Illusionary Reality Domain

Li Shiwei felt that these two months were the happiest time in her hundreds of years.

Li Qi also corrected many of her bad habits.

Li Qi had perfected all the shortcuts to laziness during cultivation, incorrect ways of exerting force, and improper ways of assembling Technique Method, all through the True Knowledge Dao Charm.

Even someone at the fourth rank couldn't possibly do any better.

After all, it's only a seventh-grade cultivation level, like a primary school problem, a linear equation in one variable. There's not much difference between Li Qi, a college student, solving it, and a PhD student solving it.

Since there's only one correct answer anyway, it doesn't reflect the difference between the two.

Two months later, Li Qi watched Li Shiwei perform the ritual.

All the unusual phenomena were quite perfect, without any flaws.

If Li Qi couldn't see any flaws, then it means there are no flaws at the seventh rank stage.

Observing his daughter's progress, Li Qi was quite satisfied.

As he took notes, he said, "This is the last lesson. I've modified your Cultivation Method to make it more suitable for the Yang Energy required. You're practicing your mother's Daoist Cultivation Method, the core of which is also the Polaris Golden Core Method. However, you haven't been able to unleash its divine power. This is mainly because you only have a portion of the lunar essence's power. After this modification, I've made a connection to your inner world's sun. You can use external talismans to replenish the extreme yang energy. In this way, you can use all the methods of the Chenji Golden Elixir Method."

After saying that, he handed a book to Li Shiwei.

Before Li Shiwei could react, he took out a Literary Qi and attached it to her.

"This Literary Qi contains all your ratings and suggestions for improvement over the past two months. Time is limited, so take a good look at it yourself. My vacation is coming to an end."

After Li Qi finished speaking, Li Shiwei reached out and took the book, asking somewhat timidly, "Then... Father, what about the future?"

"There's still plenty of time ahead. Once the Human-Shaman War is over, everything will be alright," Li Qi said with a smile.

"Okay!" Li Shiwei nodded and didn't say anything more.

Li Qi nodded, then left and went to Bo Yue's side.

Bo Yue opened his eyes. "Finished? I heard you. You're going to find the Great Witch Yun Fang."

"I'm planning to go look for it, so do you have any tasks for me to do?" Li Qi smiled.

"Hey, a publicly funded trip?" Bo Yue asked helplessly.

"There's no other way. During the war, the Liesu doesn't support civilian use. Without going through mission channels, it's impossible to reach other war zones. The travel time is too long." Li Qi shrugged.

To visit the Great Witch Yun Fang, one must go to the enemy's war zone, but Li Qi does not currently have the authority to use the Liesu. This requires the commander's approval and must be done in the form of a mission.

"There's a limit to using public property for private purposes. Let's work a little overtime," Bo Yue said with a smile.

Li Qi sighed, "Fine, why work overtime?"

He also knew that Bo Yue would not allow him to skip work and freeload like this; everyone had principles and was supposed to work.

"Now that you're so strong, you should be doing things that match your strength. From now on, I'm going to reduce the number of people on your side and reassign the Executioner Squad to do other things. All the Master Slaughter's tasks in this war zone will be handed over to you," Bo Yue said.

Li Qi was taken aback, then took two deep breaths.

That's really... you're too kind.

This almost increased Li Qi's workload by more than five times, and also created additional risks. After all, there were countless strong generals among the Human Path Generals, and Li Qi really dared not say that he could conquer them all.

We might end up crashing and burning in the gutter.

This is war, Human-Shaman War, not a game. Everyone who goes to the battlefield is at risk of dying. We must be clear about that.

Anything that treats war as a game will become a teaching material.

Li Qi was absolutely certain that if he died, many people would stop him from going back in time.

Even among the most powerful, there is competition and struggle; things cannot always go smoothly, and one cannot do whatever one wants.

But...

Li Qi immediately asked, "You've mobilized all your forces, leaving only me... and you're even taking Yu'er with you. What are you planning to do?"

"I have my own brilliant plan. I'm going to use them to do something big. Don't ask me about it. I'm the commander, and I have my own plan. Just tell me if you accept or not." Bo Yue was being evasive and didn't tell Li Qi directly.

Clearly, this matter was confidential, and Li Qi could not possibly know about it.

