Fierce Battle

Li Qi never expected that his carefully crafted little world would be torn apart by the other side in just one encounter, as if it were a joke.

"The so-called small world is nothing more than a caged bird. The caged bird may think this world is incredibly safe, but to the tigers and leopards outside, it's nothing but a piece of paper. It seems you've never been in a fight before. You've been living too comfortably, haven't you? I've heard that Wushen Mountain is very peaceful. Young masters never fight each other. Even a quarrel is considered a big deal. It's a scene of peace and tranquility." The Demon Prince seemed to be a chatterbox as he leisurely stepped into the small world.

Then, demonic energy swirled around his arms, enveloping his forearms and palms. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the energy of the Four Demons!

The demon of heaven, the demon of death, the Five Aggregates Demon, the Affliction Demon.

The Four Demons, the source of all evil thoughts that trouble sentient beings, manifest in his hands.

The title of Demon Prince is no joke; he wields the power of Four Demons simultaneously and has mastered them.

Then, the Demon Prince flashed and instantly appeared in front of Li Qi.

Li Qi's expression changed. This speed... is too fast!

Li Qi clasped his hands together, and the Inner Gods his small world immediately rose up. Several Inner Gods suddenly appeared, half protecting Li Qi and the other half attacking from behind, trying to force the Demon Prince to turn around and defend!

But the Demon Prince only reached forward with one hand to grab Li Qi, while reaching behind him with the other hand and hooking it slightly.

With a deafening roar, a powerful burst of air erupted, and demonic energy and brute force assaulted him. Li Qi only had time to neutralize the demonic energy attempting to invade his body, but it was too late to deflect the force. He was forced to endure all the brute force and was sent flying nearly a mile away by a single palm strike. He rolled around on the deck in a disheveled state before finally crashing into the protective wall and coming to a stop.

If he hadn't crashed into something, he probably would have been thrown four or five miles away.

On the other side, Li Qi chose to Inner Gods shattered with a few cracking sounds!

The backlash from the shattering of his Inner Gods made Li Qi see stars. The Five Peaks Mountain God were formed from his five internal organs, so he immediately felt excruciating pain in his internal organs and suffered some internal injuries. However, he endured it and did not vomit blood.

Meanwhile, the Demon Prince shook his hand, glanced at the shattered Inner Gods, and a cane had appeared in his hand without him noticing.

It was the same cane he had thrown earlier.

He had just flicked his finger to summon this Law Treasure. The bamboo staff only circled twice on its return journey before shattering the Inner Gods!

The Demon Prince, however, did not pursue them. Instead, he landed on the ground, leaned on his bamboo staff, and walked towards Li Qi, saying, "You see, I told you, you Shaman really don't know how to fight..."

"Your living environment is too relaxed. Wushen Mountain is too good to you. I heard that every young master can grow freely without any pressure or assessment, following the laws of nature and allowing the younger generation to develop freely."

"However, our demonic path is different."

"From the moment I was born, I was made through fighting. Before I reached the next level, I had to face life-or-death battles every day, outwitting and outfighting all my fellow disciples to carve out a way to survive."

"Now it seems that although the casualty rate is relatively high, the Demonic Path did the right thing, don't you think?" The Demon Prince said this as he walked towards Li Qi.

He seemed to actually be talking during the battle, constantly trying to converse with Li Qi.

Moreover, after he landed, Li Qi realized why he had brought that ink bamboo walking stick.

That wasn't just Law Treasure, it was also his walking stick.

He walks with a limp. It wasn't noticeable when he was flying, but now that he's landed, it's clear that one of his legs is longer than the other. The shorter one is his right leg, which is also not very flexible.

That's why he needed that bamboo cane to lean on while walking.

This is a typical case of being born with a physical deficiency, being small in stature and lacking a complete universe.

It is extremely difficult to make up for this, as it is not simply a physical disability.

If an arm is broken due to an accident or injury, it is very simple for a new one to grow back. Li Qi can do it easily and without much trouble.

However, if your inner world is flawed, it means that it was born this way. Your inner world is inherently lacking a certain amount of energy, which is almost impossible to make up for later. You didn't have it to begin with, so what's the point of talking about 'growing' it?

Using unorthodox methods of physical transformation might make things look better, but it's meaningless. Your inner world is still incomplete, and everyone can still tell at a glance.

Only truly profound transformation techniques can achieve flawless transformations, such as the Thirty-Six Transformations of the Heavenly Gang and the Seventy-two Earthly Transformations. However... if one can cultivate to this level, their inner world is no longer a weakness.

