After the Skyfall

Chapter 948 The Heavenly King's Demise
"As expected of the Heavenly King of the Celestial Clan, his combat power is truly terrifying. King Yu was already at a complete disadvantage after just one exchange of blows, and his fighting spirit was completely extinguished."

"Ignore him. The Celestial Clan's arrival clearly indicates they want to establish their authority by taking the head of a Celestial King. It's just bad luck that King Yu ran into them."

"Losing one Feather King and gaining one Celestial Clan member doesn't mean we've lost anything; we'll still get a share of the pie eventually."

Near the Imperial Palace, the Heavenly Kings were drawn by the commotion. They watched coldly, secretly hoping that Heavenly King Yu would be killed so that the Celestial Clan could rightfully take his place.

A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist.

As long as the Celestials don't kill me, that's fine.

The Feathered King was also aware of his predicament. He roared, flapped his wings, and used his magical powers to try to escape.

"You can't leave." The Heavenly King of Cold Mountain's voice was icy. He held the Heavenly King's weapon in one hand, channeled his divine power, and lit up the stars. He once again set up a killing formation and arrived in an instant.

It was another peak strike, completely sealing off the heavens and earth, forcing the opponent to take the blow head-on, or else they would be defeated in an instant.

"Do you really think I'm afraid of you? At worst, I'll take you with me on this journey." King Yu knew he couldn't escape; his only chance of survival was to fight back desperately.

Moreover, as fellow Heavenly Kings, he didn't believe there was absolutely no room for resistance.

The two Heavenly Kings clashed again, unleashing terrifying power between heaven and earth. However, the Cold Mountain Heavenly King remained absolutely dominant, crushing his opponent and causing the Feather Heavenly King's body to tear apart, with blood flowing freely.

In just two rounds, the Heavenly King was bleeding.

The gap is truly huge.

However, the Heavenly King was fighting desperately, and the group of Heavenly Generals who had received the Heavenly King's orders hesitated for a moment before having no choice but to bite the bullet and start the war. As long as the Heavenly King Yu was not dead, they dared not disobey the order.

"Go! Don't be afraid. They outnumber us. Surround and kill them."

"They are outnumbered, so the advantage is on our side."

"We have nowhere to retreat; our only chance of survival is to fight them off."

There were indeed quite a few celestial generals in this group. Li Yi glanced at them and saw no less than fifty. However, although there were many of these celestial generals, their quality varied greatly, with very few elites. There were only less than ten winged celestial generals.

It seems this Feather King is quite poor.

This is normal, after all, not everyone is as rich as the Celestial Clan. Many people have already exhausted all their resources after becoming Celestial Kings, so they don't have extra money to train subordinates or recruit elites.

"Move out and drive them back," Li Yi calmly gave the order.

Upon receiving the order, the eight divine generals and the dragon maiden Yu Chang instantly charged out. They were fearless, for each of them was fully armed, wearing celestial general armor, wielding celestial general weapons, and blessed with bloodline and numerous wondrous techniques.

With such combat power, they are capable of taking on many opponents single-handedly.

Moreover, the opposing force was not elite; some of the Heavenly Generals didn't even have a single Heavenly General weapon, or even the power of their bloodline. Given these disparities, it was clear that the enemy was not an elite force.

The difference in combat power between ordinary heavenly generals and top-tier heavenly generals was immediately apparent.

Even if they were surrounded and attacked, it would be difficult for them to win. On the contrary, once they showed a weakness, the divine general would immediately deliver a powerful blow and kill them on the spot.

Li Yi stood in the middle of the battlefield. He did not make a move, but observed the situation to see if his generals could withstand the pressure. If not, he would choose to take action.

As a direct descendant of the Heavenly God Royal Family who has already rebuilt his wondrous methods, the Heavenly General Realm no longer poses a threat to him.

Clearly, the enemy was unaware of Li Yi's strength. They only knew that Li Yi's identity was extraordinary among these divine generals, and that if they could defeat him, they might be able to change the course of the battlefield.

