Chapter 2184: Full Clan Mobilization

The Dragon Clan was the first to receive the news.

They immediately sent He Lian Xiu and Yao Hong to Lin'an City.

This time they also dispatched a team of strong individuals to follow and protect.

Chaotic Beast Mountain once again sent several powerful great demons, rushing to Lin'an City to aid.

They all know that Ye Liuyun is launching a counterattack against the Spirit Clan this time.

If they take part even a little, their effort won't be in vain.

Many of the Red Luan Pavilion members have already arrived at Lin'an City, awaiting their pavilion master's arrival.

The Spirit Clan's repeated provocations against the Dongyun Dynasty have made it a public enemy disrupting stability in the Eastern Region.

The Spirit Clan's core Elders were utterly stunned, never expecting this lineup to be defeated by Ye Liuyun!

"Bastard! What kind of strength does the Dongyun Dynasty actually have?"

Grand Elder Yu Lianhui also began berating the Elders who gathered intelligence.

The Spirit Clan elder responsible for gathering intelligence slumped on the ground, unsure what to say.

He merely reported the collected information faithfully, never expecting Ye Liuyun to conceal his strength so thoroughly.

"Is it possible that the over one hundred fifty Martial Cultivators he brought this time are just putting on a show to frighten us?

They hide their realms with treasures, making it impossible to tell whether they are genuine Ninth Layer masters."

An elder raised a question.

Another elder immediately retorted, "He has no need to do that! If he didn't have so many, he could just take the original combatants.

The travel time would be enough for those people to recover!

Moreover, this time he'll definitely engage us, not backing down as easily as last time.

Bringing some fake experts would be exposed instantly!"

"Now the Dragon Clan, Chaotic Beast Mountain, and Red Luan Pavilion are all eyeing us ferociously; this time they'll probably join forces!"

Another elder said with concern.

Everyone finally looked at Yu Lianhui, waiting for his decision,

"Alas!"

Yu Lianhui let out a long sigh, helplessly saying, "It's already like this; what else can we do?

Notify the Clan Chief; mobilize the entire clan for battle!"

The Spirit Clan Clan Chief Lin Tianqi was also summoned; after learning the situation, he had no other recourse but to convene all Spirit Clan Elders for mobilization.

But before the Elders could gather, another poisoning incident broke out within the Spirit Clan, and this time seemed even worse than before, with many Elders succumbing to the poison.

One spread to ten, ten to a hundred; before these people even reached the battlefield, many Spirit Clan members had already perished.

The poison sources were the Spirit Clan disciples previously controlled by Ye Liuyun, as well as Mu Lingxi.

After a period of cultivation, these individuals' poisoning abilities grew stronger and more covert, generally requiring no physical contact to poison from a distance.

"Retribution has arrived!"

Among the Spirit Clan disciples, this saying spread quickly.

Many people dared not leave their homes.

Even when venturing out, they shielded their bodies with spiritual energy, avoiding contact and keeping far apart.

For a moment, the Spirit Clan's overall morale plummeted.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun also arrived at Lin'an City.

He Lian Xiu, Yao Hong and his subordinates, the Dragon Clan, and Chaotic Beast Mountain's strongmen gathered together.

"Kangning City's garrison stands ready, the Death Legion advances forward, all Martial Cultivators, march with the army!"

Ye Liuyun wasted no words and immediately issued the attack order.

The Death Legion's hundred‑thousand troops, under He Lian Xiu's command, set out for the front line at once.

Passing Kangning City, they stormed straight through.

They continued to push forward.

"Siege!"

After leaving Kangning City, He Lian Xiu gave a command, and the Death Legion immediately launched an attack on the opposite city.

First, the siege Puppet Beast and Warship coordinated to blast open the city gates; then several rounds of Warship bombardments inflicted heavy losses on the Spirit Clan's defending Martial Cultivators, after which the main force pressed forward, launching a combined assault that swept the Spirit Clan's Martial Cultivators away.

This formation's combined attack multiplied its power; even though every Spirit Clan member possessed a Token, they still could not block the Death Legion's joint assault.

Ye Liuyun's Black Armor Guard also advanced with the Death Legion, capturing and slaying the Spirit Clan's strong Martial Cultivators.

The Death Legion's troops rediscovered their battle fervor; wherever they passed, not a blade nor a blade of grass remained.

"Divide into three routes, thirty thousand each, advance in rotation; ten thousand middle troops stand ready to support at any time."

Ye Liuyun accelerated the advance.

At the same time, the Dagger Unit was released by Ye Liuyun.

The strongmen of the Dragon Clan and other major forces stared in amazement; they hadn't expected Ye Liuyun to have thousands of elite soldiers beside him, including over two hundred Martial Cultivators at the Ninth Layer Early Stage.

Only Ye Liuyun could afford to use Ninth Layer Early Stage Martial Cultivators as foot soldiers.

When the Death Legion appeared, the main army's forward speed instantly increased.

The strongmen of the various major forces mostly followed behind, watching the spectacle.

As long as no Spirit Clan strongman stepped forward, they need not act.

Only the Red Luan Pavilion sometimes cooperates with the Dagger Unit in attacks.

However, their efficiency is far lower than that of the Death Legion.

Soon, the supporting Spirit Clan elders arrived at the front, but once they acted, they were immediately taken down by the strongmen of several major forces, requiring no effort from Ye Liuyun's own forces.

So the Spirit Clan kept suffering defeats.

Half a month later, one-third of the Spirit Clan's territory had already been seized by Ye Liuyun.

Moreover, wherever the army passed, everything lay in ruins.

The Spirit Clan's prisoners were also turned into cannon fodder units, becoming the vanguard of the next attack, so they no longer had to worry about handling prisoners.

Ye Liuyun had the army launch a sudden assault, advancing until they reached the Spirit Clan's pass, only then ordering the army to temporarily rest here.

This also gave the Spirit Clan's civilians time to flee.

He still remembered Mo Shaowen's instruction to avoid killing civilians as much as possible.

But now it is a major war; to achieve the strategic objective, some accidental killings are unavoidable.

Moreover, he cannot be too precise; he can only do his best.

But he was not idle either; he also sent out the Martial Cultivators he had brought and the people of the Red Luan Pavilion to constantly attack nearby Spirit Clan experts, driving all the Spirit Clan near the pass away.

Only then did he have the Spirit Clan disciples under his control stop poisoning.

Lest his own soldiers also become contaminated by the poison source.

Although the spread of the Spirit Clan's poison source had been temporarily halted, they had completely lost their will to fight.

The fleeing Spirit Clan Martial Cultivators also returned in large numbers to the Spirit Clan's base to seek refuge.

The Spirit Clan Clan Chief could only send someone to negotiate with Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun's conditions were also simple: kill all the current core elders, compensate for his losses and casualties, otherwise there would be no talk.

Spirit Clan Clan Chief Lin Tianqi, of course, could not possibly kill all the Spirit Clan's core elders, so he ordered Yu Lianhui: "Sound the Spirit Clan alarm bell!"

"Yes!"

Yu Lianhui also immediately carried it out.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

The Spirit Clan's internal alarm bell kept echoing throughout the Spirit Clan's territory.

Even Ye Liuyun's group at the pass could hear it.

Yao Hong explained to Ye Liuyun: "This alarm bell only sounds when the Spirit Clan faces a peril of annihilation! All the Spirit Clan's reclusive great experts, upon hearing the bell's summons, will take action! Even the Yin Souls of the great experts within the Spirit Clan mausoleum will join the battle!"
