People are in reality, transcending the other side

Chapter 512 Monster
Inside the instance, Li Qi stayed in a corner, his life magnetic field receding, maintaining a secluded relationship with the Mother of Wisdom in the distance.

Behind him, at the cross-section of the Ruins of Light, the light and shadow shifted on the other side.

Li Qi had just taken a look and sensed something. The light of the ruins here didn't seem so terrifying to him anymore. However, with his current level of willpower, he still didn't have enough to cross over.

Li Qi guessed that once he broke through the six major limits and his basic willpower attribute improved again, it should be about time.

The Ruins of Light in the Heroes' Dungeon is a special case.

This also demonstrates the high value of the Mother of Wisdom.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Li Qi, for the first time, took the initiative to explore the last dark area in his mind.

This so-called darkness is not a real dark area in the brain, but a reflection of objects in the mind.

Activating the brain is not about activating individual areas. To be precise, activating the brain means activating the whole, which is an increase in overall activity. The more life shackles are broken, the deeper the potential of the brain can be explored, rather than targeted activation of a certain part of the brain.

This point is explained in many of the research materials on the Future God Group that Li Qi saw.

They used technological means to partially activate the brain regions of the experimental subjects, activating the depth of their brains.

Logically, a materialistic mind shouldn't be subject to any mysterious pollution, but reality is quite the opposite.

Not only did Li Qi learn from God's example, but his own keen mind, combined with his insight into reality, also deeply felt the immense terror contained within that darkness.

It was the deepest darkness, the deepest despair. In that darkness, it seemed as if countless evil eyes were watching you, ready to devour you completely.

This wasn't even the sixth shackle of life; it was merely the darkness within his mind that gave Li Qi this feeling.

In fact, this is the manifestation of the boundary between body and spirit. When the fifth shackle is broken, a special change occurs. The boundary between spirit and matter directly merges with the final darkness, and the sixth shackle of life is hidden behind the darkness.

At this time, Li Qi did not have enough potential particles to break the shackles, but he could explore the darkness in advance. After all, to break the shackles, one must first find them.

In reality, Li Qi naturally prioritizes stability, but in dungeons, he doesn't mind taking a risk.

With a single thought, Li Qi united his mind and will, and began to explore the ancient darkness that was extremely deep within the spiritual world.

Instantly, a strong pollution surged from the darkness, attempting to permeate Li Qi's spirit.

However, in Li Qi's spiritual world, there is flame and light, and the suppression of the demon god's origin, yet he is impervious to all evil!

Despite the rampant pollution, Li Qi remained as steady as a mountain.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Qi, having traversed a vast distance, suddenly found himself in a strange, dark space-time.

The darkness here was endless, but beneath his feet appeared something like a mirror, reflecting another version of himself.

When he looked into the mirror, his reflection in the mirror also looked into him.

Everything seemed normal, but at that moment, Li Qi in the mirror suddenly revealed an evil smile, while Li Qi himself did not laugh.

"I am you!" "I am the one who truly is you!"

"I am real, and you are merely an illusion. In the past, the real me never awoke. Now that the real me has awakened, it is your turn to be forever plunged into darkness!"

An evil melody arose, filled with decay, distortion, and madness.

At the same time, Li Qi's mouth also split open in the mirror, his smile becoming increasingly ferocious.

Li Qi, however, stared at the other party with a blank expression.

Li Qi finally moved when the other person reached out their hand to pull him into the mirror.

His body was surrounded by flames, colorful lights, and bursts of platinum-gold light.

He broke free from the oppressive force he was under, then pulled his reflection out of the mirror, grabbed it by the neck, and brutally beat it in front of the other person's incredulous gaze.

"I don't know what you really are, but with this, you think you can be my true self?!"

Li Qi's cold voice rang out. He was clearly an aggregate of mental power at this moment, but in this place, he had a real physical form, and his whole being seemed no different from that in reality.

His intuition and insightful perception told him that this darkness was not simply his brain, but connected to something strange.

However, it should be noted that he is currently in a dungeon, in the Great Ruins, yet such strange changes still occur. Clearly, this pollution is not only targeting one real world, but encompasses the entire multiverse.

When the monster he was holding was beaten to death by Li Qi, this strange space-time suddenly collapsed. The mirror beneath his feet shattered at that moment, and he continued to fall until he finally plunged into the Black Sea!
The black ocean swallowed Li Qi. Everything here was like black mud, heavily polluted and permeating everything.

When Li Qi sank to the bottom of the Black Sea, he directly crossed the boundary, and the ground beneath his feet turned into blood-red earth, while the Black Sea floated about a hundred meters above his head.

Immediately afterwards, a large amount of black mud surged down from the sea in the sky, coalescing into black monsters that charged towards Li Qi.

In response, Li Qi swung his sword. With each flash of the blade, monsters were annihilated, turning back into black mud that flowed across the blood-red ground. But the darkness was endless, the monsters were endless, and the blood-red earth had no end.

It might be a day, or a hundred days, or a hundred years, or a thousand years...

As time passed, black lines gradually spread across Li Qi's body. These black lines brought him endless pain, tormenting him constantly. At first, the pain was no more than that of surpassing himself when practicing swordsmanship, but gradually it became ten times, a hundred times, with no end in sight.

At the same time, in the instance, black patterns also appeared on Li Qi's body in real time.

In the strange space-time, the blood-red earth had turned into a black sea, and Li Qi had also turned completely black. Finally, for a moment, he was completely burned to ashes, and in the instance, his real body also lost its breath at this moment. Then, a certain will seemed to be about to be conceived and awaken, but Li Qi's body directly and naturally turned into dust, not giving that evil will a chance to be born.

In reality, Li Qi opened his eyes and fell into deep thought.

He remembered his experience in that strange place, but as he continued to slay monsters, the sense of time and pain from that experience became blurred, like a dream.

This situation proves that these things would cause him some kind of harm in reality, so they were exempted by the panel's mechanism.
