He traveled to Lasuo World, where the Golden Horn Race welcomed him and prepared to let him study their Sacred Stele.

• King Qi Jian told Li Qi that he would receive one-third of Marquis Hai Huo and Marquis Qiu Yin's assets, and transferred 4 million chaos units to him.
• Li Qi considered how contribution points and the Human Race's other currencies compared, then found only about 1,000 chaos units' worth of items in Haska's world ring.

• The young Golden Horn Race members doubted Elder Rient's claim that Li Qi could defeat Leo, until Rient revealed Li Qi's universe-level law comprehension and warned them to leave him alone.
• Elder Rient reflected that the Golden Horn Race sought human geniuses as allies because the vassal race needed powerful support to survive and develop.
• Li Qi considered the Golden Horn Race's difficult position and chose to study the Sacred Stele before exploring other parts of Lasuo World.
• Elder Rient told Li Qi that he could split his one year of Sacred Stele study across multiple visits, then showed him the Codex Tower, Sacred Stele Tower, and his cultivation residence.
• Li Qi asked his four king-level undying guards and Elder Rient to accompany him, then set out for the Sacred Stele Tower to study the origin law of gold.

• Li Qi went to the Codex Tower with Miu Li and asked Miya to take him directly to the 999th floor.
• As Miya explained how Golden Horn Race members earned contribution points, Li Qi asked how much the Golden Soul secret technique cost.

When he returned to his residence, he found Leo and a crowd of young Golden Horn Race members blocking the entrance, and accepted Leo’s challenge.

• Miya told Li Qi that 'Golden Soul' cost 1.68 billion contribution points, and Li Qi read its trial edition before deciding it did not suit his needs.

Li Qi agreed to battle Leo, the Golden Horn Race’s greatest young genius, and the duel drew more than a billion spectators eager for a victory over a human. As the fighters entered the arena, Leo believed Li Qi’s recent breakthrough gave him a chance to win, while Li Qi prepared to crush him before the crowd.

• Li Qi agreed to fight Leo that day, and the Golden Horn Race youths spread news of the duel through their Virtual Universe network.

• Leo faced Li Qi beneath the crowd’s cheers and resolved to defeat him, believing Li Qi had not yet reached his peak Domain Lord strength.

Li Qi revealed his enormous true body and dominated Leo’s opening attacks, blocking and then crushing the seventh form of the Yan Shen Armament. Leo unleashed the eighth form, Golden Sword Slashes the Void, leaving the battle poised for a more serious contest.

• Li Qi appeared in his hundred-meter-tall true body, stunning the Golden Horn Race spectators and making the watching Immortals doubt Leo could win.

• Li Qi arrived at Beast God Canyon, registered for three years of study, and recorded the giant Beast God Statue’s 90,729 scales.
• Li Qi’s attempt to carve the Gray Jade Beast God Statue triggered a crushing pressure that injured his body and soul, revealing that its scales carried profound fusion laws and Beast God artistic conception.
• Li Qi experimented with carving replicas and learned that a complete statue had to be carved in one uninterrupted effort to trigger fluctuations in the universe’s origin laws.
• A disguised high king-level assassin watched Li Qi from across the canyon and despaired that the four king-level undyings protecting him made an assassination impossible.
• After eighty-two years in Lasuo World, Li Qi improved his gold and spatial origin law comprehension and Beast God artistic conception, then received Ice Peak Lord’s email saying, “You have gone down the wrong path.”

Ice Peak Lord helped Li Qi realize he should follow his own Wood-Space cultivation path rather than imitate Luo Feng, then rewarded his progress as a Black Warrior. The fourth stage of Li Qi’s Highest Points Mission ordered him to judge thirty-two Royce Family members, including eleven brothers and elders, and he left Lasuo World to confront the task.
