Chapter 2970: Chapter 2970
On Ye Liuyun’s battlefield, Broken Horn also unleashed over a thousand Unity Realm experts from the alien legion, all attacking the altar together.
Ye Liuyun simultaneously launched a soul attack, targeting the alien souls at the Dominator Ninth Level first, devouring them one by one.
The combined strike of the thousand Unity Realm alien experts shattered the multiple layers of protective formations around the altar in a single blow. The altar itself was instantly obliterated, and the entire planet began to crack under their assault, collapsing piece by piece.
Ye Liuyun and his forces immediately took to the skies, continuing their battle while swiftly absorbing the planet’s core energy. At the same time, he contacted Broken Horn: *"This seems like a trap. Take the Lynx Battleship and lead the army to monitor the forces already engaged in battle. Keep an eye on their surroundings—the aliens might use their warships’ speed to flank us."*
Broken Horn acknowledged the order without hesitation, recalling the alien elites and piloting the Lynx Battleship forward, positioning himself on the army’s flank to observe the battlefield’s movements.
Even after wiping out the enemy forces here, Ye Liuyun didn’t rest. He continued rapidly consuming the souls of the fallen. The fact that the aliens had set a trap, only for it to be broken so easily, made him suspect they had another scheme in play—things couldn’t be this straightforward.
*Where is that Bone Beast legion hiding?* If they couldn’t locate them, the threat would linger indefinitely.
By now, the vanguard had already spread out, and the battle was fully underway—retreat was no longer an option.
The other armies were advancing smoothly as well. The Unity Realm Threefold demonic beasts effortlessly destroyed every altar they encountered, with the defending aliens utterly powerless to stop them.
The Second Avatar had already summoned all the demonic beasts to reinforce the Exorcist Corps. With the fewest numbers, they bore the heaviest pressure, and Ye Liuyun feared their losses would be too severe.
Yu Xiaofeng, while directing the main forces, kept a vigilant watch on the battlefield’s periphery, wary of an ambush by the Bone Beast legion. Only when the alien Lynx Battleships arrived did he breathe a slight sigh of relief.
Ye Liuyun’s group, though the smallest in number, faced tens of thousands of aliens—they couldn’t wipe them all out instantly, only kill as swiftly as possible. Within moments, every alien above Dominator Seventh Level here had been slaughtered.
The Second Avatar had already dispatched the demonic beasts under its command to reinforce the Exorcist Corps. Meanwhile, the Vanguard Corps, boasting over a thousand warriors at the Harmonization Realm, was also slaughtering the alien forces with no signs of danger. At the moment, he wasn’t overly concerned about these two legions.
“Strange... who exactly are these aliens trying to ambush with this trap?”
At that moment, Ye Liuyun also paused, scanning the surroundings with his golden pupils. The remaining alien forces weren’t particularly strong, so he had little interest in them. Instead, he focused on surveying the battlefield.
After a quick sweep, he spotted the issue.
“So they were lying in wait for me! It seems these aliens have a deep understanding of our battle formations and tactics.”
His golden pupils locked onto a distant speck that rapidly grew in size, revealing itself as a new-model alien warship in the blink of an eye.
“The alien main force is coming to engage—the Bone Beast Legion has appeared!” He immediately issued orders to the alien legion under his command.
Afterward, he instructed the Second Avatar to withdraw from combat and monitor the periphery of the battlefield near the main army, ensuring no additional alien forces launched a surprise attack.
The alien legion swiftly advanced, intercepting the approaching warship. However, upon spotting the broken-horned Spirit Fox warship charging toward them, the enemy vessel abruptly halted.
Before the two warships could clash, the Second Avatar relayed another message—it had detected yet another new-model alien warship barreling toward their position.
This left even seasoned commanders like Yu Xiaofeng baffled about the aliens’ true target.
The aliens’ tactic of sowing confusion—mixing truth with deception—had genuinely muddled their judgment.
Yu Xiaofung could only deploy two Spirit Fox warships to intercept the incoming alien vessel.
Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun cast a glance at the battle on his front and immediately ordered the alien Spirit Fox warship to return and assist the main army.
“Go without worry. The alien warship here likely only carries a few elite warriors. Otherwise, upon seeing the broken-horned ship, they would have disembarked and formed ranks by now.”
"But what if it’s a trap?" Yu Xiaofeng voiced his concern that Ye Liuyun might be ambushed.
Ye Liuyun reassured them, "Don’t worry. Even if their entire army were here, I could hold out until Broken Horn arrives."
"Understood!" Broken Horn responded immediately before rushing off to guard their main forces.
Meanwhile, the alien warship on the opposite side, seeing their departure, immediately turned its course toward Ye Liuyun.
Without hesitation, Ye Liuyun deployed two Spirit Cat warships to intercept it while ordering the others to accelerate the extermination of the remaining aliens.
Thunder Roar, Dragon Maiden, and the other beasts swiftly unleashed their full power—massive arcs of lightning, sweeping dragon tails, and the Nine-Headed Demon Dragon’s sonic attacks—slaughtering the aliens in droves. The women, having already regrouped near Ye Liuyun, were promptly withdrawn into his spatial realm.
With the women evacuated, Vermilion Bird’s flames and White Tiger’s golden beams rained down upon the remaining aliens.
Through his golden pupils, Ye Liuyun confirmed that the enemy warship carried only a minor alien commander and a handful of Unity Realm elites. His earlier suspicion seemed correct—this vessel likely housed only the strongest warriors, while the commander’s spatial realm might conceal additional forces.
The alien commander, underestimating the Spirit Cat warships, attempted to ram through their blockade. Though familiar with their defensive capabilities, he was unaware of the recent upgrades.
A single exchange was all it took for regret to set in. Their warship’s defensive formations shattered instantly under the barrage, while the Spirit Cat ships remained unscathed.
Panicked, the aliens abandoned ship just before the second Spirit Cat warship obliterated their vessel. The two interceptors then withdrew, leaving the stranded aliens to their fate.
Meanwhile, Thunder Roar, Dragon Maiden, and the other Unity Realm beasts took their positions behind Ye Liuyun, battle-ready.
As the alien elites closed in, their commander suddenly unleashed his spatial realm, releasing a hundred skeletal cavalry—each rider wielding a spear, their mounts hollow-eyed bone beasts infused with the souls of savage creatures. Both riders and beasts radiated the aura of the Unity Realm’s first tier.
This skeletal legion, a hundred strong, exuded a murderous presence that rivaled even the elite Blade Corps, their collective bloodlust piercing the heavens.
Mounting his own Bone Beast and brandishing his spear, the alien commander roared, signaling the charge.
The skeletal horde answered with a unified howl, surging forward as the alien soldiers leveled their spears. Once momentum took hold, stopping such a force would be impossible.
