"Good."
Ye Yunfei nodded.
"Go and convey my meaning from before to all members of the Qingyun Army. If anyone wishes to leave, let them go."
Ye Yunfei said.
"Palace Lord Ye, we understand."
The three men, Liu Deming, Mao Wanli, and Gao Hui, turned and left.
"Senior, I will now transmit a breathing and regulation technique to you. During this period, you should enter secluded cultivation within my spatial treasure and first completely heal your injuries. I will refine a batch of medicinal pills for you to consume."
Ye Yunfei said to the grey-robed elder.
"Good."
The grey-robed elder nodded.
Then, Ye Yunfei returned to the main base of the Qingyun Army, entered his own command tent, and then, along with the grey-robed elder, entered the Phantom Tower.
Ye Yunfei sorted through the various cultivation techniques in his memory that were suitable for regulating energy and recuperating from injuries, selected one of them, and imparted it to the grey-robed elder.
"This Lesser Zhoutian Formula is truly marvelous! I estimate it can not only cure my injuries, but also be of tremendous help to my cultivation!"
After repeatedly studying the formula Ye Yunfei had imparted, the grey-robed elder was extremely excited.
"Yes, this Lesser Zhoutian Formula can elevate the quality of your cultivation."
Ye Yunfei nodded.
"Senior, please enter secluded cultivation for now. I will refine a batch of pills for healing your injuries."
Ye Yunfei said.
"Alright."
The grey-robed elder nodded and then began focusing on cultivating the Lesser Zhoutian Formula.
Ye Yunfei found a secluded spot within the Phantom Tower, took out his medicinal cauldron, and began alchemy.
Several days later.
Ye Yunfei had refined a batch of Transformation-Grade Pills!
And most of them were fourth and fifth-grade Transformation Pills!
"Ye Yunfei, you refined these Transformation-Grade Pills yourself? You are actually a fifth-grade Transformation Alchemist?!"
Taking the batch of Transformation-Grade pills Ye Yunfei handed him, the grey-robed elder was utterly astonished.
"Yes."
Ye Yunfei nodded in reply.
"A fifth-grade Transformation Alchemist, within the Canghuang Realm, is enough to become an honored guest of the great sects and clans in the three great star seas!"
The grey-robed elder sighed in admiration.
"Senior, healing is paramount. Please focus on your recovery. Once your body is completely healed, I believe you will soon be able to break through to the Dao Molding Realm."
Ye Yunfei said.
"Ye Yunfei, thank you! If I hadn't met you, I might never have had the chance to break through to the Dao Molding Realm."
The grey-robed elder said gratefully.
After finishing alchemy, Ye Yunfei came out of the Phantom Tower.
"Palace Lord Ye, I have already conveyed your command to all members of the Qingyun Army. Not a single person left! All members of the Qingyun Army have stated they will resolutely follow Palace Lord Ye! Right now, all members of the Qingyun Army are outside Palace Lord Ye's command tent!"
Liu Deming arrived in Ye Yunfei's tent and reported.
"Good, I'll go out and see them."
Ye Yunfei had long sensed that the area outside his tent was densely packed with people.
"Greetings, Palace Lord Ye! All members of the Qingyun Army are willing to follow Palace Lord Ye!"
As soon as Ye Yunfei, followed by Liu Deming, stepped out of the tent, a thunderous roar erupted. All members of the Qingyun Army looked at Ye Yunfei with respectful gazes.
These members of the Qingyun Army were all the martial artists from the star seas Ye Yunfei had previously liberated. Over the recent period, Ye Yunfei had led them to liberate one star sea after another, slaying batch after batch of invaders. They had long since developed immense trust and respect for Ye Yunfei.
"Very good. Pass down the order. From now on, intensify training, especially for the Heavenly Demon Battle Formation and Earth Fiend Battle Formation. Strive to significantly increase the combat power of these two formations in a short period. Soon, our Qingyun Army will face more formidable enemies."
Ye Yunfei said clearly and loudly.
"Yes!"
All members of the Qingyun Army answered in unison.
"Everyone! We act immediately now to train the Heavenly Demon and Earth Fiend Battle Formations!"
Liu Deming waved his hand, leading the army to train.
"Relying solely on the Qingyun Army is not enough to deal with enemies from both worlds."
Shangguan Han walked over.
"Are we not here too?"
