Chapter 723
When Li Yi saw Zhang Tianxing's strange head, a strange look couldn't help but appear on his face. Rather than saying the current Zhang Tianxing was an evolver, it would be better to say he had also fallen into an Evil God.
"Zhang Tianxing, I didn't expect you to also fall into this appearance." Li Yi said.
Zhang Tianxing was still tenacious in life. With only a head left, he still showed no signs of dying, and his consciousness was not chaotic, still saying very rationally: "I just chose another path of evolution, nothing to make a fuss about. Instead, you attacked me for no reason."
"You colluded with the Evil God of the dark world, bewitched some people to help you do things, and collected the blood of evolvers. What is your purpose after all?" Ye Jingtian, standing to the side, held a purple sword and pointed at Zhang Tianxing's head, shouting and asking.
"I want to become a new god, so naturally I need my own servants. Collecting their blood makes it convenient for them to fall into the darkness later. Although their bodies will undergo some small changes, they have obtained the ability of eternal life. This is a reward for them."
Zhang Tianxing did not hide it and directly stated his purpose.
"It's actually like this." Upon hearing this, the hearts of the other cultivators couldn't help but jump.
If Zhang Tianxing had really succeeded, it was unknown how many people would have fallen into becoming part of the dark Evil God, becoming non-human, non-ghost existences. Moreover, Zhang Tianxing's ambition was great, and the blood he collected was all from relatively strong evolvers.
If those powerful evolvers all fell, then Earth would truly be finished.
Fortunately, this time they had stumbled upon the traitor Zhang Tianxing.
"So that's how it is. Will they be guided to fall into the darkness after the Evil God obtains their blood? It seems you, Zhang Tianxing, have also fought with the Evil God, and in the end, you were defeated and bewitched by the Evil God, which is why you fell into this state. No wonder even the sixth-generation AI couldn't screen out that you had a problem."
Ye Jingtian sighed with emotion.
He believed that the reason Zhang Tianxing was in this state was not voluntary, but that he had been cursed by the Evil God and finally slowly fell into this state. Otherwise, why would an evolver with a bright future associate with the Evil God of the dark world?
"Kill him and end his suffering." Li Yi said with a calm expression: "This is the best way to handle it."
"That's also true."
Ye Jingtian did not hesitate. The purple sword in his hand fell, and accompanied by the eruption of purple sword light, Zhang Tianxing's only remaining head was instantly ground into powder, directly disappearing before everyone's eyes.
"We still need to check this place again. When I was fighting the Evil God before, I discovered that as long as these things have even a piece of meat left, they can quickly recover, which is completely different from normal living bodies." Li Yi suggested.
"Good, it really is necessary to check carefully; we cannot let the tiger return to the mountain again." Ye Jingtian said.
Others also decided to help investigate.
After all, if Zhang Tianxing were to rise from the ashes, it was unknown how many people would be persecuted because of it in the future.
And after checking again, they really did discover many surviving pieces of flesh. These pieces of flesh had already turned into human shapes, looking like a baby, which was very strange.
Everyone immediately destroyed these pieces of flesh, leaving not a single omission.
"Li Yi, thanks to you this time; otherwise, if this hidden danger had popped out one day, the entire survival base would likely have been gone." After dealing with it, Ye Jingtian expressed his gratitude to Li Yi.
"It's just a small matter. The Evil God of the dark world is itself an enemy of Earth. As long as I encounter it, if I have the chance, I will definitely eliminate it. What are the losses after this battle?" Li Yi glanced at the surroundings.
Although there was the protection of the great array and other evolvers helped block the aftermath of the battle, it still affected an area.
"It can already be considered the best result. Although some places were destroyed, there were no major casualties. After all, emergency plans were well-prepared, everyone retreated in time, and that Evil God only cared about fleeing and did not stay in the survival base for long, which reduced a lot of pressure for us." Ye Jingtian said.
Li Yi said: "That's good. Since this matter is resolved, then there's nothing for me to do here, so I won't disturb you all."
He said this and prepared to leave.
"Li Yi, wait a moment." Ye Jingtian called out to him.
"Is there anything else?" Li Yi asked.
Ye Jingtian smiled and said: "I heard from Su Mu that you are looking for a person named Wang Dongtian. I had the AI Xiao Fei check this person. He used to be the person in charge of a cross-dimensional base. Later, the Mystic Object within the cross-dimensional base was requisitioned, the base was useless, so he was sent to another place... As of now, this Wang Dongtian is living in Survival Base No. 1, with S-level clearance."
"However, I think you are looking for Wang Dongtian not just purely to find this person."
Li Yi had nothing to hide, and he said: "I am looking for him to obtain a cross-dimensional coordinate. I need to cross dimensions to go to a world to complete some things."
