"Ye Feng, I know what you're thinking!"
Leng Yue frowned slightly. "The Blood Ancestor wasn't lying just now. My Angelic power, which can break through spatial barriers, does have certain limitations..."
"For this level of spatial barrier, if it were before, Ling Xi, Qiao Ying, and I could have dealt with it easily, but now..."
"It's already a pleasant surprise that we could save Qiao Ying by coming here... Let's hurry and leave..."
Leng Yue glanced at Xiao Xiao and quickly said to Ye Feng.
"Is that so..."
Ye Feng looked troubled. "I'll fight the Blood Ancestor for a while longer before leaving..."
"Ye Feng, you... what kind of logic is that?"
"What are you thinking about?"
Leng Yue, Ling Xi, and Qiao Ying were almost exasperated by Ye Feng's words. Shen Boliang's expression was also rather strange.
"Ye Feng, it's not that I want to discourage you, but spatial power is completely different from arcane energy and true energy. It's a power on a whole new level. Spatial power was once a power that only gods could wield..."
"The sides of a spatial barrier are two different worlds... Conventional attacks are completely ineffective..."
"Besides, you, Xiao Xiao, and Qiao Ying just had a lot of your vital blood and mental energy extracted by the Blood Ancestor. Your current state... you must be feeling dizzy, right?"
Leng Yue frowned and quickly said to Ye Feng.
"Mhm!"
Qiao Ying also nodded and added, "Ye Feng, I'm very grateful that you risked your life to save me, but we really need to leave now!"
"Uh... you guys deal with the other Blood Guards. I'll go fight the Blood Ancestor..."
Looking at the Blood Ancestor, who was completely enveloped by a spatial barrier not far away, Ye Feng ultimately didn't heed Leng Yue and the others' advice.
Specifically, as he practiced that mysterious set of movements, a peculiar thought emerged in his mind.
As soon as he finished speaking, a light flashed in Ye Feng's hand, and a delicate small bottle made of ice-attribute arcane essence appeared in his palm.
The delicate small bottle contained Nectar Ye Feng had prepared for emergencies. Under the watchful eyes of Ling Xi, Leng Yue, and Qiao Ying, he quickly unscrewed the cap and drank the Nectar inside.
"Drink!"
Ye Feng let out a low roar.
Although his physical fitness was already far beyond what it was before, and he had only taken a small portion of the Nectar specifically, the powerful energy contained within still caused a burning pain in his internal organs.
However, this pain was fleeting, replaced by surging and even power.
Within a few breaths, Ye Feng, whose complexion had been somewhat pale and spirit weak, became vibrant and energetic again.
"This... this taste... so... so fragrant... it contains a peculiar power!"
As the Nectar flowed from the bottle into Ye Feng's mouth, some of it had evaporated. Qiao Ying gently twitched her delicate nose, her face filled with surprise.
"Leng Yue, this scent... don't you find it somewhat familiar?"
Ling Xi's voice followed closely.
"Yes... yes... a familiar scent from a very, very long time ago..."
Leng Yue nodded slightly, her expression also filled with astonishment.
"No... it couldn't be... Nectar... Nectar, could it..."
Ling Xi continued, her words causing goosebumps to rise on Leng Yue and Qiao Ying.
"You guys keep a close eye on that guy Kohler. I have a feeling something is not right with him!"
As Ye Feng spoke, he took a step forward, and his figure instantly appeared beside Xiao Xiao. The true energy of his Tang blade flashed, and he slashed at Blood Eight with extreme speed.
Blood Eight's eyes turned cold, and an armor composed of numerous runes appeared on his body. His hands also manifested two curved hunting knives made entirely of scarlet runes.
"Clang! Crack!~"
As the light of Ye Feng's Tang blade flashed, the rune-composed armor on Blood Eight's body was instantly cleaved by Ye Feng.
"Clang!"
"Whoosh! Slice!~"
A crisp sound of metal impact and a sharp sound of flesh being cut rang out almost simultaneously. It was Blood One who had arrived in front of Blood Eight, blocking Ye Feng's Tang blade with his demonic dagger.
Even so, Blood Eight's entire chest was almost split in half by Ye Feng's true energy.
"Ugh!~"
Blood Eight reacted quickly. He let out a muffled groan and stepped back. Blood Six and Blood Nine attacked Ye Feng from the sides at tricky angles.
"Clang! Bang bang!~ Crack~"
A series of metallic clashes and impacts instantly erupted. Red and white light flashed continuously as Qiao Ying and "Shen Boliang" rushed forward to block the attacks of Blood Six and Blood Nine.
Leng Yue and Ling Xi remained still, their gazes fixed warily on the Blood Ancestor.
"Ye Feng, if the situation turns bad, retreat quickly!"
"Shen Boliang" said to Ye Feng solemnly. Qiao Ying also nodded.
"Mhm!"
Ye Feng nodded. The true energy of his Tang blade flashed, and he lunged directly towards the Blood Ancestor by a large rock.
"Oh, interesting!"
Kohler, who was on the roof in the distance, narrowed his eyes upon seeing this. He then sat down and continued to observe the courtyard.
Facing Ye Feng, whose true energy had surged and who was attacking at an accelerated pace, the Blood Ancestor showed no panic. He neither dodged nor evaded, his eyes fixed on Ye Feng with clear disdain and a hint of confusion.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!~"
"Clang clang clang!~ Clang~"
Ye Feng gripped his Tang blade tightly and, with extreme speed and various tricky angles, he stabbed, chopped, and slashed at the Blood Ancestor.
The light of his true energy continuously flashed, and the crisp sound of metal impacts rang out incessantly. Ye Feng became a blur, hacking at the Blood Ancestor countless times...
But each time, his attacks were blocked by the Blood Ancestor's spatial barrier. The large rock beside the Blood Ancestor had long since been shattered by the impact of Ye Feng's true energy!
"This guy... he really made himself a super-hard turtle shell with spatial power!"
Ye Feng muttered to himself. The next second, his eyes sharpened, and he leaned forward slightly, his Tang blade once again slashing towards the Blood Ancestor's neck.
The Blood Ancestor, who had been calmly composed, suddenly changed his expression when Ye Feng's Tang blade struck the spatial barrier near his neck.
This was because he sensed an extremely dangerous aura!
"What?"
The Blood Ancestor looked astonished.
After Ye Feng's Tang blade struck the spatial barrier, the true energy on the blade had actually penetrated the barrier and headed straight for his neck.
"Whoosh! Slice!~"
A sharp sound of flesh being cut instantly rang out.
"How... how is this possible?"
The Blood Ancestor, who had retreated several meters, clutched his bloody ear, which was throbbing with intense pain, his eyes filled with shock.
Because he was actually injured... He was injured without the spatial barrier being broken...
Amidst his shock, a trace of fear began to rise in the Blood Ancestor's heart.
If he hadn't dodged sharply just now, the injury would have been far more severe than just his ear...
