Inside the conference hall. Although Li Yi’s abrupt appearance interrupted everyone’s meeting, no one was angry because of it. Even though they are in charge and are high-level officials, they are often reprimanded by the captains of the combat squads and are recognized as scapegoats. After all, the status of Evolvers is determined by strength, not by position. "Li Yi, do you want to directly start a dimensional war?" Hearing Li Yi’s words, Zhao Yongshan immediately understood his intention. "Hasn’t the dimensional war already begun? I’m just adding fuel to the fire." Li Yi said: "How long do you think this humiliating stalemate will last? You know you can’t match their foundation, so you might as well take a gamble and wipe out the experts sent by the so-called Demon God Realm and Xuanxian Continent in one fell swoop." "How to wipe them out? The other side’s base has ten Immortals, plus a True Immortal remotely overseeing, and there are at least hundreds of Mahayana Cultivators. And this is only at one base of the Xuanxian Continent. The two Demon Kings from the Demon God Realm are also prepared to enter the field at any time, Great Demons have also increased in number, and those Evil Gods and dark forces have already shrouded hundreds of miles. Do you think we want to be humiliated? It’s just that we can’t win." One of the high-level officials said somewhat shamefully. If he were afraid of death, he wouldn’t be at the Earth Defense Line. It’s just that the situation is truly despairing. "Li Yi, I know you’ve been pursued by the Demon King and are filled with anger, wanting revenge, but you need to be rational. Even though the dozens of reinforcements you brought are top-notch experts, to be honest, we still don’t have the capacity for a counterattack." Xiao Jianguo sighed at this moment and began to persuade. "There are thousands of reasons not to fight, but only one reason to fight." Li Yi looked at everyone and said: "I’ve already arranged for someone to notify other comrades. I plan to act this afternoon. If possible, I hope Wang Chengjun, Li Weiguo, and Zhang Xinghua can step in. Their strength is substantial and can help to hold back the Demon Kings, which would be of great assistance to me." "Li Yi, you’re being reckless." A high-level official was shocked and angry, not expecting Li Yi to be so decisive and already calling on others. Zhao Yongshan and Xiao Jianguo were also stunned. From Li Yi’s expression, he was serious. "Li Yi, how confident are you?" After a brief silence, Zhao Yongshan spoke: "You must understand that once we start, the situation will become completely uncontrollable. At that time, with Demon Kings entering, Evil Gods manifesting, and True Immortals descending... To put it bluntly, Earth itself might get shattered." "You’re afraid of this and that, but do you think the other side isn’t afraid? If you’re strong enough, the other side will back down." Li Yi said: "If Earth gets shattered, I’ll cross into their world and shatter their world too, to see who suffers more." "You know we can cross dimensions, but they can’t. At this point, why are we still worrying so much? Besides, haven’t you already prepared other worlds for evacuation?" Upon hearing this, everyone felt that Li Yi’s words made sense. Unlike other worlds, although Earth lacks foundation, it has numerous cross-dimensional escapes. Many have already emigrated to other worlds, so no matter what, culture and heritage won’t vanish. "Li Yi, how do you want to fight?" At this moment, two familiar figures suddenly appeared in the conference room. "Wang Chengjun, Li Weiguo?" Li Yi glanced and immediately recognized these two people. These are the strong individuals who have cultivated the Qi Fortune Technique, but he remembered there was also a strong person named Zhang Xinghua. Why are there only these two now? Could it be that the other met with misfortune and perished? Although it was only speculation, Li Yi felt it was quite possible. However, he did not ask further and directly said: "Start with the people of the Xuanxian Continent. Those Cultivators are all cowardly, their fighting will isn’t strong. It shouldn’t be hard to defeat them." "How will you deal with the Immortals?" Wang Chengjun asked again. Li Yi said: "With my current strength, I can slay Immortals, and the helpers I brought are strong enough to handle Immortals too." "What if a True Immortal descends?" Li Weiguo asked from the side. Li Yi said: "That depends on how many True Immortals there are. If it’s less than three, we can still win. If it’s more than three, it could get troublesome. After all, war is uncontrollable, and no one knows what changes might occur. However, I believe the True Immortals of Xuanxian Continent wouldn’t easily enter the stage, at least they wouldn’t want to perish together with our forces." "The Evil Gods from the Demon God Realm and Dark World are watching closely." Hearing this, Li Weiguo and Wang Chengjun nodded slightly and added: "The other two sides also won’t assist; they’re happy to watch the tigers fight from the mountain. Since you have such strength, this action is indeed feasible." "Of course. If I wasn’t confident, would I rush to my death?" Li Yi said: "I’m just not sure what the two of you are thinking." "We can cooperate with you, no matter what the outcome, we won’t blame you." Without hesitation, Wang Chengjun immediately said: "You’re fighting for the Earth Defense Line, bringing so many experts