Lord of All Gods

Ye Liuyun couldn’t even be bothered with idle chatter. He issued a direct order to his own people: "Kill!"

A scion of an aristocratic family, a city lord’s son—since they dared to target him, he’d kill them without a second thought. He had already slain princes; why would he fear these people?

All the powerhouses on his side immediately charged toward the cultivators Jiang Yunhan had released. Meanwhile, the black-armored elite soldiers lunged at Cern Qifeng and the others.

Cern Qifeng’s group originally possessed low cultivation realms and stood no chance against these black-armored elites. They immediately surrendered and begged for mercy, but Ye Liuyun remained unmoved. The soldiers showed no hesitation either—one palm strike or blade swing killed a man, instantly slaughtering every cultivator until only Jiang Yunhan remained.

"You, come here. Are you waiting for me to personally invite you?" Ye Liuyun looked at Jiang Yunhan with a cold smile.

Jiang Yunhan trembled violently as he walked toward Ye Liuyun, voluntarily producing all the resources on his person without keeping anything back, even handing over his Interspatial Ring along with everything else.

Ye Liuyun used his Scarlet Soul pupils to cast an illusion technique on him. After confirming that Jiang Yunhan had surrendered all his resources, he made him hand over the poisonous soul flower in his sea of consciousness, along with his defensive and offensive treasures.

Afterward, he collected the resources, devoured Jiang Yunhan’s main soul, discarded his voice transmission talisman and Interspatial Ring, then had the Snow Wolf claw out his primal core. Only then did he stuff Jiang Yunhan’s body into a Interspatial Ring.

He feared that killing Jiang Yunhan too early would cause the dynasty to dispatch troops to guard the secret realm’s exit, making his departure troublesome.

After several of the powerhouses Jiang Yunhan had released were killed, the survivors realized they couldn’t win or escape the encirclement of the black-armored elites, so they immediately surrendered.

Ye Liuyun planted soul seals on them one by one, keeping them outside to scout the path for him.

He had his men collect all the storage rings from the corpses and recalled his own people.

"Are these forty-plus people enough for exploration?" Only then did he turn to Luo Yu with a smile.

Luo Yu was still in shock.

"You crippled the prince?" she murmured to Ye Liuyun, completely ignoring the others.

"I’ve already killed one prince of the Fire Seal Dynasty and robbed another. Crippling one more makes no difference! This guy wasn’t valued anyway; collecting ransom would be too much trouble. I might as well cripple him now and kill him when we leave!"

Ye Liuyun couldn’t care less. But his words made the forty-plus powerhouses left outside shudder in terror.

He had the newly subjugated group split into two teams—one scouting ahead and one guarding the rear—and continued the expedition as if nothing had happened.

Luo Yu followed Ye Liuyun in a daze, still recovering from the shock of how casually he had disposed of a prince.

When Ye Liuyun reached the palace entrance, he left ten powerhouses behind: "Stay here and kill all the cultivators coming from behind. Not a single one survives, so no word leaks out!"

"Yes." The ten powerhouses acknowledged, concealing themselves near the palace entrance to wait for other exploring cultivators.

Luo Yu collected herself. Considering Ye Liuyun’s arrangements, she realized he was not only bold and domineering but also extremely cautious. To exit this secret realm, one had to pass through the palace. This way, no one could leak the secret of the cultivation techniques they had obtained.

"No wonder even the Fire Seal Dynasty has headaches dealing with him. Something I took ages to figure out, he arranged casually!" Watching Ye Liuyun from behind, Luo Yu gradually developed admiration for him.

Ye Liuyun paid no attention to her thoughts. The palace interior was completely different from the outside—probably protected by formations, it was clean and tidy everywhere. Though devoid of people, it wasn’t as desolate as the exterior.

He currently spread out his spiritual sense, carefully examining every corner of the palace. He needed to inspect several resource-rich locations carefully, though many areas were shielded by formations, preventing him from probing their contents.

"The treasury, the library... everything is actually still here!"

Just seeing these things made Ye Liuyun feel the trip hadn’t been wasted.

However, after scanning the area and finding no danger whatsoever, he became more cautious instead.

"Go scout ahead, and be careful!" He had the newly captured cultivators continue probing the path forward. Since he couldn’t locate the danger, he could only test it step by step.

The powerhouses also arranged for three men to walk in the very front, with those behind maintaining distance as they cautiously advanced.

However, just as those three people walked into the small square in front of the Front Hall, they stopped to give a warning. Ye Liuyun’s divine sense detected a powerful fluctuation of divine sense emanating from the rooms surrounding the square.

"So many divine sense fluctuations!"

Ye Liuyun was also startled. Based on the number of these divine sense fluctuations, there was definitely more than one person. He looked over with his Golden Pupils and discovered that within the surrounding rooms were sets of golden armor and weapons arranged in rows. Those divine sense fluctuations were emanating from within the armor.

"This place should have been the former garrison of the guards," Ye Liuyun estimated in his mind. The situation in this palace was the same as what he had seen before—it seemed as if everyone had suddenly vanished. Therefore, these suits of armor and weapons had all been left behind in their original positions.

But now, divine sense fluctuations had actually emerged within these armors, and at this moment they all stood up and picked up their weapons. Clearly, residual divine sense still existed from the previous owners of these armors, intending to continue protecting the palace.

Soon, the doors to the guards’ rooms were all opened, and nearly two hundred golden-armored guards charged out. The divine sense within manifested the appearance of the armor’s owners from when they were alive, rushing toward those three martial cultivators to kill them.

"Test their strength!" Ye Liuyun sent a voice transmission to the three martial cultivators at the front.

The three of them also attacked the golden-armored guards, and the guards immediately counterattacked. However, they were only supported by residual divine sense, so their strength was far inferior to when they were alive. Ye Liuyun estimated their combat power to be at the initial stage of the Return to One Ninth Level.

But the grade of their armor and weapons was at the Void Rank. Therefore, their defensive and offensive capabilities were both very strong.

"All of you attack together and try different attack methods to destroy these divine senses!"

Ye Liuyun immediately sent voice transmissions to the others as well.

Thus, the twenty-plus experts at the front all attacked together, attempting with various elemental powers. However, the grade of these guards’ armor was quite high, so elemental powers didn’t deal much damage to them either.

A martial cultivator with a powerful soul reported to Ye Liuyun: "Using soul attacks, we can easily destroy these divine senses." After reporting, he also began rapidly using his soul to destroy these divine senses, and the effect was indeed quite obvious.

Thus, the others also released their souls, almost instantly annihilating the divine senses of these golden-armored guards completely. Experts at the late stage of the Ninth Level, even if their souls were weak, were still much stronger than these divine senses.
