Chapter 3327: Self‑Inflicted

Ye Liuyun then began refining various Five Elements spirit demons, swallowing golden juice fruit, iron dragon fruit, golden bone grass and other genius earth treasures, refining diamond vine, iron pear wood and other high‑grade body‑refining materials; the strength of his physical body increased each day.

His physical body was already strong, and after this refining it became even invincible. When he went back to Zhan Tai to spar, no matter what kind of opponent the device spirit crafted, they could not break through his body.

The device spirit at Zhan Tai estimated that his body had already reached the second stage of Taixu, but Ye Liuyun was not satisfied; he began sparring with two of his clones, even slashing each other with blade intent to temper his body.

After two months of body refining, he and his clones could no longer pierce each other's bodies with blade intent, so they infused Heaven and Earth Power into the blade intent and continued to slash at each other.

In the end, he even fought the Golden Dragon Puppet. Though he could do nothing with that Golden Dragon Puppet, the puppet could not harm him for a while.

At that moment, Leng Qianyu also showed signs of breakthrough. Ye Liuyun halted his warship, letting him break through in the starry sky, watching him resist the thunder tribulation.

Leng Qianyu's overall strength was not weak, and his Spatial Power was relatively strong, so during the breakthrough he didn't need any treasures. At the initial thunder tribulation, he used Spatial Power alone to block almost all of it.

When the Blood Thunder came, he employed Heaven and Earth Power, blocking the first six blasts; for the last three blasts he gave his all, using Zhen Yuan Gong Ji, and smoothly passed the heavenly tribulation. M..

"Thank you, Master, I will go ahead now!"

After his breakthrough, Leng Qianyu also greeted Ye Liuyun before flying off into the Golden Light.

He was truly grateful to Ye Liuyun. Without the cultivation method Ye Liuyun gave him, he could not have broken through his realm so quickly.

As for the Slave Seal Ye Liuyun implanted on him, it normally does not control him and has no effect on him.

Before his breakthrough, Leng Qianyu had already packed everything he needed into the Space World, and he did not wear a Storage Ring during the breakthrough. So his departure was thorough, leaving nothing behind.

Ye Liuyun and his clones then used Golden Light to cleanse their bodies, expelling the impurities absorbed from the refining resources during this period.

However, after seeing the person leave, he still felt a bit forlorn.

Afterwards, he continued absorbing various resources to refine his body, enhancing his physical form, and could also use borrowed light to cleanse internal impurities while others were breaking through.

Next, Cui Daoran, two Xuanwu ferocious beasts, Luo Yu's Demon Wolf, and the two Demon Dragons of Mo Yang Mo Hai all departed in succession.

Before leaving, Mo Yang Mo Hai told Ye Liuyun that if they meet again, they would still recognize Ye Liuyun as their master.

Ye Liuyun felt gratified, but he still advised them: "It's enough that you have this intention. I never enslave anyone; when the time comes we can sign an equal contract for convenient communication!"

However, the two insisted on recognizing Ye Liuyun as their master, believing he is trustworthy and reliable.

Ye Liuyun no longer forced them; he didn't know the situation over there, and saying anything now was useless—everything would be dealt with after they left.

After these people left one after another, Ye Liuyun temporarily halted body refining and began enhancing his Soul, Divine Core, Spatial Power, and Heaven and Earth Power.

The guards around him were of little use now that he was stronger and no longer feared ambushes, so he gave the remaining twenty‑plus guards to Yu Xiaofeng for allocation.

Moreover, the more than thirty apex‑realm ferocious beasts he had brought out from Hong Tian Secret Realm were also sufficiently secure.

Thus, after reuniting with Jiang Yuanhai, Ye Liuyun had Yu Xiaofeng lead the Demon Race army and the Spearhead Brigade on an expedition. During this period the Spearhead Brigade had spent most of its time training and now needed to go out to fight.

His black‑armored elite soldiers remained in his Space World. He plans to take this force to the Taixu World, but the Taixu Qi Refinement Manual cannot be given to them yet, lest they breakthrough early. He will wait until they reach the Taixu World before passing the cultivation method to them.

Ye Tiandao's female soldiers are the same,

They also are the power Ye Liuyun reserved for himself and everyone after arriving in the Taixu World. He has not yet passed the Taixu Qi Refinement Manual to them.

Jiang Yuanhai's army expanded to five hundred thousand, and during battles captured many Reinforcement Troops. Ye Liuyun had Xiao Heng and Li Zhaoyuan go out to replenish troops and form two hundred‑thousand‑person armies, then let them obtain resources on their own.

But just before the various armies set out, Jiang Yuanhai reported to Ye Liuyun that the Huo Yin Star System had been attacked and the Fire Seal Dynasty was on the brink of collapse.

Jiang Yuanhai's original three hundred thousand troops included many Imperial Guard of the Fire Seal Dynasty; some carried Transmission Talismans linked to their families, so they had recently received rescue requests from the dynasty.

Some received detailed messages stating that the Fire Seal Dynasty had originally hired a Demon Race army to deal with Ye Liuyun. However, that Demon army would not reach the Huo Yin Star System until two months after they set out.

When they arrived, they did not engage in battle but occupied a planet, treating its humans as food. The Fire Seal Dynasty endured, with some believing that if they asked for help, a price must be paid.

However, the experts the Fire Seal Dynasty sent out searched everywhere for Ye Liuyun but could not find any trace. After waiting for a while, the Demon army could no longer restrain itself, revealed its true nature, and began attacking human martial cultivators everywhere to obtain food and cultivation resources.

The Fire Seal Dynasty also could not deal with this Demon army. Moreover, some royal members tolerated the demons, believing Ye Liuyun to be the real threat, while the demons merely sought food.

Thus the Fire Seal Dynasty initially did nothing, allowing the Demon army to attack at will.

The demons showed no restraint; wherever they went, no humans or livestock were left. By the time the Fire Seal Dynasty regained its senses, half of its territory had already fallen to the demons, and a large number of martial cultivators had been wiped out. They no longer had the strength to resist and were continually driven back.

The Demon army is now close to reaching the Royal City. Therefore the Fire Seal Dynasty is trying every method to contact all martial cultivators abroad to return for reinforcement.

"Now that's truly self‑inflicted!"

Ye Liuyun heard this and didn't know what to say.

However, Jiang Yuanhai and the soldiers from the Huo Yin Star System did not want the system destroyed by demons. Yu Xiaofeng, Xiao Heng and Li Zhaoyuan's armies also needed combat training, so Ye Liuyun agreed to dispatch the forces to the Huo Yin Star System.

He made it clear that it was not to rescue the Fire Seal Dynasty, but to annihilate both the dynasty and the Demon army, fully occupying the Huo Yin Star System.

As for arranging the battles, Ye Liuyun left all of that to Yu Xiaofeng, while he remained in the Space World to cultivate.
