Li Qi Reveals Himself

The sky trembled, and in an instant, all life on earth was plunged into intense suffering!

"Did I send you to school just so you'd end up doing this?" A male voice, sounding exasperated, rang out.

"You know, she used to like you," a regretful female voice said.

"His family is noble!" another exclaimed.

"Old woman... it must be the fiftieth year already? I'm so glad I fell in love with you in this life." It was a nostalgic voice from an old woman.

"How could this be!? How could I not pass the exam!? I tried so hard!" A hysterical female voice cried out.

"Squeak!" The howl of a small animal when it is being hunted.

These sounds began to resonate in everyone's minds, then coalesced into countless noises.

The entire history of the world, the thoughts of everyone, seemed to be greatly disturbed in this instant. Countless voices exploded, and the turmoil of the mortal world, countless emotions, feelings, thoughts, and feelings all surged in!

Everyone was hallucinating.

All of this was because the Heavenly Dao of this world was forcibly refined by someone in an instant.

The wailing and final struggle of Heavenly Dao spread throughout the world. All life heard this wailing. Everything that this world experienced was the last echo of Heavenly Dao's voice. The hallucinations and auditory hallucinations they experienced were all 'collective memories' stored by Heavenly Dao.

But all of this is meaningless and cannot prevent the arrival of that great being.

As the Heavenly Dao refined it, the World Barrier were directly dissolved under a great force.

A terrifying hole, visible to the entire world, appeared in the sky.

A hand reached out from it, a gigantic hand that seemed capable of crushing the continent of this world, effortlessly grasping the Heavenly Dao and the branches of reincarnation of this world.

Next, they seize a soul that has not yet left the cycle of reincarnation. This soul is newly reincarnated, still alive, and has not yet become a ghost, nor has it truly entered the gates of hell.

Therefore, as long as you resist the pull of reincarnation, you can still live.

This period is what ordinary people call the "final moments," or "fighting with Yama, the King of Hell."

However, in reality, the King of Hell hasn't reached out yet. Although he's dead, he's not completely dead. Being saved at this time is what's called "taking a trip through the Ghost Gate Pass," or "resurrection."

The soul enters the body, but the body is already dead, so the soul flies away.

But physical death is nothing serious; it can be dealt with before the underworld officials arrive.

Then, with a gentle rub of its fingers, a massive amount of vibrant life force, almost enough to fill the entire world, burst forth, bringing the dead body back to life!

The three souls return to their places, and the seven spirits enter the body.

Perfectly healthy, just like a newborn, lively and energetic, without any aftereffects, after all...

Heaven's Will is watching everything; everything is calculated, everything is arranged.

This is not only an adventure for Li Shiwei, but also a major test for Li Qi himself.

Li Qi's great test was an examination of his strength, wisdom, temperament, and strategic ability. Only those with such abilities could become true 'advisors'.

After all, once he joined the war, his role was that of a strategist, responsible for troop deployment, troop deployment, and outwitting the enemy's strategists to strive for the greatest possible victory.

This was not only an adventure for Li Shiwei, but also an important training opportunity for Li Qi.

Fortunately, everything went well; he did indeed successfully act as 'Heaven's Will' within a short period of time and a limited scope.

For nearly three years, Li Qi was more like the Heavenly Dao than the Heavenly Dao itself in this Seventh Rank World.

Even the Heavenly Dao are within his will.

Li Shiwei also gained something from her experience.

Through repeated insights and gains, she finally condensed her life into a single moment on the verge of death. Although she did not find her Seventh-Rank Dao Foundation, she managed to eliminate the flaws in her Dao heart.

Compared to the foundation of the Dao, Li Qi felt that the Dao heart was more important.

In fact, two years later, the "ordinary mind" that Li Shiwei thought she had grasped was not ordinary at all.

Her so-called ordinariness simply meant no longer distinguishing between high and low, noble and lowly, but she still separated herself from the crowd. She still considered herself a passerby, and still felt that she was a unique and special existence.

