The Post Sky Tipping Era-Chapter 1220 - 982: Return to the Heavenly Realm

Li Yi traveled across various realms during this period, meeting people from his past, handling all these trivial matters well. For those who followed him, he gave opportunities, for the worlds he visited, he lent a hand to save them. Of course, he also settled old grudges one by one.

Leaving the Four Seas and Eight Continents, Li Yi visited the Dark World, personally ended the darkness of that world, bringing light to it. He also came to the Wasteland Apocalypse, but that world seemed to no longer need his intervention.

The biochemical beasts of the Wasteland Apocalypse have become extinct, and the surviving humans are rebuilding their homes; everything is thriving.

After wandering in circles, Li Yi, together with the two immortals, Xiang Xiangzi and Xuan Yuezi, returned once more to Earth’s Tianchang City.

Li Yi went to see his old home in the old city district.

It’s still as rundown, covered with dust, but it evokes memories of the days he lived here. However, time has passed; he fulfilled his youthful dreams, reunited with his parents, and became a powerful cultivator.

He casually wiped away the dust, renovated the shabby old home, making it spotless while retaining its original appearance.

"I rose from here; when I return next time, I wonder if it will still be here," Li Yi lamented.

To the side, Xiang Xiangzi and Xuan Yuezi remained silent.

She knew that Taiyi was retracing his path, eliminating regrets, solidifying his dao heart. Reflecting on the past and feeling sentimental is normal. When they achieved success in cultivation, they too visited old places, saw past acquaintances, lamented the changes, and finally severed worldly ties to devote themselves to cultivation.

"Look, on the ground and the ceiling, there are the fist marks I left from practicing."

Li Yi looked at the uneven ceiling and floor, and he smiled.

However, he didn’t restore these traces; he left them as they were, and simultaneously, left behind a few trivial spells like Dust Avoidance Technique and Insect Avoidance Technique.

If this place is to be destroyed in the future, Li Yi wouldn’t stop it; it’s part of the city’s evolution, and he would respect this trend. But if this residential building still exists afterwards.

Then Li Yi would still revisit if he gets the chance.

After staying awhile, Li Yi left and returned to the Peace Finance Building. This building was once destroyed and later rebuilt, but it wasn’t the same as before.

It was crafted into a Dao Artifact from Red Gold.

Since then, Li Yi rarely resided there, but he always kept it, so familiar faces who succeeded in their cultivation could gather there.

Lin Yue, Zheng Gong, Zhao Lingfu, Lv Jue, Zhao Xiaoxiao, and others.

Most were evolvers he met in Tianchang City; initially, they clustered together to warm each other during the Sky Tipping event and had many unforgettable experiences.

Of course, now everyone has gone their separate ways; even Lin Yue, Sister Lin, and Li Yi seldom meet.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to meet; it’s just that everyone’s cultivation path is different, resulting in meeting less and parting more.

When Li Yi entered the building.

The familiar Intelligent Computer Lan Ji still dutifully carried out her responsibilities, welcoming Li Yi back, and within the building, there are self-maintaining intelligent robots that need no human attention.

"Is Zheng Lan not home?" Li Yi inquired.

Zheng Lan is Zheng Gong’s cousin, who has always helped manage the building and greatly assisted him; Li Yi would not forget this kinship.

"Miss Zheng Lan hasn’t returned for over a year," Lan Ji stated, "The last message was three months ago; Miss Zheng Lan was seen on a transport spaceship heading to the Demon God Realm."

"Gone to fulfill immortal cultivation in the Demon God Realm?" Li Yi immediately guessed the situation.

Earth is plagued by pollution, but the Demon God Realm remains untainted; thus, Earth’s cultivators are eager to cultivate there. Although Tianchang City has the Daoist formation’s protection, shielding against pollution.

But how could the Spiritual Energy accommodate everyone’s cultivation?

Zheng Lan also embarked on the path of immortal cultivation; naturally, achieving success requires being in a better environment.

But now it’s unnecessary; Li Yi left the Heavenly King Palace behind, and Zheng Lan, as his close friend, would naturally be cared for, able to cultivate in the palace of the Heavenly King, though many people are unaware of what Li Yi has done to date.

"Should we make a trip to the Demon God Realm?" Xiang Xiangzi said.

For Li Yi, it’s just a step away.

Li Yi slightly shook his head, saying, "Let it be, in the future there will be a chance to meet again; it’s okay to miss this one."

Then he left a jade bottle containing the Nine Heavens Divine Water: "Lan Ji, give this to Zheng Lan when she returns, and say it’s a gift from me to everyone."

"Alright, Master." Lan Ji took the jade bottle and recorded the task.

For Zheng Lan, the infinite miraculous effects of the Nine Heavens Divine Water are enough to make her immortal, although the future is unknown, it’s a start toward eternal life.

When the efficacy of the Nine Heavens Divine Water spreads, everyone gathers, naturally sharing.

The quantity Li Yi left is ample, sufficient for everyone to use, even with surplus.

"This is given to Lin Yue, Sister Lin." After some thought, Li Yi placed the redundant Red Gold Dao Artifact, Miracles, and some collections into a Storage Taoist Artifact.

Then he passed this Storage Taoist Artifact to Lan Ji; Li Yi himself retained only one Divine Wood Red Gold Battleship because this battleship has Intelligent Brain Hongji, recording cross-dimensional coordinates, which is somewhat helpful to him.

