Chapter 899

Half a month has passed in a flash since the war between Earth and the Demon God Realm ended.

During this period, the experts of Earth were all healing and recuperating, preparing for the next war, and in these ten-plus days, the Eastern Pole Heavenly Venerable was not idle either.

He used the great power of an Enlightened One to forcibly pull together the shattered continent and recreate a piece of heaven and earth, but this land was only one-tenth of the original.

The rest all turned into various islands, scattered across the sea.

Although the transformation was not particularly perfect, at least it was now habitable. You must know that before, the power of the Demon God raged, the resentment of the Demon Kings soared to the sky, magma erupted from the depths of the earth, and in the sky, wild winds blew constantly and thunder raged; it was simply a scene of the end of the world.

If the Eastern Pole Heavenly Venerable had not transformed it, this place would simply have been unusable.

However, today.

In the sky, a meteor streaked across the firmament and fell toward this newly gathered land.

Such a strange phenomenon soon attracted the attention of many people, but soon, everyone relaxed their vigilance because they saw an Immortal Dao warship pulling a huge meteorite flying from the direction of space.

Needless to say, this must be Li Yi doing something.

Soon.

Accompanied by the support of a huge auspicious cloud, this meteorite landed safely on the ground.

Many cultivators gathered around curiously at this moment.

"Heavenly Venerable Taiyi, why did you go to such trouble to pull over an extraterrestrial meteorite? Items like this are countless in the lands beyond the sky..." Daoist Xuan Zhen just started to ask, but then realized something was wrong.

"Wait, this doesn't seem to be an ordinary meteorite; it actually has the aura of a Demon God on it."

"This is the Demon God's nest, tempered by the Sun's True Fire for thousands of times; it is already a treasure. Moreover, it contains its own space and possesses many rare items. Although I am not very good at judging goods, I know this item is unusual, so I brought it for you all to appraise." Li Yi said.

"Heavenly Venerable Taiyi is too modest." Daoist Xuan Zhen said: "We cultivators just live a few more years; we don't necessarily know everything about the external things of heaven and earth."

Li Yi threw out a piece of the meteorite at this moment: "This is a corner cut from the top; do you all recognize it?"

This piece of meteorite was pitted on one side, and the other side had been scorching and crystal clear; now that it had cooled down, it presented the color of black gold, was extremely hard, and shone with divine light.

"This item seems to be related to the Jin Wu Demon God..." Daoist Xuan Zhen frowned, examining this piece of meteorite.

"It looks a bit like the legendary Marquis Wu Jin Divine Iron, which can be refined into a Dao artifact, and it can also gather the Sun's True Fire; its power is infinite." At this time, another Great Perfection cultivator commented.

"It is indeed Marquis Wu Jin Divine Iron; I have seen it in ancient classics, but this piece is as huge as a mountain; this is my first time seeing it, so I didn't dare to confirm it."

Hearing their comments, Li Yi had a rough idea in his mind, and he said: "You all take a portion for your own use, and then help me dismantle this item; there seem to be some peculiar things inside."

"This is a small matter; Heavenly Venerable Taiyi, rest assured, just leave it to this poor Daoist." Daoist Xuan Zhen's eyes lit up, and he became excited immediately.

With such a large meteorite, taking a portion of the Marquis Wu Jin Divine Iron was enough to refine his own Dao artifact in the future.

Other Great Perfection cultivators were also delighted.

"If Heavenly Venerable Eastern Pole needs it, letting him take a portion for himself is also fine." Li Yi then added.

He brought this item back with the intention of rewarding and honoring everyone; after all, others had just fought desperately for him, so he had to give some rewards.

Moreover, this meteorite was very large; even if they took a portion, the remainder was enough for his own use.

After giving these instructions, Li Yi flew straight toward the direction of Earth's command ship in the distance.

Just a moment ago, he had received an invitation from Earth's high-level officials, saying they had something to discuss with him; otherwise, he would still be staying in outer space and wouldn't have returned so quickly.

Before long.

Li Yi arrived at the command ship.

His journey was smooth and unimpeded; the AI's identity system had already identified him, and with his authority and status, he could enter and exit any place currently located on Earth.

Soon.

Li Yi walked into a conference room.

There were quite a few people here; besides him, there were several Martial Sages from the Martial Sage Continent, and Xiang Xiangzi and Xuan Yuezi had also come, and even his own father, Li Jiye, had crossed the boundary again to arrive.

The Eastern Pole Heavenly Venerable did not participate in the meeting; he had been exhausted for ten-plus days and was now hiding somewhere to recuperate.

"Tell me, what important matter requires me to be specially summoned for discussion?" Li Yi walked over, and his seat was assigned to the main position at this moment.

This showed that his current status and influence were extremely heavy.

If Li Yi did not appear, there would be no need for this important meeting to continue.

"Li Yi, you've come just in time. Regarding the content of this meeting, I'll keep it brief. Just a few days ago, a Nine Wind Tianyue Yao Wang came to our side to make contact; he wants to represent the Demon God Realm and negotiate peace with us."

Zhao Yongshan said immediately: "The remaining Demon Kings and Great Demons of the Demon God Realm expressed their willingness to hand over the Demon God Realm, but in return, they want to secure a continent for survival, and guarantee that from now on, the two realms will not commit the slightest offense against each other, and even if Earth fights a war in the future, they can act as allies to help Earth participate in the war." Li Yi did not answer, but only asked: "If we don't agree, what do they intend to do?"

