The five hundred thousand main force troops of the Fire Seal Dynasty—Ye Liuyun hadn’t left a single prisoner alive, annihilating them all.
He had also seized the planet’s origin power, then ordered Cui Daoran to dispatch troops to protect the Death Legion while clearing out the cultivators who fled after the planet’s collapse.
Their army reorganized and immediately pushed toward the next target. They directly occupied another planet, sending Li Zhaoyuan with eighty thousand soldiers to purge the entire world—driving away its inhabitants and plundering all resources.
The main force temporarily rested there, awaiting completion of missions by other armies.
Those five routes of surrendered troops destroyed the imperial guard warships, captured the surrendering soldiers, then began sweeping across their assigned planets. The second clone led array masters from planet to planet, breaking formations and claiming worlds—leaving absolutely nothing for the Fire Seal Dynasty in their wake.
This time, they had captured nearly two hundred thousand praetorian. Ye Liuyun remained consistent: letting other armies choose first, eliminating lower-realm soldiers.
Ultimately, those six surrendered legions ended up with no soldier below Unity Realm Seventh Layer—a tremendous boost in strength.
Yu Xiaofeng placed all six armies under Jiang Yuanhai’s unified command. But he gave them a peculiar task: troop training.
"You have three months to reduce six hundred thousand troops down to three hundred thousand. Fail this training objective, and every single one of you commanders will be executed together!
We want elite soldiers—not praetorian who collapse at first contact despite their high cultivation realms!"
One commander refused to accept this and immediately argued that his men were already elite. Under his command, these soldiers fought far stronger than praetorian.
Ye Liuyun promptly had him lead one hundred thousand troops against Xiao Heng’s one hundred thousand. The result: that commander’s forces were utterly routed until only fifty thousand remained, while Xiao Heng’s losses didn’t even reach ten thousand.
Only then did Ye Liuyun halt the battle and coldly ask that commander: "These are your so-called elite troops?"
The commander’s face flushed crimson as he quietly explained: "Our unit was only recently reorganized..."
Ye Liuyun didn’t let him finish—a single blade stroke cleaved that commander in two.
"Don’t waste my breath. Fail your mission, and you other commanders will join him!" Ye Liuyun glared at the remaining commanders until genuine fear rose from their hearts. No one dared argue further; they immediately set about training their troops.
They studied various methods and referenced Ye Liuyun’s previous training regimens—having soldiers fight each other relentlessly. Individual combat formation battles rotating constantly without slightest negligence.
Their eliminated soldiers were handed over to Pei Yong for selection by various armies through combat matchups Even Cui Daoran’s fifty-thousand-strong force received orders for reduction from Ye Liuyun
"Your cultivation realm is too low Raise it quickly Then incorporate your reduced forces into Black Armor Elite Regiment You’ll lead them going forward"
Among all commanders Ye Lioyun found Cui Daoran particularly agreeable After prolonged tempering his banditry had diminished considerably plus he’d grown more aware military discipline importance
Cui Daoran never expected such recognition He cheerfully entered clone Spatial World accelerated cultivation His fifty-thousand army began combat drills ultimately retaining twenty-thousand strongest incorporated into Black Armor Elite Regiment
Cui Daoran became commander thirty-thousand-strong Black Armor Elite Regiment
Two demon legions finally stopped expanding reaching fifty-thousand each Massive battle casualties provided cultivation resources Demon realms rapidly advanced
Li Zhaoyuan legion expanded one-hundred-thousand One realm tier below Xiao Heng forces though soldier morale remained excellent Both Ye Lioyun Yu Xiaofeng treated these legions Death Legion reserve applying identical standards
Yu Xiaofeng issued orders having both armies advance alternately attacking planets continuously without rest periods fighting while recuperating Resources obtained independently
These two forces faced endless combat clearing each planet encountering occasional imperial guard reinforcements Yet Ye Lioyun Yu Xiaofeng provided neither troop replacements nor resources everything acquired independently Through prolonged tempering both legions grew increasingly iron-blooded killing intent battle spirit strengthening progressively
Pei Yong led his men to follow Xiao Heng and Li Zhaoyuan, sending captured martial cultivators of comparable realms to the Death Legion for practice. The Death Legion remained focused on cultivating and fighting within the clone’s spatial world, raising their realms and strength.
After these 150,000 soldiers cultivated the Taixu Qi Refining Technique, their realm advancement became even faster. With no shortage of resources or sparring partners, they only needed to focus on cultivation, so their strength improved rapidly.
Yu Xiaofeng and other commanders were also taking advantage of this time to accelerate their cultivation, not daring to slacken for a moment.
Ye Liuyun directly appeared in the central army camp to draw the Fire Seal Dynasty’s attention.
The Fire Seal Dynasty had sent numerous powerful martial cultivators for sneak attacks and assassinations, so he and his clones also had no shortage of practice targets—conveniently capturing quite a few as well.
He already had over eighty powerful martial cultivators by his side, all among the strongest in strength. More than ten of them were even the absolute strongest at the peak of ninth level Return Origin Realm.
The peak-realm ferocious beasts around him had been temporarily distributed to the three commanders Xiao Heng, Li Zhaoyuan, and Jiang Yuanhai to prevent them from being assassinated. Combined with the many ninth-level soldiers around them, Ye Liuyun no longer needed to worry about their safety.
The demon beasts and women were all cultivating within his spatial world, using battle platforms to hone their combat skills.
After being ambushed by powerful enemies last time, they all felt greater urgency; no one slacked off, as none wanted Ye Liuyun to be distracted during future battles because of them.
Jiang Yuantang also had Jiang Yunmo contact Ye Liuyun threatening him not to act against the Fire Seal Dynasty.
But Ye Liuyun directly replied to Jiang Yuantang: "If you want to kill those around me you’ll pay the price. I’ll stop when you surrender."
After speaking he crushed Jiang Yunmo’s voice transmission talisman ignoring them further. Since relations had already soured there was no point arguing right or wrong—just fight directly would suffice.
Now throughout the entire Fire Seal Galaxy word had spread everywhere. They said he directly annihilated 500000 troops leaving not a single survivor then killed martial cultivators planet by planet seizing resources painting him as a demon. All manner of slanderous news about him flooded everywhere.
Ye Liuyun didn’t care at all. Rather after gaining this notorious reputation far fewer martial cultivators dared target him which he actually found quite satisfactory.
