Chapter 2840: Decisive Strike
Fang Sihai and Ye Liuyun began racing to harvest planets.
The Martial Cultivators that Fang Sihai sent were all dealt with by the monster beasts under Ye Liuyun, who let them fight freely.
There were Zhu Que's Spiritual Soul Attacks, Chi Lian absorbing Bloodline Power, Lei Ming and Jiutou Molong's Black and White Light, Xuanwu's Black Light, yet Ye Liuyun was not worried about them being at a loss.
Long Nv, Shi Yuan, Xiao Lanbing and Bai Hu were responsible for the counter‑attack, drawing the Martial Cultivators' attention; the Bloodline Power Chi Lian absorbed was shared with the monster beasts to boost them.
Zhu Que also helped the monster beasts increase their Divine Soul Power.
When they destroyed a Martial Cultivator's Primordial Core, they divided it evenly, jointly strengthening their realms, working with great tacit understanding.
The Martial Cultivators came in waves, only to be wiped out wave after wave, never to return.
Ye Liuyun's planet‑harvesting speed was not affected at all.
They had now entered Fang Sihai's sphere of influence and began to contest him directly.
Strongers of the Return-to-One realm such as Li Kuo were present; dissent was met with immediate elimination.
When they met the powerful Ye Liuyun, they struck to subdue him and handed him over to Ye Tiandao to deal with.
Another Return-to-One realm strongman, upon seeing Ye Liuyun and Fang Sihai contesting, thought staying was dangerous, that neither side was safe, so after harvesting the Primordial Power of a few planets, he simply fled.
Ye Liuyun then sent a clone with Hei Shan and Liao Tianyang to seize all the planets within that Martial Cultivator's territory.
This was Ye Liuyun's most ruthless planet‑harvesting move yet.
To prevent Fang Sihai or Li Daoyuan from taking them.
As for the Martial Cultivators on the planets, he could only explain to them later, slowly.
In the entire Four‑Directions Star System, under Ye Liuyun and Fang Sihai's full‑scale harvesting, the number of planets rapidly dwindled.
From a few planets away, Ye Liuyun saw Fang Sihai from afar, recognized their Divine Soul Powers were comparable, and thus began accelerating the consumption of Divine Soul Power to boost himself as much as possible.
He also kept his eyes on Fang Sihai to prevent his escape.
He couldn't figure out why Fang Sihai hadn't fled yet.
Until he met Fang Sihai on the last planet, he finally understood what Fang Sihai's scheme was.
"With my Divine Soul Power, you can't kill me that easily! There's no need for us to fight to mutual ruin.
Better we cooperate.
We now have people and resources; that's enough to stand toe‑to‑toe with Li Daoyuan!"
Fang Sihai also voiced his thoughts.
Ye Liuyun smiled and nodded: "Your idea is indeed good, but it's a pity…"
"Pity what?
Do you think the profit is insufficient?"
Fang Sihai asked, puzzled.
Ye Liuyun shook his head, then decisively employed Time Power, striking at Fang Sihai.
He knew Fang Sihai would certainly not agree to his request.
Since they would eventually clash, it was better to strike first.
He had long observed Fang Sihai's strength with his Golden Pupil.
Directly fighting him would be no match, but after using Time Power and then a Spiritual Soul Attack, victory was assured.
Though Time Power couldn't block Fang Sihai's mighty Divine Soul,
his Physical Body could not escape Time Power's control; with only his Soul remaining, he was much easier to handle.
"Is this… Time Power?"
After Fang Sihai's Physical Body was frozen, his Soul was also astonished.
Seeing Ye Liuyun's Soul rush toward him, he instantly understood he would fall into Ye Liuyun's hands.
His Physical Body's advantage had been limited by Ye Liuyun's Time Power; his Soul was weaker than Ye Liuyun's and lacked Nether Ghost Fire, thunder and Buddha‑Demon power, so he was certainly no match for Ye Liuyun.
Fang Sihai's Sea of Consciousness had no defensive measures.
He actually hoped others would attack his Sea of Consciousness so he could devour Souls, just like Ye Liuyun, never defending his Sea.
Unfortunately, Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness contained the Ten Thousand Gods Command, which he lacked.
Ultimately his Soul was forcibly marked with a Slave Seal by Ye Liuyun, becoming a Kuailei controlled by Ye Liuyun.
Fang Sihai was still puzzled why Ye Liuyun didn't simply devour his Divine Soul Power but chose to control him.
"Keeping you has its use; it can deter Li Daoyuan, drawing his attention to you, facilitating my moves.
Otherwise I'd just kill you outright!
Hand over all the planets you've harvested within the Space World, and also that Dragon Soul Valley Secret Realm!"
Ye Liuyun explained why he didn't devour his Soul and then directly gave him an order.
Fang Sihai was extremely depressed at that moment.
He hadn't expected his strong Divine Soul Power to still be controlled by another.
"What's so strange! There are mountains beyond mountains, people beyond people! You're too arrogant, unaware that in this universe countless strong ones exist, lacking reverence!"
Ye Liuyun even lectured him.
In fact, he kept reminding himself to stay vigilant, lest he be ambushed by strong ones with special skills.
Fang Sihai could only obey, handing the Dragon Soul Valley Secret Realm to Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun also used Soul Search to learn some mysteries of the Dragon Soul Valley.
Inside lay thousands of true dragons, their Divine Soul Power abundant.
Yet Fang Sihai, after countless attempts, had only harvested a single Dragon Soul.
But a single Dragon Soul made his Soul so strong; if thousands could be harvested…
Ye Liuyun could not even imagine.
Dragon Soul Valley also indeed has treasures obtained by the Dragon Clan.
But compared to the value of those Dragon Souls, those treasures are not worth much.
Ye Liuyun excitedly told this news to Long Nv and the others, letting them condense their souls and prepare to enter Dragon Soul Valley.
He then continued to transfer all those planets previously collected by Fang Sihai into his own Space World.
Many of these planets' primordial powers have not yet been refined by Fang Sihai.
Fang Sihai could only sigh in his heart, realizing that all his efforts were merely making wedding clothes for Ye Liuyun.
After collecting these planets, Ye Liuyun also needs time to fuse their primordial powers together.
So they rested where they were, and Ye Liuyun returned to the Space World of his clone to train.
He also takes a soul-condensing pill every day, continually condensing his own soul.
Long Nv and the others also continually condense their souls, preparing to enter Dragon Soul Valley.
On the planet where Ye Liuyun resides, Fang Sihai, Li Kuo and others gathered all the martial cultivators together, leaving over ten thousand people, all with the strength of Sevenfold Sovereign or above.
Ye Liuyun handed these people over to Ye Tiandao, letting her make the selection.
Those who are weak in strength or lacking in resolve are eliminated and handed over to Chi Lian to absorb bloodline.
Ye Liuyun, his clone, Long Nv, Lei Ming, and the Nine-headed Demon Dragon then devour souls to increase their Divine Soul Power.
Finally, over three thousand were eliminated in the escape, allowing Ye Liuyun and others' bloodline power and Divine Soul Power to increase considerably.
Afterwards, Ye Liuyun and the others spent some time consolidating various powers, before he led Long Nv, Lei Ming, and the Nine-headed Demon Dragon into Dragon Soul Valley.
The clone then guarded the original position with the Black Tiger, Black Mountain, Liao Tianyang, and the Demon Race army, lest Li Dao yuan make a move here.
