Chapter 813: Chapter 593: Return

Ten days passed quickly.

During this period, Li Yi could clearly feel the incense fire belief power within him growing day by day. Unfortunately, he couldn’t fully harness this power in a short time and could only temporarily let it go to waste.

However, Xiang Xiangzi greatly benefited during this time. In just ten days, she had completely mastered the form shaped by the Seven-Colored Stone, and with the help of incense power, her Primordial Spirit was about to restore to its peak.

Seeing this, Li Yi felt a sense of relief.

So at noon on this day, he planned to open the Cross-border Gate, leave this world, and return to Earth.

Upon hearing this news, his father Li Jiye immediately set aside everything and came to Wuji Hall to see Li Yi off.

"Yi, are you leaving today? Now that the situation has stabilized, you should enjoy this world for a while. I even thought of finding some lovely wives and concubines for you here, so you can start a family in this world."

Li Jiye said, "You also know how problematic the marriage market is on Earth, with huge dowries, making it very difficult to settle down."

"What do you think of those Golden Eyes Guards? Is there anyone you fancy? If so, you could take them as your wives or concubines."

Clearly, having been an emperor in this world for several years, Li Jiye had adapted well, and many of his beliefs had changed. He even wanted to arrange concubines for Li Yi.

However, Li Yi refused, "Let’s forget about that. I need to focus on cultivation and don’t want to be distracted. There’s an ongoing Sky Tipping event on Earth, with dangers emerging constantly. If I don’t enhance my strength soon, I might face deadly situations in the future."

"Now that I’m crossing back, is there anything you want me to handle for you, Father?"

Li Jicheng recalled, "Nothing much. Since I’ve been away for years, most people think I’m dead, which saves a lot of trouble. But if you happen to meet Uncle Biao, tell him I’m still alive and currently the emperor in this Incense Fire God world. If he’s willing to come, please bring him here, Yi."

"After all, when I crossed over, I told him that if I made it big, I wouldn’t forget him."

"Alright, I’ll remember that," Li Yi nodded.

Li Jiye continued, "As for your mother’s matter, put it on hold. Don’t be in a rush to go to World 36; it’s dangerous there. Wait until I’m ready to act. I’m now combining incense power with cultivation techniques and progressing rapidly. It won’t take long for me to reach the Transcendance Tribulation Stage and become a powerful Incense Fire Cultivator."

"I’m well aware of that world’s dangers and won’t act recklessly. However, the cultivation technique I provided you only reaches the Transcendance Tribulation Stage; I’ll see if I can get the subsequent techniques," Li Yi said.

The Nine Revolutions Immortal Technique is a cultivation method from the Xuanxian Continent. He recalled previously entrusting Senior Cang Erzi to seek further techniques. By now, Senior Cang Erzi should have been in the Xuanxian World for a while. He hoped for some results.

"Having the technique would be ideal, but if not, it’s fine. The Xuanxian Continent is strong, and it’s unwise to make enemies with them. Safety is most important, especially given Earth’s current state. Each day is unpredictable. The fact that we, as father and son, can meet in this world is already a great fortune."

Li Jiye sighed.

Though he hadn’t returned to Earth to see, he could infer the situation from Li Yi’s accounts.

Hence, he didn’t recommend Li Yi stay on Earth. It would be better to bring everyone to this Incense World when there’s a chance.

This world, though incomplete in cultivation, allows for Incense Fire Divine paths, and nature’s spiritual energy is abundant here. Cultivators can focus and achieve immortality, and with the world under control, it offers everyone a prosperous and stable life.

"I understand your intentions, Father. Once things are settled, I’ll stay in this world long-term," Li Yi said.

He had planned to cultivate earnestly in this world for a while.

Once he harnesses the incense power, achieves Three Flowers Gathering at the Top and Five Qi Chaoyuan, he’ll travel across worlds again without being restricted by others.

"It’s good that you have such thoughts," Li Jiye felt gratified.

Li Yi showed a maturity beyond his years. Though sometimes impulsive, his steady nature was ultimately beneficial.

The two chatted in Wuji Palace for an hour.

By now, the time was right, and Li Yi took out the Cross-border Machine from the Five Elements Bracelet.

Though one Miracle, the Seven-Colored Stone, was left to Xiang Xiangzi for her new body, he still had other Miracles. Among them, Dragon Scale and the World Heart Gem were complete items, in addition to three fragments.

A finger resembling white jade, a piece of broken wood, and a Sword Coin.

However, one Miracle, used in past crossings, was becoming dim and might break after another use. But it was fine since he remembered the Golden Academy planning to give Wu the Taoist a complete item.

If he could retrieve it this time, Li Yi would have three complete Miracles, eliminating any constraints in world-crossing.

He placed the dim Miracle into the Cross-border Machine, along with the Dragon Scale and World Heart Gem.

With three Miracles powering it.

