Chapter 927: The Luo Sha Royal Clan

Having lost two consecutive battles, even if Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Yu Jue of the Luo Sha race were slow to react, he would have realized that this human Heavenly General named Tai Yi was by no means as simple as he appeared on the surface.

The opponent had not only hidden his strength, but he was also a person of extraordinary talent. If they continued to send Luo Sha powerhouses of similar standing, the outcome would likely be the same as with Chi Feng and Chi Tongling Chi.

Therefore, Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Yu Jue swept his gaze over the many Luo Sha powerhouses behind him. Although there were several Heavenly Generals he thought highly of, they were already at the third battle. If they didn't win now, they would lose all face. Besides, for every battle he lost, he had to pay Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Shen Wei a massive benefit.

The Luo Sha race could not afford to lose, and neither could he.

Subsequently, Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Yu Jue turned his gaze toward a Luo Sha Heavenly General of noble status by his side.

"Your Highness Sanye, I believe this matter requires you to go personally."

This Luo Sha Heavenly General named Sanye was different from the rest. He was of the Luo Sha Royal Clan, and his father was a Luo Sha Emperor. Although the Luo Sha Emperor had many offspring and he was not the most prominent, the reinforcement of his royal bloodline gave Sanye terrifying, incomparable strength.

His appearance on the Boundary Boat this time was purely a chance encounter.

Moreover, Sanye was not the type of spoiled disciple. He often traveled alone, taking the Boundary Boat to tour the Heavenly Realm and temper himself, all for the sake of becoming a Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang as soon as possible.

Only by becoming a Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang could he inherit a portion of the Luo Sha Emperor's fiefdom, resources, and wealth.

Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Yu Jue had also evaluated him: if nothing went wrong, he would surely break through to the Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang level within a hundred years. He was a Luo Sha of the Royal Clan with boundless potential.

"Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Yu Jue, your subordinates are mostly veterans. Although they are all experienced and battle-hardened, they lack sharpness and their potential is exhausted. To send them to fight a human genius... you think too highly of them," Sanye said with a smile. "If they could defeat a genius-level figure, they wouldn't have been stuck at the Heavenly General level for so long. I fear they would have broken through long ago."

"You are a Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang; do you not understand this principle?"

Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Yu Jue's gaze flickered. Of course, he understood what Sanye meant. The Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang realm was a hurdle in the Heavenly Realm that kept countless cultivators stuck for their entire lives.

Just like in a sea area within the Return to Ruins, there was only one King, while the rest were soldiers and generals.

Those who could become Heavenly Kings were all one in ten thousand.

He himself had been a hot young genius within the Luo Sha race back then, having suppressed countless veteran Heavenly Generals before finally breaking through to Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang by chance.

Whether it was Chi Feng or Chi Tongling Chi, they were not stunning enough. The reason they were strong was that they had been tempered by time, but there were some things that time could not accumulate.

"If that Tai Yi is not removed today, he will surely become a scourge to our Luo Sha race in the future. Your Highness Sanye, how could this King not understand the extraordinary nature of the opponent? But I have an agreement with Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Shen Wei, so I can only pin my hopes on my veteran generals. If Your Highness Sanye is willing to strike and kill this person, I am willing to gift you my Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang weapon."

Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Yu Jue spoke again, also understanding that to get His Highness Sanye to act, he had to offer some benefits.

Now, he was responsible for investigating the disappearance of Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Chili and Princess Manluo. If he didn't handle it properly and produce a satisfactory result, he would have a hard time explaining himself when he returned.

"Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang, you are being too polite. We are of the same race, and now that an outsider is acting so fiercely, I should naturally contribute." Sanye stood up with a smile. "Let me go for the third battle. I hope this Tai Yi's strength is truly as strong as it looks; otherwise, I will be disappointed."

He agreed to strike, and the two reached a deal.

At this moment, Jidu, one of the captains of the Boat Guard who had left earlier, returned. He came to collect the bet after the victory of the second great battle.

This time, Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Yu Jue paid up very readily. He had already lost so badly that it didn't matter anymore.

In the next battle, he would win it all back in one go.

After Jidu took the treasures, he just laughed and went back to report.

Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Shen Wei, who had won two battles in a row and made a fortune, did not look so happy. He said, "Just as I guessed, this Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Yu Jue is going to ask a Luo Sha powerhouse of the Royal Clan to strike."

"Therefore, this third battle is the key. If Tai Yi can win, the Luo Sha race will face a situation where they have no one left to use. At that point, they will either have to pay up or get off the boat. Paying up is just giving away money, and getting off the boat means all their previous efforts will have been in vain."

"I hope this Tai Yi can withstand this final wave of pressure and not die in the Life and Death Hell Secret Realm."

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and a jade bottle flew out, landing in the hands of the Dragon Maiden Yushang not far away.

"This is the spoils of war from Tai Yi's second battle. Take it." Shen Wei said. Like the other Heavenly God races, he was very trustworthy. To them, a word spoken by a God was as good as gold.

Breaking a promise was equivalent to demeaning their own status as a Heavenly God race.

Dragon Maiden Yushang took the jade bottle. Counting the previous ones, Li Yi had already earned four catties of Nine Heavens Divine Water. For a Heavenly General, this was already a massive fortune.

At this moment.

Inside the Life and Death Hell Secret Realm, after Li Yi won the second battle, the secret realm opened a small door again, and divine light, accompanied by boundless spiritual energy, spilled down to repair his injuries and replenish his magic power.

