Chapter 587: Chapter 419: Crossing Boundaries to Escape

"Peh, the cultivators of the Xuanxian Continent are truly full of malice. They’re even more wicked than Earthlings. It’s one thing they couldn’t accept defeat, but to think that a powerful Divinity Transformation practitioner would resort to this trick to want me dead. And to think they still call themselves cultivators. Are they all cultivating the Dao of Heartlessness? Not a hint of righteousness or morality in them."

Li Yi always thought Earthlings were bad, but he never expected the cultivators of the Xuanxian Continent to be just as bad.

They even tampered with a Low Grade Treasure.

If he accidentally fell into the trap, he might really be killed by the Luminous Mirror controlled by a wisp of Primordial Spirit Power from Taixian Weng, as Sword Coin’s residual thought had mentioned. By then, not only would he lose his life, but he would also have to return the things.

The thought alone was nauseating.

"You don’t have the right to criticize others either. You’re not simple. You gambled your assets and heavily fleeced those cultivators. How could they let you go? I estimate they will find an opportunity to kill you tonight. If you don’t run, you’ll definitely die a horrible death staying at the Golden Academy," the residual thought in the Sword Coin said again.

"I knew they’d eventually make a move against me, but to act today... Are they not even planning to pretend?" Li Yi frowned.

He didn’t argue with this statement because he had already sensed more than one killing intent with a soul premonition when he left the Magic Battle Platform.

"You may look safe now, but in reality, you are like a turtle in a jar, making it hard to escape. Once you leave the boundaries of the Golden Academy, your death would only come quicker," the residual thought in the Sword Coin said with a cold laugh. "Playing clever tricks and gaining benefits will lead to heavy losses. It may have been satisfying when you schemed against them, but you can’t afford the backlash afterward."

"And you don’t have any backing at the Golden Academy. If you can take advantage to flee to Beihuai City and find Merchant Lord Xiu Xiang, you can still save your life. But the path from the Golden Academy to Beihuai City is impossible for you to cross. Even if you bought a Thunderbolt Fighter, it wouldn’t help. Don’t underestimate the means of Divinity Transformation cultivators."

Li Yi’s eyes shifted slightly: "I know I can’t escape, so I never planned to leave the Golden Academy. I’m thinking of leaving by crossing realms, heading to the End of Dharma Cultivation World. They can cultivate immortals, and I can cultivate too. Someday when I’ve achieved cultivation, I’ll come back to settle the score."

"That’s a method, but you’d better hurry. Otherwise, it won’t be easy to say later," the residual thought in the Sword Coin reminded.

"It’s no use rushing me. My delivery hasn’t arrived, I can’t leave without a cross-border machine."

Li Yi said, then took out a Treasure Pill as beautiful as red jade and said, "You’ve seen a lot. Help me identify if there’s anything wrong with this Spirit Blood Pill. Is it safe to consume?"

"There’s nothing wrong with the Spirit Blood Pill. Taixian Weng didn’t expect you to win his treasure at first, so he didn’t tamper with it," the residual thought in the Sword Coin said. "Furthermore, the other party generously added a lot of precious Spiritual Medicine. According to the Xuanxian Continent classification, this is already a Mid Grade Spirit Pill. As for its effects, I don’t know. You’ll have to try it yourself to find out."

Li Yi examined the elixir, which looked like a ruby. He sniffed it, and indeed there was an intoxicating medicinal aroma. It also contained abundant Essence of Qi and Blood, all refined without impurities, much better than the meat he had before.

He tried consuming a Spirit Blood Pill.

It melted instantly in his mouth, disappearing in a flash.

Soon, a gentle medicinal power began to bud from within, while the immense essence of Qi and Blood started permeating every part of his body.

The sensation was entirely different from usual food consumption.

This spirit pill seemed to act directly on his body, requiring no deliberate absorption, as his body automatically embraced and integrated it.

Unbelievable.

Is this what cultivators normally consume?

Li Yi widened his eyes, feeling his body immediately restored as his Divine Bloodline also grew, his physique continued transforming and strengthening, and the effects remained gentle and non-injurious.

And that was just from a single pill.

If he consumed all three hundred Spirit Blood Pills, who knows what level his body might transform into.

However, Li Yi did not have the time to study this further. He then took out another Spiritual Artifact, the Xuan Turtle Armor, and attempted to bind it with blood again, refusing to believe all Spiritual Artifacts had owners.

Unexpectedly, the High-Grade Spiritual Artifact Xuan Turtle Armor had no issue and successfully bonded with him.

The Xuan Turtle Armor transformed into a ray of light and directly entered Li Yi’s body, coiling around his Sea of Consciousness like a small jade turtle, lying still. But with a thought, his Divine Sense channeling Cosmic Energy into it, the jade turtle would turn into an armor draped over him, providing astounding defensive power.

Though Li Yi had the Jiao Long Armor, having another defensive artifact was always beneficial.

"Everything scavenged from Lin Caiyi had no issues. The Profound Light Shield and that set of formations could both successfully bond," Li Yi concluded after testing them out.

He initially wanted to continue studying these cultivator items, but the alert sounded in the Cultivation House: You have a new package delivered, please head outside the Cultivation House to sign it off, student Li Yi in Section C, number 64.

"The items I previously bought from the Academy Mall have arrived."

