People are in reality, transcending the other side

Chapter 1004 Broken Sword
hum!
Just then, Li Qi's phone rang again.

I checked my phone and saw that someone had tagged all the members in the group chat.

However, it wasn't a class group, but a small group with only three people, called the Supernatural Research Institute.

This is a university club that Li Qi joined during his university years.

That was eight years ago, shortly after he acquired his Heroic Spirit status and became a "noble" Master.

Although his spirit was a slave with no redeeming qualities, Li Qi was young and ambitious.

Thinking about how many novels I've read feature protagonists who start like this, emphasizing the idea that "my fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of heaven."

The weakest Heroic Spirit can become the strongest Heroic Spirit—isn't that easy?!
Unfortunately, he waited a long time but never heard that sudden "ding" sound saying his cheat had been credited to his account.

So he decided to do his own research, so he looked up a lot of publicly available information and joined many related Master groups.

As for this supernatural research institute, it was a club he created at school with great ambition at that time.

He appointed himself as the director, and the other two members were deputy directors.

Of course, there were more than just the three of them eight years ago, but they gradually left the group after graduation.

Of the three who remained, one was like him, also a Heroic Spirit, and also started as a slave. The other was an ordinary person who firmly believed that the supernatural forces in this world were not just bizarre, but also included other things, such as cultivators, aliens, cosmic beings, energy life forms...

Du Churan: It's almost time for our agreed-upon seminar again, and this time I have a big surprise for you.
Du Churan: Facts have proven that the power of both humans and heroic spirits ultimately has its limits. To become extraordinary, one must surpass humanity.

Shen Xia: Did you gain some strange power?!
Du Churan: As expected of our young lady, she's so perceptive. She analyzed so much from just a few words I said.

Shen Xia: There's no such thing as a low-cost binding technique. Once you start down this path, there's no turning back.
Du Churan: I don't want to think about it anymore. Who told me I was so lucky to encounter such a bizarre event? Meeting this thing is less serious than getting hit by a car on the street. There's no other way; to survive in this strange realm, I have no choice but to surpass human capabilities.
Du Churan: Returning home in glory is like wearing fine clothes at night; I can't wait to show off my wealth and honor.

……

Li Qi, secretly observing the screen, naturally had images and thoughts surfacing in his mind.

They agreed to meet next Sunday, but as usual, Li Qi was absent.

To be precise, both Du Churan and Shen Xia died at the Mingguang Hotel on Saturday.

In fact, Li Qi in the future also had doubts several times about whether there was a big problem with this matter.

After all, everyone he was close to, everyone he had a good impression of, was wiped out in the same place in one fell swoop.

Such a coincidence usually only happens in stories.

And among the strange things, there is indeed this strange scriptwriting.

For example, the quill pen called "The Creator," the notebook called "The Weaver," and the obsidian gate called "Steins;Gate"...

More importantly, ten years later, Li Qi, who was not human, frantically killed the supernatural beings, which only hastened the extinction of humanity. This result made Li Qi suspect that everything he experienced in the future was arranged by something.

As for Shen Xia and Du Churan, Li Qi naturally had a good impression of them as well. On the one hand, it was the friendship that had been built up over the years, and on the other hand, he had also felt a stirring in his heart a long time ago.

He was very clear-headed, knowing that there was no possibility between them. If they were truly compatible, there would be no need to confess or express his feelings. If they were not compatible, confessing would be going against the grain and they wouldn't even be able to remain friends.

Over time, he naturally let it go.

In a sense, humans are inherently loving; before meeting the right person, it's easy to fall in love with everyone you meet.

"This is a huge causal anchor."

"But that makes it more interesting." "Seven days later, once the anchor point is stable enough, I'll be invincible."

Li Qi thought.

Meanwhile, he typed rapidly with both hands, and soon a long message appeared in the group chat.

Li Qi: How do you know I've already transcended the mortal realm and become invincible?!
Shen Xia: ? ? ?
Du Churan: ? ? ?

When someone posts a question mark, it doesn't mean they have doubts themselves, but rather that they think the other person has a problem.

However, Li Qi did not say much in the group chat at this moment. Instead, he had a slight thought and looked towards the east.

"interesting."

"It turns out that because I glanced into the future, I caused some kind of interference, and my future self found an opportunity."

"That makes sense. Under the power of the Heavenly Calamity, even the rules of time in this world are loose and chaotic, like a wisp of air. In theory, it is feasible for my future self to descend into this era in the form of a heroic spirit using some tools."

"After all, the existence of Heroic Spirits is itself a strange power, and their existence transcends time and space."

Li Qi glanced at it and then ignored it.

This so-called future self is nothing more than a rootless duckweed, a shadow without any foundation, belonging to some possibility of the future.

His very existence is the true, greatest terror of this world.

In essence, all the strange things combined are not as terrifying as him.

……

A warehouse, filled with mirrors, where light and shadow intertwine.

On the ground, strange magic circles were drawn with eerie, blood-red blood.

At the same time, some special strange objects were placed at many key nodes of the magic circle.

At the very center of the magic circle, a broken black sword was stuck.

On the hilt of the broken sword were mysterious symbols that conveyed the meaning of two words: Void Calamity!

This black, broken sword has a very mysterious origin; it is said to have fallen from the black sun thirty years ago.

This sword is incredibly powerful, possessing the ability to slay. As long as you wield it, you can see the death line of all things. Theoretically, it can even slay world-destroying monsters, as long as you can cut their death line.

However, this sword is not something that humans can use. Using this sword requires consuming invisible willpower. Once the willpower is exhausted, one will become a slave to the sword and sink into eternal slaughter.

Therefore, someone came up with a solution: to use some strange power to control this broken sword.

Of course, ordinary weirdness won't do.

Thus, the current situation arose: using the cause and effect of the broken sword, a suitable Heroic Spirit was artificially created so that the Heroic Spirit could wield the sword, and the Master only needed to control the Heroic Spirit.

Few people know that Heroic Spirits are a manifestation of a strange power, but they are not unknown.

It's normal to use the supernatural to control the supernatural in this era, and artificial heroic spirits are also feasible. However, the one who can connect the two is undoubtedly a genius.
