Chapter 924
The Divine Might Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang's attitude toward Li Yi in the Life and Death Hell secret realm was not bad; he had personally secured some benefits for him. If Li Yi could defeat the Luo Sha tribe, he would not only save his life but also receive a large sum of money, enough for him to live very comfortably in the Heavenly Realm.
However, Li Yi soon knew the reason.
"I have a gambling match with the Luo Sha tribe's Prison-Perception Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang, so Tai Yi, don't let me down," Divine Might said. "In any case, you must win at least three matches for me, especially the third match; the other party should send a Royal Luo Sha."
Li Yi's expression tightened.
So that was it; he had to win face for this Divine Might Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang, no wonder he was being specially taken care of.
"Haha, but you don't need to be nervous, just do your best. If you really can't beat them, then there's nothing to be done," the Divine Might Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang then said with a smile.
He was not worried that Li Yi wouldn't fight with his life; after all, if he didn't fight, he would die, so there was no choice.
He said this just to warn Li Yi to use any hidden means as early as possible; at least win three matches first. As for the situation afterward, he would have to rely on his own luck.
Li Yi said: "Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang, rest assured, Heavenly General-level Rakshasas cannot kill me. They will definitely be defeated. As long as the other party's Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang doesn't make a move, I can definitely win ten matches."
"Very good, you are very confident; I believe your words," the Divine Might Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang nodded slightly. He could naturally tell whether Li Yi's words were true or false.
It was indeed full of confidence, possessing an invincible spirit; ordinary Heavenly Generals could not cultivate this kind of spirit.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have placed a heavy bet on Li Yi.
"The time is almost up. Jidu, send Tai Yi to the Life and Death Hell secret realm. For this great battle, I will let everyone on the World Boat watch, let them all see how the Luo Sha tribe's powerhouses miserably die here," the Divine Might Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang issued another order.
"Yes, Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang." Jidu and several other captains began to take action one after another.
Li Yi took a look.
He understood that the Divine Might Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang's purpose in doing this was to distance the Boat Guard from the matter, turning it into a conflict between himself and the Luo Sha tribe, while the Boat Guard would instead act as an impartial party to uphold justice.
And even if Li Yi won in the end, it would just be putting him on the fire to roast; the Luo Sha tribe would not let him go afterward. Even if he survived this time, it would be very difficult to survive the next.
"Heavenly Realm, human hearts are complex," Li Yi sighed in his heart.
He felt that he was truly as Hua Qing said, born with bad luck. He was just crossing dimensions properly, ran to some Sea of Returning Ruins, and then was confusedly grabbed as a conscript by the Luo Sha tribe people.
He clearly hadn't done anything, so why force him to kill?
Wouldn't it be better for everyone to live in peace? Li Yi followed Jidu away without a word. He was very angry now and needed to find someone from the Luo Sha tribe to vent his anger.
Soon.
Li Yi was sent into the Life and Death Hell secret realm.
This secret realm was an independent space, with the added power of a Heavenly Emperor-level, so even if Heavenly Kings fought here, they would absolutely not be able to break this secret realm. Besides, the spiritual energy in the secret realm was thin and filled with a boundless baleful aura.
Such a harsh environment meant that cultivators could not replenish their physical strength here; only after defeating their opponent could they leave here to recuperate.
Looking around.
The surroundings were desolate, dilapidated, and the indestructible earth appeared dark red, unknown how many powerhouses' fresh blood had soaked it.
"Tai Yi, the Luo Sha tribe people are already inside. Be careful, but rest assured, as long as your strength is strong enough, the Luo Sha tribe won't be able to do anything to you either," Jidu warned him after sending him there and then left.
"Many thanks."
After Li Yi exchanged pleasantries, he strode inside.
And at this moment, the formation of this secret realm lit up, and the world was illuminated. Countless mirrors appeared around the firmament, and these mirrors presented the situation here to the outside world.
Li Yi saw that in one of the mirrors, many Luo Sha tribe powerhouses were sitting. The leader was a Prison-Perception Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang wearing blood-colored battle armor. Their faces, which looked like evil ghosts, were highly recognizable; even from a distance, one could distinguish them at a glance.
And the other mirrors showed the situation on various levels of the World Boat.
The battle here could be enjoyed and watched by everyone on the World Boat, and at the same time, they could place bets on the outcome of this battle. There were specialized people acting as bookies within the World Boat.
"Human, offending our Luo Sha tribe, today you are dead for sure. Remember, the person who kills you today is the Luo Sha tribe's Heavenly General, Chi Feng," an evil ghost with a tall stature and red skin stood in the boundless baleful aura. His whole body was covered in various scars; he was clearly an old general who had experienced a hundred battles.
At this moment, Chi Feng's pair of emerald green eyes stared at Li Yi, revealing cold killing intent.
However, he was not angry; on the contrary, he was very calm.
Clearly, this Luo Sha Heavenly General was very different from other Rakshasas.
"Sending an old general with rich combat experience and strong strength to test my level?" Li Yi immediately understood the Luo Sha tribe's thoughts.
In this kind of duel, because the Luo Sha tribe had the qualification to fight ten matches, they were not in a hurry to send their strongest person to kill Li Yi immediately, so they let an old general take the lead.
If he won, it could bring fame to their Luo Sha tribe, letting these people on the World Boat know that any random old general of the Luo Sha tribe possessed terrifying combat power.
If he lost, it could also figure out Li Yi's background, making it convenient to win back later.
