Previously, when Ye Liuyun led his troops to eliminate more of the alien races, it never took this long. The main reason was that this ti, the enemy soldiers were significantly stronger, and his demon army hadn't seen battle in quite so ti, needing so adjustnt.
Regardless, annihilating 200,000 enemy troops in the very first battle was undeniably a great victory.
Once the battle concluded and the battlefield was cleared, Ye Liuyun recalled all his forces into his spatial world. Without delay, he shared his plan with Wu Feng.
"We must launch a surprise assault straight into the heart of the alien stronghold before they can react. If they regroup and mobilize their forces, taking them down will beco far more difficult."
Wu Feng agreed with the strategy, though he knew the remaining forces under his command weren't fit to keep up with Ye Liuyun—in fact, they'd only slow him down.
Ye Liuyun understood this as well. "No worries," he said. "I'll dispatch so troops to help you hold this position. Focus on strengthening yourselves as quickly as possible, and we'll regroup at the alien base."
However, Ye Liuyun also discussed with Wu Feng the matter of absorbing the origin energy from the occupied strongholds.
"First, my army needs resources to sustain itself. Second, these strongholds, now under alien control, would have been drained by them anyway. Handing them over to us isn't a loss for you." He was slightly concerned Wu Feng might be reluctant.
But Wu Feng was surprisingly pragmatic. "If you can claim it, that's your strength—we won't interfere. After all, the humans in those strongholds have already been wiped out. And with our current numbers, we'd never be able to hold so many planets in the future."
He added, "Besides, you're the ones helping us drive out the aliens. It's only fair you gain sothing in return."
Relieved by Wu Feng's reasoning, Ye Liuyun waited until Qiong Qi finished setting up the teleportation array. He then notified the alliance to send over a contingent of third-level Dominator cultivators and 500,000 troops to temporarily garrison the area, establishing it as their base.
Without waiting for the reinforcents to arrive, Ye Liuyun imdiately set off, racing against ti to reach the nearest alien outpost.
His travel speed far surpassed Mo Tianheng's. Moreover, since Mo Tianheng avoided provoking the alien strongholds, securing suitable resources later would prove difficult. Thus, Ye Liuyun soon overtook him.
Though Mo Tianheng traveled alone, he moved swiftly in small steps, absorbing the origin energy of nurous small islands along the way. Continuously strengthening himself, his power grew at a remarkable pace.
anwhile, Ye Liuyun, leveraging the advantage of his golden pupils, could observe the alien outposts from a great distance well in advance.
He continued employing his previous strategy of dividing forces. The Demon-Sealing Stele and Demon Vines ford one team, his doppelganger led another, Ye Liuyun commanded a third, Liang Xue headed a fourth with the Nine-Headed Demon Dragon and other beasts, while Wu Qingcheng led the fifth team with the Purple Kylin Snake and other creatures. Five teams advanced simultaneously.
Swiftly, they obliterated over twenty alien strongholds. Their modus operandi remained consistent—eliminating the guardians of the altars, destroying the altars themselves, extracting the core energy of each base, then imdiately moving to the next target.
For the remaining low-level aliens, Ye Liuyun left three thousand hunting eagles under the command of the Tiger-Headed Beast King to hunt them down.
After annihilating another twenty-plus alien bases, Ye Liuyun calculated the maximum teleportation range of the enemy altars and confird the aliens could no longer easily reach their newly established stronghold. Even if the enemy dispatched warships, the distance would buy him enough ti to return via the Black Tower and prepare defenses.
Both Ye Liuyun and his doppelganger had been relentlessly honing their soul power during this period, rarely engaging physically. They relied primarily on soul attacks, deliberately enduring enemy strikes to temper their physical resilience.
The first major battle had yielded abundant soul energy from fallen elites, significantly boosting his spiritual strength. Now, his progress accelerated even further. Moreover, Lin Luoyi continuously refined soul-condensing elixirs for him, steadily solidifying his psychic prowess.
Unlike the previous campaign against the Three-Eyed aliens, this faction lacked similarly formidable opponents, drastically reducing the threat level. With his rapidly growing soul power, he was confident of soon surpassing them. Already, his spiritual strength rivaled that of the red-scaled aliens at the second level of Dominance.
anwhile, Torin, chieftain of the red-scaled aliens, received alarming reports. Initial news of frontline defeats had hinted at a魔族 resistance force, but he'd dismissed them as no imdiate threat.
Yet the loss of forty bases in such short order was terrifying. Many outposts had been eradicated before even sending distress signals.
This suggested the魔族 weren't acting alone—powerful human and beast allies must be aiding them. Otherwise, they couldn't have covered such distances so swiftly, nor slaughtered altar guardians before they could react.
Torin dispatched his personal guard—three thousand crimson-armored elites, each at Dominance tier one or two. These warriors possessed formidable soul power, elevated cultivation bases, naturally resilient bodies enhanced by their alien scales, and top-tier equipnt.
Certain they could intercept Ye Liuyun's forces, Torin simultaneously mobilized two border armies totaling 400,000 troops to reinforce forward bases, preparing to assault Ye Liuyun's stronghold.
The crimson guard embarked imdiately, teleporting through multiple relay points to cut off Ye Liuyun's advance.
Unbeknownst to them, Ye Liuyun's golden pupils had already detected their presence long before arrival.
He imdiately gathered everyone together and announced that they were about to engage in a major battle. Moreover, everyone had to be fully prepared for soul defense.
This ti, he allowed the Demon Vine, the Nine-Headed Netherdrake, and the three Black Tortoises to freely unleash their black-and-white light attacks. Previously, he had restrained them because their opponents had been manageable. But now, with three thousand powerful alien warriors erging at once—each possessing formidable soul power—they needed to eliminate them as swiftly as possible. Absorbing their souls could wait until only a few remained and the situation was fully under control.
The Violet Kylin's temporal powers and the Vermilion Bird's soul attacks were also permitted without restriction.
Once everything was arranged, Ye Liuyun double-checked their defensive artifacts before leading the charge.
He struck first, wielding temporal energy to brand slave marks on the weaker alien warriors and then stashing them away in his spatial realm. As for the red-armored aliens with overwhelming soul power, his doppelganger took them out directly with white light attacks.
Between him and his doppelganger, a single wave of white light obliterated over two hundred of the strongest and weakest warriors.
Right after, the Violet Kylin unleashed a ti-freeze assault, slaughtering another two hundred in one go.
The remaining enemies were swiftly dealt with—the Demon Vine coiled around seven or eight at a ti, while the Demon-Sealing Stela crushed five or six with each strike.
