Chapter 3297: Adjusting Tactics

Fortunately, there were no local Martial Cultivators commanding them; otherwise we'd truly have to fight a big battle.

The First Clone also breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, two golden dragon Puppet Beasts fighting thousands of higher‑level ferocious beasts, even if they could win, would consume terrifying amounts of energy.

He didn't dare to dismiss the golden dragon Puppet Beasts, so he let them circle around him for protection, and he immediately began communicating with the Primordial Power.

At first, the planet's Primordial Power ignored the First Clone.

But he commanded the golden dragons to strike directly, exposing the Primordial Power, and threatened it; when it refused to be taken, he ripped it out to absorb and refine it.

In the end, the threat worked; the Primordial Power immediately agreed to be taken, and the First Clone smoothly transferred it into the Space World.

When the planet was taken, all the ferocious beasts on it, none of which wanted to leave, were taken together with the planet into the Space World.

"Go communicate with that Primordial Power, have it transfer one percent of Bloodline Power to me; I'll give it an Archaic World Primordial Power as compensation, and see if it agrees."

The First Clone promptly summoned the Primordial Spirit Demon to communicate with that Primordial Power, then returned immediately to avoid being discovered and besieged by other planets.

After returning, he first transferred the Death Legion into the Space World, sending them to that planet to search for resources. Monster Beasts and the women were also dispatched there by Ye Liuyun.

The ferocious beasts on that planet, within his Space World, must obey his command. He restrains them from attacking humans, and lets the soldiers hunt the rest themselves.

Later, the First Clone again transferred the Demon Race army into the Space World, letting them cultivate first, and when the next planet is taken, they'll be sent to boost their Bloodline Power.

The battlefield combat was nearing its end, and the Second Clone returned first, pulling Li Zhaoyuan's main army into the Space World in preparation for withdrawal.

Their battle incurred relatively heavy losses; the main army needs a period of rest before fighting again.

The tribal and Martial Cultivator Bloodline Power here are indeed formidable. Xiao Heng's army suffered nearly twenty thousand casualties. Cui Daoran's black‑armored corps had over five thousand killed by the reinforcements.

Soldiers with strong Spatial Power suffered almost half casualties. Even the Kuailei were destroyed, over three hundred of them.

When the fighting ended, the soldiers immediately began cleaning the battlefield, retrieving warships and other equipment, then all were pulled into the Space World. Ye Liuyun led them all away, vanishing into Xingkong.

The tribal Martial Cultivators on neighboring planets hadn't expected a planet to be taken so quickly. They never saw the two golden dragons released when the First Clone seized the planet.

But even if they tried to organize a rescue, it was too late. Their troops and ferocious beasts hadn't finished gathering when Ye Liuyun and his group had already vanished.

Ye Liuyun ran back for several days in one breath, randomly found a planet, and finally released the army, allowing them to rest and reorganize.

The ferocious beasts obtained from cleaning the battlefield were given to Xiao Heng's army, the corpses to the Demon Race army, so they could use those resources to boost some Bloodline Power.

The clones' specially hunted gold‑eyed hunting leopards, Ye Liuyun and the clones each kept a pair of Golden Pupils to refine, strengthening their own Golden Pupils, while the rest were given to the Leaders for refinement.

The destroyed Kuailei were sent back to the artificers, who were busy forging more Kuailei.

Yu Xiaofeng led the Leaders, reorganizing the troops while debriefing. This battle incurred considerable losses; they hadn't suffered so heavily in a long time.

"If we keep fighting like this, we'll be at a huge disadvantage; our numbers will dwindle, and soon we won't be able to launch offensives."

Some Leaders suggested using a larger Formation Plate; its defense would be stronger, and several soldiers could occupy the same plate, allowing archers to fire while others wield swords or spears, coordinating for better kill efficiency.

Ye Liuyun checked and found that half of the guards he sent with strong Spatial Power had been eliminated. The soldiers in the army are now focusing on boosting Spatial Power, preparing for the next battle.

Ye Liuyun dispatched the remaining strong Spatial Power guards to the Black‑Armored Elite Corps and Xiao Heng's army to instruct the soldiers.

Within the Space World, the Primordial Spirit Demon of the First Clone finally achieved a great feat, persuading that planet's Primordial Power to grant the First Clone one percent Bloodline Power, then compensating it with an Archaic World Primordial Power.

After pondering for a while, Yu Xiaofeng asked Ye Liuyun directly: "No matter how we boost combat power, our army lacks numerical advantage. Moreover, the surrounding planets will send reinforcements. Could we use Madam Wu's war horn to launch a surprise attack on them?"

Ye Liuyun heard this and slapped his thigh: "Exactly, let the ferocious beasts attack the tribal Martial Cultivators; why didn't I think of that?"

Yu Xiaofeng laughed: "I just thought of it too. No need to rush; the main army also needs a rest this time. We'll cultivate first, then after a surprise strike on a planet, intercept a few reinforcements, and together capture more planets."

"Good!" Ye Liuyun immediately agreed, returning to first strengthen the Golden Pupils, condense Bloodline Power, and prepare for the next battle.

The First Clone first went to receive the one percent Bloodline Power transferred from that planet. He could no longer absorb additional Bloodline Power, but the Primordial Power's Bloodline Power was different, forcefully poured into his veins.

This forced infusion startled the First Clone considerably; the massive, pure, powerful Bloodline Power nearly burst his own veins.

The Clone felt tearful yet helpless. These Bloodline Powers must be gradually integrated by him. He estimated that such strong Bloodline Power would take at least a year or two to fully refine.

But when he tried to absorb and refine them, he found the Bloodline Power transmitted by the Primordial Power had no attributes; he quickly assimilated those Bloodline Powers.

"At this rate, one or two months is enough to complete the refinement. Moreover, such pure Bloodline Power needs no further purification."

The First Clone was overjoyed, instantly accelerating the refinement within the Space World. The newly formed Bloodline Power radiated a golden‑red glow, and the Bloodline Pressure he emitted during cultivation made even Ye Liuyun reluctant to approach closely.

Monster Beasts and the women, together with the Death Legion, scoured the planet for Bloodline cultivation resources. The ferocious beasts had been ordered not to attack them, so they faced little danger.

However, the resources for cultivating Bloodline here are abundantly plentiful, covering the ground; they need not search, only choose which resources to use for faster enhancement.

These people quickly found suitable resources and began cultivating.
