Rise and Fall

During this century, Li Qi witnessed the rise and fall of the True Dao Sect. In just one hundred years, the True Dao Sect experienced its most prosperous period and then rapidly declined.

The reason is nothing more than empty talk and unrealistic pursuits.

Over the course of this century, that group of students began to take over from the elders who had died of old age. With the ascension of the Supreme Ancestor and the passing of the elders, a new generation of young people began to take over the True Dao Sect.

Then, they fully utilized their skills in empty talk and theoretical discussions, successfully bringing the True Dao Sect to the brink of collapse.

Afterwards, other sects outside, coveting all the resources that the True Dao Sect already possessed, began to invade.

This time, the True Dao Sect suffered a complete defeat. The city fell, people died, the mountain gate was split, and everything was looted.

The True Dao Sect has been established for six hundred years.

For the first hundred years, we endured hardship and poverty, but we united as one and established the mountain gate.

For four hundred years, the sect continued to develop and climb upwards, eventually nurturing an immortal. The sect flourished, with countless disciples, which eventually led to a prevalence of empty talk and abstract philosophy. Such people gradually climbed to high positions in the sect, excelling at metaphysical discussions but unable to do any practical work, which they could only delegate to those below them.

Those below them seized power through this system, effectively becoming figures similar to 'clerks'.

Yes, those in high positions are the boastful 'governors,' while those who actually do the work become 'administrators' with lifetime tenure.

With the separation of political and administrative affairs, those who do practical work begin to sideline those who engage in empty talk and abstract concepts. However, these practical people are unable to master the Cultivation Method and cannot rise to the top. As a result, most of them can only channel their excess energy from cultivation into pleasure.

There's no way to continue spiritual practice, the Cultivation Method have reached their limit, but is there an end to pleasure?

No, there isn't.

Thus, these officials who held real power and had the backing of the True Dao Sect began to amass wealth on a large scale, making it their life's goal.

Their path is blocked, so they have nothing to do but enjoy themselves. They don't have any lofty ideals... What's the use of having such lofty ideals?

What about the end of the universe, the meaning of life, where I came from and where I'm going...?

Is it useful?

Better to have a beautiful concubine, delicious food, fine wine, and a luxurious house.

More and more beautiful concubines, delicious food, fine wine, and luxurious mansions—the list goes on and on.

One beautiful concubine isn't enough, ten are needed. But quantity isn't enough either; they should have special attributes. Being able to only play the zither, sing, and dance is considered inferior. Ideally, they should be cultivators, or have a naturally alluring body that provides pleasure when being beaten, or be members of powerful clans who have fallen into prostitution. In any case, they must have something sensational to offer.

Not satisfied with delicacies from land and sea, they want to eat dragon liver and phoenix marrow. They're no longer eating for the taste, but for the novelty. Whoever can be more novel and rarer has more face.

No longer are magnificent houses enough; during times of plague, houses will be coated with ointment, not for any other reason than for amusement.

The competition and extravagance are not about who is better, but about having what others don't.

The top management is immersed in contemplation every day, while those below are indulging in pleasure. Everyone has their own things to do, and for a time, a kind of balanced and fantastical situation has been formed.

But...

With the upper echelons neglecting production and the lower echelons indulging in extravagance, the True Dao Sect's wealth quickly dwindled.

The earliest one was a large city called Di Guang City, which was similar to Bailu City. It was there that the weaknesses of the True Dao Sect were discovered.

Then, they started a war.

Relying on its past strength, the True Dao Sect managed to defeat Di Guangcheng with great difficulty.

The battle was very difficult, and they didn't even have the strength to pursue the enemy to Guangcheng.

However, it's like being in the ocean and having your skin torn open by a shark.

When blood flows out, it's telling the other sharks that there's food here, but the food is weak.

Thus, in the last hundred years, the True Dao Sect was quickly destroyed.

Countless people, everyone wants to take a bite.

