisfying!"

"I heard it's a sect called the Nethercloud Sect, but when did our Boundless Realm have such a powerful sect? Remember, among the destroyed forces, there were even Divine Travel Realm sixth-level experts. To destroy such a force, you'd at least need a late Divine Travel Realm expert, right?"

"Nethercloud Sect? Never heard of it! But since they've made a name for themselves, we should go and join them! With just a few of us, if we run into a Windstorm Realm army, we wouldn't even be enough to fill their teeth!"

"You're right! Our Boundless Realm is now a scattered mess; we really need a true hero to unite everyone! Let's go, let's join them!"

In a small force, two leaders were discussing joining the Nethercloud Sect.

This scene was playing out in every corner of the southern Northern Domain.

This Nethercloud Sect was like the last straw a drowning man clutches at, giving them a final glimmer of hope.

Though this hope was very slim, it was undoubtedly far better than waiting for death!

In a short time, many forces, large and small, converged on Deer Cry City.

This was the stronghold Ye Yuan had chosen; the city was very large, could accommodate many martial artists, and was rich in various resources.

The Windstorm Realm martial artists hadn't even had time to enjoy it before Ye Yuan wiped them out.

In just half a month, a hundred thousand martial artists had gathered here!

One day, a massive force converged on Deer Cry City, numbering nearly thirty thousand!

Among the forces that had gathered in Deer Cry City so far, this was the largest.

Even in the current chaotic times, this force was not to be underestimated.

"Hey, are you from that Nethercloud Sect? Call your sect master out; I want to see him!" The leader said arrogantly.

The one receiving him was Long Tang.

With the help of Ye Yuan's pills, Long Tang had also broken through to the Soul Sea Realm.

The man before him was very strong, already at the peak of the ninth level of Soul Sea.

With such strength and leading such a large force, he was clearly no pushover.

But his attitude still annoyed Long Tang.

"If you come to Deer Cry City, you must abide by its rules! Elder Brother Sect Master is the leader of Deer Cry City; why should he come to see you? If you want to see him, you should request an audience!" Long Tang frowned.

Long Tang now had every reason to be proud; Ye Yuan's strength far exceeded his imagination.

He had originally thought it was impressive enough that Ye Yuan could defeat mid-Divine Travel Realm experts, but who knew his strength was absurdly high.

No matter how strong the Windstorm Realm force was, Ye Yuan and a few companions would go alone and directly slaughter them, leaving none alive.

His fellow disciples were just bystanders, not even qualified to make a move.

There was no help for it; their strength was too weak.

Long Tang knew that if not for the sake of their fellow disciples, Ye Yuan wouldn't even bother to look at them.

Now, Ye Yuan was completely in a different world from them.

But precisely because of this, Long Tang and his fellow disciples felt immensely proud.

Because even now, Ye Yuan still acknowledged himself as a member of the Nethercloud Sect!

"Oh? Don't you see how many people I've brought? Don't think that just because you've destroyed a few forces, you're something special! Although we have no Divine Travel Realm experts among us, we have killed mid-Divine Travel Realm experts! In terms of strength, we're not much worse than your sect master! What's wrong with him coming to see me?" The burly man said disdainfully.

Long Tang narrowed his eyes, clearly not believing the man's words.

A mid-Divine Travel Realm expert using hit-and-run tactics could easily wipe out this army of tens of thousands.

This guy was bragging without even drafting a script!

Just then, a voice rang out: "Chu Shi, half a year no see, you've become even more arrogant!"
