Chapter 724

Li Yi did not go very far after leaving Survival Base No. 8. After about a hundred kilometers, he found a relatively safe place and then stopped.

After confirming there were no abnormalities in the surroundings, he took out the cross-dimensional machine, placed three complete Mystic Objects as energy sources, and then confirmed the cross-dimensional coordinate.

Following the shooting out of an incomparably brilliant beam of energy, the space in front of him instantly twisted, afterward forming a space gate. And after adjustment, a world gradually appeared behind the space gate.

That was a valley filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, quiet and peaceful. The only drawback was the absence of spiritual energy of heaven and earth. If one set aside the influence of this factor, this world was still very suitable for living.

Li Yi did not waste time, quickly passed through the cross-dimensional gate, and returned to the Dharma-Ending cultivation world again.

And with the opening of the cross-dimensional gate, spiritual energy dissipated in the valley.

Sensing the appearance of this spiritual energy, the cultivators within the valley successively noticed it.

"The cross-dimensional gate has opened again. It's Tai Yi; he's back."

"Quickly go and assemble in front of the Great Hall. This time our cross-dimensional opportunity has come."

"Haha, finally waited for the cross-dimensional gate to open."

For a time, these cultivators were all incomparably excited. Moreover, their steps were vigorous, their bodies as light as swallows, and in just a moment's time, they all arrived together in front of the Tai Yi Hall on the mountaintop.

Clearly, the martial arts they practiced also had some achievements. Although they couldn't fly to the sky or burrow into the earth like before, there was no problem with crossing mountains and ridges.

After these cultivators arrived, they saw Li Yi waiting here early.

Compared to a few months ago, Li Yi's aura was now even more astonishing. Just standing there was almost enough to make people unable to breathe, and the power of the Dragon and Tiger was even more astonishing than last time.

Almost not inferior to a Three Flower powerhouse.

The cultivators who arrived felt a chill in their hearts at this moment, and at the same time were exceptionally shocked.

One must know that when they followed Li Yi here back then, Li Yi had just stepped into the Five Qi Realm, but now he was already comparable to a peak Three Flower powerhouse. Such a cultivation speed was truly unprecedented.

Even if their strength had recovered to its peak, they would be unable to rival Li Yi at this moment.

"Greetings, Tai Yi."

Not daring to have the slightest slack, every cultivator who came here bowed respectfully to Li Yi at the first opportunity.

"Seniors, some polite formalities can be dispensed with. This time I opened the cross-dimensional gate because I have something to seek the help of you seniors." Li Yi said directly, getting straight to the point: "Seniors who are willing to help me, please follow me across dimensions. If you are not willing, I will not force you."

Although his words were straightforward, the cultivators who arrived also had no look of displeasure.

Having practiced the Dao for hundreds of years, only then did they have their current strength, and they were not three-year-old children. Naturally, they understood that there was no free lunch in the world. Tai Yi taking people from the Dharma-Ending world across dimensions to leave was naturally because he valued the value of their strength after it recovered.

If you are unwilling to sell your life, why would others kindly send you away from this world to re-cultivate the Great Dao?

Therefore, they had already made this psychological preparation when they followed Li Yi to Baoting back then.

"Tai Yi, this old Daoist is willing to work for Tai Yi. Tai Yi, just give your orders."

"Not bad, this poor Daoist is also willing to work for Tai Yi."

"As long as I can return to the peak, let alone work, what does it matter if this old life is taken?"

These cultivators successively spoke up.

"Good, then seniors, prepare yourselves. In a quarter of an hour, I will open the cross-dimensional gate, and we will leave this world together." Li Yi nodded and said.

At this time, a Daoist called True Person Ziyu walked over and said: "Tai Yi, there are still quite a few cultivators in Baoting willing to join this place. If we accept them gradually, we can also win over quite a few cultivation experts. Moreover, besides Baoting, there are also cultivators in other places who are struggling to support themselves. Since Tai Yi is short of people, why not make use of them?"

"If everyone crosses dimensions and leaves, there will be no one to manage this matter. After a long time, I'm afraid many people will return to dust and earth."

"That makes sense." Upon hearing this, Li Yi's expression stirred.

This True Person Ziyu clearly wanted to scrape this Dharma-Ending cultivation world one more time before leaving, taking away all the cultivation experts who could be taken. After all, it would be a pity to stay here and sit and die.

Although the Dharma-Ending cultivation world had already declined.

But this was a great world. If one scraped it, there would really be surprises.

What are forty-nine Three Flower Realms?

If True Person Ziyu's plan went smoothly, Li Yi might be able to gather hundreds, thousands of Three Flower Realm experts, plus the red-gold Daoist weapons being refined on the Red Gold Mountain in the Wild World.

This would properly be a great army.

"This matter is very important. Which senior can handle it for me?" Li Yi asked.

True Person Ziyu immediately said: "Tai Yi, just leave this matter to this old Daoist. This old Daoist has a Thunder Fighter, covering a thousand miles in an instant, and completing this matter will be easy."

He volunteered to stay behind and accomplish this matter for Li Yi.

Although others also wanted to take on this matter—after all, it was a great merit, and Tai Yi definitely wouldn't treat them badly in the future—they hesitated when they thought about crossing dimensions and leaving immediately.

The future is unpredictable, and crossing dimensions one step ahead to recover cultivation is ultimately a good thing.

