Although the middle-aged swordsman had completely lost his mind, there was only an inextinguishable obsession in his heart, and that was the obsession with the Ghost Yuan Tree. Now that he saw the Ghost Yuan Tree being taken away by Ye Xiwen, he suddenly went crazy.
"Bang!"
The Illusory Sky Divine Python was blasted away by the berserk middle-aged swordsman. It shrieked miserably as cracks appeared on its body. Its body was extremely tough and ordinary attacks could not injure it. One could well imagine how terrifying this berserk middle-aged swordsman was.
"I can't hold on any longer!"
The huge body of the Illusory Sky Python was flung away in the air, and a blood light enveloped it, taking it directly into the Tianyuan Mirror.
The middle-aged swordsman was completely crazy, and he rushed toward Ye Xiwen.
However, Ye Xiwen's speed was not slow. The Wings of Wind and Thunder behind him spread out instantly, like clouds in the sky, and in a flash, he had already flown tens of thousands of miles away.
The middle-aged swordsman was chasing closely behind him, and he did not look like he was going to give up. He directly caught up with Ye Xiwen, and sword light shot out. The void within a thousand miles was shaking violently, as if it was boiling water.
The middle-aged swordsman was chasing closely behind Ye Xiwen, but Ye Xiwen's speed was even faster. His Wings of Wind and Thunder were fully unleashed. Only a master who had entered the King-Ranked Realm could possibly catch up with him.
Slowly, the gap between the two sides gradually widened.
After chasing for three days and three nights, Ye Xiwen finally completely shook off the crazy middle-aged swordsman.
At this time, Ye Xiwen's spiritual power in his body had been almost depleted. If it were not for the Phoenix Regeneration Technique that constantly generated spiritual power, he would have been exhausted. After all, the spiritual power consumption was much higher than flying at full speed.
Ye Xiwen hid behind a spatial fault, and arranged a magic array to converge all of his aura. The consumption of his magic power was very serious, but it wasn't a big deal. He had already recovered more than half of his magic power in a short period of time.
This time, he wanted to successfully rush to the peak of the Sage Realm Middle Stage in one go. At that time, his cultivation would leap, and he would not be afraid of anyone unless he met a master in the King-Ranked Realm.
Originally, it would have taken him a long time to reach this step, unless he chose to swallow the Golden-Back Dragon Carp King, which had not been completed yet. Otherwise, he would have to slowly cultivate in seclusion.
According to his original plan, it would have taken him at least a hundred years to complete this step. But now, it seemed that he could completely skip this hundred years.
For others, the biggest problem of swallowing the Ghost Origin Fruit was how to resist the Baleful Qi within it. Just refining the Baleful Qi within it would take at least a few decades or even a century before it could be done.
This wasn't a problem for Ye Xiwen. After all, he had the 'Enlightening Mind Ancient Tree' to stabilize his mind. So, he didn't need to worry about anything.
In this chaotic space, Ye Xiwen swallowed the Ghost Origin Fruit, and in an instant, an inexhaustible amount of Essence Qi poured into his body, transforming into monstrous magical power, and dispersed into his limbs and bones.
The Ghost Origin Tree was famous, but it could only condense 30 Ghost Origin Fruits at most. It could not condense more, and each Ghost Origin Fruit was very precious.
Of course, the Ghost Yuan Fruit was different every time, because the level of the Ghost Yuan Fruit was different from the one he killed.
The higher the level of the opponent he killed, the more obvious the effect of the Ghost Yuan Fruit.
He had just swallowed the Ghost Origin Fruit and instantly felt that his spiritual power was recovering at an astonishing speed. In fact, he had almost recovered to the peak in an instant. Moreover, his martial power was actually rising at an astonishing speed.
This feeling was ten times, a hundred times faster than when he cultivated in seclusion, and it was still rising at a crazy rate.
Since he was not going to break through to the next level, Ye Xiwen did not encounter any barriers at all. He just kept absorbing the energy in the Ghost Yuan Fruit.
Time passed day by day, and Ye Xiwen swallowed the Ghost Yuan Fruit one by one.
After a full ten days, Ye Xiwen pinched a seal with both hands, and the waves of energy surrounding his body instantly calmed down.
For a full ten days, he swallowed a Ghost Yuan Fruit every day, and finally pushed his cultivation to the peak of the middle stage of the Sage Plane.
But it was not so easy to go further. It was just that it was much easier to take this step and enter the late stage of the Sage Plane. But at the same time, his power was stuck at the peak of the Sage Plane, and he could be said to be the strongest below the Titled King Plane.
If it was just a step up in the level, and he could not go further in his power, it would be meaningless.
