Chapter 2272: Island Assault
The giant python, in pain, immediately curled its whole body into a ball and begged Ye Liuyun for mercy.
Suddenly, with another "Puff" sound, its core was devoured, leaving it unable to resist the Demon Slaying Sword; the sword instantly activated, surged straight toward the giant python's head, burst out of its head, drawing a line of blood.
Ye Liuyun seized the chance, shot an arrow at the giant python's heart, blasting it open.
The giant python only managed to open its huge mouth, then, unwillingly, slammed onto the ground.
Seeing it not fully dead, the Demon Slaying Sword moved to its neck, added a few more cuts, and cleanly sliced off its head.
He immediately released a clone, letting the clone's Soul cooperate with his, pulling the giant python's Soul into the Sea of Consciousness, where they together devoured its Divine Soul Power.
The Magic Vine also extended, swallowing the python's head, eliminating it completely.
Ye Liuyun then retrieved the Demon Slaying Sword, stored the giant python's Physical Body into the Space World as food reserves.
Back on the Warship, everyone cheered and asked him to cut some snake meat to roast, celebrating their first victory in Xingkong.
Ye Liuyun hadn't expected that a Black and White Light without a clone could kill the giant python.
"All because of the Magic Vine's attack."
"Actually I didn't do much either!"
Ye Liuyun credited all the merit to the Magic Vine.
After the Magic Vine devoured the giant python's core, it returned to Xuan Kong Shi to digest.
He then led everyone in cutting plenty of snake meat to roast, and the flavor received unanimous praise.
Next, while sailing through Xingkong, they encountered many strange and bizarre ferocious beasts.
They mostly occupied individual Dao xu.
And without exception, all were of gigantic size.
It seems these roaming ferocious beasts in Xingkong are all fairly large.
They even saw some beasts that gradually swallowed entire Dao xu piece by piece.
So regarding such powerful beings, Ye Liuyun and his group avoided them whenever possible.
Only when confronted by a Xingkong giant beast that attacked them did Ye Liuyun have to bring the Magic Vine to fight.
Gradually, Lei Ming, Qiong Qi, Mo Tianheng, Yuan Hao also adapted to the pressure of Xingkong outside, and increasingly could join the battle, easing Ye Liuyun's burden considerably.
These people broadened their horizons, even witnessing a fire phoenix incinerate an entire Dao xu, and seeing a purple qilin.
However, the intimidation of these beasts was too great, so Ye Liuyun's group dared not provoke them casually.
They once encountered Human Martial Cultivators on a Xiao dao.
But those people's realms were too low, not even reaching the Divine Realm.
Ye Liuyun only left them some cultivation methods, then continued onward with the others.
"I never imagined that, from afar, the pitch‑black Xingkong actually contains so many Dao xu!"
"Isn't that right! If you look back now, can you still see the Divine Realm?"
Our Divine Realm is just a tiny Xiao dao called Outpost Island! It's not even a Xingqiu!
When they gathered, everyone kept marveling that the outside world was like this.
Their previous knowledge was merely looking at the sky from a well.
Qiong Qi and Tong Xin together devised two Kuailei that could fight in Xingkong, and their combat power was impressive.
Most importantly, these Kuailei were very hard to destroy.
Even attacks from the Super Divine Realm could be withstood for a while.
However, these Kuailei consumed too much Crystal Stone, so they only made two to assist in battle or guard the Flying Boat and Warship.
As time passed, the target Dao xu grew larger in Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil.
In a few more days, they should be able to reach it.
For safety, Ye Liuyun first loaded everyone into the Space World, then prepared to replace the Warship with one of stronger Defense Array.
So that any Human Martial Cultivator or Foreign Tribe there wouldn't attack them upon arrival.
The Flying Boat's Defense Array is relatively weak, and if destroyed, they'd lose their fast Xingkong navigation vessel.
Soon, Ye Liuyun finished the swap; three hundred soldiers were split into two squads to pilot the Warship and operate its weaponry.
Yuan Hao's army was also extracted from the Space World by Ye Liuyun, ready for battle.
Zhu Youfu and Tong Xin stayed protected inside Ye Liuyun's Space World, while everyone else prepared for combat.
Ye Liuyun, Mo Tianheng, and Qiong Qi—those with stronger Divine Soul Power—took turns monitoring the outside.
Just as they neared the Dao xu, Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil suddenly spotted a Foreign Tribe Warship blasting out from the island.
"Give chase and destroy it!"
Ye Liuyun ordered immediately.
Their Warship pursued at once.
Their Warship carried twenty‑thousand crew, while the Foreign Tribe's Warship held a hundred‑thousand; slower, when it tried to turn back upon spotting Ye Liuyun, it was blocked by Ye Liuyun's Warship.
Suddenly, thirty points along Ye Liuyun's Warship side transformed, each sprouting a black‑hole‑shaped Energy Cannon muzzle.
Then the thirty Energy Cannons fired in unison, and within a few rounds shattered the Foreign Tribe's Defense Array.
Ye Liuyun, with Qiong Qi and others and the Kuailei, charged straight into the enemy Warship, deploying Magic Vine in case strong foes were present.
However, inside that Warship were only a few thousand beings at the fifth or sixth level of the Divine Realm among the Foreign Tribe.
The leaders were merely a few Foreign Tribe members at the Ninth Realm.
They had just delivered a hundred‑thousand Foreign Tribe troops and many resources here for reinforcement, intending to return to another Foreign Tribe‑occupied Xingqiu.
Through Soul Search, Ye Liuyun learned that the planet occupied by these Foreign Tribe is nearly three months away.
There are nearly a million Foreign Tribe troops there.
All waiting for this Warship to shuttle them back and forth.
This Da dao, called Lookout Island, is indeed where the Human Race is opposing them, and the fierce battles between the two sides have lasted many years.
However, they didn't set up any trial grounds; they have been fighting on their own territory all along.
The Foreign Tribe has now occupied one fifth of their territory.
Ye Liuyun also gathered information such as the Foreign Tribe's docking locations, then exterminated all those Foreign Tribe, and the Warship was handed over to Qiong Qi and Tong Xin for repair.
He also told Qiong Qi and Tong Xin: "Do not modify this Warship; keep the Foreign Tribe Warship's shape, so that we can use it later to infiltrate the Foreign Tribe!"
After Ye Liuyun returned, he recounted the information to everyone, and immediately set sail toward the Human Race's settlement.
Here, the Human Martial Cultivators still do not know that the Foreign Tribe has added a hundred thousand troops.
Ye Liuyun wants to tell them early, so they won't suffer losses.
Everyone also feels that they have arrived at just the right time.
The Human Martial Cultivators here are resisting the Foreign Tribe, and consequently are more amenable to negotiations.
Ye Liuyun's Warship, after bursting into this world, immediately attracted the locals' attention.
Ye Liuyun and his companions also sized up these locals.
