The Post Sky Tipping Era

The Immortal Dao Battleship transformed into a streak of Red Gold Divine Light and streaked across this ancient land, flying towards Earth at incredible speed under the control of the Intelligent Brain Hongji.

The Barbaric World and Earth are interconnected, allowing free travel without opening a Cross-border Gate. However, the danger level of this world is high; most of the evolvers and cultivators who came perished, which is why the Barbaric World hasn't been explored much.

But this situation is changing.

When the Immortal Dao Battleship flew to Beihuai City, it immediately detected several cultivator presences, and the Intelligent Brain Hongji instantly issued an alert.

"Have the cultivators from the Xuanxian Continent already explored Beihuai City?" Li Yi's gaze flickered but he paid no heed.

The Xuanxian Continent keeps its eye on Earth, not for Earth itself, but because Earth is merely a transfer station, connecting to various peculiar worlds, which is why those cultivators spare no effort to settle on Earth.

The resources from just this one Barbaric World are enough for those cultivators to feast upon.

Of course, there are risks.

The Divine Blood Warriors in this world are extremely powerful, able to kill Mahayana Cultivators barehanded. Encountering the Hundred Mountain Master or the One God means even an Immortal could die. Li Yi knows this well and is cautious in exploring this Barbaric World, with the only aggressive action being capturing Red Gold Mountain.

And when the Immortal Dao Battleship flew over Beihuai City, again passing the valley where Divine remains were buried, Li Yi had Hongji pause for a while.

From high above, he overlooked the valley and saw it was filled with red roots, bulging and pulsing like blood vessels, seemingly alive.

These are the roots of the Golden Apple Tree, originally planted by Li Yi in this valley to absorb the residual Divine Power from the remains.

"This is the aura of the Dark World." Xuan Yuezi frowned, sensing the evil aura of that world sharply, as she and Li Yi once nearly got ambushed by the Evil God in the Dark World.

Li Yi remained silent, observing the silver tree growing in the valley.

A fruit had grown on the silver tree now, resembling silver in its entirety, exuding a metallic sheen, with lightning-like patterns, surrounded by thunder, appearing extraordinarily mystical.

"Just as I thought, the seeds of the Golden Apple Tree have blossomed and borne fruit here." Li Yi's gaze flickered, then he flew out, intending to pick the fruit.

The initial planting, now is the time for harvest.

However, soon.

Li Yi felt a familiar aura, flicked his finger, sending a surge of Mana straight toward the Divine Valley.

As the Mana approached within ten kilometers of the valley, light from the Grand Array soared, transforming into countless sharp Sword Qi that annihilated the Mana completely.

"Li Yi, this is the Mountain Protection Array of the Sword Control Sect, indicating that experts from the Sword Control Sect have occupied this place." At this moment, Luo Bing, a Mahayana Cultivator, also flew from the battleship, glanced around, and promptly warned.

"I can see that. I detected the cultivator presence in Beihuai City earlier. The people from Xuanxian Continent have already reached into this world, and naturally wouldn't spare the Divine remains valley. The Golden Apple Tree I planted is so extraordinary; anyone with eyes wouldn't miss it." Li Yi said calmly.

The activation of the Grand Array immediately drew the attention of the experts of the Sword Control Sect.

They flew out from an inconspicuous cave outside the valley, like sharp swords cutting through the sky.

"This place is now my Sword Control Sect's residence, everyone please leave quickly, or don't blame us for being unkind." The leading Mahayana Sword Cultivator glared at Li Yi and the others.

If not for the exceptional strength of this group, they would have already taken action without a word.

Li Yi merely glanced and then gestured: "Luo Bing, Fei Xue, Master Xuanzhen, since they're the Sword Control Sect's experts, please take care of them for me. Don't let anyone escape."

"Yes." Luo Bing's face changed, responded immediately, and a Red Gold Divine Sword appeared in her hand.

Though same in the Mahayana Realm, Luo Bing's power is inferior to the Sword Cultivator of the Sword Control Sect, but with the aid of the Red Gold Divine Sword, it's different.

Instantly, Luo Bing wielded her Mana, slashing out a sword strike, where Red Gold Divine Light bloomed, vast power surged overwhelmingly.

"Courting death."

The Sword Cultivator of the Sword Control Sect was furious, extended his sword finger, his Lifebound Flying Sword carried terrifying sword light up towards the sky, without hesitation, slashing at Luo Bing.

Yet when the Red Gold Divine Light shone upon, with just one strike, the Sword Cultivator's Lifebound Flying Sword was blown away, simultaneously suffering serious injuries, his body shook, blood spewed out.

Just one strike caused severe injury.

At this moment, Fei Xue and Master Xuanzhen, the two Mahayana Cultivators, also rushed out from the Immortal Dao Battleship, wielding Red Gold Divine Swords charging over.

Witnessing this scene, the Sword Cultivator was astounded.

So many experts, and wielding weapons almost akin to Immortal Artifacts, it's absolutely impossible for him alone to resist.

"Immortal, save me." The Sword Cultivator shouted loudly, while crushing a small jade sword.

Due to the special nature of the Divine remains valley, the Sword Control Sect has a Sword Immortal stationed here, to ensure obtaining the opportunity without fail.

Following the Sword Cultivator's cry for help.

The next moment.

