Three days have passed since the confrontation between the Divine Wood Lord, the Barbaric World Lord, and the Red Gold Mountain Master Da Yi. During these three days, Red Gold Mountain remains shrouded in thunderclouds, yet no new Lord of Hundred Mountains has come to obstruct Li Yi’s tribulation to ascend into godhood. After all, the two formidable ones before have already sacrificed their lives to verify Da Yi’s strength. Unless a One God intervenes, it’s difficult for anyone to hinder his path to divinity, but no One God exists near Red Gold Mountain, with the closest being five thousand miles away in Youfeng Country. And in this ancient land of the Wilderness, even a One God adheres to ancient rules, not obstructing a Lord of Hundred Mountains becoming a One God, for every Divine Blood Family has its time of decline, and every Lord of Hundred Mountains desires to restore ancestral glory. If a One God used unscrupulous methods to suppress, in the end, disaster would fall upon every Divine Blood Warrior, after all, the nation venerating a One God also faces decay and downfall. And during these three days. Li Yi sits deep within the Red Gold Mountain Range, his body autonomously consuming spiritual energy from all directions and a vast amount of life essence qi. Up until now, his body has grown to a height of a hundred zhang, becoming a genuine giant. But after reaching such height, his body stopped growing, seemingly having hit a limit. "A hundred zhang body is a symbol of a One God, could it be that our Red Gold Mountain Master has already become a One God even before crossing the tribulation?" In Red Mountain City, a wise man climbed high to gaze afar, feeling both excited and shocked upon seeing the giant about to be engulfed by the sea of thunder. "No, the Red Gold Mountain Master has only grown to the stature of a One God, his power has not yet reached there. The divine power stored in heaven and earth continues to gather, only when he receives the ancestral divine power can he truly be considered a One God." Other tribes’ High Priests also observed in Red Mountain City for days, eventually reaching such a conclusion. Why such a situation occurs. Some wise men speculate it’s because Da Yi, the Red Gold Mountain Master’s divine blood, has reached the equivalence of a One God, causing his body to grow prematurely. In previous situations, the divine blood within a typical Lord of Hundred Mountains would grow slowly until it provokes the will of the Divine, drawing the tribulation of ascension, after which it would break the limit, transforming into a giant of a hundred zhang. In other words, Red Gold Mountain Da Yi swiftly surpassed that limit in a short time, directly reaching the stage of a One God. And the primary reason for this is indeed Li Yi consuming that Silver Apple. The Silver Apple, which absorbed the remaining bloodline power from a Divine’s relic, directly transformed Li Yi’s body to the stage of a One God, thus provoking the Divine will’s descent, causing such tribulation. "With my current state, can I endure the divine power within the sea of thunder?" At this moment, Li Yi looked up at the thunder sea that had brewed to its peak. And within the thunder sea, a giant had surfaced, formed by thunder, divine power, and condensed Divine will. He has a premonition, that this so-called tribulation of ascendancy involves defeating the ancestral incarnation personally, retrieving as much ancestral power stored in heaven and earth from the opponent. As for how much he can reclaim, it entirely depends on his own skills. Of course, there’s also the chance of being directly slain by the ancestral Divine’s incarnation due to insufficient strength. "At most, there’s half a day before the trial begins." Li Yi thought to himself, now fully prepared, having adjusted his state to the peak. The only regret is that he cannot obtain a powerful weapon or armor to enhance his strength now. Neither Demon King Weapon, Red Gold Treasure Armor, nor Treasure Moon Bow can withstand the upcoming battle, as his newly transformed body already surpasses this level of weaponry. Thus, in the subsequent battle, he must rely on Tao Skill and Fist Skill. Only by maximizing his power can he defeat the ancestral Divine incarnation and overcome this tribulation. Realizing this, Li Yi’s Primordial Spirit Dharma began practicing fist skill and Daoist Skill, picking up the long-unused techniques once again. With the divine body of a hundred zhang high, swinging fist skill and mobilizing entire divine power, it absolutely has unexpected effects, confirming that having additional skills can prove beneficial, never knowing when they might come in handy. As time gradually passes. By the ninth day, the thunder sea above Red Gold Mountain stops absorbing nature’s spiritual energy, and the gathered divine power reaches its limit, unable to increase further. At this moment, the Divine incarnation within the thunder sea begins to awaken. Li Yi instantly retracted his Primordial Spirit Dharma, suddenly opening his eyes, the hundred zhang body standing up. He sensed a formidable battle intent. Though just a Divine manifested from heaven and earth