At first, she thought of herself as a 'hero'. After being enlightened by the stone, she thought of herself as a 'special practitioner'. Only after dying did she realize that she was neither a hero nor special.

In reality, no one in this world is special, and nothing is special.

No matter how special or powerful a realm may be, it is not special at all.

She was just an ordinary person, a part of the myriad worlds, an ordinary component of the universe, no different from any other part.

Li Qi had always been aware of this. He knew that although he was more capable than most people, he was not more special than most people. But Li Shiwei did not think so, because she was special from birth.

Therefore, she needs to experience trials and tribulations. Only in this way can she develop a true sense of normalcy, recognize her own ordinariness, and recognize the ordinariness of others. Ultimately, she can examine all things in the world with an equal eye, and not let prejudice in her heart lead to more prejudice, thus being blinded by a leaf and unable to see Mount Tai.

There are many cases where prejudice leads to more prejudice, which in turn leads to arrogance, and finally completely obscures the Dharma eye and cloudes the Dao heart. Many practitioners have stumbled because of this.

Fortunately, Li Shiwei pulled herself out of it.

The hand gradually shrank, and the hole in the sky began to be patched up.

Then, a figure descended from the sky.

Li Qi fell from above, landing in the center of the battlefield.

The villager's eyes were filled with fear, and his whole body trembled.

He was willing to fight to the death against Li Shiwei, but facing the terrifying being before him who could easily shake the entire world... although his martial spirit remained, his reason told him—

We can't win.

It's impossible to win. This is a great being who could crush the entire world with a single hand. He is an indescribable and terrifying god, far more magnificent than any other deity or self-proclaimed god in this world.

His existence is more powerful than the entire world combined!

"Don't be nervous, relax. You did a good job. You protected your world, and of course... you paid the corresponding price. But since all of this was caused by me, consider it my repayment." As Li Qi spoke, he flipped his palm, revealing three True Spirits.

These were the three martial artists who had been killed by Li Shiwei earlier. Li Qi did not allow them to enter the cycle of reincarnation, but instead collected their true spirits and a portion of their flesh and blood.

For a seventh-rank cultivator, this is enough to be resurrected. After all, a seventh-rank cultivator can completely resist reincarnation on their own. Even if they die, they will not be reincarnated. As long as their soul is not completely destroyed, they can be reborn as a ghost cultivator.

Those who seek immortality cannot even resist reincarnation; how can they achieve immortality?

It should be understood that a seventh-rank being is already considered a true 'god' in many worlds, an absolute top-tier existence chosen from millions of worlds and countless lives.

Just like Li Qi, who may seem ordinary, he is actually in a very high position.

After handing over the true spirit, Li Qi looked at Li Shiwei again.

Li Shiwei slowly woke up.

Upon opening her eyes, the first thing she saw was Li Qi, followed by the still-healing hole in the sky.

She reacted quickly, immediately realizing what had happened, and stood up to say something.

But after hesitating for a moment, she withdrew her choices and simply bowed her head, calling out, "Father..."

Li Qi's heart melted at that one word, "Father."

He had prepared many lessons, including his advice and criticisms of Li Shiwei, as well as many other things.

But now, after nearly twenty years, hearing that timid 'father' again, he realized... indeed, sometimes spoiling is involuntary.

She spent almost twenty years away from home, twenty years of hardship and suffering, to the point that her voice became hoarse.

When she left, she was a carefree, happy, and cheerful girl.

Now she stands silently in place, a much more mature and composed young woman than before, nearing forty, having already lived half her life in the mortal world.

Although this time is but a blink of an eye for an immortal, to be honest... Li Qi is only a little over a hundred years old, he is not that immortal.

This period of nearly twenty years is not a short time for him.

So, in the end, he put his hand down, sighed, and said, "Sigh, let's go back and talk about it. Your mother is waiting for you outside. Are you leaving now?"

"I... give me some time. I'll go find the stone, and then... I'll talk to my father properly when I get back," Li Shiwei nodded and said.

"Alright." Li Qi didn't make things too difficult for her and let Li Shiwei leave.

Li Shiwei left to go find Shi Tou.

