Xiao Jianguo brought Li Yi to a defense line on the east side.
It had been affected by a great battle, leaving it in ruins. Moreover, there weren’t many security devices deployed here, and the number of evolvers stationed was also low. It seed that the battle had caused severe losses, and suitable personnel could not be found to replenish the ranks.
After all, against the Demon God Realm, ordinary evolvers are useless. Only those with great strength can handle it.
And it is now the hardest ti to find powerful individuals.
"Li Yi, I’ll leave this place to you. I’ll try to send more people over to restore this part of the defense line as much as possible," Xiao Jianguo said.
Li Yi surveyed his surroundings and then said, "There’s no need, you can’t deploy experts capable of stopping Sky Demons, and anyone else coming here would likely be sending them to their death. It’s enough if I guard this place alone."
"That won’t do, the numbers are too few and those left behind are not strong; they only have Spirit Power Realm cultivation, and there’s only one person at Spirit God Realm. If you actually encounter demon beasts from the Demon God Realm, you’ll have to fight on your own," Xiao Jianguo said.
Li Yi replied, "Let the remaining ones handle the vigilance, their numbers an nothing to if I can beat the opponents. If I can’t win, even adding manpower is redundant."
He possessed robust mana, unafraid of fierce battles or encirclent, provided he could defeat the opponent.
Xiao Jianguo said, "Li Yi, it’s good that you’re confident, but I’ll still try to assign so people to assist you, even if it’s only to ease your burden a little."
He didn’t want to place the burden of an entire defense line on one person, as the person responsible for the Demon God Realm’s defense line, this was not allowed.
"Do as you please, but the task I agreed to do, I will certainly complete it. I will stay here for thirty days," Li Yi said.
"All right, I’ll leave this place to you, then," Xiao Jianguo said, "but I must make one thing clear beforehand: since you’ve taken on this task, you cannot flee during the mission period."
"Of course, I understand the rules," Li Yi replied.
"That’s good then." Xiao Jianguo finished speaking, saluted Li Yi, and then left with large strides.
After he departed, Li Yi wasted no ti and imdiately started getting to work.
Since he was to stay here for thirty days, it was naturally necessary to plan well to see how to handle any potential crisis in these thirty days.
First and foremost, he needed a safe place to stay.
Can’t stay on this devastated battlefield all the ti with your heart in your mouth; if one day a Sky Demon suddenly attacks and you die confusedly, that would be too wronged.
At this mont, Li Yi took out Tianyi Palace.
This was a Daoist Artifact level palace, even Great Demons couldn’t easily breach it. Staying within Tianyi Palace was considered quite safe.
He casually tossed it away, and Tianyi Palace imdiately transford.
In just the blink of an eye, a building resembling a fortress settled onto the earth.
This was the benefit of a Dao Artifact; it could transform into any shape—he isolated the other parts of Tianyi Palace, opening only a hall for his rest.
The sudden appearance of such a building on the defense line imdiately attracted attention from other evolvers on the defense line.
They flew over, one after another.
"What’s going on, how did a fortress suddenly appear? Is this a new defensive building? It looks a bit strange, there’s no firepower setup, and it doesn’t look particularly sturdy either."
"I just received word that there was an expert nad Li Yi taking charge of the defense line here, the person next to the fortress should be him."
"Finally, sending experts for support; if they don’t co, this place simply can’t be held."
A few voices were raised.
Yet it was only four evolvers who gathered here, three of whom were Spirit Power Realm evolvers, relatively weak in this setting, while the other was a woman with decent strength, having Spirit God Realm cultivation and traces of dual-cultivation techniques.
"Hello, are you Li Yi?" The leading woman inquired very politely.
"I am Li Yi, Xiao Jianguo asked to co here to manage this defense line; you are the evolvers stationed here?" Li Yi asked.
"Yes, I’m Su Mu, nice to et you," Su Mu said, "These are Tao Sheng, Pan Hongjie, and Lu Yi."
She then introduced the three individuals beside her.
These three were experts from the army, dressed similarly. Although they were in the Spirit Power Realm, they exuded an iron-blood aura as if they had gone through many battles, tempered by thousands of trials. While their realm wasn’t particularly high, in the sa realm, very few could win against these three.
"Hello, I’m Li Yi, from now on we’re all teammates. I hope we cooperate smoothly and defend this line together," Li Yi greeted warmly without showing arrogance despite being more powerful.
The three people also greeted Li Yi enthusiastically, as they would fight shoulder to shoulder in the coming period.
"You arrived just in ti. Let introduce this fortress to you." Li Yi pointed at the building in front of them and said, "This is a magic treasure with very strong defense. I use it temporarily as a rest area. Stay inside, and you won’t have to worry about being attacked by demon beasts."
