Outside Jinxiao City, it was dead silent.
Even for those top geniuses, when they saw Ning Huang's head on top of the city gates, they felt a wave of shock in their hearts.
They had come to watch the show, to see how Ye Futian would die.
But what they got was a demonic figure. Ye Futian did not die. The one who died was Ning Huang.
The domineering top genius who commanded the experts of Jinxiao City had been beheaded. One could imagine the impact they had to bear.
Even Nan Hao had not expected such an ending. Perhaps the youth from the Eastern Barren Territory who had come to the Holy Road was even more monstrous than he had imagined.
"How can this be?" On the air warship, the Virgin of the Mortal World, Bing Yi, was stunned. This scene had overturned everything she knew.
Not only them, but everyone present was speechless. Then, those who had followed Ye Futian to comprehend the Flaming Prison City relic revealed a look of fanaticism in their eyes. They felt their hearts surging and their blood was boiling.
Previously, Ning Huang had sent people to kill them and caused a bloodbath in Flaming Prison City. He had taken away Ye Futian's friends and wanted to force Ye Futian to death. When Ye Futian had stepped into Jinxiao City, they had felt tragic. But they had never imagined that Ye Futian would bring out Ning Huang's head after entering.
Ning Huang probably wouldn't have thought of this even in his dreams. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so overbearing.
Mu Zhiqiu and the Starry School disciples were the most shocked. No one knew what had happened in the city. They could not imagine the situation inside. Not only was Ning Huang in Jinxiao City, but there were also thousands of experts following him. Where were they?
At that moment, the auras of many figures burst forth. The cultivators who had followed Ye Futian all stood up straight and guarded the city. At that moment, they would naturally listen to Yu Sheng's orders. Now, they felt honored to do so.
They knew very well that Jinxiao City had changed owners. Ye Futian would very likely open the second relic. It would be another opportunity.
Although it was impossible for the guards to block all the experts outside, who would dare to barge in so easily?
Ning Huang's head was on the city gate. Even if they could barge into Jinxiao City, would they not be afraid of death?
Ye Wuchen, Loulan Xue, and Mu Zhiqiu flashed into the city, wanting to see what had happened.
Previously, Ye Futian did not let them follow him into the city. They naturally understood that it was because their plane was not high enough. If they entered Jinxiao City, they would only be a burden.
"I'll go take a look." She only saw Yu Sheng and did not know how Ye Futian was doing. She was a little worried. "What happened to Ye Futian?
Furthermore, with her relationship with Ye Futian, Yu Sheng would not go so far as to kill her.
When Ye Wuchen and the others arrived at the battlefield, they could only see corpses all over the ground. Their hearts could not help but tremble violently.
Qin Yin and the others were cleaning up the battlefield, preparing to bury these people. They knew that everything that they had just experienced could only be buried in their hearts, treating it as a dream. It was just that this dream was too realistic and shocking.
"Lou Lan, do it." Ye Wuchen said. He took a step forward and headed in a certain direction. His sword pierced into the ground and actually tore open a terrifying fissure. Mu Zhiqiu also went up to help. Powerful Starry Will burst forth, causing the ground to tremble as if there was an earthquake.
"The Holy Road opens once every three years. Strong cultivators from all over the Barren State gather here. Moreover, the death rate on the Holy Road is extremely high. Therefore, those who die on the Holy Road usually do not know how they died or who killed them. These people are all buried here, so they should not have any companions. However, after burying them, Jinxiao City cannot allow others to set foot in."
Mu Zhiqiu's expression was solemn as she spoke to Ye Futian, who was sitting cross-legged.
Ye Futian did not say anything, but Qin Yin and the others were extremely unsettled. They knew what Mu Zhiqiu meant. For example, they came from Mount Jiuxian. Other than the people of Mount Jiuxian, no one knew their identities. If they all died in Jinxiao City this time, no one would know how they died.
Unless someone like Ning Huang died, it would not be hidden, because everyone knew him.
However, because too many people had died in Jinxiao City this time, it was inevitable that there would be people outside who knew them. If they knew that they had entered Jinxiao City, there would still be some danger.
"The Holy Road is the trial of the Holy Zhi Palace. Once you enter the Holy Road, life and death are determined by fate. However, even so, Ning Huang's death is still troublesome. One of his elders is an important figure in the Holy Zhi Palace." Mu Zhiqiu looked at Yu Sheng deeply. She did not know how Ning Huang had died, but Yu Sheng's roar was to tell everyone that he had killed Ning Huang.
However, looking at the scene before her, she knew that it was not so simple. Ye Futian's aura was very weak, as if he had experienced a terrifying battle.
"Ning Huang wanted to kill us, and this is the Holy Road of the Holy Zhi Palace. Even that important figure can't say anything, right?" Li Qingyi stood beside Ye Futian and said to Mu Zhiqiu.
"Ning Huang naturally deserved to die, but everyone has their own standpoint. The important figure of the Holy Zhi Palace had high hopes for Ning Huang and was his elder. Naturally, he would stand on his side. Now, Ning Huang is dead," Mu Zhiqiu said. Li Qingyi bit her lip. She also knew that Mu Zhiqiu was right.
