After the Skyfall
Chapter 456 Failed Calculation
Chapter 456 Failed Calculation
As the vice-president of the Golden Academy, Sun Boxiu understood better than anyone that these Nascent Soul cultivators represented various sects of the Xuanxian Continent. Although their number seemed small, if they were offended, it would be equivalent to offending all the forces behind them. No one could predict what consequences would be caused at that time.
Li Yi killed more than a dozen Jindan cultivators and two Yuanying cultivators today. To be honest, it was a good kill.
If some cultivators from the Xuanxian Continent are not killed, they will only think that the Golden Academy is easy to bully and will become even more unscrupulous in the future. Therefore, Li Yi must be protected at all costs. If he is killed by the other party, there will be no need to continue operating the Golden Academy and it can be disbanded directly on the spot.
People’s hearts are the only thing that Golden Academy can rely on now.
If people’s hearts are lost, the masters of the Soul Realm, Spirit Power Realm, and even the Spirit God Realm in the Golden Academy will probably be greatly disappointed, and will cross the realm and leave one by one, and will never be able to stay here again.
“If Taixianweng insists on doing this today, all the evolvers in my Golden Academy can accompany you to the end. Maybe we are much inferior to you in overall strength, but if a full-scale world war really starts, it is not impossible for us to invite a god to cross the world to fight. At worst, both worlds will be destroyed.”
Sun Boxiu had been holding back his anger for a long time, and now he could no longer hold it in and let out a roar.
As soon as these words came out, Taixianweng’s face suddenly changed.
What he feared most was that the Earth was protected by a god. The last time they crossed the border and delivered that earth-shattering blow, destroying the Xuanxian Continent was no joke. If not for this, they would not have come to the Golden Academy with such a gentle attitude and would have been plundering opportunities everywhere.
But after investigation, Taixianweng knew that it was just a small fight and killing a few evolvers from the Golden Academy would not escalate to the level of a world war.
“Dean Sun, this is too serious. You should know that Li Yi killed more than a dozen Jindan cultivators from our Xuanxian Continent as soon as he came back from the boundary. I have been helping to suppress this matter, but those Yuanying cultivators also have tempers and want to challenge Li Yi. Before, Taoist Chongxu of Ziqi Palace was defeated by Li Yi and was killed, but I didn’t say anything. Chen Yangzi of Danding Sect was also killed by Li Yi, but I still tolerated it again and again.”
Taixianweng sighed at this moment and said, “Unfortunately, this evolver from your school acted too extreme. He fought with others to the death without mercy. Now he has killed so many people. It is not something that can be explained in a few words. Moreover, Li Chengyu, the Yuanying sword cultivator of the Yujian Sect, challenged Li Yi openly, and Li Yi accepted the challenge.”
“Under such circumstances, Dean Sun still wants to forcibly cancel the competition and protect Li Yi. I am really powerless to do anything.”
His tone was tactful, as if the people of his Xuanxian Continent were at a disadvantage and were the ones who were wronged. It was the evolvers from your Golden Academy who were aggressive and killed people everywhere, which attracted the attack from everyone.
Sun Boxiu said: “More than a month ago, several of you Jindan cultivators ignored the rules and joined forces to attack and kill Li Yi, and another Jindan cultivator crossed the boundary to chase and kill him. Now that Li Yi has crossed the boundary and returned, it is natural to settle accounts. Not only him, but if you continue to behave recklessly in the Golden Academy, in the future, the masters on our Earth will cross the boundary and return, and they will also settle accounts with Xuanxian Continent. Maybe the evolutionists on our Earth are not as strong as those on Xuanxian Continent, but if we fight together, it is not impossible to blow up an entire world.”
“Grandmaster Taixian, don’t bring disaster upon yourself for a small gain. You cultivators seek immortality, but what you are doing is the opposite of immortality. To use the words on Earth, you are courting death.”
He has long seen through the true faces of the people from Xuanxian Continent over the past few days.
He claims to be a cultivator, but in reality he is a bandit and a bully.
However, Sun Boxiu also understood that the reason for this was that the evolutionists on Earth were still too weak to deter foreign enemies. This was human nature and had nothing to do with anything else.
Therefore, the more this time comes, the more the Golden Academy must show its strength.
If you keep showing weakness, people will only take advantage of you.
Taixian Weng narrowed his eyes, as if thinking, and then smiled and said: “Since Dean Sun said so, then I will try my best to persuade the disciples of the big sects, but I am alone and weak, and I don’t know whether I can ease the conflict. But please understand that Dean Sun, I am only for the friendship between the two sides, and I don’t have any hostility.”
“That’s the best.” Sun Boxiu’s expression eased a little at this moment.
