Chapter 1259: Low‑Profile Secrecy
The Foreign Tribe Leader now regrets it, but it's already too late.
He never imagined that, as a Leader and a strong one, he would be easily killed by a few ordinary soldiers of the opponent.
What made him even more resentful was that he didn't even manage to kill a single ordinary soldier.
So, subconsciously, he felt compelled to avenge himself before dying.
But the other two Demon Cultivators had already raised their shields, standing in front of those two Demon Cultivators. The timing was just right, and they blocked his attack.
At the same time, the two Demon Cultivators who had pierced him also sheathed their weapons and withdrew their hands.
"This tactic, so strong…"
The Foreign Tribe Leader's final thoughts were not finished when he already lost consciousness.
Without a Leader, the Foreign Tribe's massive army inside the city fell into chaos, fighting each other, and were eliminated one by one by Ye Liuyun's elite troops.
Occasionally, some Foreign Tribe who escaped the attack, carrying a few Corpse Demons, were also intercepted at the city wall.
Inside the entire city, not a single person escaped.
"This combat power…" Zuo Mu, standing beside Ye Liuyun, watched with unabated envy, clicking his tongue repeatedly.
Ye Liuyun's team grew more spirited the more they fought, and the blood‑cursed aura around them grew ever denser.
Even some low‑realm Corpse Demons, upon seeing their advance, wailed in terror and dared not resist, being slaughtered right before their eyes.
Those soldiers were also merciless, leaving none behind.
After half a day, the whole city finally quieted down. The troops began clearing the battlefield.
Inside the city, the graceful sparrows were silent, a blanket of deathly stillness.
It was only now that Zuo Mu realized that Ye Liuyun's team, from start to finish, made no sound at all, silently slaughtering.
Even when wounded, no one uttered a sound.
All the shouting inside the city came from those Corpse Demons, the Foreign Tribe, and the opposing Demon Cultivators.
Zuo Mu's hair stood on end.
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have imagined Ye Liuyun had cultivated such a powerful team!" He silently resolved in his heart to train a team like that himself.
But he was reluctant to train his troops the way Ye Liuyun did, so naturally he couldn't achieve that result.
"I hope Brother Zuo Mu will keep this secret for me!"
Ye Liuyun spoke to Zuo Mu.
Zuo Mu nodded in agreement, understanding that Ye Liuyun meant to keep this team secret.
This team could absolutely serve as a weapon against the Foreign Tribe, delivering a lethal strike at a crucial moment, and must never allow the Foreign Tribe to prepare in advance.
When Ye Liuyun's team withdrew, Zuo Mu immediately dispatched people to occupy the city, intending to leave their aura there so the Foreign Tribe would think it had been taken by the Demon Race.
Ye Liuyun's main assault force was also Demon Cultivators, making the concealment very convenient.
Ye Liuyun did not linger; he promptly led his team back to his own base.
But Zuo Mu, leading the Demon Race, spread the news of capturing a city occupied by the Foreign Tribe quickly through both armies.
The Leaders of the Great Summer Imperial Dynasty, though some doubted the Demon Race possessed such ability, regarded it as a morale‑boosting event and paid it no special heed.
The Foreign Tribe, however, was completely baffled.
The Demon Race has this ability? Why didn't they receive a rescue signal from the army's Leader?
Tuomu Hai immediately dispatched two hundred thousand troops to retake the city.
Zuo Mu, being self‑aware, withdrew his men before the Foreign Tribe's army arrived, leaving the empty city to the Foreign Tribe.
Thus the Foreign Tribe never encountered the Demon Race's true strength and dared not pull back their entire army, only sending those two hundred thousand troops to jointly defend the city.
Zuo Mu smirked inwardly, not expecting Ye Liuyun's maneuver to hold the Foreign Tribe's two hundred thousand troops here.
After returning, Ye Liuyun did not idle; together with Qin Peng, he again led this team to sequentially annihilate a Foreign Tribe transport‑supply battalion and a freshly rotated ten‑thousand‑strong army.
However, there was no suitable city left for them to target.
But since then, Ye Liuyun sealed this team away. They never appeared on the battlefield again.
Within Ye Liuyun's own army, everyone assumed the team was wiped out after being sent on a mission.
Outsiders knew even less about the team's existence. After a period, the team gradually faded from memory.
After returning, Zuo Mu also intensified training, but after several attempts, the casualties were too great, and he ultimately had to abandon it.
The Demon Race had previously expended too much; their numbers could no longer support training troops as Ye Liuyun did.
At this point, Ye Liuyun had already begun training a second batch of elite Demon Cultivator soldiers, with Qin Peng in charge of the training.
The new elite Demon Cultivators frequently used the Foreign Tribe's massive army for training.
But the Foreign Tribe was no different; they also honed their troops through constant battles.
Other battlefields were similar, both sides continuously training their troops.
However, the Foreign Tribe suffered more setbacks due to a lack of equipment resources. Since they already had large numbers, the Great Summer Imperial Dynasty's army could never make a decisive advance.
During the stalemate, Ye Liuyun found himself much more at ease.
He spent most of his time cultivating within Xuan Kong Shi.
Now that cultivation resources were abundant and he had spare time, he simply prepared to break through another realm.
The few pills the war victory granted him he still hasn't been willing to use, relying instead on his own cultivation resources.
Now he intends to further temper his Physical Body.
At least to endure hits, so he won't be at a disadvantage in combat.
Moreover, improving the Physical Body is not limited by realms; it will improve sooner or later.
The pill for the Soul he doesn't need for now. Recently he has been absorbing plenty of Soul power, so he can wait a while.
After making up his mind, he swallowed the pill that enhances Physical Body quality.
What he didn't expect was that the pill's effect was too intense; at his current realm, it was hard to endure.
"What grade of pill is this, it's so strong! If I had known, I would have taken only half first!"
Ye Liuyun now regrets it, but it's too late; the medicinal effect has already taken effect.
He only felt that his meridians were first being destroyed bit by bit, then rebuilt. This process was somewhat similar to the meridian reconstruction during a breakthrough, and he could still endure it.
But next came the bones.
He felt that the medicinal effect was like melting his bones, penetrating deep inside and remaking his bones.
This pain was very similar to pain that penetrates to the marrow.
Ye Liuyun managed to endure until the end solely by relying on the constant awakening of the Ten Thousand Gods Command, lest he pass out.
Yet the medicinal effect's work was not limited to that; before his bones were fully transformed, the effect began to remodel his muscles.
