Chapter 550: Chapter 391: Signs of the Apocalypse
In Li Yi’s view, Martial Artists of the Four Seas and Eight Continents are in greater need of gene potions to become Genetic Warriors. Only this method could enable Martial Artists to bypass the need for cosmic energy, thereby strengthening their physique and setting them on the true path of the mighty. This is because the world’s Martial Arts have limitations, but gene potions can help break through these limits.
After spending some time and waiting for another two hours.
Several people had successfully awakened and become Genetic Warriors.
Li Yi looked at the time, feeling that he should return to Tianchang City, so he bid his master farewell.
Zhao Ge did not attempt to keep him, instead saying, "With the imminent Sky Tipping event, it is indeed time to make early preparations. Meng De, you can go about your business without worry. Your mentor here will take care of things on this end. In case of an emergency, retreat to the Four Seas and Eight Continents immediately; preserving oneself is of utmost importance. When facing challenges, do not blindly seek strength. Sometimes, it is also acceptable to step back when circumstances are unfavourable."
"Disciple has taken Master’s words to heart," Li Yi said.
Zhao Ge continued, "If friends and family come to the Four Seas and Eight Continents, they can be settled in the mansion of the City Lord of Sanyang City. It can accommodate over a thousand people without issues. I will have the City Lord Mansion prepared, with servants and maids ready. When the time comes, Meng De, you can directly bring them to stay."
"Master has thought of everything, I’ll leave it in your hands then," Li Yi said.
Zhao Ge spoke, "It’s just some trivial matters. There’s not much I can help you with. After some arrangements have been settled, I will accompany you on an interdimensional journey. After all, Zhao’s Martial Arts Hall is flourishing day by day. There’s not much need for me here; it’s better to go out and experience the world and make my life worthwhile."
Li Yi nodded, "If the situation isn’t too bad, I’ll take Master with me on an interdimensional journey next time."
"Big Brother, don’t forget about me," Shou Hou on the side hurriedly said, "I, Shou Hou, may not have grand abilities, but I’m absolutely reliable as an aide. Big Brother, if you ask me to go east, I definitely won’t go west, guaranteed not to cause any trouble."
"No problem," Li Yi said with a smile. Then he looked around, "Where are Zhao Qian and Rong Niang? Why don’t I see them."
"They haven’t come out of the room yet, most likely needing to rest after becoming Genetic Warriors. Meng De, there’s no need to worry; they are unharmed," Zhao Ge said, "If you’re pressed for time, Meng De, you can leave first."
"Alright, then later on, have Shou Hou say goodbye to them for me. Oh, right, this item is a tribute to Master."
Suddenly, Li Yi thought of something and handed a storage Magic Artifact to Zhao Ge, explaining how to use it.
Zhao Ge, a Gang Refining Realm Martial Artist and a Spirit Medium Realm Evolver, should be able to use the storage Magic Artifact. Moreover, now that Master Zhao Ge, as the head of a hall, having a storage Magic Artifact would be a great help, and Li Yi had plenty of them to spare.
"A storage Magic Artifact? This is quite rare," Zhao Ge was astonished and couldn’t help but start studying the object in his hand that resembled a Jade Pendant.
Li Yi also left the Seven Meridian Cultivation Skill and the Guiding Skill for his Master to study and learn from, hoping to give his Master some insights.
After taking care of these matters, he left.
No sooner had Li Yi left, Zhao Qian and Rong Niang, hearing the noise, immediately came out of the room.
Zhao Ge, looking at the storage Jade Pendant he had put down, then turned around and said, "Why suddenly avoid Meng De? Didn’t you hear? Meng De wanted to see you both before he left, to bid you farewell. It really is lacking in manners."
"Father,"
Zhao Qian looked disheartened, "Your daughter has become an Evolver and has awakened to become a Genetic Warrior, and in addition to practicing Martial Arts... my strength has improved significantly. But the more so, the more I feel my own insignificance, and I’m beginning to understand just how vast is the world Full of strong people that Brother Yi spoke of."
"Brother Yi is like a deity descending to earth, advancing triumphantly. The Four Seas and Eight Continents can no longer contain him. Father, do you think your daughter still has a chance to follow Brother Yi?"
Zhao Ge sighed upon hearing this, "It’s normal for you to feel this way. A person like Meng De comes along once in a millennium in the Four Seas and Eight Continents. Let alone you, even I feel inferior in front of Meng De. However, sometimes many things are not so unreachable that you should give up. Take it as a goal, which is also a way to live."
"Rong Niang, what do you think?"
Rong Niang, with a complex look, said, "Big Brother is progressing too fast, and we can’t keep up. We even struggle to see his back. It’s better to give up early on some things rather than unnecessarily trouble Big Brother, to maintain our bond as fellow disciples."
"Foolishness."
Zhao Ge scolded sharply, "Meng De passed on to you the methods of evolution, provided you with gene potions, major medicines, treasures abundantly, and even shared Dragon meat with you. Not thinking of making progress, let alone repaying it, and already being so timid. Your minds are in disarray at the thought of retreat; how can you achieve great things in the future?"
"I intended to match you with Meng De, but you are so disappointing. Where is the temperament of a Martial Artist? If you can’t compete for a moment, then vie for a lifetime. If your determination wavers, then marry off early tomorrow, leave Zhao’s Martial Arts Hall, leave Sanyang City, so as not to waste Meng De’s heartfelt cultivation. Truly weak and ineffectual. Shou Hou, next time Meng De comes back, don’t notify them. I will accompany Meng De on an interdimensional journey."
After saying this, Zhao Ge angrily strode away.
Seeing their father storm off in anger, Rong Niang’s face paled with fright, and Zhao Qian nearly fell down, her legs giving way beneath her.
