Chapter 784
The peak of Dao Mountain.
Inside the Tianyi Hall.
Li Yi's Primordial Spirit Dharma Image sat on the lotus platform, with incense filling the sky all around. His whole body bloomed with precious light, five energies entwined, and with every breath, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth rolled in.
During this period of time, he hadn't been idle. After entrusting the matter of recovering his mother's body to the several immortal maidens, he continued to cultivate.
Having accumulated such a massive amount of incense power, if he didn't make use of it, wouldn't it be a waste of heaven's gifts?
With the help of incense power, Li Yi attempted to open more acupoints in the human body.
Besides that, he left the vast majority of the incense power on the Red Lotus and did not let his Primordial Spirit absorb it, because once he left this world, the incense power would dissipate and could not last long. Rather than that, it was better to use the incense to nourish external objects.
The supreme treasure Red Lotus was the best choice.
Just like his father, the Shenwu Emperor, using incense to nourish a jade seal, it had now become psychic and would definitely be a very powerful magic treasure in the future.
And the supreme treasure Red Lotus had also undergone various incredible changes after absorbing the massive amount of incense power.
The red precious light bloomed continuously, nourishing the Primordial Spirit Dharma Image, allowing Li Yi's Primordial Spirit Dharma Image to have a significant improvement in a short period of time. Besides that, under the blessing of incense, the Red Lotus seemed to start becoming psychic, gradually gaining spirituality.
However, this was not the problem Li Yi was concerned about at the moment.
What he cared about was whether his mother could be successfully resurrected and get rid of the identity of a black cat.
Fortunately, Li Yi's problem soon had a result.
This day.
On Dao Mountain, a surging life energy spread out, causing all things on the mountain to revive in an instant. For a time, ancient trees stretched their branches and leaves, various flowers bloomed on the cliffs, and amidst the drifting clouds and mist, a rain of life fell.
This blessing shrouded the three-hundred-mile capital, and everyone who bathed in this rain was free from all diseases and felt light and healthy.
Facing such a miracle, the people of the capital all bowed to Dao Mountain, and a large amount of incense power surged toward the top of the mountain continuously.
And at the same time.
"Success, the body is reshaped, and the Primordial Spirit has returned to its place."
With the help of several immortal maidens such as Xuanyuezi, Xiang Xiangzi, and Yun Feizi Yun, on this day, the body reshaping was completed, and with a soul entering the new body, Zheng Xiuyu was completely resurrected.
Everything went very smoothly, without any suspense.
About a moment later.
A young woman walked out from the depths of the auspicious clouds. Her whole body was permeated with incense power, and every gesture emitted a large amount of cosmic energy, bursting with a powerful force.
Because the new body contained the Blood of Gods, it had infinite potential, almost equivalent to a direct descendant warrior of divine blood. If she cultivated, her future would definitely be boundless.
"Good, very good."
At this moment, the Shenwu Emperor Li Jiye had been waiting at the top of the mountain for many days. Seeing his wife reborn today, he felt an indescribable joy in his heart.
Previously, the soul body was incomplete and could only become a god in the incense world, with limited future achievements, but now it was different. In the future, the two of them could advance hand in hand and seek longevity together, just like before.
"I didn't expect that I would actually be resurrected. Is reshaping the body such an easy thing now?" Zheng Xiuyu was very surprised at this moment. She looked around again, took a deep breath, and felt the beauty between heaven and earth.
Everything felt like a dream.
And seeing this scene, Li Jiye felt guilty while being happy.
Only he understood how difficult it was to resurrect someone who had already passed away, but Li Yi had managed to do it. One could imagine how much effort and sacrifice had to be paid during this period.
And after Zheng Xiuyu was resurrected, the several immortal maidens did not stay idle and continued to reshape the body for Master Yulian.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered again.
Xiang Xiangzi and Xuanyuezi took out another portion of the Blood of Gods and the Water of Life, and began to condense the second body again.