Ye Yunfei said.
"Originally, you established the Qingyun Army to resist the invaders and help the people of this realm. Yet now, the people of this realm have also become your enemies."
Shangguan Han said.
"The so-called Canghuang Alliance is just an alliance of some major powers. In my opinion, they do not represent the people of this realm."
Ye Yunfei sneered.
"That's true as well."
Shangguan Han nodded.
Right at this moment.
*Swoosh!*
Far off in the starry sky, over a dozen flying boats approached from a distance, lining up in a row and stopping in front of the Qingyun Army's camp.
Then, a large group of people rushed out of the first flying boat.
They were led by several dozen Dao Entry Realm experts, with the strongest among them being three late-stage Dao Entry Realm cultivators.
"Ye Yunfei! We are from the Jietian Sect! You killed so many of our people before, creating an ocean of blood and hatred! However, if you can hand over the Canghuang Origin, then the enmity between our Jietian Sect and you can be written off. Otherwise..."
A green-robed elder stepped out from the crowd, his gaze sharp and aggressive as he stared at Ye Yunfei and shouted loudly.
"Kill them all."
Before this green-robed elder could finish speaking, Ye Yunfei gave a light wave of his hand and said.
*Boom! Rumble…*
The Ice Demon, gripping his white wooden club with both hands, charged forward immediately, raising the club and striking.
*Puff! Puff!...*
The white wooden club in the Ice Demon's hands swelled with the wind, like a white mountain range sweeping horizontally through the starry sky, smashing the Jietian Sect members to pieces wherever it passed.
*Swoosh!*
The Blood Clan Clone also charged over and began sucking blood.
"Enemies!
Kill!"
At this moment, Liu Deming, Mao Wanli, and Gao Hui, leading the Qingyun Army, also rushed over. They formed several dozen Heavenly Demon and Earth Fiend Battle Formations and began fighting with the Jietian Sect forces.
The Ice Demon's combat power was too strong. During the battle, he directly revealed his true form, transforming into a massive, over-a-hundred-meter-tall giant completely covered in white fur. Looking down from a height, every swing of his white wooden club killed a large group of Jietian Sect members.
"A Dao Molding Realm expert! Ye Yunfei, you actually have a Dao Molding Realm expert by your side! No wonder you could liberate so many star seas from the hands of the invader army! Retreat, retreat quickly!"
Watching the Ice Demon wreaking carnage, the green-robed elder's face turned pale with fright. He turned around and fled.
Originally, he had thought the Qingyun Army was merely composed of martial artists from ordinary star seas, with limited strength. With the Jietian Sect's power, dealing with them should be easy. Therefore, after receiving the news that the Canghuang Origin had fallen into Ye Yunfei's hands, he immediately led a group from the Jietian Sect and rushed over at the fastest speed to seize the Canghuang Origin from Ye Yunfei.
Now, discovering that Ye Yunfei actually had such a formidable Dao Molding Realm expert by his side, all his will to fight instantly vanished.
The other Jietian Sect forces were struggling to hold on. Seeing this green-robed elder take the lead in fleeing, they had no heart left to continue fighting and all turned to flee.
"After them!"
Liu Deming, Mao Wanli, and Gao Hui, leading the army, pursued them.
*Swoosh!*
The Blood Clan Clone also gave chase, specifically targeting those Dao Entry Realm experts.
"Where do you think you're fleeing!"
The Ice Demon had his eyes on this green-robed elder. He strode forward in pursuit.
Moments later, almost all of the Jietian Sect forces had been killed.
Including the green-robed elder, who was severely injured by a blow from the Ice Demon's club and then handed over to the Blood Clan Clone for bloodsucking.
Only a very few managed to escape by sheer luck amid the chaos.
"The Blood Clan Clone's strength has increased significantly again. In the days to come, more and more people will come looking for trouble with me, so the Blood Clan Clone will also have more blood to feast on! It won't be long before the Blood Clan Clone can possess Dao Molding Realm combat power. Unexpected, my main body is only at the Acupuncture-Opening realm, but the Clone's strength is about to reach the Dao Molding Realm."
Sensing the aura of his Blood Clan Clone, Ye Yunfei was quite pleased.
In this battle, with the Ice Demon's cooperation, the dozens of Dao Entry Realm experts who had come with the Jietian Sect all had their blood completely drained by the Blood Clan Clone!
