The clone's side had the advantage of ti acceleration, so things progressed swiftly there. However, the handover and reorganization on Broken Horn's end took over a month. Managing and integrating 50,000 elite warriors and five million troops was no simple task.
In the end, Broken Horn assembled a strike force of 70,000 alien warriors, all at least at the sixth level of Dominator realm. This force was divided into seven squads, each led by a ninth-level Dominator alien.
Additionally, two ninth-level Dominator aliens were assigned to command an elite corps of 200,000 soldiers.
The remaining four ninth-level Dominator aliens were tasked with protecting key figures like Fuyang, Dragon Fang, and Fire Lizard—powerful beings capable of transporting large numbers of their kind.
Broken Horn served as the supre commander of this massive army, with Fuyang as his deputy. Though Fuyang had lost his soul power and was no longer a formidable fighter, his authority remained intact. His responsibilities included scouting enemy movents and transporting the strike force—a mission of critical importance.
Under Broken Horn's leadership, the alien army was streamlined to five million soldiers. The 600,000-plus troops deed unfit for combat were repurposed as cultivation resources for the strike force and the elite corps.
Ye Liuyun couldn't help but admire the sheer audacity of Broken Horn and Fuyang, who had just coldly sacrificed 60,000 of their own.
Ye Liuyun then recalled his other five armies, leaving the remaining alien star systems for Broken Horn's forces to practice on.
Those five armies had amassed considerable resources, even trading so of their excess with Broken Horn. But their numbers had dwindled drastically.
Yu Xiaofeng's forces were down to fewer than 800,000, Qin Peng's to 600,000, Yuan Hao's to just over 700,000, and Kuishan's to less than 500,000. Xiao Yunfang and ng Qingyin had fought the most conservatively, gaining the least resources, but even their forces were reduced to just over 800,000.
As for the elite martial warriors, each army now had fewer than 7,000 left, most of whom were from the Vanguard Regint. Seeing such heavy losses among even the Vanguard fighters pained Ye Tiandao deeply.
Ye Liuyun ordered Broken Horn to lead the alien army in sweeping through all remaining alien star systems in the region.
anwhile, Yu Xiaofeng and Ye Tiandao began reorganizing their forces and the Vanguard Regint. Following Broken Horn's philosophy of quality over quantity, they trimd the Vanguard Regint down to 30,000 and the main armies to three million.
The soldiers who didn't make the cut were handed over to Pei Yong as reserve forces. Resources were then concentrated on the newly streamlined armies to further enhance their strength.
Thus, Yu Xiaofeng and the other commanders, alongside Ye Tiandao, began selecting warriors for the Vanguard Regint. Those who didn't qualify were naturally absorbed into the other commanders' ranks.
After completing their recovery training, the Blade Corps imdiately began cultivating within the clone's spatial realm. Since these soldiers were all seasoned veterans, they required no additional training—only focused cultivation to enhance their combat prowess.
Following this, Yu Xiaofeng and the other commanders comnced troop selection. Yu Xiaofeng was appointed as the Grand Commander, with Qin Peng and Yuan Hao serving as his deputies. The remaining leaders were assigned as legion commanders.
The newly reorganized army of three million soldiers also underwent rigorous integration training. Afterward, Ye Liuyun deployed them in several battles against alien planets. It took a full three months before the army was fully consolidated and combat-ready.
anwhile, Broken Horn had successfully eradicated all alien forces in the surrounding star systems and returned to report. The clone first stored them within the spatial world for inspection, ensuring no issues before releasing them again. After a period of rest and recuperation, they set out once more, advancing toward the alien stronghold.
This ti, their forces consisted only of elite alien warriors aboard Spirit Fox warships—no massive army deploynt. The smaller scale made them far less detectable by enemy forces.
As for Ye Liuyun and the other human cultivators, they remained within the spatial world, training in peace. The clone occasionally erged to scout the starscape before swiftly returning to cultivation.
Broken Horn and Flock Shepherd, being high-ranking alien elders, possessed an intimate understanding of their kin's strategies and weaknesses. Leading their troops against the aliens was almost effortless.
Unless deliberately intercepted by the enemy, their forces were virtually unstoppable.
The Alien Council, well aware of this threat, swiftly dispatched two of their own elders from the stronghold, leading a formidable army of 500,000 to confront Broken Horn and Flock Shepherd.
This elite alien legion, though composed of various species, was uniformly clad in golden armor. Not only were they fully equipped, but their cultivation levels were also ticulously balanced—ranging from Dominator Realm sixth to ninth tier.
This was, without a doubt, a highly disciplined army of elite warriors.
In contrast, Broken Horn's assault corps numbered a re 70,000, with uneven cultivation levels. The alien golden-armored legion alone boasted a thousand ninth-tier Dominator Realm experts.
Though only 500,000 strong, this force was more than sufficient to annihilate Broken Horn's troops.
Their warships, while significantly faster than the previous colossal dreadnoughts, still lacked spatial traversal capabilities—proof that alien forging techniques remained inferior.
The commander of this formidable army was a red-scaled alien overlord at the eighth level of dominance. Surprisingly, his deputy surpassed him in strength—a black-armored alien at the pinnacle ninth level. Both leaders wore golden armor, though their designs were more intricate than those of the common soldiers.
Their warships and battle flags all bore the emblem of a golden tiger's head, earning them the infamous na "Golden Tiger Legion" among the alien races. Renowned and undefeated, they had ravaged countless planets, leaving nothing but desolation in their wake. Such was their confidence that even with a re fifty thousand troops, they dared challenge armies ten tis their size.
Through soul-searching the mories of Broken Horn and Soothing Sheep, Ye Liuyun had gained considerable insight into these aliens. So when he spotted three winged alien scouts clad in golden armor patrolling the void, he imdiately suspected they belonged to the dreaded Golden Tiger Legion.
A quick confirmation from Broken Horn and Soothing Sheep left no doubt.
Without hesitation, Ye Liuyun had his doppelgänger conceal Broken Horn and the other alien elites while he donned his invisibility cloak, stealthily approaching the three winged sentinels.
True to their reputation, the scouts were sharp and disciplined. Sensing a ripple in spatial energy, they halted instantly—one reporting to their legion while the other two stood guard, shields raised.
*"Impressive reflexes,"* Ye Liuyun mused, though his hands moved without rcy. Wielding temporal power, he swiftly branded each with a slave seal before delving into their mories.
*"Damn, they react fast—their elites are already closing in!"*
The soul search revealed that a twelve-strong squad of ninth-level overlords was rapidly encircling his position. These warriors moved at terrifying speed, and with his own abilities still lagging behind theirs, escape seed unlikely.
But then a thought struck him—*"What if I capture a few of these ninth-level aliens instead?"*
