After the Skyfall

Chapter 844 The Northern Wilderness Changes Hands
The battle between mountain lords was earth-shattering; even in the wild world, such a battle was rare. Therefore, the warriors and merchants of the Northern Wilderness City all flocked out to watch the battle.

When the ancient phantom of the god appeared, everyone gasped in astonishment.

However, what the wise man found unbelievable was that the blood warrior named Da Yi fought against the Lord of the Northern Wilderness without even using any divine magic, and even repeatedly shattered the opponent's divine magic.

"The aging Lord of the Northern Wilderness is likely to meet his end today. This Divine Blood Warrior named Da Yi is too powerful. His strength has long surpassed that of the Lord of the Northern Wilderness. If he were to unleash his divine magic, the Lord of the Northern Wilderness would perish in a single blow." The wise man sighed, also foreseeing the outcome of the battle.

"How could the Lord of the Northern Wilderness lose? The power he's displaying is in no way inferior to that Lord of Crimson Gold Mountain." A warrior asked, puzzled.

"That's because the Lord of the Northern Wilderness is burning his divine blood. This state can't be maintained for long. Although the beasts are dangerous before they die, the final result will inevitably be death," the wise man said.

And the situation was just as the wise man had described.

With each punch the Northern Wilderness Lord threw, his robust body became thinner, and after repeated battles, he was also injured, leaving behind numerous fist marks. However, Li Yi's young and strong body remained undamaged.

"Lord of the Northern Wilderness, you can't hold on any longer. You've fought to this point just to stall me and buy time for your lineage of divine blood to escape from the Northern Wilderness City." Li Yi said coldly, exposing the other party's intentions.

The Lord of the Northern Wilderness was panting heavily, and his appearance had changed drastically. His once robust body was now emaciated, but he was still burning his divine blood, and the divine phantom behind him still existed.

He used divine magic four times in this battle, which had drained all his life force. Now, even if Li Yi didn't fight back, he wouldn't have a chance of surviving.

"Isn't it what the elderly should do to fight for the survival of their offspring?" The Northern Wilderness Lord's eyes remained sharp, showing no fear or regret, only a resolute determination that transcended life and death.

“Very well, I admire your resolve. I will personally send you on your way, as a dignified end for this aging Divine Blood Warrior.” Li Yi no longer hesitated; he didn’t want to waste any more time.

This is an extremely disrespectful act, both to oneself and to the other party.

next moment.

He clenched his fist, and five-colored light was generated on the tip of his fist. The power of dragon and tiger was wrapped around it, and silver lightning intertwined. The three forces of Dao, power, and divine blood converged together, giving his fist seal unimaginable power.

Perhaps it was something they felt in their hearts.

The elderly Lord of the Northern Wilderness did not dodge at this moment, but roared and met the punch head-on, hoping that his blood and bones would be scattered outside the city of the Northern Wilderness, so as not to fail the ancestors of the Northern Wilderness lineage.

boom!
With a single blow, the old body of the Northern Wilderness Lord Jinghe exploded, blood and bone splattering everywhere, and he died on the spot without any struggle or hesitation, as if it were all just a matter of course.

"The Lord of the Northern Wilderness has perished."

This scene caused many people in the Northern Wilderness City to gasp and gasp in surprise, but many wise men sighed helplessly, since the outcome of this battle was already known from the beginning.

“From today onwards, the era of the Crimson Gold Mountain Lord will begin in Northern Wilderness City. I am about to witness the decline of one divine blood family and the rise of another,” a merchant thought to himself.

"It seems that Daze, the direct descendant of the divine bloodline of the Northern Wilderness, left with many of his clansmen and took away a large amount of wealth. It seems that they were prepared in advance."

"This is a smart move. At least it preserves the bloodline and prevents the divine blood of the Northern Wilderness lineage from being completely extinguished."

Many people simply watched calmly as the Northern Wilderness lineage fled.
However, most people felt that it might be a good thing for this divine bloodline family to leave Northern Wilderness City, because the city was in a bad state under their rule, and perhaps the situation would improve with a different city lord.

After killing the Lord of the Northern Wilderness, Li Yi remained calm and said nothing. He merely glanced at the crimson-gold armor left on the ground before stepping on auspicious clouds and soaring into the air once more, flying towards the direction of the Northern Wilderness City.

He did not pursue the Northern Wilderness clan that had fled from here.

Even if he were to exterminate them all, Li Yi would not lack challengers in the future.

But as the victor, Li Yi had to accept the Northern Wilderness City. He wouldn't give up this spoils of war; after all, he had brought over two hundred cultivation experts across realms, and having more territory was always a good thing. When Li Yi returned to the Northern Wilderness City, many of the city's warriors cheered.

"Lord of Chijin Mountain."

"Lord of Chijin Mountain."

“The Big Easy.”

“The Big Easy.”

His name spread throughout the northern wilderness city, and many merchants and warriors were eager to follow this young and promising new city lord, because every rise and fall of a mountain lord always benefited some people.

Li Yi was not good at managing a large city, but he also knew that if no rules were set, chaos would break out. So he directly summoned a group of warriors and merchants and made them promise to help him manage the Northern Wilderness City.

He didn't care whether the management was good or bad, because after a few months, once the strength of those two hundred-plus cultivators at the Three Flowers Realm had recovered, he would naturally send someone to take over the place.

Therefore, during this period, these warriors and merchants only needed to maintain the most basic order.

If anyone wants to challenge him, he can send his enemy to Crimson Gold Mountain, where he will be waiting.

So after briefly dealing with some matters, Li Yi decisively left Beihuang City.

This place isn't worth him spending too much time here.

Many people in the Northern Wilderness City watched Li Yi depart on auspicious clouds, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

After conquering a great city, he not only plundered the gold but also refused to accept the beautiful concubines. Instead, he ran away immediately. What kind of city lord is this?

"This Da Yi is a pure divine blood warrior. He seeks a higher realm, not to remain in the Northern Wilderness City, where he is corrupted by crimson gold and beautiful women. Even the wealth of a great city cannot shake his heart. How can such a person not become a god in the future?"

Wise people have offered explanations for this behavior.

Upon hearing this, many merchants and warriors couldn't help but feel admiration for Li Yi.

However, at this moment, Li Yi, who was sitting on the auspicious cloud, noticed something was amiss after the battle.

Logically speaking, with the concentration of his divine blood, he should have been able to awaken a second divine art.

Why did I not change after arriving in this world?

Moreover, when the Lord of the Northern Wilderness used his divine magic, there was a divine will supporting him in the unseen world, but he did not experience this.

"Could it be related to the changes in the valley where the gods are buried?" Li Yi couldn't help but wonder.

In that valley, a silver apple tree has now grown, and the remnants of the god's will reside in the tree, which has also sprouted a human face.

Perhaps because the dead gods have been resurrected, as a direct descendant of divine blood, this warrior can no longer be favored by this world.

If that's the case, wouldn't it mean that the silver apple tree will inherit the power of the remaining gods in this world, gradually recover, and eventually be completely resurrected?
If that's the case, then things are getting serious.
