People are in reality, transcending the other side

Chapter 827 Time Reversal (Sixth Update! 23600 Monthly Tickets Added! Requesting Monthly Tickets!)

He walked up the stone steps. This Zen Heart Gate was private property, and there was special security at the foot of the mountain to prevent anyone from trespassing.

In the internet age, some people will do anything to become famous. When the Nine Seas Holy King came from the East Sea, some audacious streamers tried to get close to him for the sake of popularity.

However, the authorities were prepared and intercepted all of them.

Of course, Li Qi is now a true user of the "Face Fruit" ability. In the entire universe, no one dares to disrespect him, so he can go wherever he wants.

In fact, when he appeared at the foot of the mountain, the security personnel had already notified the people of Chanxin Sect, and the entire Chanxin Inner Sect was in an uproar.

After all, what kind of person is Dao Zun? He can transform into the sun to patrol the heavens and blast a divine mech with a single punch. He is a true god among men and a demon god incarnate.

The appearance of such a being is naturally awe-inspiring.

Li Qi walked up the steps unhurriedly. What had once seemed extraordinary to him now appeared ordinary.

His very existence is in harmony with the Dao and in control of the Dao. Wherever he stands, all things in heaven and earth follow his lead, which has already surpassed the Dao field by countless degrees.

After walking a few steps, Li Qi could already see the bronze bell on the mountaintop shining brightly. Normally, the surface of bronze would easily become dull due to oxidation, but this bronze bell was located on the mountaintop, where lightning often struck, and the lightning and fire polished it, so it looked as good as new.

After a few more steps, Li Qi arrived at the mountain gate. He was very fast, and the people of the Chanxin Sect were not slow to react either. At this time, a group of disciples also appeared in front of the Dao Palace gate, welcoming him with the entire sect.

This was undoubtedly a matter of great courtesy.

"The arrival of the Daoist Master is an honor to our humble abode, but due to the short time, we were unable to greet you from afar."

The headmaster of the Cicada Heart Sect, Fan Xin, bowed from afar, not only to Li Qi's great power, but more importantly to the Dao itself.

There is a sequence to learning the Way, and Li Qi's Way certainly deserves this bow.

However, when he spoke, he couldn't help but feel a bit complicated.

The cycle of fate and the changes of destiny—who could have imagined that today would come, that this moment would arrive?
Indeed, Xing Tianzheng was a wise and open-minded person who knew that the fault did not lie with him, or rather, that there was no fault at all. After all, no one can stand in God's perspective and know the future directly. At that time, their choice was undoubtedly the optimal solution decided by both of them.

The principle is true, but when faced with this moment, how can one not feel regret?

"Fellow Taoist, you're welcome!"

"My arrival was also sudden. I just happened to be passing by, so I came to see an old friend and also to clear up the doubts in my heart."

Li Qi responded by addressing Shi Fanxin as "fellow Daoist," which undoubtedly showed him great respect.

After all, at this point in time, even a sage wouldn't dare to address him as a fellow Daoist.

The Cicada Heart Sect is special because of the connection between Xin Tianzheng and the sect.

In this world, there are some people who are ungrateful and only see the faults in everything they do, without seeing the kindness in it. But Li Qi is certainly not such a person.

At that time, he was just a commoner, yet Xin Tianzheng directly taught him the martial arts of a sage. How great was the bond between them!
If one only focuses on the fact that the Cicada Heart Sect didn't accept him and harbors resentment and hatred, completely ignoring the immense bond they shared, then he's no different from an animal.

As Li Qi spoke, Shi Fanxin felt increasingly complicated. He knew why Li Qi would address him as "fellow Daoist." He was merely a Great True Person; how could he have achieved such merit and honor? It was simply due to the good karma he had cultivated with Xin Tianzheng.

Therefore, he couldn't help but feel even more regretful. In this world, there are too many people who forget their roots and become extremely arrogant once they gain power. People like Li Qi, who are invincible yet still know their place and are loyal and righteous, are undoubtedly a very small minority.

He knew that if he had made a different choice back then, the Cicada Heart Sect would be completely different today.

Unfortunately, the past can never be retrieved.

At this moment, in the crowd, Shi Huang'er looked at Li Qi with great liveliness, and even made a face. The white-robed senior brother and purple-robed senior sister, who had met Li Qi several times before, had a dreamlike look in their eyes.

Xin Tianzheng's eyes also flickered, a mixture of realization and regret.

Li Qi was welcomed into the Dao Palace by a group of people. He had also accepted the invitation from the Chanxin Sect to attend the banquet. Returning to this familiar place and looking back at the key moments of his life, the feelings and experiences were indeed completely different.

After they had eaten, Li Qicai, led by Xin Tianzheng, arrived at the place where the founder of the Chanxin Sect had passed away in the back mountain.

It was a dry and open stone cave, with a stone wall inside, where a photograph has remained for thousands of years.

This shadow was left on the stone wall after the Ancestor Chanxin passed away and his body burned out.

"The ages are too ancient. The patriarch failed to become a demon god and preached here for three days. After that, he transformed into a rainbow and burned away. The Nine Transformations of the Cicada Heart were passed down from the patriarch's three days of preaching."

Xin Tianzheng said.

He was wise and insightful, and understood Li Qi's confusion, which was probably due to the Nine Transformations of the Cicada's Heart.

He even suspected that Li Qi's current achievements might be related to this martial art.

However, many people in the Chanxin Sect know this martial art. In their hands, the only use of the Nine Transformations of the Cicada Heart is to provide some assistance, without any effect of turning the rotten into the miraculous.

Otherwise, the Cicada Heart Sect wouldn't be without a single Saint, let alone a Half-Saint.

Although Li Qi's entry into the Dao Transformation was just a matter of a single thought, in reality, the Dao Fire was not so easy to ignite.

That is to ignite a spark from one's true nature; only by thoroughly understanding the mysteries of life and the profound wonders of the Great Dao, and reaching the ultimate state of Nirvana, can one achieve this transformation.

Just like Shen Yue Daozhen, the first semi-saint gatekeeper killed by Li Qi, this person used demonic methods to forcibly ignite his Dao fire with the help of external forces. After the Dao fire was ignited, it lacked the strength to continue and could not burn the Dao diagram at all, so he could no longer make any progress.
"When the conditions come together, many things seem to be predetermined, which makes me wonder, who can determine my fate?"

Li Qi said in a calm tone, but the content of his words was undoubtedly extremely arrogant, which can be translated as "My fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of heaven."

If anyone else had said such a thing, it would have been a joke, but Xin Tianzheng knew that Li Qi was simply stating a fact.

Immediately afterward, Li Qi moved, and the entire world seemed to shake wildly. The platinum-colored radiance flowed and shone, directly penetrating into the depths of time and space, reaching the essence and origin of all things.

Then, to Xin Tianzheng's incredulous gaze, Li Qi made a hand seal, and then, time in the entire cave began to flow backward.

Xin Tianzheng clearly saw his master, who had long since passed away, in seclusion in the cave, as well as the patriarchs of past generations who were also in seclusion there. Fleeting glimpses of them, time seemed to be reversing wildly.

It wasn't until the moment the Cicada Heart Ancestor ascended to immortality that the reversal of time finally slowed down.
