When advancing to the Seventh Tier, many factors can determine the quality of the Golden Body.

For example, the time spent refining the essence of life, the quality of the Martial Infant, the quality of the Divine Mansion, and so on.

It's worth mentioning that Ye Li has always gone all out in refining these factors.

After all, you can earn back your Malice Points, but once you break through a realm, it's very difficult to break through again without changing your original level.

That is truly a very good quality.

This also brought the quality of his Golden Body to an unprecedented level.

"Call--"

Ye Lijin's eyes shone brightly as he let out a soft breath.

His powerful true energy circulated rapidly within his body, and with the blessing of [Golden Soul Revival], he was able to completely suppress his opponent in physical combat!

The Baiyi master stands tall in the world, his magnificent presence truly astonishing.

Without the slightest hesitation, he gripped the Divine Spear in his hand and his slender figure swept down from the sky.

On the vast land, Isabella struggled to suppress her emotions and raised the Holy Sword with one hand.

Then they collided with the Baiyi charging towards them once more!

A deafening roar.

No miracle occurred; the Holy Sword shattered, and Isabella, with her arm severed, was instantly thrown back a thousand feet, crashing heavily into the jagged mountain wall!

On the silver armor was a deep, bone-revealing wound.

"..."

Ye Li's clothes fluttered as he casually put away the broken half of the Holy Sword, then picked up his spear and charged towards her again!

Isabella's face was deathly pale. She struggled to lift her head, and golden blood, the blood of Martial Dao Grandmaster, seeped from her seven orifices.

The moment her eyes met those cold, Golden Eyes, a deep despair welled up inside her.

How could anyone in the world fight someone of a higher level than themselves at the Dao Observation Realm?!

Just how high is this person's Golden Body? Is there anyone in the world who can fight him on the same level?!

Let's avoid the limelight for now...

Isabella gritted her teeth, channeled her inner energy, and pulled herself out of the mountain wall, beginning her first retreat.

Ye Li followed him like a shadow.

The two appeared and disappeared in the mountains, leaving behind a trail of golden blood that splattered on the ground.

Soon, with a metallic clang, Isabella, her armor shattered, was slammed heavily onto the ground!

Dust rose everywhere.

Ye Li stepped onto that holy face, leaned forward, and looked down at this Knight King who had an astonishing reputation in the Federation, calmly asking:

"Isabella, is this your regal bearing?"

"Mmm!--"

Isabella bit her lip tightly, golden blood spilling from the corner of her mouth. She tried her best to pull at her face, but the foot pressing down on her was useless.

They could only stare intently at the other person with their clear eyes to express their grief, indignation, and resentment.

As the Knight King of the Federation Temple, he was actually trampled underfoot by a mere talent in the mountains of the Federation homeland...

Shame!

Such an attitude is truly a disgrace!

"I'll give you a chance because you have such backbone."

He ignored her eyes, which were practically spitting fire.

Ye Li slightly increased the pressure on his foot and casually said, "If you obediently do as I say, I might consider sparing your lives."

Such goals are truly rare, and he wanted to try recycling them.

It's clear that this temple Knight King doesn't seem to be very afraid of death.

This is normal, after all, they are outstanding figures of the previous generation who were on whom high hopes were placed, and they still possess extraordinary resilience and integrity.

However, it's not a big problem.

Even if someone is not afraid of death, there will always be things they are afraid of.

"... You can forget about it..."

Isabella's voice was hoarse, and her holy face continued to distort at the boy's feet, yet a trace of determination still lingered in her eyes.

I'll give you two choices.

Ye Li seemed unconcerned, saying indifferently, "First, behave yourself, and I'll give you special permission to take that bunch of defeated soldiers back."

"Secondly, fight to the death, and let those Federation soldiers die gloriously alongside you here."

As he spoke, he withdrew his foot and stepped back. "Choose one."

Upon hearing this...

Ignoring the boy's movements, Isabella abruptly stood up and looked at Ye Li, her flustered and hoarse voice echoing in the wind:

"What you up to?!"

What do I want to do?

Ye Li glanced sideways at him and replied in a matter-of-fact tone:

"Your Federation warriors ambushed me in the Secret Realm first, and then sent a king-level expert to attack me. What do you think I want to do?"

"Of course, kill."

He remained calm and said indifferently, "But don't worry, I'll kill them first, then you, and I guarantee you'll see everything before you die."

"You demon!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Isabella could no longer contain her grief and indignation. "The temple will never let you get away with this!"

Ye Li, slightly amused, countered with a question:

"You didn't let me go in the first place, did you two Federation kings come here to welcome me?"

Upon hearing this, Isabella was about to answer "yes".

But then she suddenly realized—

Why would Huaxia, who has no prior grudge against Han Xia, suddenly attack the Federation warriors in the Secret Realm?

Why would the Federation send two kings to greet us here?

Now, everything has a reason—

Ambush and kill Ye Li!

A look of realization dawned on Isabella's eyes, and she murmured unconsciously:

"How could I not have imagined that the Federation wanted to kill you..."

"It's pointless to discuss these things now."

Ye Li interrupted her directly, his bright black eyes calm. "Come, make your choice."

"..."

Isabella remained silent for a long time, then asked in a trembling voice, "What do you want me to do?"

"It's very simple."

Ye Li's voice was calm, his eyes mocking as he looked at her. "Remove your armor first."

"Then show off your kingly demeanor."

As he spoke, he took the broken half of the Holy Sword from his storage ring and threw it on the ground with a clatter:

"I've been wondering ever since, if you were practically naked, could you still manage to shout those lines so convincingly?"

"Consider this a lesson learned."

"I hope that next time you face someone else's life, you can maintain basic respect and at least wait until you understand the situation before drawing your sword."

Isabella's mind went completely blank as she listened to the boy's calm words.

The kind of thing the other person is talking about.

It was practically asking her to personally shatter the dignity she was so proud of.

If someone had said such things to him under normal circumstances, this Knight King would have certainly punished that loose tongue with the Holy Sword of the temple.

However, the boy's Divine Spear were not without their drawbacks.

Sacrifice is also an important part of chivalry.

Isabella asked herself the question.

Which is more important to me: dignity or chivalry?

The answer is obvious.

Furthermore, despite the bizarre content of the words.

But the Killing Intent in the boy's dark eyes remained clearly visible.

Without a doubt.

This Master Huaxia was not joking with her.

For a time, the mountains fell into a long, deathly silence.

Soon, the sound of silver armor hitting the ground echoed intermittently.

Immediately afterwards, a clear voice, dignified and solemn, yet tinged with a distinct sob, echoed from the valley:

This is...

"The aura of a king!"

The moment the words fell, golden holy light shot up from the ground, but this time it appeared particularly tragic.

[Detection indicates that Temple Knight King Isabella's Dao Heart is nearing collapse; Malice Points +!]

Seeing this situation.

Ye Li's brows relaxed, and his previous frustration finally vanished.

He didn't hold back his praise at all, and chuckled softly:

"You truly are a veteran actor; I'm quite impressed that you could even manage that."
