Chapter 209 The First Transformation of the Cicada's Heart (Eighth Update! 6080 Monthly Tickets Added! Requesting Monthly Tickets!)

When Li Qi opened his eyes, the world he saw was still the same world, but the world in his heart was completely different from before. His heart was calm and joyful like never before, and his entire spiritual world was filled with a strong power of light.

This light is not an emotion like justice, but a kind of illumination, a positive force that originates from and supports the heart.

"My heart is bright..."

Li Qi murmured to himself. At this moment, he was not practicing his sword, but he felt the darkness in his brain was naturally dissipating. Although the speed was very slow, it was continuous. Under these circumstances, even if he stopped cultivating afterward, he could naturally reach the peak of the realm, illuminating 40% of his brain, and even naturally accumulating power to break through the limits of the human body.

Of course, that would take several years.

At this moment, Li Qi's mind was turned upside down, and his mental strength became stronger than ever before. But strangely, Li Qi's mental attributes did not increase at all on the panel.

"Indeed, special traits and the basic six dimensions are two separate systems. The six dimensions are fundamental, while special traits are something else entirely—a strange and extraordinary state of information..."

"That's why when I first obtained the Tiger Might trait, my six-dimensional attributes didn't change at all. Later, when I extracted the trait and modified my physical body, it was only because my physical body wasn't strong enough to handle it, so the panel was forcibly modified..."

"The upper limit of the mind is far greater than that of the body, and it may not even have a limit..."

At this moment, Li Qi felt a bright light shining in his heart, his mind was clear, and his wisdom was even more brilliant. He felt that his mental state was almost the same as that of a Grandmaster in a dungeon after all the attributes were stacked on top of him.

Of course, this is an illusion. In terms of computing power, Li Qi is currently no match for the superposition after the miracle, but in terms of the activity of his mind and the brilliance of his wisdom, he even surpasses the one in the dungeon.

"As expected of a special extraction incorporating higher-dimensional elements, this trait is incredibly powerful, surpassing all the traits I've acquired before. After all, the key to cultivation lies in the mind; a strong mind naturally leads to rapid progress in cultivation..."

"The Heroes' Dungeon is truly a vast treasure trove. Even a fragment of high-dimensional information can bring about such a change. If I could decipher the broken mysteries within the Heroes' Dungeon, what realm could my spirit and mind reach?!"

In his pure and clear spiritual world, Li Qi's thoughts also shone brightly.

With this thought in mind, Li Qi released the suppression of the Nine Transformations of the Cicada Heart Reincarnation True Self Dao Scripture. In an instant, the flames transformed from the scripture engulfed Li Qi's spiritual world. The strange fire melted everything into it, causing it to shrink continuously, as if it were reversing the process of the Big Bang, turning everything back into the original one.

"The cycle of reincarnation begins..."

"Who was I before I was born? Who am I after I was born?!"

"Reincarnation, reincarnation..."

"True self, true self..."

……

In a daze, as Li Qi's consciousness faded, he heard a strange Daoist sound.

It sounded like the whispers of millions of people, or like the chants uttered by ancient people when they worshipped the cycle of heaven and earth.

Until Li Qi's consciousness rose from the Black Sea, he was in a state of half-dreaming and half-awake.

He saw his own birth; he was born into the Li family, but only a branch. There was an old man in the family named Li Changqing who had built up the family business and was very capable, but his parents were just parasites.

Years later, his younger brother Li Si was born. However, unlike himself, Li Si was very talented and was recognized by a special organization as having the potential to become a mecha pilot, which is a very powerful profession.

In this world, there is martial arts, mecha, and qi. Martial arts, when practiced to a high level, can even cleave mountains, but what determines the future is the martial god who pilots the demon god mecha!
Mech pilots, on the other hand, use their mechs to accelerate their martial arts training, making them naturally more likely to become strong. Furthermore, because they are well-suited to their mechs, the same mechs are far more powerful in their hands than those of pure martial artists.

Li Qi lived his life in a daze, his grades were neither good nor bad. In high school, he got into the best school in the city through his family's quota. But the world is too big, and Tiannan is just a small place. The best school in a small place is actually just so-so.

Li Qi also practiced martial arts. He even had vivid dreams, dreaming that he was in another world where his martial arts skills improved by leaps and bounds. He even dreamed that he traveled through a destroyed world, or even went back to the past to rewrite the future...

He had many dreams, but dreams are just dreams and cannot make him a martial arts master in reality.

"Qi, I can't believe you're sleeping in class and even talking in your sleep..."

In the classroom, after class, Sun Guang came over.

"Luckily, it was the biology teacher's class. The biology teacher is pretty laid-back and didn't make an example of you." "However, what you said in your sleep was a bit arrogant. What do you mean you couldn't even withstand one of my cuts?!"

"Isn't your family's martial arts supposed to be Tiger Roar, Dragon Cry, and Vajra Body? When did you switch to practicing swordsmanship?!"

Sun Guang rattled off a whole bunch of things.

"You said it yourself, it was a dream, right? In my dream, I was a master swordsman, a really high-level one. With a single grab, I could unleash a sword beam hundreds of meters long. It was incredibly powerful!"

Li Qi muttered.

"What?! A blade of light hundreds of meters long?!"

"Wouldn't that mean his martial arts skills would be almost on par with the Great Master?"

Sun Guang clicked his tongue in amazement.

"But in my dream, it seemed like I had only just entered that realm..."

Li Qi remembered something else.

"???"

"You're dreaming of cheating, aren't you!"

"Good guy."

"Your dream makes absolutely no sense."

Sun Guang joked.

At this moment, Li Qi was holding his phone. He first searched for "Tiger Fiend Eighteen Blades," but found nothing. Then he searched for "Tiger Demon Thirteen Blades," but still found nothing. Finally, he searched for "Qian Yuan Dao Jing," but found nothing as well...

"Qi, what are you doing?!"

Sun Guang was curious.

"This is the martial art I dreamed about. I'd like to see if there's anything like it in reality..."

Li Qi responded.

"I think you're confused by your dreams. If the martial arts skills in your dream were to appear in reality, there's only one possibility: you've seen the name online by chance, but you've forgotten it since."

"However, I saw someone online say that dreaming might be about a parallel universe version of yourself. In that other world, you're a master, but the worlds are different, so there are bound to be differences. Martial arts techniques from a parallel world might not be useful in our world..."

Sun Guang has a very active mind and can speak fluently without hesitation.

"Makes sense!"

"I seem to have also seen something that says everyone's total life value is actually equal, but some parallel universe versions of themselves occupy the majority, leaving only a small portion for others. This causes a series of discrepancies in wealth, talent, appearance, and so on. I'm starting to suspect that I'm the unlucky one whose life value has been mostly occupied by my parallel universe self..."

Upon hearing Sun Guang mention parallel universes, Li Qi turned his thoughts to that as well, no longer dwelling on the dream.

"Probably!"

Sun Guang expressed his approval.

"I feel like I'm just as unlucky as you..."
