Chapter 3493: Demonstrating with Blood

Ye Liuyun actually wants this effect. The first battle must make the Death Legion and the Demon Race see enough blood to awaken the killing intent in their hearts.

He knows these soldiers too well. He knows that only when they fear no death and are stimulated by blood can they unleash astonishing power.

As for the Martial Cultivators inside the city, to him they are a loose sand. The Death Legion has fought countless battles of all sizes in the Divine Realm; they simply do not regard such opponents.

Ye Liuyun intends to use this first battle to let the Death Legion regain that momentum, seize the high ground within the army, so that in later fights against other forces they can naturally overwhelm the enemy in morale.

Ye Liuyun charges to the front, suddenly exuding rolling Demon Qi, and the war‑god armor then manifests.

"Nine‑Head Demon Dragon!"

He summons, and the Nine‑Head Demon Dragon instantly materializes its true form, its massive body rushing beneath Ye Liuyun, voluntarily becoming his mount. Biquku

Then the Monster Beasts also each reveal their true forms, their huge bodies charging ahead of the Demon Race soldiers.

Liao Yaotian and the others are even more shocked, not expecting Ye Liuyun to have so many Monster Beasts at his side.

"Zei Mao, fan them a few times first, then go attend to your own business!"

Ye Liuyun first gives the Demon Lion a command.

"Alright!"

The Demon Lion replies with a nod, a huge lion striped black and white, exuding Demon Qi, charges out, spitting a wind‑thunder fan from its mouth toward the city.

In an instant, sand and stone fly within the city, thunder and lightning roar, and the entire city plunges into darkness.

From the Death Legion soldiers forming ranks to the shouts of battle, the Chengzhu Fu has already taken notice. However, in this kind of city there are no regular soldiers; all are the City Lord's guards.

The City Lord immediately leads his guards to assist in defense, and just as they reach the city wall they are hit by the Demon Lion's wind‑thunder fan attack. Strips of lightning strike, instantly slaying a large number of the guards on the wall.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun's Guardian God Seal materializes behind him, like a hundred‑zhang giant, also holding a Demon Slaying Sword, mirroring Ye Liuyun's movements exactly.

"Open for me!"

Ye Liuyun lets out a roar and swings Yi Dao with full force. The blade intent of his Yi Dao merges with that of the Guardian God Seal, slashing straight toward the city gate.

All his Divine Core, Heaven and Earth Power, together with the Guardian God Seal's strength, pierce the void and strike the city gate; with a 'Boom', the gate that had just been closed is cleaved open by his Yi Dao.

The entire city gate is torn into pieces; even the wall above the gate collapses.

Immediately, Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil flashes, a Golden Crow Fire Spirit, glowing golden‑red, rushes forward to scorch the city wall. Then, on both sides, the Vermilion Bird and Qiong Qi transform into two clusters of scarlet flame, following the blaze.

"All together, block these flames!" the City Lord continues to command the guards, but when the Golden Crow Fire Spirit approaches them, they realize such a fire spirit is beyond their ability to resist.

The guards on the wall, along with the City Lord, turn to ash the moment the Golden Crow Fire Spirit surges over them.

Everyone inside the city has been alarmed, but before they can grasp what's happening, most are just staring dumbfounded at the spectacle. x.

At this moment, Ye Liuyun's Guardian God Seal acts again; in its other hand, which holds no sword, five‑colored lightning flashes. He then waves his hand, hurling that thunder spirit toward the city.

The Lei Ming‑incarnated Thunder Dragon Beast lets out a roar, its body flashing five‑colored lightning, and charges forward. She knows how strong Ye Liuyun's thunder spirit power is, so she has no fear of danger.

"Boom, crack!"

The muffled thunder and the clashing of lightning create a chaotic din.

Ye Liuyun's five‑colored thunder source's destructive power surpasses that of the Golden Crow Fire Spirit. Immediately, he envelops the entire city with thunder and lightning, unleashing countless thunder sources for indiscriminate attacks.

At this point, Ye Liuyun also withdraws the Golden Crow Fire Spirit. The guards on the wall have already been incinerated, so that's enough. If the flames continued, the soldiers would have no opponents.

The thunder spirit likewise, in a breath's time, slaughters tens of thousands of Martial Cultivators inside the city, then is immediately recalled by Ye Liuyun, giving the impression that his reserves are depleted, though in fact he is conserving strength.

With that single blaze and thunder strike, all the Martial Cultivators inside the city are terrified, daring not to fight them any longer, fleeing in panic and abandoning the city.

"Kill!"

Ye Liuyun, leading Peng Lie's strong Martial Cultivators, charges into the city at this moment. The city's Martial Cultivators, seeing their level, no longer dare to fight and scatter to avoid them.

"You occupy the Chengzhu Fu and send half of your men to eliminate the third‑ and fourth‑realm Martial Cultivators inside the city!" Ye Liuyun immediately assigns this task to Peng Lie's forces.

He, meanwhile, leads the Monster Beasts and the Demon Race army to continue the onslaught. As soon as the Demon Race army enters the city, they disperse into groups of nine, beginning to slay Martial Cultivators.

Subsequently, Ye Tiandao leads the Death Legion into the city as well. Their female soldiers go first, clearing the way with Qingfeng Wolves and heavy crossbows; Bloodline Power erupts, suppressing the Martial Cultivators' realms, and they charge straight ahead.

Then the soldiers follow, cutting through to the opposite side of the city without lingering in battle. Only then do they coordinate with the Demon Race army, turning to strike toward the center.

Ye Liuyun also leads the Monster Beasts, carving a path through the entire city, then follows the Death Legion, turning back to strike together.

In the preceding combat, Chen Yueying, Liao Yaotian and the others had no chance to act, merely trailing behind. Nonetheless, they witnessed Ye Liuyun's strength and the ferocity of this massive army.

The Death Legion, upon seeing blood, instantly regains its killing intent; each cold gaze like a grim reaper, they strike mercilessly with flawless coordination. Even Second Realm Martial Cultivators cannot withstand a single encounter before them.

The Metal Puppets are also deployed. Once clad in armor and armed, they can contend with First‑realm Martial Cultivators, and they can use rapid heavy‑crossbow volleys to support the soldiers' attacks.

A single heavy‑crossbow shot poses little threat to Taixu‑realm Martial Cultivators. However, rapid fire can still suppress Martial Cultivators, serving to disrupt their fighting.

The strongmen beside Ye Liuyun and Ye Tiandao are dedicated to eliminating high‑realm Martial Cultivators.

The Monster Beasts also pair up; when confronting third‑ and fourth‑realm Martial Cultivators, they instantly kill them with Black and White Light or treasures, without lingering. Only against First‑ or Second‑realm Martial Cultivators do they engage in a fierce bout for fun.

The Monster Beasts, having followed Ye Liuyun for a long time, know when they can fight freely and when they must consider the army's progress, never acting recklessly at such moments.

Even the newly joined Xiong Tianchuan follows obediently behind; otherwise Lei Ming and the others would truly deal with him.

Even Xiong Tianchuan, who had just joined, honestly followed behind them; otherwise, Lei Ming and the others would really give him a beating.
