Chapter 762: Chapter 0680: Soul State


"Old Palace Master?"


The Five Elders saw Xing Mozi appear, and their hearts were overwhelmed with emotions that words could not express. They never imagined that Xing Mozi, who had supposedly died in battle decades ago, was not truly dead.


Xing Mozi was, to them, the true faith. The scenes of him leading them to slay enemies across the world all rushed to their minds, making each of them surge with uncontrollable excitement.


Xing Mozi nodded slightly to them and then turned his gaze to Ye Qingfeng, who stood indifferently ahead, a look of surprise in his eyes.


"This young friend, this old man has roamed the Outer Sect for a hundred years, and I have never seen anyone as outstanding as you. Truly, you have opened my eyes!"


He turned to look at the severely injured and unconscious Fang Li, his expression somewhat grim, but this quickly faded as he looked back at Ye Qingfeng.


"Today, my Demon Punishment Palace has been defeated by you. We will concede defeat and withdraw from Qianling Mountain, never to infringe upon the Thunderbolt and Lianhua Sects again. What do you think?"


As soon as Xing Mozi said this, everyone was taken aback.


The Xing Mozi who once swept across the Outer Sect with invincibility was actually negotiating with someone?


Everyone looked at Ye Qingfeng, smiling bitterly.


To make Xing Mozi willingly concede defeat, the Invincible War God Ye Jiujie is truly a hero among heroes.


Dao Xuzi, Qiao Lianxiang, and others sighed inwardly. Now that Xing Mozi showed up intending to lead the Demon Punishment Palace to retreat, it was clear they could not exterminate the other members of the Demon Punishment Palace.


Though regretful, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Today the two sects were on the brink of defeat, but due to Ye Qingfeng’s appearance, the situation was reversed. Having this outcome, they felt somewhat reassured.


Everyone watched Ye Qingfeng, waiting for just one word from him to end this battle.


Ye Qingfeng’s gaze fell on Xing Mozi, his expression unchanged.


He cracked his neck, producing a crisp sound from his joints, and in the next instant, his words made everyone’s expressions change drastically.


"I said that except for those from the Thunderbolt and Lianhua Sects, no one else would be left alive today!"


"When Ye Jiujie speaks, I always fulfill my words. You think you, a mere Soul Body, can save someone in front of me?"


Ye Qingfeng gently shook his finger, grinning.


"You’re not qualified!"


As Ye Qingfeng’s words hung in the air, everyone froze, then looked astonished.


Everyone thought Ye Qingfeng would agree to Xing Mozi’s proposal. Who would have thought that he would outright refuse and even say Xing Mozi wasn’t qualified?


Bo Yuanzi and others were dumbfounded. Xing Mozi had reached the Half-step War Emperor stage decades ago. Since he didn’t perish in that great battle, his strength must have become even greater over these decades, probably surpassing Fang Li. Facing such a master, Ye Qingfeng showed no intention of backing down?


In the War Emperor Realm, the gap between each stage is like a chasm. For an Intermediate War Emperor, defeating ten Basic-level War Emperors is an easy task. In their view, although Ye Qingfeng could defeat Fang Li, his strength was probably only that of a Basic-level War Emperor, much stronger than Fang Li.


Nevertheless, when facing an Intermediate War Emperor, a Basic-level War Emperor is clearly outmatched.


Xing Mozi’s eyes slightly narrowed, and his smile faded, his tone becoming somber.


"You know I’m a Soul Body, yet you still dare to stop me?"


Dao Xuzi and the others were momentarily stunned when they heard this.


"Soul Body?"


They quickly realized this fact, shock evident on their faces.


Upon seeing Xing Mozi’s somewhat ethereal silhouette, they immediately understood.


"Xing Mozi is in Soul Body form right now. That’s how it is!"


They finally realized why they had witnessed Xing Mozi being collectively slain by three old Sect Masters, yet he still existed in the world.


"It was rumored that Xing Mozi had obtained a Supreme Secret Method that could separate his soul from his body. Even if his physical body was destroyed, he could still survive as a soul. And it’s true?"


This fantastic situation left Dao Xuzi and the others greatly astonished, having never seen anything like it before.


Ye Qingfeng, hearing Xing Mozi’s question, let out a contemptuous laugh.


"Even if you had a body, you’re still no match for me, let alone in your half-baked soul state!"


He clenched his fist, the corner of his mouth curling into a wicked smile.


"Had you not shown up and kept hiding in that broken blade, I might not have discovered you!"


"But now that you’ve revealed yourself, do you think you can still have your Demon Punishment Palace retreat unscathed? Is that possible?"


Ye Qingfeng pointed his finger at Xing Mozi, grinning.


"Today, no one from the Demon Punishment Palace will escape, including you!"


Xing Mozi’s face darkened slightly, a cold smile playing at his lips.


"Youth, having talent is good, but don’t be too blindly arrogant!" he said coldly. "Our Demon Punishment Palace conceded voluntarily, don’t think it’s because I’m afraid of you!"


"When I, Xing Mozi, roamed the Outer Sect, you didn’t even know where you were!"


Xing Mozi had killed countless masters. Even when the old Sect Masters of the Three Great Sects joined forces and fought desperately to take him down, he still managed to survive in soul form. How could he be ordinary?


"If you had encountered me back then, you’d have no chance to speak now!"


Ye Qingfeng remained unfazed, clenching his fist.


"Whoosh!"


He wasted no more words and suddenly dashed forward.


Xing Mozi’s gaze sharpened, turning into an afterimage to meet him.


His power was as black as ink, enveloping the surroundings, as eight formidable streams of Qi Force merged into one, aiming at Ye Qingfeng.


"Hmph!"


Ye Qingfeng let out a cold snort, pulling back his right fist, then fiercely swung it out.


"Boom!"


The Qi Force met in mid-air, and Ye Qingfeng clashed with the eight streams of power, his fist flashing with golden light.


Throughout, his left hand remained in his pocket, never taken out.


"You think you, a mere Soul Body, can stop me?"


Ye Qingfeng chuckled coldly, suddenly exerting force, and the eight streams of dark Spiritual Power in front of him were instantly dispersed by his punch.


Xing Mozi’s face changed slightly as Ye Qingfeng’s Fist Power broke through the blockade and struck his chest.


"Whoosh!"


The Fist Power pierced through, yet Xing Mozi remained motionless, a sinister smile curling at his lips.


Ye Qingfeng’s Fist Power had passed right through his body, shattering a distant mountain, but Xing Mozi himself suffered no harm.


"This..."


The crowd below was completely shocked, feeling that everything unfolding before their eyes was utterly absurd.


Xing Mozi’s attack had been broken by Ye Qingfeng’s punch. The Fist Power penetrated through Xing Mozi, yet he wasn’t harmed, as if he had dodged the punch altogether.


"Ha ha ha!"


Xing Mozi laughed aloud, "Young man, I am in a soul state. I can harm you, but you cannot hit me!"


Having exchanged blows with Ye Qingfeng, he naturally understood Ye Qingfeng’s formidable strength. Although he knew he might not match up, he remained unfearful.


The soul is indeed an extremely mysterious state, even more peculiar than those Elemental Superpower Users who can achieve Elementalization.
