Chapter 2540: The Grand Army Presses In
In the Northern war zone of the Foreign Tribe, the army preparing to launch an expedition against the Holy Land Dynasty has also readied its departure.
They claim this marching army numbers ten million, but in fact the headcount exceeds fourteen million.
The extra four million alien tribes are provisions they intend to consume en route, allowing them to continue strengthening their power halfway.
Moreover, this marching army is led by a Gold‑armored King, the Leader named Sanda, who calls himself the Hundred‑victory King.
He also brings ten Gold‑armored Alien Tribe members and over two hundred Silver‑armored Alien Tribe auxiliaries.
The number of Foreign Tribe members at the Third Layer Realm already reaches nearly ten thousand.
Those at the First and Second Realms number over a hundred thousand, a scale that can be called terrifying.
However, the Three‑eyed Alien Tribe are few, only three in total.
Most of the Three‑eyed are left for the Gold‑armored Alien Tribe to breed or have their three eyes directly absorbed.
Furthermore, these alien tribes have retired the slow giant massive warships, opting instead for uniform warships that can carry only fifty thousand people, which are much faster.
They set out from the outpost nearest the Holy Land, estimating that arrival will take just over a year.
Because of the large number of warships, the fleet appears immensely massive and grand.
Ye Liuyun is at this moment sparring with a half‑beast Corpse Demon Kuailei, and after a few days of training, Magic Vine ran off.
Through his continual practice, Ye Liuyun's golden blades have increased to thirty‑five.
Moreover, these thirty‑five golden blades can not only separate but also merge into one, and he controls them with growing ease.
Magic Vine considers these golden blades his nemesis and is often wounded.
Therefore, Ye Liuyun now can only practice with the half‑beast Corpse Demon Kuailei.
Thus, resource consumption doubles, and he must also replenish the Kuailei.
But now no one else matches him, so he can only spare some resources.
His Spatial Power continues to strengthen.
He practices this specifically to evade White Light and Black Light attacks, allowing him to shift his position more swiftly.
His mastery of Spatial Power becomes increasingly refined; various attacks come off effortlessly, and their speed keeps increasing.
It becomes so fast that even he feels as if he appears in different places at the same time.
Now even the half‑beast Corpse Demon Kuailei cannot locate him, being bewildered by his strikes.
Of course, while Ye Liuyun trains himself, he also helps the half‑beast Corpse Demon Kuailei improve its Spatial Power.
Their progress is rapid; their Spatial Power is already close to surpassing the level of the Blue‑armored.
Moreover, Ye Liuyun's attack range keeps extending.
This also prevents getting too close to the alien tribes and being ambushed by the Three‑eyed Alien Tribe.
Ye Liuyun often compares his own strength with Mu Xi.
Heaven and Earth Power is also being intensively cultivated.
Now, when he unleashes a full‑force palm, he can smash the void, creating a sense of a collapsing void wave.
However, without borrowing the power of the Space World, his attack effect remains considerably weaker.
After Ye Liuyun once consumed the Mysterious Origin into emptiness, he returned to his clone's Space World, replenished the Mysterious Origin, and suddenly thought of the Underworld.
Zhuge Feiyu is stationed in the Underworld, so he has nothing to worry about.
But it has been a long time since he visited, and he should probably inquire, fulfilling his duty as the Lord of the Underworld.
Thus he used the teleportation Black Tower to go straight to the Underworld, arriving at the Underworld King's Hall.
His sudden appearance startled the people inside the Underworld King's Hall.
Ye Liuyun was also greatly surprised upon emerging, finding that the Underworld King's Hall had gathered many Yin Souls.
Zhuge Feiyu seemed to be convening a meeting; Xiuluo, Baisu and others were present.
"Um… is this a bad time for me to come?"
Ye Liuyun asked awkwardly.
"Haha, we thought you had forgotten us!"
Zhuge Feiyu also laughed, immediately standing to welcome him.
Xiuluo, Baisu and the others each came forward to greet Ye Liuyun.
"Don't be formal! I see you're researching matters—how has the Underworld been lately?"
Ye Liuyun directly asked about the recent state of the Underworld.
"Your return is perfect; we just ran into a big trouble!"
Xiuluo said directly.
Zhuge Feiyu, however, did not rush to tell Ye Liuyun about the trouble, but instead explained the overall situation of the Underworld.
"In recent years, the Underworld has expanded extremely rapidly.
Basically, each time you reach a new place, the Underworld adds another gate that connects to it.
Thus, even without contacting you, we know which world you have entered and roughly what has happened.
Moreover, the Underworld has recently taken in many more alien tribes.
At first, we only retained some strong alien tribes as guards.
But later, as you eliminated more alien tribes, the alien Yin Souls multiplied, and we could not even keep up with extermination.
In the end we could only accept the alien Yin Souls as well.
It is just that recently you killed many strong alien tribes in the Holy Land.
We have not yet had time to subdue these strong ones, and they have gathered together, beginning to resist our governance."
Ye Liuyun, hearing this, was also greatly surprised.
"Wherever I go, will it connect to the Underworld?"
He didn't really care much about those Foreign Tribe.
Since he can handle those Foreign Tribe in the Holy Land, in the Underworld they are even less of a match for him.
"Right.
But you have to take charge there first; only then will the Underworld become connected."
Zhuge Feiyu explained.
"But I haven't even occupied the Holy Land, either?"
Ye Liuyun asked, puzzled.
"Yes! The exact reason we also don't know.
But I guess your strength already can protect the Holy Land, so the Underworld tacitly assumes you now govern there!"
Zhuge Feiyu said to Ye Liuyun.
"The Underworld even has this function!"
Ye Liuyun couldn't help but feel amazed.
Ye Liuyun released his Divine Sense, perceiving the Underworld's various changes, and immediately understood them fully.
He even saw Mu Xi and those people, all gathered together, hurrying toward the Underworld King Hall.
"Prepare the Soul Barrier; they're coming!"
Ye Liuyun gave Zhuge Feiyu a quick instruction and then headed outward.
Just then an Underworld soldier rushed in to report that Mu Xi and the others were attacking.
Ye Liuyun, while walking, also sensed his own power in the Underworld.
Suddenly Ye Liuyun discovered that his Heaven and Earth Power was astonishingly strong in the Underworld.
He could even mobilize all the Underworld's forces.
The Underworld is the Yin Soul Land that connects countless worlds, and this power is so great that a few Space Worlds' forces cannot compare.
"Why didn't I feel such a strong power before?"
Ye Liuyun was also analyzing in his mind.
"I guess it's because my realm has risen, and my control over Heaven and Earth Power has improved, causing this effect.
Perhaps it's because the Underworld has expanded."
Ye Liuyun didn't get a precise answer, but now he at least knows he cannot be defeated in the Underworld.
At this moment, he truly resembles the ruler of the Underworld.
And with confidence now, regarding Mu Xi and those Foreign Tribe strong ones, he worries even less.
Even if all of Mu Xi and the others strike together, Ye Liuyun is untroubled.