Li Yi was pleased and immediately opened the door.

He saw a transport ship hovering at the doorway, with robots carrying box after box over. These boxes contained Transcendent Nutrient Fluids. Additionally, in the sky, there was a Thunderbolt Fighter. But what interested him the most was a three-meter-high pyramid-shaped machine.

Cross-border machine?

Li Yi’s heart skipped a beat upon seeing this. It seemed the efficiency of the Golden Academy was fast. Things were delivered soon after purchase.

He quickly signed for them, stored all the items in the Storage Magical Artifact, and instructed Lan Ji to invade and take control of the Thunderbolt Fighter.

However, during his signing period, Li Yi suddenly sensed a mysterious soul premonition, feeling numerous Divine Senses scanning him with hostility, making him feel prickly all over and deeply uncomfortable.

Yet looking around, there was not a soul in sight.

"It’s the Golden Core Cultivators who have noticed you. It appears Taixian Weng isn’t planning to handle it himself and let his juniors finish the task, so he can deflect responsibility later. I overestimated the patience of the opponent. It looks like they don’t want to wait until tonight. Truly, there’s no end to the world’s oddities. As shameless as I’ve seen many, there’s still someone even more shameless than the Earth Prisoners," the residual thought in the Sword Coin expressed some surprise.

Li Yi didn’t hesitate. After signing for the package, he immediately returned indoors.

Once inside, he took out the cross-border machine and the coordinates of the End of Dharma Cultivation World, letting Lan Ji remote control the cross-border machine to understand its usage.

Under Lan Ji’s guidance, Li Yi quickly grasped it.

He then connected the coordinate box to the cross-border machine, allowing it to read and record this coordinate.

Once recorded, the cross-border machine could always retain this coordinate. Next time you want to cross realms, it won’t be as troublesome. Additionally, the cross-border machine has various modes, such as a continual cross-border gate, a one-time cross-border gate, and setting a schedule to reopen it at a specified coordinate world in six months or a year’s time.

"Open the cross-border gate to the End of Dharma Cultivation World, one-time mode, cross-border gate size six meters high, three meters wide." Li Yi calculated that this size would allow Good Wings to pass smoothly.

He didn’t want to leave his mutant beast at the Golden Academy. If he left, then Good Wings’ life would be in danger, so he planned to take it along.

Then he took out the three Miracles.

The incomplete Sword Coin, the broken mutant bone, and the Seven-Colored Stone.

These three items were placed in three respective gaps.

Quickly, the machine started operating, rapidly absorbing the energies of these three items, converging into one as an astounding energy fluctuation spread out. The intensity increased, making the surrounding space appear to ripple.

The next moment.

An astonishing energy beam shot out from the center of the cross-border machine, instantly projecting a glowing gate before his eyes.

Beyond the gate was a scene of green hills and verdant lands, with curling smoke in the distance, resembling a landscape painting.

"Good Wings, cross over now." Li Yi shouted immediately.

Good Wings outside the Cultivation House heard the command, let out a cry, and immediately flapped its wings, shattering the Cultivation House as it charged directly towards the cross-border gate, crossing over into the other world in less than a second.

This scene startled the Golden Core cultivators secretly watching.

"Damn, this Li Yi intends to escape across realms; he opened a cross-border gate."

"Good grief, I almost got fooled again. I thought he was hiding in the Cultivation House for cultivation after leaving the Magic Battle Platform, but he was planning an escape instead. We can’t wait for the night. Even if it means offending the Golden Academy, we must stop him."

"No more waiting for the night, act now."

With this exchange of Divine Sense communication, four figures turned into streams of light rushing forward, their flying swords breaking through as they tried to destroy Li Yi’s cross-border machine.

"Have they really come?" Li Yi’s soul warned him, making him twitch uncontrollably.

"What are you Golden Core cultivators up to? Do you think my Golden Academy is defenseless?" Wu Zuo Hua’s voice suddenly rang out. Recently, he had a premonition that something would happen to Li Yi, so he had been patrolling nearby. It turned out his instincts were correct.

A long howl echoed across the sky. Wu Zuo Hua unleashed his Martial God form, akin to a Divine General descending, risking injury to forcibly intercept a flying sword, blocking a Golden Core cultivator.

"Scumbags, this grand master Wang Hu is here; come fight!" A golden figure tore through the air and arrived abruptly, punching at a Golden Core cultivator.

"Damn it."

That Golden Core cultivator had to stop and use a defensive artifact to block the attack. Though unharmed, he missed the best opportunity to stop Li Yi.

Despite this, two Golden Core cultivators still advanced.

Li Yi quickly used the Storage Magical Artifact to retrieve the cross-border machine and rushed through the gate, avoiding the opponents’ flying sword attacks while the cross-border gate was still open.

"Comrade, assist me. I’ll cross realms to slay this little thief," Zhang Yihua proposed, feeling indignant at the foiled plan, transmitting the words through Divine Sense.

"Alright."

Another Golden Core cultivator didn’t hesitate, immediately channeling mana to Zhang Yihua.

At this moment, Zhang Yihua’s escape speed surged, making it through the cross-border gate before it vanished, disappearing from everyone’s view.

The target was gone.

Everyone halted their actions.

Did Li Yi escape across realms?

However, a Golden Core cultivator pursued him across.