Every increase in the level was a rare experience, and he did not want to waste it.
He even had an ambition. If he could increase his power to the Undying King Plane in one go, it would be a shocking scene.
But even so, it was not something that Ye Xiwen could improve in a short time. He could only put this idea aside for now. He would have time to test it out after all these things were over.
The Titled King Plane was a level, and it was also a watershed. Once one crossed the Titled King Plane, one would be a top-notch figure in the world, and their words carried weight in all the realms.
As long as the Emperor King didn't appear, no one in the King-Ranked Realm would be able to control them. They were practically invincible. Once he could break through this limit, he would become the eighth major figure in the Hidden Valley. He would no longer be an insignificant figure.
But he knew that this path was undoubtedly much more difficult than breaking through from the peak of the Sage Plane to the Titled King Plane. But even so, it was faster than cultivating to the peak of the Sage Plane and then trying to break through to the Titled King Plane, and it was much easier.
So, Ye Xiwen chose this path in the end.
"Ten days have passed. The red-robed old freak should have arrived by now. If I want to break through to the King-Ranked Realm in one go, I will not be able to do it with ordinary methods. I can only make use of the power of this King-Ranked Elixir. I have to get my hands on this King-Ranked Elixir!" Ye Xiwen narrowed his eyes and was extremely determined. If it were not for the Titled King Pill, he would never have chosen this path that seemed to have no chance of success.
It was simply crazy.
This was his only chance.
Swoosh!
The Wings of Wind and Thunder spread out behind him, and he instantly turned into a ball of wind and thunder and flew out.
He had only flown less than a hundred thousand miles when he saw shattered space everywhere, and there were people fighting fiercely.
He took a closer look and found that they were all acquaintances. On one side was the middle-aged swordsman who had been chasing Ye Xiwen relentlessly.
On the other side was Xue Lian and the others. They were really old acquaintances.
Xue Lian was here to track the blood curse in Ye Xiwen's body, and the middle-aged swordsman was also searching bit by bit, extremely persistent.
However, it was a pity that neither side could find Ye Xiwen, and they collided on the spot. Xue Lian and the others did not want to fight with the middle-aged swordsman, but the middle-aged swordsman did not think so much. He was already crazy and simply treated Xue Lian and the others as his opponents and attacked.
Although Xue Lian and the others had the advantage in numbers, their cultivation was not much different from that of the Red-robed Old Monster, but they were only at the peak of the Sage Realm. On the other hand, the middle-aged swordsman was comparable to those monstrous geniuses. Although he had lost his mind and could not exert his combat strength to the extreme, he alone was enough to make Xue Lian and the others suffer greatly and constantly retreat.
It was just one man and one sword, but they had the power to shatter the world, which amazed the onlookers.
"Damn it, how did we meet him? Isn't that the Extreme Path Sword Saint from more than five hundred thousand years ago?" The Blood Celestial Horse could not help but roar.
So many of them had joined forces, but they were still defeated by the middle-aged swordsman. If word of this got out, they would lose all face.
But there was nothing they could do. At this moment, they were actually a little glad. If this Extreme Path Sword Saint was still at his peak hundreds of thousands of years ago, and had not even lost his mind, they would have been killed by now. The difference between an ordinary peak of the Sage Realm and an existence of that level was like heaven and earth.
Even when these people faced King-Ranked martial artists, they were not completely defenseless. They were truly perverted.
"Damn beast, I can't believe we met this guy. Wasn't it rumored that he had fallen in the Gloomy Sky Ghost Palace hundreds of thousands of years ago? Why did he suddenly appear at this time?" Xue Lian could not help but be extremely angry. He was about to catch up with Ye Xiwen, and according to his senses, they were only a few hundred thousand miles away. Who would have thought that they would encounter such a madman, who treated them as enemies and attacked them crazily?
Now, the search for Ye Xiwen and the Ghost Yuan Tree was completely ruined. There was no need to even think about it.
They did not know that the Ghost Yuan Tree had been taken away by Ye Xiwen, and now the place where the Ghost Yuan Tree had been was far from where they were. If they knew, they would probably die of anger.
Compared to the anger and helplessness of Xue Lian and the others, the middle-aged Swordsman's situation was much simpler. He just kept muttering 'kill, kill, kill, kill', like a mindless killing machine. In his mind, it seemed that killing was the only option.
His eyes were bloodshot, and the world he saw was also scarlet.
"This is a little interesting!" Ye Xiwen slightly sneered. If he had encountered these two groups of people in the past, then perhaps it would have been a big problem. But now, he could calmly sit on the sidelines and watch the fight between the two sides.
Even if one of them won, it did not matter to him. He also wanted to see how strong he had become after his skills improved.
