People are in reality, transcending the other side

Chapter 746 Li Qi: I am the Dao Venerable
Meng Wujie had just finished the battle and did not request a rest time. If she had requested one, she could have gotten up to an hour of rest time to recover her strength and energy in this final battle.

Her decision not to rest was not out of arrogance, but because at this moment, after a fierce battle, her energy and spirit had reached a true peak. If she stopped now, her momentum would wane and eventually be exhausted, which would not be a good thing.

As Meng Wujie's voice rang out, the only two names on the big screen began to flash. However, at this moment, only the two of them remained, and no matter how much they flashed, nothing new could be displayed.

A few seconds later, the two flashing names stopped.

Li Qi VS Meng Wujie

At that moment, countless people subconsciously held their breath.

Indeed, Li Qi had already demonstrated supermodel-level martial arts skills, but the true measure of martial arts prowess is ultimately proven through combat. Without a fight, the outcome remains uncertain, and the winner cannot be determined until the very last moment.

Just like the battle where Li Qi crushed Li Taiqing not long ago, who could have known that Li Taiqing would end up like this before the battle even began?

At this moment, the live broadcast camera first focused on Meng Wujie, who was standing in the middle of the field holding a knife, for a few seconds, and then turned to Li Qi, making countless people outside the field look at Li Qi.

Not only those outside the arena, but even those inside, some of the people who could see the players' seats looked over directly, while those who couldn't simply looked at the big screen, where the footage followed the camera in real time.

At this moment, Li Qi was wearing a Taoist robe and looked very calm. He didn't seem like he was about to go to a competition, but rather like he had just finished eating and was lazily watching TV.

"Ah Guang, do you still remember what your godfather told you before?!"

On camera, Li Qi turned to Sun Guang beside him and spoke to him.

"What did you say?!"

When Sun Guang saw that the screen was showing his side, he felt a little nervous and responded subconsciously.

The venue is very advanced; many specific seats are equipped with specialized sound sampling equipment, and artificial intelligence removes background noise, so Li Qi's voice is very clear.

At the same time, just as they were about to go on stage, Li Qi suddenly said these strange things to his friends, which aroused a lot of curiosity among many people, who wanted to know what Li Qi had said before.

"Of course it is. Look at me and Dao Zun. We have never appeared at the same time. Whenever I appear, Dao Zun will not appear. So there is only one truth: Dao Zun is just my disguise."

"Your godfather never lies to you."

Li Qi said seriously.

As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Guang was stunned, and everyone who was watching was stunned. They never expected that Li Qi would still have the mind to joke with his friends in this kind of situation.

"Aqi, do you believe you are the Daoist Master, or do you believe I am the Warrior of Light?!"

At this moment, Sun Guang's mind was in a daze, so he blurted out the words that had been buried in his heart.

Upon hearing this, countless viewers of the live stream burst out laughing. The conversation was indeed very entertaining and relatable.

But Li Qi didn't laugh; he remained serious and said, "I really do have the Daoist mask, so after I'm done fighting, remember to let me see your magic light stick!"

As soon as he finished speaking, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Li Qi pulled out the Daoist's mask directly from his sleeve.

Without even putting on a mask, his eyes and hair instantly turned into a deep platinum color, and real platinum Dao marks appeared between his brows, giving the impression that he had transformed from a human into an ancient god from mythology.

And it's not just any ordinary ancient god, but the god-king among the ancient gods!
The platinum-gold radiance exploded at this moment. Many people felt as if a platinum-gold sun had appeared out of thin air in the arena. The platinum-gold flames surged into the sky in that instant, breaking through the atmosphere and directly bombarding the depths of the starry sky.

Everyone was horrified!

At this point, the brainstorming session had ceased; the intense emotions had left countless people's minds completely blank.

At this moment, Li Qi put on his mask, gently patted Sun Guang's shoulder (who had turned into a statue), then turned and floated into the air. Without making any further movements, he walked step by step, like a god, through the void, unhurriedly into the arena. Even ordinary people could see Li Qi's steps clearly. The most terrifying thing about this "Void Stepping" technique wasn't its rapid leaps—while it was indeed impressive when fast—but only when it slowed down did its true extraordinary nature become apparent.

After nine steps, Li Qi stopped moving and simply stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Meng Wujie, who was once considered incredibly powerful but was now just average.

"I'm going to fight the Dao Venerable?!"

Meng Wujie's mental fortitude was unquestionable, but even she was momentarily stunned at this moment.

What's the difference between this and your opponent suddenly turning into someone who stepped out of a painting on the wall?!

This matching mechanism is undoubtedly revolutionary.

She never dreamed that her final match would be against Dao Zun, not Li Qi.

Silence, deathly silence. The whole world seemed to be dead, the atmosphere terrifyingly oppressive.

Only the constantly slowing numbers on the big screen proved that the world was still alive and time was still flowing.

At this moment, everyone stared intently at the figure in the Taoist robe and mask in the arena, feeling as if that person was no longer of this world, but had emerged from the source of the long river of time, ancient, majestic, powerful, infinite, immeasurable, and invincible!
Clearly, this Daoist master is not a fake.

For a good ten seconds or so, the competition venue remained deathly silent, but the various live broadcast rooms reacted first because of the distance, and the barrage of comments refreshed wildly, with countless people venting their turbulent emotions.

"Dao Venerable, Li Qi is actually a Dao Venerable..."

"Seventeen years old, a Dao Venerable, how could such a thing be possible..."

"Exaggerated, so exaggerated! I've never seen anything like this before, let alone made up a story or a joke!"

"Does anyone remember that when Li Mowang was fifteen, he was still standing like a lackey?!"

"Haha, it's all fake, it's all fake, don't try to fool me!"

"Do you believe Li Qi is a Daoist master, or do you believe we're all dreaming?!"

"In my dream!"

"It's definitely all a dream!"

"..."

……

The internet exploded, with countless posts revealing the shock and trepidation in everyone's hearts.

In reality, at the venue, the intense emotions were like a storm, seemingly capable of melting the world.

In the audience, Li Changqing was completely frozen, body and soul. Not long ago, Li Qi had killed the Three Saints with a single blow, which had made him feel like he was in a dream. It took him a long time to finally come to his senses, accept the fact, and begin to think about how to protect Li Qi.

Something unusual is bound to happen. Being one step ahead is genius, but being too far ahead is a big problem.

But before he could come up with a good solution, the crisis resolved itself.

The ability to kill a saint in one move—such martial prowess allows one to roam the world with impunity!
But how could Li Qi possibly be a Dao Venerable?!

This truth has completely exceeded his comprehension.