The final result was that the True Dao Sect, this fat pig that was too fat to move, was completely divided up, and everything fell apart.

The seeds sown by Li Qi seem to have failed to sprout. Without sufficient guidance and strength, they ultimately have no way to connect the path to enlightenment with reality.

Li Qi just watched without interfering from beginning to end.

The True Dao Sect is like a seed that sprouts and grows into a big tree. Now, this big tree is rotten by termites, and it is declining and dying.

It's just like any other ordinary force.

During the development of the True Dao Sect, countless other forces were destroyed, and the True Dao Sect, like them, was swallowed up by history.

Chang You reached the summit of the mountain.

He is no longer a boy, but Ascension Realm cultivator who has lived for over a hundred years.

Yes, he ascended to immortality in a hundred years. He's a genius among geniuses. He might be able to figure out how to truly ascend to immortality within two hundred years.

Chang You walked to the top of the mountain and looked down at the city ruins.

He studied and practiced here a hundred years ago.

At that time, the True Dao Sect was very powerful and had immense influence. No force in the surrounding area dared to compete with the True Dao Sect and could only submit to it.

However, in just one hundred years, the once-prosperous city had been reduced to ruins after the war.

"Ah..." Chang You sat on the mountaintop, looking down at everything below, lost in memories.

Back then, he was ridiculed as a vulgar person by others because he was not good at philosophical discussions, and in the end he did not get a good position. He was also Heart Qi, so he simply left the sect and ventured out on his own.

Once outside, he realized... how vast and distant the sect truly was.

In the outside world, it's a dog-eat-dog world. Everyone is only focused on the small space in front of them, and no one is willing to look up at the sky or plan their own path.

All they know is to get stronger, stronger, and keep getting stronger. They don't want to do anything else. Doing anything else is considered "neglecting their duties." Even if you create a new technique or establish a new cultivation system, everyone will only ask one question, "How's its killing power? How much will it increase your combat strength?"

If their combat power doesn't increase much, they'd rather practice those outdated techniques that squeeze out their potential, or even sacrifice their lives, to improve their combat Cultivation Method.

The standard for measuring a spell is always its "power".

This made Chang You very uncomfortable.

However, it gave him a different feeling, which was 'being down-to-earth'.

These people are so down-to-earth that they have lost the ability to plan for the long term.

Chang You, however, was different.

He managed to combine the advantages of both.

Keep your feet on the ground Looking Up at the Stars.

We must solidify our foundation, but never abandon our lofty aspirations.

He found his own rules of conduct and knew what his goals were.

Thus, with his Upper Heaven and ability to act, he finally reached the pinnacle of humanity within a hundred years, having experienced countless life-and-death crises, and became a great master of the Ascension Realm.

In fact, he had returned to the True Dao Sect before, but by then the True Dao Sect had already split up.

Yes, when faced with external enemies, the True Dao Sect did not unite, but instead began to split internally and started a civil war.

It's all because of the 'dispute over the Dao'. The various sects are at odds with each other, which has led to this division. If anyone tries to mediate, their background will be investigated immediately, and everyone will start arguing and cursing.

The True Dao Sect is no longer the small sect it once was. Over the years, there have been constant frictions among them, and each sect has its own old grievances. Today you do this, tomorrow I do that. Although there is no need to settle scores like this on ordinary days, with a major enemy at hand, everyone seems to feel that... they can give each other a push.

Push the other person to their death.

This became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Looking up at the sky, searching for direction, and discussing the true meaning and essence of the world—this is the foundation upon which the True Dao Sect originated.

However, what brings you prosperity will also bring you ruin.

Something can bring you prosperity, but the decline that comes with it is also inseparable; very few things can be avoided.

Seriously, his death was hilarious.

Chang You smiled and shook his head. He had only come here to reminisce about the past.

His motivation to strive for excellence actually stemmed from witnessing the ascension of the Supreme Ancestor of the True Dao Sect when he was still a student.

