Chapter 168 - Overwhelming Heavenly South

As Master Zhiyang and Wei Wuya, the two Great Cultivators, made their moves, the atmosphere immediately became incredibly solemn.

The Demonic Path Six Sects, Righteous Path Alliance, Heavenly Dao Alliance, and several Nascent Soul Cultivators from the Nine Nations Alliance all gathered their Magic Power, ready to strike at any moment.

Li Feiyu scanned them, then suddenly laughed heartily.

"What are you laughing at?" Fellow Daoist Hehuan swallowed a high-grade Medicinal Pill, slowly recovering from his injuries.

Li Feiyu looked at him, "I'm laughing at how people gather for profit, and in the future, they will inevitably split because of profit."

"The closer your cooperation is today, the more intense your fighting will be in the future. You've finally achieved a balance, why are you in such a hurry to break it?"

Wei Wuya said, "Then, Fellow Daoist Li, what do you intend?"

"The Formation was repaired by me, and it was also discovered by me, so the ownership naturally belongs to me!"

"This way, you won't have to fight each other to the death over it. Isn't that better?"

Master Zhiyang said, "Fellow Daoist Li, your appetite is too big. Aren't you afraid you can't swallow it? If you just want a share, then we aren't unwilling to sit down and talk properly, after all, you are, in a way, a part of Heavenly South."

"It's because my strength is enough to stand on equal footing with any of you!"

Li Feiyu's lips curled into a slight smile, appearing both sinister and arrogant.

"Don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!"

Fellow Daoist Hehuan's defeat at Li Feiyu's hands made him incredibly furious, veins bulging on his forehead, looking hideous and terrifying.

"What if I insist on tasting the forfeit today?"

The three exchanged glances, Master Zhiyang's eyes narrowed, "Then don't blame us!"

Wei Wuya's black fingernails suddenly grew several inches, dark and shiny, incredibly hard, like divine Sharp Weapons. His body flickered, disappearing from his original spot, and in the next instant, he appeared behind Li Feiyu.

His fingernails glowed with a dark light, clawing towards Li Feiyu's back.

A golden light shield lit up, blocking the advance of the fingernails, but it didn't completely stop them. Wei Wuya's hand continued to probe into the light shield.

Where the fingernails penetrated, a purplish-black color appeared, and the golden light shield's defense weakened.

He Cultivated a mysterious and unparalleled poisonous attack, incredibly terrifying. Even the other two Great Cultivators didn't want to engage him in close combat; once a wound was inflicted, it wasn't so easy to clear.

"Earth Magnetism Limitless!"

A powerful repulsive force erupted from the earth core within Li Feiyu's Dantian.

This sudden power directly sent Wei Wuya flying.

The Earth Magnetism Divine Power, the closer one was to the core, the stronger the repulsive and attractive forces became.

The Divine Abilities in Fellow Daoist Hehuan and Master Zhiyang's hands paused, their expressions solemn, before they released them in the next instant.

A green ray and a dark ray, pushing against this repulsive force, rapidly approached Li Feiyu.

Their speed was originally imperceptible to the naked eye, but once they were only three zhang away from Li Feiyu, they became visible. Li Feiyu smiled slightly, turning and easily dodging them.

Master Zhiyang softly said, "What a truly strange Divine Ability!"

Of course, while the Earth Magnetism Limitless Divine Power was extremely powerful and could be controlled at will, it consumed a significant amount of Magic Power. Li Feiyu only used it when necessary.

"Golden Crow Transformation!"

Li Feiyu glanced at the three of them, let out a long roar, and golden light erupted from his body. Then, a series of crackling bone-bursting sounds rang out. Like Fellow Daoist Hehuan earlier, his entire body's muscles swelled, and golden light flowed beneath his skin.

At this moment, his entire being exuded a scorching aura, and even the air he exhaled carried an extremely high temperature, capable of scorching some low-level Cultivators.

The change didn't stop there. Two lumps of flesh suddenly bulged on Li Feiyu's back, and with a tearing sound, a pair of bone wings emerged. One by one, crimson-gold energy feathers continuously appeared, quickly filling out the entire pair of bone wings.

