NOVEL NEXT Chapter 916: An Auspicious Start
At this moment, the Devil God's Son was staring at Lin Yi with a face full of shock.
In his sights, Lin Yi's body was almost transparent, as if he was no longer flesh and blood but a peerless Divine Sword!
This kid, no matter how divine his swordsmanship, how could he be so powerful?
"This child is by no means ordinary!"
The Devil God's Son's face turned ashen. He had merely thought of Lin Yi as the tallest among dwarfs, because the Wanling Realm lacked so-called Divine's Children, that's why Lin Yi was chosen, even lacking the Demigod Bloodline, how could he possibly match him?
But unexpectedly, this Devil God's Son had stumbled!
Not right!
Although this kid had no divine aura, he certainly wasn't ordinary, yet even he couldn't see through the other.
However, the Primordial Spirit Envoy and others had no intention of giving the Demon Prison World any chances. At the moment of the Devil God's Son's retreat, he suddenly shouted,
"Victory!"
"The Child of the World has won!"
"Seize the moment, full-scale assault! The time to establish great merit has arrived!"
Under the call of the Primordial Spirit Envoy, the Wanling Realm army launched an all-out attack against the Demon Prison World army!
Now, with Lin Yi having just repelled the Devil God's Son, the morale of Wanling Realm's strong was at its peak; how could the Primordial Spirit Envoy give up this excellent opportunity?
To avoid unnecessary complications, he directly ordered a full-scale assault!
And the scene of Lin Yi repelling the Devil God's Son was indeed witnessed by everyone. This battle between the Children of the World was won by the Wanling Realm!
At this moment, it was the best chance to press on and completely defeat the Demon Prison World army!
"Kill!!!"
The Wanling Realm's boundary war army, under the shout of the Primordial Spirit Envoy, surged forward and launched a general attack on the Demon Prison World army!
"What? The Devil God Son has been defeated?"
"That Child of the World from the Wanling Realm is actually this powerful?"
In contrast, the strong army of the Demon Prison World was now wavering in morale and panic-stricken.
The Devil God Son, in their eyes, was an invincible existence, yet now he was defeated by the Wanling Realm's Child of the World, who didn't even have the Divine Bloodline!
This should have been a one-sided crushing match, but it turned into a reversal; the Devil God's Son's performance was incredibly disappointing!
Could it be that the strength of their Demon Prison World was truly inferior to the Wanling Realm?
Many strong from the Demon Prison World started to have such wavering thoughts.
The feeling of defeat spread like a plague, quickly infecting the entire Demon Prison World army.
Once the morale of a large army falters, no matter how many fighters there are, it's useless!
The fighting power would inevitably drop significantly!
With the rise of one side and the fall of another, Wanling Realm's counterattack achieved significant results, and the Demon Prison World army showed signs of collapse under Wanling Realm's high-spirited offensive!
"Damn it!"
"A bunch of useless trash! I haven't lost yet, why are you cowering?"
The Devil God Son was furious. It was just a moment of carelessness, a slight injury, not yet to the point of defeat, but these strongmen from the Demon Prison World were acting as if he had already become Lin Yi's defeated general!
This made him very angry!
"Anyone who dares to retreat will be executed!"
Seeing that some strongmen of the Demon Prison World were actively retreating, in a fit of rage, the Devil God Son swung his Battle Axe and killed dozens of deserters who had fallen out of ranks.
"Your Majesty, don't waste your energy!"
At this moment, a majestic and elderly voice sounded, it was the Demon Prison World's Boundary Envoy.
"Your injury at the hands of Wanling Realm's Child of the World is an indisputable fact!"
The Demon Prison World Envoy gently shook his head, saying, "The soldiers don't know the outcome, they just see you wounded, and naturally assume you were defeated!"
"You should know, in this battle, you can't afford any mistakes. Your error lies in getting injured in a duel you should have crushed!"
The Devil God Son's face sank, "You don't think that kid is truly incompetent, do you?"
"That kid is very mysterious, even if I exert all my strength, victory is not guaranteed!"
"How is this possible?"