Seeing the several immortal maidens busy, the Shenwu Emperor Li Jiye did not stay long on Dao Mountain, but took his wife Zheng Xiuyu and left, returning to the Imperial Palace.
Another period of time passed.
At the peak of Dao Mountain, Buddha light shone for the first time, and Sanskrit sounds arose everywhere.
Master Yulian regained her body and returned again. The spiritual energy from all directions gathered, condensing into a huge Bodhisattva Dharma Image, solemn and majestic, with visions appearing frequently.
Unlike Li Yi's mother, her Primordial Spirit was already very powerful, and the body she regained now had more potential than her original body. If she cultivated hard for some time, her strength could go a step further and become stronger.
After Li Yi determined that his mother Zheng Xiuyu was completely resurrected, he stopped cultivating and quickly left Dao Mountain for the Imperial Palace, preparing for the family to be reunited.
And after Li Yi returned to the capital, he heard a piece of news: the Shenwu Emperor was ordaining a new Empress, and the whole world was celebrating.
Such a major event—if it were before, Li Jiye definitely wouldn't have dared to decide it immediately, but now it was different. The world was settled, he had unified the dynasty, held the Golden-Eyed Guards and the Embroidered Uniform Guards in his hands, plus had the help of the immortal maidens on Dao Mountain. He could be said to be the most powerful emperor in history, bar none.
Even the founding emperor had to be subject to the incense gods of all parties in the world, but Li Jiye had broken the mountains and destroyed the temples, almost killing all the minor gods in the world. Now, except for the Shenwu Dynasty and the newly ordained righteous gods, there were no incense gods outside the imperial court at all. Under these circumstances, Li Jiye could almost do whatever he wanted.
However, Li Yi also understood why his father Li Jiye wanted to ordain his mother immediately; this was to let his mother quickly enjoy the incense of the masses, so that she could use the incense power to cultivate and make up for her congenital deficiencies.
With the family reunited, all the past events surfaced before their eyes.
It was just that everyone was a cultivator, and plus Li Yi was no longer the young man in his early twenties from before; he had grown up and experienced a lot, so the family was happy and harmonious, without too much lingering affection.
"Xiao Yi, what are your plans next?" Li Jiye asked at this moment.
Li Yi said earnestly: "Return to Earth, expel the foreign enemies. Although staying in this world to enjoy blessings is a good thing, one cannot forget their roots, so I plan to go back and contribute."
"Very good, defending the country is a good thing, I support it. But my Golden-Eyed Guards and Embroidered Uniform Guards haven't been trained yet, the time is too short. If possible, I suggest waiting a bit longer," Li Jiye said; "After all, your Mom has also just been resurrected and needs some time to cultivate."
He wanted to be more secure at this moment and continue to develop for a few more years.
The incense method combined with the evolution method, or the immortal cultivation method, could allow one's strength to advance by leaps and bounds. The longer the time, the more experts could be brought out at that time.
If Li Jiye were given twenty years, he could pull out an army of cultivators, and their strength would not be inferior to Great Demons.
After all, the potential of this world was still very great.
With the expansion of territory and the increase in population, the incense would become more and more prosperous. In time, the combat power in his hands would rival a great world. What were the Demon God World and the Profound Immortal Continent? They could be destroyed with a wave of his hand.
Li Yi shook his head and said: "Earth can't wait that long. Experts from many worlds have already entered the field. And Dad, you don't need to worry. I have already made some plans. I brought back nearly fifty experts from the Age of Dharma Decline cultivation world. Now their strength has almost recovered. I plan to gather this group of people and go to the Earth defense line to take a look first."
"Xiao Yi, you are too reckless. Dozens of experts getting involved in a cross-dimensional war—if there is any carelessness, I fear..." Zheng Xiuyu on the side frowned.
"If I join forces with several immortal maidens, I can kill a Demon King. On Earth, I am almost an invincible existence, so there won't be any danger," Li Yi said: "Mom, you don't need to worry. If there is really a major event, I won't fight to the death, I'll just open the cross-dimensional gate and run back to the incense world."
