Chapter 1762: No Rules
Before reaching Wang Beast Mountain, all of their realm crystal stones had already been completely used up.
Ye Liuyun then absorbed the power of flame, ice, and Magic Crystals to continue his cultivation.
He also found time to forge the second‑grade elixirs, making them available for everyone to take at will.
The third‑grade elixirs were also nearly exhausted; if they didn't find a city to replenish them, they would truly run short.
Ye Liuyun and his companions were so shocked by the speed of resource consumption that even Lan Xin was astonished.
"Too fast! It's only been such a short time, and they're all gone!"
"Indeed! Once we reach the Divine Realm, we feel that countless resources are no longer enough!"
Ye Liuyun also knew that they had been using them too wastefully.
In fact, with realm crystal stones, intermittent use yields better results.
But they were all impatient and wanted to boost their strength quickly, so a bit of waste was understandable.
Anyway, these resources came to them easily, so they naturally didn't conserve them.
Fortunately, the Flying Boat soon arrived at Beast Mountain City near Wang Beast Mountain.
All the Martial Cultivators disembarked from the Flying Boat, and under the inspector's lead, went to the merchants' guild to replenish resources.
Beast Mountain City, appearing smaller than Ice Spring City, seemed like a hastily erected settlement, apparently meant for Martial Cultivators to top up supplies and gear before entering Wang Beast Mountain.
Inside the city, apart from the Chengzhu Fu, there were only two major factions and a Mysterious Origin Tower Guild.
Pei Yong first reminded Ye Liuyun: "The Chengzhu Fu here is actually under the Administrator's control.
If you act here, it would be a provocation against the Chengzhu Fu.
If you were to destroy the Chengzhu Fu, we'd have no explanation when we return."
"Understood! I won't act inside the city!"
Ye Liuyun said directly.
Pei Yong then nodded reassuringly.
The Mysterious Origin Tower Guild here didn't have a full inventory, and its prices were twice those of Jinmen Guan.
"I'm really stupid; I should have bought more stuff before leaving Jinmen Guan!"
Ye Liuyun regretted not buying more resources before departing Jinmen Guan.
He possessed a half‑price gold card for the Mysterious Origin Tower, which would make purchases at Jinmen Guan even cheaper.
After looking around, Ye Liuyun had no interest in spending money.
But they still had at least a two‑month journey to the Royal City.
If he doesn't purchase anything, will there be sufficient resources available on the road?
Pei Yong, seeing that Ye Liuyun didn't want to buy anything, guessed that he didn't care for the goods here.
He whispered to Ye Liuyun: "Inside Wang Beast Mountain, resources are abundant, and there are three Divine Crystal Veins.
However, there are also fourth‑tier ferocious beasts there.
Opportunity and danger coexist."
"Then we won't buy anything; we'll deal with it when we return!"
Ye Liuyun immediately made the decision.
Then all the squads gathered in front of the Chengzhu Fu.
A Third Layer Realm inspector publicly announced: "Our Flying Boat will undergo repairs here for a month.
After a month, everyone will convene here.
Combat among Martial Cultivators is prohibited within the city.
Outside the city there are no rules; you may act as you wish."
"The selection method of the Western Liang Royal Mansion is truly ruthless!"
Ye Liuyun watched as, along the way, Martial Cultivators kept dying; by now, only a little over a thousand remained.
Under Pei Yong's command, aside from Ye Liuyun's squad, only two groups remained, all of which were late‑stage first‑tier Martial Cultivators.
Through this journey's trials, these people's combat skills and strength had all advanced by leaps and bounds.
With a shouted "Disperse" order, many Martial Cultivators immediately surged outward, all heading for Wang Beast Mountain.
Since combat is forbidden inside the city, staying there yields no gain.
Ye Liuyun, seeing so many people pouring out of the city, didn't rush to join the bustle.
The other two squads under Pei Yong immediately followed the crowd out of the city, fearing that if they arrived late at Wang Beast Mountain, they wouldn't find resources.
Pei Yong, like all the inspectors, said nothing and simply watched their performance.
After Ye Liuyun's group had nearly finished moving, he then led Lei Ming and the others outward.
The moment he moved, several squads immediately followed behind them.
Ye Liuyun's squad had many women, and Martial Cultivators had already taken an interest in them.
Ye Liuyun noticed the movements of those squads, a smile curling his lips as he leisurely strolled toward the city outskirts.
Pei Yong also grinned, thinking to himself, "What a death wish!"
He was referring to the squads eyeing Ye Liuyun's women.
The highest realm among these squads was only early second‑tier, so it was fine they didn't intervene; if they did, it would be tantamount to delivering heads to Ye Liuyun's group.
Ye Liuyun's party hadn't gone far when their Divine Sense detected that the Martial Cultivators who had just left the city had already started fighting, with no need to wait until Wang Beast Mountain.
Ye Liuyun immediately accelerated the group, rushing to the city gate.
He wasn't going out to brawl; instead, he seized the chance to use Space Translocation to snatch bargains.
Lei Ming and the others also began to opportunistically devour the Divine Soul Power of weaker Martial Cultivators.
This was indeed a prime opportunity for them to profit.
When they ran, the several squads behind them also started running.
They saw him stop inside the city gate and could only watch from afar.
Outside the city, hundreds of Martial Cultivators were in chaotic battle; after killing someone they would load the body into their own Space World, so Ye Liuyun stole some spoils and no one noticed.
Their Spiritual Soul Attacks went even more unnoticed.
On such a chaotic battlefield, True Essence and Souls flew about, and no one could possibly notice.
Basically, few Martial Cultivators refine Soul power by devouring others' Souls.
It's not that they can't, but those with weak Souls don't dare to do it.
Spiritual Soul Attacks are too dangerous; a misstep can lead to being killed back.
And for Man Shu and the others, absorbing these mid‑to‑late first‑rank Martial Cultivators is just right.
Ye Liuyun even directly attacked the Souls of several early‑stage second‑rank Martial Cultivators.
The fight didn't last long, and the Martial Cultivators gradually dispersed.
They withdrew in different directions.
Ye Liuyun and his group no longer had a chance to act.
They could only wait until the others were far away, then leave the city and rush toward Wang Beast Mountain.
Ye Liuyun's party hadn't gone far when five or six squads surrounded them.
These squads had been arranged beforehand, all coming for the raid on women.
"Ha ha, you women, I've been craving you all the way!"
An early‑stage second‑rank Martial Cultivator laughed loudly and stepped forward.
"Not bad! We've been holding back all the way, haven't touched a woman in ages; since there are no rules, don't blame us…"
Before another Martial Cultivator could finish speaking, his Soul was directly attacked by Lei Ming.
Ye Liuyun also unleashed Yi Dao, cutting the laughing second‑rank Martial Cultivator in half with a single slash.
Afterward, he released a clone, which also joined the fight.
His blade intent is now even stronger.
The blade‑intent seed in the Sea of Consciousness has fully become a sword, its color turned pale green and it still radiates white light.
If Ye Liuyun cultivates further now, that blade‑intent seed will gradually lose its green hue.
These over thirty people were completely wiped out by Ye Liuyun and his group in less than a quarter of an hour.
Ye Liuyun gathered the corpses and handed them to Lan Xin of the Space World for disposal.
Lan Xin has been helping Ye Liuyun sort the spoils, allocating the True Essence pills to Long Nv and Black Panther, while the corpses are all left for Black Panther.