Taixianweng bowed, then flew towards those Nascent Soul cultivators and began to transmit his voice using his spiritual consciousness.
“Golden Academy must protect Li Yi. You have indeed gone too far recently. If you don’t restrain yourself, a war will probably break out sooner or later. You all come from big sects, and I can’t control you. But the sects behind you have received the decree of the immortals. If you don’t do things well or something goes wrong, you will have to bear the consequences yourself.”
He must first get rid of his own responsibility so that he won’t be blamed if something goes wrong in the future.
“Senior Taixianweng, this is not like your usual style. Are we going to give in just because they threaten us? If a fight really comes, what can the Golden Academy do to us? Even if they use all their experts, they may not be able to defeat us.” Yuan Ye stood up at this moment and responded directly and forcefully.
“Li Yi may have become a powerful figure. If we don’t kill him today, he may cross the border a few more times and grow up. I’m afraid he will become a serious threat to us.”
“Yes, Fellow Daoist Yuan Ye is right. It doesn’t matter to others, but this Li Yi must die. He killed more than a dozen Jindan cultivators in one breath, and also killed two Yuanying masters. His strength has improved too rapidly. I will not be at ease if he doesn’t die.”
“Grandmaster Taixian, I know you don’t want to offend our sect elders, but you don’t dare to offend the Golden Academy openly. After all, some of their masters did leave across the border. If they come back to settle accounts in the future, you will be the first to bear the brunt. How about this, after killing Li Yi today, find a way to apologize to the Golden Academy.”
These Nascent Soul cultivators united at this moment and were determined to kill Li Yi at all costs.
Taixianweng smiled but said nothing. He knew the result would be like this, but he couldn’t say it out loud. He had to let the Nascent Soul cultivators from the major sects say it out loud.
“Since everyone says so, I can only follow your advice.”
Afterwards, he sent a message to Li Chengyu: “You must kill this Li Yi in this battle. Don’t hold back at the critical moment. If the situation is not right, I will help you secretly. After killing Li Yi, you will roll up his property and escape back to Xuanxian Continent. I will take care of the aftermath. However, after the matter is completed, I will take the Xuanhuang Seal.”
“Senior, you have a big appetite.” Li Chengyu narrowed his eyes. He could kill Li Yi without Taixianweng’s help.
“This person’s five-colored bracelet is also a treasure, and he also has a magic needle, an old Taoist’s glazed golden mirror, and a set of dragon armor. With so many opportunities, can’t they be worth a Xuanhuang Seal?” Taixianweng said.
Li Chengyu’s expression changed slightly. He realized that this Taixianweng clearly wanted the Xuanhuang Seal.
Right.
A treasure that can smash two precious artifacts at once and suppress a Nascent Soul cultivator so hard that he can’t even breathe must be extraordinary.
But the other things are not bad either, and maybe Li Yi has something better hidden on him that he just hasn’t revealed.
Think of this.
“Okay, then it’s a deal.” Li Chengyu decided to take a gamble. He believed in his luck, and he didn’t want to offend a Divine Transformation cultivator at this time. After all, Taixianweng’s secret move could make him win or lose.
To be cautious, he could only make some compromises.
Seeing this, Taixianweng smiled amiably and said, “Then I wish you a successful start.”
While we are discussing here, on the other side.
Sun Boxiu frowned at this moment, worried. He felt that the other party wanted to kill Li Yi, the cultivation genius, and did not want him to rise. At the same time, they also had their eyes on the treasure in Li Yi’s hand and became greedy. These people from the Xuanxian Continent are not easy to deal with. Once they smell the scent, they will hold on to it and will not give up until they achieve their goal.
Moreover, most of those tough words he said just now were actually just bragging. He had no way to call on the gods, nor could he fight to the death, let alone have the confidence to blow up an entire world.
But you can’t do without bluffing.
The other party fell for it. Very quickly.
Taixianweng flew back again. He said helplessly, “Dean Sun, I just discussed with the other cultivators. They are eager for revenge and it is difficult to persuade them. But for the sake of the overall situation, the bottom line is that Li Yi and Yuanying sword cultivator Li Chengyu must finish the fight.”
“A match determines victory or defeat, life or death, and also settles grudges.”
“No matter who wins or loses, everything that happened before ends here. They will not pursue the vengeance of Li Yi for killing more than ten Jindan cultivators in one gulp. Similarly, if there were any offenses in the past, please forgive us, Dean Sun.”
Sun Boxiu’s face darkened: “What if I refuse?”
Sure enough, the other party still wanted to strangle Li Yi.
“Then I will not care about anything and will return to Xuanxian Continent immediately and stay indoors from now on.” Taixian Weng sighed and said, “I don’t want to see the two worlds fighting each other, but I can’t do anything about it, so I can only do this.”
