Chapter 2140: Chapter 2140 Apocalytic Aura
Inside the royal palace, the aftermath of the attack was a picture of devastation and utter ruin.
Taking a look at the Ling Clan martial artists, aside from Luo Yi who was bombed into ragged clothes and unconsciousness, the bodies of the other Ninth Realm Ling Clan martial artists had been shattered to pieces.
As for those disciples in the seventh and eighth realm, their fragmented bodies could not even be found. They were been melted away instantly by the high temperature of the genuine energy. Not even their interspatial rings remained.
This scene left the women in the palace agape in shock.
The sheer power of the attack could only be described as apocalyptic.
Even the black armored guards who had launched the attack were taken aback. They too hadn’t anticipated such a powerful result from their collective assault.
Jing Yong and Zhang Heng stood mid-air, having just managed to withstand the onslaught of heat.
"Seems like we may have overdone it, huh?" Zhang Heng asked Jing Yong in an anxious tone using telepathy.
"I didn’t expect it to be this powerful either! How am I going to explain this to our master?" Jing Yong was equally bewildered.
"Well, about that..." Zhang Heng racked his brains but could not find a solution.
"Check if they’re dead!" Wu Qingcheng finally came back to her senses and immediately ordered someone to check if Luo Yi was dead.
Jing Yong and Zhang Heng promptly went to investigate.
"Your highness, this old bloke is still hanging on by a thread thanks to his double-layered protective clothing!" Jing Yong reported to Wu Qingcheng.
"Seal off his genuine energy. We’ll wait for master to decide what to do with him!"
Upon giving the order, Wu Qingcheng quickly notified Ye Liuyun.
Jing Yong sealed Luo Yi’s real essence and put him into his own space ring.
At this moment, Luo Yi was beyond recognition since his flesh was blurred. Once his genuine energy was sealed off, he could no longer recover and had no strength to hurt others.
Wu Qingcheng also immediately arranged for someone to invite Wu Kun to redeploy the formation and organize the guards to protect and rebuild the palace.
Upon hearing that someone had been captured alive, Ye Liuyun hurried back immediately.
Seeing the palace in such a state, he was taken aback.
"All three layers of the formation have been destroyed?"
He had not expected his opponent to be this strong!
"It wasn’t them who did it, it was us initiating the attack!"
Wu Qingcheng also quickly explained to Ye Liuyun.
"People power is indeed great!" Ye Liuyun didn’t witness the scene, but from the outcome, he could tell how horrifying the situation must have been.
He immediately assigned his clone to train those subjugated foreign races in the spatial world. Letting them to use battle formations to launch collective attacks, imitating this time’s tactic.
Jing Yong and Zhang Heng also came to apologize.
"Forget about it, you guys didn’t mean it, no one would have expected such results beforehand!"
Ye Liuyun did not blame them and asked them to strengthen their training. He wanted them to split into smaller teams of different sizes to practice a few times before using it. It could be used against the enemy in the future.
Jing Yong handed Luo Yi over to Ye Liuyun for handling.
Ye Liuyun glanced at Luo Yi, who was still unconscious, and planted a Slaving Seal on him. After some thought, he released his divine soul power once again to erase Luo Yi’s memory.
Then he used poison to corrode Luo Yi’s face, only letting Jing Yong unseal his true essence afterward.
Next, he introduced Devil Qi into Luo Yi’s virtuoso to corrode it.
"What are you doing?" Wu Qingcheng asked in confuse.
"Erase his memories, making him completely forget Fairy Clan. To corrode his face with poison so he can’t recover and to use Devil Qi to demonize his virtuoso so that his traits of the Fairy Clan disappear. This way the Fairy Clan will never recognize him! But his cultivation level will no longer advance!"
Actually, Ye Liuyun’s intention was to allow Luo Yi to serve as a slave without too much pain. For him to completely forget his past and to focus on slaying the foreign race in the future. This way he would also not be a waste for his cultivation level.
