People are in reality, transcending the other side

Chapter 1130 The young disciple yearns to make a name for himself

The events at Longxiang Temple spread like wildfire throughout the martial arts world. After killing the four top masters, Abbot Xuanxin and Monk Jiukong, both celestial beings, were also casually killed by Li Qi.

As for the remaining minions, they were naturally left to the Demon Emperor and the Evil Lord. Li Qi didn't care about any fish that escaped the net; under the general trend, a few fish that escaped the net couldn't cause any waves.

He couldn't possibly become the Demon Emperor of the Demonic Sect and still have to personally deal with the minions. That's why he brought along two top experts.

As for the other experts in the Demonic Sect, none of them are Celestials or Humans, and their speed is too slow; bringing them along would only be a burden.

Including the initial Dragon Elephant Venerable, Li Qi had absorbed the power of seven Celestials in a short period of time. This power burned fiercely in the furnace that Li Qi's body had transformed into. Under the tempering and nourishment of the primordial fire, Li Qi's demonic embryo had acquired an indestructible quality.

There are three stages of a Grandmaster, but once you reach the Celestial Realm, the distinction becomes blurred. There is no distinction between early, middle, and late stages. Everyone's cultivation methods and paths are different, and the characteristics of people in this realm are also incredibly diverse.

It could even be said that at this stage, the difference in skill level truly becomes apparent.

Even among those considered to be at the peak, the best and the ordinary can differ by more than tenfold in terms of skill and spiritual attainment.

The best among them have a great chance of proving the myth, while the latter have no chance of even touching the edge of the myth.

In this situation, the strength of a martial arts master can only be known after a fight, and one can only use oneself as a reference to determine the level of martial arts cultivation.

As far as Li Qi is concerned, his Celestial Realm is a process of demonic transformation. When the demonic embryo transforms into pure Yang and refines all the Yin dregs within it, that will be the time when he proves his mythology and enters the demonic transformation stage.

In fact, the martial arts primordial spirit is pure yang, but this kind of pure yang and the pure yang of the demonic fetus are two different concepts. The demonic fetus is formed from the primordial spirit, but it is not the primordial spirit. Its quality is higher and more wondrous.

But this is just his path. Different martial arts lead to different paths, and every path leads to mythology.

"The combined power of seven celestial masters only pushed my demonic fetus's transformation into pure yang from 10% to 20%. This is partly because my foundation is too deep. After all, how can the power they painstakingly cultivated compare to the power I achieved through my extraordinary wisdom and talent? Those people did not grasp the essence of martial arts, nor did they comprehend the Dao of Heaven's operation."

"Just like the Way of Heaven, which encompasses all things and transforms all things, how can there be any talk of impurity or impurity?"

"There aren't many Celestial Realm experts in the entire Central Plains. And if someone really wants to hide, they are hard to find. If you want to improve quickly, the Qi of Heaven is more cost-effective."

"The earliest batch of players made rapid progress in their martial arts and must have gained a lot of Heavenly Dao Points."

Inside the scripture pavilion of Longxiang Temple, Li Qi was browsing through various classic martial arts manuals.

Although there were many coded messages, Li Qi could not read them at all. In his eyes, Buddhist scriptures were demonic scriptures, Buddhist techniques were demonic techniques, and the Buddha was the Demon Ancestor. Everyone had a demon in their heart, but very few people could realize it.

The devil is not about unrestrained and reckless behavior, but about unrestrained behavior without being deluded.

If everyone in the world were truly like a demon, that would be a golden age of humanity, a time of ultimate bliss.

True joy lies not in material desires or how much one possesses, but in profound enlightenment and freedom.

Now that Li Qi's wisdom has been developed, through his spiritual perception, the vast and obscure scriptures in Longxiang Temple are naturally reflected in his mind and transformed into his resources.

As time passed, Li Qi's fundamental martial art, the Dao Embryo Demon Seed, was constantly being fine-tuned and optimized, becoming even more extraordinary and wondrous.

True powerhouses all have their own innovations. Even the Dao Embryo Demon Seed has been continuously refined by successive Demon Emperors. The refined version may not necessarily be stronger than the original, but it is always the most suitable for that generation of Demon Emperor. However, the version optimized by Li Qi is undoubtedly stronger.

After all, none of the Demon Emperors of the past possessed his extraordinary wisdom and were worthy of being ranked alongside him.

"The Dao embryo nurtures the demon, and the demon embryo nurtures the Dao. The Dao is the demon, and the demon is the Dao. The Dao is not the demon, and the demon is not the Dao. It is a constant dialectic, yet a transcendent unity. This martial art becomes more and more dangerous as you progress. If you cannot understand its true meaning and force yourself to practice it, you will definitely go astray and even suffer from personality split."

Li Qi thought to himself that he had now read many of the Demon Emperor's random thoughts, which were his diaries, and knew many of the secrets of the Demonic Sect.

Many of the Demon Emperors throughout history have suffered from symptoms of dissociative identity disorder.

"Luckily, I don't have this problem."

……

When the game ended, in the real world, at midnight, many people were still awake, eager to know the latest news.

A battle between good and evil—it's been many years since such a major event has occurred in the game. However, when some news spread online, many people's first reaction was disbelief.

To many, the plan to first eliminate the Dragon Elephant Temple might have been a protracted battle, with minions wearing each other down to probe the enemy's strength before unleashing the main force to deliver the decisive blow. However, the Demon Emperor unexpectedly charged into the Dragon Elephant Temple alone with only two subordinates, unleashing his full power.

If the Demon Emperor were two hundred years old, people would think that he was a late bloomer who had finally made it big, and that his youthful madness, though fierce, was understandable.

But at the age of twenty, he crushed seven celestial beings in one battle, destroyed mountains and temples, and wiped out an entire sect single-handedly. The two celestial beings he brought with him were merely used as henchmen to clear out the underlings. The whole thing is quite surreal.

"I didn't see any recharge option in this game either. I seriously suspect that the game the Demon Emperor is playing is a different version from ours."

"Why do I feel like the Celestials who were once so powerful are now practically reduced to units of measurement, dying in packs of seven..."

"Am I the only one curious about who the Demon Emperor's real-world identity is?!"

"Even now, we don't know the Demon Emperor's name."

The discussion online is going crazy.

Generally speaking, the character card names generated in the game will be the same as those in reality. However, in the case of Li Qidaotong, his sect was wiped out at the very beginning, and the pursuers who knew his identity were also killed by him in a flash.

In this situation, although there might still be some who know his identity who have slipped through the net, it is impossible for those people to connect the current Demon Emperor with a former Daoist boy.

More importantly, in the Western Regions, now the territory of the Demonic Sect, investigating the origins and identity of the Demon Emperor is suicidal.

Now, within the Demonic Sect, those young disciples all yearn to gain merit and establish their own careers.

If someone were to investigate, this would be credit delivered to their doorstep; they would definitely be traitors to the righteous cause.