The authority of the Executioner Squad leader is not as high as that of the war zone commander, Li Qi has no right to inquire about it.

"If I do these things, you'll just give me a form for official business trips? And I'm leaving right away," Li Qi said.

"If I don't let you leave, you won't leave? You'll definitely go against orders, and you might even try to use personal connections to force me to grant you Liesu. I know you too well, kid." Bo Yue said, while writing out the permit and granting Li Qi a permit to use the Liesu.

"If you understand, then I'll take this job. But I can't guarantee I can finish it. After all, it's five times the workload, and there's always a limit to how many people can handle it. But I will definitely do my best," Li Qi promised.

"Alright, I trust you. Go ahead. I'll schedule the other guards for shifts. You have a year to find the Great Witch Yun Fang, but if you come back late, Shen Shuibi will be the one to cover for you." Bo Yue handed over the permit.

The permit is a treated jade tablet; only such a thing can activate the Liesu.

"You're even threatening me? Okay, it won't be overdue, you'll definitely be back in a year." Li Qi nodded, then hurried off.

After all, time is limited, and to be honest, a year isn't enough time to necessarily make any significant progress.

Li Qi disappeared from the spot.

Bo Yue glanced at Li Shiwei again.

Over there, Li Shiwei was talking to Shi Tou.

She said, "Stone... you mean, Father?"

"Shaman and exceptionally intelligent, and it's well-known that you are meticulous in your thinking. There's no need to worry so much. Just focus on your cultivation. Without the Daoist essence, your killing power has decreased by ninety percent, Boss," Stone replied.

Upon hearing this answer, Li Shiwei sighed.

The stone is very clever, but unfortunately, it's just like a stone.

It really is... a stone.

Meanwhile, Li Qi was on his way to the war zone where the Great Witch Yun Fang was located.

Fortunately, there were Liesu, so it only took a few Chen.

He quickly arrived at the place where the Great Shaman Yun Fang was.

The Great Shaman of Yun Fang is also stationed next to a wonder from beyond the realm, guarding this place from being taken away by Human Path.

This extraterrestrial wonder is called the 'Illusionary Reality Domain'. It is a strange place where you can 'make your wishes come true'.

That's right, in the Illusionary Reality Domain, all imagination can become reality.

However, it cannot be taken out, nor can it affect the outside world.

For most extraterrestrial beings, the Illusionary Reality Domain is a mysterious and extremely dangerous place.

Here, all mental activity can be directly transformed into reality; this is a true 'wish-making machine'.

The almighty wishing place, where all dreams can come true.

However, the effects are limited to the Illusionary Reality Domain and cannot extend beyond its Illusionary Reality Domain. Anything created within it cannot be taken out; it will disappear once it leaves the area.

This place is very, very famous. It is said that in the past, many people would come here every day.

They wanted to experience the dream, to make a wish, and perhaps never want to leave this place.

However, as far as Li Qi knew, the permanent population of the Illusionary Reality Domain was actually very small. He didn't know why, but perhaps someone was controlling it.

After all, in Li Qi's view, the 'wish fulfillment' ability of the Illusionary Reality Domain was simply too fantastical. If it were not restricted, people from all over the universe might come here to experience this fantastical bliss and be forever immersed in it.

Thinking this, Li Qi also flew to the edge of the Illusionary Reality Domain.

As a wonder of the outside world, it also boasts magnificent scenery.

The entire Illusionary Reality Domain is a cloud of mist floating in the universe. At the edge of the Illusionary Reality Domain, many worlds have been moved here and revolve around it.

As a wonder of the outside world, there are so many people here, unlike the desolate places like the Great Fire, the Moon Palace, or the World Fountain.

Many people have gathered here, but... they are all on the periphery.

They all stood outside the Illusionary Reality Domain, but did not go in.

You have to understand, this is during the Human-Shaman War, so it should be quiet, but it's really... strange that so many worlds still surround the Illusionary Reality Domain during the war.

Li Qi flew over.

He was inconspicuous in this place, just like an ordinary passerby.

He looked around; the density of the world here was... frighteningly dense.

Generally speaking, the distance between worlds is measured in light-years, because the outer reaches are very vast, and a distance of one light-year is considered a very, very close world.

But here, within a light-year's distance, tens of millions of worlds are densely packed together.