Such a magnificent scene, which countless people looked up to, was followed by divine thunder from the sky, and ninety-nine days of tribulation in the mortal world.

It filled him with a sense of grandeur, and he vowed to climb that mountain, to make everyone in the city take notice, and finally, amidst their envious gazes, ascend to the summit.

Unfortunately, a hundred years later, he had already qualified for ascension, but everything had changed. The True Dao Sect was gone, and the city below had become ruins.

Even if he ascends to heaven atop this mountain again, there will be no one to see him.

After sitting on the mountaintop for a while, Chang You suddenly noticed that there was someone behind him.

He turned his head and saw an unexpected person, which made this great cultivator in the Ascension Realm freeze in place.

After a long pause, he asked suspiciously, "Classmate...?"

He had a slight recollection of this person.

A hundred years ago, at the True Dao Sect's school, he seemed to have... seen this person before.

"Ah, I didn't expect you to still remember me, Chang You. I thought you had forgotten me after all these years." Li Qi smiled and walked to his side, standing with him on the mountaintop, overlooking the ruins below.

"You... you've also come here to see what's old?" Chang You suddenly said with a touch of emotion.

The other person is probably not as good as me, but they've survived until now, so they must have been one of the survivors back then, right? Maybe we can have a good talk.

People with similar experiences will share common feelings.

Shared feelings can be called true friends.

True friends are hard to find in this world.

As for Li Qi, sensing the other party's superficial thinking, he smiled and then said, "A true friend is hard to find, but a like-minded person is even harder to find. Do you want a true friend or a like-minded person?"

These words made Chang You's eyes widen slightly.

This guy's words are quite insightful.

What is a true friend?

A true friend is someone who understands you, who clearly understands your thoughts, worries, and troubles. If you could have a true friend in this world, life would be much easier.

But it's different with those who share the same path. They may not understand you, but they can move forward with you and always be by your side. They may not understand what you are thinking, but their decisions will be the same as yours, and you can move forward hand in hand.

Is it more important to have someone who understands you, or to have someone who walks with you?

"You have an interesting way of speaking, but since you also call me classmate, then I should remember correctly." Chang You smiled with relief, "It's great to still be able to see people from the True Dao Sect."

"I am not a member of the True Dao Sect, but... the True Dao Sect does have some connection with me," Li Qi said.

"It's alright, as long as we have connections. After all, this is my birthplace. Now that I've fallen to this state, I don't know what to do," Chang You said calmly, his sleeves fluttering, displaying the demeanor of a master.

Li Qi was much more unassuming. He simply sat down to the side and asked, "So, do you think... you qualify as a disciple of the True Dao Sect?"

"No, I'm different from them, and it's precisely because of this difference that I've been able to survive until now. But... perhaps I still bear some resemblance to them," Chang You replied.

"That's good. By the way, do you have any plans to take on apprentices?" Li Qi asked.

"Yes, I do have some, but I definitely won't accept you as a disciple," Chang You said with a smile. As a great master of the Ascension Realm, his standards for accepting disciples were very high.

But when he looked back...

Li Qi had vanished without a trace, disappearing from the spot.

Chang You had maintained his air of superiority, was dumbfounded.

Where are they?

Did I just see a ghost?

The True Dao Sect has fallen; its remains have been devoured and become nourishment for numerous immortal and mortal sects.

But did it really just disappear without a trace?

No.

Li Qi chose not to interfere because there was no need.

Because he knew that history progresses in a spiral.

If history is likened to a spiral drawn at random, its curves are by no means precise. History begins its journey slowly from an unseen point, spiraling and moving gradually. However, its circles grow larger and larger, its flight becomes faster and more agile, until finally, it spirals like a dazzling comet, merely brushing past its old path from time to time.

Whenever you pass by an old road, it gives you the feeling that "history has gone back to the past," but that's not actually the case.

Because history merely brushes past the old things, but history itself, with each turn, gets closer to infinity; the endless spiral is the path of civilization.

