As soon as Li Yi appeared in the Golden Academy, his formidable aura caught the attention of many people. Although he did not display the majesty of a One God, the thunder power striking like a storm was indeed unsettling.
Just exhaling a breath was enough to stir the wind and thunder, sweeping through the sky, which clearly demonstrated his abundant mana and robust physique.
"This aura is... Li Yi? He’s co to the Golden Academy as well."
Soone instantly recognized him. After all, Li Yi’s performance on the Earth Defense Line a year ago was too dazzling, and many people followed him to repel the forces of the Xuanxian Continent, Demon God Realm, and Dark World, establishing the subsequent peace for over a year.
Back then, the experts on the Earth Defense Line didn’t cross borders to leave, but chose to co to the Golden Academy to exchange cultivation experiences and strive to further enhance their own strength.
"Compared to a year ago, Li Yi’s strength has grown even more." A woman nad Su Mu appeared on a suspended building, gazing at the origin of the tumultuous wind and thunder with astonishnt in her heart.
"A year ago, Li Yi could take down a Demon King, and now with such strength, he’s likely planning so big moves. Who knows what he intends to do at the Golden Academy this ti?" Ye Jingtian, who was in deep cultivation, was disturbed by the thunder and opened his eyes with subtle anticipation.
Everyone knows Li Yi is not one to stay idle; he cultivates to protect his holand, becos stronger, and gathers experts to expel foreign enemies. Even if he disappears cross-border, no one believes he would flee; rather, they think he is seeking opportunities across borders.
Therefore, no one is surprised by Li Yi’s appearance.
Li Yi quickly restrained his aura, stepping on Xiangyun, flying through the Golden Academy with Lin Yue, observing and noting the changes after the academy’s reconstruction.
Suddenly.
Li Yi halted, sensing sothing and looked in one direction.
The next mont, a gigantic mutant beast with a terrifying aura leapt out from a grand hall, and a familiar figure was seen sitting atop the beast, heading directly towards him.
"The Mountain Lord-level Exotic Beast Qiongqi from Red Gold Mountain before." Li Yi imdiately recognized the beast.
And it’s naturally Jiang Mingtian who tad this beast.
"Li Yi, long ti no see, you’re finally back from the Barbaric World." Jiang Mingtian greeted warmly.
Li Yi smiled and said, "You actually guessed I was in the Barbaric World? Why didn’t you go to the Barbaric World to cultivate? You were absent from the last battle; where did you run off to?"
Jiang Mingtian shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "I was compelled, taking a group of relatives and friends across borders to find a safe place, wandering around wasting quite a bit of ti, and finally sent them to the Sixth World. Originally, I wanted to visit the Barbaric World, but since the Golden Academy was rebuilt and the cultivation environnt is good, I temporarily settled down here."
"However, after a period of cultivation, I’m indeed preparing to make a trip to the Barbaric World to try to ta a second Mountain Lord-level mutant beast, which would be a significant enhancent to my own strength."
"It’s a pity you didn’t go sooner; otherwise, I could have helped you catch so Mountain Lord-level mutant beasts to ta. I don’t know how to ta beasts, so I had to kill so potentially great ones." Li Yi shook his head slightly, feeling a bit regretful.
Jiang Mingtian laughed and said, "It’s alright, the Barbaric World is vast, with countless mutant beasts; finding a few Mountain Lord-level beasts is easy."
"This Qiongqi is well-kept, its power has improved significantly, and it has started cultivating." Li Yi now scrutinized the fierce and dangerous mutant beast Qiongqi.
In just over a year, this beast’s power had grown to Thirty Mountain Lord Level, its previous strength being rely Ten Mountain Lord Level.
With this current power, coupled with its learning of cultivation and mastery of spells, Immortals might not stand a chance against it.
"I’ve relied on it to navigate through dangers multiple tis; I had no choice but to heap resources upon it." Jiang Mingtian was also a bit helpless, initially wanting to follow the path of a Sword Immortal but instead turned towards beast taming.
This Mountain Lord-level Qiongqi was just too promising; as long as one does not seek trouble, relying on this Qiongqi, he could essentially traverse without obstacle.
Therefore, Jiang Mingtian decided, to take Qiongqi to the Barbaric World to capture other Mountain Lord-level mutant beasts and then ta them, firmly establishing his path in beast taming.
Li Yi thought for a mont and said, "By the way, Jiang Mingtian, I ca to the Golden Academy this ti to assemble a group of experts to prepare for attacking other worlds for revenge; are you interested in participating?"
"Cross-border battle?" Jiang Mingtian’s gaze instantly focused, "Li Yi, isn’t this matter a bit rushed?"
"Do we have to wait until all of us are prepared? Revenge should be swift, otherwise what’s the point?" Li Yi said, "If you’re interested in participating, I suggest you go to the Red Gold Mountain in the Barbaric World now, take my command, and I’ll have several Divine Blood Warriors assist you in capturing Mountain Lord-level mutant beasts to strengthen your power."
Jiang Mingtian knew Li Yi was soone who acted decisively, disliking procrastination. Since he ntioned it, whether people follow or not, he would proceed; after all, everyone knew he had rallied a large group of cultivation experts in the Dharma Decline World, allowing him to initiate a cross-border war himself.
"Alright, I’ll take a trip to the Barbaric World and strive to return early."
