Chapter 3377: Return to the Alliance

Ye Liuyun, hearing Lei Ming's remark, was embarrassed all over his face and could only tell Lei Ming not to speak carelessly.

But Tang Xinyao mustered courage and said to Ye Liuyun: "She's right, I truly have confidence in you, I want to follow you! After all, a Martial Cultivator's lifespan is long, I can wait slowly for you to like me!"

"Uh…." Ye Liuyun was left speechless by her blunt words, turned away to attend to other matters, prompting Lei Ming and Long Nv to snicker on the side.

After Ye Liuyun left, Lei Ming gave Tang Xinyao a suggestion: "Go find Liang Xue and Sister Qingcheng; they're persuasive. Either you use force, or give the little brother some medicine; otherwise that wooden little brother, no matter how long you wait, may be useless…"

Although Ye Liuyun walked away, his Divine Sense was strong enough to hear Lei Ming's words, startling him; he thought he must later give Lei Ming a proper lesson, lest she act recklessly again, because in the Taixu World she might cause him a lot of trouble.

About half of the other legion's soldiers had left, most returning to the Fire Seal Star System. Ye Liuyun handed them a Warship outright. For the soldiers heading elsewhere, he allocated Flying Boats of appropriate size according to their numbers.

For everyone who left, Ye Liuyun honored the agreement, dissolved their Divine Soul Contracts, and fully restored their freedom.

After they departed, Yu Xiaofeng took the remaining Leaders and began reorganizing the army, integrating them into the Death Legion, bringing the total to exactly one hundred thousand.

Watching these soldiers who had shared life and death with him, Ye Liuyun felt a flood of emotions.

He doesn't know what the Taixu World is like, nor how many of these soldiers will ultimately survive. But since they trust him so much, he will do his best to carve out a realm for them together in the Taixu World.

Since it works in the Divine Realm, it will work the same in the Taixu World!

Yu Xiaofeng and the other Leaders immediately went to find Tong Xin to study the re‑unification of armor and equipment. After the soldiers completed joint training, they all returned to the Space World to cultivate.

The veteran soldiers of the Death Legion were busy advancing their realms, while the newly incorporated soldiers were cultivating the Taixu Qi Refinement Technique.

Ye Liuyun calmed his mind and, after some contemplation,

stopped exploring farther away and instead changed direction, hurrying back to the Yinhu Xingxi.

He had been away from the Yinhu Xingxi for a long time; after returning this time and reporting, he should also have broken through to the Taixu realm.

On the way, he and his clone took turns to speed the journey, continuing to refine the Dragon Body within the clone's Space World, focusing on strengthening the Physical Body, and often sparring with Monster Beasts, hardening the Physical Body by withstanding various attacks.

Having endured the heavy pressure of the Taixu World, he knows how intense it is, so he specifically had the Formation Master devise a Pressure Formation Plate so that everyone could pre‑adapt to the Taixu World's pressure.

Others adapt gradually, but he and his clone each time set the pressure directly to the Taixu World level, then plunge in and fight it with full effort.

This heavy pressure not only helps him refine his Physical Body, but also aids in condensing Bloodline Power and Divine Core. Even his sword intent, Spatial Power, and Heaven and Earth Power have risen considerably because each time he gives his all.

His Divine Soul Power was further boosted; after refining the previous Ao Feng's soul, he condensed the stored soul source using a Soul‑Refining Cauldron, then again enveloped it with his own soul source for further refinement.

His Thunder Spirit and two Fire Spirits also adapted each time, but they are stronger and adapt much faster than Ye Liuyun.

A month passed outside, and Ye Liuyun finally trained enough to handle this pressure. Yet his condition still requires him to give his all to resist the pressure; he cannot yet fight freely within it.

The Monster Beasts and women had also been cooped up training and wanted to get out, so he let them pilot Flying Boats to continue the journey, while he and his clone returned to the Space World to accelerate Physical Body cultivation.

He can now simultaneously resist the Formation Plate's heavy pressure and absorb the refining Dragon Body, so as long as the Monster Beasts don't call for him, he essentially never leaves the Formation Plate.

The Monster Beasts and women, seeing Ye Liuyun's desperate cultivation, realized he was under great pressure. After all, so many are following Ye Liuyun into the Taixu World; if he encounters danger, those in his Space World will also be in danger.

Therefore the Monster Beasts restrained themselves, not causing trouble elsewhere, as long as no one comes to intercept them,

even if they encounter some star systems they won't stir up trouble, lest they disturb Ye Liuyun's cultivation.

That day, Ye Liuyun finally emerged from the Pressure Formation Plate to catch his breath. He had to stop because he could no longer refine the Dragon Body, and he looked outside for any opportunity.

When everyone saw him emerge, they cheerfully said they wanted to go to the next star system to take a look.

Ye Liuyun learned that the Monster Beasts had been very well‑behaved these days and must be suffocating, so he agreed.

The Monster Beasts had previously endured many battles and lacked no resources, so their realms had already risen to the Unified Ninth Layer. Meanwhile, Chi Lian and Zhu Que had both reached the Ninth Layer Summit.

The soul sources they had previously refined were fully completed, and they were now beginning to strengthen and further refine the earlier soul sources.

Ye Liuyun's own soul sources were all exhausted, and he was ready to go out and see if there was a chance to fully charge the Soul Sealing Pearls.

Ye Tiandao's realm breakthrough reached the Unified Ninth Layer, and the women's realms all rose to the Unified Seventh Eighth Layer. Their cultivation of the Taixu Qi Refinement Technique showed results; their True Essence was far more condensed than that of ordinary Martial Cultivators.

Moreover, they are not eager to breakthrough realms; even within Ye Liuyun's Space World they often spar with ferocious beasts and the Demon Race, so their True Essence remains relatively condensed.

Additionally, now everyone's Bloodline Power and Divine Soul Power have increased, so he feels more at ease when they go out to fight.

Ye Liuyun surveyed the star system ahead; it consisted of some Human Martial Cultivators whose realms were not high, likely posing no danger.

So after their Flying Boat approached, they casually selected a planet to land on.

Upon landing, everyone discovered that the planet's spiritual energy was extremely thin.

"No wonder the locals' realms are low; it's because the spiritual energy here is scarce!" Lei Ming exclaimed.

Ye Liuyun also looked in one direction, where a group of shirtless men ran from a local Martial Cultivator tribe toward them, apparently rushing toward them.

These people hadn't even reached the Zhuanzai Jingjie, so Ye Liuyun naturally wasn't worried about danger, but each of them had bulging muscles, clearly body‑refining Martial Cultivators.

Their tribe wasn't far from Ye Liuyun and his group, and everyone's Divine Sense could detect it.
