Chapter 755: The Gate Opens

Although Ye Feng’s cultivation level had risen rapidly over time, he had also fought his way to his current height through countless battles. It could be said that he had few rivals.
Years of combat had endowed his body with instinctive reaction skills for fighting. Even with his eyes closed, his body could automatically respond to threats, avoid danger, and counterattack—often more effectively than when he kept his eyes open. Since these were purely physical reactions that didn’t require brain processing, they allowed Ye Feng to reach extreme speeds.
Having suffered a setback in one strike, Avery became slightly more cautious. He quietly moved behind Ye Feng, taking even lighter steps and reducing the amplitude of his dagger swings. With a single step, he attacked Ye Feng’s neck from a bizarre angle.
Once behind Ye Feng and about to thrust his dagger, Ye Feng stepped aside in a quick maneuver. Dozens of sword beams rushed at Avery from various strange angles. Each beam carried the power of a Level 177 Fusion Divine Technique, tearing tiny cracks even in this high-dimensional space.
It should be noted that Ye Feng was only a Level 6 warrior, yet he could unleash attacks capable of killing Level 10 warriors. This terrified Avery, who immediately chose to retreat at full speed. Due to his innate weaknesses, his defense was even inferior to that of an ordinary Level 9 warrior. If struck by Ye Feng’s attacks—even just once—he would likely be devastated, possibly even killed.
Yet his rapid retreat didn’t yield the expected result. Seeing the changes in those sword beams, his pupils shrank sharply. The beams, which had initially resembled long swords, had softened.
“Damn it, they’re soft swords!” The moment this thought crossed his mind, he felt a pulling force on his left foot.
A sword beam had already wrapped around his left leg, causing him to freeze instantly. More beams followed and wrapped around him.
When his hands were locked and his feet trapped, unable to escape, he knew he was completely defeated—by a Level 6 warrior.

Several fierce beams of light flashed, aiming straight at Avery’s forehead, where his Sea of Consciousness lay. If those sword-like beams carrying soul-destruction attacks pierced through, Avery would surely have his soul shattered and perish completely. From the very beginning, Ye Feng had intended to kill Avery, as this guy possessed a high level of mastery over his divine powers and even had special hidden abilities, posing a huge threat to the human faction. It was likely that even those with divine powers below level 150 could easily be assassinated by him. That was why Ye Feng didn’t plan to spare him.

But just as those fierce beams were about to penetrate Avery’s forehead, a dark glow suddenly appeared in front of him, effortlessly blocking Ye Feng’s attacks.

Ye Feng glanced at the foreign faction and focused his gaze on their leader. He narrowed his eyes slightly and moved his fingers again. This time, hundreds of fierce beams launched from different angles, still targeting Avery. Clearly, he wasn’t willing to let this guy go so easily.

“Hmph!” With a cold snort, Ye Feng’s hundreds of attacks exploded simultaneously before they could reach Avery, as if they had never existed at all.

Ye Feng frowned slightly. The leader of the opposing faction was staring at him coldly, his eyes brimming with murderous intent.

“This contest is ours.” At that moment, Tiandao suddenly appeared in front of Ye Feng. With a wave of his long sleeves, he shielded Ye Feng behind him and looked at the leader of the opposing faction. “Shi Hun, does our previous bet still stand?”

“Hahaha… Since Tiandao says so, of course I won’t back out,” said the leader named Shi Hun, glancing at Ye Feng behind Tiandao and laughing loudly. “You’ve won. You may open this gate.”

Only then did Ye Feng retreat back to his faction, while Tiandao walked alone to the gate, rapidly forming complex hand seals.

His hands moved so fast that even Ye Feng could only see afterimages, unable to clearly see his movements or determine how many seals he had formed.

After a long while, all the seals were finally completed, and the golden gate began to vibrate intensely.

The surrounding space hummed, and the vibrations even caused rumbles in the space itself, making Ye Feng marvel at the power of this gate. He also wondered what lay beyond it. If just a gate possessed such power, whatever was behind it must surely be extraordinary.

“Boom…”

Amidst a loud roar, the gate finally began to open slowly.

Inside the gate, as seen from the outside, it was a vast expanse of whiteness, making it impossible to see what was inside. At that moment, Shi Hun suddenly appeared in front of Ye Feng, but was stopped by Bu Sou. “Don’t be nervous,” Shi Hun said coldly after glancing at Bu Sou. “I just have something to say to this kid.” He then turned to look at Ye Feng. “What’s behind this gate isn’t a safe place. If you die in there, I’ll be very disappointed… I really hope… the day when I can destroy you with my own hands will come soon…” Ye Feng clenched his fists. Even though Bu Sou was blocking the way ahead, the pressure emanating from Shi Hun still made him extremely uneasy. “Don’t worry. I won’t attack you now. When your strength reaches the level of a tenth-tier warrior, I’ll come for you…” Before Shi Hun could finish speaking, he disappeared. Ye Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief. Only after he left did Ye Feng realize that his back was drenched in sweat. “Are you okay?” Bu Sou’s expression also turned slightly worried. “Mm,” Ye Feng nodded. “That Shi Hun seems to have gotten stronger since we last met…” Although Bu Sou didn’t want to admit it, it was an undeniable fact that Shi Hun had grown stronger. After returning to their camp, Shi Hun waved his hand behind him and ignored Tian Dao, who was standing at the gate. He led the many warriors from the outside world into the gate first. Tian Dao frowned. Only after everyone had entered did he convey a message to them. “After each person enters, they will be randomly transported to different locations. As for the detailed rules of the game, someone will explain them to you once you’re inside. All you need to do is protect yourselves and try to survive these ten days.” After explaining all this, Tian Dao stepped inside first. Ye Feng and the others followed in a rush behind the group…
