Chapter 3282: All-Out Effort

Qiong Qi wasn't greedy after all; he thought what he had taken was already enough. Moreover, he had also taken a Xingqiu, enough for him to raise his realm, and he could even allot a good share to the Vermilion Bird.

Thus Ye Liuyun didn't hesitate; he poured all the Fire Flame Power absorbed by the Nine‑Dragon Swallowing Heaven Tripod into the sun.

Although the fire source and Fire Flame Power he absorbed were not much, that fire source was so powerful that even a single strand had considerable force. This sun of his had gone a long time without energy replenishment, and much of the Fire Flame Power came from the Mortal Realm.

Ye Liuyun injected those Fire Flame Power at once, instantly causing the sun's Fire Flame Power to multiply several times, making his Space World even brighter and scarlet.

He did not absorb these powers himself. If he took in such strong yang fire power, the balance of his yin‑yang fire would be broken.

The Fire Seal Dynasty has two kinds of fire spirits, one of which is likely the Golden Crow. He can only absorb it when that Golden Crow Fire Spirit appears. Moreover, the other fire spirit is the Mysterious Dark Azure Fire.

Ye Liuyun thought it best to absorb both kinds of fire at once, balancing and enhancing the power of his two fire types.

He now knows the Godslaying Bow can blast fire spirits, so he's not in a hurry. When the Fire Seal Dynasty sends another fire spirit to deal with him, he can absorb it later.

Qiong Qi and the Vermilion Bird, after learning the Godslaying Bow's great power, also felt more at ease absorbing Fire Flame Power. The stronger Ye Liuyun becomes, the safer they are.

Ye Liuyun immediately found a spacious spot as the army's camp, released the forty‑thousand troops and the 150,000 Death Legion, and led them to sweep the entire Xing Xi.

He also took the Monster Beast and the women, and fought joyfully for about ten days. He guessed the Fire Seal Dynasty's strong ones were about to arrive, so he gathered the Monster Beast and the women, returned to the garrison camp, and set up a big tent with a Defense Array for cultivation.

He placed the 150 strong ones around him in the garrison camp to serve as guards.

Now the army also includes many soldiers of the Ninth Realm; Yuan Hao and other Leaders have Ninth Layer Summit ferocious beasts guarding them, as well as fire‑power war chariots. Ye Liuyun simply let them spar on their own. He reckoned that even if the Dynasty sent strong ones, they wouldn't bother the ordinary soldiers.

He sent those soldiers away, also to prevent them from being caught up when strong ones arrive.

"I don't know if a prince will come to die this time! If I kill all the Fire Seal Dynasty's princes, Jiang Yuantang would go mad!"

Ye Liuyun was still wondering whether any prince would dare to lead a squad to kill him this time.

Now only the two princes Jiang Yuntian and Jiang Yunyang remain. He guessed Jiang Yuntian's bloodline hadn't recovered yet, so Jiang Yunyang would be sent. But whoever comes, the outcome will be the same.

He immediately began cultivation together with his clone.

He now knows the Dynasty also has Martial Cultivators with powerful Soul and strong Spatial Power, so he must focus on boosting these two aspects: first continue devouring Dragon Soul, then condense it, while sparring with the Spatial‑Power‑strong Martial Cultivator to raise his Spatial Power.

So he doesn't dare to take excessive risks in sparring now, lest injury prevent him from handling the upcoming danger.

Jiang Yuantang and Jiang Yuntian, when the Fire Phoenix fire spirit was extinguished, had already guessed that Ye Liuyun was behind it.

"Father King, we can't let him continue; we must go all out against him, otherwise his strength will keep growing," Jiang Yuntian reminded Jiang Yuantang.

So it was their underestimation before that allowed Ye Liuyun to become this strong.

Now Ye Liuyun's massive army is beyond their ability to block. Moreover, the strong ones around Ye Liuyun keep increasing; Jiang Yuanhao, the Fire Phoenix fire spirit, and others have been eliminated in succession, which is enough to draw their attention.

"Hmm!" Jiang Yuantang hadn't expected Jiang Yuanhao and the Fire Phoenix fire spirit could be taken down by Ye Liuyun.

So he had previously been speculating what method Ye Liuyun used to eliminate those two strong ones.

After Jiang Yuntian's reminder, he felt that regardless of Ye Liuyun's method, he should now deal a heavy blow to Ye Liuyun.

So even if he accidentally kills Ye Liuyun, he will act; at worst he can target those around him to gather information on the technique.

He had already dispatched the Martial Cultivator with strong Divine Soul Power and strong Spatial Power, which he thought sufficient. Now, to be safe, he immediately sent the two guarding fire spirits as well.

Ye Liuyun waited several days in the army's camp tent, yet saw no Flying Boat approaching this Xing Xi.

So the entire Xing Xi is being swept by the massive army; a Flying Boat daring to show up now must be a strong one sent by the Dynasty.

"Looks like they've changed tactics this time!"

Ye Liuyun thought to himself that the Divine Sense probe had become more meticulous.

So suddenly, he noticed a Divine Sense sweep passing by, rather weak; if his Divine Sense weren't strong, he might not have detected such a subtle probe.

"The Divine Soul Power behind this probe isn't weak. Since I detected it, it can't be that powerful Soul Cultivator. It seems the Dynasty's strong ones have arrived, but this person certainly isn't that Soul Cultivator! Likely they sent someone else to test the waters first."

He was thinking, when the two Martial Cultivator strong ones guarding him outside suddenly sent Transmission Voices: one reported a Divine Sense probe, the other said they detected spatial fluctuations outside the camp, likely a Spatial Power master.

So Ye Liuyun immediately thought it might be the Martial Cultivator with strong Spatial Power.

"Scatter and search!"

Ye Liuyun instantly sent Transmission Voices to the outer guards, ordering them to disperse and search outward, lest the battle later involve them. At the same time, he released some poison gas inside the big tent, holding it in reserve, waiting for the Martial Cultivator to reveal himself.

So if it's the Spatial‑Power‑strong Martial Cultivator, he could very well slip into the big tent to seize him.

The Fire Seal Dynasty, wanting to seize the technique, would surely try to capture him first, not directly use Spatial Power to attack his big tent.

While his outer guards were scattered searching, inside his big tent suddenly appeared a middle‑aged Martial Cultivator.

"Huh? How did he get in?"

Ye Liuyun wore a startled expression. He hadn't even noticed the spatial fluctuation caused by that person.

But then the space around him was sealed, immobilizing him.

At the same time, a powerful Soul surged into the big tent, penetrating his Sea of Consciousness.

The Soul's size was larger than both of Ye Liuyun's, and it's unclear how long that Martial Cultivator had cultivated to reach this level. Just by its appearance, the Soul seemed centuries old.

Then, not far outside the camp, a Martial Cultivator suddenly "pfft" coughed up blood, struck by the Soul's backlash.

And that sound was immediately heard by some searching guard strong ones, who pursued and killed him.