The Demon Prison World Envoy was surprised, finding it unbelievable.
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
The face of the Devil God Son was grim; he also wanted to know why a kid without even the Divine Bloodline could have the ability to injure him.
For the Wanling Realm's Child of the World, they knew too little. According to their Demon Prison World intelligence, the Child of the World in Wanling Realm should have been that Demigod son Xianyu, who expected Lin Yi to appear out of nowhere; their knowledge of this person was as good as blank!
Who could have expected this kid to be so terrifyingly powerful, surpassing Xianyu by far?
"Let's retreat for now!"
The Demon Prison World Envoy took a deep look at Lin Yi, then took a deep breath and ordered the Demon Prison World army to retreat.
This battle was originally meant to ambush and severely damage the Wanling Realm, but unexpectedly, because of Lin Yi's appearance, their Demon Prison World's plan was completely wrecked!
To eliminate the Wanling Realm's boundary war army, they would need to find another opportunity.
"I, the Devil God Son, will reclaim this place in the future!"
The Devil God Son's face was grim, not expecting the Demon Prison World to withdraw so embarrassingly, and all because he was injured by Lin Yi!
To the Devil God Son, this was undoubtedly a great humiliation!
"There's a long way to go, the Seven Realms War has just begun, and there will be opportunities in the future!"
Fearing the Devil God Son might act impulsively, the Demon Prison World Envoy advised.
However, knowing the opportunity was lost, the Devil God Son was also very decisive, commanding the army to withdraw from the battlefield!
The Wanling Realm army naturally wouldn't let the enemy go easily and only stopped the pursuit after a relentless chase, exhausted.
However, after this battle, the strong of the Wanling Realm obtained massive battle merits and spoils, reaping rich rewards.
Lin Yi, though he didn't slay the Devil God Son, killed a Lower Realm Saint King, fourteen Saints, including two Half-step Saint Kings.
Accumulated a lot of battle merits.
These merits could be exchanged for resources in the Wanling Realm after the boundary war was over.
However, Lin Yi was evidently not too satisfied with this amount of battle merits, what he truly wanted was the massive merits from killing that Devil God Son!
For someone like the Devil God Son, a child of the Demon God and also the Child of the World from the Demon Prison World, with an extraordinary identity, just killing such a person might surpass all the battle merits Lin Yi gained in this battle!
After winning a great victory against the Demon Prison World's sudden attack, the Wanling Realm's boundary war army set up camp nearby for a brief rest and recuperation.
Though this battle dealt a heavy blow to the Demon Prison World, it was still a brutal boundary war, and the Wanling Realm army paid a very heavy price, with many casualties.
They needed some time to recuperate and restore the army's energy.
Lin Yi, the Child of the World, reached an unprecedented level of prestige within the boundary war army.
Everyone understood that in this encounter, the Wanling Realm was initially at a disadvantage, whether in terms of timing, location, morale, or manpower, all were inferior to the Demon Prison World!
Yet they won this battle, and more than half of the credit went to Lin Yi, this Child of the World!
Facing an opponent like the Devil God Son, Lin Yi could actually gain the upper hand, which could only be described as incredible!
"In this battle, you, the Child of the World, have rendered great service."
The Primordial Spirit Envoy's gaze also fell on Lin Yi, "I will truthfully report the merits of this battle to the Moon God, and add another entry to your meritorious service record."
However, Lin Yi didn't care much, just nodded slightly, then glanced at Lu Qingcheng among the army.
Then he whispered a few words into the Primordial Spirit Envoy's ear.
"I understand."
The Primordial Spirit Envoy's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Lu Qingcheng from afar, showing a meaningful expression, "Unexpectedly, the Child of the World's Dao Companion is also among the boundary war army. Rest assured, as long as this Boundary Envoy is alive, I will ensure her safety for you."
Who is Lin Yi?
Even if his identity as the Child of the World is set aside, he is someone favored by the Moon God. Even as a Boundary Envoy, I must maintain a good relationship with Lin Yi.
Moreover, what Lin Yi entrusted me with is but a trivial matter.