Seeing True Person Ziyu volunteer, Li Yi nodded and said: "Good, then I will trouble you, True Person, with this matter. Next time I open the cross-dimensional gate, I will definitely take all of you away from this world."

"However, this matter is laborious, and I have nothing to give you, True Person, so I will give this red-gold divine sword to you, True Person, for self-protection."

Afterward, he took out a red-gold divine sword from the Red-Gold Five-Element Bracelet and gave it to True Person Ziyu.

Other cultivators saw that red-gold divine sword and their eyes went straight.

"This, this is an inherited Daoist weapon refined by the Daoist Weapon Sect?"

"It's the weapon-refining technique of Master Tiangong of the Daoist Weapon Sect, but it's not as simple as an inherited Daoist weapon. That red gold is extraordinarily divine; I'm afraid even inherited Daoist weapons are inferior."

"Hiss, an inherited divine sword in peak condition that hasn't been eroded by the Dharma-Ending."

Seeing the red-gold divine sword, there was no Three Flower Realm cultivator who was not tempted.

After all, in the Dharma-Ending period, one couldn't even see a peak low-grade Daoist weapon, let alone a weapon of this level that surpassed inherited Daoist weapons. With that surging divine might, they had no doubt that one only needed to swing it to cut mountains and split rivers and seas.

In this current period, holding this sword was enough to destroy heaven and earth.

Others were successively incomparably envious.

They wished they could stay behind to handle things themselves. After all, one only needed to stay for a year or a year and a half to obtain a red-gold divine sword.

"Many thanks to Tai Yi for bestowing the sword." The usually steady True Person Ziyu also had a look of joy on his face at this moment. He was not polite, and after receiving the red-gold divine sword, he bowed respectfully to Li Yi.

Moreover, his words were very clever, not saying Li Yi gave the sword, but saying Li Yi bestowed the sword.

This indicated that Li Yi was his superior, and only a superior could use the word "bestow."

Li Yi nodded slightly: "In the Dharma-Ending era, cultivators have mostly declined, and their lifespans are not long. I will return in a year or a year and a half at the earliest, so I will bestow some Life Water and Lifespan Pills upon you, Senior. You can use these items to extend their lives and endure until the moment I arrive."

He afterward took out a large bottle of Life Water, as well as Lifespan Pills obtained from the Four Seas and Bazhou.

These items were priceless treasures in this world.

However, Li Yi's strength was now powerful, and these items were not of particularly great use to him, so he directly sent out a batch, allowing True Person Ziyu to better recruit experts.

"With these two items, the great matter is accomplished." True Person Ziyu immediately said with certainty.

Perhaps there would be some cultivation experts who were reluctant to leave their homeland, thinking of sitting and dying within the sect, but he believed that the moment he took out the Lifespan Pills and Life Water, those experts would definitely follow him to this place without hesitation.

But it is better to have quality than quantity.

True Person Ziyu planned to recruit mainly Three Flower and Two Flower Realm cultivators, because he felt that Li Yi needed a batch of very powerful cultivators, and those with weak strength were estimated to be of no use.

After arranging things, Li Yi did not stay long, but opened the cross-dimensional gate again.

"Seniors, follow me."

He stepped on auspicious clouds, lifted everyone across dimensions, and arrived on Earth.

Upon sensing the abundant spiritual energy of heaven and earth on Earth, all the cultivators had looks of excitement on their faces. They had waited their whole lives just for this opportunity.

Without hesitation.

Immediately, they began to inhale spiritual energy, attempting to recover their cultivation as quickly as possible.

Li Yi did not rush to take them back to the survival base, but waited for them to recover a portion of their cultivation before taking action.

And this would take about two or three days.

"This world is called Earth, chaotic and dangerous, and the spiritual energy has even suffered inexplicable pollution. Seniors, be more careful when inhaling, to avoid the spiritual energy polluting your bodies and affecting your Primordial Spirits."

He reminded them.

"Tai Yi is right. Although the spiritual energy here is abundant, it has indeed suffered pollution, and there is an evil power affecting the spiritual energy. However, this is easy to handle; as long as we don't inhale the polluted part, it will be fine."

People who have practiced the Dao for hundreds of years have indeed seen everything. Facing the problem of pollution, they were not afraid at all, even feeling that this was just a small problem.

Just like Cang Erzi, Xuan Yuezi, and others who crossed dimensions back then, they also easily dealt with the polluted spiritual energy.

Seeing that they were so confident, Li Yi did not say much more.

"Seniors, rest here for three days. Three days later, I have arrangements." He reminded them again.

Upon hearing this, everyone did not dare to be careless, immediately inhaling the spiritual energy of heaven and earth even more seriously to recover their cultivation.

Li Yi calculated.

Except for True Person Ziyu, the forty-nine cultivation experts from back then had now all crossed dimensions. Twenty of them were staying on the Red Gold Mountain in the Wild World, a few Immortal Maidens were in the Incense World, a few were in the Four Seas and Bazhou, and the others should all be on Earth.

When these people are gathered together one day, it will be an incomparably massive force.

He hoped that this force could, to a certain extent, alleviate the crisis on Earth. This could also be considered Li Yi contributing his part for this world.

However, if things really reached an unmanageable point one day, Li Yi might head to the Incense-Becoming-God world to live. After all, one must also prepare a way out.