But just as the two people were talking to each other.
Li Yi, who was sitting on a auspicious cloud in mid-air, has completely recovered after eating a Kuilong Pill. With his current mana at the first level of the Fifth Qi Realm, the continuous battles and the control of the top Taoist weapon, the Xuanhuang Seal, have consumed a lot of his mana. If he doesn’t recover his mana, he won’t have much confidence facing a Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator.
“Li Yi, how long do I have to wait for you? If you don’t want to fight, just tell me directly. I can show mercy and let you go.” Li Chengyu said at this moment.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
He was distraught now.
Because Taixianweng was still negotiating with the Golden Academy, the best way to ensure that this matter was foolproof was for the two of them to fight directly. At that time, the Golden Academy would have nothing to say.
“If you want to rush to your death, I will grant your wish.”
Li Yi stretched out his hand and the Xuan Huang Seal flew back immediately and landed in his palm: “I know you want to kill me and take my Xuan Huang Seal, but I also want to take your piece of rare dragon scale. Go ahead. After killing you, I will settle accounts with other Jindan and Yuanying cultivators and make you regret coming to the Golden Academy.”
“How shameless.” Li Chengyu was furious. What Li Yi said at this moment was exactly what he wanted.
“Sword!”
He pointed his sword at Li Yi, shouted suddenly, and then flew out. Then an extremely sharp sword aura surged out from his body, covering him, as if the whole person had turned into a huge sword, rushing straight into the sky.
The giant sword circled above the sky, getting faster and faster, stirring up the surrounding cosmic energy.
A huge energy vortex appeared and quickly gathered on the giant sword, making the sword shine even brighter and its power suddenly rose to the extreme.
Obviously, Li Chengyu did not want to fight with Li Yi and wanted to decide the outcome with one strike, so he used his most powerful killing move to prevent any delay.
Li Yi was not used to his powerful magic power, which was like a red pillar of fire rising into the sky. He swallowed the energy of heaven and earth, circulated Taoism, and opened his mouth to spit out twelve streams of heart fire.
Call the wind.
A strong wind swept across the sky, this time with greater power, covering an area of hundreds of miles in an instant. The sky was illuminated red, and a blazing sea of fire suddenly appeared.
There is no way to avoid such a terrifying magic, you can only take it head-on.
“You have run out of tricks. Let me show you how I will kill you.” Li Chengyu’s voice rang out between heaven and earth, and a huge sword emitting light broke through the air, resisting the burning sea of fire and killing Li Yi.
With his body transformed into a sword and the strength of a Yuanying sword cultivator, he was definitely better than Li Yi. But even so, he still felt bad.
The top Taoist method of calling the wind and rain is too terrifying.
This sea of fire is not an ordinary fire at all, but a heart fire that can burn the Nascent Soul and destroy the five internal organs.
Just by splitting the sea of fire, Li Chengyu’s body turned red, black smoke came out of his nostrils, and his Nascent Soul was in great pain. Even his sword showed signs of melting. He vaguely felt that if he forcibly fought and killed Li Yi, his Nascent Soul would also be ignited. If he did not have special means to put out the fire, he would be dragged down and buried with Li Yi.
But Li Chengyu knew very well that if he was seriously injured, Taixianweng would definitely not help him and would definitely reap the benefits.
“Dragon scale sword!”
With the help of the sword energy, Li Chengyu decisively chose to ignore the rules of the fight and used his own flying sword.
Along with the appearance of a sword light, a low-grade treasure-level dragon scale sword emerged out of thin air, and then turned into a cold light that instantly tore through the sea of fire and killed Li Yi in front of him, and went straight to his head.
“I admit that you are extraordinary in Taoism, but I am the winner. Only those who survive can pursue immortality.” Li Chengyu shouted in his heart, feeling no shame at all for his cheating behavior.
On the road to becoming a sword immortal, some dishonorable means are nothing.
Such an attack was too sudden and too swift.
Li Yi didn’t think that Li Chengyu could forcibly break through his sea of fire and kill him, unless he didn’t want to live. However, the moment his soul gave a warning, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
But the next moment.
A low-grade dragon-scale sword hovered in front of his forehead and could no longer move forward.
“what?”
Li Chengyu was dumbfounded by this scene.
This fatal attack failed, and his dragon scale sword was actually fixed in front of Li Yi.
Could it be that he also cheated and used a magic weapon like himself?
No, that’s not right.
Li Yi did not use any magic weapon, but someone intervened in the competition.
Who, who could it be?
Li Chengyu roared in his heart, wondering who had ruined his planned fatal blow.