energy, yet after a will descended from the void, it behaves as if reborn with spiritual wisdom, only that its spiritual wisdom is incomplete, inclined more towards instinctual behavior. With the resonance of their bloodlines. The Divine incarnation stood in the thunder sea, endowed with boundless power, roaring a proclamation of its return to this ancient world. Li Yi understood the time had come, rather than passively waiting for the Divine incarnation to attack, it would be better to take the initiative. His enormous body emitted a silver glow, taking a step forward, a giant Xiangyun appeared, carrying his hundred zhang body, rushing towards that thunder sea in the sky. The sea of thunder was now churning and roaring with the Divine Power, countless terrifying lightning bolts wove through the heavens and earth, instantly severing everything, and anyone attempting to enter the sky would be mercilessly struck down by these lightning bolts. Only Li Yi was immune to this lightning, for even if they struck him, they would only be absorbed and become part of his power. Li Yi forcibly tore open a gap in the sea of thunder, leaping to the peak of the heavens, appearing before the Divine Avatar. Without any hesitation or delay, Li Yi instantly threw a punch, his fist shrouded in five colors, entwined with dragons and tigers, mobilizing a sea of thunder, his entire arm glowing with a silver radiance. The blow struck the Divine Avatar heavily. Accompanied by the trembling sky and turbulent sea of thunder, Li Yi’s terrifying punch brutally pierced through the Divine Avatar’s body, but what splashed from the wound was not blood, but streams of crystalline Divine Power, which, drawn by an ancient bloodline, transferred into his massive form. This made Li Yi feel significantly stronger in an instant. "So this is the legacy of the Barbaric World." At this moment, Li Yi understood the significance of this battle. The wounded Divine Avatar was enraged, immediately striking a primordial stance, unleashing an equally terrifying aura, and then its fist swung through, reversing the thunder sea and breaking the void. The lightning dimmed at this moment. Evidently, this was the Divine Arts that Li Yi previously enacted, the Severing of Heaven and Earth. Seeing this, Li Yi’s pupils suddenly contracted, but he had nowhere to dodge; he could only raise his arm, gathering all his strength, in an attempt to withstand this blow. The firmament shattered, the thunder sea broke apart, countless bolts of lightning swept in all directions; thankfully, the battle was in the sky, as the aftermath did not reach the ground. Along with the terrifying surge of Divine Power. Li Yi’s arm was forcibly broken, silvery blood scattering across the heavens, then transforming into lightning to merge into the thunder sea, while a portion of Divine Power from his Divine Blood was stolen back by the Divine Avatar. "This Divine Avatar is absurdly strong." He twitched his mouth. If he took a few more Divine Arts hits, he feared he would be outright killed. No wonder the Divine Wood Lord and the Barbaric Lords intended to interfere. If in poor condition, once fighting the Divine Avatar, it would be impossible to survive this tribulation.

Li Yi’s gaze quickly hardened again, regardless of his current realm or strength, never forgetting he was a Martial Artist from the Four Seas and Eight Continents. A Martial Artist confronts the enemy, overpowers with force, fights unto death without retreat. Li Yi shouted, his retreating body charged forth again, single-armed punch, his hundred-zhang tall body twisting into a force, mobilizing all internal strength, his fist radiant to the utmost, attempting a decisive blow to the opponent. The Divine Avatar, though lacking full spiritual wisdom, had terrifying battle instincts, seemingly sensing danger, immediately sidestepping to evade. Yet even so, the fist still tore open a menacing wound on its chest. Crystalline Divine Power splashed, then merged once more into Li Yi’s body. But soon, numerous silver bolts of lightning surged in the thunder sea, falling upon the Divine Avatar’s wound, rapidly repairing the fearsome wound. The restored Divine Avatar attacked Li Yi again. Li Yi, unfazed, after injuring the opponent with a punch, swept a leg across, as Divine Power burst, splitting the thunder sea with the strike, power resounding through the heavens and earth, and the space itself shattered. Early on, he had trained in the Four Seas and Eight Continents, mastering fists, legs, palms, swords, spears, and more, his entire body a killing instrument—though at higher levels of training, martial skills were seldom needed. Yet, the Divine Avatar did not evade, instead opting to exchange blows with Li Yi, injuring in return. After exchanging strikes, the enormous bodies staggered backward into the thunder sea. Nonetheless, Li Yi adapted first, ignoring his injuries, and charged again proactively. Once more, the two clashed fiercely, both desperately seizing each other’s Divine Power; this mode of combat meant you could only fight, with no retreat, for if the opponent’s Divine Power were plundered to a critical point, you would never recover.
