CHAPTER 958: CHAPTER 727: ALL CROSS THE BOUNDARIES

Li Yi hadn’t gone far from No.8 Survival Base, about a hundred kilometers out, when he found a relatively safe place and stopped.

After confirming there was nothing unusual around, he took out the cross-border machine, placed three intact Miracles as energy sources, and determined the cross-border coordinates.

With a dazzling beam of energy shooting out, the space before him instantly warped, forming a space gate, behind which a world gradually appeared after adjustments.

It was a valley filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers, quiet and peaceful, the only drawback being the absence of nature’s spiritual energy; otherwise, it would be an ideal living place.

Li Yi wasted no time, swiftly passing through the cross-border gate and returning to the End of Dharma Cultivation World.

As the cross-border gate opened, Spiritual Energy began to dissipate within the valley.

Sensing the emergence of this Spiritual Energy, the cultivators inside the valley all became aware.

"The cross-border gate has opened again, it’s Taiyi, he has returned."

"Quickly gather in front of the hall; our cross-border opportunity has come this time."

"Haha, finally, the cross-border gate has opened."

In an instant, these cultivators became extremely excited. Their steps were agile, and they reached Taiyi Hall at the mountain top in moments.

Clearly, their Martial Arts cultivation had achieved some success, although they couldn’t fly or escape as before, crossing mountains and valleys posed no issue.

When these cultivators arrived, they saw Li Yi had been waiting there early.

Compared to a few months ago, Li Yi’s aura now was even more astonishing; his mere presence was suffocating, and the Dragon and Tiger Power was more formidable than before.

Nearly unrivaled by Three Flowers experts.

The arriving cultivators were momentarily solemn in their hearts and extraordinarily shocked.

They remembered when they followed Li Yi here, he had just entered the Five Qi Realm, but now he equaled Three Flowers Peak experts, an unprecedented speed of cultivation.

Even if their power returned to its peak, they couldn’t rival Li Yi now.

"Greetings, Taiyi."

Without the slightest negligence, any cultivators arriving here respectfully saluted Li Yi first.

"Senior cultivators, let’s skip the formalities. I opened the cross-border gate this time to seek the help of all the seniors present," Li Yi spoke directly: "Those willing to assist me, please cross with me; if not, I won’t force you."

His words were blunt, but the arriving cultivators showed no displeasure.

Cultivating for hundreds of years to reach their current strength, they weren’t toddlers; naturally, they knew there’s no free lunch in the world. Taiyi took the End of Dharma people across the border to capitalize on their restored strength.

If you refuse to serve, why would anyone kindly send you away from this realm to re-cultivate the Dao?

Thus, they had prepared for this when they followed Li Yi to the Treasure Court.

"Taiyi, I am willing to serve Taiyi, just say the word."

"Indeed, I am also willing to serve Taiyi."

"As long as I can return to the peak, serving you, even giving away my old life, is nothing."

The cultivators voiced in succession.

"Good, then prepare yourselves, seniors. I will open the cross-border gate and leave this realm together in fifteen minutes," Li Yi nodded and said.

At this time, a Daoist named Master Zi Yu walked over and said: "Taiyi, there are quite a few cultivators in the Treasure Court who are willing to join to this place. If gradually accepted, many cultivation experts can be gathered, and besides the Treasure Court, other places also have struggling cultivators, Taiyi needs people; why not make use of them."

"If everyone crosses the border and leaves, once unattended, over time, many will return to dust, and earth to earth."

"Makes sense." Li Yi’s expression changed upon hearing this.

Clearly, Master Zi Yu wanted to sweep through the End of Dharma Cultivation World before departure, to take all the cultivation experts who could be taken, for sitting here and decaying would be a pity.

Though the End of Dharma Cultivation World was already waning.

But it was still a grand realm; sweeping through might yield surprises.

What are forty-nine Tri-Floral Realms?

If Master Zi Yu’s plan succeeded, Li Yi might gather hundreds, thousands of Tri-Floral Realm experts, plus the Red Gold Dao Artifact being refined at Red Gold Mountain in the Barbaric World.

This would undoubtedly be an army.

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

Master Zi Yu immediately replied: "Taiyi, let me handle this. I have the Thunderbolt Fighter, I can cover thousands of miles in an instant, accomplishing this effortlessly."

He volunteered to stay and complete this task for Li Yi.

Others also wanted to take this task, as it was a great merit, Taiyi would not treat them unfairly in the future, but thinking they would soon cross the border, they hesitated.

The future is unpredictable; crossing the border and restoring cultivation first is ultimately beneficial.

Li Yi saw Master Zi Yu volunteering and nodded, saying, "Alright, then I will trouble the True Man with this matter. Next time I open the cross-border gate, I will definitely bring everyone away from this world."

