"Immortal, how can you speak such bold and shaless words so casually?" Nearby, Tu Daoist heard this and widened his eyes in shock.
"You bald bastard, eavesdropping on my words? courting death!" Xiang Xiangzi imdiately glared at him, her fury igniting in an instant. She lifted her Daoist robe and launched a fierce kick toward him.
Tu Daoist, unable to dodge in ti, let out a wretched scream as he was sent flying. He tumbled several tis on the ground before slamming heavily into the wall, his nose nearly fractured, and blood stread uncontrollably.
"Hmm, these bald types have tough lives. He’s not dead yet?"
Xiang Xiangzi then scanned her surroundings, reached out to remove a window fra, and charged straight at him, wielding it threateningly.
"Immortal, have rcy!" he shouted, clutching his nose as he turned and fled.
Li Yi watched, his eyelid twitching violently. Thankfully, Xiang Xiangzi’s cultivation level had plumted, leaving her without any mana. Otherwise, in her peak state, with her commanding Dragon and Tiger Power, who could withstand her? Truly, the Dragon Subduing and Tiger Suppressing Technique wasn’t suitable for won to practice—it made a poised and alluring Immortal turn into soone as fierce as a tempest. Once she started fighting, her ruthlessness and strength were unparalleled, beyond the capabilities of ordinary people.
At this mont, however, Cang Erzi, Xuan Yuezi, and Wu the Taoist approached.
Impatience was evident on their faces as they anxiously inquired, "Taiyi, when exactly are we opening the cross-border gate to leave this place?"
Li Yi glanced at the ti and said, "It’s about ti. I trust that the three of you are ready. Then let’s proceed now. If there’s nothing holding you back, feel free to join outside the palace."
With that said, he strode out of the grand hall.
Outside Taiyi Palace lay a broad expanse of land, paved with jade stones glowing translucent and untouched by dust. Bathed in sunlight, the jade radiated a sparkling brilliance, embodying the essence of celestial grandeur.
Li Yi now stood at the center of the grounds, retrieving the Cross-border Machine from his storage magical artifact.
A piece of futuristic equipnt, triangular in shape.
Nearby, Divine Lady Yun, Tian Jizi, Nun Liu, and dozens of other cultivators quickly gathered. They watched in curiosity, eager to witness firsthand how the cross-border gate would be opened. Why hadn’t practitioners of old thought of such a thod? If one could glean even a fraction of insight, recovering their strength in the future might lead to the possibility of independently using the cross-border gate.
To the practitioners of this world, cross-border travel was an entirely new realm.
It wasn’t that cultivators lacked the power to cross borders—had they known of such a concept centuries earlier, the masters of the Tri-Floral Realm could have likely forged Dao Artifacts capable of interworld travel.
However, cross-border travel carried imnse risks. Without the proper thods, the gate one opened could lead into a void, a desolate space, or perhaps an uncharted, starry expanse. Precisely connecting to a brand-new world posed extraordinary difficulty. The nurous cross-border points appearing on Earth were a byproduct of Earth’s constantly twisting energy field, which perpetually distorted space.
Given frequent enough occurrences, one’s luck might eventually land on opening a proper cross-border gate.
Li Yi subsequently brought out the miraculous items.
An incomplete bronze knife coin, a fragnt of bone, and the Seven-Colored Stone.
Having crossed realms once already, the glow on the bronze knife coin had markedly dimd. The broken bone fared even worse, riddled with cracks, its energy field diminished to the point of near nonexistence—this realm’s next crossing might push it to total destruction. The only item still in relatively good shape was the Seven-Colored Stone, its imnse energy still awe-inspiring.
Yet even so, Li Yi could sense that the Seven-Colored Stone was not as radiant as before.
This was because this world lacked the nourishnt of cosmic energy, leaving the miraculous items unable to replenish themselves.
"What is that... it emits spiritual energy? That’s not a Spirit Stone—is it so kind of magic treasure?"
"A re Seven-Colored Stone possessing such vast spiritual energy? If this were used for cultivation, one’s advancent would be unfathomable!"
"A broken knife? It resembles a shard of a Dao Artifact... no, if complete, it must be more powerful than a re Dao Artifact. Broken Dao Artifacts don’t radiate spiritual energy like this."
The crowd stared in bewildernt and uncertainty at the three items in Li Yi’s hands.
"Taiyi, that bronze dagger must have been a magic artifact crafted by soone. Let old Wu study it later—I’ll help you think of a way to fully restore it."
At this mont, Tu Daoist ran over, still clutching his nose but now fixating on the incomplete coin, marveling at its extraordinary craftsmanship.
If he could study it thoroughly, his artifact refining skills would surely rise to a new level.
Li Yi said, "Senior, this incomplete coin is only half of the whole. Once I find the other half, I’ll let you examine it—to see if it can be restored."
Right now, everyone’s fates were intertwined, and there was no need to hide many of his secrets. So things that weren’t particularly critical could be shown.
"If you can find the other half, that would be ideal," Tu Daoist said with a nod.
"Is this the reason why Taiyi can still cultivate even in the End of Dharma? That Seven-Colored Stone is extraordinary—it seems to have ford from the blood of so supre entity. It contains the forces of yin and yang and the Five Elents, thus producing its seven hues. But it’s difficult to imagine... a living being of such boundless creation existing in this world! And just one drop of its blood radiates such imnse spiritual energy. The power of its original form must be beyond comprehension."
Most of the individuals present, though, were entranced by the Seven-Colored Stone.
From ten zhang (about 30 ters) away, they could already feel the surrounding spiritual energy recovering, as if the End of Dharma era had already passed.
Li Yi placed the three miraculous items atop the Cross-border Machine. Then he commanded Lan Ji from the Thunderbolt Fighter to control the device and prepare to activate the cross-border gate.
Destination: Earth.
Upon receiving the command, the Cross-border Machine imdiately roared to life.
The incomplete knife coin, fractured bone, and Seven-Colored Stone were all drained of their energies by the machine, which then converged all the power in one place.
