Chapter 1736 - 1737: He Can't Escape
In the next second, Yang Fei grabbed the arm of the Earth Treasury Fallen One, preventing him from tossing him away.
The face of the Earth Treasury Fallen One was filled with a sinister smile.
He let out a thunderous roar, unleashing his power like a storm.
Yang Fei's bones were rattled by the overwhelming strength, feeling as if they could shatter at any moment.
Yang Fei let out a long roar, swiftly invoking the Snake Devouring Force, instantly nullifying most of the Earth Treasury Fallen One's power.
However, Yang Fei couldn't withstand the lingering power of the Earth Treasury Fallen One, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Yang Fei was utterly shocked, as typically, a Resentful Spirit's power is only one percent, or even one-thousandth, of a living martial artist's strength.
This Earth Treasury Fallen One is so formidable; one can't imagine how terrifying his power must have been when alive!
The Yan Ru Scripture records that generally, when martial artists reach a certain level, they develop their minds—strengthening their divine thoughts and their will like iron.
Even if a martial artist's body decays, their divine thoughts can persist in the form of energy bodies, and that's how undead warriors come to be.
Of course, if a martial artist's Martial Arts Realm reaches the likes of God of Slaughter Bai Qi, they can become a nearly immortal Will of the World within a Small World.
This isn't mere legend; even ordinary people, if their will and obsession reach a certain level, can develop overwhelmingly powerful divine thoughts.
Even after death, their divine thoughts will not disperse immediately.
Especially those who die with hatred and suffer injustice; their resentful thoughts become extraordinarily powerful, comparable to the divine thoughts of super warriors—this is the origin of Resentful Spirits.
Yet, the power of Resentful Spirits is minimal and cannot affect the living.
Even if an undead warrior mobilizes power, it's limited, greatly reduced compared to when they were alive.
Generally speaking, an undead warrior displaying one percent or even one-thousandth of their power is already quite remarkable.
With Yang Fei's cultivation of the Nine Extremes, the Power of Dragon and Elephant is incredibly immense.
He himself is a True Martial Earth Grade expert, but even with Yang Fei's power, he struggles against the Earth Treasury Fallen One.
If he were alive, what kind of formidable expert would he be!
The face of the Earth Treasury Fallen One showed delight, as the energy within him surged towards Yang Fei like a stormy sea.
At this moment, there was no chance for trickery, so Yang Fei invoked Snake Devouring, attempting to absorb the Earth Treasury Fallen One's power.
However, in this second clash, Yang Fei's Snake Devouring Force had already reached its limit.
He barely absorbed half the power when a sharp pain struck his chest, and gold stars danced before his eyes.
It felt like being struck by a massive iron hammer; his vision went black, and he could no longer suppress a mouthful of blood from spraying.
The Earth Treasury Fallen One lifted Yang Fei into the air, and Yang Fei's blood sprayed directly onto his face.
"Ah..."
The Earth Treasury Fallen One let out a miserable scream, as Yang Fei's blood seemed to possess strong corrosive properties.
The blood and flesh on his face were instantly corroded, exposing white bones and distorting his features beyond recognition, looking terrifyingly dreadful.
Yang Fei was startled, and with a swift motion, broke free from the Earth Treasury Fallen One's grasp.
He retreated backward, while the Earth Treasury Fallen One covered his face with his hands, seemingly in great agony.
He rolled on the ground, his screams echoing as if shaking the heavens and earth.
A blinding golden light rapidly spread across the Earth Treasury Fallen One.
Wherever the golden light reached, the flesh of the Earth Treasury Fallen One peeled away at a visible pace, revealing ghastly white bones.
In an instant, the Earth Treasury Fallen One became a skeleton and collapsed into the ground.
Yang Fei, extremely startled, walked forward and gently touched the Earth Treasury Fallen One's skeleton, only for it to crumble into dust.
Yang Fei pondered: "Could it be due to the Nine-Rank Lotus?"
With this thought, Yang Fei activated his True Yuan Energy, concentrating it into his palm.
A visible golden light glimmered in the palm of his hand.
The surrounding Heaven and Earth Vital Energy swiftly gathered toward Yang Fei's palm, gradually forming a whirlwind-like True Martial Qi Force.
Roar!
Yang Fei let out a furious roar, and the golden whirlwind True Martial Qi Force swept outward.
Boom!
Countless undead and skeleton warriors were caught in the golden vortex, suddenly freezing in place, their bodies halted, maintaining their original postures.
In the next second, these undead warriors and skeletons collapsed into fine sand, disintegrating helplessly.
Yang Fei was overjoyed, as this palm strike eradicated over a hundred undead warriors.
The golden light in his palm had a damage effect on the undead that exceeded imagination.
After Yang Fei vanquished the Earth Treasury Fallen One, the innumerable undead skeletons lost their commander, and their formation began to scatter.
Xue Mingtai's group felt somewhat relieved, yet the undead warriors' thirst for flesh drove their relentless attacks on Xue Mingtai and his companions.
Thousands upon thousands of undead warriors frenziedly surrounded the group, making it extremely difficult to manage.
An Zichen slaughtered several dozen undead skeletons consecutively before glancing towards Yang Fei's direction out of concern.
At this sight, An Zichen was instantly dumbfounded.
Less than a thousand meters from An Zichen and his companions, a massive attack arc was forming, spanning more than an acre, and gleaming with golden light.
At the center of the arc, a golden figure swept through the tidal wave of skeleton warriors with dominance.
Everywhere he went, the undead warriors and skeletons crumbled like fragile toys washed by the waves.
An Zichen recognized the golden figure at once as Yang Fei.
The golden light attached to Yang Fei appeared sacred and utterly magnificent.
The golden light was particularly damaging to the undead and skeleton warriors.
Many weaker undead warriors disintegrated and turned to dust upon being touched by the golden rays.
An Zichen watched in astonishment, her movements slowing, nearly being hit by an undead knight's long spear.
Xue Mingtai, standing beside An Zichen, was startled at the sight.
His soft sword moved like a spirit snake, smashing the undead knight and pulling An Zichen behind him.
"Zi Chen, what's wrong?"
An Zichen didn't respond, her eyes fixed on the distance.
"Ming Tai, look!"
Xue Mingtai glanced in the direction An Zichen pointed, and he too was taken aback.
Amid the immense encirclement of countless undead and skeleton warriors, Yang Fei's True Martial Qi Force had formed a golden dragon attacking with fierce momentum.
Everywhere he went, countless undead and skeletons disintegrated into dust.
Xue Mingtai was deeply shocked. Having fought against undead skeletons for so long, he understood the principle of ants biting elephants.
The undead skeletons' attacks weren't fatal, but their numbers were simply overwhelming.
After holding out for so long, even for a top-notch expert like Xue Mingtai, the Essence Qi became hard to sustain.
However, Yang Fei's attack was truly terrifying.
With a single palm strike, the golden True Martial Qi Force annihilated all the undead skeletons within dozens of feet, reducing them to dust.
"Let's charge!"
Xue Mingtai shouted, leading the group towards Yang Fei.
Everyone witnessed Yang Fei's divine might, and their spirits lifted.
Facing the bombardment of countless undead, everyone had been despaired.
But now, they saw a glimmer of hope.
At this moment, an even more astounding scene unfolded.
