After the Skyfall

Chapter 964 Kingdom of the Gods
After seeing Hua Qing off, Li Yi felt relieved. Moreover, he believed that with Hua Qing's abilities, he would definitely be able to return as the Heavenly Emperor in the future. Although he did not inherit too many resources from his previous life, a person with strong personal abilities can thrive wherever he goes.

As the Boundary Ship set sail again, Li Yi entered the Kingdom of the Gods.

What came into view was a magnificent gate that stretched to the heavens and the earth. This gate was not a physical object, but was forged by the Emperor's Light combined with various grand formations and based on countless star cores. From a distance, it looked as if a piece of the starry sky had been forcibly cut off, and it was constantly radiating countless lights, dazzling to the extreme.

Moreover, many ancient wills reside on the gate. These are the fallen god emperors of the Celestial Race. Although they are dead, their wills remain on this gate, protecting the Celestial Kingdom.

"This is the Gate of Heaven. If this gate is closed, even the Heavenly Emperor will find it difficult to break through. It is reinforced by the power of many God Emperors and is also set up with the Zhou Tian Grand Array. Anyone who is not a member of the Heavenly God Clan and tries to force their way in will be instantly killed."

Li Yi was inside the Boundary Ship, gazing at a corner of this place, while the Cold Mountain Heavenly King explained the various aspects of this place to him.

Within the Kingdom of the Gods, there are three regions, forming three layers from the outside in. The outermost layer is the largest and most expansive, inhabited by the people of various tribes of the God Clan. The second inner region is inhabited by the royal family and the Heavenly King's palace. The last region is inhabited by the direct descendants of the royal family, the Heavenly King, and the imperial palace of the God Emperor.

In the very center is a forbidden area, the abode of the Celestial Venerable and the ancestral land of the Celestial Gods.

However, it is said that the ancestral land of the Celestial Race was not in the Seventh Heaven, but in another world. It was only later that they moved here and developed over countless years, which is why they are so prosperous today.

Meanwhile, within the realm of the gods, there are also divine guardians who protect the safety of the divine kingdom, and their leader is the Mountain-Suppressing God Emperor.

Li Yi didn't speak; he just listened patiently.

"Is the tribe of the Cold Mountain Heavenly King also located here?" he then asked.

Hanshan Tianwang pointed in a direction and said, "I belong to the Wind and Snow Tribe, a very ordinary tribe in the Heavenly God Kingdom, living in a region in the north."

Her tribe was not particularly remarkable in the entire Kingdom of Gods; the strongest members of the tribe were only a few Heavenly Kings.

Li Yi understood that the person sent to be his bodyguard must be of ordinary status. After all, he was a newly joined member of the royal family. Although he had a prestigious background to outsiders, he was nothing more than a nobody within the Kingdom of Gods.

Although the bloodline of the royal family is precious, no one knows what potential it will have in the future. Therefore, only people from ordinary tribes are willing to fight for this bloodline and actively send their tribe's kings and generals to serve them.

But the royal family is different. Each royal family has its own direct descendants, so they are naturally more willing to spend resources to cultivate their own people. Why would they be willing to cultivate a direct descendant of a foreign royal family?

However, Li Yi felt that he still had a lot of room to maneuver within the Heavenly Gods' Kingdom.

It is precisely because of the exclusiveness of the royal family's direct line tribes that Li Yi, this newly arrived direct descendant, might be able to build a royal family force of his own.

Sometimes, not having a background is an advantage.

soon.

The Boundary Ship stopped at a location in the Kingdom of Gods.

"King Taiyi, this is where I'll leave you for now. I must return to continue fulfilling my duties and remain in charge of the Boundary Ship." After escorting Li Yi to the Kingdom of the Gods, King Shenwei did not linger and immediately prepared to depart.

"Thank you for taking care of me all the way, Divine King." Li Yi expressed his gratitude.

The Divine King smiled and said, "If Taiyi lacks manpower in the Kingdom of Gods, my Longbow Tribe is very willing to serve Taiyi."

Seeing that Taiyi had become the Heavenly King, he did not hesitate to send his tribe to serve him.

If they seize this opportunity, their tribe might become a royal family after Taiyi becomes the God Emperor.

"Alright, I've got this in mind. Thank you for your help, Divine Might Heavenly King." Li Yi didn't refuse, but nodded in agreement. Although he didn't know what would happen next, having another tribe's influence was ultimately a good thing.

The Divine King departed in high spirits.

This is why he enjoys dealing with Taiyi; no matter the situation, he remains as accommodating as ever, without acquiring the arrogant personality of other royals.

Perhaps this is one of the advantages of having some human blood.

After seeing off the Divine Might Heavenly King, Li Yi led the Cold Mountain Heavenly King, his four generals, and the Dragon Girl Yu Chang out of the World Ship.

The number of border ships docked here is outrageous, numbering in the hundreds of thousands on one side, and they vary in size. Some border ships seem to be for personal use, while others are used to transport goods; in short, each has its own purpose.

Boats came and went, creating a scene resembling a giant marketplace.

Moreover, all sorts of people kept flying down from the World Ship. Although most of them were from the Celestial God Clan, there were also powerful individuals from other races. Li Yi even saw quite a few alien cultivators being escorted over.

“Those are slaves captured by the Celestial Race,” said King Hanshan. “After conquering powerful enemies, the Celestial Race will leave behind some valuable people as slaves.”

