After the Skyfall

Chapter 790 Distributing Dao Artifacts
Although the Divine Wood Crimson Gold Furnace is a good thing, it can only be brought to its full value in the hands of the Heavenly Craftsman. Therefore, Li Yi is not stingy. If the Heavenly Craftsman can continue to work so hard, he would be happy to give him the Divine Wood Crimson Gold Furnace.

"Since you are in charge of the Divine Wood Crimson Gold Furnace, Daoist, you might as well do me another favor. I have a celestial warship that is extremely useful, but the material is of poor quality. I hope you can help me upgrade it."

At this moment, Li Yi thought of something again and immediately released the immortal warship from the Crimson Gold Five Elements Bracelet.

A flash of light followed.

A futuristic, streamlined warship appeared outside the main hall.

"What an exquisite flying object."

The Celestial Craftsman was immediately captivated. As a master craftsman, he instantly realized that this immortal warship was of extremely high value.

Li Yi said, "It is equipped with an artificial intelligence called Hong Ji. To put it simply, it is similar to a spirit. In addition, I hope that you will integrate this cross-world machine and the Tianyi Palace into it. If you have any questions about this immortal warship, you can ask the artificial intelligence inside."

He then handed over the interdimensional machine, the three strange objects, and the Tianyi Palace to the Taoist Tiangong.

He needs a warship that can carry tens of thousands of people and can cross borders at any time, which will facilitate his subsequent actions.

Although the Immortal Dao warship is technologically advanced, it is easily destroyed due to material limitations. However, if it were made of red gold, it would be an indestructible mobile fortress.

"Taiyi, what a great idea! And it is indeed feasible. Give me some time, and I will definitely refine it."

The Taoist Master Tiangong's eyes lit up, and his mind was immediately opened. He immediately accepted the task.

Li Yi nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Daoist Master. Please let me know as soon as it's ready."

After Tiangong Daoren agreed, he immediately left the city lord's mansion and entered the immortal warship to begin his research. Li Yi also instructed Hong Ji to grant him access to assist Tiangong Daoren in completing the upgrade.

After dealing with this matter, Li Yi looked at the others and said, "The fairies have helped me along the way and have made great contributions. Now that I have completed the forging of my Crimson Gold Dao Artifacts, and since I will soon be returning to Earth to fight against the strong from other worlds, I plan to give each of the fairies four Crimson Gold Dao Artifacts and the rest of you two each."

As he spoke, he casually waved his hand, and countless rays of crimson-gold light flew out from the crimson-gold Qiankun bag, transforming into divine weapons that floated in the hall. A quick glance revealed at least several hundred of them, each with its own unique style, allowing people to choose freely.

"There are so many crimson gold artifacts."

Xiang Xiangzi's breath hitched. Although she knew that the Heavenly Craftsman had crafted many Dao artifacts for Li Yi, she did not know the exact number. Now that this small part of the iceberg had been revealed, even she, who came from a major sect, could not help but be shocked.

“Each one surpasses the inherited Dao artifacts.” Xuan Yuezi was also taken aback.

"Since Taiyi is so generous, then I won't stand on ceremony." After a brief moment of surprise, Xiang Xiangzi licked her rosy lips, her beautiful eyes darting around before immediately locking onto the four crimson gold artifacts.

A crimson gold sword, a crimson gold armor, a crimson gold flying needle, and a crimson gold rope.

Xuan Yuezi glanced at Li Yi and, without any hesitation, chose a crimson gold divine sword, a crimson gold armor, a crimson gold gourd, and a crimson gold robe.

Compared to Xiang Xiangzi, her choice of the Crimson Gold Dao Artifact leaned towards a more conservative approach.

“I followed Taiyi across boundaries, but I have not achieved anything yet, so I will only choose two things.”

Consort Yun spoke with a hint of shame. She was well aware of her own limitations. Xiang Xiangzi and Xuan Yuezi had made great contributions and were able to obtain four crimson gold artifacts. She did not think she could compare with them.