Stone is still with Lu De; he seems to really like the young man.

As for Li Qi, he stood still, looked at the villager, and said, "The message has almost reached you, right? You should have some high-cost, fast-travel technology. Are you coming soon?"

"... Yes, it's coming soon." The villager nodded.

Perhaps it was a coincidence, but before the words were finished, distorted beams of light suddenly flashed all around, the chaotic light intertwined, and then came more than thirty seventh-rank beings.

There are wise men, emperors, hermits, thugs, gods, and wild beasts.

They carried all sorts of 'divine artifacts', including Law Treasure of the seventh rank and various powerful weapons, some of which had already been activated.

This represents the entire world's resources, treasures, and powerful figures arriving simultaneously and launching their attacks at the same time.

The moment they arrived, all the seventh-rank soldiers exuded intense killing intent!

All the power of a powerful Seventh Rank World is displayed here.

If it were Li Shiwei, she would probably be instantly defeated.

However, Li Qi waved his hand and said, "Sit down, everyone."

In the blink of an eye.

All Technique Method were broken, all Law Treasure were sealed, and all cultivation levels were suppressed.

Without a sound, all the ancients of the world were transformed into ordinary people.

Then, chairs appeared in the void and landed beneath them.

Their knees buckled, and they involuntarily sat down in the chairs.

A cold sweat instantly soaked through everyone present.

Those with sharp eyes have already noticed how the chair appeared.

To Creation from Nothing.

With just a thought, a real chair appeared out of nothingness, leaving those who noticed it feeling as if they had fallen into an ice cave.

A true Creation from Nothing?

Or is it... something like a spatial device?

I hope it's the latter.

But Li Qi didn't care what they were thinking. Instead, he said, "I apologize for bothering you all. In the heat of the moment, I needed to sever the cycle of reincarnation here, so I refined the Heavenly Dao here."

"However, I will grant the Heavenly Dao of this place its freedom. After all, the refining was only a temporary measure. As for your world... would you like to return to normalcy or join the new world? This concerns the fate of your world, so you can think about it carefully."

After speaking, Li Qi did not elaborate, but instead waved his hand gently, and a strange phenomenon occurred behind him.

Within the strange phenomena, one could vaguely glimpse the future.

Li Qi presented the world with a choice as his apology.

Returning to normalcy, Li Qi would cast this world into the uninhabited world cluster, letting it drift and develop on its own, with numerous future scenarios constantly emerging, layer upon layer.

To join the new world, one must enter the 'Merchant Guild'. Thereupon, they see endless races and civilizations, and they themselves become one of them, joining independently and autonomously, becoming part of the world group.

Two futures lay before them.

The strange phenomenon disappeared.

The seventh-ranked being known as the Divine Emperor immediately made a decision. In the instant he observed, he realized that this was an opportunity. He immediately issued an order and chose to join the new world without hesitation.

The humanoids immediately joined his side.

The Beast King, on the other hand, chose to develop on his own, saying, "This is our world, and even if it is interfered with, we should develop it ourselves."

The Divine Emperor replied, "If we develop on our own, who knows how long it will take to break through? Did you see that? Such power can only be truly reached by connecting with all races!"

After that, an argument ensued.

Li Qi remained seated, waiting for the outcome of their argument.

The argument eventually escalated into a brawl.

The beasts of this world, Way of Evolution, launched the first attack; they realized one thing—

Li Qi will not intervene, which means that now is the juncture for deciding the fate of the world, but they cannot defeat this almost invincible existence.

However, the other party is clearly waiting for them to decide how to choose.

Since words can't resolve the dispute, let the person standing speak.

And so, the battle broke out.

The world's elites began to fight amongst themselves, and the ancients of the seven kingdoms engaged in a deathmatch under Li Qi's witness.

They are deciding the fate of this world.

Li Qi, however, was somewhat lost in thought as he watched their battle.

They are deciding the fate of a world.

How many other worlds are witnessing such struggles?

So, who is right?

Have no idea.

Just like Li Qi...

No, it's just like everyone's Dao Path is the same.
