Chapter 2230: Pay Lip Service, Act in Secret

Everyone, upon hearing about the palace treasure, could not help but sigh in amazement.

So many fine things were given to these people, yet they don't go to the battlefield—what a waste.

After Ye Liuyun and the others learned the information about the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance, they could devise better strategies.

But these people's realms are too high, so they do not dare to force a confrontation.

In the end, the decided method is still to use Divine Soul Power to control them little by little.

Moreover, appropriate rumors must be released so that people recognize the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance's incompetence and weakness, preventing a later change of leadership that Martial Cultivators could not accept.

At the same time, Ye Liuyun had Xia Tianqiong assign agents to infiltrate the Alien Battlefield, reporting information continuously to prepare for strikes against the Foreign Tribe.

Regarding resources, besides the people around Ye Liuyun, the army also began to focus more on soldiers of the Ninth Layer Early Stage and the later phase of the Eighth Realm, striving to quickly cultivate another batch of strong ones for deployment when war with the Foreign Tribe breaks out.

Other soldiers of the Seventh/Eighth Level Realm in the army, if they wish to advance, hide their identity information and blend into the Alien Battlefield to acquire resources.

This not only solves the resource issue but also keeps the High-Level Battlefield effective even if troops withdraw, as numbers remain unchanged, still pressuring the Foreign Tribe.

As for the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance, besides releasing some unfavorable news about them, individual Alien Battlefields can be intensified to provoke the Alliance's people to negotiate with Ye Liuyun, creating an opening for him.

He also covertly contacted the Dragon Clan and Chaotic Beast Mountain, urging them to send strong ones to join the newly infiltrated soldiers on the Alien Battlefield, concentrating forces to assault a Foreign Tribe base and see if it can be breached.

On the other hand, the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance issued a notice that resources had been delivered, and Ye Liuyun promptly withdrew troops as requested, appearing fully cooperative.

But news of the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance showing weakness to the Foreign Tribe quickly spread everywhere.

In the Central Region, some people gradually began to look down on the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance.

Besides the Central Region, other areas had rarely heard of the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance before, so they were even less inclined to accept it.

Moreover, Ye Liuyun covertly had City Lords across the lands stir things up, prompting Martial Cultivators to actively resist the Foreign Tribe, causing the number of troops on the Low-Level Battlefield to increase rather than decrease.

Strong members of the Dragon Clan and Chaotic Beast Mountain quickly arrived at the High-Level Alien Battlefield.

Under the impetus of many soldiers arranged by Ye Liuyun, the crowd's fervor to exterminate the Foreign Tribe surged, and they jointly launched an attack on the tribe's base.

The clone rushed alone to the Alien Battlefield, covertly commanding, breaking through a tribe base, destroying the Teleportation Array, wiping out the tribe inside, and seizing all its resources.

Inside the tribe's base were many Martial Cultivator core pills; the Dragon Clan and Chaotic Beast Mountain took away more than half, and the remainder was given by Ye Liuyun to the nearby Monster Beast and Demon Beast.

The remaining usable resources were distributed to the participating soldiers and Martial Cultivators.

Those they could not use were simply burned.

This battle left everyone with a full purse.

Seeing such great profit, everyone immediately rushed to another battlefield.

The soldiers there, following Ye Liuyun's orders, retreated to cultivate.

When they reached the next high-level base, the situation was the same—Ye Liuyun had already stationed enough soldiers.

Chaotic Beast Mountain, seeing such a huge haul, immediately gathered strong Half-Beasts and rushed to another high-level Alien Battlefield.

The Martial Cultivators there were already restless; upon seeing so many Half-Beasts arrive, they did not wait for Ye Liuyun and prepared to launch an early attack.

Ye Liuyun thought their numbers were comparable, so he also ordered his soldiers to join the strike.

Ye Liuyun and his forces launched another swift offensive.

However, this time they met reinforcements; although they eventually captured the tribe's base, they paid a heavy price.

On the Half-Beast side of the battlefield, when Ye Liuyun discovered reinforcements, he immediately ordered soldiers on another battlefield to retreat and also notified the Beast King of Chaotic Beast Mountain.

But the Half-Beasts were extremely warlike.

Having had no war recently, they finally seized an opportunity to kill at will, yet refused to withdraw.

The Martial Cultivators, also greedy for loot, were unwilling to retreat.

With no other choice, the soldiers withdrew on their own, with more than half leaving at once.

Sure enough, reinforcements from the Foreign Tribe arrived there.

They lacked command and had few strong ones, so the whole army was annihilated.

Although the Foreign Tribe also suffered heavy losses, of the three high-level Alien Battlefields they managed to hold onto one.

When the news reached him, Ye Liuyun felt regret.

But the Monster Beast King of Chaotic Beast Mountain was indifferent: "Let them be! If they stop fighting, they'll have to start a war with me!"

The Beast King was also helpless against these raging Half-Beasts.

"Then give them to me; I'll take them to the Alien Battlefield!"

Ye Liuyun simply took those warlike Half-Beasts.

The Beast King immediately agreed, feeling relieved to have those troubles dispatched.

Fifty thousand Half-Beasts had originally been subdued by Ye Liuyun.

In their minds, Ye Liuyun was stronger than the Beast King.

Now that they heard Ye Liuyun would assign them to battle, they immediately rushed to report to him.

Ye Liuyun also immediately led his soldiers to withdraw completely from the Alien Battlefield.

Only one high-level Alien Battlefield remains now, and all Martial Cultivators have gathered there.

The Foreign Tribe launched a counterattack, but it was repelled by these Martial Cultivators.

The fighting on the Alien Battlefield had just concluded when, spurred by Ye Liuyun's soldiers, the Low-Level Alien Battlefield concentrated forces and attacked two tribe bases.

But only one of them was captured; only one base fell, seizing its resources.

Consequently, the Foreign Tribe had to reinforce the Low-Level base to resist the Martial Cultivators' frantic assaults.

Before these events, Martial Cultivators feared the Foreign Tribe and the Corpse Demon, but now they treat them merely as resource targets and no longer fear them.

Conversely, the Foreign Tribe developed a psychological shadow; upon seeing many Human Race Martial Cultivators, they fled immediately.

Such a major incident naturally led the Foreign Tribe to threaten the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance.

Zhang Lingquan immediately used a Transmission Talisman to inquire of Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun, of course, brushed it off entirely.

What can I do? I've withdrawn all the soldiers.

Now the martial cultivators are enthusiastic! Moreover, I heard that the foreign tribe has closed the alien battlefield, right?

Isn't that better?

Let's just not fight!

Anyway, the battle is over, the resources are in hand, he already took the advantage—if we don't fight, we don't fight.

Sigh! You're thinking too simply! If they close the battlefield, those foreign tribes can only go to the real battlefield, right?

Zhang Lingquan complained to Ye Liuyun.

Then let our martial cultivators also go to the real battlefield and wipe them out!

Ye Liuyun said offhandedly.

It's not that simple! Forget it, even using a transmission talisman won't make it clear—I'd rather go and talk to you in person!

Zhang Lingquan, helpless, had to rush again to the central dynasty to argue with Ye Liuyun.
