The Spacetime Black Hole Descends
The members of the Heavenly Palace Alliance stared blankly at the giant black and white cauldron of flames in the sky above Central Plains, and immediately realized that Li Changqing and Xiao Yan intended to refine the Hun Tiandi into Pill.
A longing arose in their hearts, especially in Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun, who were already at the Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng.
The two were unable to break through to the Dou Di realm because the Dou Qi Continent lacked Source Qi.
If Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun could obtain Pill refined from the essence of a Dou Di expert, they would definitely be able to break through to Dou Di.
High in the sky, with Xiao Yan's addition, Li Changqing's process of refining the Hun Tiandi accelerated considerably. It was estimated that he would be able to completely refine the Hun Tiandi in a few more days.
A few days later, the figure of the Hun Tiandi was no longer in the black and white flaming cauldron. In its place was a blood-red Pill that exuded a rich aura.
Li Changqing let out a long breath and stopped what he was doing.
He then opened his mouth and inhaled, drawing the Yin-Yang Flame back into his body, while simultaneously taking the blood-red Pill into his hand.
The next moment, Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun excitedly flew to Li Changqing's side, their faces showing a fawning expression:
"We have met Your Excellency Li Changqing. Your Excellency slew the Hun Tiandi and saved the entire Dou Qi Continent. You are truly the savior of the continent."
As they spoke, their eyes involuntarily drifted to the blood-red Pill in Li Changqing's hand, their intentions practically written all over their faces.
Li Changqing smiled, feigning ignorance, and asked, "I'm not actually that righteous. The reason I killed the Hun Tiandi was simply because I had a grudge against him, a sworn enemy."
Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun were taken aback. Logically, shouldn't they have acknowledged their own achievements or humbly mentioned Xiao Yan's help?
Why is Li Changqing not playing by the rules?
They originally intended to follow up on that statement and, taking advantage of Li Changqing's good mood, make a request to exchange for the blood-red Pill in Li Changqing's possession.
But Li Changqing's words effectively shut them down.
Zhu Kun's expression hardened, and he said with a forced smile, "Let me be frank, the Pill you have shouldn't be of much use to you."
"My Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan is willing to pay any price to exchange that Pill from you."
Not to be outdone, Gu Yuan echoed Zhu Kun's words, saying, "My Gu Clan is the same. Whatever my Gu Clan possesses, or whatever we can accomplish, please name it; we will not haggle!"
Zhu Kun glanced at Gu Yuan sideways, cursing inwardly.
Because he was trapped in the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion for a long time and was not in charge of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan for a long time, the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan had declined and was much weaker than when he was at its peak.
Moreover, he had only recently returned to the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, and in terms of clan foundation, he was definitely no match for the Gu Clan.
After saying that, Gu Yuan ignored Zhu Kun's gaze and instead winked at Xiao Yan.
The meaning couldn't be clearer: they wanted their good son-in-law to speak up and persuade Li Changqing to sell him the Pill.
Xiao Yan's face fell. He naturally understood Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun's desire to break through to the Dou Di.
But based on his understanding of Li Changqing, he knew that his words were most likely useless, and might even have the opposite effect.
Unless the Gu Clan or the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan can offer something that will tempt Li Changqing.
Xiao Yan glanced at Li Changqing, then shook his head at Gu Yuan, indicating that he was powerless to help.
Li Changqing refined the Hun Tiandi into Pill not to gain any benefits from other forces.
He is now Dou Di, and there is basically nothing in the entire Dou Qi Continent that is useful to him.
Since absorbing the Emperor-Slaying Ghost Blood Blade, the Yin-Yang Sword has probably reached the pinnacle of weapons on the Dou Qi Continent. Adding other materials or weapons to it would likely not have much effect.
As for cultivation techniques, Dou Technique, Pill, he has no need for them.
Li Changqing refined the Hun Tiandi into Pill simply to prepare for his journey to the next world.
After all, he could clearly feel that the world was strongly rejecting him, and he estimated that he would have to leave the Dou Qi Continent soon.
Li Changqing put away the Pill and shook his head. "I'm not selling these Pills. I have other uses for them, so don't even think about it."
Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun looked dejected, but since Li Changqing had already clearly refused, they dared not press the matter further.
Xiao Yan then looked at Li Changqing and asked, "Brother Qing, now that you've broken through to the Dou Di, what are your plans next?"
"Plans...?" Li Changqing looked up at the sky, utterly speechless.
Having just broken through to the Dou Di and stood at the true pinnacle of the Dou Qi Continent, he was about to be forced to leave.
What is the purpose of cultivation?
Of course, the goal is to achieve immortality, roam freely between heaven and earth, and do whatever one wants!
But Li Changqing didn't have time to do whatever he wanted before he had to leave. He even suspected that God was playing a cruel joke on him.
With a long sigh, Li Changqing said slowly, "I reckon we'll be leaving soon, so I'd better find a place to rest for a while."
"Leave? What do you mean? Do you mean leaving the Dou Qi Continent? Then, Brother Qing, where will you go next?"
Xiao Yan scratched his head, not understanding what Li Changqing was talking about. Moreover, judging from Li Changqing's tone, it seemed that he was forced to leave, rather than leaving voluntarily.
Li Changqing didn't want to explain too much. He looked down at the devastated Central Plains, then looked south, deciding to find a beautiful place in the south to rest for a while.
Just as Li Changqing was about to turn and leave, a sudden feeling of unease washed over him, and he abruptly looked up at the sky.
Suddenly, a crack appeared in the sky. This was not Void rift, but Spacetime Black Hole.
It is filled with a large amount of Space-Time Turbulence, and fragment-like images flash by from time to time, which are the records of someone's life.
Xiao Yan, Gu Yuan, and Zhu Kun, sensing the terrifying Spacetime Black Hole, were all so frightened that they retreated a great distance.
They sensed a deadly danger within; if they entered, they would likely be torn apart by the terrifying Space-Time Turbulence, or even have all traces of themselves erased from the world.
Li Changqing hadn't expected that the Spacetime Black Hole would appear right after he finished speaking, before he even had time to rest. He was completely enraged, and his body trembled violently with anger.
He raised his middle finger at the Spacetime Black Hole and cursed loudly:
"Go to hell, are you kidding me? So rushed, are you in such a hurry to be reincarnated? Can't you just let me rest for a while?"
Li Changqing was truly angry. He cursed God and his ancestors for eighteen generations, using vulgar and obscene language.
Even Xiao Yan, who was also Otherworlder, exclaimed that he was too ashamed to look.
As for Gu Yuan and Zhu Kun, who had never heard of modern language arts, they were even more so. If it weren't for the fact that it was Li Changqing, a powerful Dou Di, who was cursing them, they probably would have rebuked him harshly.