"So that's how it is. However, this matter is not easy. Every cross-dimensional coordinate is a secret, and it is also one of our country's most precious treasures at the beginning of the Heaven-Tilting event, because every coordinate corresponds to a world, and no matter whether this world is dangerous or not, it possesses very important strategic significance." Ye Jingtian pondered: "Moreover, although Wang Dongtian was previously the person in charge of a cross-dimensional base, he did not have the qualifications to obtain cross-dimensional coordinate information."
"So even if you find him, you might not necessarily be able to get the coordinate information."
Upon hearing this, Li Yi immediately frowned: "If even Wang Dongtian doesn't have the cross-dimensional coordinate information, then who holds this information?"
"Of course, it's in the official database, and this kind of database is stored separately. Perhaps it's not even in our world anymore." Ye Jingtian said: "However, there should also be backups. I suggest you don't go looking for Wang Dongtian; you should go looking for Xiao Jianguo."
"Xiao Jianguo? The one who used to be in charge of the Demon God Realm defense line?" Li Yi immediately recalled it upon hearing this name.
"Oh, have you met him? That's even better. Xiao Jianguo is in charge of the Earth defense line, and his status is very high. As a very important strategic resource, he must know some cross-dimensional coordinate information. If he can help you, then getting a cross-dimensional coordinate will be no problem at all." Ye Jingtian said.
Li Yi said: "Which survival base is this Xiao Jianguo in?"
Ye Jingtian smiled: "He is not in a survival base; he is at the Earth defense line."
"Earth defense line?" Li Yi asked: "What kind of place is that?"
"A war base that has gathered almost the top experts on Earth. You wouldn't think that our survival base is so peaceful right now because the Profound Immortal Continent and the Demon God Realm are really kind enough to let us off, would you? It's because the real battlefield has shifted to other places." Ye Jingtian said.
"That battlefield is the Earth defense line, located near the former Tianqing City."
Li Yi was somewhat surprised: "There is such a thing? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
Ye Jingtian said: "Not just you, most people don't know, because for many people, knowing is useless. This is a contest between top experts, determining the rise and fall of a world. You will only know after you possess S-level clearance."
"If some new S-level clearance powerhouses emerge within the ten survival bases, some people will be transferred into the Earth defense line. Of course, there still have to be experts stationed within the base. On the Demon God Realm side, and on the Profound Immortal Continent side, there are guys who don't talk about martial ethics, wanting to sneak attack and destroy the survival base, cutting off our foundation."
"The reason I revealed so much to you today is because your strength, Li Yi, is already enough to know this information. Even if I continued to hide it from you, I wouldn't be able to hide it for long."
Upon hearing this, Li Yi pondered.
He didn't expect that most of the experts on Earth were gathered together, opening up a separate battlefield to determine the survival of Earth.
No wonder he hadn't seen the Demon Kings of the Demon God Realm or the Immortals of the Profound Immortal Continent; it turned out they had all gone there.
But where did Earth get the people to resist the invasion of experts of this level?
No, that's not right.
Perhaps Earth doesn't have such experts, but other worlds might not necessarily be the same.
Perhaps someone has invited foreign aid, who knows.
There are so many people crossing dimensions, it's not strange to create some miracles. The whole world is not special just because of oneself; one can find people from the Dharma-Ending cultivation world to be foreign aid.
"It looks like I also have to take a trip to the Earth defense line." Li Yi said.
Ye Jingtian said: "Not just you, I have also received a transfer order from the Earth defense line, planning to set off next month. It's just that there are some things in the base that I can't rest easy about. After all, once I leave, there will be one less expert here. I originally thought about leaving you in the survival base for a period of time to make up for the lack of experts, but now..."
He said this and couldn't help but shake his head.
Now that Zhang Tianxing had also died, if Li Yi and he both left, then the defensive strength within this survival base would be greatly reduced. Once an expert at the Great Demon level came to commit an offense, survival within the base would become a problem.
Li Yi said: "There's no need to worry about this. I can find a few people to come and help sit in the survival base. As for strength, dealing with Great Demons should be no problem."
He saw the other party's worry.
However, based on the idea of repaying the other party, he didn't mind doing this favor.
Anyway, there were still quite a few experts in the Three Flower Realm in the Dharma-Ending cultivation world waiting to cross dimensions. This time, he would just bring a batch over. If he didn't use them now, he was afraid there would be no chance to use them later.
"That's very good." A look of joy appeared on Ye Jingtian's face.
If there were experts who could fill this vacancy, then he could leave with peace of mind.
Li Yi said: "Give me a few days; I'll go and invite people."
"Good, then I'll trouble you, Li Yi." Ye Jingtian said.
The two quickly confirmed this matter.
And in order to rush to the Earth defense line as soon as possible to obtain the cross-dimensional coordinate, Li Yi did not stop, but directly found an excuse and temporarily left the survival base.
He wanted to find a place to open the cross-dimensional gate and head to the Dharma-Ending cultivation world again.
