Among the nearly one thousand War Gods present, many cast curious gazes toward Li Qingxu.
They had heard a rumor that at the beginning of the month, a Quasi-Martial Artist named Li Qingxu had already reached the Perfect Level in movement techniques.
It was said that Lei Meng of the Thunder Dojo had rushed over excitedly to recruit him, only to leave dejectedly, and in the end, it seemed he had been recruited by the Limit Dojo.
Is it the same person?
Looking at the extremely youthful-looking Li Qingxu, these War Gods pondered in their hearts.
After all, going from a Quasi-Martial Artist to a High-Level War God in just one month was an impossibly large leap.
There were only 3,516 War Gods on the entire Earth, and only a few hundred were High-Level War Gods; it was extremely rare for a newly promoted War God to be a High-Level one.
But seeing Liu He standing beside him, they began to feel it might be the same person.
"According to the old rules, I still have to introduce you to them."
Liu He said with a light chuckle.
"Don't bother."
"Inspector Liu."
"Inspector Liu."
Along the way, many War Gods from the Limit Dojo stood up one after another to greet Liu He.
"Mm, this is Li Qingxu from our headquarters; his position is the same as mine."
Liu He introduced him to the surrounding War Gods of the Limit Dojo.
"Hiss, an Inspector?"
In an instant, the expressions in the eyes of the surrounding War Gods changed.
A High-Level War God, yet holding the same status as Inspector Liu.
One had to know that Inspector Liu had only been appointed to the position of Inspector by the Dojo Master after surpassing the War God level.
"Don't listen to his nonsense; I haven't officially taken up a post at the Dojo yet."
Li Qingxu spoke up.
Hearing this, Liu He pursed his lips.
He hadn't even taken a post yet, but his status was already higher than all of them; calling him an Inspector was already an understatement.
In a corner of the hall.
"Since it's your first time here today, it's my treat."
"The delicacies here—reality simply cannot compare to the Virtual Space."
Liu He smiled as he took the menu from the waiter nearby and handed it to Li Qingxu.
"Forget it, I'll treat you instead."
Li Qingxu took the menu, flipped through a few pages, shook his head, and handed it back to the waiter.
He signaled for the waiter to step away and that he would call him later.
"What, nothing you like?"
Liu He looked surprised, then chuckled and said, "Haha, I've already tried every dish here..."
"Holy crap!"
Liu He stared at the dish that had suddenly appeared on the table, his scalp instantly tingling.
A three-meter-long Roc, roasted to a golden brown, had appeared right on the dining table.
Furthermore, in the next instant, a wine decanter that looked like it was made of ice appeared, the liquid inside as bright red as blood.
"You!"
Liu He stared at Li Qingxu with eyes full of disbelief.
He hadn't ordered anything, yet these items had appeared out of thin air on the table.
One had to remember that this was the War God Palace; as one of the 52 Council Members, he hadn't even sensed a thing.
Moreover, there was only one establishment that sold food and drink in the entire War God Palace.
"Haha, try it and see if there's any difference."
Li Qingxu smiled and picked up the decanter to pour a glass for Liu He.
He couldn't exactly tell Liu He that he had added some permissions to the War God Palace.
If that got out, no one would dare to enter the War God Palace ever again.
"With tricks like this, I almost want to log out immediately."
Liu He suppressed the unease in his heart and spoke slowly.
If it weren't for the fact that there were no anomalies in the War God Palace at the moment, he would have run away.
This was his own consciousness inside the War God Palace; heaven knows if his consciousness were to vanish, whether he would even be able to wake up in the outside world.
"Rest easy. Since it's the War God Palace that Hong set up, how could anything possibly go wrong?"
Li Qingxu raised his wine glass and took a sip, his eyes lighting up instantly.
I have to say, the taste of this Immortal Divine Phoenix Nectar, simulated according to his memories, was still just as magnificent.
Although it lacked the actual effects of a divine medicine, the flavor was identical.
"That's hard to say."
Liu He shook his head, his tone filled with extreme skepticism.
The glass in front of him was shimmering with brilliant radiance, and a faint phantom of a divine phoenix could be seen soaring within it.
Seeing that Li Qingxu was perfectly fine after a glass, he finally raised his own and downed it in one gulp.
"Good wine!"
Liu He's eyes shone, and he couldn't help but shout.
The sensation was as if his entire being had transformed into a colossal phoenix, soaring through the boundless starry sky of the universe.
It was a feeling he had never experienced before; for a moment, it felt as if his consciousness had been sublimated.
Compared to this, the wine sold in the War God Palace was practically mud.
"Haha, then I'll get you some more."
Li Qingxu used his permissions to simulate another ten pots, then his figure vanished from the spot.
"It's a pretty decent place, all things considered."
Li Qingxu set his consciousness helmet aside.
At the very least, whenever he wanted to savor the delicacies of the Shrouding the Heavens world, he could drop by the War God Palace to reminisce for free.
Inside the cultivation room.
Li Qingxu sat cross-legged, his consciousness sinking into his Bitter Sea.
The Golden Bitter Sea surged, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled above, and the Life Spring at its center erupted with divine brilliance from time to time.
A golden Nine-Story Pagoda slowly rose and fell within the Life Spring, being baptized by divine power.
Suddenly, the sound of the Great Dao expounding its truths resonated within the Bitter Sea.
The nameless is the beginning of heaven and earth.
The named is the mother of all things.
In an instant, nine strange ancient characters were branded onto the body of the pagoda, causing the golden Nine-Story Pagoda to weave together the Dao and principles of the world.
At first, it shimmered like stars with dots of divine light, then it breathed and transformed like chaos, emerging from nothingness, shifting into a thousand forms without a fixed state.
It was as if it were the era of the birth of all things, where heaven and earth were defined, Yin and Yang complemented each other, and the convergence of Qi gave birth to all things, with their growth and decay, prosperity and destruction, constantly alternating in a cycle.
The nine ancient characters merged with the Nine-Story Pagoda, as if opening up the heavens and the earth, or perhaps recreating a world.
At this moment, the pagoda became profound and mysterious, unfathomable, as if derived from chaos, archaic and majestic.
"What a pity."
Li Qingxu sighed inwardly.
If only he had a Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi Root. The Nine-Story Pagoda he had refined at this moment was merely forged from divine patterns manifested by divine power.
Compared to the Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi Pagoda that protected his Dao in his past life, this current pagoda was like a castle in the air.
It would suffice for low realms, but once his cultivation level rose, it would ultimately be inadequate without being refined again with divine materials.
"I am already at the peak of the Life Spring Realm; it is time to break through."
Li Qingxu murmured. At the center of his Bitter Sea, the Life Spring gushed, and the source of his divine power boiled.
The spring eye at the bottom of the sea had widened many times over, endless and surging, occasionally shooting out rays of rosy light.
Immediately, he calmed his mind and absorbed cosmic energy with all his might.
The cells within his Sacred Body were crying out for nourishment, as if they had been starving for a long time.
As strands of cosmic energy poured in, the cells cheered and devoured them frantically.
The Dao Scripture operated automatically, and a powerful life fluctuation erupted within his body, making the Golden Bitter Sea as brilliant as a sun.
A sheet of golden divine radiance reflected outward, causing the entire training hall to shine with brilliant light.
Half a month later, a rumbling sound echoed in the room, like a tsunami reaching the heavens and thunder crashing, while streaks of rainbows shot out.
At this moment, within Li Qingxu's Golden Bitter Sea, a brilliant Divine Rainbow hung high above, spanning the firmament, incomparably magnificent.
