Chapter 3108: Demon Race Emergence

Ye Liuyun let Heishan first lead the Ancient Demon Legion for a while, also providing a security guarantee for the Demon Race Legion.

Heishan then took the opportunity to request personnel from Ye Liuyun, hoping to bring Wen Yuan and Feng Qiong, the two Foreign Tribe members, into his own army.

The remaining five hundred Foreign Tribe members have been used by everyone as sparring partners, and they have now all been exhausted.

However, Wen Yuan and Feng Qiong each have special abilities, and their combat power is not high, so they were kept.

These two have also been confined within the Second Clone's Space World, undergoing purification on a Xingqiu imbued with Buddha Light Power; their evil auras have now been removed.

Wen Yuan's formation no longer has an advantage in the Huo Yin Star System, and Feng Qiong's thunder‑fire skill is also costly; Ye Liuyun now rarely employs either of them, so he agreed.

Before releasing them, he again checked the slave seals in their Sea of Consciousness; after confirming they were fine, he let Heishan take them away.

Thus the three‑thousand‑strong Demon Race Legion and the three‑thousand‑strong Ancient Demon Legion temporarily merged into one force, beginning a sweep across the Duqiao Star System.

Ye Liuyun, however, led Tang Xinyao's group and some women nearby who wished to join the fight, moving in opposite direction to the Demon Race army. He also had Magic Vine guard them, clearing the battlefield with them, thereby strengthening the Magic Vine.

The monster beasts are currently absorbing and refining resources to raise their realms, and Ye Liuyun does not disturb them for now. He also sent some previously stockpiled Foreign Tribe Three‑Eyed to Bai Hu, so after refining the Golden Pupil he can also refine some Foreign Tribe Three‑Eyed, giving him an extra trump card for survival.

Ye Liuyun and his two clones focus on cultivation, occasionally venturing out to kill bandits for practice; both clones strive to devour Divine Soul Power, and also use Soul Sealing Pearls to accumulate Divine Soul Power, intending to give Shi Yuan a boost to his Divine Soul Power.

The Duqiao Star System has been mired in chaos during this period. The leaders—captains, deputy captains, and commanders—of the two major bandit gangs perished in the Wild Sea, and each planet has erupted into internal strife, each governing itself.

Therefore the suddenly appearing Demon Race army did not attract the whole system's attention; only City Lords on individual planets gathered nearby helpers to oppose the Demon Race army.

Now, at this realm, the Demon Race army no longer employs the previous formation combos; although they value coordination among soldiers, they still prioritize individual combat. Ye Liuyun also makes them focus on honing, prohibiting equipment use.

Moreover, with only a few thousand troops and a low realm, when they encounter cities they are dismissed as small roaming Demon Race groups in the starry sky; even if they capture some cities, no one expects them to sweep the entire Duqiao Star System.

Yet the Demon Race army's strength has risen rapidly. With ample food and cultivation Yuan Dan, and continual battle honing, they also seized various city resources, so there is no obstacle to realm advancement; resources are inexhaustible.

In combat they both attack and devour Divine Soul Power, so the army's Divine Soul Power continuously rises; ordinary Martial Cultivators have no chance to launch Spiritual Soul Attacks against them. Ye Liuyun also taught them simple methods to defend against Spiritual Soul Attacks, letting them cultivate on their own.

Ye Liuyun also does not let them advance rapidly; instead he makes them fight intermittently, focusing on strengthening and training.

As the Demon Race legion's strength grew, it began to split forces with the Ancient Demon Legion, advancing side by side; this not only secures more resources but also allows mutual support. Those Ancient Demon Kuailei were temporarily given to the Demon Race, boosting their attack and defense and safeguarding them.

The women also formed a squad, led by Ye Tiandao, guarded by Magic Vine, comprising Song Girl, Xiao Lan'er, Xiao Yunfang, Meng Qingyin, Li Xinran, Feng Wanru, A Xing, Piao Yun, Lin Feier, Qing Yan, Qin Mengxi—twelve in total—and coordinated with Tang Xinyao's team, focusing on honing and acquiring resources.

Ye Liuyun also lets them regulate the pace of sieges, increasing Divine Soul Power during combat.

Since Illusion Hand and Purple Qilin were killed, the people around him have begun to focus on

cultivating Soul Power. The Duqiao Star System is also their most suitable venue for acquiring resources, and Ye Liuyun often helps them devour Divine Soul Power.

Because the progress of both groups is slow, after a month they have not captured a single planet.

The monster beasts have by now refined most of the resources. Long Nv's realm shows no obvious change, but her physical body has become stronger. Lei Ming has broken through his realm and solidified at Guiyi Fifth Layer Mid Stage, catching up with Long Nv.

After refining the Golden Pupil, Bai Hu also successfully refined the Foreign Tribe Three‑Eyed and can now emit Black and White Light. With this trump card, Ye Liuyun feels much more at ease with him. Zhu Que and Chi Lian have both refined Red Eye, enhancing their illusion attack capability.

The monster beasts overall have broken through to Guiyi Fifth Layer Early Stage. After being cooped up for so many days, they are now eager to fight and can't help but step out.

So Ye Liuyun assigned the Xu Dan Sect and the Chen family's five Martial Cultivator strongmen of Guiyi Ninth Layer Mid Stage to Ye Tiandao, Xiao Yunfang, Meng Qingyin, Feng Wanru, and Lin Feier respectively, tasking them with guarding the women, while he, with his three clones and the monster beasts, went to the Beast World to spar.

The monster beasts' current strength is no longer suitable for fighting in the Duqiao Star System; battling in the Beast World not only provides ample honing but also yields Beast Yuan Dan, storing food and cultivation resources.

Lei Ming, Long Nv, and the other monster beasts who missed the last opportunity are all very eager.

However, after Ye Liuyun used the Black Tower to teleport there, he did not release them all at once; instead he let each person out one by one, matching them with suitable opponents so they could fully test their limits, familiarize themselves with their new powers, and give him insight into the monster beasts' strength.

Lei Ming now, relying on Magic Thunder Roar, can battle Beast World creatures at Guiyi Ninth Layer Early Stage. Long Nv, with that glove, can also fight Guiyi Ninth Layer Early Stage beasts, and if she adds the Crazy Dragon Battle Technique, she could probably contend with Guiyi Ninth Layer Mid Stage beasts.

Xiao Lanbing can use a Soul Sealing Pearl to immobilize Beast World creatures at Guiyi Eighth Layer Late Stage; her Ice Power can directly freeze smaller Guiyi Eighth Layer Early Stage beasts.

Zhu Que's Divine Soul Power was already strong, and now her Red Eye can directly control Guiyi Ninth Layer beasts. After Chi Lian obtained Red Eye, she can only barely handle Guiyi Eighth Layer beasts, but after her realm advanced, her bloodline absorption accelerated; as long as Red Eye can buy her a little time, she can drain Guiyi Eighth Layer beasts.
