The level of a Mountain Lord battle can be said to be earth-shattering. Even in the Barbaric World, such battles are rare, so warriors and merchants in Beihuai City all came out to watch. When the ancient deity’s shadow appeared, everyone cried out in surprise. But what was unbelievable to the wise ones was that the Divine Blood Warrior named Da Yi was fighting the Beihuang Lord evenly without even using divine arts, and he repeatedly broke the other’s divine arts. "Today’s old Beihuang Lord is likely to end. This Divine Blood Warrior named Da Yi is too powerful, his strength has long surpassed the Beihuang Lord. If he uses divine arts, the Beihuang Lord will fall with one strike," the wise one remarked, already seeing the outcome of this battle. "How could the Beihuang Lord lose? The power he shows now is not at all weaker than the Red Gold Mountain Master," a warrior was puzzled. "That’s because the Beihuang Lord is burning divine blood. This state won’t last long. Although a dying mutant beast is dangerous, the ultimate result will lead to death," the wise one said. And the situation was indeed as the wise one said. Each time the Beihuang Lord threw a punch, his sturdy body became slimmer, and after repeated battles, he was also injured, leaving behind fist marks. Yet Li Yi’s young and strong body was indestructible and had not been hurt until now. "Beihuang Lord, you can’t hold on any longer. You’ve fought to this extent just to stall me, giving your Divine Blood lineage time to escape Beihuai City," Li Yi said coldly, revealing the other’s intentions. The Beihuang Lord, panting heavily at this moment, had undergone tremendous changes. His sturdy body had become gaunt, yet he continued to burn divine blood, and the deity shadow behind him still persisted. In this battle, he had used divine arts four times, which had exhausted all his vitality. Even if Li Yi stopped attacking, he had no chance of survival. "Isn’t fighting for the opportunity for one’s descendants and future generations what the old should do?" the Beihuang Lord’s eyes remained sharp, showing no fear or regret, only a decisive detachment from life and death. "Very well, your realization is admirable. Let me send you off personally, giving you, an old Divine Blood Warrior, a honorable end," Li Yi showed no hesitation, not wanting to drag it out. This behavior showed utmost disrespect to both oneself and the opponent. He clenched his fist, nurturing Five-Colored Radiance at the fist’s edge, coiling Dragon and Tiger Power, silver lightning intertwined. Daoist Skill, strength, divine blood, three forces merged together, granting his fist unimaginable might. Perhaps sensing this. This old Beihuang Lord did not dodge, but instead roared and met the fist head-on, hoping his blood and bones would scatter outside Beihuai City, honoring the ancestors of the Beihuang Lineage. With just one strike, the old body of the Beihuang Lord at Jing He exploded, blood and bones scattered, dying instantly without any struggle or hesitation, as if it was the natural course of events. "The Beihuang Lord has perished." Such a scene caused many within Beihuai City to cry out and gasp, but many wise ones sighed helplessly, knowing the outcome of this battle from the start. "From today, Beihuai City will welcome the era of the Red Gold Mountain Master. I am about to witness the decline of one Divine Blood Family and the rise of another Divine Blood Family," a Merchant Master pondered silently. "The Divine Blood Direct Lineage of the Beihuang took many tribe members and a large amount of wealth when they left, it seems they were prepared." "This is a smart move, as it allows the lineage’s legacy to be preserved, preventing the complete extinction of Beihuang’s Divine Blood." Regarding the Beihuang Lineage’s escape, many merely watched calmly. However, most felt that this Divine Blood Family leaving Beihuai City might be a good thing, as under their rule, the city was somewhat chaotic, perhaps changing a City Lord would improve the situation. After Li Yi killed the Beihuang Lord, his expression was calm and he said nothing further, merely glanced at the Red Gold Battle Armor left on the ground, then stepped onto a Xiangyun, rising into the air again, flying towards Beihuai City. He did not pursue the fleeing Beihuang Lineage. Even if he were to eradicate them, Li Yi would not lack challengers in the future. But as the victor, Li Yi had to take over Beihuai City. He would not discard this trophy, as he had just brought over two hundred cultivation experts from another realm, more territory was always beneficial. When Li Yi returned to Beihuai City, many warriors inside the city were cheering. "Red Gold Mountain Master." "Red Gold Mountain Master." His name spread through Beihuai City, with many merchants and warriors eager to follow this young, infinitely potential new City Lord, as each rise and fall of a Mountain Lord would benefit some. Li Yi was not skilled in managing a large city, but he knew that without setting rules, chaos would ensue, so he directly summoned a group of warriors and merchants to promise to help him manage Beihuai City. He didn’t care about management quality, as in a few months, when the strength of the two hundred Tri-Floral Realm cultivation experts recovered, he would naturally send people to take over here. So during this period, these warriors and merchants only needed to maintain the most basic order. If anyone challenged him in the meantime, they could let their opponent come to Red Gold Mountain, where he would wait. After briefly handling some matters, Li Yi decisively left Beihuai City. This place was not worth his time. Many in Beihuai City watched Li Yi step onto Xiangyun and depart, feeling somewhat bewildered. After taking over a large city, both looting Red Gold and not accepting beauties, but abruptly leaving, where in the world is there such a City Lord? "This Da Yi is a pure Divine Blood Warrior, pursuing a stronger realm instead of staying in Beihuai City, avoiding being corroded by Red Gold and beauties. Even the wealth of a large city cannot sway his heart. How could such a person not become One God in the future?" Some wise ones explained this behavior. Many merchants and warriors were inspired by Li Yi after hearing this. However, at this moment, sitting on Xiangyun, Li Yi realized something was amiss after this battle. Logically, with his concentration of divine blood, he should have awakened a second divine art. Why was there no change upon arriving in this land? Moreover, when the Beihuang Lord used divine arts, there was inexplicable support from a deity’s will in this world, but he did not experience the same. "Could it be related to changes in the valley where the deity is buried?" Li Yi couldn’t help but guess. In the valley, a Silver Apple Tree had grown, the deity’s lingering will resided on the tree, and a human face had formed. Perhaps because the deceased deity had revived, a Divine Blood Direct Lineage Warrior could no longer be favored by this world. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹~𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮~𝚗𝚎𝚝 If so, wouldn’t it mean the Silver Apple Tree would inherit the remaining power of the deity in this world, gradually revive... finally fully resurrect? If this were true, then things would become quite significant.