A pair of crimson-gold wings spread, vibrated, and countless light feathers fell, then stirred up a violent hurricane.

The next moment, Li Feiyu's swollen muscles returned to normal, but the golden light continued to flow.

Jin Yuan sighed with emotion, "The Comprehension Ability of humans is truly astonishing; they can actually research such a Divine Ability."

"Body Refining Cultivation Technique? No, it's a Demonic Transformation Divine Ability!"

Master Zhiyang said with a look of surprise.

Li Feiyu looked at Wei Wuya, a sharp glint in his eyes. The golden wings behind him erupted with three types of power: wind, thunder, and fire. He almost instantly disappeared from his original spot.

Fellow Daoist Hehuan and the others constantly looked around, releasing their Divine Sense to try and lock onto Li Feiyu.

However, Li Feiyu's speed was too fast. With their Divine Sense, they couldn't lock onto him in such a small space. They had no choice but to cover the entire area, only then vaguely sensing him.

Li Feiyu continuously moved, getting used to this terrifying speed.

With the eruption of wind, thunder, and fire, Li Feiyu was confident that he was no longer inferior to Crimson Crow's full-power Golden Crow Transformation Divine Ability.

However, because the speed was terrifyingly fast, Li Feiyu found it difficult to completely control it for a time.

He could only rely on this method to continuously familiarize himself.

Fortunately, Li Feiyu didn't take long to initially master this astonishing speed.

Li Feiyu appeared behind Wei Wuya, throwing a punch accompanied by Sun True Fire.

Wei Wuya sensed it, his figure flickered and disappeared from his original spot. Li Feiyu's lips curled, and he also disappeared, still appearing behind him.

Seeing Li Feiyu's actions, Wei Wuya frowned incessantly, knowing he couldn't dodge. He then erupted with purplish-black mist all over his body, the mist filled with terrifying poison.

He wanted to use this to force Li Feiyu back, but Li Feiyu's Face was full of mockery.

Terrifying Sun True Fire rose, burning the purplish-black mist. At the same time, the punch that hadn't landed earlier now struck again, finally hitting Wei Wuya's back.

However, Wei Wuya was not to be trifled with. As he realized Li Feiyu was fearless of his poisonous mist, his body flew forward, only being grazed slightly.

But even with just a slight graze, he now suffered the same fate as Fellow Daoist Hehuan.

The Yuanying Stage and Core Formation Stage Cultivators present were all dumbfounded.

After Fellow Daoist Hehuan, Wei Wuya also suffered a loss at Li Feiyu's hands. They looked towards Master Zhiyang.

If Li Feiyu targeted him, he would likely suffer the same fate!

A Yuanying Intermediate Stage Cultivator, less than three hundred years old, actually surpassed any of their Great Cultivators in Heavenly South!

If they hadn't witnessed it themselves, even if they told others, no one would believe them!

Jin Yuan saw that some Nascent Soul Cultivators wanted to make a move, and smiled, saying, "I advise you not to act rashly. If you join in without thinking, I can guarantee that Li Feiyu will not hold back in the slightest."

"He can injure your Heavenly South Great Cultivators, so he can easily kill you."

"You've seen his speed; the three Great Cultivators can't do anything to him."

"Besieging him is useless!"

Crimson Crow sneered, "A bunch of idiots!"

The Nascent Soul Cultivators looked at each other, also feeling that Jin Yuan's words made sense.

Long Han thought for a moment and said, "Fellow Daoist Jin, I truly don't understand Fellow Daoist Li's thoughts. Since he has such strength, and in this current situation, it would naturally be best to reduce the power of our four major forces as much as possible."

"Perhaps. I'll tell you a joke that you might not believe: Fellow Daoist Li is actually quite easygoing!"

Everyone rolled their eyes in unison.

Easygoing my foot! Is there anyone more domineering than him?

The three Great Cultivators had already given him an out, only requiring him to give up the Ancient Teleportation Array and share the profits, but he refused to budge an inch!

Jin Yuan didn't offer much explanation, as this was a conclusion he had drawn from spending a long time with Li Feiyu.

Of course, this "easygoing" nature only manifested when there were no conflicts of interest.

