After the Skyfall

Chapter 882 All parties gather together
As news of Li Yi's cross-realm combat against the Demon God Realm spread within the Golden Academy, coupled with a series of actions such as the mobilization of personnel and weapons on Earth, everyone sensed the impending great war.

Even cultivators from the Xuanxian Continent knew about some of the situations here.

Although all the experts had evacuated Earth, it was impossible to bring everyone back to the Xuanxian Continent. Some people were left behind and infiltrated Earth. These cultivators disguised themselves as evolved beings and waited for an opportunity to gather intelligence about Earth.

Moreover, the Demon God Realm, which had invaded Earth, also made similar arrangements.

As enemies, how could they allow the evolved beings on Earth to continue developing? They naturally had ways to gather intelligence about Earth.

However, the Xuanxian Continent remained silent and made no response to Earth's desire for revenge against the Demon God Realm.

The great battle a year ago resulted in the loss of too many top cultivators, including several True Immortals. This completely extinguished their idea of ​​conquering Earth. Now that they have learned that the evolved beings on Earth are going to deal with the Demon God Realm, they are eager to sit back and watch the tigers fight, hoping that both sides will be severely injured.

Xuanxian's silence was something that the Earth's higher-ups could have predicted.

The cultivators of this world are notoriously cowardly and timid. At this critical juncture, how could they possibly risk going against the evolved beings on Earth again just to help the Demon God Realm?
Even if they all understand the principle of mutual dependence, who can be sure of the final outcome of this cross-border war?

After all, the Demon God Realm is extremely powerful, with a long history and profound foundation. Perhaps the evolved beings on Earth will suffer a crushing defeat.

It was precisely because of these thoughts that the Xuanxian Continent comfortably remained a bystander.

Meanwhile, the higher-ups on Earth are constantly monitoring the movements of these hostile worlds, including the Xuanxian Continent, the Dark World, and several other worlds connected to Earth.

After all, once cross-border operations begin, the possibility of other forces getting involved must be considered.

On the second day at Golden Academy.

One after another, futuristic warships emerged from the crossover gate, including not only capital ships but also numerous AI-controlled unmanned combat aircraft, transport planes, and more.

These warships, numbering at least several hundred in total, resembled a massive army poised to wage interstellar war.

"Star Destroyers from World Six, good heavens, have the Earth's leadership gone mad? Deploying twenty of them all at once, if they hear that a single shot can sink a continent, twenty of them would be enough to destroy a world."

Inside the Golden Academy, many students looked up at the fleet, feeling incredibly shocked. However, one of the evolved individuals, Sikong Yao, immediately recognized the models of these warships.

It was only after recognizing them that he understood just how insane these high-ranking officials on Earth really were.

However, before everyone could be shocked by the warship...

suddenly.

Five astonishing auras, accompanied by five thunder fighter jets, rapidly flew towards the Golden Academy. Some evolved beings could observe people and their auras, and they saw that the five soaring auras resembled a giant dragon, roaring towards them.

These five dragons of fortune, each a different color, represent the five directions. When they come together, it's as if the power of a great nation is pressing down on us, an invisible force that makes it almost impossible to breathe.

"It's a powerful expert from the military who specializes in Qi Luck Techniques!" A former evolved human suddenly became excited.

“Each of them is stronger than the Demon King. The Earth’s higher-ups have really done a lot in the past year or so. No wonder they didn’t object so strongly when Li Yi proposed cross-border warfare. It turns out they had been secretly preparing for the great war all along.” Someone was secretly shocked.

Five Thunder fighter jets hovered in the air above the Golden Academy.

The cockpit of the fighter jet opened, and five men with resolute faces, short hair, and tall, muscular figures jumped down from the sky.

They landed lightly on the ground, stood with their heads held high, their movements clean and efficient. Though they did not utter a word, they exuded a chilling aura that inspired awe.

Among these five people were Li Chengjun and Li Weiguo.

Although the other three had never been seen before, the aura they exuded was enough to prove that they were top-tier experts who had been honed through countless battles. If Li Yi hadn't insisted on fighting this cross-world war, they wouldn't have been urgently conscripted.

However, in addition to these five top military experts, dozens of transport ships flew in from the distant sky, each carrying a group of highly trained professionals.

These people were clearly sent by the Earth's higher-ups.

"These high-ranking officials are really good at hiding things. How come we didn't know anything about the experts they trained in which world before?" Someone said, both shocked and curious.

“The higher-ups have access to far more cross-dimensional coordinates. If we hadn’t lacked time, how could our homeland have been invaded by the enemy? Now that we’ve weathered the most difficult period, experts will emerge on Earth in an endless stream. In the future, it will be the enemy’s turn to be afraid,” the veteran evolved being said earnestly.

The others nodded in agreement.

Whether before or after the Tianqing incident, those at the top have always held the most resources and secrets.

While everyone continued to observe...

suddenly.