Many years later, when we look back at this spiral, we will find that through this constant brushing past, history has unknowingly developed to a point that was absolutely unimaginable before.

Don't take those words about stagnation seriously. Although there are always some fools who try to erase progress from history and see only a few similarities between the modern and ancient times and conclude that the modern era has not changed, such stubbornness is meaningless and only proves that they are fools.

Because facts always show that history is progressing faster and faster.

Just like now, the great tree of the True Dao Sect has fallen, but its seeds have already scattered and flown away.

It's just like— Chang You, who once reached the summit of the True Dao Sect.

The mortal realm of the immortals tore apart the True Dao Sect, but people like Chang You will continue to move forward.

What was torn apart was only the True Dao Sect, not the seed of 'Pursuing the Path'.

The spirit of pursuing the Dao has already spread to the mortal world, which is like a stagnant pool in the celestial realm.

Li Qi left the gates of the True Dao Sect and quietly headed to his next destination.

Look at what kind of sprouts these seeds will produce.

Another two hundred years have passed.

Chang You Heaven Creation Gate, preparing to ascend to heaven, but later died in this tribulation.

Before his death, he had raised three disciples, all of whom had reached the Primordial Spirit Realm.

Li Qi visited them one by one, and then returned home laughing heartily.

Another two hundred years have passed, and geniuses have emerged in great numbers. Everyone can gaze at the stars, yet also keep their feet on the ground, with clear goals, a well-defined path of cultivation, and extraordinary action.

Then, the mortal realm where Li Qi lived entered a phase where these geniuses rose up in great numbers.

On this flat continent, these young geniuses continue to tell their own stories, constantly pushing the limits that their predecessors could reach.

A man carrying a sword entered the gates of an evil sect. With a single stroke, he cleaved a thousand miles of rivers and mountains in two, his Sword Qi soaring into the sky, drawing the attention of the entire world.

A man was drinking, and in his drunken stupor, he splashed ink and wrote magnificent articles, his talent so great that even gods and ghosts were astonished.

In the desolate Northwest, sects fought amongst themselves, and famine led to cannibalism. Some traveled ten thousand miles, and after passing through, all ten thousand miles were peaceful.

The hermit on the mountaintop remains untouched by worldly affairs.

The imperial court at the foot of the mountain, filled with laughter, anger, and curses.

All of this has led to the emergence of a new generation of young people who, compared to the petty scheming of the powerful in the past, possess a more carefree and spirited demeanor, and are filled with a sense of pride.

They still consider combat power as their absolute core competitiveness, but beyond combat power, they have many other pursuits.

These pursuits did not hinder them; on the contrary, they made them stronger.

The one who shattered the evil sect's gate liked to paint and was good at Swordsmanship, but his painting skills were not so great.

The man who was drinking wanted to create new characters, feeling that the existing characters were insufficient to express his talent and ideas.

The traveler desires to eliminate injustice from the world, but he doesn't know how, and is currently seeking guidance and learning.

Besides these, there are many, many more people.

In Li Qi's view, they are still very immature, because what they are doing is only exploring the meaning of their own lives, that is, exploring the 'inner way' and how they should act, but they have not yet explored the outer way or the true meaning of the universe.

But that's good; do what you're capable of.

To explore the great Dao of Heaven and Earth requires extremely profound cultivation, an unparalleled understanding of oneself, knowing why one acts, and thoroughly comprehending and defining one's own Dao. Only in this way can one explore the external world.

For them, who are only at the eighth rank now, to be able to explore themselves is already quite impressive.

Ultimately, as long as one achieves harmony between the Dao within one's body and the Dao in the outside world, unifying the subjective and objective, then one can be considered to have made progress in cultivating the Dao.

However, Li Qi was not prepared to wait that long.

No need.

This indicates that the trend of pursuing the Dao has already gained momentum, and his guidance and planning over the past thousand years are gradually becoming apparent.

