Chapter 2296: Chapter 2296 Training The New Comers
Ye Liuyun immediately halted the advance of the demonic beastman army and demanded the Central Empire to send representative for negotiations.
When the envoys arrived, their demands were surprisingly straightforward. They simply wanted their lives to be spared and to be let go.
Ye Liuyun had not expected their requests to be so simple.
"How many Devil Clan soldiers do you currently have in the city?" Ye Liuyun inquired.
"Fifty thousand of us." The other party answered clearly.
"Hand those fifty thousand people over to me. I’ll train them to become elite soldiers in my army. How does that sound?"
"Do you have enough food?" Their concerns were basic. No matter where they went or who they fought for, they were contented as long as there was enough food.
Moreover, both men and women served in the Devil Clan and Devil Clan Beastman army despite being in different rankings. This did not hinder them to reproduce and thrive. The female soldiers combact power was no inferior to that of the males as well.
"Of course! I wouldn’t have you fight on an empty stomach. Plus, I’ll teach them new techniques to practice, enhancing their strength!" Ye Liuyun explained.
"Like those beastmen?" The Devil Clan asked in surprised.
"Yes! I’ll provide them with resources and equipment as well!" Ye Liuyun confirmed.
"We agree. We’ll surrender immediately!" The representative readily agreed.
"All right, go back and prepare. Have your soldiers remove their armors and weapons as those are no longer needed. I’ll custom made for them later." Ye Liuyun said decisively.
The representative quickly returned to the city and led everyone out to surrender, laying down their weapons and equipments.
And the number of those who surrendered was not fifty thousand but as much as seventy thousand.
When the negotiator relayed Ye Liuyun’s terms upon returning, it prompted not only the royal family but also the common folk to surrender. Not a single osul was left out.
Once these Devil Clan shed their armor, even Ye Liuyun could not distinguish them from the civilians.
"So many? This is way more than fifty thousand!" Ye Liuyun complained to the Demon King, Ke Meng.
"Just eliminate and consume the weak!" Ke Meng replied nonchalantly.
"..."
Ye Liuyun knew it was futile to discuss humanity with them and that he could only gradually influence them.
"Ke Meng, you will lead this group from now on. You are their Grand Commander!"
Ye Liuyun appointed a leader, naming them the Devil Clan Legion. He then had them collectively sign a Divine soul loyalty contract and implanted a slave seal on Ke Meng.
The Devil Clan cooperated fully, following Ye Liuyun’s instructions completely and their eyes were filled with anticipation for their future.
Subsequently, Ye Liuyun led them away, designating a separate area as their training base.
He also brought along the twenty thousand devil clan beastman, not wanting them to act out again and allocated a specific training ground for them as well.
Next, Ye Liuyun taught them some Devil Clan’s cultivation techniques while assigning the demonic beastman troop to mine for him.
He began cultivating with these Devil Clan, waiting for them to develop divine soul power before equipping them with interspatial rings.
The mined ores were immediately handed over to Yu Xiaofeng, who sought out the craftsmen of the Alliance of Goddesses to custom-make suitable armor and weapons for these Devil Clan.
Afterward, Ye Liuyun supervised the Devil Clan, conducting eliminations every three months. Those who lagged in their cultivation progress were promptly removed.
However, Ye Liuyun made sure to protect the younger descendants of the Devil Clan, shielding them from the harsh elimination process.
He even relocated them into his spatial world, where he personally taught them the how to interat with human and social conduct.
To ensure a balanced environment, he also recruited an equal number of young Demonic Beastman for training.
Once the Devil Clan had settled into their training routines and adapted to the rigorous regimen, Ye Liuyun returned to the Accord Dynasty.
Before his departure, he arranged for the Devil Clan Beastman army to provide the training soldiers with essential resources and foods. He also had Accord Dynasty transport several Devil Crystal mineral veins to the area, ensuring a steady supply of cultivation resources.
The younglings of the Devil Clan and Beastman were all brought back to the Accord Dynasty, where they were integrated with human society. This was intended to develop their spiritual intelligence and influence their lifestyle habits.
Ye Liuyun himself resumed his cultivation journey.
However, he found that the effectiveness of Emerald Essence Liquid had diminished to less than a third of its previous potency when he used it again. His realm showed no signs of advancement and the enhancement of his physical strength was also significantly reduced.
Subsequent uses of the Emerald Essesnce Liquid yielded almost no benefits for either his realm or his physical body.
Consequently, Ye Liuyun distributed the remaining Emerald Essence Liquid to the Death Legion and the Beastman Legion led by Yuan Hao.
He then embarked on explorations of various secret realms, seeking to enhance his combat prowess through battles and perilous encounters.
His Spatial Force, Power of heaven and earth and Elemental Spirit Secret Skill continued to grow, far surpassing the limitations of his current realm.
Meanwhile, Liang Xue, Lei Ming, the Dragon Lady and Ye Tiandao had all advanced to the late stages of the ninth tier. Ye Liuyun found himself lagging behind due to his stagnant realm yet again.
Despite this, he refrained from forcing a breakthrough. Instead, he focused on compressing his advance energy, continuously improving its quality.
The awe-inspiring strength of the experts he encountered and the shocking capabilities of the Devil Vines fueled his ambition, setting him on a path toward even greater goals.
The women who had arrived in the God Realm alongside Ye Liuyun had all made significant progress in their cultivation following him. They had reached the mid to late stage of eighth tier, nearly on the same par as him.
However, the one who truly astonished Ye Liuyun was Orchid. The sealed genuine energy within her had gradually been released, allowing her to break through to the seventh tier of the Immortal Realm in just half a year. Her speed was reallt astonishing.
It seemed it would not be long before she surpassed Ye Liuyun himself.
As for the younglings of the Devil Clan and Beastmen, Ye Liuyun had left them in his spatial world, entrusting their care to Orchid, Ye Ling and Songstress.
He had noticed that the children had a more profound influence on the Devil Clan and Beastmen’s offspring when they were around.
Meanwhile, Ye Ling’s ability to increase the number of Alora Crystals had also greatly improved. As a result, the spatial world was nearly overflowing with high-grade spirit crystals and they were all buried everywhere beneath the ground.
This abundance of resources ensured that Ye Liuyun could continue to expand the population within his spatial world.
Many of the indigenous inhabitants Ye Liuyun had taken in had already broken through to the immortal realm and had begun to settle down.
However, the spatial world was also home to numerous feral beasts, whose cultivation levels far surpassed those of the inhabitants.
To ensure their safety, Ye Liuyun designated a specific area for the settlers, forbidding the feral beasts from hunting at that area.
With everything in order, Ye Liuyun prepared to embark on another journey through the stars. This time, he intended to head in the direction of the planet they were guarding to assess the situation.
He tasked Ton Xin, Qiong Qi and other weapon-refining master with building another Cosmos Batteship capable of carrying a hundred thousand soldiers, along with one battleship for twenty thousand and two battleships for two thousand each, in preparation for forming a cosmos fleet.
Additionally, the fifty thousand praetorian under Man Feng needed custom armor, weapons and equipments.
