People are in reality, transcending the other side

Chapter 790: Fate or Calamity?
In the south, before Li Qi and his group had even returned, countless people were already waiting at the airport.

The Li family, the Gu Chengyan family, and some people from the Tiannanmu and Zhang families.

Li Qi's achievements are terrifying; no amount of attention is too much.

For the Li and Yan families, it's not just a matter of one person achieving enlightenment and all their relatives and friends benefiting; they're practically flying off into outer space.

In a short period of time, various forces and influences converged, causing the businesses of both companies to expand wildly, even with deliberate attempts to control them.

When Li Qi and his group got off the plane, they saw Li Changqing, who had rejuvenated, in person. Even though they had seen him in videos before and were mentally prepared, their feelings were still incredibly complicated.

The old men of the Mu and Zhang families, in particular, were suddenly struck by a sense of realization.

Recreating the cycle of sixty years, Li Changqing's lifespan regressed directly from one hundred years old to forty years old.

In fact, Li Qi's methods were extraordinary, and the effect of the reconstruction was exceptionally good. Li Changqing's actual physical condition was around thirty-six years old.

This state implies enormous possibilities.

After all, although Li Changqing's martial arts skills could not improve during the last fifty years of his life, he never stopped exploring martial arts.

Now, with Li Qi's cheat code, completing the Four Great Refinements is not difficult. He had already gained some understanding of the True Way, and now that he has returned to youth, he has personally experienced life and death, prosperity and decline, and the reversal of life and death. Obtaining the True Way, and even the transformation of the Dao, are all natural outcomes.

In this world, what cultivators lack most often is not anything else, but the years. This is why Li Changqing brought Li Qi to the Chanxin Sect earlier, so that Li Qi could have more years.

Often, a year's difference can make all the difference.

Now, Li Qi has taken away sixty-six years of his life from Li Changqing, which shows how great the fortune was.

Under normal circumstances, if a sage were to use such a method, it would shorten his lifespan by at least six years.

As for Li Qi, his lifespan was depleted faster than he could recover.

However, he wouldn't casually change someone's fate against all odds; it's simply because the connection wasn't strong enough.

Using such a heaven-defying method to change one's fate once or twice is a form of exploration, but doing it too often is a waste of cultivation time. Although one can multitask, there will still be some impact.

He was selfless and only did what was convenient for him, rarely having anyone he could devote special attention to.

Li Changqing generously sent him to the Cicada Heart Sect, which was an act of kindness from the entire Dao. Li Si was his younger brother, and Sun Guang was someone he had grown up with and had a deep bond with. His parents were also his closest relatives. Apart from these, everyone else, even people like Li Zheng and Li Yin, was a step away, let alone people like Li Tianxing.

Li Qi saw the various aspects of human nature very clearly.

A large group of people left the airport and went straight back to Lijia Village. The village had already prepared a feast, just waiting for them to return so they could start eating.

There were many people and the scene was noisy, but it did not appear chaotic at all.

During the meal, almost everyone's gaze kept drifting towards Li Qi's table.

Producing a martial arts champion in a family is already unbelievable to many, but to produce a saint in the same family is an indescribable feeling.

Indeed, sages exist in every era, but for 99.9% of the world's population, there is simply no possibility of encountering a sage in reality. The young members of the Li, Yan, Mu, and Zhang families, looking in this direction, were all in a daze, feeling a sense of disorientation despite not having been drunk.

These people are considered family members, and those who are able to come here now are considered outstanding in their families. But sometimes, it's just a matter of making connections.

They were both seventeen, but at seventeen they were still studying for exams in class, while others at seventeen had already ascended to heaven, first beating up the Xuan Emperor, and then blasting a generation of holy kings into dust.

This is no longer just a difference in script and art style.

"Having seen the ocean, one finds it hard to be satisfied with mere streams..."

"I wonder if this is fate or misfortune..."

At this moment, Mu Qingqing was relatively close to Li Qi, so she could see Li Qi's profile.

Without activating the superdimensional liberation, Li Qi's current demeanor is very peaceful, showing none of the terror he displayed when he raised his hand to kill a saint.

This huge difference makes it easy to feel like you're in a dream.

Mu Qingqing even felt that there were huge gaps in her memories. The earliest Li Qi, the arrogant Li Qi in his childhood, the Li Qi under the moon during the three families' tiger hunt last year, and the Li Qi now are all three different people.

Suddenly, the person in his memory became truly invincible. No saint, not even the famous founders of the three religions, could defeat him.

The other party was a roc in the sky, while she was just a sparrow on the ground. From beginning to end, their interaction seemed to be nothing more than her own fantasy.

At this moment, Xu Wei also looked at Li Qi, and the feelings in her heart were something she couldn't understand herself.

In a daze, her memories crossed time and space, returning to the past. Back then, Li Qi punched his cousin, kicked his older cousin, and beat up his uncle, defeating all his opponents just to gain the right to marry her. Then she suppressed him with force, and he died prematurely.

The main reason is that Li Qi was just a little kid back then. Although she was also young, how could she possibly be thinking about marriage?

In the blink of an eye, times have changed, and the people from the past have suddenly gone far away.

"At this moment, should I think that since the Holy King was killed instantly by Li Qi with one palm strike, while I only suffered minor injuries after taking his full-force attack, I am stronger than the Holy King?!"

Zhang Kuanglong was eating frantically at this moment. He didn't look at Li Qi, but was just muttering to himself.

In fact, ever since the Great Trial of Mountains and Rivers, he has always had the feeling that his world is actually a game and he is a low-level NPC.

What is a low-level NPC? It's someone with low energy consumption who stays in the same place all the time, never wanders around the world, follows the rules every day, repeats the same things over and over, and is then shocked by the great things the protagonist does, shouting "666" like crazy.
Zhang Kuanglong felt like he had hit the bullseye every time.

So he decided to eat more, starting by increasing his energy consumption, and gradually escape the fate of a low-level NPC.

"Something feels increasingly off. It feels like the turning point for Li Qi's cheating was me. Before he instantly killed me, his record was perfectly normal. After I fell, he became stronger and stronger, and the stronger he became, the more he fought, stepping on his own feet and soaring to the sky."

"Could it be that I'm actually his limiter, and if he hadn't beaten me back then, he'd still be a lackey in Tiannan...?"

While eating, Li Youan also had some strange thoughts popping into his head.
