Lord of All Gods

Chapter 1423: Chapter 1423 Abundant Resources

"If you don’t want to kill them, you can keep them to have in your army!" Ye Liuyun proposed.

However, Qu Jing didn’t dare to answer this question. His resources were not enough to support such a large number of soldiers.

"I can talk the talk, but I’ll also walk the dark path!" Ye Liuyun chuckled at himself self-deprecatingly.

He was aware that once he had taken all those resources, it was time for him to leave.

He and Qu Jing were both different. Qu Jing was too kind, which made him fear him.

Ye Liuyun was inherently kind, but he could discern clearly who was good and evil!

Take those soldiers for example. With a higher realm than ordinary people, once released, they would lack constraints and survival resources. Naturally, they would relentlessly plunder weaker individuals, resorting to arson, killing, and looting, much like locusts sweeping across the border, causing more casualties.

The sounds of battle persisted for a while before he gradually got used to them. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

Qu Jing’s soldiers remained within the military camp, hesitant to explore outside for investigation.

After Asura and the Yin-souls thoroughly swept the area and verified that nothing was missing, they returned to the Hundred Refinements Soul Flag.

Feral beasts and puppets were gathering corpses from all around as reserves.

Ye Liuyun believed that the current food supply was sufficient, so he used the Devil Qi to hatch a thousand Devil Beast eggs. He intended to take advantage of Devil Crystals to speed up their growth.

The Xuankong Stone was already filled with Devil Beasts, leaving Ye Liuyun with no choice but to move the initial thousand Devil Beasts to the Spatial World to accommodate the newly hatched Devil Beasts.

Once Ye Liuyun recalled all the wild beasts, Qu Jing initiated the mobilization of soldiers to collect equipment and take control of the defense here.

Following that, Qu Jing quickly began purchasing prisoners on death row to strengthen his defenses.

Upon seeing that everything was in order, Ye Liuyun hurried alone to the mineral vein, feeling a surge of excitement.

These mineral vein resources were enough for him and the people to practice for a long time. With these resources, there was no need to worry about future shortages!

"Boom!"

In front of the Fire Crystal Mountains, another burst of flames erupted, filled with hot magma.

Ye Liuyun wrapped himself in the Golden Crow sacred fire and plunged directly into the magma.

Then, he kept descending into the magma. The Devil Qi in the magma grew denser, causing the flames to shift to a combination of black and red.

As he sank, he continued to absorb the two powers of fire and Devil Qi.

About half an hour later, he eventually descended into the underground mineral vein. The Devil Crystal mineral vein was situated within the inner circle of the Fire Crystal mineral vein, with the two being relatively close.

Looking at the fiery red mineral vein before him, Ye Liuyun suppressed the excitement within and started gathering it into the Spatial World. Then, he gathered some Devil Crystal mineral veins and created a passage to the spiritual stone mineral veins.

As soon as the mineral vein was opened, abundant spiritual energy surged toward him.

Ye Liuyun could sense every pore in his body gladfully absorbing the spiritual energy.

Ye Liuyun promptly released Liang Xue and the others, saying, "Liang Xue, bring Dragon Lady, Tiandao, puppets, and feral beasts inside. We’ll collect the spiritual vein. Lei Ming, take the Devil Beast to gather the Devil Crystal, and I’ll lead the fire wolf to collect the Alora Crystal. Let’s divide the tasks."

As the saw the plentiful resources here, everyone erupted in cheers. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

"This is great! No more worries about resources!" Lei Ming exclaimed with joy.

"Hurry up and put up an act, just to avoid any future troubles!" Ye Liuyun urged them.

Ye Liuyun made a rough estimate, if they wanted to install all these resources, it would take approximately half a month.

Outside, Qu Jing had just assumed control and the combat strength was not formidable, so there were still risks. Therefore, all resources must be gathered as swiftly as possible.

Everyone acted, with the puppets and Devil Beasts taking the spotlight.

Ye Liuyun and his clone also unleashed the fire wolf, exerting their full strength to capture the fire crystals.

No one bothered with absorption or cultivation; everyone concentrated on collecting resources first.

Their realm was much higher than that of ordinary miners, and they frequently mined a large section of ore, swiftly packing it up with each movement.

On the other hand, Xie Tianqi had returned to the empire, portraying Ye Liuyun as more terrifying than a foreign race. With both Devil Beasts and Yin-souls, this posed such a significant threat that even the empire dared not to be careless.

Furthermore, the complete annihilation of the 400,000-strong army showed how ruthless Ye Liuyun was.

As the empire intensified the search for Ye Liuyun, it swiftly commanded the cities around Phoenix River to launch proactive attacks, denying Qu Jing’s army a moment to catch their breath.

This time, the empire dispatched 500,000 armored troops and 200 martial practitioners at the Sacred Majesty level to advance toward the Phoenix River, aiming to seize control of the entire Phoenix River area in one fell swoop.

This armored army was renowned in the Northern Ghostwing Empire and was considered almost invisible.

Moreover, the commander overseeing the troops this time was none other than the renowned general of the Northern Ghostwing Empire, the victorious Wang Jiayun.

Upon receiving the order, Jiayun promptly led his army and set off. Not only was this army well-equipped, but even their battleships were among the fastest.

The mighty Wudi, located far away in the city of Haotian, immediately notified Ye Liuyun upon receiving the information.

He was aware that the empire had deployed troops, but he didn’t know the details regarding their specific strength and numbers.

Furthermore, the army around the Northern Ghostwing River was expected to arrive shortly.

Ye Liuyun was occupied here, and the forces around him couldn’t be mobilized at all.

So, he instructed his clone to bring the Hundred Refinements Soul Flag to assist Qu Jing, as long as they could endure until he completed the collection of all resources here.

Once the clone left, he immediately relayed the information to Qu Jing.

Qu Jing promptly sought information from several acquaintances using the Sound Transmission Talisman. Some people, in any case, disclosed the truth to him.

"Five hundred thousand armored troops!"

Upon learning the news, Wen Chenggang promptly urged Qu Jing to abandon the Northern Ghostwing River. With their current strength, they were undoubtedly incapable of defending this location.

"We might manage against regular soldiers by relying on the terrain, but what about the armored troops? It’ll be like adults pummeling children!"

They all knew the formidable strength of the Ironclad Army. Both their equipment and combat prowess surpassed theirs by a large margin.

The soldiers of the Ironclad Army had the lowest realm in the Astral Realm, and the most elite 50,000 black-armored soldiers had the lowest realms of all in the Yin-yang Realm.

Just these 50,000 black-armored troops alone could defeat them.

"The empire is determined to destroy us this time! They’ve deployed the Ironclad Army! The Ironclad Army is an elite force that has been battling against the Southern Empire on the front lines!" Qu Jing was also pondering whether to abandon this location.

"But if we abandon our defense here now, not to mention the armored army, even the armies from nearby cities can overwhelm us along the way!"

Qu Jing sighed. They had no way out now.

From the moment he chose to rebel against the empire, they were destined to face this type of encirclement and suppression.