An Immortal Sword, swept with Spiritual Energy spanning hundreds of miles, transformed into boundless Sword Rays, like a roaring dragon rushing forth, this strike seemed like the Heavenly River pouring down, intending to obliterate everyone here.

This was a peak strike from a Sword Immortal, terrifying to behold.

"Trouble." Luo Bing, Fei Xue, and Master Xuanzhen immediately showed an expression of utter terror at this sight.

```

They never expected that there would be a Sword Immortal hidden here.

The immense Sword Qi enveloped them, leaving no escape.

However, Li Yi remained indifferent.

He had fought Sword Immortals before, not worth mentioning, and besides, it wasn't his turn to act now.

From within the Immortal Dao Battleship, an Immortal's figure charged out. In a mere instant, a mana filled with the Five Elements intertwined, transforming into an extreme brilliance. Once this brilliance appeared, the heavens and earth split apart in an instant.

Even though the sword light, like a Heavenly River, poured down, it still couldn't overwhelm everyone.

"Just a mere Human Immortal, yet you dare to be arrogant. Today, I shall slay you."

Xiang Xiangzi's expression was cold and full of killing intent, with three flowers blooming above her head, each Tao Flower blossoming with nine petals, achieving perfection.

She had stayed in the Incense World for so long and obtained numerous opportunities in the Barbaric World. Now, Xiang Xiangzi was already a cultivator of Great Perfection, in terms of strength, she could fight True Immortals and Demon Kings.

With that said.

Xiang Xiangzi pointed a finger, and under her mana's condensation, it transformed into a True Dragon that charged forth to attack.

The dragon's roar reverberated through nine heavens, frighteningly filled with killing intent, a single roar enough to shake and destroy the skies of the earth.

Upon reaching Great Perfection, Xiang Xiangzi's every movement contained unimaginable might, able to harness the might of the heavens and earth.

Seeing the True Dragon of mana attacking, the Sword Immortal, seated at Cloud Sea Peak, suddenly shrunk his eyes. Just the impact of the roar made him tremble, feeling unable to oppose.

"A True Immortal-level powerhouse?"

The Sword Immortal was shocked and panicked, promptly turned to leave, wanting to directly instant teleport, but the power of this strike already shook the space, blocking his teleportation opportunity, so he could only transform into a sword light, fleeing towards the depths of the Barbaric World.

Yet, despite his escape technique being fast, the speed of the True Dragon's attack was even faster.

In just a moment, he was swallowed whole by the True Dragon.

The Sword Immortal roared in terror, erupting with peak combat strength, wielding the Immortal Sword, clad in battle armor, wanting to fight his way out of the True Dragon's belly, but Xiang Xiangzi's power was too terrifying.

The True Dragon merely roared, shattering the Sword Immortal's body, obliterating the Primordial Spirit and leaving but his Lifebound Immortal Sword intact.

"Return." Xiang Xiangzi waved her hand.

The True Dragon, possessing intelligence, turned and flew back, spitting out the Immortal Sword as a trophy.

"Very good." Xiang Xiangzi took the Immortal Sword, nodding in satisfaction.

"A Sword Immortal was destroyed just like that?" Upon witnessing this scene, Luo Bing, Fei Xue, and Master Xuanzhen all jumped in shock, their hearts horrified. They originally thought Li Yi's power was limited to below True Immortal.

Now, with the Immortal's action, it's clear that even True Immortals must retreat.

Xuanxian Continent is about to face reckoning.

The three felt a chill in their hearts.

Being able to counter True Immortals, along with Li Yi having so many cultivation experts akin to Great Demons under his command, he could completely dominate Xuanxian Continent, invincible unless all True Immortals joined forces to defeat him.

But that's impossible, True Immortals have their own agendas, how could they be so selfless and join forces to repel the enemy?

However, they have already betrayed Xuanxian Continent, and cannot care about much now. They must quickly earn merit, show their value, or else in the future reckoning, they might not escape unscathed.

The three acted again, swiftly killing the Sword Cultivators of Sword Control Sect, wiping out their stationed site, and destroying the Hill Protection Array left here.

Seeing the array destroyed, Li Yi then flew towards the valley: "You stay here and wait for me for a moment."

He was going to pick the fruit.

Moreover, Li Yi could see that the Sword Immortal having not taken the Silver Apple, wasn't because he didn't want to, but because he lacked the Divine Bloodline, entering the valley would result in him being attacked by the residual Divine power within the valley.

Even at this level of strength, one cannot ignore the power of the Divine.

But Li Yi was unaffected.

He was a Divine Blood Direct Lineage Warrior, upon entering the valley, he wasn't attacked, and was surrounded by the golden flames of the World Dragon, suppressing the evil god's creations.

Soon.

Li Yi arrived under the gigantic silver tree, he saw the tree trunk grown with a human face, that face exuded a mysterious majesty like an ancient divine entity.

His approach startled the tree, the human face on the trunk opened its eyes, recoiling from slumber.

"My bloodline descendant, you have finally appeared."

The face on the trunk spoke, the voice seemed to echo from the ancient depths of the earth, immensely desolate.

"The Gold Apple Tree, after absorbing the Divine's remains, unexpectedly mutated, growing a face that appears to possess the will of the Divine who once perished here." Li Yi's face changed, immediately feeling apprehensive.

He worried that the will of that Divine had been corrupted by the evil god, becoming an uncontrollable powerful enemy.