He felt that a it was indeed a waste for a Fairy Clan martial cultivator with such a high realm and not fighting against the foreign race.
Upon hearing this, both Jing Yong and Zhang Heng felt a shudder in their hearts. They did not dare to be ruthless and careful not to provoke Ye Liuyun.
Ye Liuyun then instructed them, "Announce that all the Fairy Clan martial cultivators have been killed and that not a single corpse was left! As for this body, he will be called Pang Ren from now on, serving as my personal guard!"
"Yes!" Both Jing Yong and Zhang Heng immediately agreed before withdrawing.
Wu Qingcheng went to issue a circular, claiming that all the Fairy Clan martial practitioners had been annihilated with none remaining.
The people outside the palace, having witnessed such a powerful attack naturally believed the news.
Furthermore, after the formation was blasted open, the martial cultivators within the Regalty had felt the late ninth-tier aura emanating from Jing Yong and the others.
Only then did everyone realize that there were numerous ninth realm experts within the Royal Palace.
Wu Qingcheng also arranged for more than ten early ninth-tier martial cultivators to guard the damaged palace gate, preventing ordinary people from wandering in randomly.
Soon, the might of such a devastating blow, swiftly spread throughout the Eastern Region.
People were spouting rumors about the existance of formidable being in the Royal Palace. Even the Fairy Clan’s elder who was in the late ninth-realm along with other ninth-realm martial practitioners had been slain with one strike. A early ninth-tier expert was merely fit to guard the Palace’s main entrance.
Even the Fairy Clan believed it. Because they had received Luo Yi’s final message and anticipated their pending catastrophe.
“How is this possible? Where did Eastcloud Dynasty get so many experts?”
The elders of the Fairy Clan also found it unbelievable.
However, the reality was crystal clear. They now found themselves in a lose-lose situation. Not only had they lost a late ninth-tier expert, even the resources and territories they had lost were irrecoverable.
A late ninth-tier expert carried a substantial weight regardless of which major force. The death of one could trigger a shift in power.
Given the multitude of experts the Eastcloud Dynasty possessed, the Fairy Clan was not keen to confront them head-on. The last information reported personally by Luo Yi before his death was undoubtedly true.
They had clearly fallen for Ye Liuyun’s ruse, sending their ninth-tier martial cultivators to meet their demises.
The Dragon Clan, Beast Mountain and Scarlet Cardinal House once again paying their awe to Ye Liuyun’s abilities. They had not anticipated that Ye Liuyun would clinch such a resounding victory.
Ye Liuyun had his clone bring Pang Ren into the Spatial World, before returning to the battlefield of the foreign races.
He gave Pang Ren a new cultivation method to practice from scratch. The memory of the original cultivation had been erased by Ye Liuyun, turning Pang Ren into a complete devil cultivator. He spent his days with Ye Liuyun’s clone alongside with the devil beast in the Spatial World absorbing Devil Qi.
“Consider this your punishment for attacking me! I hope the Fairy Clan will take this as a warning and stop sending people to their deaths!”
Ye Liuyun secretly hoped that the Fairy Clan would no longer target him.
"With so many expers, it would be good to kill some foreign races."
Yet, things never seem to go as smoothly as he’d like.
Though the Fairy Clan could not take actions against the royal management, they knew that Ye Liuyun was alone on the battlefield against the foreign races.
"Let’s send people to the foreign races’ battlefield too! Aren’t the people of the east complaining about us not joining the war? It’s a perfect opportunity for us to send a large number of disciples to take down Ye Liuyun."
"Indeed, he killed Luo Yi. So he must pay back with his life!"
"We need to capture him alive. The Spirit Crystal Demon he carries is of great importance. It’s not too late to kill him once we get the information of the Spirit Crystal Demon from him."
"Then let’s beat him to the vedge of death, just make sure he’s still alive!"
