Chapter 1229: Beast Ambush

Unexpectedly, after the Magic Vine learned there were over thirty Tianzun-level elites inside, it began to stir restlessly.

"Looks like it's almost ready to be dealt with!"

Thinking of this, Ye Liuyun tossed the Magic Vine straight outside the city wall, letting it find its own way in.

"It must be stealthy, ambush those Foreign Tribe and Demon Cultivator of Tianzun Realm!" Before releasing it, Ye Liuyun reminded it to act quietly.

This time the Magic Vine seed did not launch a grand, flamboyant attack as before.

Presumably it also considered the many Tianzun-level strong opponents to deal with, so after taking root it remained still.

"Huh!"

Ye Liuyun let out a breath.

"This guy worries me too much and doesn't even reply!"

Then, Ye Liuyun immediately issued orders to his Demon Cultivator army.

Once the Magic Vine begins its assault, the Demon Cultivator army will station themselves outside the four city gates, attacking from outside inward, focusing on interception to ensure not a single Corpse Demon escapes.

This time the Magic Vine moved slowly, its vines sprouting silently. Only after it had already started attacking did chaos erupt inside the city.

Ye Liuyun himself immediately deployed the Demon Cultivator army, Evil Dragon, three hundred Stone Persons, and three thousand Metal Puppets.

The Evil Dragon was tasked with controlling the skies to prevent the Foreign Tribe from escaping. It, together with its accompanying ferocious beasts, Stone Persons, and Metal Puppets, charged straight into the city.

After emerging, the Demon Cultivator army split into four squads, rushing toward the four city gates.

Upon reaching the gates, they did not launch an attack; instead they formed formations, readying Warships and other equipment, waiting for Corpse Demons to break out.

At the same time, Ye Liuyun also alerted the Sealing Demon Tablet.

Such a situation is also suitable for the Sealing Demon Tablet to wreak havoc everywhere. After it absorbs power, it becomes even stronger.

When the Sealing Demon Tablet emerged, it expanded while pressing toward the city interior at a strange speed.

It worries that the Magic Vine will absorb all the energy, and if it arrives late it will miss its chance.

Both the Sealing Demon Tablet and the Magic Vine are targeting Tianzun Realm strongers.

The Magic Vine attacks all Tianzun elites simultaneously, while the Sealing Demon Tablet focuses on Demon Cultivators that the Magic Vine cannot handle at the moment.

However, it can only suppress two or three at a time, far less efficient than the Magic Vine.

The Foreign Tribe and Corpse Demons inside the city were instantly stunned by these suddenly appearing monsters.

Flying overhead were massive Evil Dragons, continuously spewing fire downward.

The Magic Vines that grew from underground were also terrifying, capable of draining their energy outright.

There were also Stone Persons, Metal Puppets, and ferocious beasts…

They had never experienced such an attack before.

Some lower-level Demon Cultivators, seeing the unfavorable situation, seized the moment before the Magic Vine paid them any attention, leading squads of Demon Cultivators to rush outward.

But as soon as they stuck their heads out, the Demon Cultivator army waiting outside blasted them back with Warships.

The dense firepower made it impossible for them to break out. Groups of Corpse Demons were bombarded until not a scrap remained, leaving no choice.

Without breaking a gap, the people inside the city couldn't escape.

Occasionally a few slipped through, but they were met by the Demon Cultivator army's combined attack, allowing not a single Corpse Demon to escape the encirclement.

Ye Liuyun, accompanied by Feng Wanru and a host of ferocious beasts, under the protection of Stone Persons and Metal Puppets, also scoured the city for Corpse Demons and Demon Cultivators.

Inside the city, bizarre roars kept arising endlessly, creating incessant clamor,

Every battle with the Foreign Tribe and Corpse Demons is like this. This time, with the ferocious beasts' roars and the Demon Cultivators' wails, the chaotic sounds rose and fell even more.

Ye Liuyun now fights, specifically targeting battles of the Earth Sovereign's third tier.

Although a Corpse Demon's Physical Body is very sturdy, its Physical Body is not lacking. Moreover, Ye Liuyun's Buddha Light Power and the Demon Slaying Sword can precisely suppress them.

Feng Wanru's Asura Sword finally showed some power; the Corpse Demons beneath the Earth Sovereign were no match for her. Even the Corpse Demons feared her murderous, death‑sword intent.

The ferocious beasts finally let loose without restraint, killing anyone they saw, fighting with great vigor, and various elemental energies flew chaotically!

Ye Liuyun was the same; once in battle, he no longer needed to hide his full strength from others.

Thus, in combat, he unleashed all his abilities—Spatial Power, Primordial Spirit Secret Technique, Buddha Demon Power, and so on.

"Ha ha, exhilarating!"

Ye Liuyun's clone burst into a hearty laugh.

"Indeed, it's been ages since a battle was this enjoyable!"

Ye Liuyun felt very refreshed inside.

The Magic Vine and the Sealing Demon Tablet were already scrambling to eliminate the Tianzun Realm strongers, then turned to wipe out the Earth Sovereign Realm strongers.

The Sealing Demon Tablet then focused on attacking the Foreign Tribe and Corpse Demons, while the Magic Vine, indifferent to heat or cold, attacked in the same way.

The ground inside the city sprouted Magic Vine vines everywhere.

Foreign Tribe trying to flee through the air were blown back by the massive wings of the Evil Dragons.

More than a dozen massive Evil Dragons formed three layers, like three stacked lids, circling above the city and sealing the sky tightly.

Foreign Tribe, Demon Race, and Demon Cultivators who flew up were knocked down like falling dumplings.

Moreover, these Evil Dragons had practiced Demonic Cultivation, allowing them to absorb some Demon Qi from Corpse Demons; at least they could treat those Corpse Demons as food, filling their stomachs without issue.

Otherwise, given their huge size and appetite, feeding them would be too costly!

Ye Liuyun waited a while; after the Magic Vine had eliminated some of the later‑stage Martial Cultivators of the Earth Sovereign, he retracted the Magic Vine.

Otherwise, there would be nothing left for others to fight. Moreover, once the Magic Vine finishes absorbing Corpse Demons, the dried corpses become worthless. If the Magic Vine takes them all, the Evil Dragons would lack food.

Ye Liuyun wasn't in a hurry to pull back the Sealing Demon Tablet; it pressed down one by one, but couldn't suppress much, and its absorption speed wasn't fast, so Ye Liuyun let it continue.

Moreover, the Sealing Demon Tablet wouldn't heed him; at this point, even if he shouted, he couldn't get a response.

When the Magic Vine withdrew, Ye Liuyun also ordered the Evil Dragons to descend in batches to forage.

The particularly high‑level Corpse Demons he assigned to ferocious beasts such as Xiao Lanbing and Xuanwu to handle.

He then brought Stone and the Metal Puppet, and began sweeping around.

Within Sun Prosperity City, the foreign tribes, demon cultivators, and corpse demons — an army of nearly 100,000 — were all wiped out by Ye Liuyun's strange troop in a surprise attack, leaving not a single survivor.

Afterward, Ye Liuyun had Stone and the Metal Puppet line up outside the city, leaving the interior entirely to the Evil Dragon to clean up the battlefield and have its fill.

The demon cultivator army, divided into four units, also completed its mission, regrouped, and awaited Ye Liuyun's orders.

Ye Liuyun should have held Sun Prosperity City until Qin Peng led his army to arrive, completed the handover, and then advanced toward the Demon Race.

But to ensure the surprise attack's effectiveness, he immediately ordered the army to set out and advance toward the Demon Race's station.