"The remaining Demon Kings will join forces to destroy the Demon God Realm, a fight to the death." Xiao Jianguo, who was on the side, said: "It is precisely because of this that we convened the meeting to discuss."

"Although Earth has suffered an invasion from the Demon God Realm, after a great battle, the other side has already paid a bloody price. If we insist on exterminating them, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive; after all, if the Demon Kings join forces, it is truly possible for them to destroy the Demon God Realm."

After listening, Li Yi looked at the other high-level officials.

A high-level official immediately added: "Li Yi, Earth currently has many enemies; having one more ally is a good thing. Using the power of the Demon Kings to check and balance the powerhouses of other worlds is a win-win situation. And we have calculated that if we only give up one continent, it won't have much impact on us."

"Moreover, the remaining Demon Kings and Great Demons can also be slowly eroded and divided."

Li Yi said: "Can the words of Demon Kings be trusted? They are demons for a day, demons for a lifetime. And if we give them time, what if another Demon God appears? Or what if the Jin Wu Demon God kills his way back one day? That would be another rebellion."

"I don't want to come back to suppress a rebellion later; gathering so many experts this time was not an easy task."

"This is also within our consideration. For this reason, Li Yue proposed a suggestion." Zhao Yongshan said.

Li Yue is the name of Xuan Yuezi on Earth.

"What suggestion?" Li Yi asked.

Xuan Yuezi said: "The Curse of Self-Sacrifice."

"If the Demon Kings are willing to plant the Curse of Self-Sacrifice, I think we can agree to their request."

Listening to Xuan Yuezi's words, Li Yi also roughly understood everyone's thoughts. The war had reached this point and they had already won; if they insisted on exterminating the remaining demon creatures of the Demon God Realm, they were worried it would be counterproductive.

But thinking this way was not wrong either.

Stop while you're ahead, so as not to really have some slip-ups in the end and end up with more losses than gains.

"If the Demon Kings are willing to plant the Curse of Self-Sacrifice, we can leave them a way to live. However, this condition is very harsh, and the Demon Kings might not necessarily agree; I estimate there will still be tug-of-war and negotiations. My bottom line is that at least half or more of the Demon Kings must be restricted by the Curse of Self-Sacrifice; if not, then let's fight another battle." Li Yi said.

Hearing this, Zhao Yongshan said: "We also think this way on this point. As for how to implement it specifically, it still needs subsequent discussion, but the general direction will not change."

Li Yi nodded: "Then let them surrender. I believe you all can handle the subsequent matters well and there won't be any slip-ups."

"Good, since you agree, Li Yi, we will continue to negotiate with that Nine Wind Tianyue Yao Wang and strive to have a result within these few days." Zhao Yongshan said.

Li Yi did not say anything more. Regarding the subsequent matters, he believed that Earth's high-level officials would handle them even better than he imagined. What he had to do was to sit in command here for a while longer and wait for the smooth conclusion of the matter.

However, at the end of the meeting, he mentioned: "If we are to plant the Curse of Self-Sacrifice, I suggest that Xiang Xiangzi be responsible for this matter."

"This is no problem." Earth's high-level officials agreed immediately.

"That's good. You all chat about the rest; contact me if there's anything important. I need to go recuperate for a while. Everyone has indeed paid a not-so-small price in this battle; fighting further is indeed not worth it." Li Yi stood up: "However, although the Demon God Realm has been taken down, everyone should not relax; there are still many enemies waiting for us to deal with."

After speaking, he did not stay in the command ship but turned and left.

However, facing Li Yi's style of coming and going as he pleased, everyone did not say anything; after all, Li Yi had the qualifications to be so willful.

And as Li Yi left, Li Jiye, Xuan Yuezi, Xiang Xiangzi, and others also left quickly, and this meeting ended rapidly.

Earth's high-level officials were not idle either; they immediately began internal discussions and at the same time prepared to negotiate with the Nine Wind Tianyue Yao Wang, striving to completely end this great war.

Of course, the process and such were not important, but the final result would definitely end with the retreat and compromise of the Demon Kings, because they had no choice.

Unless they still had Demon God-level combat power.

Therefore, the surviving Demon Kings could be said to hate the Jin Wu Demon God to the bone for his escape.

If the Jin Wu Demon God had not fled, even if they negotiated, the Demon God Realm would have had the confidence and capital not to suffer humiliation and be forced to plant the Curse of Self-Sacrifice to be driven by others.

The only thing the Demon Kings could accept was that the object of planting the Curse of Self-Sacrifice was Xiang Xiangzi.

And Xiang Xiangzi was not an Earthling, and her strength also exceeded that of the Demon Kings; if they were controlled by an Earthling whose strength was inferior to the Demon Kings, that would be something they truly could not accept.

"Marquis Wu Jin Divine Iron, good stuff. This thing can be used to forge a new Imperial Jade Seal." At this moment, Li Jiye also arrived beside that huge meteorite, and seeing such a divine object, he was also moved.

He asked Li Yi for a large piece in case of need.

Although through everyone's division, the Jin Wu Demon God's lair soon disappeared from everyone's sight, most of the remainder was still taken away by Li Yi.

"To forge a new jade seal, one must take a trip to the Savage World. Master Tiangong holds three Divine Wood Red Gold Furnaces; only he can forge top-tier divine weapons."

Li Yi told his father to calm down and not rush into action. Moreover, he hadn't mentioned the matter of the star core yet. Besides this, the remains of the Purple Dragon Demon God were also a huge treasure trove.

Taking down the Demon God Realm this time yielded many benefits, and it would take some time to digest them.
