Chapter 2136: The World‑Ending Might
Inside the Royal Palace, the ground the attack swept over turned to dead ash, not a single tile remained.
Looking at the Spirit Clan's Martial Cultivators, besides Luo Yi, who was blasted until his clothes were torn and he fell unconscious, the other Ninth Realm Spirit Clan Martial Cultivators had their bodies shattered.
As for the Seventh/Eighth Level Realm disciples, need not say more; even their shattered corpses could not be found, having been instantly melted by the high temperature of the True Essence.
Not even their Storage Rings remained.
This scene left the women in the Grand Hall staring in stunned silence.
This power could literally be described as world‑ending.
Even the Black Armor Guards who launched the attacks were frozen in place.
They had not expected the combined attack to have such a strong effect.
Jing Yong and Zhang Heng hovered in the air, just now also exerting all their strength to resist the heat.
"It feels a bit too much, huh?"
Zhang Heng excitedly sent a Transmission Voice to Jing Yong.
"I didn't expect it to be this strong! How am I supposed to report this to the master!"
Jing Yong was also at a loss.
"Well, um…," Zhang Heng thought for a long while but could not come up with a solution.
"Check whether the person is dead!"
After Wu Qingcheng recovered, she immediately ordered someone to check if Luo Yi was dead.
Jing Yong and Zhang Heng rushed over to investigate.
"Reporting to the Princess, the old fellow is wearing two layers of protective clothing and still has a breath left!"
Jing Yong reported this to Wu Qingcheng.
"Seal his True Essence; let the Prince handle it when he returns!"
Wu Qingcheng gave the order and immediately notified Ye Liuyun.
Jing Yong sealed Luo Yi's True Essence and captured him into his Space Ring.
At this moment, Luo Yi's appearance was completely unrecognizable, his flesh and blood a mess.
Once his True Essence was sealed, he could no longer recover, lacking the power to harm anyone.
Wu Qingcheng promptly arranged for Wu Kun to be summoned to re‑lay the Formation, and to handle guard duties and the Royal Palace reconstruction.
Upon hearing that a living one had also been captured, Ye Liuyun rushed back at once.
Seeing the Royal Palace reduced to this state, he was also stunned.
"All the Three‑Layer Arrays were destroyed?"
He had not expected the opponent to be this powerful!
"It wasn't them who struck; we launched the attack ourselves!"
Wu Qingcheng immediately explained this to Ye Liuyun.
"It's still that many people make great strength!"
Although Ye Liuyun did not see the scene firsthand, the results made it clear how terrifying it had been.
He immediately sent his clone to train the Foreign Tribe he had enslaved within the Space World, using battle Formations to launch collective attacks, emulating this method.
Jing Yong and Zhang Heng also came to beg forgiveness.
"Forget it, you acted unintentionally; no one could have foreseen this outcome!"
Ye Liuyun did not blame them, but instructed them to intensify training, split into smaller squads of varying sizes, rehearse several times before use, so they could later confront enemies.
Jing Yong handed Luo Yi over to Ye Liuyun for dealing with.
Ye Liuyun looked at the still‑unconscious Luo Yi, first placed a Slave Seal on him, then, after a moment's thought, released Divine Soul Power again to erase his memory.
Then he used poison to corrode Luo Yi's face, before letting Jing Yong lift the True Yuan Seal.
He then infused Demon Qi into Luo Yi's Yuan Pill, corroding his Yuan Pill.
"What are you doing?"
Wu Qingcheng asked in confusion.
"Erase his memory so he completely forgets the Spirit Clan.
Use poison to corrode his face, so he can never fully recover his original form.
Infuse Demon Qi to transmute his Yuan Pill, so he will no longer bear any Spirit Clan traits.
That way the Spirit Clan will never recognize him again! Yet his cultivation level can never advance thereafter!"