"However, this task is arduous. I have nothing to give to the True Man, so I’ll gift this Red Gold Divine Sword for self-defense."

Afterward, he took out a Red Gold Divine Sword from the Red Gold Five Elements Bracelet and gave it to Master Zi Yu.

Other cultivators, upon seeing the Red Gold Divine Sword, were immediately wide-eyed.

"Is this the Inheritance Dao Artifact refined by the Daoqi Sect?"

"It is the Artifact Refining Technique of the Daoqi Sect’s Tian Gong Taoist, but it’s not merely an Inheritance Dao Artifact. That Red Gold is extraordinarily mysterious, even surpassing Inheritance Dao Artifacts."

"Gasp, an Inheritance Divine Sword in peak condition, unaffected by the End of Dharma."

Seeing the Red Gold Divine Sword, no cultivator of the Tri-Floral Realm could remain unmoved.

After all, during the End of Dharma Period, even a peak low-grade Dao Artifact was unheard of, let alone a weapon surpassing the level of an Inheritance Dao Artifact. Its overwhelming divine power leaves no doubt that a single swing could cleave mountains and split rivers.

In this era, holding this sword is enough to destroy heaven and earth.

Others were envious beyond measure.

They wished they too could stay and work, since just staying an extra year or so could earn them a Red Gold Divine Sword.

"Thank you, Taiyi, for the sword gift." The usually steady Master Zi Yu showed a look of joy at this moment. He was not one for courtesy; after receiving the Red Gold Divine Sword, he respectfully bowed to Li Yi.

Moreover, his words were skillful, not saying Li Yi gave the sword, but rather gifted it.

This indicates that Li Yi is his superior, as only a superior can use the word "gift."

Li Yi nodded slightly: "In the End of Dharma era, cultivators have mostly declined; their life span is limited. When I return next time, it will be at least a year and a half. Therefore, I will give you some Life Water and Life Extending Pills. You can use these items to extend their life until my arrival."

He then took out a large bottle of Life Water and Life Extending Pills obtained from the Four Seas and Eight Continents.

These items are priceless treasures in this world.

However, Li Yi’s strength has grown, and these items are not particularly useful to him, so he directly gave away a batch to help Master Zi Yu better recruit strong cultivators.

"With these two items, the major task is accomplished," Master Zi Yu confidently said.

Some cultivation experts might be reluctant to leave their homeland, wanting to pass away within their sect; however, he believes that when he presents the Life Extending Pills and Life Water, those experts will undoubtedly follow him here without hesitation.

But he would rather have quality over quantity.

Master Zi Yu plans to recruit mainly cultivators of the Tri-Floral and Two Flower Realms because he senses that Li Yi’s side needs a batch of very powerful cultivators, and those with weaker strength likely won’t be of much help.

After arranging everything, Li Yi did not linger further and once again opened the cross-border gate.

"Everyone, follow me," he said.

He stepped on the Xiangyun, carrying everyone across dimensions to Earth.

Upon sensing the abundant nature’s spiritual energy on Earth, all the cultivators were filled with excitement. They had been waiting their whole lives for this opportunity.

Without hesitation.

They immediately began to absorb spiritual energy, attempting to restore their cultivation at the fastest speed possible.

Li Yi did not hasten to take them back to the survival base but waited for them to restore part of their cultivation before acting.

This would take around two to three days.

"This world is called Earth; it is chaotic and dangerous. The spiritual energy here has suffered inexplicable pollution. Everyone should be extra cautious when absorbing it, to avoid body pollution and impacting your primordial spirit."

He reminded them.

"Taiyi is right, while the spiritual energy here is abundant, it has indeed been polluted. A sinister force affects the spiritual energy, but this is manageable. Just avoid the polluted parts when absorbing it."

Those who have cultivated for hundreds of years have seen it all. Facing pollution issues, they are not afraid and even consider it a minor problem.

Much like Cang Erzi and Xuan Yuezi when they first crossed dimensions, they easily dealt with the polluted spiritual energy.

Seeing their confidence, Li Yi said no more.

"Rest here for three days, after which I have arrangements," he reminded again.

Upon hearing this, the people dared not be careless and earnestly absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to restore their cultivation.

Li Yi calculated.

Besides Master Zi Yu, all of the original forty-nine cultivation experts had now crossed dimensions. Twenty people were waiting at the Red Gold Mountain in the Barbaric World, several Immortals in the Incense World, a few in the Four Seas and Eight Continents, and the others should all be on Earth.

If one day these people gather, they will form an incomparably vast force.

Hopefully, this force can somewhat alleviate the crisis on Earth. This is also a way for Li Yi to contribute to this world.

However, if things really reach an untenable point, Li Yi might go to live in the world where one can become an Incense Fire God, as a last resort must be prepared for.