"What about the others in Jinxiao City?" Yi Xiaoshi stood beside Ye Futian and asked.
During the battle, many strong cultivators had gathered here, but Jinxiao City was very big. There were still people who had not arrived and were in other parts of the city.
"I had Little Condor watch the surroundings. Since those people did not come to help Ning Huang, then forget it. They followed Ning Huang before and will submit to us in the future," Ye Futian said. He had already ordered the city to be sealed. Now, he needed to control these people.
"Yes." Yi Xiaoshi nodded and said, "You and Yu Sheng rest well. We'll take care of things here."
"Alright." Ye Futian was indeed very tired. He looked at Yu Sheng. This time, Yu Sheng had comprehended Noble Will. Although he had demonized, he had better control over his demonized power. He would not completely lose control.
Closing his eyes, Ye Futian relaxed. He would not think about what would happen next for now.
…
Days passed. The shock of Ning Huang's death still did not fade.
Moreover, another person had fallen in the Dawn Road, causing a huge commotion.
Sage Duantian's personal disciple, Gu Feiyang, had been killed by Xiao Junyi. The city had been taken over by Xiao Junyi. At the same time, Xiao Junyi had opened the relic to cultivate, causing a huge commotion.
Xiao Junyi was even more ruthless than that demon. Ye Futian, Yu Sheng, and the others had been forced by Ning Huang. If they did not go to Jinxiao City, Ning Huang would not let them go. However, Xiao Junyi had hunted them down in a frenzy. Who knew how much blood had stained his hands, turning them into the Army of the Dead. He had even killed Gu Feiyang.
Xiao Junyi and Yu Sheng were known as the two demons of the Dawn Road. No one was willing to provoke them.
With two such figures appearing, the other top-notch geniuses naturally could not sit still. Their actions, both in the open and in the dark, became even more frenzied. Many people were killed inexplicably or had their holy badges stolen. It did not seem to be the work of those top-notch geniuses, but no one knew whether they were the ones behind it or not. The blood that had been stirred up in the Dawn Road was probably more terrifying than it had been in the past. Countless people had lost their lives here.
On this day, Jinxiao City, which had been silent for many days, suddenly sent out news that Ye Futian had ordered the collection of a thousand holy badges. Those who were willing to give up a holy badge could comprehend the great relic of Jinxiao City together.
This time, the holy badges would not be returned.
Many people could understand. Even Ning Huang had been killed. The prestige of Ye Futian's group was no longer the same as before. Now, he was not begging them, but giving them a chance. In an instant, many people followed him. Too many people wanted to enter Jinxiao City to hand over their holy badges. After all, they had experienced it once. They were all willing to trust Ye Futian.
Now, Ye Futian's rallying power could be said to be the strongest in the Dawn Road. Although Xiao Junyi was strong, who dared to work with him?
Soon, Ye Futian had collected a thousand holy badges. It was much easier than the last time.
At that moment, within Jinxiao City, an incomparably magnificent relic appeared. Incomparably dazzling golden light shone, as if it was going to illuminate the entire Jinxiao City.
Above the void, an incomparably huge golden figure appeared, like a peerless god of war.
In the center of this god of war, a figure floated there. Endless light shone on that figure, making that burly figure look even more heroic and extraordinary. That figure was Yu Sheng.
Ye Futian did not inherit this relic. Instead, he let Yu Sheng inherit it.
Yu Sheng cultivated in domineering demonic might. In addition to demonic power, there was also domineering metal-elemental power. Furthermore, this relic should be suitable for him. Although Yu Sheng still wanted to give it to him, he firmly refused.
Furthermore, Yu Sheng had obtained Ning Huang's halberd, and even his offensive technique, the God-Slaying Halberd. Back when Ye Futian fought Ning Huang, he felt that the God-Slaying Halberd was very powerful. If Yu Sheng's power was used to unleash it, the power of the first move, the God Suppressing Strike, would be on a completely different level from Ning Huang's.
Now that Yu Sheng had inherited this relic, his power would definitely rise to another level.
At that moment, Ye Futian stepped into the relic. Looking at the crowd, he said, "Everyone, enter the relic to cultivate."
"Yes." Everyone nodded. Then, their bodies flashed as they entered the relic one after another.
Outside Jinxiao City, someone in the void looked forward. Far away, a golden light rose up and said, "The relic has opened."
They knew that after Ye Futian collected the holy badges and Ning Huang's, he had opened the second relic.
Then, the news began to spread, spreading towards the Holy Road. For a moment, countless people's hearts trembled.
Ye Futian alone had opened two major relic. He had also occupied the relic of Jinxiao City.
Hearing this news, the geniuses of the other top forces sped up their collection of holy badges. They all had to open a relic in the Holy Road.
More than ten days later, Ye Futian and Yu Sheng broke through to the ninth level of the Arcana Plane, which was also the last level of the Arcana Plane.
In the Flaming Prison City relic, they had planned to break through to this level, but because of Ning Huang's coercion, they had to leave the relic. Now, they were breaking through to the second relic.
