Chapter 1099: Chapter 1099

As the ancient oath echoed within the Red Gold Mountain, the tribal clan leaders and High Priests here made a vow of allegiance to the Red Mountain God, Da Yi, expressing their lifelong willingness to serve the Mountain God.

With this, Li Yi successfully took over an unimaginably vast force.

"Great Red Mountain God, I cannot express enough my gratitude to you. I can only offer the most beautiful women of our tribe to you, and hope the Mountain God will accept."

After the oath of allegiance ended, a High Priest from a tribe shouted, bringing forth the beauties from the tribe.

Following this, other tribes also offered their most beautiful women, hoping these beauties could stay atop the Red Gold Mountain and serve the deity.

Seeing the beauties in the great hall, E Ji and Su Ji beside Li Yi grew instantly nervous.

Although they were unwilling to see this happen, as One God, having just them as beauties was evidently insufficient. This could not bolster the Divine Blood Family nor sustain the Red Gold Country.

But Li Yi laughed: "Take the young maidens of your tribes back. They belong with the strong and brave warriors within your tribes. I will not take away others’ treasured things."

He declined the High Priests’ favor.

Though some High Priests felt somewhat disappointed, many strong warriors within the tribes became joyous.

The most beautiful maidens and the most powerful warriors are always a beautiful story in every tribe. No warrior wishes to see the tribe’s gem fall onto others.

They dared not defy the will of One God for the tribe, having sworn allegiance to the Red Gold Mountain God, yet their hearts held some unease.

Li Yi, being from Earth, understood the tragedies brought by love and conflict far too well. He did not wish for a day when a powerful warrior might emerge to challenge him, One God, for a maiden.

To accomplish others’ beauty is of course the best.

Tribal clan leaders and High Priests began to leave, taking with them the three rules of the Red Mountain God, returning to their tribes and spreading this significant news across the land.

Instantly, all tribes began rejoicing.

From today onwards, they would receive the protection of One God, and moreover, this Red Mountain God required no offerings, only the most powerful warriors of their tribes to pledge allegiance to One God.

Such a price was practically negligible.

After all, once the tribe was protected, the strong warriors within the tribe served little purpose. Following One God into battles might bring greater rewards to the tribe.

Yet High Priest Dou Kun had his hands full.

Since some tribal clan leaders came seeking help, now that Li Yi had promised to safeguard their security, naturally he needed to attend to some troubles for them, which they would convey to High Priest Dou Kun.

After which, High Priest Dou Kun would dispatch powerful warriors to handle these issues. If unresolved, only then would Li Yi need to personally intervene.

But High Priest Dou Kun was clever, assigning these challenges to the warriors loyal to the Red Gold Mountain, assembling the strength of all tribes to help govern the Red Gold Country, thereby sparing the deity any trouble.

Nonetheless, for safety, Li Yi chose to stay on the Red Gold Mountain for a while, verifying no issues before choosing to leave here for Earth. Read full story at novel{f}ire.net

Of course, before departing, he would also arrange for someone to manage here.

During his few days on Red Gold Mountain, Li Yi could feel the continual arrival of powerful warriors into Red Gold City; these warriors were of the Mountain Lord Level, the most powerful being a pair of brothers from the Heavenly Vein Tribe, whose strength had reached Thirty Mountain Lord Level.

"Greetings to the Red Mountain God." These two Thirty Mountain Lord Level warriors entered the great hall and respectfully bowed to Li Yi.

"Heavenly Vein Tribe, Lords of Thirty Mountains, Jiao Cang and Jiao Ao." Li Yi’s gaze casually swept, recalling some records sent by Shanguo.

Any warrior sent from the tribes would be registered, recording their names, strength, and tribe of origin.

Thirty Mountain Lord Level was equivalent to two Peak of Three Flowers Realm combined, very excellent indeed. If they learned Cultivation Technique and acquired Mana, they would surely be fierce generals.

Yet the Heavenly Vein Tribe is rather impoverished; even as Lords of Thirty Mountains, their Red Gold Battle Armor was worn and damaged, riddled with the scars of many battles.

"Your strength is decent. That the Heavenly Vein Tribe can send you shows the tribe’s loyalty. As your master, the Red Mountain God, I bestow upon you Red Gold Battle Armor and Red Gold Divine Sword."

Li Yi waved his hand, several strands of Red Gold Divine Light flew forth. The armor directly donned on them, streams of light revealed extraordinary defensive power, moreover, as Red Gold Dao Artifact, it could freely adjust its size according to the body, infusing Mana would enhance its defense significantly.

"Thank you for the Red Mountain God’s gift." The two warriors were thrilled, stroking their new armor and sharp treasure sword, feeling an outpouring of strong confidence.

With such weaponry, they surely could defeat mutant beasts or enemies stronger than themselves.

"Go, there are dedicated lodgings for you on Red Gold Mountain, someone will arrange accommodations for you." Li Yi said.

The two warriors left the great hall full of excitement and joy, later guided by servants to the warriors’ quarters, possessing independent residences and personal servants as Mountain Lords.

All thanks to Xiu Xiang, who had to purchase a large number of slaves for the construction of Red Gold Mountain.

Though slavery is not a good system, Li Yi wouldn’t defy this world’s traditions, having to adapt locally, ensuring normal life and safety for these slaves was all he could do.

Li Yi continued to receive many powerful warriors, occasionally with surprises, such as gaining the allegiance of a warrior named Xun Fei, a Fifty Mountain Lord Level existence.

His tribe was indeed a major tribe, yet still appeared weak compared to One God, thus he followed the rules and joined the Red Gold Country.

For these warriors, Li Yi planned to have Cultivation Experts coach them for a period before deploying them.

For they must at least learn some basic spells and cultivation.

Reliance solely on brute force in external battles was disadvantaged; even learning the Fist Skill of Four Seas and Eight Continents allowed these muscle-bound primitives’ strength to multiply explosively.

In less than ten days, Li Yi had gathered dozens of powerful warriors.

"If only a Lord of Hundred Mountains pledged allegiance to me, it would be ideal." He thought, simultaneously acknowledging the strength of the Lord of Hundred Mountains.

However, Lords of Hundred Mountains rarely pledged to One God, as they each have potential to become One God themselves.
