#6671 - Keep killing

Now the East Sea is already severely weakened, with heavy losses to the sea beasts.

The reason they haven't retreated yet is because the mermaid banshee is unwilling to give up.

The other blue whale and octopus have already suggested abandoning this landing.

The mermaid race does indeed have the status of leading all sea beasts in the East Sea and is also the most intelligent race.

Any mermaid sent out by the mermaid banshee to perform a task will receive the banshee's soul shield blessing.

This is also why Ye Liuyun encountered mermaids with soul protection shields.

However, the mermaid banshee wouldn't expend too much energy and wouldn't bless all the mermaids with shields.

Ye Liuyun captured one, while the one who escaped was responsible for commanding the sea beast invasion and also had the mermaid banshee's blessing.

It's just that Ye Liuyun didn't launch a soul attack on it and didn't know it yet.

The mermaid race itself is not large in number, only about ten thousand, and their reproduction speed is not fast.

Their tribe is also deep in the East Sea, protected by the mermaid banshee.

Ye Liuyun also learned from this captured mermaid that this invasion war directly reduced the number of sea beasts by 20%.

Only 20%, and the number of sea beasts is already close to a billion; it has to be said that the number of sea beasts is indeed terrifying.

But for the sea beasts, if they continue to die, it is very likely to cause the extinction of some sea beast races.

Moreover, they still have to prevent the human race's counterattack, so 50% is already the red line for sea beast survival.

It should be known that sea beasts also prey on each other.

The number of sea beasts seems large, but many are eaten as food every day.

Ye Liuyun also learned the maximum limit that sea beasts can withstand through this information.

As long as another 10-20% of the sea beasts are killed, these sea beasts will be frightened, and they will no longer have the ability to invade the land for a hundred years.

And now that Ye Liuyun has mermaids in his hands, it is not difficult to kill sea beasts.

As long as enough sea beasts are killed, he won't have to risk his life against those few strongest sea beasts.

So, he immediately ordered the fleet to return. He let the soldiers who had participated in the battle return to the cave world to rest and replaced them with another batch.

Then, he had the mermaid summon all the surrounding sea beasts to besiege them.

They relied on the warships, continuing to kill sea beasts as they moved back.

The surrounding sea beasts didn't know that the mermaid had been captured.

They had already developed the habit of obeying the mermaid's orders and also knew that the sea beasts were at war with the human race.

So, they didn't suspect the order to attack the human warships.

In an instant, sea beasts within tens of thousands of miles around immediately gathered towards Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun's warships also opened fire at full power, continuing to kill those sea beasts.

Ye Liuyun then put the captured mermaids into the sea, letting them follow the warships.

In the eyes of the sea beasts, these mermaids were chasing the warships to supervise the battle, and the sea beasts wouldn't suspect anything.

Deep in the East Sea, within the mermaid race's territory, the largest mermaid banshee let out a sharp scream.

It had already sensed that one of the soul shields it had blessed had been broken and could sense its approximate location.

It just didn't know which one had been broken, nor did it know whether the mermaid had been killed or captured.

The next moment, an octopus at the eighth level of the Chaotic Origin Realm appeared outside the mermaid tribe.

The mermaid banshee used sound transmission to give the octopus an order, telling it to go investigate and kill the human race who dared to attack the mermaid race.

The octopus was very impatient. It had long since stopped wanting to fight against the human race, but this mermaid banshee disagreed.

Now it had to trouble it to kill the human race. It not only felt it was dangerous but also a time-consuming and laborious task.

But the mermaid banshee stared at it firmly, with killing intent in her eyes.

The octopus was helpless and could only obey, after all, it could only submit if it couldn't win.

It just didn't rush on its way, foraging for food as it went, leisurely making its way.

If the human race left after it arrived, then it couldn't be blamed.

It didn't want to fight if it didn't have to; it didn't want to fight such an intelligent species.

Ye Liuyun's fleet was moving even slower than the octopus, after all, they had to fight and collect sea beast corpses at the same time.

Fortunately, there were not many sea beasts left around the coast, and they could hold on for the time being.

They immediately began to fully engage the sea beasts, trying to intercept them all on the beach as much as possible.

The martial cultivators also mobilized to help intercept the sea beasts.

They had finally driven the sea beasts back to the beach and certainly didn't want them to counterattack.

Both sides began a full-scale battle, and the situation suddenly became fierce again.

The martial cultivator experts Ye Liuyun left behind actively participated in the battle, killing sea beasts even faster.

Ye Liuyun's fleet faced even greater pressure, facing more sea beasts, which slowed down the fleet's progress a lot.

Their location was close to the deep sea, and the sea beasts coming from the deep sea were far more numerous than the sea beasts on the shore.

Especially the number of high-level sea beasts was high, and the Yin Soul puppets and high-level martial cultivators were constantly busy.

Ye Liuyun and his two clones also constantly took action.

In addition to using his soul to attack across the air to capture some high-level sea beasts, he would also use Void Fire from time to time to help the warship clear out some sea beasts.

Red Lotus Karmic Fire, Void Flames, and Dark Light each killed a large area with each strike, and no sea beast could block such attacks.

Especially since most sea beasts' soul power was originally weak, they couldn't resist this kind of attack specifically targeting the soul.

The magic vine also participated in the battle, but the vines it stretched out were only responsible for collecting sea beast corpses.

At this rate of killing sea beasts, the sea beast corpses he accumulated would soon allow him to break through to the next realm again.

The sea surface, dyed red with blood, was boundless, and the East Sea seemed to have become a red sea.

Under the mermaid's urging, the sea beasts gathered more and more, all thinking it was the mermaid banshee's order.

Ye Liuyun was satisfied with this situation; with countless sea beasts gathering, he could easily accomplish his goal.

He didn't need to directly fight against a strong person like the mermaid banshee.

Based on the mermaid's soul protection shield, the mermaid banshee's soul power might be much stronger than his.

His strongest point was his soul power; if his soul power was not a match, then he would have no way to deal with that mermaid banshee.

So, while leading the fleet to kill sea beasts, he was also refining soul sources, constantly improving his soul power.

He wouldn't use time power easily, in case those powerful sea beasts suddenly appeared.

The two clones were the same; although they were both weaker than Ye Liuyun, they wouldn't use it easily either, keeping it to deal with strong enemies.