Streaks of light descended from the south, illuminating the entire sky with five-colored rays of light, revealing dozens of highly skilled cultivators arriving together. "Those are experts from the Tianchang City Dao Court, reinforcements invited by Li Yi from another world. They are all experts at the Three Flowers Realm, which corresponds to the Mahayana stage to the Immortal stage. I've heard that those at the peak of the Three Flowers Realm can kill True Immortals," said an evolved being named Li Shaoqing calmly.

He was also from Tianchang City and had worked with Li Yi before, so he knew a lot about the situation in Tianchang City.

“I know them. A year ago, during the Earth Defense Line operation, they were the ones who helped us repel the powerful enemy and kill one great demon after another,” said one of the evolved beings who had joined the Earth Defense Line.

At this moment, Consort Yun arrived with a group of cultivation experts. After receiving Li Yi's message via crane, she immediately began to gather everyone, and once everyone was present, they naturally rushed to the Golden Academy to reunite.

"It seems that Xiang Xiangzi and Xuan Yuezi have not arrived yet." Consort Yun sensed the presence but did not find any of her fellow disciples. Then, her gaze fell on a celestial warship not far away.

For some reason, she sensed the aura of other cultivators, and it was very powerful.

Inside the Immortal Path Warship at this moment.

The group of cultivators at the Great Perfection realm also noticed the situation outside.

"Oh, so they are disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect." Daoist Yuqing was somewhat surprised: "I didn't expect that Heavenly Venerable Taiyi would actually rescue so many cultivators and bring them to this world as well."

“This is a good thing. I heard from Hong Ji that the Heavenly Venerable Taiyi has also established a Dao Court on Earth and has the intention to rebuild the Daoist tradition. This is excellent.” The Taoist Xuanzhen stroked his beard and smiled.

Meeting fellow Daoists in a foreign land is naturally a joyous occasion.

Moreover, this also proves that Taiyi Tianzun is not the kind of person who abandons his followers after they have served their purpose. Those who follow him seem to be doing quite well, each possessing top-tier Dao artifacts and showing significant improvement in their strength and cultivation.

"Shouldn't we also go out and show our faces, and get to know the experts in this world?" someone suggested.

"Please be patient. We are new here and need to learn more about the situation. Moreover, we have just come from the world of Dharma decline, so it is best to recuperate and nurture our three flowers in the next few days. After all, we will soon be fighting against the demon and god realm."

"That makes sense."

However, while the people inside the Immortal Path warship were discussing this...

suddenly.

In another direction of the Golden Academy, it seemed as if a gate to another realm had suddenly opened, and then a terrifying surge of blood energy, carrying astonishing martial will, rushed into the sky above Earth, stirring up the winds and clouds of heaven and earth.

"It's the group of martial artists from the Martial Saint Continent. Leading them are Martial Saints Wu Tianji, Li Shenquan, and Jiang Daoxue, and there are seven other Martial Saint auras in total."

"Four more Martial Saints have arrived? Ji Wu has actually become a Martial Saint too. Am I seeing things? I teamed up with him when we were on the Earth's defense line. Back then, he could only deal with Great Demons."

"It seems that Ji Wu has broken through to the Martial Saint realm in the past year of seclusion. He must be the youngest Martial Saint on the Martial Saint Continent now." The evolved human who had served on Earth's defense line was astonished.

At this moment, Wu Tianji squinted, stroking his long black beard, and surveyed his surroundings: "There are so many experts. I haven't seen such a grand scene in many years."

"Haha, what a wonderful world! Powerful figures from all over the world have gathered here to fight across realms. Wu Tianji, you old bastard, you're really stingy. You only brought me here now. You deserve to die."

A burly, tall, bald martial saint laughed loudly, his voice shaking the void and awe-inspiring.

"As one of the Martial Saints of the Martial Saint Continent, I naturally have to think about the martial artists of the world. There were countless powerful enemies before, who came together. Ji Wu almost died in battle. If I had revealed the existence of the Martial Saint Continent in advance, would you still be alive now?" Wu Tianji said calmly. He had his own selfish reasons for not crossing over to come before.

If Earth is defeated, he will recall his disciple Ji Wu and never cross boundaries again.

Seven Martial Saints, along with a total of one hundred powerful figures from the Martial Saint Continent, crossed over to this realm. Their blood and qi were like dragons, and each of them had experienced countless battles. Their strength was no less than that of a great demon.

Their purpose in coming here is not simply to help Earth fight across dimensions, but also to seek a path forward, cultivate other methods, and find an opportunity to become stronger.

"There are more and more experts." Everyone realized that Earth had mobilized all the forces it could for this great battle.

Whether it's hidden strength or external aid, it's all for the sake of winning this cross-industry battle.

I thought that this power was already the limit.

However, after a short while, a phoenix cry echoed from the distant heavens and earth, and a huge azure phoenix came flying through the clouds, with two beautiful women in armor, radiating golden light, sitting on it.

Behind the two women were two Divine Wood Immortal Path warships.

The two immortal warships were like two small suns, radiating a golden, intense heat even before they got close, making it impossible to look directly at them.

"They're new allies," the group thought to themselves, but then they stared intently at one of the magnificent, golden warships.

The space was filled with ancient and powerful auras, suggesting that dozens of extraordinary beings had arrived aboard this specially crafted warship.
