After the Skyfall

Chapter 931 The Secret Realm of Life and Death
The Divine King treated Li Yi well and secured some personal benefits for him. If Li Yi could defeat the Rakshasa Clan, he would not only survive but also receive a large sum of money, enough for him to live a very comfortable life in the Heavenly Realm.

However, Li Yi soon learned the reason.

“I have a duel with the Rakshasa King Yujue, so it’s too easy. Don’t disappoint me,” said the Divine Might Heavenly King. “You must win at least three matches, especially the third one, as they will likely send a royal Rakshasa.”

Li Yi's expression hardened.

So that's how it is. I had to save face for this Divine King, no wonder I was being given special attention.

"Haha, but you don't need to be nervous. Just do your best. If you really can't beat them, there's nothing you can do about it." Shenwei Tianwang then said with a smile.

He wasn't worried that Li Yi wouldn't fight desperately, since once he fought, he would die; he had no choice.

He said this only to warn Li Yi to use any hidden tricks as soon as possible, and to win at least three matches first. As for what happens after that, he should pray for good luck.

Li Yi said, "Don't worry, Heavenly King. Rakshasa at the Heavenly General level can't kill me. They will definitely be defeated. As long as the Heavenly King doesn't make a move, I can definitely win ten matches."

"Very good, you are very confident, I believe you." Divine Might Heavenly King nodded slightly, he could naturally tell whether Li Yi's words were true or false.

Indeed, he was full of confidence and had an invincible aura; no ordinary general could cultivate such spirit.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have placed such a heavy bet on Li Yi.

"It's almost time, Ketu. Send Taiyi to the Hell of Life and Death Secret Realm. I will have everyone on the World Ship watch this battle, so they can all see how the Rakshasa Clan's powerful warriors die tragically here." Divine Might Heavenly King gave another order.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Jidu and the other captains all began to take action.

Li Yi glanced at it.

He understood that the Heavenly King of Divine Might did this to absolve the existence of the guards, turning the conflict into one between himself and the Rakshasa clan, while the guards would act as the impartial party upholding justice.

Moreover, even if Li Yi wins in the end, he will be put on the hot seat, and the Rakshasa clan will not let him go afterward. Even if he survives this time, it will be difficult for him to survive the next time.

"The Heavenly Realm is a complex place, full of complicated human emotions," Li Yi sighed inwardly.

He felt that he was just as Hua Qing had said, born with bad luck. He had just crossed over into a new field, but ended up in the Sea of ​​Return to Nothingness, and then he was inexplicably conscripted by the Rakshasa people.

Why would I force myself to kill someone when I haven't done anything?

Wouldn't it be better for everyone to live peacefully?
Li Yi left with Jidu without saying a word. He was furious and needed to vent his anger on someone from the Rakshasa clan.

soon.

Li Yi was sent to the secret realm of life and death hell.

This secret realm is an independent space, enhanced by the power of a Heavenly Emperor. Even a Heavenly King could not break through it in a battle here. In addition, the spiritual energy in the secret realm is thin and filled with boundless malevolent energy.

Such a harsh environment means that cultivators cannot replenish their strength here; they can only leave to recuperate after defeating their opponents.

look around.

The surrounding desolate, dilapidated, and seemingly indestructible land was a dark red, stained with the blood of countless powerful warriors.

"Taiyi, the Rakshasa people are already inside. Be careful, but don't worry, as long as you're strong enough, the Rakshasa can't do anything to you." Jidu gave him this warning before leaving.

"Thank you."

After exchanging a few polite words, Li Yi strode inside.

At this moment, the array of this secret realm lit up, illuminating the heavens and the earth. Countless mirrors appeared around the sky, displaying the situation here to the outside world.

Li Yi saw that in one of the mirrors sat many powerful members of the Rakshasa clan. The leader was a Heavenly King of Hell, clad in blood-red armor. Their faces, which resembled demons, were highly recognizable and could be identified at a glance, even from a great distance.

The other mirrors, however, show the conditions of each level of the Boundary Ship.

The battles here are open to everyone on the Boundary Ship, who can also place bets on the outcome, with designated bookmakers on board.

"Human, you have offended our Rakshasa clan. You are doomed today. Remember, the one who will kill you today is Chi Feng, a heavenly general of the Rakshasa clan." A tall, red-skinned demon stood amidst the boundless malevolent aura. His body was covered with various wounds, clearly indicating that he was a veteran general who had experienced countless battles.

At this moment, Chi Feng's emerald green eyes stared at Li Yi, revealing a chilling killing intent.

However, he was not angry; on the contrary, he remained very calm.

Clearly, this Rakshasa general is very different from the other Rakshasa.

"Should they send a veteran with rich combat experience and great strength to test my level?" Li Yi immediately understood the Rakshasa clan's idea.

In this duel, the Rakshasa clan, having the qualification to fight ten rounds, was not in a hurry to immediately send their strongest person to kill Li Yi, so they sent an old general instead.

Winning would bring fame to their Rakshasa clan and let the people inside the World Ship know that even a random veteran of the Rakshasa clan possesses terrifying combat power.

Even if they lose, they can still find out Li Yi's true strength and weaknesses, making it easier to win back later.