and aiming to turn the tide. We can’t just stand by and watch. If we’re going to fight, we’ll fight with you." "That’s right. Since the situation is already so dire, why fear it getting a little worse? If we can win, everything will improve. If we can’t, at worst we’ll die in battle, but at least it’ll be a worthy death." Li Weiguo also said decisively. With the two strong individuals guarding the Earth Defense Line voicing their support, naturally, others had little to say. Zhao Yongshan immediately said: "Li Yi, although the brains of the Earth Defense Line currently calculate that there are seven hundred sixty-five people, in reality, only three hundred twenty can participate in combat on the front line. How many do you intend to take for this action?" At this moment, he planned to come straight to the point. Li Yi understood what Zhao Yongshan meant: "No need for so many empty words, how many top Evolvers are there who can fight against Great Demons and Mahayana Cultivators? Just tell me directly, in battles of this level, numbers aren’t the key, quality is what matters." Get full chapters from novel·fıre·net Zhao Yongshan paused, then said: "Thirty-eight people. I can give you the list, but whether they are willing to cooperate with your actions, I cannot assure you. However, I will try my best to help coordinate." "In that case, let’s act quickly. In an hour, gather near the Black Great Wall those who are willing to participate. As for those who are not interested, I won’t force them." After Li Yi finished speaking, he didn’t stop but turned around and left immediately. Everyone in the conference hall exchanged glances and did not hesitate. They immediately began to contact others. They have worked together for a long time, and many things need not be spoken explicitly. Since they’ve already made a decision, they won’t say anything superfluous, only striving to support Li Yi as best as they can. Leaving the place, Li Yi led the group to a section of the Black Great Wall, where he gazed at the distant darkness, slightly furrowing his brows. Despite not wishing to play the hero and do anything akin to restoring the Sky Tipping, he couldn’t just watch Earth fall, letting his friends and family be driven around like lost dogs. He simply did everything he could do. "Taiyi, no need to worry. Even though they outnumber us, we can still win. I am a Cultivator of Great Perfection, the number of enemies means nothing to me." Xiang Xiangzi spoke up at this moment, assuming that Li Yi’s heart was moved by the impending battle, thus offering some comfort. Li Yi nodded subtly, intending to say something but immediately looked towards the distance. A five-colored tunneling light flew over. "Taiyi." Wu the Taoist arrived hurriedly, covered in dust, with injuries on his body, his aura not at its peak. Clearly, he had exerted considerable effort at the Earth Defense Line. "So it’s Wu the Taoist." Xiang Xiangzi sneered: "He’s still alive. I thought he was dead already. What about that bald guy? Did he get eaten by a Great Demon?" "Immortal, Tu Daoist joined the Zero survival base and is now the chief Artifact Refiner. Upon hearing Taiyi returned, this old Taoist specially came to pay respect." Wu the Taoist promptly explained. Seeing familiar faces, he couldn’t help but show a joyful expression. How long hadn’t passed, yet unexpectedly all forty or so Dharma Decline World fellows gathered again today. Though a few were missing, it had little impact. Li Yi expressed quite seriously: "Senior Wu, you’ve worked hard recently, contributing greatly to the Earth Defense Line. I won’t say much gratitude, but as a token, I gift you several Red Gold Dao Artifacts, hoping you won’t find them contemptible." He was still somewhat dissatisfied with Wu the Taoist for previously disregarding Tianchang City’s safety, but this time Wu truly contributed to Earth’s cause, deserving recognition. Thus, without hesitation, he offered three Red Gold Dao Artifacts, one more than other Cultivators. "Red Gold Dao Artifact." On seeing this, Wu the Taoist’s eyes subtly narrowed. Being a Cultivator, how could he not see the value of these Red Gold Dao Artifacts? Before, they were sect treasures, Inheritance Dao Artifacts. And now Taiyi, upon meeting, presented three at once. At this moment, Wu the Taoist felt a mix of emotions, recognizing that his efforts at the Earth Defense Line indeed yielded rewards. Having these three treasures, he no longer worried about dying on the battleground. "Thank you, Taiyi," he said sincerely, offering a respectful salute, hastily accepting the three Red Gold Dao Artifacts. "You’ve been injured. This is Life Water, useful for healing your wounds." Li Yi then presented a large bottle of Life Water to Wu the Taoist for healing. Wu the Taoist quickly accepted, expressing gratitude once again. Indeed, following Taiyi has benefits; as long as one contributes, rewards come immediately. Others merely smiled, without envy. After all, Wu the Taoist contributed more than they did, thus earning an extra Red Gold Dao Artifact was reasonable, causing no dissent. Li Yi sensed many auras approaching, looking up to see other evolutionary experts from Earth arriving. Just a glance revealed several familiar faces. Such as Ye Jingtian, Su Mu, Li Yugang, and former comrades Jiang Yue, Zheng Duoduo, along with Liu Yunbai, Xiang Feiming... But some familiar ones were absent, presumably having perished on the battlefield.