Suddenly.

Ten winged celestial generals set their sights on Li Yi and arrived together.

Ten figures crisscrossed the heavens and earth, with figures flashing in all directions, as if Li Yi had been trapped in a huge encirclement and could no longer escape.

"Ten celestial generals are trying to capture me? It seems my status as a member of the Celestial Royal Family has indeed brought me good treatment." Li Yi glanced at them, then suddenly transformed into a dragon-shaped figure and traversed the heavens and earth.

"This person is definitely a member of the Celestial Royal Family. Capturing him and using him as leverage will surely resolve the current crisis. Oh no!" Before a Feather Clan general could finish speaking, his hair suddenly stood on end as a terrifying killing intent locked onto him.

The next moment, his eyes narrowed sharply as he saw a real dragon extend a sharp claw, on which five-colored divine light shimmered.

He tried to defend himself.

But those sharp claws easily tore his body apart, and even his primordial spirit was not spared.

The mangled corpses, along with blood, were scattered across the sky, without even a chance to call for help.

With the Five-Colored Divine Light combined with the True Dragon Soaring Technique and the foundation of the Heavenly God Royal Family, Li Yi was like a true dragon charging into a school of fish, leaving his enemies in despair.

"kill."

Several winged generals roared, flapping their wings with incredible speed, like streaks of white, cold light weaving a large net across the heavens and earth, attempting to trap Li Yi, the true dragon.

But as Li Yi's dragon-shaped figure flashed with five divine lights, several heavenly generals were already destroyed and fell from the sky amidst the crisscrossing of the lights.

Life and death are separated by a fine line; there are no fancy tricks involved.

When Li Yi stopped, his fists were stained with blood, but he was unharmed. Of the ten Feather Clan generals who had come with him, only five remained.

In just one round, five generals were killed.

You must understand, they are not rogue cultivators, nor are they a rabble; they are the elite troops under the command of King Yu.

Seeing the corpses scattered across the sky, the five heavenly generals were both shocked and furious.

This was the first time they had experienced the combat power of the Heavenly King's generals.

It's really terrifying.

Upon contact, the Heavenly General-level combat power immediately crumbled, and any spells were shattered in an instant. If I hadn't witnessed it with my own eyes, I would never have known that such an exaggerated thing existed in the world.

"Is this the gap between us and the top royal geniuses? With such combat power, they haven't even reached the Heavenly King Realm?"

"There's no other way. We can only rely on the Heavenly Generals to hold them off. The reason he deliberately avoided us when he attacked earlier is because we all have armored soldiers."

“That makes sense.” The five surviving Feather Clan Heavenly Generals all possessed Heavenly General weapons, and they believed that relying on these weapons could compensate for some of the gap in combat strength.

just.

They forget.

As a member of the Celestial God Royal Family, how could Li Yi not have weapons? Moreover, he wielded not just Heavenly General Soldiers, but Heavenly King Soldiers.

But then he slowly took out a blood-red longsword from the Five Elements Bracelet.

As soon as the blood-red longsword appeared, the sky was illuminated in crimson, and a bloody storm swept around it.

In this remote imperial city, Li Yi was finally able to take out and use the Heavenly King's Blood Divine Sword, the weapon of the Rakshasa Clan's Heavenly King of Strength.

Under the infusion of magical power.

The Blood God Sword unleashed boundless divine power, but at a great cost. Li Yi felt the mana in his 150 acupoints draining away rapidly. If he weren't a member of the Celestial Race, his body would have been drained dry with just one strike.

It was indeed a struggle to command the Heavenly King's troops.

"Heavenly King's Soldier?"

The remaining five winged celestial generals were greatly alarmed upon seeing this.

What a joke.

Has the Celestial Royal Family become this wealthy? One of their Celestial Generals possesses a Celestial King Weapon, while their Feathered Celestial King only has one Celestial King Weapon, the Purple Gold Hammer.

escape!
Shocked, they then made the right choice: to scatter and flee.

