Chapter 87: Fury
Yun Ye was already eighteen years old, and his strength had increased by more than ten or twenty times compared to the past.
However, in front of the Spirit Law chains, his power still felt weak. After exhausting most of his strength, he managed to break only one percent of the chains.
Yun Ye’s body burned with Nether Fire, blocking the chains’ interference.
Then, he swallowed the Spiritual Herb in his hand directly.
"Boom!"
The potency of the herb spread throughout his body, and his life energy instantly revived to its peak, rapidly increasing thereafter.
Restrictions?
To Yun Ye, they meant nothing!
He had plenty of ways to evade detection!
Moreover, his primary goal now was to increase the likelihood of eliminating Tong Yuan; hesitating was not an option for him!
"I need more Spiritual Herbs!"
Yun Ye began rampaging around Zhu Village.
As long as the Spiritual Herbs could restore life energy, Yun Ye accepted them all, swallowing them down without hesitation.
Then, he furiously tore apart the Spirit Law chains.
In the blink of an eye, night fell.
The brightness of the entire Secret Realm dimmed.
Yun Ye walked in the darkness, the chains clinking; however, compared to during the day, their sound had weakened significantly.
Throughout the day, Yun Ye had been immersed in dismantling the Spirit Law and had already erased one-third of it, and he had a basic understanding of its range of effects.
He originally planned to continue, but after nightfall, the monsters’ strength surged, surpassing what he could easily handle.
Yun Ye did not want to waste his power on those beasts, so he decided to return to Zhu Village first.
Zhu Village was protected by the Secret Realm, ensuring no monsters could approach, making it the perfect place to deal with the Spirit Law chains.
Yun Ye hadn’t traveled far, so he returned quickly.
But as he got closer, Yun Ye sensed something was wrong.
"What is this… the smell of blood?"
Yun Ye’s pupils narrowed, and he looked toward the village in shock.
The smell of blood was incredibly intense!
What had happened?
Yun Ye’s figure flashed as he quickened his pace, racing up the small mountain to look at Zhu Village.
Then, like a bolt from the blue, he froze in place.
The harmonious scene of Zhu Village had completely vanished.
The ground was littered with corpses.
Blood flowed like a river!
The villagers who had warmly welcomed Yun Ye during the day had turned into lifeless bodies, their faces filled with despair.
With the keen eyesight of a Spiritual Law master, Yun Ye saw everything clearly; every detail was apparent!
How they died, what injuries they suffered, their expressions—Yun Ye memorized every single one of them deeply.
"Heh, the Black Armored Army…"
An indescribable emotion surged within Yun Ye, bloodshot veins spreading across his eyes, quickly covered by a crimson hue.
The Eye of Invisible Light!
The entire Zhu Village was penetrated, revealing all spiritual essences.
His gaze went through the buildings, and sure enough, inside one wooden house, a man in black armor was doing something.
Yun Ye focused his vision to see his actions, and to his horror, he saw bone after bone glowing with spiritual light!
These were the spirit bones that the black-armored man had dug out from the villagers, without distinction of age or gender, leaving no one behind!
In his spiritual vision, the black-armored man pointed his right hand at the bones, transferring the spiritual light within them to his palm, arm, and other parts of his body.
The villagers of Zhu Village were being entirely "devoured," turning into nourishment for the black-armored man!
Blood surged to Yun Ye’s head!
The rage that surged within him made Yun Ye feel like he might shatter his teeth as he clenched his jaw, speaking each word slowly: “I really underestimated you all. You even dare to kill the ordinary people in the Secret Realm… you’re asking for death!”
“Celestial Event!”
Yun Ye nearly roared. In the past, he had no power, and even if he resisted, it would have been easily crushed.
But now, what were ordinary Black Armored Spiritual Law masters to him?
In his eyes, there was no difference between the black armor and ordinary people; both were "weaklings" that he could easily crush!
The black-armored spiritual masters slaughtering the weak made it clear that he could also mercilessly hunt down the Black Armored Spiritual Law!
"Szzzz!"
A series of black cracks erupted from Yun Ye’s surface, ultimately converging before him to form a dark void.
The revenge arsenal named Celestial Event appeared; it was a metal rod resembling an iron staff, measuring a solid 1.5 meters, with intricate patterns engraved on it that formed extremely complex designs.
Yun Ye waved his hand, guiding Celestial Event to float and point toward Zhu Village, the complex patterns beginning to glow bit by bit.
Spirit energy converged and infused into the metal rod at that moment, releasing an aura powerful enough to make even Captain-level warriors tremble.
But just for a moment, Yun Ye calmed down.
Did he really need to use Celestial Event to kill such trash?
There was no need to rush!
Yun Ye wanted to know the black armor’s motivation for slaughtering the village—was it merely for the spiritual roots and essence?
Celestial Event vanished again, disappearing into the black hole created by the Nether Fire.
"Killing intent? Who?"
The Black Armored Spiritual Law from Zhu Village had already noticed Yun Ye. Startled by the aura of Celestial Event for a moment, the man jumped out of the house and looked in Yun Ye’s direction.
“Someone from the Black Armored Army?”
The man furrowed his brow as he caught sight of Yun Ye’s black armor.
Why did this person harbor murderous intent toward him? And why was it so strong, completely unmasked?
Yun Ye leaped down from the mountain, landing in Zhu Village. He coldly fixed his gaze on the black-armored man, and upon seeing his face, his killing intent intensified.
He recognized that face.
This was one of the black-armored men who had once slaughtered Xiaoye Village!
Since he was Tong Yuan’s subordinate, it was no surprise for him to carry out a massacre of an entire village!
Despite Tong Yuan’s seemingly polite demeanor and desire to win Yun Ye over, in his past life as a commoner, Tong Yuan had referred to Yun Ye as a lowly person, showing no regard for him as a human being.
The politeness was only due to Yun Ye’s value as a potential tool.
Tong Yuan’s subordinates, who followed him in slaughtering, surely cared little for the lives of ordinary people.
And once they got used to killing, even without profit, they would still unleash their brutality. The world was full of massacre tragedies.
Moreover, this was a world of cultivation, where even ordinary people could be captured for their spirit bones to refine souls!
Yun Ye emerged from the dust, tasting the blood in the air, and spoke expressionlessly: “Tell me… why did you kill them?”
The black-armored man frowned as he recognized Yun Ye.
He stared at Yun Ye’s fiery red eyes for a long time, then glanced at the surrounding corpses, sneering: “What’s wrong? As a commoner, do you sympathize with these beings? They might not even qualify as living humans in the Secret Realm!”
“Sometimes, don’t respond to a question with another question… what do you think?”
In an instant,
The scene in front of the black-armored man changed.
The distance of several dozen meters seemed nonexistent, as Yun Ye had suddenly appeared before him, even pressing his arm down, a tearing sensation spreading from his shoulder…
The black-armored man’s face changed drastically as he tried to break free.
But in the next second,
“Ahhhhh!”
The black-armored man screamed in agony, constantly retreating and covering his left arm with his right hand, blood pouring out.
He looked at Yun Ye in terror, almost unable to believe what was happening: “How is this possible? Why can you attack me? What about the contract sealing?”