However, from the perspective of distance alone, tens of millions of worlds within a light-year are actually quite vast, roughly equivalent to having a glass bead in each of the two goalposts of a football field.

But for the world, the ideal density should be one glass bead in Shanghai and one glass bead in Hebei.

Therefore, Li Qi was somewhat terrified by this density. With such a high density, there was no guarantee that a global collision would occur at any time. These people were really not afraid of death. There are gravitational disturbances between worlds. Who knows when they would be pulled together by gravity and collide, and everyone would be wiped out.

However, the high density also brings benefits, namely extremely frequent exchanges. The starry sky here is exceptionally prosperous, with countless worlds having their own ways of traveling outside their own territories. All kinds of flying boats, World-Class Giant Ship, and alien extraterrestrial travel devices roam freely here.

If the outside world is usually like being in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, where you might only see a ship pass by once every few days, then this place right now is as lively as the bustling downtown area of a metropolis.

But all this excitement had nothing to do with Li Qi; he simply moved silently along the edge.

As Li Qi discerned his direction, he flew alongside these worlds surrounding the Illusionary Reality Domain. Through the True Knowledge Dao Charm, he began to understand the workings of the universe.

There are experts.

Someone precisely controlled the positions of these worlds, so that these tens of millions of worlds are in a state of gravitational equilibrium at such a close distance. Each world has its own orbit, and these orbits intersect each other but do not collide.

The technique... was quite impressive.

This gravitational perturbation is essentially a three-body problem, which has no exact solution. In other words, someone has created a mechanism that can be adjusted at any time to maintain the operation of this mechanism.

That's pretty impressive; at least Li Qi couldn't do it.

This is far too complicated. The Three-Body Problem was already a major headache, and then there's the problem of tens of millions of bodies, the disturbances from various World-Class Giant Ship, and even the subtle disturbances from various outsiders...

This was beyond Li Qi's capabilities; even Li Qi prized 'computing power' couldn't handle the problem.

Seeing the bustling scene, Li Qi sped up and soon arrived at the location where the Shaman Path was stationed.

To be honest, Li Qi didn't quite understand why the Great Witch Yun Fang wanted to set up camp here, but... perhaps it was to protect the Illusionary Reality Domain? After all, this place was quite strange.

The idea that one's wishes can come true is truly baffling.

There is no world here, so a Shaman Path was built in the void. The Great Shaman personally guards this place, and it is said that only the Great Shaman Yun Fang.

The platform is not large, only about two hundred miles in circumference, which is very small in the void. There are some houses, mountains, lakes and rivers on it. If you stand outside and look in, it is a small ecological zone in the void.

Li Qi landed on the platform, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Senior Yun Fang, I am Li Qi, and I have come to pay my respects on official business."

He was very respectful, not only out of respect for his senior, but also because he respected the Great Shaman Yun Fang, who had once helped him and whom Li Qi was grateful for.

"Official business? I think it's more like personal business," came Yun Fang's voice from inside, his tone somewhat joking and amiable.

Immediately, the scenery before Li Qi changed, and he appeared in the center of a square.

There were many people in the square.

These people were all frozen in place, as if they were encased in a time capsule. Looking at them...

They were both in great pain.

This scene is truly bizarre.

In a square, lay tens of thousands of people whose time had stopped. Many of these people were extraterrestrial beings with bizarre appearances, but they all had one thing in common: they were suffering terribly and about to die. These capsules were clearly meant to prolong their lives.

Meanwhile, the Great Shaman Yun Fang sat in the center of the square, gazing at the Illusionary Reality Domain above the sky, that misty expanse.

Li Qi walked over and asked, "Senior Yun Fang... what is this?"

"Oh, these are the people I pulled out of the Illusionary Reality Domain. Sigh, wishful thinking doesn't always come true." Yun Fang waved his hand. "By the way, you came to see me... about the demonic thoughts?"

Li Qi was now quite familiar with this feeling of mind reading, after all, he also possessed this ability to some extent. So he nodded and presented Li Shiwei's Daoist aura with both hands. "Please help me, senior. Your attainments in demonic thoughts and Daoist aura are well known. I think this Daoist aura will not be able to hide from your discerning eyes."

Yun Fang did not refuse, but simply reached out and took the wisp of Daoist charm into his hand, his expression serious.