If one wants to repair at the seventh grade level, only a treasure like the Longevity Pill, which possesses Innate Qi, can make up for the defects in the heavens and earth, or simply reincarnate and be born again.

However, the effects of the Longevity Pill are limited; it can only partially compensate for things like losing a finger.

But the Demon Prince was missing limbs.

The limbs are an important part of the inner world, corresponding to the four seasons and the four directions. The fact that he is missing a leg means that he was born without the Qi of the Four Seasons, only the three seasons, and his inner world also only has the three directions.

The sun and moon lose their course, and are eclipsed, losing their light.

Untimely winds and rains cause destruction and disaster.

When the Five Elements are out of balance, Earth suffers the consequences.

When the four seasons are out of order, disasters and anomalies suddenly arise.

The most serious situation would probably be being born without a head.

Being missing a head is probably the most serious of all disabilities.

Li Qi noticed this and immediately formed hand Hand Seals, saying mockingly, "The hands and feet are called the four limbs, which symbolize the four seasons. If the four limbs are not in order, the four seasons will be out of balance, all things will be incomplete, the five elements will be unfavorable, and one will be poor and lowly for life. The dignified Demon Prince is actually a born cripple. How did you even enter the ranks?"

If the other person likes to talk, then you might as well talk more; talking is time-sensitive.

When the Demon Prince was asked about his physical disability, he answered.

However, he seemed very calm and was not angered by his physical disability at all. He just walked with a limp and said, "Of course you don't know, but you don't need to know, because I will crush you soon. You are a rare flower grown in a greenhouse, rare but far inferior to me, a poplar tree grown in the desert."

As he spoke, he slowly walked towards Li Qi. With the advancement of the bamboo staff, Li Qi's small world also shattered. Wherever he went, it shattered, failing to achieve the suppressive effect that Li Qi had anticipated.

Li Qi immediately realized that the reason the other person landed and used a bamboo cane to support his short legs was not to show off his disability, but to make use of the power of the bamboo cane! That's why he was walking so slowly.

If he were to fly in, then the small world wouldn't be able to be broken through! His slow movement is unavoidable, not because he's truly strolling leisurely!

He had to rely on a bamboo staff to break through the small world!

Realizing this, Li Qi immediately changed his hand Method Formula, and countless Law Treasure suddenly flew out of his Mustard Seed Bag! There were hundreds of thousands of them, crammed onto this one deck, with a faint force that seemed to blot out the sky!

However, most of them are grade nine, a small number are grade eight, and only a very few are grade seven, totaling no more than one hundred pieces.

Seeing so many Law Treasure suddenly fly out, the Demon Prince immediately stopped in his tracks, frowning as he observed, thinking that Li Qi had some trump card up his sleeve. After all, so many Law Treasure were quite intimidating.

However, the Demon Prince cautiously stopped, then looked closely and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Hmph... It's actually plates and lanterns? Young master, are you welcoming me? Are we about to have a banquet?" The previously composed Demon Prince seemed to have been amused and laughed so hard his hands trembled.

The scene was indeed quite comical. The items Li Qi took out were tableware and ornaments that he intended to sell, use as samples, and give away as gifts.

Countless lanterns, candles, ribbons, clothing, lamps, wine cups, wine pots, plates, and other items such as woks, steamers, pots, pans, bowls, jars, goblets, and various ornaments, even spoons, were all included.

The Tang Kingdom, especially those from Chang'an, were not accustomed to using naturally produced things. They were used to using Law Treasure, and the terminal could easily control these Law Treasure.

Just like on Earth, most of the objects in big cities are industrial products from factories. Even a chopstick comes from a chopstick factory, and a toilet can't be made of wood but has a flushing function. These are all taken for granted, and no one considers what kind of technology the toilet has, what industrial chain it involves, or what kind of patented technology it has.

Therefore, for the Tang Kingdom, everything in their lives, even just these tableware, was Law Treasure.

The Demon Prince must be aware of this as well.

That's why he smiled.

But the Demon Prince, seeing Li Qi display countless tableware and lanterns, stood there and laughed, "Tableware? Are you trying to kill me with plates and bowls? Or are you trying to make me laugh to death?"

However, although he was laughing and watching Li Qi's comical performance, the Demon Prince's eyes still held contempt and vigilance.

It's strange; he seems to look down on Li Qi, but at the same time, he pays close attention to Li Qi.

He deliberately made some arrogant gestures, yet he was also very cautious when facing Li Qi, presenting a very contradictory appearance.

This is not a matter of strategic contempt and tactical emphasis, but rather a combination of strategic contempt and tactical emphasis.