"Subdue the three Great Cultivators of Heavenly South." Jin Yuan sighed with emotion in his heart. Although he felt it was unlikely, he was also incredibly expectant of Li Feiyu accomplishing this feat.

"Perhaps Fellow Daoist Li has truly made significant progress in this short time, it's hard to say."

The Nascent Soul Cultivators of the four major forces began to quiet down, honestly observing and waiting for them to decide the victor.

Fellow Daoist Hehuan said, "His speed is too troublesome; it must be restrained first!"

"Zhiyang, what are you waiting for?"

"You two protect me for a while!"

Master Zhiyang said, patting his Storage Pouch. Twelve Formation Flags appeared before him, rotating around him, and then he made hand seals.

Fellow Daoist Hehuan and Wei Wuya positioned themselves in front and behind him as guards!

"You three Great Cultivators have probably never cooperated so fully since you became famous!"

Li Feiyu smiled, spreading his wide wings. Instantly, countless energy golden feathers condensed, falling like a meteoric fire rain.

Fellow Daoist Hehuan and Wei Wuya fully resisted, a light screen enveloping them.

Li Feiyu's figure was ghostly, constantly appearing and disappearing. The next moment, he arrived above Master Zhiyang's head and stomped down fiercely.

A massive force, no less than that of a Level 10 Demon Beast, landed on the light screen. Sun True Fire exploded, scattering countless sparks.

Crack, crack~

The light screen shattered!

Wei Wuya and Fellow Daoist Hehuan simultaneously struck out with a palm, and Li Feiyu rapidly retreated.

At this moment, Master Zhiyang's countless hand seals landed on the Formation Flags. Each Formation Flag rose with a green light pillar, followed by a massive light screen appearing, covering the entire battlefield.

Li Feiyu stopped and observed for a moment.

"A good Grand Formation. I didn't expect Master Zhiyang to also be a Grandmaster of Formations. However, if it were a solo battle, with things changing in an instant, you wouldn't be able to use this method!"

Master Zhiyang ignored him, lightly shouting, "Shrink!"

The massive light screen began to slowly contract.

Fellow Daoist Hehuan rubbed his fists, his eyes revealing excitement, "In a little while, I'll see what use your speed has!"

"What if I don't rely on speed? Fellow Daoist Hehuan, do you dare to fight me in close combat?"

Fellow Daoist Hehuan's voice faltered. After Li Feiyu's demonic transformation, his physical defense and strength alone were comparable to a Level 10 Demon Beast, and with the ability to use other Divine Abilities, he could be said to have no weaknesses.

At this moment, he also had to admit that Li Feiyu's combat power was above any of the three of them.

"What's the use of saying such nonsense? Aren't you afraid that your demonic transformation time will end now?"

Li Feiyu smiled slightly, his figure flickering, appearing in front of Fellow Daoist Hehuan. He threw a punch, but Master Zhiyang and Wei Wuya appeared on either side.

Wei Wuya's black fingernails were incredibly hard, far surpassing ordinary Magic Treasures, and carried poison. He attacked with them, while Master Zhiyang flew out a horsetail whisk from his body, each white strand incredibly tough!

Fellow Daoist Hehuan sneered, striking out a ball of demonic fire towards Li Feiyu's Face.

Li Feiyu was quite wary of Wei Wuya's poisonous attack. The attack he had directed at Fellow Daoist Hehuan, in the next moment, struck Wei Wuya.

After sending him flying, Fellow Daoist Hehuan's demonic fire had already arrived close by, and Master Zhiyang's horsetail whisk condensed together, forming a drill, piercing towards Li Feiyu's abdomen.

"Earth Magnetism Limitless!"

The two were prepared, forcefully circulating their Magic Power to resist, their bodies only forced back a few feet. Their attacks still struck towards Li Feiyu.

The Profound Yellow Qi had not yet reached the level where it could resist the attacks of Great Cultivators, especially while he was in the air.

"Blazing Sun Dharma Body!"

A golden light shield instantly appeared, timely blocking the attacks of Fellow Daoist Hehuan and Master Zhiyang.