"Don't bother announcing your name; what your name is doesn't matter, because the dead won't be remembered by anyone," Li Yi said with a calm expression, while the Reverse Scale Battle Armor on his body also began to hide rapidly.
The rules of the great battle required stripping off all armor and weapons.
The Luo Sha tribe Heavenly General named Chi Feng on the other side went into battle shirtless, clearly also strictly observing the rules set by both sides.
"Humans have always been so glib," Chi Feng said coldly. "But you had better be careful. Once the golden bell rings, I will twist your head off, then search your soul and seize your spirit to see what evil things you have done to our Luo Sha tribe."
Li Yi frowned.
Why do Luo Sha tribe people like to twist people's heads off? And what could he, a Heavenly General, have done? Could it be that they want to blame him for the death of their Holding Power Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang? He just wanted to live; what was wrong with that?
"You Luo Sha tribe are born evil; killing people is as simple as eating and drinking water. You are true demons, and everyone should kill you. If the Heavenly Realm didn't have you Luo Sha tribe, I don't know how many people would live happy and fulfilling lives because of it."
Li Yi scolded: "I, a human cultivator who doesn't contend with the world, was just walking on the road and accidentally spat in the direction of your Luo Sha tribe, and you want to hunt me down to the ends of the earth? Where in the world is there such logic?"
Once these words were spoken, the cultivators watching the Life and Death Hell secret realm all over the World Boat were in an uproar.
They thought this human cultivator named Tai Yi had done something heinous to the Luo Sha tribe; they didn't expect it was just spitting in the direction of the Luo Sha tribe.
This Luo Sha tribe is indeed too overbearing.
But thinking about it, it seems there is nothing wrong with that.
This is very consistent with the style of the Luo Sha tribe, and this is indeed something this group of lunatics could do.
"So that's how it is. This human Heavenly General named Tai Yi is really unlucky; he provoked a group of lunatics because of a spit. Sure enough, the Heavenly Realm is vast and full of wonders."
"Think of me, Du, who has been cultivating in the Heavenly Realm for three thousand years. I consider myself to have seen quite a bit, but today is the first time I've seen such a thing. I am truly ignorant."
"Haha, this unlucky Heavenly General, provoking anyone else would be fine, but he provoked the Luo Sha tribe. They are all mad dogs who like to bite people randomly."
All over the World Boat, whether in quiet rooms, secret realms, or halls, seeing this scene made them laugh.
However, these words could fool some ordinary cultivators, but they couldn't fool this Luo Sha tribe Heavenly General named Chi Feng.
He could discern that what Li Yi said was a lie.
"Fart, you liar," Chi Feng scolded. "Do you dare to say that the disappearance of the Holding Power Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang and Princess Manluo has nothing to do with you?"
He wanted to question him face-to-face and get to the truth of the matter.
Li Yi didn't even need to answer face-to-face; he only needed to respond, and he could let many people deduce the general truth of the matter.
"Do you Luo Sha tribe think I killed your Holding Power Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang and Princess Manluo? What is my cultivation level? Can I beat your Heavenly Kings? I did see a group of them, but I was almost killed by your Luo Sha tribe's Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang. In the end, your Luo Sha tribe people encountered a great disaster on the Sea of Returning Ruins, and I luckily escaped death and survived."
Li Yi said: "You don't dare to avenge your Luo Sha tribe's Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang because the enemies of the Sea of Returning Ruins are terrifying and powerful, so you only dare to target me. A group of bullies who fear the strong and pick on the weak."
He knew that at this point, the fact that the Holding Power Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang and Princess Manluo had met with disaster could not be hidden. It was just that as the only survivor, how the story was spun was up to him.
And his words were every bit true; even if a Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang came personally, there would be no problem.
"What he said is true..." In the adjacent secret realm, the Divine Might Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang nodded slightly while listening to Li Yi's words.
He thought there was some contradiction and conflict between the two sides; it turned out to be like this. This Tai Yi is indeed unlucky.
And in another secret realm.
The Prison-Perception Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang in charge of investigating this matter also had a very ugly expression. He could also judge that this cultivator named Tai Yi was not lying; the words just now were every bit true.
This was also consistent with his own speculation and deduction: the Holding Power Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang and Princess Manluo had met with disaster on the Sea of Returning Ruins.
Only that incomparably dangerous sea could bury a group of Luo Sha tribe powerhouses.
This human cultivator was nothing more than a lucky survivor who slipped through the net; with his little bit of strength, it was impossible for him to do anything in front of the Holding Power Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang.
But even if the matter was investigated clearly, this human cultivator named Tai Yi must die.
Because this time their Luo Sha tribe had already lost two Heavenly Generals. Although the person who moved to cut off the Luo Sha tribe's heads was the Boat Guard, in the final analysis, it was also caused by this Tai Yi.
"This King does not hope that this human Tai Yi survives the first match; this person must die," the Prison-Perception Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang said coldly.
"Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang, Chi Feng will definitely be able to handle it. He is a Heavenly General who has experienced a hundred battles, and his strength is trustworthy," a young Luo Sha tribe powerhouse on the side said.
Although this Luo Sha was only at the Heavenly General level, he was on equal footing with the Prison-Perception Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang, which showed his unusual status.
"No matter what, I must twist your head off today to go back and report," at this moment, inside the Life and Death Hell secret realm, the Luo Sha tribe Heavenly General Chi Feng still said coldly.
However, he had already completed one of his tasks for this trip: investigating the matter of the Holding Power Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang and Princess Manluo clearly.
Next, as long as he killed the person in front of him, everything would be over.