"Don't introduce yourself. Your name doesn't matter, because the dead are never remembered," Li Yi said calmly, as his Reverse Scale Armor began to rapidly conceal itself. The rules of battle dictate that all armor must be removed.

The opposing Rakshasa general, Chi Feng, fought shirtless and clearly adhered strictly to the rules agreed upon by both sides.

"Humans have always been so eloquent," Chi Feng said coldly. "But you'd better be careful. Once the golden bell rings, I will twist your head off, then search your soul and see what evil deeds you have committed against our Rakshasa race."

Li Yi frowned.

Why do the Rakshasa people like to twist people's heads off? And what can a mere heavenly general do? Are you suggesting that the death of your Heavenly King of Power is also your fault?
What's wrong with just wanting to live?

"Your Rakshasa race is inherently evil. Killing is as easy as eating and drinking. You are true demons, and everyone has the right to kill you. If the Heavenly Realm didn't have your Rakshasa race, I don't know how many people would live a happy and fulfilling life because of you."

Li Yi retorted, "I am a human cultivator who is indifferent to worldly affairs. Just because I accidentally spat in the direction of your Rakshasa clan while walking on the road, you want to hunt me down to the ends of the earth? What kind of logic is that?"

Upon hearing this, the cultivators who were observing the secret realm of life and death in various parts of the World Ship immediately erupted in uproar.

They thought this human cultivator named Taiyi had done something heinous to the Rakshasa clan, but it turned out he had only spat in the direction of the Rakshasa clan.

The Rakshasa clan is far too domineering.

But on second thought, it doesn't seem to make any mistakes.

This is very much in line with the style of the Rakshasa people, and it is indeed something that these madmen would do.

"So that's how it is. This human general named Taiyi is really unlucky. He got into trouble with a bunch of lunatics because of a spit. Indeed, the heavenly realm is full of wonders."

"I, Du, have been cultivating in the Heavenly Realm for three thousand years and consider myself to have a lot of experience, but this is the first time I have ever seen something like this. I am truly ignorant."

"Haha, this unlucky heavenly general, of all people to mess with, he had to mess with the Rakshasa clan. They're all mad dogs, they just like to bite people indiscriminately."

Throughout the entire World Ship, whether in quiet rooms, secret realms, or the main hall, everyone who witnessed this scene was amused.

However, these words could fool some ordinary cultivators, but not the Rakshasa general named Chi Feng.

He could tell that Li Yi was lying.

"Bullshit, you liar!" Chi Feng snapped. "Do you dare say that the disappearance of King Chili and Princess Manluo has nothing to do with you?"

He wanted to confront them face-to-face and get the truth out of them.

Li Yi didn't even need to answer in person; a simple response was enough for many people to deduce the general truth of the matter.

"Do you Rakshasa clan think I killed your Heavenly King Chili and Princess Manluo? What cultivation level do I have? How could I possibly defeat your Heavenly King? I did see a group of them, but I was almost killed by your Rakshasa clan's Heavenly King. In the end, your Rakshasa clan suffered a great calamity on the Sea of ​​Return to Nothingness, and I only managed to escape death and survive."

Li Yi said, "You dare not avenge your Rakshasa King because the enemies in the Sea of ​​Return to Nothingness are terrifying and powerful, so you only dare to target me. You are a bunch of cowards who bully the weak and fear the strong."

He knew that at this point, the truth about the deaths of King Chili and Princess Manluo could no longer be hidden. However, as the only survivor, he could decide how to fabricate the story.

Moreover, everything he said was true, and even if the Heavenly King himself were to verify it, there would be no problem.

“What he said is true.” In the secret realm next door, the Divine Might Heavenly King nodded slightly as he listened to Li Yi’s words.

I thought there was some conflict or disagreement between the two sides, but it turns out that's what happened. This Taiyi is really unlucky.

Meanwhile, in another secret realm.

The Heavenly King of Prison Jue, who was in charge of investigating the matter, also looked very grim. He could tell that the cultivator named Taiyi was not lying, and that everything he had said was true.

This also aligns with my own guess and deduction: King Chili and Princess Manluo perished on the Sea of ​​Guixu.

Only that extremely dangerous sea could bury the powerful members of the Rakshasa clan.

This human cultivator was nothing more than a lucky survivor who slipped through the net; with his meager strength, he was utterly incapable of doing anything to the Heavenly King of Power.

Even if the matter is investigated and clarified, the human cultivator named Taiyi must still die.

Because this time, their Rakshasa tribe had already lost two Heavenly Generals. Although the people who cut off the Rakshasa tribe's heads were the escort team, it was ultimately caused by this Taiyi.

"I do not wish for this human to survive the first round of the competition too easily; this person must die," said the Heavenly King of Prison Awakening coldly.

“Your Majesty, Chi Feng will definitely be able to handle it. He is a seasoned general with extensive experience, and his strength is trustworthy,” said a young Rakshasa clan expert beside him.

Although this Rakshasa is a celestial general, it is on par with the Heavenly King of Hell, which shows that its identity is extraordinary.

"No matter what, I will definitely twist your head off today and return to report." At this moment, in the secret realm of the Hell of Life and Death, Rakshasa general Chi Feng still spoke coldly.

However, he had already completed one of his missions: to investigate the matter of King Chili and Princess Manluo.

Next, all I need to do is kill this person in front of me, and then everything will be over.
