Jiang Yunmo didn’t want Ye Liuyun’s army to be annihilated, so during negotiations with Ye Liuyun, she inadvertently revealed quite a bit about the dynasty’s movements.

Ye Liuyun originally had no interest in wasting words with her. Ever since Jiang Yunmo dissolved their equal contract, Ye Liuyun no longer considered her a friend or partner—merely a relationship of mutual exploitation.

But seeing that Jiang Yunmo’s words still contained valuable information, he patiently endured and extracted everything she knew.

Afterward, Ye Liuyun and his clone took turns monitoring the starry sky. They would kill anyone who approached immediately, leaving no survivors, to prevent anyone from using a spatial world to bring people in and catch them off guard.

Finally, he had the army leave only the camp tents behind while the soldiers returned to the spatial world to cultivate and prepare for battle. Only he remained in the main tent, waiting for the dynasty’s experts to arrive.

He also wanted to test himself against the Fire Seal Dynasty’s experts and see just how large the gap in strength was between them.

The dynasty’s martial cultivator experts didn’t make Ye Liuyun wait long. Soon, a late-stage ninth-level cultivator appeared near the planet where Ye Liuyun was located. At that time, the first clone was on guard in the starry sky.

The first clone was practicing with the power of heaven and earth, using it to hide himself in the starry sky.

That expert was still more than an hour away from Ye Liuyun, and seemingly by accident, his gaze swept past where the clone was.

Although the first clone had been discovered, he clearly felt a wave of heaven and earth power sweep over him.

"He found me—seems his heaven and earth power isn’t weak either!" The first clone immediately notified Ye Liuyun.

Facing such a powerful opponent, Ye Liuyun didn’t dare be careless. He immediately stopped cultivating and came out to face the enemy together with his clone.

When that expert discovered Ye Liuyun, he suddenly wrapped himself in the power of heaven and earth and vanished into the starry sky.

He was still quite far from Ye Liuyun’s position, and Ye Liuyun’s heaven and earth power wasn’t as strong as his, so he could only use his spiritual sense to probe and lock onto the expert’s location.

His soul power had now grown strong enough to detect even the various elemental forces in the air, so even if this person wrapped himself in the power of heaven and earth, Ye Liuyun could still find him.

He merely locked onto the martial cultivator with his spiritual sense, sensing how he manipulated the power of heaven and earth. His golden pupils also revealed the expert’s appearance—a thin old man with a wispy goatee that he frequently stroked with his hand.

When he drew closer, the first clone suddenly donned the Demon Hunter Armor, took out the Demon Hunter Bow, and fired an arrow. The Demon Hunter Bow and Demon Hunter Armor were a set; wearing the armor amplified the bow’s power.

Knowing his heaven and earth power was no match for this opponent, Ye Liuyun planned to first use the Demon Hunter Bow to force him to reveal himself or injure him, then engage him in combat using heaven and earth power.

Unexpectedly, the goateed old man’s surrounding heaven and earth momentum was too powerful. Although it exposed his position, the Demon Hunter Bow failed to harm him—the arrow was deflected by the heaven and earth momentum around him.

"What powerful heaven and earth power!"

Sensing his heaven and earth power, Ye Liuyun couldn’t help but imitate it, sending a palm strike mobilizing heaven and earth momentum toward the goateed old man.

"Hahaha!"

Seeing Ye Liuyun’s heaven and earth power, the goateed old man burst into mocking laughter.

"Such weak heaven and earth power, and you still have the nerve to attack!"

The goateed old man immediately struck back, sending a palm attack mobilizing heaven and earth momentum toward Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun’s soul power, however, clearly sensed how he generated force and mobilized heaven and earth momentum. He immediately sent another palm strike, mobilizing even stronger heaven and earth momentum to meet the expert’s attack.

Two thunderous booms rang out. The goateed old man’s single palm dissolved both of Ye Liuyun’s successive strikes, and by the time it reached Ye Liuyun, little force remained.

Ye Liuyun followed his example, calling upon heaven and earth momentum to protect his body, and blocked that palm as well. The two sides were actually evenly matched.

The goateed old man hadn’t expected that Ye Liuyun would learn so quickly, his heaven and earth power improving dramatically in an instant.

At this moment, the first clone also put away the Demon Hunter Bow and switched to the Heaven Devourer, sending out a blade intent infused with divine essence and heaven and earth momentum, slashing toward the goateed old man once more.

Ye Liuyun and his clone’s blade intent were already formidable, and now infused with the momentum of heaven and earth, even the goateed old man had to face it with full force. Thus, he had no choice but to reveal himself, striking out with a palm to meet Ye Liuyun’s blade.

At the same time, Ye Liuyun also launched a palm strike, employing Spatial Force, intending to directly slap that palm of heaven and earth power onto the goateed man.

But what he hadn’t expected was that this combined force of his palm didn’t take effect. The momentum of heaven and earth he had gathered completely vanished after being shifted by Spatial Force.

The goateed man also sensed the spatial fluctuation and immediately went into full defense. The momentum of heaven and earth around him suddenly began to rotate, instantly doubling in strength.

But what surprised him as well was that after the spatial fluctuation passed, absolutely nothing happened. So he was quite baffled, wondering what trick Ye Liuyun was trying to pull.

Ye Liuyun smiled awkwardly, having his clone continue slashing with the blade to keep the goateed man occupied, while he himself continued practicing. This time, he first familiarized himself with the power of heaven and earth momentum palm by palm, then used Spatial Force to shift it bit by bit.

However, the bit of heaven and earth power he managed to shift over at the beginning couldn’t possibly harm the goateed old man.

Only then did the old man realize that Ye Liuyun was just beginning to practice. Earlier, Ye Liuyun had been too greedy, using too much force at once, and hadn’t actually sent any power over at all.

This infuriated him so much that even his beard curled up.

But if he wanted to hit Ye Liuyun, he couldn’t reach him. The clone’s blade intent alone was enough to keep him busy, and on top of that, as Ye Liuyun comprehended the momentum of heaven and earth, the clone’s momentum grew increasingly stronger, leaving him with no spare attention for Ye Liuyun himself.

So gradually, he stopped defending against Ye Liuyun’s attacks, just letting him play around on the side by himself.

But Ye Liuyun’s performance was unstable. Sometimes when he struck out with a palm, it carried no Spatial Force at all, so the palm force was entirely heaven and earth momentum, forcing the old man to divide his attention to defend.

"Damned brat!" the goateed old man cursed, then directly released his soul, charging toward the clone’s sea of consciousness.

Ye Liuyun’s previous battle process had already been relayed back to the dynasty by those defeated commanders, so the powerhouses who came this time all knew that his sea of consciousness contained treasures that defended against soul attacks, and dared not easily attempt to attack him.

This goateed old man only dared to attack the clone, intending to eliminate the clone first before focusing on dealing with Ye Liuyun.

But the result was that as soon as his soul rushed into the clone’s sea of consciousness, it became trapped in overlapping void spaces, never to escape. At the same time, the poisonous soul flower and nether ghost flame contaminated his soul, causing it to be annihilated in no time.