"Since we’re all teammates, I won’t be stingy. If you wish, you can co inside and rest too."
"That’s great," Su Mu said imdiately with delight, "With such a safe place, we won’t have to stay awake every day staring at the surveillance equipnt."
Even Evolvers, without adequate rest over a long period, would beco ntally strained. They need a secure shelter to rest.
"Li Yi, though it might be a bit forward, could you let those three go inside and rest for a day? They haven’t really rested for over a month. In the anti, I can tell you about the situation on the front line," Su Mu suddenly rembered and spoke up.
"No problem. You can go inside and rest. I’ll manage things here for now," Li Yi nodded in agreent.
Tao Sheng, Pan Hongjie, and Lu Yi, all rather quiet by nature, just nodded and headed towards the fortress to rest for a day, intending to recover their spirits to better face the upcoming crisis.
After they went to rest, Su Mu continued, "Li Yi, although this question is rather bold, I need to confirm personally. What level of demon beast can you handle?"
"When I arrived, I killed a Sky Demon. Any opponent below a Great Demon is no match for ," Li Yi said, "Plus, I believe my strength will further improve with training, so you don’t have to worry about that."
"Capable of killing a Sky Demon?" Su Mu was elated at this mont, "I never thought your strength was so formidable; even a Sky Demon isn’t your match. I knew we couldn’t be unlucky all the ti. Finally, we’ve found a true expert this ti."
Being able to contend with a Sky Demon ans the casualties on this defensive line will be greatly reduced.
As for Great Demons, they are a rare presence. Even if they appear, strong fighters who guard the line will go into action, so there’s no need for them to worry.
"Li Yi, co with . I’ll show you the size of the area we’re responsible for and so matters to be attentive to." Thereafter, Su Mu rose into the air, signaling Li Yi to follow.
Li Yi, being new here, indeed needed to understand the situation, so he generated a golden Xiangyun beneath his feet and followed.
Soon, Su Mu took him flying a certain distance towards the Demon God Realm.
Approximately several dozen kiloters.
"Within these hundred kiloters are various surveillance devices and detection equipnt. As soon as any demon beast appears, alarms will ring imdiately. However, these devices need to be continuously added as they are frequently destroyed by the enemy."
"Therefore, we must stay vigilant because sotis when alarms go off, it might be a false alarm, intended to tire us out, but other tis it could be a real assault."
"Our area stretches from that side to here, and the real threat cos from the north direction. This path leads to the Demon God Realm, and the demon beasts co from over there."
Su Mu continued to explain to Li Yi, sharing her experiences without reservation.
Li Yi nodded, keeping note of all this.
He felt it was necessary to learn humbly and not to beco arrogant or complacent. After all, this was a battlefield. Even though there were Spirit God Realm experts backing him, there could always be monts of unpreparedness, so ultimately, he had to rely on himself in crucial tis.
After making a round of inspections.
Su Mu stopped at the end of the line, "This is as far as we can safely reach. Beyond here is the territory of the Demon God Realm."
Li Yi looked up at this mont, and he saw a mountain ridge had appeared on the distant grassland, like a city wall, dividing the Demon God Realm and Earth.
Upon the ridge, Demon Qi lingered, and so flags fluttered.
He could see clearly, on one of the flags were ancient demon scripts. Although he didn’t know their aning, he guessed they should an: Sky Moon.
Because these demon beasts were acting on the orders of the Sky Moon Demon King, invading Earth.
Between the opposing lines lay devastation, the ground stained blood-red, littered with the remains of demon beasts, alongside many Evolvers’ skeletons and fragnts of various weapons.
This was simply a bloody battlefield.
While Li Yi looked out toward them, beings from the enemy’s city-wall-like ridge were also looking over.
In just a mont, he sensed many murderous gazes converging in this direction.
"We can’t stay here long. The creatures from the Demon God Realm have nasty temperants. They often can’t resist breaking through the line to engage us, which is why battles frequently erupt here."
Su Mu also sensed the danger, her heart turning chilly for a mont, hurriedly speaking, urging Li Yi to swiftly retreat to avoid unnecessary friction.
"Are there any Great Demons on their side?" Li Yi asked.
"Surely there are Great Demons stationed, but they rarely take action. Sky Demons attack frequently, which is why having soone skilled at fighting Sky Demons is so crucial," Su Mu said.
Evidently, even in the Demon God Realm, Great Demons aren’t as common as weeds, always ready for dispatch.
"As long as Great Demons don’t act, there’s nothing much to worry about." Li Yi glanced over, then leisurely withdrew with Su Mu, returning to the area they were responsible for.