His attitude was very strange; it seemed he was deeply conflicted, and not just in a normal way, but to the point of developing a split personality.

However, Li Qi ignored all of that and quickly arranged all the Law Treasure, then combined them into one.

These Law Treasure have absolutely no combat power.

However, it can be used to set up illusion arrays!

With the Demon Prince deliberately holding back, Li Qi quickly set up the illusion array, taking only a few seconds.

The Demon Prince remained vigilant throughout, but made no move to stop him.

Once Li Qi's illusion array was complete, he paused with his bamboo staff, as if talking to himself, and said, "This is the last time. After this, I will kill him. You've already made too many concessions. We're even now."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the scenery around him that was beginning to change.

Once the illusion array is complete, everything around it will naturally begin to transform into an illusion.

But the dilapidated walls and messy deck were transformed into a lavish banquet.

The wine hall was magnificent, and the main hall was rebuilt.

The Dragon Bone are hung as beams, their spiritual light shining in the sun; the fish scales are woven into tiles, and auspicious energy fills the sky.

The curtains are adorned with pearls and white jade, and the boats with bluebirds and Yellow Dragon are connected. When the latticed windows are opened, the sea view is seen in the room, and when the embroidered doors are opened, the cloud shadows are seen in the window.

Butterflies dance on the three eaves, and mica screens unfold.

The curtains are rolled up like crystal, and six giant turtles support the chariot.

Golden goblets and jade cups were laid out in a magnificent banquet.

Maids walked about, serving osmanthus wine instead of pepper wine; musicians played music, striking golden bells and ringing gongs; fairies performed dances, their flowing sleeves swaying gracefully, surrounded by shimmering light and shadow, auspicious mist and smoke rising in the air.

Within this illusionary array, one feels one's heart swaying and easily intoxicated, amidst this merriment.

This is the most common situation in the Imperial Garden. The Imperial Garden is a place for singing and dancing, and the illusion array set up is for unrestrained enjoyment and has no killing power.

"You're really going to buy me a drink?" the Demon Prince laughed, then continued to limp into the illusion array.

Then, he easily saw through the many settings of the illusion array without being affected at all. Wherever his cane passed, the illusion and the small world shattered together.

Then, he walked to the core of the illusion array, poked it down with his cane, and the surrounding illusions shattered instantly! The many foundations of the entire illusion array, and even many foundations of the small world, all shook!

The illusion array did not deceive his eyes at all; he saw through it completely.

But then, nearly half of the Law Treasure that formed part of the formation outside shattered instantly!

The illusion array shattered instantly!

Without saying another word, the Demon Prince fell silent, his body flashing a few times before he charged directly in front of Li Qi!

The devil's claws reached out and grabbed Li Qi with one hand!

Unexpectedly, Li Qi's body flickered once or twice, then vanished into a phantom light.

"Hmm?" The Demon Prince frowned and immediately turned to the side!

But it was too late. Li Qi's movements were far faster than a Shaman's, and he kicked the Demon Prince's crippled right leg directly.

Li Qi felt no pressure whatsoever about bullying disabled people.

If you have a weakness and don't exploit it, wouldn't that be stupid?

Using illusion magic, Li Qi kicked the opponent's leg, and then pushed off with all his might, kicking the Demon Prince's body directly into the coverage area of the small world!

The Demon Prince was unsteady on his feet, and Li Qi illusion magic to conceal his movements, suddenly bursting out with several times the speed, catching him off guard and actually kicking him inside!

"Martial arts?! You've even studied martial arts?" The Demon Prince was somewhat surprised, having been included in the small world.

In this world, it is rare to find someone who also practices martial arts, because the Martial Dao Inner Qi can devour other energies.

Li Qi remained silent, unleashing the power of the Carp Flowing Intent, combined with the power control method for fishing taught to him by Shen Yijun, and bursting forth with several times the power, rushing towards the Demon Prince!

With a series of attacks, the Demon Prince dodged repeatedly, his Movement Method proving to be quite impressive.

"So fast... Your physical body can't be this strong. Wait, what's that...?" The Demon Prince frowned!

Because he saw that Li Qi had actually used fragments of magical Law Treasure to assemble an exoskeleton for the Reason Way.

Then, using the principles of the Reason Way Law Treasure weapon body, he drove the martial arts techniques and improved his close combat ability!

The Demon Prince understands this.

But the question is, where did he get the Law Treasure exoskeleton?

While trying his best to dodge Li Qi's storm of attacks, the Demon Prince also kept an eye on the source of Li Qi's Law Treasure.

Then, he was shocked to discover...

It was the tableware he had broken?!