However, the full power of the two was not to be underestimated. The Blazing Sun Dharma Body, not yet at Major Achievement, couldn't fully block it, and instantly burst into golden fragments.

Because of this, Li Feiyu used this force to rapidly retreat.

However, Wei Wuya, who had been sent flying by Li Feiyu earlier, appeared behind Li Feiyu, intending to deliver a fierce blow to him to avenge the previous attack.

Li Feiyu's crimson-gold wings vibrated behind him, and his figure suddenly vanished, reappearing at the edge of the light barrier.

The light barrier Formation was still continuously shrinking. It seemed that in less than an incense stick's time, only a few feet of space would remain.

Currently, Li Feiyu still had space to maneuver and dodge, but that might not be the case later.

His expression was serious. The three Great Cultivators, who had long been famous, were indeed difficult to deal with. Each had their strengths, and when they joined forces, it was not as simple as one plus one.

Li Feiyu sighed, then suddenly dispelled the effects of the Golden Crow Transformation, causing his aura to drop significantly.

Fellow Daoist Hehuan and the others were surprised.

The other Nascent Soul Cultivators all showed joy in their brows.

One of them said, "To think he could fight three Great Cultivators alone, that's simply wishful thinking!"

"Can't hold on anymore, huh!"

Jin Yuan merely smiled faintly, offering no explanation, but Crimson Crow spoke again, cursing, "A bunch of idiots!"

Many people glared at it angrily, but remembering its strength, their gazes softened a bit.

Master Zhiyang laughed, "Fellow Daoist Li, are you admitting defeat?"

"What we discussed earlier is still valid. As long as you are willing to give up complete control of this Ancient Teleportation Array, we can stop here."

Although Fellow Daoist Hehuan really wanted to eliminate Li Feiyu, if the other two didn't help, he himself would probably be in danger!

Li Feiyu took out the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk that Yuan Yao had given him earlier. A few sips remained, which he drank in one go.

With a gentle squeeze, the porcelain bottle turned into powder in Li Feiyu's hand, scattering with the wind.

The rich fragrance and the recovery of Li Feiyu's magic power made Fellow Daoist Hehuan exclaim in surprise, "Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk?!"

"You actually still possess such a rare treasure!"

He paused, then added, "However, do you think that with your magic power restored, you can contend with the three of us?"

"Why not?"

Fellow Daoist Hehuan's voice was icy, "It seems you've made up your mind to fight us to the death!"

"Fellow Daoists, do we still need to hold back?"

Master Zhiyang's expression also turned cold. He felt he had already given Li Feiyu enough Face. Even a clay figure has a temper, let alone a Great Cultivator like him.

If Li Feiyu hadn't been so powerful, and he didn't want to make things too difficult, they probably would have crushed him like an ant long ago.

"Then don't blame us!"

"Actually, I forgot to tell you all, my strongest asset is still my Magic Treasure!"

Jin Yuan's lips curved slightly, "Fellow Daoist Li is finally getting serious!"

Long Han and Feng Bing's hearts tightened, and they watched intently, afraid to miss a moment.

The three Great Cultivators all changed their expressions, their brows furrowing slightly.

Li Feiyu looked at the shrinking light barrier and said, "The Formation is good, but it's still not enough. Also, I still prefer a more spacious battle area."

A splendid diagram, shimmering with five-colored light, flew out from the top of his head.

The Formation diagram vibrated gently, and immediately, a five-colored light barrier began to expand, blocking the cyan light barrier a moment later.

The five-colored light barrier continued to expand, and the battlefield space once again became vast.

Master Zhiyang exclaimed in shock, "A Formation diagram?!"

"You actually refined a Formation diagram! This not only requires extremely profound Formation and Artifact Refining attainments, but also a massive amount of Materials and continuous research to succeed."

"Once successful, the Formation imprinted within the Formation diagram can be deployed in an instant."

Master Zhiyang had also considered this idea, but the difficulty was too great, and he eventually gave up. If he were fortunate enough to enter the Deity Transformation Stage and had ample time, perhaps he could research it.

"My power is being suppressed!"

After the Formation was fully deployed, Fellow Daoist Hehuan immediately noticed the changes in himself.

"What kind of Formation is this?!"

