Chapter 3710: Preemptive Strike

Ye Liuyun's cultivation realm has only just broken through, and he needs to fight to consolidate it for a while before he can advance again.

Therefore, his training focus is to use the energy from the golden egg to boost Divine Soul Power, to cope with any Soul Cultivator strongmen the God King might send.

The Clone Puppet is also cultivating Divine Soul Power, and has laid out many rune formations in the Sea of Consciousness, so that if he is surrounded and beaten, no one can rush into the Sea of Consciousness; it also adds extra safeguards to his defensive red bell.

After everything is ready, the time to enter the monster passage arrives. Ye Liuyun slips into the Clone Puppet's Space World and rushes with it toward the Royal Palace.

Li Yuan, also invigorated, gathers with Ye Liuyun and the other Martial Cultivators, and is led by a guard to rush toward a Teleportation Array inside the Royal Palace.

The God King does not appear this time, and Ye Liuyun records the terrain and the Royal Palace's guard situation with his Golden Pupil as he walks. Although he predicts that the God King will only act after he emerges, he remains fully vigilant to avoid misjudgment.

In the end, his judgment proves correct; they are smoothly teleported to the human garrison within the passage, and there is no noticeable change inside the garrison—the Martial Cultivators' strength and numbers are about the same as before.

After they arrive, the garrison Leader personally comes to greet them, issuing each a Token and a Transmission Talisman, saying they are for convenient identity verification and communication.

"I'll have someone take you all to my residence in a moment. There's a merchant guild here where you can exchange resources; you can first get familiar with the environment.

Our management here is relatively lax; weapons are absolutely prohibited inside the garrison. For future battles, whether you team up or go solo to hunt Demon Beasts is up to you.

In ten days, you can use the Token to come and go at any time. If you need to leave, tell me, and I'll have someone activate a Teleportation Array for you."

The Leader imposes no further restrictions, and after sending someone to take them to the residence, he no longer concerns himself with them.

"Brother Ye, what are your plans?" Li Yuan asks Ye Liuyun proactively.

"This time I intend to go big; are you interested in joining?"

Ye Liuyun proactively invites Li Yuan to form a team, which matches Li Yuan's wishes.

He intends to strike Li Yuan first, eliminating the God King's spy lingering near him.

"Alright then, I'll be waiting to borrow Ye's light!" Li Yuan readily agrees.

"Let's first stroll around here and check the merchant guild's prices. Last time we didn't study them properly; this time we have a chance," Ye Liuyun adds.

"Good!" The two immediately start walking around the garrison, chatting and laughing.

Two Martial Cultivators, eager to slay Demon Beasts, ask the guards for information and then hurriedly leave.

The remaining six Martial Cultivators exchange glances; three immediately exit the garrison together, while the other three trail Ye Liuyun's group from a distance. Clearly, these people are preparing to make a move against Ye Liuyun.

The garrison is small, and Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense can fully cover it, so none of their petty actions escape his eyes.

However, he doesn't mind; whether it's an ambush or tailing, he isn't afraid. In this Demon Beast world, these people's experience is far inferior to his.

Li Yuan, pretending to be helpful, warns Ye Liuyun: "It seems some people still don't want to let you go! I guess they've brought more allies this time."

He also knows Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense can certainly detect those people, which is why he said it outright.

In fact, those people never tried to conceal anything. They all think their strength is not weak, especially six of them teaming up against two, which should give them a good chance of victory.

Ye Liuyun is strong, but this time they have brought enough help that even exhaustion could kill Ye Liuyun.

"Just a bunch of defeated subordinates; bringing more people is pointless, no need to mind them!"

Ye Liuyun then seriously tours the garrison, fully understanding its situation before preparing to leave with Li Yuan.

As soon as they leave the camp, they launch a Flying Boat and speed away, causing the six people to scramble together.

They gather and take out a Flying Boat to give chase.

This time they have a set plan to act together, to avoid being picked off by Ye Liuyun, so the three who went out first hold back and wait to regroup before striking.

Ye Liuyun lets them follow behind, and on the Flying Boat he asks Li Yuan about the number of people he brought this time.

"My power remains unchanged, Brother Li, how many people did you bring this time?"

Li Yuan truthfully tells Ye Liuyun: "Still twenty people, but only four Kuailei; the rest are Martial Cultivators. The price of Cave Heaven Realm Kuailei is just too high, I can't afford them now, and I hope to earn more this time to bring back!"

"No problem, this time I'll take you underground!" Ye Liuyun readily agrees.

Then their Flying Boat heads straight toward a larger Xingqiu in the distance.

As for the Xingqiu closer to the garrison, Ye Liuyun now has no interest at all.

The Flying Boat following behind him, reckless and fearless, speeds up to keep up, showing no intention to hide.

On the Flying Boat, Ye Liuyun uses his Golden Pupil from afar to assess the target Xingqiu, recording the days of Demon Fiend energy eruptions, preparing to enter the underground space.

After arriving, he logs in directly, and together with Li Yuan releases the people nearby, killing Demon Beasts while waiting for the Demon Fiend energy to erupt.

"Brother Li, the allies you brought this time are quite strong! When we deal with those tails later, make sure they give it their all!"

During the battle, Ye Liuyun also notices that the Martial Cultivators Li Yuan brought this time are a tier stronger than before. They must have been lent by Wang Tianqi, otherwise he couldn't have found such protectors previously.

"No problem!" Li Yuan, excited that Ye Liuyun will take them into the underground space, readily agrees.

Soon, the Flying Boat behind also logs onto this Xingqiu. Then those people rush straight at Ye Liuyun's group, running while unleashing all their carried power.

"Yoho, looks like they've splashed the cash!" Ye Liuyun can't help but laugh upon seeing it. M..

But Li Yuan's expression changes; he didn't expect those six people to have brought over three hundred Martial Cultivators of Cave Heaven second and third tiers, no wonder they're so arrogant.

Ye Liuyun immediately produces a set of Formation Flags, having everyone around help set them up.

Once the Formation Flags are placed, Ye Liuyun activates them at once. Just before those people close in, the entire area covered by the flags becomes shrouded in the local Demon Fiend energy.

Qiong Qi designed these Formation Flags based on the monster world's environment, using local materials and absorbing the Demon Fiend energy here to form an Illusion Array fog that blocks sight.

But those Martial Cultivators are unbothered, relying on their numbers, believing they can break through even with the formation.

However, they still underestimate Qiong Qi's formation ability. This grand array is not something a few hundred of them can break. Recently the transcoding has been severe, giving us more motivation, updating faster, please take a moment to exit reading mode. Thank you.
