Rumble!
Li Yi sat with his eyes closed on the rooftop of the fortress, sitting there for eight days straight.
During this period, silver lightning interwove around him, thunder incessantly roared, and the Divine Blood within him increased rapidly with the constant replenishnt of Qi-Blood. As the Divine Blood in his body increased, he was undergoing a transformation towards a Divine physique.
Li Yi felt that when his body was filled with Divine Blood and Golden Dragon Blood across the sixty acupoints, an unimaginable change would occur within himself.
"My strength has increased so much compared to when I first arrived here. If I were to face a Sky Demon now, I would have a slight advantage compared to before. Moreover, the Mana within the acupoints has beco much more vigorous... Although my strength has improved, only upon reaching the Great Perfection of the Five Qi Realm will there be a true qualitative change."
He contemplated silently in his heart.
All the accumulation now is for a brilliant flourish in the future.
The Five Elents are lacking, the Tao Skill is deficient, the Divine Blood is insufficient, the Dragon and Tiger Power is not evident... all these are due to the too-rapid breakthroughs in the Incense Fire God world, and it will take so ti to completely make up for it.
"Li Yi."
However, on the morning of the ninth day, a loud voice suddenly rang out from a place on the defense line.
This voice imdiately caught the attention of Su Mu, as well as Tao Sheng, Pan Hongjie, and Lu Yi, who were stationed there.
Over ti, they had completely recovered, even though Su Mu’s soul was damaged, she was much better than before. Even though Li Yi didn’t require them to do anything, they still routinely patrolled the defense line daily.
Thus, upon hearing this voice, they imdiately appeared near the fortress.
"Who are you?" Su Mu stared at the person shouting.
Only to see a man of unusually burly and tall stature stride over, and before he even got close, an aura of imnse strength and masculinity emanated towards them.
"A master."
Feeling this aura, Su Mu and those beside her couldn’t help but slightly change their expressions.
"He should be a new master recruited recently, unseen on the defense line before. This person’s strength is formidable, seemingly not primarily cultivating the Evolution thod, but rather so other unknown Magic Door. From what I see, this person has likely reached the level of a Sky Demon."
"I fear even the Sky Demon may not be his match; his appearance alone sets my soul on alert."
"He’s here for Li Yi; could they be enemies? That would be unacceptable, as internal fighting is prohibited here; all grievances must be set aside. Only by working together to uphold the defense line can we confront this crisis."
While they were speaking, the person had already arrived before them.
Su Mu, without a word, imdiately stepped forward to block: "Stop, this is the defense line we are stationed at. If you have nothing else, please leave imdiately."
"Li Yi, you bastard, you dared to stand up! We agreed a month ago to have a duel, yet you disappeared for over three months. Today, no matter what, you must give an explanation."
Then this person shouted loudly, his resonant voice vibrating the air, causing one’s ears to buzz.
"Wang Hu?"
At this mont, Li Yi, who was sitting on the rooftop, had already opened his eyes. He looked at Wang Hu, noticing his startling transformation over ti. He was over two ters tall, muscles bulging all over, exuding an explosive power that induced awe.
Anyone who didn’t know would think he was a warrior from the Barbaric World.
"Have you co about the Incomplete Coin matter?" Li Yi said.
"So you still rember," Wang Hu raised an eyebrow. "I ca from far away specifically to find you, and this matter of the Sword Coin should have a resolution. What do you say, Li Yi?"
"You sure are obsessed with this matter, chasing all the way to the defense line. But look at the situation now; the people from the Demon God Realm are about to invade, yet you’re still after the Sword Coin."
At this mont, Li Yi leaped down from the rooftop and landed steadily on the ground.
"These are two separate matters. Since I ca here, I didn’t intend to leave easily. Those scum from the Demon God Realm, I will deal with them, but as for the Sword Coin, I am determined to get it today," Wang Hu said.
Upon hearing this, Li Yi said, "Alright then, it’s ti to resolve everything from the past, so it doesn’t linger. Wang Hu, where is your half of the Sword Coin? Take it out, let’s see."
Without a word, Wang Hu directly took out his half of the Sword Coin.
His half of the Sword Coin was in notably better condition than Li Yi’s, emitting a faint bronze sheen once it was taken out.
At this mont, Li Yi also took out the other half of the Sword Coin from the Five Elents Bracelet, but his Sword Coin was dim, as if it had been exhausted, because he once used it as an energy source to open the Cross-border Gate.
Fortunately, he hadn’t used it a few more tis, otherwise, this half of the Sword Coin would have been completely depleted, shattered, and vanished.
"Good, make your move, Li Yi," Wang Hu grinned broadly.
Li Yi said, "This ti, how about we compete differently?"
"How do you want to compete?" Wang Hu asked with his arms crossed. "No matter the competition, I will win."
"Fighting here would be aningless and could have undesirable effects. Let’s do it this way: give it twenty days, and let’s see who can hunt the most Sky Demons. The one with the higher count wins and must obediently hand over their remaining half of the Sword Coin. How about it?" Li Yi proposed.
"Compete by counting Sky Demon hunts? Alright, I’m in," Wang Hu agreed without hesitation. "In twenty days, I want you to willingly hand over your half of the Sword Coin."
Li Yi said, "I am concerned you might get killed by a Sky Demon, and your Sword Coin would be lost. It’s better to store it with soone to avoid not getting it even if you lose."
"That won’t be necessary; in the anti, don’t cross the border again, or I won’t spare you," Wang Hu said very seriously, also expressing strong discontent.
After all, Li Yi had stood him up once, and there’s no guarantee it wouldn’t happen again.
"I have a duty to guard the defense line; I won’t be leaving here for a month," Li Yi assured.
"That’s good then," Wang Hu snorted, then turned and left.
Li Yi said nothing, only watching his departure.
In truth, he could have avoided all this hassle, directly defeating Wang Hu and taking that half of the Incomplete Coin, then handing it over to Tu Daoist to see if it could be refined into a complete Sword Coin.
After all, it was still a Miracle, and it seed to contain so great secret, or else Wang Hu wouldn’t be so persistent about it.
"Forget it, let’s talk in twenty days," Li Yi thought to himself.
At least he had tricked Wang Hu into fighting the Sky Demons, which was a contribution to the defense line.
"Alright, it’s over; you don’t need to worry about that person. He’s here for , and he’s not really an enemy, it’s just so minor disagreent between us." Li Yi then waved his hand, indicating to Su Mu and the others to stand down.
Su Mu and the others nodded, thinking as long as no fighting occurred within the defense line, it was fine.
However, at that mont.
The alarm, which had been silent for ten days, suddenly blared.
Initially, it was just one alarm, but then a second, a third... countless alarms went off simultaneously.
Moreover, the alarms transmitted the highest level of danger signal.
With the appearance of this signal, Li Yi paused.
He wasn’t knowledgeable about the distinctions in the signal, only glancing at Su Mu, Tao Sheng, Pan Hongjie, and Lu Yi.
At this mont, Su Mu’s eyes suddenly narrowed, almost instinctively looking towards the direction of the defense line, then said, "This, this is a Great Demon invasion, and not just one Great Demon. Damn, what exactly happened for so many Great Demons to appear simultaneously?"
At this mont, she was utterly panicked.
Because since this defense line was established, nothing like this had ever happened.
"Great Demon cross-border?" Upon hearing this, Li Yi’s expression also changed drastically, realizing the gravity of the situation.