If they were really driven out of the Martial Arts Hall and left Sanyang City, it would truly be the end of all their aspirations.
However, at this moment, Li Yi was unaware of these matters. He had once again returned to Ghost Street, and this time, his transportation to and from Ghost Street was personally arranged by Meng Fanxing, who as a Yin God, drove him there, saving Li Yi much trouble.
It seems the Meng Family has started to learn the art of flattery.
Ghost Street was now empty and deserted, without any Vengeful Ghosts wandering around; only ghost soldiers were stationed along the streets, making it eerily quiet.
"Meng Fanxing, I want you to have Yin Horses ready on Ghost Street right after I leave. As soon as someone mentions my name, allow them through immediately and escort them to the City Lord Mansion in Sanyang City. As for others who stray into Ghost Street by mistake, just drive them away," Li Yi instructed.
"Rest assured, Mr. Li, I will make the arrangements," Meng Fanxing said respectfully.
"Also, inform those four ghost gods and tell them to find me the best Netherworld Artifact available. It will be of great use to me," Li Yi added.
Apart from life span, which was cheap in the Four Seas and Eight Continents, the most valuable thing was Netherworld Artifacts that could harm the soul. However, they had not yet realized their true value and only handed the Hanging Man Spear and such Netherworld Artifacts to ghost soldiers for eliminating Vengeful Ghosts; in truth, the greatest use of Netherworld Artifacts was to slay souls.
But the Hanging Man Spear was not among the top-tier Netherworld Artifacts. The last time Li Yi used it to stab and kill a Spirit Power Realm expert’s soul, the spear had become blunt and was no longer sharp.
This time, Li Yi wanted to find a better Netherworld Artifact.
Meng Fanxing glanced at the Netherworld Artifacts in the hands of the ghost soldiers and Ghost Generals and said, "Since Mr. Li has requested it, I will ensure that the ghost gods find the most formidable Netherworld Artifact in the Four Seas and Eight Continents. If we can’t find one, we’ll have to make one. However, when I previously ordered the ghost soldiers and ghost slaves to clean up a collapsed underground palace, we found a ghost axe left by the Yin God you had slain. This Netherworld Artifact, the ghost axe, is superior to the spear. Mr. Li can temporarily make use of that."
"Where is it? Bring it to me," Li Yi immediately said.
The Yin God Meng Fanxing promptly summoned a Yin General, issued the command, and not long after, a huge axe with an ethereal color was brought over. This massive axe was nearly ten meters tall, making ordinary people appear somewhat diminutive in front of it.
"It seems a bit too large, the size isn’t quite suitable. This was meant for the body of a Yin God. Mr. Li, I apologize for my shortsightedness," Meng Fanxing said, remorseful for his oversight.
Li Yi did not speak but instead waved his hand, and silver Gang Qi interwove, sparkling and shining. It then transformed into a giant hand that grasped the huge Netherworld Artifact and effortlessly swung it a few times. Feeling that it posed no problem to control, he then said, "Not bad, it’s usable. For now, we’ll make do with this ghost axe. Remember, find a better Netherworld Artifact as soon as possible."
Afterward, he stored the Netherworld Artifact in his storage Magic Artifact and then swiftly rode a Yin Horse in another direction out of Ghost Street.
Meng Fanxing respectfully watched Li Yi leave, and it was only after Li Yi had completely disappeared that he finally sighed with relief.
Although Li Yi appeared easy to get along with, Meng Fanxing had not forgotten that Li Yi was capable of annihilating ghost gods with a single punch. As a Yin God himself, Meng Fanxing could be eradicated with a mere gesture, so he dared not be careless. Otherwise, his own death would be a minor concern compared to bringing disaster upon the Meng Family. After all, the Meng Family had already had some disputes with Li Yi,
Should there be another mistake, the next time they meet, the Meng Family might be obliterated simply because the Family Head Meng Daoxian blinked before Li Yi, showing disrespect.
However, Li Yi was not so petty. He would not exterminate a whole family over a trivial matter.
Riding a Yin Horse.
Following the guidance of blood, Li Yi quickly left Ghost Street and reemerged in the hazardous zone. However, the level of danger in the hazardous zone had significantly decreased, as during the day away, Zhao Lingfu, who was a Soul Realm Cultivator, and the two mutant beasts Niu Niu and Good Wings had collaborated, along with Lan Ji controlling the Thunder Warplane, to annihilate all nearby Extraordinary Creatures.
And this extermination effort was still ongoing, giving no quarter to the Extraordinary Creatures.
"I remember at this time, it should be daylight, so why is the sky so dark?" Li Yi raised his head to see a dim and dusk-like sky, with the sun shining like a dim light bulb, unable to bring much light.
Even the temperature felt icy cold. Li Yi exhaled, and his breath instantly turned into a cold fog, with thick ice forming on the surrounding ground.
"A Sky Tipping phenomenon?" He deeply furrowed his brow.
It seemed that Yang Wei hadn’t been wrong; the Sky Tipping incident would occur within these few days.
However, with the pollution of cosmic energy still present on Earth, the Yin Horse galloped only for a brief moment before it deteriorated and could no longer maintain its form, collapsing into mud and decayed bones with a mournful cry.
Li Yi immediately took out a war chariot, which he had snatched from World Number Six, from his storage Magic Artifact. He drove it and flew low, heading towards Tianchang City.
On his way, he did not see a single Cultivator, nor a Fierce Beast, or an Extraordinary Creature.
Passing through a deserted corner of the city, Li Yi felt as if he had entered an apocalyptic world.
"With such a phenomenon, the investigation agency has probably already put the entire city on lockdown. Regardless of what happens during the Sky Tipping incident, the first priority is to ensure the city’s safety." Having experienced the first Sky Tipping incident himself, he was well aware of these procedures.