In fact, Ye Liuyun's original intention was to make Luo Yi a slave without such suffering, to completely forget his past, and then follow him devotedly to kill the Foreign Tribe, thereby not wasting his cultivation level.
He thought that Spirit Clan Martial Cultivators who reached such high realms yet did not confront the Foreign Tribe were a waste.
Jing Yong and Zhang Heng, upon hearing this, felt terrified and would no longer act recklessly, fearing to anger Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun then instructed them: "Announce to the outside that all Spirit Clan Martial Cultivators have been killed, leaving no bodies! This body shall now be called Pang Ren, and will serve as my personal guard!"
"Understood!"
Jing Yong and Zhang Heng quickly agreed and then stepped back.
Wu Qingcheng also issued a notice, claiming that all Spirit Clan Martial Cultivators had been annihilated, not a single one left.
Those outside the palace, having witnessed such a powerful attack with their own eyes, naturally believed it.
Moreover, after the Formation was shattered, the aura of the Ninth Realm late stage emanating from Jing Yong and others was sensed by the Martial Cultivators within the Royal City.
Everyone only then realized that the Royal Palace housed many Ninth Realm masters.
Wu Qingcheng also stationed over a dozen Ninth Realm early‑stage Martial Cultivators at the ruined palace gates to prevent civilians from wandering in freely.
Soon, the world‑ending might of that strike spread throughout the eastern region.
People wildly spread the news that a peerless powerhouse resided in the palace; even the Spirit Clan Ninth Realm late‑stage Elder and ten Ninth Realm Martial Cultivators were slain in a single blow.
Even Ninth Layer Early Stage strongmen are only fit to guard the main gate of the Royal Palace.
Even the Spirit Clan believed it.
Because they received Luo Yi's final Transmission Voice, they already knew they were about to face disaster.
"How could this be possible?
Where did the Dongyun Dynasty get so many strongmen?"
The Spirit Clan's Elders also found it inconceivable.
But the facts lie before their eyes.
Now they have failed to steal a chicken and ended up losing the rice; not only have they lost a Ninth Layer Late Stage strongman, but the resources and territories they lost are also unrecoverable.
A Ninth Layer Late Stage strongman, for any major power, is still an important force.
The death of even one could trigger a shift in power.
With so many strongmen in the Dongyun Dynasty, the Spirit Clan would not hard‑fight them.
The information Luo Yi personally reported before his death is absolutely truthful.
They were clearly duped by Ye Liuyun, sending a Ninth Layer Late Stage Martial Cultivator to die.
The Dragon Clan, Chaotic Beast Mountain, and Red Luan Pavilion once again looked at Ye Liuyun with newfound respect.
They had not anticipated that Ye Liuyun would win so decisively.
Ye Liuyun let his Duplicate capture Pang Ren into the Space World, then returned to the Alien Battlefield.
He also gave Pang Ren a new technique, letting him resume cultivation.
All memory of the original technique had been erased by Ye Liuyun, turning Pang Ren completely into a Demon Cultivator, spending his days with the Demon Beasts inside the Duplicate Space World, absorbing Demon Qi.
"Consider this your punishment for dealing with me! I hope the Spirit Clan will take this as a warning and stop sending people to die!"
Ye Liuyun also hoped in his heart that the Spirit Clan would no longer target him.
"With so many strongmen, why not kill some Foreign Tribesmen?"
But things, contrary to his wishes, would not go that smoothly.
The Spirit Clan cannot strike the Dynasty, yet they know Ye Liuyun is alone on the Alien Battlefield.
"We will also send people to the Alien Battlefield! Now the people in the east all say we don't send troops to fight! We'll just dispatch a large number of disciples to kill Ye Liuyun."
"Indeed, he killed Luo Yi; there must be blood for blood!"
"We must capture him alive.
That Divine Crystal spirit demon is still extremely important! After capturing it, interrogating it for the Divine Crystal spirit demon before killing it later is not too late."
"Then just maim him, leave him a breath, and that's enough!"