Therefore, she only chose one sword and one suit of armor.

Miao Huizi, standing to the side, was also a little embarrassed, but considering that she had only recently been resurrected and was penniless, and that she might have to fight powerful enemies again, she shamelessly chose two pieces of crimson gold artifacts: a sword and a suit of armor. As for this debt, she could only make up for it slowly in the future.

Li Yi then added, "It's time to gather the other senior cultivators here. I'll leave this matter to the goddess."

"It's a small matter. I'll go and gather everyone here at the City Lord's Mansion right away."

The goddess smiled slightly, stood up, bowed to Li Yi, and indicated her willingness to obey Li Yi's orders.

She then leaped into the air.

Not long after.

Cultivators from all over Chijin Mountain flocked to this place. They already knew that Li Yi had returned, so they were all waiting for Li Yi to summon them.

Soon, more than ten cultivators, including Shenxu Daoren, Yuanyang Daoren, and Qingfengzi, arrived and gathered together.

In addition, three Mahayana cultivators from the Xuanxian Continent were summoned to the scene.

These three people are Luo Bing, Fei Xue, and Master Xuanzhen.

However, Li Yi remembered that he had recruited five Mahayana cultivators on the battlefield and sent them to the Wilderness World for refuge before crossing over. Although one of them was killed by the Heavenly Moon Demon King, there should still be four people left. How come there are only three now?

Could it be that a cultivator in the Mahayana stage died halfway through his journey?
These three Mahayana cultivators were not Li Yi's followers, but were forced to acknowledge him as their master. Therefore, they were very reserved here, fearing that if they offended that Taoist, they would be killed on the spot.

After learning about the forces behind Li Yi, they now both respect and fear him.

The people of Xuanxian Continent never imagined that Li Yi had secretly amassed such a large force without making a fuss, and that this was only a part of it.

"This humble Taoist has met Taiyi."

After arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, they all bowed to Li Yi, who was in the main seat, but their attention was soon drawn to the crimson gold artifacts inside the mansion.

All sorts of crimson gold artifacts radiated divine light, their terrifying power subtly spreading out, stirring the minds of every cultivator.

"Is this the crimson gold Dao artifact that the Celestial Craftsman has refined these past few days? It is indeed extraordinary. With such a Dao artifact, what is there to worry about in achieving the Great Dao?" Many cultivators' breathing quickened. Even the three Mahayana stage cultivators from the Xuanxian Continent couldn't help but exchange shocked glances.

Is this a magical weapon?

No, that's not right. The material and power are already infinitely close to those of a celestial artifact, but it's still one step short.

This gap is likely due to the insufficient strength of the refiner, who was unable to allow the final transformation to take place. If a true immortal were to refine it, inscribing a grand array and nurturing it with immortal artifacts, it would definitely be able to transform into a true immortal artifact.

"Hundreds of top-tier Dao artifacts that are infinitely close to immortal artifacts, and they are still being produced continuously, plus these cultivators who are comparable to great demons." Thinking of this, Luo Bing, Fei Xue, and Xuan Zhen fell silent.

With such power, he could kill anyone below the True Immortal level.

Li Yi gestured and said, "Esteemed senior cultivators, there's no need for such formalities. Please take your seats."

Upon hearing this, all the cultivators found a place to sit down.

However, the three cultivators at the Mahayana stage stood silently in the corner, sensing that Li Yi was about to begin preparing for something big.

Li Yi slowly said, "I promised all the senior cultivators that if the Crimson Gold Dao Artifact is successfully forged, everyone will have a share. Now it is time to fulfill my previous promise. However, before that, I have something to discuss."

He then briefly recounted the events on Earth.