Although the second battle had consumed some energy, it still didn't count for much to Li Yi.

He only remembered Shen Wei's words: the third battle would be the hardest. The Luo Sha race had lost two battles in a row and would surely be going crazy. For the third battle, they would definitely arrange the strongest Heavenly General they could find to ensure the battle was foolproof.

Li Yi sat on the pure white auspicious clouds, receiving the baptism of divine light. While recovering his magic power, he also secretly prepared himself.

He understood that once he entered the Life and Death Hell Secret Realm, he wouldn't be able to leave so easily. The first two battles were just a test of his skills; the real difficulty was yet to come. Therefore, Li Yi had saved a portion of his strength from the very beginning.

"There's no need to hide anything in the third battle. I will use the Five-Colored Divine Light combined with the True Dragon Heaven-Fighting Art to kill the opponent's powerhouse in the third battle swiftly, and let those Luo Sha people know when to retreat."

Li Yi was already prepared.

If he didn't show his value now, how could Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Shen Wei protect him? Although this Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang Shen Wei was also doing it for profit, Li Yi didn't care. As long as he could help him get through this difficulty, once he found a chance to leave this place, wouldn't the vastness of the Heavenly Realm be his to roam?

Very soon.

The gates of the Life and Death Hell Secret Realm opened again.

A figure flew toward him rapidly. The opponent had an extraordinary temperament. Although he had a face like a ghost, he was born with an air of nobility, and the Luo Sha power all over his body was terrifyingly dense.

Besides that, the two horns on his forehead were golden-red, completely different from the Luo Sha he had seen before.

"A powerhouse of the Luo Sha Royal Clan?" Li Yi roughly guessed the opponent's identity.

The opponent was so different that he must be the Luo Sha Royal Clan member Shen Wei had spoken of.

"Human Tai Yi, you are quite good. To be able to kill two of our Luo Sha race's veteran generals in a row... but your luck ends here. To die today at the hands of our Luo Sha Royal Clan can be considered your honor." Sanye appeared and sneered.

"Big talk. In the end, you're still going to die." Li Yi glanced at him. "Royal Clan or not, win first before you brag. If you can't win, you're just a pile of mud, a piece of trash by the roadside."

"Haha, your mouth is very poisonous. But it doesn't matter. I'm not angry. And the thought of being able to twist your head off in a moment gives me an indescribable excitement." Sanye laughed.

He didn't hate the human in front of him; on the contrary, he only felt the excitement of fighting a strong enemy.

The Luo Sha race was born bloodthirsty and warlike, and he, as a member of the Royal Clan, was the same.

It was just that ordinary opponents couldn't pique his interest. Only those stunning geniuses were worth him striking personally.

"Stop laughing. Your dog teeth are showing. Are you afraid people won't know you can bite?" Li Yi said calmly.

As soon as these words were spoken, Sanye's smile vanished. "Interesting. I have traveled the Heavenly Realm for many years, and this is the first time I've seen a human who can curse as well as you. But don't use such low-class methods to provoke others; it won't work on me."

"Provoke you? Don't misunderstand. I never thought about provoking you; I just simply wanted to curse you. After all, you're going to die soon, and I won't be able to curse you then," Li Yi said.

"Since you like to talk so much, say a few more words. Consider it your last words." Sanye's expression was calm. Crimson light bloomed all over his body, as if he had put on a suit of blood-colored armor.

This was the Luo Sha power contained within his body. And as a member of the Royal Clan, his Luo Sha power was several times that of an ordinary Luo Sha. With this power alone, he could easily defeat a Heavenly General of the same level.

And Luo Sha power was just the bloodline power of the Luo Sha race. Besides that, his magic power was also terrifyingly vast, and combined with the power of his Primordial Spirit, his strength had reached a shocking level.

"Indeed, very unusual."

Li Yi also smelled the opponent's unusual power. His expression turned solemn, but this time he didn't intend to hold back. As for who would win, it would depend on their own means.

The brief confrontation between the two also sparked discussions among the cultivators throughout the Boundary Boat.

"It really is a powerhouse of the Luo Sha Royal Clan who has struck. I knew that with the Luo Sha race's nature, they would definitely be anxious after losing two battles. In this third battle, they must take down this human Tai Yi no matter what."

"I recognize that Luo Sha Royal Clan member. His name is Sanye. He often tours the Heavenly Realm and likes to challenge experts of various races. I heard people say he has the potential to break through to Rakshasa Rakshasa Tian Wang."

"I don't care who wins or loses; I just want to place a bet and win a fortune. This time, I'm betting on the Luo Sha Royal Clan. The human Tai Yi has already exposed his purple thunder bloodline power, and he's likely running out of steam. He'll probably die a miserable death in the third battle."

"Not necessarily. This human Tai Yi's strength is unfathomable. To dare to enter the Life and Death Hell Secret Realm, he must have something to rely on."

Some felt Li Yi would lose this time, while others felt he still had some hidden strength he hadn't brought out.

However, inside the Boundary Boat, many powerhouses were very keen on the outcome of the third battle. After all, this was a battle between a Luo Sha Royal Clan member and a human genius, which was very rare in normal times.

"If this Tai Yi can win this battle, then he will be qualified to enter the Lei Bu," a Heavenly General of the Lei Bu secretly thought.

If he won this battle, he would go and make contact with him.

As for the Boat Guard and the Luo Sha race, who wouldn't have to give the Lei Bu some face?
