Chapter 1111: Chapter 1111

Li Yi’s idea was quite simple: take this opportunity to subdue these thirty-three Great Perfection Cultivation Experts. This way, he could fill the shortage of top experts on Earth, and when the time came to initiate a cross-dimensional battle, he would have more confidence.

However, he didn’t trust these people, unless they were willing to plant the Sacrifice Spell. Otherwise, he would rather let them sit and meditate in this world than take them across dimensions.

He was not looking to gain a bunch of enemies for no reason.

The requirements of the Sacrifice Spell were indeed very strict, almost equivalent to handing one’s life to Li Yi, with no room for resistance. Although Li Yi promised them freedom and that he would eventually remove the Sacrifice Spell, who could say if this was true or false?

The cultivation experts were contemplating and hesitating, also observing each other.

Everyone was indecisive.

"The Sacrifice Spell, is it? I, the poor Dao, will give it to you. As long as you can take me across dimensions, this requirement is nothing,"

However, after a brief silence, suddenly, a Great Perfection Realm Cultivation Expert flew over from the Outer Heaven and simultaneously cast a ray of light.

This light was precisely the Sacrifice Spell.

Li Yi reached out to catch it, and an obscure rune appeared on his hand.

"Xuanzhenzi, why are you so impulsive?" the other Daoists exclaimed in surprise.

Xuanzhenzi did not answer, merely looked at Li Yi, "Can this poor Dao now follow the Heavenly Venerate across dimensions?"

Li Yi said, "You can, but I need to check if you’re carrying any Storage Taoist Artifacts. If you smuggle a large group of people in one and leave with them, I’ll be at a loss."

Upon hearing this, Xuanzhenzi immediately fell silent, then smiled wryly, "Indeed, this little trick of mine cannot fool you, Taiyi."

He had intended to gamble, but did not expect this Taiyi to be so on guard. Thus, this tactic came to no avail.

"Master, your disciple is useless, having had this plan seen through by Taiyi. Please, Master, make your appearance,"

He sighed, then with a swirl of his Daoist robe, a splendid jade palace flew out.

In the next moment, a figure emerged from the jade palace, transforming into a teenage Daoist boy.

Though he appeared young, his eyes radiated the serenity of heaven and earth, a presence almost akin to the Dao itself.

The nearby Yuqing Taoist, along with other Great Perfection Cultivators, were momentarily stunned upon seeing this teenage Daoist. Then they bowed in unison, "Greetings, Eastern Pole Venerable."

They addressed him by the title of Venerable.

This teenage Daoist was by no means a Great Perfection cultivator but a true Enlightened one.

In the Cultivation World, an Enlightened one had reached the pinnacle of cultivation, with no further progress possible. Yet, since ancient times, those who have reached this realm are as rare as phoenix feathers, countable on one hand.

"Eastern Pole Venerable?" Li Yi narrowed his eyes, "So, an Enlightened one."

"Greetings, Taiyi Heavenly Venerate," the young Daoist smiled and offered a salute.

It was not Li Yi who was surprised by this title, but the other Great Perfection cultivators. They looked at Li Yi with shock; they hadn’t expected Eastern Pole Venerable to address him as Taiyi Heavenly Venerate.

This indicated that Taiyi’s strength had already gained recognition from the Eastern Pole Venerable, or perhaps Taiyi was already very close to the rank of Venerable and should not be underestimated.

"Even an Enlightened one wants to cross dimensions?" Li Yi asked.

The young Daoist sighed, "This world is beyond saving. Even though I have attained enlightenment, the Spiritual Energy is so depleted that it will diminish heaven and earth. Now that Taiyi Heavenly Venerate has come from across dimensions to rescue us from this sea of suffering, how could I miss this opportunity?"

"Even if an Enlightened one wishes to cross dimensions, I’ll still have to charge a fee," Li Yi stated. "If you have any objections, I can accompany you in a battle."

He remained unafraid of facing an Enlightened one.

Combining the strength of One God and his dual cultivation, though uncertain of the outcome, he didn’t think he would be defeated in a fight with an Enlightened one. At worst, it could end in mutual destruction.

Without showing some strength, how could he gain authority and control these people in the future?

"There’s no need to fight,"

The young Daoist waved his Daoist robe, a light flew toward Li Yi, leaving a rune mark on his arm.

This was the Sacrifice Spell.

"Master," Xuanzhen Taoist, who was nearby, was astonished, not expecting even his master to plant the Sacrifice Spell.

"Taiyi Heavenly Venerate, are you satisfied?" the young Daoist asked with a smile.

Li Yi remained calm, "No one knows if the Sacrifice Spell can bind an Enlightened one, but it doesn’t matter. If you’re willing to plant the spell, I’m willing to trust you this time. You will be part of this dimensional crossing."

He then looked at the others, "Anyone else who wishes to leave? My time is limited, and I won’t stay here long."

Yuqing Taoist and the other Great Perfection cultivators, seeing that even the Enlightened Eastern Pole Venerable had planted the Sacrifice Spell, had nothing to say, sighed inwardly, and decided not to resist any longer, casting their rays of light.

Thirty-two Sacrifice Spells appeared, and Li Yi sensed them to confirm none were left out.

"It seems you all made the right decision, very well, in that case, prepare to depart with me."

Seeing the matter was concluded, Li Yi immediately prepared to leave.

"Heavenly Venerate, could you wait a moment, we have some personal matters to attend to," Yuqing Taoist said.

Li Yi said, "I’ll give you two hours, two hours later, enter the Immortal Dao Battleship and come with me across dimensions."

He wasn’t completely without sympathy, since they were willing to serve him and had planted the Sacrifice Spell, he was willing to grant them some convenience.

"Thank you, Heavenly Venerate," Yuqing Taoist expressed his gratitude.

He then glanced at the other Daoists.

Immediately, everyone rode on Xiangyun, their Divine Light disappearing from sight. Clearly, they had returned to Outer Heaven, striving to settle all personal matters within two hours.

In fact, their actions were unnecessary.

As long as they stayed on Earth for a while, they could completely obtain the cross-dimensional machine and Miracles, and in the future, they could cross dimensions themselves, with not entirely no chance of returning here.

However, Li Yi did not say much and let them be. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ NoveIＦire.net

He returned to the Immortal Dao Battleship.

Lin Yue was continuously observing the situation outside. Seeing Li Yi’s return, she understood that those experts following Li Yi were from this Dharma Decline World.

"Li Yi, taking so many powerful beings back to Earth at once, won’t it cause trouble?" she asked in a low voice.

"Trouble indeed, but compared to threats from other worlds, what’s a little trouble?"

Li Yi replied, "Back then, if it weren’t for the Cultivation Experts from the Dharma Decline World, Earth would have long been invaded. Sister Lin, don’t worry, I’ll control them. If anyone causes trouble, I’m confident I can deal with them."

Sister Lin thought for a moment, nodded slightly, and said no more.

This matter indeed had more advantages than disadvantages.

Acquiring dozens of strong experts for free was worth taking some risks. If Li Yi intended to engage in cross-dimensional warfare, these people would be the formidable generals leading the charge.