Without any worries, his actions would naturally be bold and aggressive.
Although waiting for his father Li Jiye to train the experts well before crossing back would be more secure, Li Yi understood that what truly determined the outcome of a war was never the number of people, but the top experts.
However, it couldn't be said that a large number of experts were useless. Earth was so big, and many people were still needed to guard it.
But if they had to wait for the experts in the incense world to achieve success in cultivation, Li Yi felt that everything would be too late.
Those enemies wouldn't wait that long.
Li Jiye, as the Shenwu Emperor, pondered for a moment and said: "Xiao Yi, let's do as you say first. I will also make preparations for crossing over here. You leave a few cross-dimensional machines behind, and I will use my power to search for the strange objects of this world. If it really doesn't work, I will gather the power of cultivators to open the cross-dimensional gate."
"Alright, I'll leave five cross-dimensional machines behind," Li Yi nodded: "These machines all record the coordinates of the worlds I have experienced. Except for World No. 36, which cannot be gone to, all other worlds can be gone to."
"Your Mom and I were stuck in World No. 36; we wouldn't dare go to that ghostly place." Mentioning that strange world, Li Jiye couldn't help but shiver.
It was better for the ghosts of this world to be cuter, only knowing how to bewitch scholars, sleep in the same bed with people, and steal people's essence.
The family continued to discuss future matters.
Except for some details, the general policy was decided.
After Li Yi stayed in the Imperial Palace for a period of time, he decided to take action.
He returned to Dao Mountain again and summoned the several immortal maidens.
"Are we going to cross over to fight? I'm good at this. I'll accompany you this time." Xiang Xiangzi was very active at this moment; she had been somewhat bored cultivating in this world and hoped to cross over and leave to find some fun.
"Dao Mountain cannot be left without someone to maintain it. This time, Xiang Xiangzi, I, Yun Feizi Yun, and Senior Sister Miaohuizi—the four of us will follow Taiyi to cross over. The other two junior sisters are still recuperating, so let them stay in this world," Xuanyuezi said seriously.
The other two immortal maidens were Lingyinzi and Wumengzi. Although they were resurrected with the help of incense and reshaped their bodies, because they hadn't been resurrected for long, their strength was very weak. Once they crossed over and lost the supply of incense, their strength would be greatly reduced and they would be of no use to the situation, so they had been in closed-door cultivation, and Li Yi hadn't met them.
"What about Feiyunzi? His strength has recovered now, and he has been ordained as the Dao Mountain God, but his body has not yet recovered," Xuanyuezi said.
Li Yi remembered that he had sent the seriously injured Feiyunzi to this world last time to repair his Primordial Spirit with the help of incense power.
Xiang Xiangzi curled her lips and said: "Forget it, his strength is just like that, and reshaping the body is a very troublesome thing. Let him stay here and be a Mountain God."
Hearing this, Li Yi said: "We won't take Feiyunzi this time. But after the other two Daoist nuns recover, please help Feiyunzi recover his body. After all, he was injured to help me, so we can't ignore him."
However, Xiang Xiangzi was not wrong; Feiyunzi's strength was indeed not very strong. Born as a loose cultivator and having gone through the Age of Dharma Decline, his Dao flowers had bloomed, but he couldn't even beat a Great Demon. Staying in this world to accumulate strength was a good thing for him.
Let these several immortal maidens do the fighting and killing.
"Alright, I will go and instruct Junior Sisters Lingyinzi and Wumengzi, and leave behind a few portions of the Blood of Gods and the Water of Life," Xuanyuezi nodded, then immediately turned and flew toward a great hall.
Li Yi also took out the cross-dimensional machine at this moment and said: "Let's go to the primitive world first. We need to go there to get weapons. So much time has passed, I believe Master Tiangong won't let me down."
"Master Tiangong? The senior brother of that bald guy? I'd like to see how powerful the Red Gold Dao treasures he refined are." Xiang Xiangzi's eyes lit up, and she became somewhat impatient.
With Dao treasures, their strength could be better displayed.