Jiang Mingtian gritted his teeth and decided to join this cross-border battle, realizing it was also an opportunity for himself.
With Li Yi’s assistance, he could obtain a sufficient number of Mountain Lord-level mutant beasts in the shortest ti.
Li Yi nodded slightly, then extended his hand and pointed, a bolt of thunder carrying divine power condensed into a token, which upon activation could transform into a phantom to relay his command.
Jiang Mingtian wasn’t polite; he took the Token and imdiately set off, knowing that Li Yi wouldn’t stay long at the Golden Academy and that the cross-dinsional battle would soon occur.
Li Yi watched him leave, also hoping his journey would be relatively smooth and he could ta the powerful mutant beast at the Thirty Mountain Lord Level to contribute to the subsequent battles.
"Li Yi, the deputy dean of Golden Academy, Sun Boxiu, has arrived," Lin Yue reminded softly from the side.
He withdrew his gaze and looked to the other side.
Sure enough, he saw Sun Boxiu leading several powerful experts flying towards them, seemingly to greet him personally.
However, Li Yi felt that his current self was deserving of the deputy dean’s welco, as he had almost single-handedly driven away Earth’s formidable enemies and brought this rare ti of peace.
As a ritorious person, having so special treatnt was normal.
"Haha, Li Yi, it’s been a long ti since I last saw you. You’re finally back. I’ve always looked forward to reuniting with you. Fortunately, you were there during the Earth Defense Line incident last year. Without you, there wouldn’t be the Earth we have today." Sun Boxiu appeared very enthusiastic upon eting him.
Li Yi said, "Dean Sun, you’re being too kind. Even without , there would have been experts stepping forward to reverse the Sky Tipping in tis of crisis."
"That’s different. Under those circumstances, only you could achieve such a feat. I heard from Xiao Jianguo and the others that they were already prepared to cross dinsions and flee Earth, and so survival bases had even opened the Cross-border Gates," Sun Boxiu shook his head. "If it weren’t for you defeating those formidable enemies invading Earth, there wouldn’t be Golden Academy now."
No matter who faced Li Yi, they would acknowledge his contributions.
Despite many not joining that great battle due to insufficient strength or other reasons, they had to recognize Li Yi’s accomplishnts.
"Dean Sun, I’ve co to Golden Academy this ti to gather so high-ranking officials to discuss cross-dinsional combat. If you’re willing, could you help make so introductions?" Li Yi got straight to the point without any pleasantries, voicing his thoughts directly.
"Cross-dinsional combat?" Sun Boxiu was montarily stunned but quickly understood Li Yi’s intentions.
In fact, this idea wasn’t unique to Li Yi. Many of the experts involved in the Earth Defense Line had similar thoughts, but there was no consensus, and the top-level combat power was insufficient, so there had been no moves.
Simply put, there was a lack of leadership.
Now that Li Yi had stepped forward, many were likely to respond to his call.
After a brief contemplation, Dean Sun said, "Li Yi, I have no problem taking the lead on this, but there’s one more issue that must be addressed first."
"What issue?" Li Yi asked.
Sun Boxiu now lowered his voice and said, "Soone has found the source of Earth’s energy pollution. The high-level officials are discussing how to handle it."
"The source of Cosmic Energy pollution?" Li Yi’s eyes flickered. "Where is the source? When was it discovered?"
"Discovered a few months ago, as for the location..." Sun Boxiu looked up at the sky at this mont.
Li Yi imdiately understood and frowned, "The source of the pollution is on the Moon?"
"This is confidential,"
Sun Boxiu said, lowering his voice, while an Energy Barrier lit up around them, isolating the nearby students from listening.
"Finding the source of the pollution is a good thing; why not deal with it imdiately? It’s just the Moon. If necessary, I could make a trip, blow it up, or use Mana to blast it out of Earth’s orbit so it drifts away from our world in space." Li Yi imdiately thought of a solution.
Sun Boxiu shook his head with a wry smile, "It’s not that simple. The high-level officials also tried using Sixth World technology to push the Moon away, but it failed. There’s a natural Grand Array protecting the Moon, and as for destroying it... that also failed."
"Such a thing," Li Yi pondered.
He recalled the words of Hua Qing’s residual soul inside the Sword Coin, who had ntioned that Earth’s pollution was man-made, not naturally ford. Now, as Earth’s experts grew in number and their exploration range expanded, discovering the pollution issue on the Moon was only a matter of ti.
And the current discovery indeed confird Hua Qing’s words were true.
"Li Yi, if you want to engage in cross-dinsional combat, shouldn’t you consider addressing Earth’s pollution issue first? As long as this thing exists, it will severely affect everyone’s cultivation speed, and the pollution will also corrode many with low cultivation levels," Sun Boxiu said.
"One must secure internal harmony before handling external conflicts, I understand this principle."
Li Yi said, "But the two things don’t conflict; we can address the pollution issue while preparing for cross-dinsional combat. If we successfully conquer a Cultivation World, after transforming it for settlent, wouldn’t it be better than staying on Earth?"
"Many worlds are connected with Earth, conquering a Great Realm equates to expanding Earth’s area."
"Pollution has already started extending to other worlds, and the Xuanxian Continent’s cultivators have already been affected. Even if we conquer the Xuanxian Continent, we’ll still face the pollution problem in the end," Sun Boxiu said.
