Chapter 3008: Post‑War Settlement
The corpses on the battlefield were also sorted out and given to the Magic Vine. Ye Liuyun intends to devote all effort to cultivating the Magic Vine first, to cope with the dangers of the Wasteland Sea World.
Over ten million Foreign Tribe corpses, even though many were blown apart by firepower battle tanks, the Primordial Core remains, and together with Ye Liuyun's Foreign Tribe army and the Demon Race dead bodies, the Magic Vine is once again the biggest winner.
According to his estimate, these resources can let him break through to the realm of Guiyi 189th Layer. So the Magic Vine, taking these corpses, rushed into the First Clone's Space World and sucked them up.
It absorbs for a while, then sleeps for a while. Ye Liuyun also lets it focus on cultivation, and will not have it come out to fight for the time being.
Ye Liuyun and Yu Xiaofeng here also reclaimed the equipment of the ancient demons and the Demon Race army. Ye Liuyun kept their gear for contingencies. The equipment of the disbanded Human Race army was collected by Yu Xiaofeng and the other army Leaders.
Afterwards, Yu Xiaofeng and the others split from Ye Liuyun and headed straight to explore other star systems.
Ye Liuyun used the Black Tower to teleport back to the Second Clone's Space World. Then he manifested and pulled both clones into the Space World.
During his absence, neither of the two pirate gangs resumed fighting; their fleets are now not far from the Fire Seal Star System. All the pirates have been quietly cultivating, and Ye Liuyun hasn't been delayed by anything.
After Ye Liuyun solved the big trouble of the Foreign Tribe, his mood relaxed considerably, allowing him to focus on handling the crisis of the Wasteland Sea World.
Ye Liuyun also went out for a stroll, greeted Liu Yan, and used his Golden Pupil to scout the situation of the Fire Seal Star System.
They are still far from the Fire Seal Star System; Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil can only see some bright planets from a distance.
"It seems the planets in the Fire Seal Star System have abundant Primordial Power!"
Ye Liuyun can only see these for now, estimating that the Martial Cultivator strength here is not weak. He often roams various star systems; by observing the brightness of these planets from afar, he can roughly gauge the Martial Cultivator power within.
Ye Liuyun also briefed everyone on the situation, letting them cultivate with peace of mind. During this period, everyone could use the Condensing Essence Technique to refine Mysterious Origin.
Tang Xinyao and others have already solidified their realms to a certain extent, with continuous breakthroughs. However, they are not emerging now, staying within the Clone's Space World to cultivate, and Liu Yan and the others have not noticed their changes.
Ye Liuyun also took this time to thoroughly master the application of the Condensing Essence Technique. This refining method is faster than his use of the Primordial Spirit Secret Technique; although it consumes some Mysterious Origin during the process, his resources are abundant now, so he doesn't mind the cost.
Thus he and the two clones refined Mysterious Origin together, raising their realms to the late stage of Guiyi First Layer. His Spatial Power and Heaven and Earth Power were also greatly enhanced.
He now spars with the Foreign Tribe at Guiyi Fourth Layer with great ease. The realms of those five hundred Foreign Tribe members have also risen to Guiyi Third and Fourth Layers, perfectly matching his sparring. After the Monster Beasts refined some True Essence, they consumed some, and now there are fewer than two hundred left.
After Tang Xinyao and Tang Hao broke through their realms, they wanted to spar with Ye Liuyun to see if they could defeat him.
But they found that although Ye Liuyun's realm hadn't changed much, his strength hadn't lagged at all; a palm strike he delivered carried Heaven and Earth Power that was even stronger.
All their attacks were nullified by the overlapping void and Heaven and Earth Power surrounding him, unable to reach Ye Liuyun at all...
Tang Xinyao and Tang Hao wore embarrassed faces, not expecting that even together they couldn't land a hit on Ye Liuyun.
Finally Tang Xinyao broke the awkwardness, sighing, "Your realm hasn't grown, yet your strength has increased a lot!"
"Indeed, my realm has always been a shortcoming. But now with the Condensing Essence Technique, future improvements should be much faster than before."
Ye Liuyun also felt pleased. Tang Xinyao and Tang Hao are the two Heavenly Hero‑level members of the Tang family; after their realms were raised, they can both challenge Guiyi...
Facing two opponents alone, he still didn't lose, at least showing that his recent Heaven and Earth Power and Spatial Power have indeed increased considerably.
"Your clone's Space World still has Tenfold Speed time acceleration; at this rate of cultivation, you'll soon have no rivals!" Tang Xinyao, thinking of Ye Liuyun's Space World with Tenfold Speed, sighed again.
"Time does give an advantage, but constantly using that time acceleration also affects vitality!" Ye Liuyun remarked casually.
This reminded Tang Xinyao and Tang Hao that Tenfold Speed also makes them age quickly.
So they immediately withdrew from the Clone's Space World back to Ye Liuyun's Space World to cultivate slowly.
At this point they finally understood why the women around Ye Liuyun would rather have slower realm advancement than go to the Clone's Space World to cultivate; only those with low realms occasionally use time acceleration, likely fearing they would age too fast.
Hence, from now on Tang Xinyao and the others rarely use time acceleration, and their cultivation speed has slowed down.
Only Ye Liuyun doesn't mind; at worst he can use more Life Spring Water to compensate. He now has to face the dangers of the Wasteland Sea World and doesn't dare to relax.
According to Zhan Kong and others' speculation, their strength in that Wasteland Sea World is insufficient, so Ye Liuyun feels even more pressured.
The Monster Beasts don't mind; for them, strength improvement is more important, even if it costs a few dozen years. That amount of time is negligible for the Monster Beasts' martial cultivation.
However, Ye Liuyun also worries that the Monster Beasts' relentless pursuit of speed could destabilize their realms, so he let them take a break, taking everyone out for a stroll to relax.
Retired soldiers from the great army were all reassigned back; Ye Liuyun even paid special attention. Most soldiers were recruited by various City Lord offices, causing no major chaos.
Some were also placed by Pei Yong into the few dynasties he founded, joining the Imperial Guard, so that if Ye Liuyun ever needs them, he can summon soldiers immediately.
These soldiers also know this is Ye Liuyun's Space World and dare not act recklessly.
Ye Liuyun also checked the situation inside the Space World and found that Ye Ling managed it orderly, which reassured him greatly.
Ye Liuyun also used Divine Sense to locate his various masters from different eras; seeing each of them doing well, he didn't disturb them, only asked Ye Ling to keep an eye on and protect them. Those who have owed him favors also receive special care.
The Ye Clan, the Sacred Martial Academy and other forces are also developing well now, requiring little of his attention. He also stays out of sight to avoid affecting their own development and preventing them from over‑relying on his aid.
