Chapter 2203: Chapter 2203 Declaration of War Upfront
Ye Liuyun owned a teleportation black tower. Even if the conveyor formation did not work, it would not deter him.
He also took Wu Kun along to help modify the conveyor formation there.
However, this time he did not set his base in Coast City.
After the previous recruitment, the number of martial practitioners had dwindled in Coast City.
Ye Liuyun just passed through the conveyor formation of the Coast City and arrived at the ferry port in the east.
Starting from here, he seized the biggest city in the east. He then modified the conveyor formation, cutting off the connection with the Revival Dynasty and connecting it with the Eastcloud Dynasty, transferring Yu Xiaofeng’s hundred thousand troops over.
Afterward, Ye Liuyun renamed the city to Inferno City, officially declaring war on the Revival Dynasty.
Ye Tiandao led the Blade Legion and immediately made a move on the surrounding cities seizing three large cities in the periphery.
The formations within the cities were modified by Wu Kun, only communicating with Inferno City.
Liu Yang and Mo Shaowen led the soul cultivators at the vanguard of the army capturing martial practitioners.
Yu Xiaofeng also stationed his 100,000 troops in those three cities. All these cities had conveyor formations within, providing mutual support and teleportation of soldiers and resources.
Xiao Yunfang began recruitment on the hand, training new soldiers to guard Inferno City.
The martial practitioners here were very keen to resist the Revival Dynasty as many forces had been oppressed by the Revival Dynasty for a long time.
They certainly could not resist the Revival Dynasty on their own. They saw a chance when Ye Liuyun’s hundred thousand army appeared. They would contribute either money or manpower, whichever they had.
The resources of the Revival Dynasty within Ye Liuyun’s control were unceremoniously claimed by him. The resources of the City Lord Manor were all taken by him and distributed to the soldiers for cultivation training.
Feng Hongxiu quickly took over the local brothel and transformed it into Scarlet Cardinal House.
Everything was moving along in an orderly and efficient manner.
Mo Xiaotian was not angry this time around, instead, he was thrilled.
He had wanted to battle with Ye Liuyun before but could not find the opportunity. Unexpectedly, Ye Liuyun had just delivered his finest team right to his doorstep.
Therefore, he quickly ordered twenty thousand members of his praetorian and one hundred thousand troops to rush to the frontline to confront the enemy. He also dispatched twenty ninth-tier peak experts wanting to capture Ye Liuyun alive.
There were only total of nineteen of such experts at this level around Ye Liuyun and they were all elders of the Fairy Clan. Seven of them were jet-black tier, eight of them of lucid-tier and all of them were in Ye Liuyun’s Spatial world.
There were two more jet-black tier and lucid-tier experts in Ye Tiandao’s Blade Legion.
But he was not in the least bit afraid. He had already evaluated the strength of the Revival Dynasty’s praetorian. These experts were likely not as strong as they pretended to be.
As expected, these experts tried to strike Ye Liuyun before the battle even began.
Theses twenty experts split into two forces. Five of them ambushed Yu Xiaofeng and the other fifteen people rushed towards Ye Liuyun to kill him.
Their actions had been detected by the soul cultivators like Liu Yang and Mo Shaowen, and was informed to Ye Liuyun and Yu Xiaofeng immediately.
"All the soul sultivators and the Blade Legion protect Yu Xiaofeng at all cost. You don’t need to worry about me, just let them come," Ye Liuyun instructed.
"These idiots from the Revival Dynasty! If they’re coming why not send more people! Isn’t this obviously a suicide mission! Why would we scared if we have declared a war?"
Even Song An scolded these people for being brainless after hearing the news.
However, Ye Liuyun laughed and said, "Isn’t this just perfect? They know we’re short on manpower, so they’re delivering some to us."
The five martial practitioners who ambushed Yu Xiaofeng were seized first.
As soon as they entered the city, they were attacked by hundreds of soul cultivators.
These soul cultivators were the ones with the strongest divine soul power in the Revival Dynasty. No matter how strong these five person were, they were no match against one hundred people.
Ye Tiandao also dispatched four strong experts under his command to intercept and hold them off.
Therefore, without much battling, those five experts were controlled and forced to sign a master-servant contract. Ye Liuyun commanded them to stay by Yu Xiaofeng’s side to protect his safety.
As for the fifteen martial practitioners rushing towards Ye Liuyun, he found them even easier to deal with.
He went out of the city and released his martial practitioners to hold them off in order to avoid damaging the buildings in the city.
These martial practitioners were as Ye Liuyun expected, they could only handle the lucid-tier elders from the Fairy Clan. They were no match at all towards the jet-black tier elders.
Ye Liuyun took this opportunity to imprint them with the slaving seal one by one.
In a whim, all the twenty experts had became Ye Liuyun’s captive and no one could escaped.
Ye Liuyun did not bother to keep them around and sent them straight to report to Yu Xiaofeng, leaving him to handle them.
Yu Xiaofeng arranged two of them to Xiao Yunfang to protect her safety. The other thirteen were given to Ye Tiandao to strengthen the Blade Legion’s overal power.
When the news reached Mo Xiaotian, he was also dumbfounded. He did not expect that even before the war had begun, all the martial practitioners he sent were gone.
"Is Ye Liuyun’s strength that strong?"
He began to reassess Ye Liuyun as well.
Mo Xiaotian immediately ordered his army to hold up in a city, refraining from launching an attack. He only sent out scouts to probe the real power of Ye Liuyun’s army.
However, none of the scouts sent out returned. All of them were held captive by the soul cultivators led by Liu Yang.
On the other hand, Ye Liuyun out on his concealcape and ventured to the enemy’s base. After releasing the Devil Vine, he brought his clone, Liang Xue, Lei Ming, the Dragon Lady and the otheres to infiltrate the enemy camp commencing a unique and bloody battle.
Ye Liuyun’s Demon Slayer, Starrazor of his clone, Fairy Clan excalibur of Liang Xue, Thunder Hammer of Lei Meing and the Tenfold Power Brace of the Dragon Lady were all precious treasure that allowed them to challenge those beyond their levels.
Sheltered by the Devil vine, they could ensure their safety. The strength of the devil vine now was no weaker than the jet-black tier elders of the Fairy Clan.
Moreover, he could initiate attacks in multiple places simultaneously, making his battle power formidable.
Whenever the praetorian expers came to aid, Ye Liuyun would release the fifteen Fairy Clan elders located in his spatial world to join in the battle.
They needed this practice after a long period without any battles. By experiencing more battles, their combat abilities could be quickly enhanced and helped them to recover their previous battle instincts.
Among them, Xuan Yun, Xuan Song and Xuan Feng, who were often called upon by Ye Liuyun to fight, had distinctly faster responses than the others.
They were like a pack of hungry wolves charging into a flock of sheep. Ye Liuyun and his clone could wield their sword intention and spatial force without holding back while the Devil Vine could gain its power from the battle.
Eventually, Ye Liuyun and his associates exhausted all their genuine energy and completely satiated the devil vine.
After a thorough and exhilarating battle, they managed to safely withdraw under the cover of their strong allies. Soon after, Ye Liuyun and his allies along with the devil vine retreated into the spatial world, disappearing after donning the concealcloak.
The Revival Dynasty’s army had no courage to pursue without the proctection of the experts.
But Ye Liuyun did not return to Inferno city. He simply used the concealcloak to return to the enemy camp, transforming into the image of enemy soldiers using the Phantom Illusion, blending within the enemy camp.
