Chapter 1103: Chapter 1103
Everyone gathered, each discussing the events of the past few years. They lamented the unpredictability of life and also felt a deep resentment for their own lack of power. Once, they thought they were considered experts in Tianchang City.
But with the Sky Tipping incident and the opening of the Cross-border Gate, they realized how humble and insignificant they were. Official source ıs novel~fire~net
If not for a stroke of luck, they might not even have the chance to have this gathering today.
"Li Yi, your strength is so formidable that even Demon Kings aren’t worth mentioning to you. With the establishment of the Tao Court and a gathering of experts, do you have any major plans recently?" Zhao Lingfu asked at this moment. "I mean no offense, I’m just curious. I recently returned from the Golden Academy, and it seems there’s some major activity there. However, my strength isn’t enough to gather more information."
"Golden Academy? Wasn’t it destroyed?" Li Yi asked.
Lin Yue said, "It was rebuilt half a year ago, and I’ve gone back there too. Now, the Golden Academy has many strong individuals, many of whom I don’t even recognize."
Li Yi nodded slightly, "I have an idea this time. I plan to unite with some of the experts on Earth to seek revenge for past events."
"An inter-world battle?"
Zhao Lingfu was somewhat shocked, "Isn’t it a bit too soon? We only just finished defending the Earth last year."
"Isn’t it best to seek revenge as soon as possible? Besides, Earth will only be safe when its experts start attacking other worlds. Otherwise, after some time, invasions will start once again. Furthermore, the Sky Tipping incident hasn’t ended, and who knows if more formidable foes will appear in the future."
Li Yi said, "But you all don’t need to worry about this. I will negotiate with the upper echelons of Earth. Since the Golden Academy has been reestablished and many experts are gathering there, I think it’s necessary to visit and see if I can find some like-minded people."
"Li Yi, I’ll go to the Golden Academy with you," Lin Yue immediately said.
"Alright." Li Yi nodded, not refusing.
As the conversation continued, he also learned about some of the current situations on Earth. It could be said that everything was developing in a positive direction, but the crisis still existed.
This is why the Golden Academy needed to be rebuilt.
After all, training experts is an urgent matter. As long as Earth needs experts, the Golden Academy has a reason to exist.
However, the fact that Li Yi planned to wage cross-border warfare worried everyone. They were concerned both about the dangers Li Yi might face and about the potential repercussions of starting a war so soon.
But such major decisions weren’t for them to make, and they lacked the strength to join the fight.
Li Yi noticed their concerns and said, "You don’t need to worry about the cross-border warfare. If I take action, it means I’m confident. Let’s not discuss this now. This time, I’ve brought some gifts for you all."
He then took out the Red Gold Divine Sword and Red Gold Battle Armor from the Five Elements Bracelet.
"Although your current strength might not be enough to wield such Red Gold Dao Artifacts, I thought giving them to you early could help increase your strength a bit. Don’t be polite, everyone gets a set."
He generously distributed the Red Gold Dao Artifacts to everyone.
Everyone was stunned because the energy emanating from the Red Gold Dao Artifacts was astonishingly powerful. Just activating the power could turn them to ashes in an instant. Such weapons were indeed challenging for them to wield.
"Li Yi, you should take these Red Gold Dao Artifacts back. Such items are too difficult for us to utilize," Lin Yue immediately said. "Besides, aren’t you going to engage in cross-border battles? You need these more."
"I have plenty, these are just extras." Li Yi laughed.
In the Barbaric World, the Tian Gong Taoist managed three Divine Wood Red Gold Furnaces, producing Red Gold Dao Artifacts like wholesale. He just hadn’t gone to pick up more.
"..." Lin Yue was rendered speechless.
The others had no choice but to thick-skinnedly accept these two Red Gold Dao Artifacts. Though they knew their current strength was insufficient, having such divine weapons would certainly make them more daring in future endeavors.
The reason Li Yi was so generous was because these people had supported him in the past. While Red Gold Dao Artifacts might not mean much to him, to them, they were treasures worthy of passing down through generations.