Li Feiyu smiled without speaking. From the Formation diagram, a five-colored small mountain flew out. The small mountain gradually grew larger, quickly forming a colossal peak.

The Sumeru Five Elements Mountain descended towards Fellow Daoist Hehuan. Fellow Daoist Hehuan's pressure doubled, yet he couldn't escape. An invisible force firmly locked onto him.

"Help me quickly!" Fellow Daoist Hehuan shouted.

Master Zhiyang and Wei Wuya tried to attack Li Feiyu. Li Feiyu dodged, then he appeared above Master Zhiyang, opening his five fingers.

A five-colored energy hand condensed, also like a mountain peak, pressing down on Master Zhiyang.

Within this Grand Formation, the power of the Five Elements Creation Palm increased by several folds. Master Zhiyang's Cultivation Technique was between the Five Elements, and his Divine Ability faced the Five Elements Creation Palm, all falling short and unable to break through.

He found it hard to believe that he was being forced into a frantic state by a single Divine Ability!

With a flicker of his figure, Li Feiyu appeared not far from Wei Wuya, holding a ball of golden Sun True Fire in his hand, and said with a faint smile, "Fellow Daoist Wei Wuya, now only you are left!"

In the blink of an eye, Li Feiyu had suppressed two Great Cultivators and was directly facing Wei Wuya.

Everyone's Faces turned pale with fright!

Is this even human?!

Are you cultivating the same immortal Dao as us?!

Crimson Crow's eyes were full of triumph, and it mocked again, "A bunch of idiots!"

At this moment, no one dared to show any disrespect. Even if they could deal with this Spirit Beast, could they deal with the one above?

"Fellow Daoist Wei Wuya, your poison Cultivation Technique is indeed overbearing, but my extremely Yang and extremely rigid flames are one of your natural enemies."

"Then let's try!"

Wei Wuya's Face was cold. Streaks of purple-black light burst from his fingertips, intertwining into a giant net that enveloped Li Feiyu.

Li Feiyu's body was engulfed in blazing Sun True Fire, and a pillar of fire shot into the sky. After only an instant of stalemate, it broke through the encirclement of the poison net.

Li Feiyu's body was covered in golden light, and the power of wind and lightning surged behind him, circling Wei Wuya. With Sun True Fire in one hand and Lunar True Fire in the other, he put Wei Wuya in a rather sorry state.

Facing the Five Fingers Mountain formed by Divine Ability, Master Zhiyang could only continuously dodge. He even tried to make the Five Fingers Mountain collide with the Sumeru Five Elements Mountain.

However, both were under Li Feiyu's Divine Sense control, so how could he let them succeed?

At this point, they completely understood Li Feiyu's strength.

Master Zhiyang said, "I didn't expect, Fellow Daoist Li, that you would actually pursue the path of complete Five Elements. What great ambition!"

Li Feiyu fought Wei Wuya while saying distractedly, "Then, Shangren, how do you think I wield this Five Elements Divine Power?"

"Divine Ability transforming into form, Five Elements condensing, you have already grasped the essence of Five Elements transformation!"

Puff puff ~

Li Feiyu broke through Wei Wuya's surrounding poisons and simultaneously struck Wei Wuya's chest with both palms. The overbearing Sun True Fire, combined with the Lunar True Fire that freezes all things, immediately caused Wei Wuya to suffer severe injuries. As he flew backward, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of purple-black blood.

His poison Cultivation Technique was overbearing, and having cultivated to this extent, every part of his body contained potent toxins.

Wei Wuya was severely injured, and Li Feiyu then unleashed a burst of extreme cold Qi. Master Zhiyang, who was fully focused on dealing with the Five Elements Creation Palm, was immediately struck by the extreme cold Qi.

After spitting blood, his body began to gradually freeze.

With the "Five Fingers Mountain" pressing down, his body injured, and his movements hindered, Master Zhiyang's situation was dire.

As for Fellow Daoist Hehuan, he was even more miserable. He had suffered significant injuries in his previous battle with Li Feiyu.

Although he was not an Ancient Devil, due to cultivating Demonic Technique, with Li Feiyu's slight modification, he was also affected by the Devil Suppressing effect.