Li Yi nodded slightly, not surprised at all, as it was quite similar to some traditions of the barbaric world.

“Where should we go now?” he asked.

Hanshan Heavenly King said, "Taiyi is a direct descendant of the royal family and should reside in the territory of the royal family. The elders of the royal family will arrange for a place to be designated as a palace for you, Taiyi."

"As the guardian king, I shall naturally lead my subordinates to move in together."

“No wonder the Divine Might Heavenly King told me that if we needed more people, we should ask the Longbow Tribe for help,” Li Yi said. “I’m new here and I do need a lot of help.” “Taiyi, my tribe has some warriors,” the Cold Mountain Heavenly King said. “Besides, some tribes that are on good terms with the Snowstorm Tribe are also willing to serve Taiyi.”

At this moment, for these tribes, serving the Heavenly King Taiyi is an excellent opportunity.

Previously, Li Yi was just a Heavenly General, and many people might have hesitated. But a Heavenly King who is a direct descendant of a royal family is different. Once he becomes a God Emperor and reproduces, he will become a new royal family.

Li Yi did not refuse but said, "Okay, but it's not the right time yet. Let's talk about it after things settle down. The matter of the Heavenly Emperor's Weapon is probably not over yet."

He had a premonition that after defeating the three Heavenly Kings of the Celestial God Royal Family, it wouldn't be enough to completely intimidate everyone, and that other Heavenly Kings would definitely not be able to hold back.

"Let's go to the royal area first. I need to quickly establish myself and stabilize the situation," Li Yi said.

He needs to understand the Kingdom of Gods, establish a foothold there, and then use the Kingdom of Gods for cultivation, even though he has now broken through to the Heavenly King Realm and has extraordinary combat power.

But Li Yi was not willing to stop there, because in the process of cultivation, he saw a path to becoming the Heavenly Emperor that belonged to him.

Immediately.

Following the directions given by the Cold Mountain Heavenly King, Li Yi led the group and immediately flew towards the central area of ​​the Heavenly God Kingdom.

It must be said that the Celestial Clan's decision to establish a kingdom here was truly visionary. Even upon first entering this place, Li Yi could sense that the essence of the entire Celestial Realm was continuously converging upon him.

Living here makes you naturally strong.

It is a blessed land.

Even a tree by the roadside, after being nourished by the spiritual energy here, grows to be thousands of feet tall, reaching the sky and the earth, like a pillar of heaven.

Even when the Celestials manifested their true forms, it was as if they had entered a vast kingdom.

Moreover, the Seventh Heaven is also very special. Any rock here is extremely hard and not easily destroyed. It would be a top-notch material for refining weapons outside the Heavenly Realm. In addition, the earth is exceptionally thick, with a continuous flow of earth energy that nourishes all living things.

Even if the power of a Heavenly King were unleashed here, it would be difficult to cause too much damage to this world.

But that's right.

If the world were not strong enough to withstand the power of the Heavenly King, it would have been destroyed long ago.

This also confirms the saying that only a powerful world can breed powerful people. If Li Yi had stayed on Earth, his potential would have been locked, and he would have had no chance of breaking through to the Heavenly King level.

"Once all the issues are resolved, it will be time to return to Earth. With my strength as the Heavenly King, I am more than capable of solving many problems."

Li Yi was now considering going home.

While it's good to cultivate oneself away from home, one must eventually return. If one is away for too long, one's family will inevitably worry about one's family.
Crossing an endless expanse of heaven and earth.

After spending several hours, Li Yi saw a road. This road was forged by the convergence of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the power of the God Emperor. It was covered with a dazzling and magnificent light.

"This is the royal road, the path to the royal family's residence. Only the royal family and their direct descendants can travel this route. Of course, the Heavenly King can also travel it, but ordinary members of the Heavenly God Clan are forbidden from doing so," said the Cold Mountain Heavenly King.

Li Yi couldn't say anything about this kind of class division, since such things exist in all races and are a means for the powerful and wealthy to demonstrate their status and establish authority.

He traveled freely along the royal road, and even the occasional divine guards stationed there did not stop him.

Because the Heavenly God Armlet on Li Yi's body is the best proof of his identity, as he, as a direct descendant of the royal family, can enter almost any place here.

Upon entering the royal territory, Li Yi clearly felt that it was more luxurious, less natural, with many more palaces, and the spiritual energy was also more abundant.

He could even smell the scent of the Jade Dew from the Nine Heavens in the air.

This indicates that many royal cultivators are consuming the Nine Heavens Jade Dew for cultivation, which is why such an aura is emanating from them.

"That's incredibly extravagant," Li Yi thought to himself.

The Celestial Royal Family truly possesses astonishing cultivation resources. Fortunately, the resources in the Celestial Realm can only produce one Celestial King at most, not one Celestial Emperor. Otherwise, the other cultivators in the Celestial Realm might as well give up and become slaves of these powerful clans to make a living.

Li Yi did not linger in the royal territory.

He is a direct descendant of royalty, and can continue forward to explore the last treasure land.

However, almost everyone who can live in the royal territory is a powerful figure. Li Yi could sense the aura of many Heavenly Kings with just a casual glance.

His level of achievement is utterly insignificant here.

This also demonstrates just how formidable the foundation of a powerful clan truly is.