Li Yi’s collections are treasures on Earth, but in the Heavenly Realm, they’re trash; taking them there holds no significance, leaving them with Sister Lin is at least putting them to some good use.

After completing these matters.

"Two immortals, things here are mostly done; tomorrow I plan to head to the Heavenly Realm. During this time, you two immortals can attend to some personal matters as well." Li Yi said, "After all, this journey might take decades, even a century."

Though cross-dimensional travel via Sword Coin is easy, since cultivation is the goal, frequent visits to the homeland aren’t feasible; preparations naturally must be made in advance.

"Alright, I’ll go bid farewell to Yun Feizi again." Xuan Yuezi nodded and said.

Xiang Xiangzi suspiciously said, "Taiyi, are you planning to leave us quietly?"

Li Yi said, "How could that be? Immortal, can’t you trust me a little? I’m staying here for the night and will leave early tomorrow morning."

Xiang Xiangzi finally nodded reassuringly.

Watched the two Immortals depart.

Then, Li Yi reminisced a bit. Although there were still some matters left unresolved, this return to the Heavenly Realm was not a matter of life and death, as he would be back in the future, so he didn’t worry too much.

Next, he went to his room at the top floor.

To be safe, Li Yi left behind a Heavenly King’s Power and equipped it with Heavenly King level armor, allowing it to conceal itself here. Should heaven and earth face disaster or his friends and family encounter perilous danger, it would act to protect.

The Heavenly King’s Power transformed into a human form, donned the armor, concealed like a puppet in a room, only appearing in moments of life-and-death crisis.

After completing these tasks, Li Yi was finally at ease.

Then he sat in the chair, gazing through the glass at the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar Tianchang City, quietly awaiting the arrival of tomorrow.

A night’s time meant nothing to Li Yi.

He reviewed the past, looked down upon his homeland, time passed quickly, and soon, the sun rose slowly in the east, the night faded away, and a new day arrived.

But for some reason, Li Yi felt as if his Primordial Spirit had shed a layer of shackles and dust, bringing a sense of rebirth.

His mindset seemed to have unknowingly undergone a transformation.

This transformation was invisible and intangible, but it could be genuinely felt.

"Is this what cultivators call the severing of mortal ties and the steadfastness of the Dao heart?" Li Yi couldn’t help but ponder.

Having experienced so much, he was no longer the young novice entering cultivation; he had indeed changed significantly.

But Li Yi believed that this was just his growth.

A moment later.

A Xiangyun flew over from Dao Court Mountain, Xiang Xiangzi and Xuan Yuezi dressed in simple garments, free from dust, arriving together.

Seeing this, Li Yi did not hesitate and stepped out of the building, "Immortal, has everything been settled?"

The two Immortals nodded, and then Xuan Yuezi said, "We have no worldly matters, we merely chatted leisurely with Yun Feizi all night."

They came from the Dharma Decline World, having cultivated for hundreds of years, long since detached from worldly affairs, and with the Heavenly Dao Sect’s demise, they were now unburdened, their only steadfast Dao heart remaining, fearless in life and death.

"Very well, let us set out then."

Li Yi did not hesitate, he glanced back at Tianchang City, and then the Heavenly King’s Power surged out, enveloping the two Immortals, rushing towards the sky, followed by the Sword Coin appearing out of nowhere, slicing open the Cross-border Gate, and the three disappeared in an instant.

Following the path taken, Li Yi crossed dimensions repeatedly.

This time, however, he did not stop anywhere, for in these worlds he had already lent aid, and they would only get better in the future.

Soon.

Li Yi arrived in the small world left by Hua Qing with the two Immortals.

This small world was both a temporary resting place and a directional checkpoint. Failure to come here indicated a loss of direction, requiring immediate adjustment.

"Is this the Heavenly Realm?" Xiang Xiangzi sniffed the astounding Spiritual Energy and saw countless celestial treasures, various Heaven and Earth Treasures, like the Immortal Realm.

"Just a temporary resting place, not yet the Heavenly Realm. We continue to cross dimensions." Li Yi, after a brief stop, resumed his journey, wielding the Sword Coin to slice open the Cross-border Gate once more, continuing to traverse.

Treading the path, his route was subtle and winding, as if weaving through gaps between many Great Realms, avoiding countless dangers.

Finally, when the Heaven and Earth Embryonic Membrane appeared before him, Li Yi knew the Heavenly Realm had been reached.

"We’re entering the Heavenly Realm."

Li Yi issued a reminder, then tore open the Heaven and Earth Embryonic Membrane and leaped into the Heavenly Realm.

The two Immortals only felt a flicker before stepping into an infinite Great Realm, abundant in Spiritual Energy, containing myriad creations, the space stable, immortality for everyone.

Li Yi immediately surveyed the surroundings, determining his position.

Each cross-dimension journey, though locations were similar, the spatial mysteries involved could lead to vast discrepancies; even he, a Heavenly King, couldn’t precisely return to the cross-border point.

Fortunately, he had previously agreed to meet several Heavenly Kings, including Cold Mountain, by the Sea of Ruins, so next he simply needed to go to the Sea of Ruins.

But where is here?

Everywhere were towering mountains, akin to a Land of Origin, unable to see cultivators, nor large cities.

Moreover, this place wasn’t marked on the Heavenly Realm map.

"Lost?" Li Yi had to admit in the end that this cross-dimensional journey was not perfect.

No matter, he was a Heavenly King, at worst, he would spend some time traveling.
