Chapter 3607: Flames Engulf the Demon Race

Lei Ming also suggested letting Mo Yang and Mo Hai seize a body to be reborn, but Mo Yang and Mo Hai despised other demon dragons' physical bodies, and both thought staying inside the sword as a weapon spirit was fine, at least they wouldn't have to worry about their identity.

Since they transformed into dragons, wherever they go they are constantly on others' minds, and they've had enough of it; they actually feel staying inside the sword is safer.

They refuse to seize a body, and Ye Liuyun has no recourse but to let them serve as weapon spirits of his war sword.

"Those two demon dragons, later you and the Nine‑Headed Demon Dragon each take one and refine them, consider it revenge for Mo Yang and Mo Hai!" Ye Liuyun only told Lei Ming that, then withdrew the group back into his own camp.

The Demon Race armies on both sides temporarily fell silent, each examining what had occurred.

Li Qianjiao asked Lei Ming and only then learned what had happened.

Ye Liuyun remained silent for a moment, then steadied himself. The two armies are still opposing each other, and the fight must go on.

"Zhuque, Qiong Qi, Yueying, Nine‑Headed Demon Dragon, the rest is up to you—burn those Demon Race to ash!"

Ye Liuyun also went ruthless, beginning his retaliation against the Demon Race.

The few of them immediately stepped forward, ready to set the fire.

"Black Mountain, contract the army!" Ye Liuyun instantly issued the command to Black Mountain.

"Woo!" Black Mountain immediately sounded the assembly horn for the army, and the entire force began to contract backward.

On the Demon Race army's side, the demon god statue was shattered, all demon dragons were slain in battle, morale took a heavy blow, and the army prepared to withdraw.

But then Qiong Qi suddenly produced that broken furnace, aimed its mouth at them, and flames poured out, rushing toward the Demon Race, instantly turning the army's position into a sea of fire.

Zhuque's fire, Chen Yueying's phoenix flame, and the Nine‑Headed Demon Dragon's poisonous violet fire all surged forward together.

Countless flames merged into one, quickly engulfing the opposing Demon Race army.

Some of the Demon Race's strong ones could still break out of the fire sea. Yet Ye Liuyun, bearing the Sealing Demon Tablet, Lei Ming with the Zhenmo Tower, the Nine‑Headed Demon Dragon wielding the World‑Destroying Black Lotus, and Demon Lion with bone‑piercing spikes and other treasures, stood above the fire sea, slaying each one that emerged and exterminating all the strong foes.

The Demon Race sent several elders this time; none fled, and Lei Ming captured one alive, which can be used for Soul Search to gather intelligence on the Demon Race's strength.

As for the ordinary Demon Race soldiers, they all perished in the sea of fire.

Ye Liuyun's two demon swords also took the initiative, coordinating with each other, each slaying a Demon Race elder. Ye Liuyun guessed that the elder had often bullied Mo Yang and Mo Hai, which is why he let the two be so eager to strike him down.

After the flames passed, charred Demon Race corpses littered the ground. Ye Liuyun ordered Qiong Qi and the others to keep pushing forward, letting the Demon Race army follow behind to sweep the battlefield.

The rear Demon Race, seeing the blaze, dared not linger, scattering in all directions, and eventually the entire Xingqiu was occupied by Ye Liuyun. Yet the place was reduced to scorched earth, with nothing left.

Ye Liuyun did not linger, leading his army straight toward the next Xingqiu.

On this Xingqiu, the Demon Race mobilized many water‑type, earth‑type and other fire‑countering individuals to prepare to resist Ye Liuyun's flames.

As it turned out, the one setting the fire this time was Ye Liuyun. He directly unleashed the Golden Crow Fire Spirit, letting it burn at will.

The Golden Crow Fire Spirit seldom encounters such a reckless opportunity; it lunged forward, instantly igniting and melting the entire Xingqiu, turning its land into lava.

This time the burning was even more thorough; after the Golden Crow Fire Spirit passed, there was no need to sweep the battlefield or for anyone else to act—no Demon Race could escape from it.

The Golden Crow Fire Spirit's current power can instantly incinerate even Ninth Realm Demon Race. After a day of blazing, the entire Xingqiu was reduced by a large margin.

The Golden Crow Fire Spirit does not burn in vain; the demons it incinerated…

The energy from those Demon Race bodies became its nourishment.

Ye Liuyun and his party still did not linger, but…

They continued advancing toward the next Xingqiu. This time, the Demon Race had prepared massive forces to resist the flames, but Ye Liuyun altered his strategy, directly summoning the Gate of Hell and releasing the yin soldiers.

Tens of millions of yin soldiers swarmed, slaughtering the Demon Race, frightening some cowardly demons who fled on the spot.

Ye Liuyun did not intercept the fleeing Demon Race, deliberately letting them carry the news back.

Those Demon Race, after returning, described these battles as horrific hell battlefields. Facing tens of millions of Yin Souls, they could not possibly win.

Consequently, Ye Liuyun's subsequent advance proceeded smoothly, with some Demon Race tribes beginning to surrender voluntarily. After all, both sides are Demon Race, so serving under either banner is the same to them.

Hence Ye Liuyun's advance speed was extremely rapid, soon reaching the Demon Race's stronghold.

The front-line Demon Race army, at this point even if they tried to send reinforcements, it was too late. Moreover, they were tangled by border garrisons and could not retreat. Clan Chief Tie Tuo hadn't expected Ye Liuyun's strength to be so overwhelming, that even the demon god statue and the Nine‑Headed Demon Dragon were shattered.

With no other choice, he could only continue to rally the Demon Race for resistance.

Yet now, if he summons the Demon Race to oppose Ye Liuyun's army, the effect is far weaker. Many races have already prepared to surrender, unwilling to clash with the Demon Race army led by Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun later reenacted a scene of tens of millions of Underworld troops pressing the front, as well as the terrifying sight of Golden Crow Holy Fire scorching the entire Xingqiu, frightening even more Demon Race tribes into surrender.

The Demon Race most values strength; those capable of controlling the Underworld and the fiery furnace do not dare to fight to the death. Moreover, Ye Liuyun and his followers are also Demon Race. They are unaware that the true ruler is a Human Martial Cultivator.

Moreover, Ye Liuyun also had Black Mountain and other Demon Race leaders promise that they would seize territories for them, ensuring ample food.

So when the Demon Race army reached the stronghold, Tie Tuo could only muster 300,000 Demon Race defenders.

"Kill!"

This time, Ye Liuyun did not act himself, but let Black Mountain and the other Demon Race leaders lead the army to charge, completely subjugating those Demon Race.

He feared that if he acted again, the Demon Race would resent him.

As expected, he did not act, and the Demon Race's resistance was not as fierce as before. Eventually, even Tie Tuo, seeing the Demon Race's main force had fled, directly surrendered.

However, Black Mountain and the other Demon Race leaders did not spare Tie Tuo. According to Demon Race custom, they must kill the former leader to rightfully assume control.

Ye Liuyun did not intervene in how they handled it; instead, he let Black Mountain, together with the Demon Race leaders, first stabilize internal matters, then reinforce the border, eliminate Song Qing, and seize Song Qing's throne.

He had planned it that way. He believed Zhongxing Wangchao could not go to war with the Demon Race over a single Song Qing. After all, war entails deaths and resource consumption.