And with fewer chances to meet in the future, Li Yi hoped that these Red Gold Dao Artifacts could help them fight for a better future. That way, their acquaintanceship wouldn’t have been in vain.
They chatted for several hours before everyone dispersed.
Afterward, Li Yi went to the Tao Court outside Tianchang City.
"Taiyi." Yun Feizi greeted Li Yi respectfully as he arrived.
Li Yi asked, "Is everything at the Tao Court all right recently?"
"Everything is fine," Yun Feizi said. "Everyone is focused on gathering disciples and cultivating in peace."
"That’s good. But this time, I plan to engage in cross-border combat. Please gather everyone and see if anyone is willing to join me. If they aren’t willing, that’s fine, I won’t force it."
Yun Feizi paused, "Cross-border combat? Which world does Taiyi intend to confront first?"
"The Demon God Realm is close to Tianchang City. I plan to take on the Demon God Realm first. After securing it, the cultivation experts will have a great place to expand their sects. Isn’t that right?" Li Yi said.
"If Taiyi has such intentions, I will certainly do my best. I’m sure the fellow Daoists will agree," Yun Feizi said earnestly.
Conquering the Demon God Realm could pave the way for a new Cultivation World.
I believe many cultivation experts would be eager to strive for a better future.
"If they agree, prepare everyone in advance. I still need to visit the Golden Academy to see if the experts there are willing to join me. After all, when invading a realm, the more people, the better." Li Yi said.
"When the time comes, I’ll let you know. That’s all for now," Li Yi said, then left.
But as he was planning to return to the building, he noticed an area along the river in Tianchang City that was equally radiant, with Spiritual Energy soaring to the skies, shrouded in clouds, appearing as a residence of a Divine Statue.
"That place is..." Li Yi thought for a moment, then quickly recalled.
That was Yang Wei’s place, or rather, Yang Wei’s Dao Field. It was unclear why Yang Wei insisted on establishing his Dao Field there, or whether he was following some orders or instructions.
But since Yang Wei was busy saving the world and often absent, Li Yi had no intention of visiting, especially since it involved World No. 36, which was a complex and special situation.
After staying in Tianchang City for a few days and dealing with some trivial matters, five days later, he and Lin Yue set off in an Immortal Dao Battleship for the Golden Academy.
The new Golden Academy was still on its original site but constructed even more magnificently, with many floating buildings in the sky that belonged to the students of the Golden Academy as their personal Magic Treasures.
Furthermore, a Grand Array was established around the Golden Academy, reflecting the skills of cultivators and Daoists, likely with contributions from Tu Daoist.
"Indeed, there are many powerful auras."
Even inside the Immortal Dao Battleship, Li Yi could sense the presence of powerful individuals, likely not from Earth, but cross-border experts.
However, compared to his own strength, they were still lacking.
The title of One God in the Barbaric World carries weight, capable of reigning supreme in any world.
"Identity confirmed, student Li Yi, Lin Yue, welcome back to the Golden Academy."
After being verified by AI, Li Yi’s Immortal Dao Battleship successfully passed through the Grand Array and entered the borders of the Golden Academy.
The situation inside was different from what was observed outside. It was like a hidden Grotto Heaven, akin to being in another small world, filled with abundant Cosmic Energy, isolated from the world’s pollution.
"Using a small world to rebuild the Golden Academy. The higher-ups have invested heavily," Li Yi narrowed his eyes slightly.
It seems not only he has had fortunate encounters, but the upper echelons are quite impressive too, given they’ve mastered so many cross-border coordinates. All that’s needed is time to develop them.
The only thing Earth lacks is time.
Even a year of peace could bring about earth-shattering changes.
Li Yi and Lin Yue arrived at the Golden Academy on the Immortal Dao Battleship. Li Yi took a deep breath, allowing the abundant Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth to envelop him. When he exhaled, a terrifying sound of wind and thunder roared through the sky.
Standing nearby, Lin Yue was speechless.
With such a terrifying wind and thunder sound accompanying his breath, just how powerful had Li Yi become now?