The more profound a Cultivator's Demonic Technique, the greater the Devil Suppressing effect.

Coupled with the Sumeru Five Elements Mountain, a Magic Treasure that Li Feiyu had painstakingly refined, its power was astonishing. He suffered continuous injuries, constantly channeling his magic power to resist, and had already spat out several mouthfuls of blood.

Li Feiyu, at the cost of immense magic power, used the Great Five Elements Sword Formation diagram and his own Five Elements Divine Power to suppress the three Great Cultivators of Heavenly South.

As for his true trump card, it remained unrevealed.

Now, the Sword Formation was initially perfected, but because of its immense size, it consumed a vast amount of magic power. Even with Li Feiyu's current magic power, he could not sustain it for too long.

However, its power was truly astonishing!

"Gentlemen, do you wish to continue?"

Although admitting defeat under public scrutiny would cause them to lose Face, it was better than suffering irreparable severe injuries, which would be far too much of a loss.

Master Zhiyang's Face showed a bitter smile, "Fellow Daoist Li's Divine Ability is unparalleled, truly akin to a celestial being. It is a great fortune for our Heavenly South to have you. I am no match!"

Fellow Daoist Hehuan said, "People of the Righteous Path always like to drag things out. Wouldn't it be simpler to just admit defeat instead of spouting so much nonsense!"

"Li Feiyu, I cannot afford to offend you. This Ancient Teleportation Array is yours, and Yue Country is also yours!"

"Fellow Daoist Hehuan, you are quite straightforward!"

Wei Wuya also spoke, "I admit defeat!"

Li Feiyu laughed heartily, "Gentlemen, remember your words today. Within the territory of my Yue Country, Cultivators above the Nascent Soul Stage from all major forces are not allowed to cause trouble. If I find out, I don't mind paying a visit to your territories!"

"As for the matter of the Ancient Teleportation Array... I will discuss it with you all later!"

Afterward, he looked at the people from the four major forces in the distance.

"Today, I establish the Five Elements Sect in Yue Country, and Yue Country is the territory of my Five Elements Sect!"

As his words fell, Li Feiyu withdrew his Divine Ability, recalled the Sumeru Five Elements Mountain, and the Formation diagram returned to his body!

Master Zhiyang breathed a sigh of relief. His eyes, looking at the Formation diagram, were filled with envy. Without the suppression of the Five Elements Creation Palm, he immediately exerted all his strength to expel the extreme cold Qi from his body.

He succeeded a moment later.

He bowed and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Li, for showing mercy. Today's matter was quite disruptive. As we came in a hurry, we did not prepare a lavish gift. In the future, my Righteous Path will certainly present a grand gift!"

"I await Fellow Daoist Zhiyang's grand gift." Li Feiyu smiled faintly.

Fellow Daoist Hehuan and Wei Wuya also expressed the same, and the Heavenly Dao Alliance similarly made a promise.

The four major forces of Heavenly South suffered losses in Yue Country, losing much Face, and became stepping stones for Li Feiyu's rise, solidifying the Five Elements Sect's prestige.

This Heavenly South, in a single day, transformed from four major forces into five major forces.

It would likely become famous throughout Heavenly South soon.

The Demonic Path, Righteous Path, Heavenly Dao Alliance, and Nine Nations Alliance, the four major forces, left in a dispirited manner, their Faces extremely grim, yet helpless!

Li Feiyu alone could subdue the entire Heavenly South. Who would dare to have an opinion?

After they left, Li Feiyu's figure swayed slightly. The magic power, fully replenished by the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk, now only had one or two layers remaining. The consumption was indeed significant!

"Fellow Daoist Jin Yuan, I'll leave you to manage the overall situation here!"

Crimson Crow flashed with a rainbow light, flew to Li Feiyu's shoulder, and then together they entered the secret chamber in the underground cave of the mine pit to meditate and recuperate.

Crimson Crow asked with some confusion, "Master, why didn't you deploy the Sword Formation and directly eliminate them? Wouldn't that be simpler?"

"It would be simpler, but it would cause trouble in the future!"

"This is good."

"Only by keeping them alive can they provide me with a continuous stream of resources."
