Chapter 3887: Eradicating the Giants

Ye Liuyun also thought that these giants only attacked here and not other star systems, which was indeed contrary to logic.

If they truly only wanted to treat humans as food, any star system would be the same; they could simply pick a low‑realm star system to strike, with no need to come here to fight to the death.

The giant, having achieved its goal, directly demanded of Ye Liuyun: "We need to sign a Divine Soul Contract, guaranteeing that after I tell you the location, you will let me go."

"If you worry I'll deceive you, I can personally take you there. Our tribe members are guarding it, and with me they can be guaranteed not to attack you."

"Afterwards I will leave this place with my tribe immediately; you must not intervene again."

Ye Liuyun could accept his terms.

But he still asked: "Since you have already seized that stone tablet, why not just take it away?"

The giant shook his head and explained to Ye Liuyun: "We cannot move that stone tablet, so we must occupy this place to claim it as ours."

"But the humans here resisted too fiercely at first; we also suffered heavy losses, need time to recuperate, then we will strike this star system again."

"Fine, we will sign the Divine Soul Contract." Ye Liuyun immediately agreed.

Yet the giant added: "I cannot exit this Formation, nor can my Divine Soul leave; you must enter for it to work."

"Beware of deception!" the clone immediately warned Ye Liuyun.

"Can you giants sign a Divine Soul Contract? The giants I previously met exploded as soon as they touched a Divine Soul." Ye Liuyun raised another question.

"Those you met were my subordinates, under my control. I know you tried four times and failed. I am free, unbound, so I can sign a Divine Soul Contract." the giant explained.

"Good!" Ye Liuyun, hearing him, readily agreed.

He possesses Time Power and Technique, both can kill the giant at close range; the clone's reminder was merely to let him prepare.

As for Spiritual Soul Attack, he was not afraid at all. He even hoped the giant would attack his Divine Soul, so he could perform Soul Search directly.

His Golden Pupil could see that the giant's Divine Soul Power was far stronger than others', yet still not a match for the Ten Thousand Gods Command, and not even as strong as those Dragon Souls.

So his War God armor manifested, and he walked straight into the courtyard.

"Alright, I'm inside; we can now sign the contract!" Ye Liuyun said to the giant.

"Ha ha, foolish humans, I have been waiting for this day for a long time!"

The giant suddenly cackled, and its Divine Soul surged into Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness.

Ye Liuyun disdainfully sneered, "With such meager skill, you still try to trap me? Fool."

He raised his hand, and Golden Crow flames erupted, instantly turning the giant's Physical Body into ash.

Within his Sea of Consciousness, the giant's Divine Soul was already enveloped by the Ten Thousand Gods Command's Golden Light, and Ye Liuyun was conducting Soul Search on it.

This giant strongman's Divine Soul indeed had no restrictions placed on it. The things he said about the giant tribe and the Boundless Stone Tablet turned out to be true.

Ye Liuyun, from his memory, located the positions of other giants and the Boundless Stone Tablet; after grasping all the information, he placed it into the Soul Refining Cauldron to refine its Divine Soul.

This giant, coveting a larger Divine Soul, caused his soul source to be insufficiently condensed, and having never used pills or related resources for purification, appeared impure and chaotic.

For Ye Liuyun to absorb its Divine Soul Power, he must re‑condense it through the Soul Refining Cauldron.

Afterwards, Ye Liuyun stepped out of the courtyard again. This Formation only seals the giant tribe, having no effect on him.

Now that the giants have vanished, he sliced through the Formation with a single slash; the courtyard lost its sealing function and began to collapse.

"You all clean up the battlefield, then we will depart immediately and eliminate the other five giant strongholds."

This dynasty's foolish God King was deceived by the giants, still believing the giants would aid him in crucial moments.

Fortunately we struck first; otherwise, if he released that creature and let it rally other giants, our casualties would be considerable.

Ye Liuyun gave the crowd a command to check for any oversights.

Those Skeleton Soldiers he gathered into the Space World to avoid wasting energy.

The Martial Cultivators in the Royal City had mostly fled, and no one could dare strike them.

Lei Ming, accompanied by Long Nv and the Nine‑Head Demon Dragon, opportunistically raided the Royal City's merchant guild, then left the Royal City together with Ye Liuyun.

As for who will govern the dynasty later, Ye Liuyun was too lazy to inquire. He had already done his duty by eliminating the giant threats in this star system.

The giant strongman's memory proved accurate; the five strongholds were taken down one by one by Ye Liuyun and his group.

Some of these strongholds were in deep mountains, others underwater, all highly concealed. Without information, they could not be found.

Finally, they arrived at a place on a planet called Boundless Mountain.

This is the peak used by the local City Lord for rituals; normally it is guarded by City Lord's appointed sentries, and ordinary people are not allowed to ascend freely.

But Ye Liuyun and his party disregarded that, slaughtered the guards, and found the Boundless Cup.

The stone tablet stood beside the Altar at the summit, said to clear one's Divine Sense. For the local City Lord's mansion, it was merely a ritual prop; they did not know the true function of the Boundless Cup.

In front of the Boundless Cup sat an elderly man on the ground, appearing as an ordinary cleaning servant, showing no cultivation realm.

The old man, upon seeing Ye Liuyun and his party, trembled and offered them a salute.

If he were an ordinary servant, Ye Liuyun would never strike him; he never had a habit of bullying the weak or oppressing the people.

Yet this time he acted directly, slashing the old man's head off with a single cut. Because the giant strongman's memory was clear, this old man had been possessed by a giant strongman, acting as a spy here.

Since the old man had no cultivation realm, he went unnoticed and was left here to do cleaning.

The old man clearly hadn't expected his identity to be seen through by Ye Liuyun, so at first he didn't react.

But when Ye Liuyun's blade had already cleaved the head, he realized he was exposed. His Divine Soul then immediately surged out, entering Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness.

Ye Liuyun was waiting for exactly this move. Even if he didn't attack Ye Liuyun, others could also strike, pulling his Divine Soul into Ye Liuyun's Sea of Consciousness.

"It seems the Boundless Cup also enhances Divine Soul Power!"

Ye Liuyun immediately performed Soul Search on the giants' Divine Soul, discovering that the stone tablet purifies Divine Soul and clears one's consciousness, aiding in Dao comprehension.