If we don't leave, we'll all die.

The power of the Heavenly King's soldiers is enough to annihilate them all just by activating them; there is no way to resist them, even if you are wearing Heavenly General Armor.

"It's too late to leave now." Li Yi used them as practice, using the Heavenly King Soldier Blood God Sword for the first time.

With a single swing of the sword, a crimson sword light burst forth, instantly engulfing the heavens and earth.

Under the sword light, their Heavenly General Armor shattered instantly, and their bodies were then completely pulverized by the blood-red sword light, leaving not a single bone behind.

The five winged celestial generals were thus annihilated in a single blow.

Moreover, even a section of the imperial city beneath their feet was forcibly erased.

Furthermore, this force nearly injured a Celestial general who was fighting in the distance.

"Is its power really that terrifying?" Li Yi was shocked and hurriedly withdrew his magic power, bringing the Blood God Sword back to calm.

He then checked himself and found that one-fifth of his magical power had been completely used up.

In other words, Li Yi can unleash the full power of the Heavenly King's Soldier a maximum of five times.

It may seem like a small amount, but it's actually quite impressive.

It should be understood that even if a celestial general's magic power is completely drained, it is impossible for him to unleash the full power of the Heavenly King's weapon. However, Li Yi was able to unleash the peak power of the Heavenly King's weapon five times with a single strike, which is terrifying enough.

"Can't the Heavenly King's Weapon absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on its own and attack proactively?" Li Yi thought to himself, feeling that the weapons of the Heavenly Realm were not intelligent enough.

Even the Taoist master craftsman can forge a crimson gold artifact that can kill enemies on its own.

In reality, it's not that they can't forge the weapons that Li Yi mentioned that can kill enemies autonomously, but in the Heavenly Realm, spiritual energy is plentiful, and the most important thing in forging divine weapons is power, not those fancy functions.

The more functions a unit has, the weaker its combat power becomes.

In a life-or-death battle, if the Heavenly King's forces are weaker, it is very likely that one of the Heavenly Kings will be defeated.

As for mana.

The Heavenly King can simply take a breath towards the heavens and earth and he has enough, so how could he lack it?

Li Yi found the Heavenly King Weapon difficult to use because this level of weapon was simply not suited to his command.

soon.

Li Yi also discovered the benefits of the Heavenly Realm. Although it consumed a lot of magical power, it also recovered quickly. As long as he absorbed some spiritual energy from heaven and earth, his consumed magical power would immediately be replenished.

If he didn't unleash the full power of the Heavenly King Weapon and controlled the rate of consumption and recovery well, he felt he should be able to wield one.

After Li Yi killed all the enemies...

Sudden.

At that very moment, a strange phenomenon occurred in the heavens and earth. Countless feathers of light descended from the sky, as if the heavens and earth were weeping. Everywhere there was a raging storm with lightning and thunder.

It seems something terrible has happened.

"The Feathered King has perished."

The Heavenly King, watching from afar, sighed inwardly.
This strange phenomenon is the world announcing the departure of a celestial king.

After a fierce battle, Yu Tianwang was no match for Hanshan Tianwang. His head was chopped off with an axe, his primordial spirit was destroyed, and he died without even the chance to be reborn and rebuild his life.

"Is this the strength of a Heavenly King of the Celestial Clan? It's truly astonishing. To kill a Heavenly King in such a short time, I was definitely right not to offend them before."

At this moment, the Azure Orchid Heavenly King was also gazing into the distance from the Imperial City. She was terrified, realizing that she had underestimated the top race of the Heavenly Realm.

As two Heavenly Kings, the difference shouldn't be this great, since Heavenly King Yu also has Heavenly King Soldiers.

But the opponent was so powerful that it was unreasonable, and even those of the same realm could not withstand it for more than a moment.

To restrain the other party, at least two people need to work together; no, to be on the safe side, three people would be better.