In just a moment, a terrifying energy gathered and created an energy storm. This storm could easily wipe out less powerful Evolvers.

"Using the high energy of Miracles to forcibly open the wormhole gate, is this the Earth’s new cross-border technique?" Li Jiye couldn’t help but marvel at the sight.

Earth’s technology had advanced to this degree.

Li Yi explained, "The hardest part of crossing worlds is the high energy requirement. Currently, only complete Miracles can meet this need, and it’s best to use three to avoid rendering any one Miracle dormant for three months. More quantity allows for shared loads, preventing impacts."

As his voice fell.

A beam of energy, brilliant to the extreme, suddenly shot out and struck mid-air.

The terrifying energy twisted the void, opening a wormhole, and thus a cross-dimensional gate slowly formed before them.

At first, the other end of the gate was an abyss of darkness, like it connected to the cold universe, but soon, as the cross-dimensional machine adjusted itself and recorded Earth’s coordinates, the darkness was quickly replaced by light.

The dense and polluted cosmic energy from Earth’s side spread forth, where danger and opportunity coexisted, abandoned cities and primitive forests intertwined, revealing a special and brand-new world before their eyes.

"The cross-dimensional gate won’t hold for long. Father, Immortal, I’ll take my leave first." Upon seeing the cross-dimensional gate open, Li Yi wasted no time, immediately shutting down the cross-dimensional machine and storing it into the Five Elements Bracelet.

Then the Xiangyun appeared beneath his feet, and he instantly vanished from his original spot, rushing through the cross-dimensional gate to a certain place on Earth.

Immortal Xiang Xiangzi waved goodbye.

Instead, Li Jiye glanced at the familiar yet strange corner of Earth, a surge of impulse welling in his heart, longing to cross realms and return, to see how Tianchang City was, to see if his old relatives and friends were still alive.

After all, Earth was his home.

Yet, reason stopped him.

He should return, but now was not the time. As this world still held many responsibilities for him, with countless achievements awaiting, once he was prepared, he would cross realms to return.

Soon.

With the loss of energy sustaining it, the cross-dimensional gate swiftly closed.

At this moment, Li Jiye withdrew his gaze, then bowed to Xiang Xiangzi, saying, "Henceforth I must trouble the Immortal to temporarily assume the State Preceptor’s position, receive the incense, and assist me in achieving great deeds."

Xiang Xiangzi, however, replied calmly, "This Immortal recognizes only Taiyi. Unless there’s a tremendous matter, I ask the Emperor not to disturb me at Wuji Palace. However, having promised Taiyi to help oversee the Capital, should anything major arise within, I can intervene, but beyond the Capital is beyond my duty."

She is a Tri-Floral Realm expert, having cultivated for centuries, indifferent to whether Li Jiye is Li Yi’s father.

If one were to care about this and help that, getting mired in various interpersonal exchanges, then one is no cultivator.

"That will suffice." Li Jiye nodded slightly at the words.

With this Tri-Floral Realm expert overseeing the Capital, he felt free to pursue many tasks.

"Please, Emperor." Xiang Xiangzi indicated, surprisingly opting to dismiss him.

To one unaware, she might seem the Emperor here.

Observing this, Li Jiye couldn’t help but smile, finding no issue, he respectfully performed a courtesy before leaving.

These cultivators are indeed fascinating.

Towards Yi, they are passionate, and obedient, yet to others they remain indifferent and aloof.

In fact, Xiang Xiangzi’s attitude is already quite good; towards Wu the Taoist and Tu Daoist, she is vicious, resorting to physical force, frequently kicking them away, unable to argue against her, they are helplessly bullied.

Meanwhile.

Back on Earth, Li Yi noticeably felt the incense power on him like water without a source, rapidly drying up and dissipating.

Upon leaving the Incense Fire God world, the incense fire belief power evidently wouldn’t last long, it would eventually vanish entirely.

However, gauging from the dissipation rate, Li Yi felt he could maintain it temporarily for a while longer.

"Lan Ji." Li Yi then took out his phone and called.

As long as there’s signal on Earth, AI Lan Ji can instantly make contact.

"Master, I’m here." Quickly, Lan Ji’s voice came through the phone.

"Determine my current location." Hearing the familiar voice, Li Yi felt reassured.

"Current location: Tianqing City, two hundred kilometers away from the danger zone." Lan Ji swiftly confirmed Li Yi’s location via satellite.

"Every time there’s this much deviation when crossing dimensions?" Li Yi recalled departing from Golden Academy yet returning two hundred kilometers away at Tianqing City.

Perhaps next time he might not even be within the country.

Though unavoidable, spatial positioning naturally has deviations; thankfully, Li Yi wasn’t sent deep underground, which was already fortunate.

Without further thought, a Xiangyun emerged beneath his feet, he then ascended skyward, after confirming the location, deciding to return to Golden Academy first.