All that remains is for these people to gradually erode and devour this world.

This is what 'changing the world' means.

Or use a stronger tone to express it—

This is a complete transformation.

Why do people generally believe that if they traveled to ancient times, modern people's thoughts and systems could easily defeat the ancients?

It is precisely because of the different understandings of the 'Tao' that the modern understanding of the 'Tao' is more profound.

Therefore, the modern "Dao" can erode the ancient "Dao", ultimately leading to the replacement of the Great Dao and a complete transformation of the world.

For the past thousand years, Li Qi has been doing this.

He wants to use the Dao of the world to cover the Dao of the Heavenly Realm.

Even if it's just in the mortal world.

This is a way to glean insights into the thoughts of the higher-ups in the Celestial Realm and see how they will respond.

However... a thousand years have passed, which is 0.11 years in the outside world, but the Celestial Realm seems to have no reaction.

The unique cosmic light here has a time flow rate of one to ten thousand, while the time given to Li Qi outside is one hundred years.

Li Qi didn't want to actually stay here for a million years, so he got up from his little house.

Over the course of a thousand years, Li Qi has constantly changed his residence. More than two years ago, he moved to this small village.

Stepping outside, there was a small river. On the riverbank, a woman was washing clothes, carrying a child on her back, while several other children were playing nearby.

"Ah! Brother Li." The woman greeted Li Qi immediately upon seeing him.

They're all neighbors in the village. This young man, Brother Li, is quite capable; he can treat other people's illnesses, so everyone in the village likes him.

"Sister-in-law, washing clothes? That must be hard work," Li Qi said with a smile.

"It's not hard work at all. It used to be hard, but you took good care of my back last time, and now I have strength again. My hands aren't numb anymore either. It's much better than before," the woman said happily.

"That's good." Li Qi nodded. "By the way, sister-in-law, I might be leaving soon. Could you help me figure out how to sell this house and the medicinal herbs in my house? And share the money with the neighbors."

"Huh? You're leaving?" The woman was taken aback.

"Well, it's about time. We should go," Li Qi said, looking up at the sky.

"Sigh, you're a capable person. I knew you wouldn't stay long. But... where are you going? We still have an oxcart. I'll have the head of the household take you there." The woman immediately said, "As for the house, we can sell it for cash and use the proceeds for our journey. Why lose it?"

"It's alright, you can all accept it. You're a fair person, you definitely won't keep it for yourself, so let everyone share it equally." Li Qi waved his hand.

He knew this woman well; she was indeed a good person, otherwise he wouldn't have become her neighbor.

Then he continued, "I don't need the oxcart. I'm going somewhere quite far, so I won't need it."

"It's a bit far? You're not going to the city, are you? The city is over 600 li away!" The woman was somewhat surprised, her tone filled with worry.

Li Qi was somewhat pleased.

A thousand years ago, such a woman could never have appeared in the mortal realm of the celestial realm.

Kindness is an extremely luxurious and precious quality; those who cannot survive are incapable of being kind.

The fact that even an ordinary village woman can now possess kindness shows that the living environment in Xiantian has greatly improved.

It's like taking a canary with you when you go down into a mine.

Canaries cannot live in the harsh environment of mines; they would suffocate quickly.

The fact that we can now hear the gentle chirping of canaries shows that the environment has improved considerably.

Li Qi was happy because of this.

"It's even further than that; I want to go to the heavens," Li Qi said.

After he finished speaking, the heavenly gate suddenly opened in the sky, and heavenly thunder gathered.

An immense pressure descended from the sky, and a special fluctuation emanated from the Heavenly Gate, spreading around at the speed of light.

All cultivators within a radius of ten thousand miles immediately turned their attention to this place.

What's going on? Is there a powerful, reclusive being here?! Is he about to ascend to immortality?!

The Heavenly Gate opens, the tribulation of ascension arrives!

Someone is about to ascend to immortality here!

