Chapter 380 White Clouds Drift Across a Thousand Years (Ninth Update! 9500 Monthly Tickets Added! Requesting Monthly Tickets!)

In the traditional Chinese garden, Li Qi sat cross-legged under an old tree in the courtyard, feeling the wind and water flowing through the garden. His mind was filled with a sense of timeless tranquility, like white clouds drifting aimlessly for a thousand years.

This is Bai Yunwei's courtyard. The feng shui here was undoubtedly created by a master of the Baiyun Dao lineage, and it is even highly likely that it was established by a true person within the lineage.

When one reaches the level of a true master, the art of Feng Shui no longer holds many secrets. It is simply that because individuals have different paths and skills, the Feng Shui arrangements they ultimately establish are completely different.

This courtyard, though not as grand as a true master's temple, is still a rudimentary form of one, and living here for a long time would be quite beneficial to one's health.

Li Qi has been here for two days. The reason is that he wants to meet the other celestial stars. According to Bai Yunwei, their little circle will have a small gathering here today.

Now, Li Qi's sense of fortune and misfortune has become increasingly acute. Knowing that everything would go smoothly afterward, he did not refuse Bai Yunwei's invitation.

At this moment, a little further away, a girl of about sixteen or seventeen years old, dressed in a lady's dress, was practicing swordsmanship. This girl was Bai Yunwei's junior sister, named Xu Luanyao. Although she was not born under the Heavenly Star, she was still quite good. At the age of seventeen, she had already broken through two major limits.

While this speed may not be as impressive as a genius breaking through three levels in sixteen attempts, it is still quite remarkable.

In a sense, it was only natural that the Cicada Heart Sect chose that celestial star as their destiny instead of him.

When a celestial star enters one's destiny, normally one can break through the three major limits before the age of eighteen. However, in the eyes of others, Li Qi at that time was only in his twenties. His swordsmanship might not have reached a divine level, let alone broken through the limits.

Xin Tianzheng's initial decision to take him on as a disciple stemmed from his genuine admiration for his character, even overlooking his talent and potential...

However, Li Qi's stats were too overpowered. Although only a few months had passed, things like "Heavenly Star Entering Destiny" were nothing but dust in front of him.

Before long, even the Three Saints will be nothing but fleeting clouds.

However, such things are beyond the prediction of people at that particular point in time.

Even Li Qi himself did not expect that his cultivation could progress so quickly. Once the snowball started rolling, it advanced by leaps and bounds, becoming more and more terrifying, and there was no limit or end to it.

At this time, Xu Luanyao was practicing the Cloud Soaring Sword, one of the Three Swords and Five Blades from the White Cloud Dao lineage. This sword technique is also of the White Extreme quality, which is quite extraordinary. If one obtains its essence, it will have the magnificent momentum of soaring to the ninth heaven.

However, what Xu Luanyao was practicing at this time was not the fundamental technique, but a special fighting method.

In fact, the first thirteen of the Tiger Fiend Eighteen Blades that Li Qi practiced could be transformed into an extremely fierce fighting style with just a slight change in the key points. However, Li Qi was focused on gaining experience and did not specifically hone his skills in this area.

Later, once his swordsmanship was perfected, he honed his skills in dungeons through life-or-death battles, without specifically training his fighting style on ordinary days.

However, the Baiyun Dao lineage would never allow its young disciples to rashly undergo life-or-death training. They could only hone their fighting techniques repeatedly to consolidate and improve their combat abilities. Furthermore, each major sect also had its own methods for internal competitions and exchanges, but these were not known to ordinary people.

However, at this moment, although Xu Luanyao was doing her daily homework, most of her attention was actually focused on Li Qi, who was sitting quietly under the tree.

Because her senior sister was a Heavenly Star in her destiny, she paid attention to all the experts in the Southern Continent, especially Li Qi, who was not a Heavenly Star Blade that could suppress a Heavenly Star. She was particularly curious about him.

However, from a distance, she only saw Li Qi as ordinary and couldn't discern anything special about him. But she was well aware of Li Qi's martial arts skills; in fact, she had watched the video recording of Li Qi instantly killing the super soldier of the Demon God Research Institute in one move many times just a few days ago.

While the video recording couldn't reveal the true spirit of the man, the image of him pinning a two-meter-tall, burly man to his knees with one hand, his body spurting blood, was still incredibly impactful. It made her realize that Li Qi, seemingly gentle and mild-mannered, was actually a terrifying tyrannical dragon inside.

The contrast between this person's outward appearance and inner self is truly astounding.

However, she also knew that this was a manifestation of great spiritual tension. She had heard Bai Yunwei say that Li Qi's mind and spirit were probably already close to the One.

"This is a monster!"

At this moment, such a thought came to Xu Luanyao's mind.

Li Qi didn't care about Xu Luanyao's gaze. In fact, since he moved into this courtyard these past two days, he has been the subject of much scrutiny, but his heart is no longer easily stirred by changes in appearance.

It can be said that he was truly unmoved by favor or disgrace, and indifferent to staying or leaving.

In fact, it could be said that his mind and spirit are moving closer to a state of oneness every day.

After all, he adds two traits to his body every day on average. These accumulations are not fake. In addition, his surging potential is refined day and night, and he is constantly polished by the Pure Yang Daoist. Every day, he becomes stronger and purer.

However, this state of one dimension contains mysteries, seemingly involving some kind of unseen boundary and constraint. Although Li Qi is constantly becoming stronger, it is like taking half a piece of wood every day. He seems to be getting closer and closer, but in reality, he is always just a little bit short.

Li Qi wasn't in a hurry about this. This state was difficult to achieve, but once it was achieved, the power would be extraordinary. If it could be achieved easily, it wouldn't live up to the prestige of Yi Yuan.

After all, the spirit and will of the Nine Yuan is the foundation for becoming a saint. Although the Nine Yuan cannot be just nine times stronger than the One Yuan, this thing is still incredibly powerful.

Meanwhile, further away, in a pavilion, Li Tianxing was quietly debating some details of their collaboration with Bai Yunwei.

His arrival this time was naturally to finalize the entire cooperation. Bai Yunwei also showed sincerity by personally negotiating the matter instead of having her subordinates do so. In a sense, this was also to make up for the previous probing.

This woman is shrewd and extraordinary. If Li Qiruo were determined to start a business, he would never have let such a talent slip by. It's just a pity that he didn't choose this path.

However, Li Qi also had a thought: if he were to take the template of an urban business protagonist, he would probably first recruit Ling Fuyao in Tiannan, then subdue Zhuang Buzhou in Mingyu, then open up the map of Ziyang, recruit Bai Yunwei, and gradually build his own business empire...

Actually, thinking about it, this path is somewhat exciting. Of course, compared to becoming an invincible demon god, it's still a struggle in the mud, not as exhilarating as being invincible in the world.

At that moment, Li Qi's heart stirred slightly, realizing that someone had arrived, and not just one person.

Several dozen seconds later, Bai Yunwei also sensed something and looked in the direction of the courtyard gate.