"I would like to ask all of you seniors to follow me and travel with me across realms to Earth to fight against the powerful enemies of the Demon God Realm, the Dark World, and the Xuanxian Continent, and help me defeat them and restore peace to my homeland. Of course, I will not treat you seniors unfairly. If you are willing to go and help, each of you can choose two Crimson Gold Dao Artifacts. If you are not willing, you can choose one Crimson Gold Dao Artifact to stay on Crimson Gold Mountain and cultivate in peace."

He didn't hide anything and directly stated his purpose.

Upon hearing this, all the cultivators wore solemn expressions.

Immediately, Daoist Shenxu spoke up: "I have spoken with several fellow Daoists from the Xuanxian Continent and know some of the situation. Now that my strength has been restored, and Taiyi is in trouble, I will do my best to help without hesitation."

After he finished speaking, he immediately took away two crimson gold artifacts to show his stance.

"Since crossing the realm, my life has been entrusted to Taiyi. It's just a matter of fighting and killing others, a trivial matter. I am willing to go with Taiyi." Yuanyang Daoist was also very decisive. He bowed to Li Yi and also took two red gold Dao artifacts.

"That's what I think too." Qingfengzi spoke briefly, and without the slightest hesitation, he selected two crimson gold artifacts to protect himself.

Everyone expressed their opinions, and no one refused.

They were all cultivators who had been practicing Taoism for hundreds of years. From the day they crossed realms, they knew very well that Li Yi was helping them escape the world of Dharma decline and exchange it for the opportunity to rebuild the Great Tao. Naturally, they were willing to risk their lives for Li Yi.

Even if Li Yi hadn't given them the Crimson Gold Dao Artifact, they would still have followed him.

Moreover, they believed themselves to be strong and no weaker than others, and with two crimson gold artifacts in hand, it was hard to imagine any possibility of them losing.

"Very well, then, I'll leave the rest to you seniors." Li Yi bowed to everyone at this moment.

Although he had the Sacrifice Curse and his strength was enough to subdue everyone, Li Yi would not use these methods unless absolutely necessary. It would be best to appeal to their emotions and reason with them.

Upon seeing this, all the cultivators rose to return the greeting.

They all knew very well that Li Yi was no longer the same as before, and his strength was unmatched in the Three Flowers Realm. They dared not act like seniors.

Li Yi then looked at the three Mahayana stage cultivators in the corner.

“Luo Bing, Fei Xue, Master Xuanzhen,” he said slowly.

"Yes." The three men were startled and hurriedly stepped forward.

Li Yi said, "I know your identities very well. You can't go back to the Xuanxian Continent, and you can't break the Sacrifice Curse. I don't want to waste any more words. From now on, follow me and fight for me. I can forgive past grievances and treat you as one of my own."

After saying that, he waved his hand, and three crimson gold divine swords flew out of the hall and landed in front of the three people.

After all, they were three Mahayana stage warriors, and Li Yi still needed to use them at this time. Moreover, he would need a few people to provide intelligence in the future fight against the Xuanxian Continent, so he was willing to spare their lives.

Luo Bing, Fei Xue, and Master Xuanzhen all knew perfectly well that they had no choice at all.

The Xuanxian Continent has already regarded them as traitors. The four of them left the battlefield and came to the Wilderness World for refuge. Another fellow Daoist was ambushed and killed by the people of the Xuanxian Continent during the retreat.

As cultivators in the Mahayana stage, they knew too much about the Xuanxian Continent. No one would trust them to join Li Yi or Earth. Therefore, they had to die. Only the dead could prevent the information from being leaked.

Since there's no going back, we can only go down this path to the bitter end.

and.

Li Yi was indeed generous; he wouldn't be willing to reward the immortals of the Xuanxian Continent who risked their lives on the battlefield with such a treasure.

Immediately, they drew their crimson-gold divine swords, bowed to Li Yi, and said, "We are willing to follow you from now on."

"Very good." Li Yi nodded slightly.

He didn't trust these people, but it didn't matter. Among so many powerful cultivators, they could only be swept up in the fight for themselves, with no other choice.