The news spread instantly to various places, and people viewed the Heavenly Gate in various ways.

But in the next instant, before even the woman could react, Li Qi suddenly clenched one hand into a fist and swung it violently towards the sky!

The Heavenly Gate is shattered!

The gazes drawn to his ascension were all stunned.

"Sister-in-law, when the Spiritual Qi comes down, take a few more breaths; it'll prolong your life," Li Qi said with a smile. He then rushed into the sky, shattered the remaining heavenly gates with one foot, forcibly tore open the formation, and barbarically squeezed in!

In that instant, all the Ascension Realm cultivators who had been focusing their attention on this were dumbfounded.

It turns out that the Heavenly Gate can be broken.

It turns out that ascension doesn't require undergoing tribulations.

So this is what it means to be strong—so strong that even heaven and earth submit to you.

But what they didn't know was that it wasn't heaven and earth that were yielding.

Those Heaven's Gate Controller of the Immortal Realm.

Li Qi departed from the mortal realm and grabbed the throat of the Heaven's Gate Controller with one hand.

It's just a mere sixth-rank official; it's not even worth Li Qi's attention.

After breaking through the Heavenly Gate, he directly arrived at another level of the Immortal Realm, the 'True World'.

He gripped the Heaven's Gate Controller with one hand, then looked up at the sky.

Sure enough, it was just like what I had seen before.

The black ocean, towering mountains, and floating palaces together form a large-scale formation!

Who is it?

A magnificent voice came from above.

Li Qi gently put down the sixth-rank Heaven's Gate Controller and then said to him, "Stay away."

The other party retreated without hesitation.

As he retreated, dark clouds began to gather around him.

The sea churns, and the black water surges thousands of feet high!

A storm raged, and the raging waves soared straight into the sky!

Immediately, a will descended from the high and mighty palace complex.

An indescribable, overwhelming malevolent Sha Qi descended from the sky.

The oppressive aura of killing intent was like burying the land and sea.

The killing light is broken, the wings are severed, and the vast ocean is exhausted.

Looking down at the autumn waves, the common people seem insignificant.

Suddenly, hundreds of waves surged up in the mountains and seas, distorting the surrounding scenery. Islands drifted and swirled, and the scenery was shrouded in mist. From beneath the black sea, terrifying and monstrous demons burst forth.

Hundreds of millions of demons, crowding around Li Qi, surged towards him. The sheer number of demons blotted out the sky, dimming the sun and moon, and plunging the world into darkness!

Even the smallest demons were the size of a house, while the largest were as huge as mountains. They crowded together and rushed towards Li Qi.

With the appearance of demons, countless diseases, such as ecchymosis, exhaustion, malaria, eczema, widowerhood, and eczema, began to attach themselves to Li Qi's body. His body was filled with evil seeds, his muscles and bones were sluggish, his blood vessels were blocked, and he was left destitute.

But the next moment, Li Qi made a hand Hand Seals, and the Dharma image behind him unfolded.

Suddenly, a Dharma image, hundreds of millions of miles tall, rose up!

Looking at the form again, the mind is like a palace, the position of the disciples is like the suburbs, the joints are like a hundred rivers, and the spaces between the skin are like four crossroads. The form is cut off by its four limbs, but connected by the line of cause and effect. It starts in a leisurely courtyard, in the blue sky, grasps the tail of the constellation, recites the ultimate words, chews on the essence, breathes the sun, and a semi-transparent Star Official appears faintly behind it.

A mere human being manifests the phenomena of an entire world.

The horde of demons that had previously blotted out the sky was now nothing more than a handful before this Dharma image.

With a flick of his wrist, Li Qi's Dharma Image absorbed an invisible force, gathering countless demons into a ball. The Dharma Image held the ball in its palm, and with a gentle squeeze, blood spurted out, leaving only a pile of remnants.

Although this pile of debris is as huge as a planet.

