Chapter 3883: Dynasty

Ye Liuyun, while on the road, also let Qi Yue and Qi Heng describe the Trump Card of the Great Qi Dynasty.

He gained some insight during the Soul Search, and now he lets them explain it in detail to everyone.

"Outside the Royal Palace of the Great Qi Dynasty, there is an open plain where, underground, some monster giants are imprisoned.

These giants are not of the Human Race; they only look like us, their teeth resemble those of ferocious beasts, and they feed on the Human Race.

They cannot speak our language, communication is only possible via Divine Sense. The royal family normally supplies them with corpses, raising those giants, and in wartime they are used to fight for the dynasty.

These giants already possess strength equivalent to Hédào Wǔchóng. Moreover, it is said that the God King's cultivation site still seals the strongest giant; the God King cannot control it, and even the God King himself dares not approach it in ordinary times."

The two of them speak without reservation, yet they have never personally encountered those giants; they only know the legends of the elders.

It is said that the ancestors of the Great Qi Dynasty were very powerful; after fighting these invading giants, the strong suffered near‑total casualties.

Yet in the end they eliminated all the invading giants, and only a few captives were kept.

The two also heard that, aside from the giant strongman inside the Royal Palace who is trapped by a Formation, the other giants have already signed Divine Soul Contracts pledging loyalty to the dynasty.

As for how strong that giant strongman truly is, they do not know, only speculate that it exceeds the Hédào Wǔchóng realm.

They are also unsure how many giants possess Hédào Wǔchóng strength. Only the God King learns this when inheriting the throne; others remain unaware.

"Since this is the Great Qi Dynasty's Trump Card, we should eliminate its Trump Card first."

Based on their description, Ye Liuyun had the Clone Puppet equip a Magic Vine and use spatial teleport to rush over and clear those giants.

He, meanwhile, led Skeleton Soldiers to the Royal Palace, attacking head‑on to draw the dynasty's attention. After the Clone Puppet reunites with him, they will together deal with that giant strongman.

The Clone Puppet employed spatial teleport; its speed already surpasses a Flying Boat. Moreover, it need not worry about True Essence consumption, allowing long‑range travel.

When the Clone Puppet arrived, it was two hours ahead of Ye Liuyun and his party.

Within the Royal City, massive armies and soldiers have begun to leave the city and gather.

Following Qi Yue and Qi Heng's recollection, he reached that plain and happened to see a squad of soldiers surrounding a pit, throwing corpses down into it.

The ground was piled with a heap of corpses, and the soldiers kept moving more bodies down.

Ye Liuyun glanced with his Golden Pupil, unable to see through the surface, estimating the pit to be very deep.

He did not rush to manifest from the void; instead, from a distance he dropped the Magic Vine.

The Magic Vine immediately burrowed into the soil, probing the underground situation.

"Boss, the underground is deep, about three hundred plus zhang. Inside there are indeed giants, over fifty of them, gnawing on corpses."

The Magic Vine quickly relayed the information. It no longer needs to extend vines; it can use the power of laws to control earth and stone, directly investigating.

"What realm?" the Clone Puppet asked him.

"It really is Hédào Wǔchóng. However, they seem to lack the power of laws; they only have brute force, more like ferocious beasts, though they look human," the Magic Vine replied.

"I'll go down and grab a live one; kill the rest! You then seal the pit with earth and stone so no sound escapes."

The Clone Puppet gave the Magic Vine a heads‑up, coordinated, and then leapt from the void into that underground pit.

The distance from the pit bottom to the surface is indeed roughly three hundred zhang; ordinary people cannot probe the surface condition.

Moreover, the underground passage is wide and long. The pit bottom is littered with broken bones and flesh, disgusting to look at, so it's no wonder the Magic Vine said these guys resemble ferocious beasts.

The Clone Puppet did not land, fearing blood and flesh on its feet, and instead floated in the void along the passage to seek the giants.

After it entered the underground passage, the tunnel behind collapsed; the Magic Vine sealed the entrance.

At that moment, Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil also saw a beast‑like roar; several giants ran toward him.

"Discovered? These giants also possess some Spatial Power?" the Clone Puppet immediately tore through the ninth‑layer void barrier, escaping to the outside of the ninth‑layer void.

If they can locate this place, he will have to resort to Time Power to deal with them.

Compared with these giants, his height reaches only to their ankles. They indeed look human, but their mouths full of sharp fangs clearly differ from humans.

After the giants arrived, they also entered the void to scout. However, their Spatial Power is not as strong as Ye Liuyun's, unable to reach beyond the ninth‑layer void.

So after searching, they did not find his trace, all showing puzzled expressions, seemingly not very intelligent.

Then they casually searched nearby, rummaging through the broken bones and flesh on the ground, found a few pieces of flesh, stuffed them into their mouths, and began digging the collapsed pit.

The Clone Puppet thought for a moment, and without waiting to locate all the giants, acted immediately, fearing it would be discovered again.

He did not immediately employ Time Power; instead, he first used Spatial Power to launch a surprise attack, wanting to gauge the giants' other strengths.

The rearmost giant was completely unprepared, and a Black Light suddenly cut its head from the void.

Although it erupted True Essence upon sensing danger, it still could not block the Clone Puppet's strike.

"Low vigilance, little combat experience, weak Physical Body, but the realm truly is Hédào Wǔchóng."

He evaluated in his mind, and Ye Liuyun's side simultaneously received the information.

The few giants ahead instantly turned around, first staring in surprise, then began roaring angrily. The entire underground world quickly trembled along.

"The other giants are all rushing here!" the Magic Vine, meanwhile, helped the Clone Puppet monitor the giants' movements in real time.

The few giants before him immediately surged into the void, trying to locate him.

"A good opportunity!"

The Clone Puppet felt this was a perfect chance to capture these giants; fighting in the void favors him.

He immediately struck, slashing a giant with another blade, then revealed his form, confronting a giant head‑on, first using a spatial lock to immobilize it, then cutting off its head with a blade.

The other giant, seeing this, tried to flee, but he likewise used a spatial lock to keep it rooted.

Then the Clone Puppet released a soul source that surged into the giant's Sea of Consciousness.

His Golden Pupil had already seen that the giant's Soul body size, compared to its massive physique, was pitifully small, almost matching his own size.

Now, the Clone Puppet's Soul has become that of a giant, while the giant's Soul has become that of a dwarf. Facing the Soul‑giant before him, the creature's eyes also showed fear.