However, because the gravity of the Celestial Realm is the Earth's Magnetic Force, rather than gravity in the ordinary sense, it does not collapse internally, but instead all fall downwards.

Li Qi casually tossed the debris into the sea, creating a giant wave that stretched for tens of thousands of miles.

Then, Li Qi raised his head, and the Dharma image behind him also raised its head.

Even such a massive Dharma image appears tiny compared to this mountain.

So Li Qi said, "Great."

As soon as he finished speaking, his Dharma image and the Star Official behind him suddenly enlarged, their heads reaching the sky and their feet touching the ground. Mysterious characters intertwined, embodying the natural order of heaven and earth. They descended to the earth to follow the principles of yin and yang, breathing in harmony with the natural order. They continued to grow taller, as if they were about to crush that majestic mountain. One hand grasped the floating palace complex in the sky!

Li Qi continued to grow larger. Although he did not reach the level of "reaching the Thirty-Three Heavens above and the Eighteen Levels of Hell below," he was still as large as the world in terms of body and eyes as large as the sun and moon. Soon, he became as huge as that mountain. His Dharma form stretched out his hands and was about to grab the palace complex, looking as if he was going to crush it directly!

But at that moment, a sword suddenly descended from the palace complex in the sky—

The sword's light was as white as frost and snow, and its intricately carved gold rings exuded martial might.

A vast expanse of land transforms into one form, like divine soldiers descending from the Jade Hall!

The sea of clouds veils the face, the starlight shines like candles, the gale sweeps away the light silk, the sword light first travels on the sea, only to see the vast dark Milky Way with clear waves, grinding the clouds, shattering the jade wheel, reflecting the mountain shadows, the sea and mountains fall upside down in the wind, like a newly polished silver mirror, the light shines through the sky, and a chill rises to the whole body!

This sword strike shattered Li Qi's Dharma form in an instant, leaving Li Qi no time to react!

Such sharp Sword Qi! Moreover, it is a fusion of martial arts and Daoism. It is a sword strike made using Daoist methods, but it contains the Martial Way Divine Intent!

Yes, he lacks Martial Dao Inner Qi, but possesses extraordinary Martial Way Divine Intent.

This divine intent is 'unparalleled in the world'.

In this world, my sword is unparalleled.

With a single sword drawn, unparalleled on the battlefield, only one can survive.

Even Li Qi's Dharma form collapsed under this sword strike!

It should be understood that for an ordinary fifth-rank cultivator, the collapse of their Dharma Form means a complete defeat, because the Dharma Form is the complete manifestation of a person's cultivation, Divine Ability, Dao Lineage. If the Dharma Form collapses, it means that all your Divine Ability and your Dao Path can be defeated by the opponent.

However, it was not the case for Li Qi... It was merely a collapse of his Dharma form, a mere fatal injury.

His inner world was then activated.

Within his body lies a fifth-grade world of extremely high quality and perfect perfection.

Therefore, as long as the world does not dry up, Li Qi will always be at his peak, and all his injuries and Divine Ability consumption will be borne by the world.

Under normal circumstances, a fifth-grade world can accommodate dozens of fifth-grade cultivators simultaneously.

In other words, if you want to deplete the world, you should first shatter Li Qi fifty times.

Li Qi's Dharma form was restored, and the Star Official behind him clenched their fists and fiercely struck the palace complex in the sky.

Above the palace complex, the formation was activated, revealing a cluster of stars and the pressing power of heaven and earth!

Behind Li Qi was a massive Dharma image, and behind the Dharma image were even more massive Star Official, three layers superimposed together, three different Divine Ability and Dao principles combined with each other.

The power of heaven and earth?

Shaman are the ancestors who manipulate the power of heaven and earth!

There's no rival in the entire universe yet!

Li Qi's inner world expanded, the formation collapsed, and the Star Official's Yellow Dragon went straight to the heart of the palace complex, directly piercing through it!

(Please vote for me with a monthly pass!)
