116: Everyone... let's meet again in the sky

The Linglong Merchant Guild, with its powerful intelligence channels, had always been monitoring Lord Fuyang's every move. When news of Lord Fuyang's death came, Su Hongye and Qin Zhinan knew that that person had actually done it!

Not long after, five more Land Immortals fell, and they all died at the hands of the same person.

Everyone felt that this world had gone mad; things they once dared not even imagine had actually happened...

And that name spread throughout the five lakes and four seas, spreading across the entire world.

"You don't need to admire me now... You will naturally admire me in the future..."

The words Li Qi once spoke seemed to still echo in their ears, lingering and not dispersing, and these words had truly come true.

Li Qi was a legend walking among Mortals; his name had become a symbolic existence, representing talent and Realm that Mortals could hardly imagine or reach.

Su Hongye and Qin Zhinan sat opposite each other, organizing some recently collected information in the room. At this moment, a familiar voice once again sounded in the room.

"Gentlemen, how have you been recently?"

Li Qi's figure walked out of the Void Realm, asking with a smile.

Upon seeing Li Qi's figure, both of them were startled, quickly getting up and stepping forward to salute Li Qi: "Greetings, Lord Li!"

Li Qi was already standing at the peak of this world, his strength and Realm terrifyingly powerful. Their attitude towards Li Qi became increasingly respectful, not daring to overstep in the slightest.

After exchanging greetings, Li Qi also got to the point: "I presume both of you already know the purpose of my visit."

"I have obtained that strange bone. Are you sure you truly need to comprehend the method within it?"

Li Qi looked at Qin Zhinan beside him, asking faintly.

It wasn't that he didn't want to fulfill his previous promise; it was just that the existence of the phoenix remnant bone had been known by many people, and too many coveted this phoenix remnant bone. It had become a hot potato.

Previously, five Land Immortals had come to their door, attempting to seize the remnant bone, but Li Qi single-handedly fended them off and counter-killed them.

If, one day in the future, news were to leak that Qin Zhinan had once come into contact with this remnant bone and was suspected of having gained benefits from it... perhaps Land Immortals would also come knocking.

At that time... it would be unknown if Qin Zhinan could withstand them.

Qin Zhinan knew what Li Qi meant, and he was also very clear about the hidden dangers involved, but after some deliberation, Qin Zhinan still gritted his teeth and nodded: "I'm sure..."

And Li Qi also nodded, saying no more.

He had given the necessary warning, then raised a hand, and the phoenix remnant bone fell from Qingming Heaven, landing in Li Qi's hand.

Receiving the golden bone fragment from Li Qi, Qin Zhinan was incredibly excited. He immediately sat down properly, carefully examining the intricate runes appearing on the bone fragment, and began to comprehend the power hidden within it.

Su Hongye, being very perceptive, left the area and closed the door.

In the following days, Qin Zhinan continuously comprehended this golden bone fragment day and night, attempting to gain some insight from it.

Li Qi also did not leave, quietly sitting by the side, waiting for the other party to finish their comprehension.

At the same time, Li Qi also looked at his System page; he currently had 90,000 Potential Points in hand.

Not too many, but not too few either.

If he continued to use them to enhance the Nine Revolutions Nirvana Sutra, it would not be enough for him to complete his second Nirvana and obtain the second Bloodline Divine Ability, so he could only give up on that.

And his Fire-Derived Method was at the proficient mastery level, which was already sufficient for use, so there was no need to upgrade it for now.

Since that was the case, these tens of thousands of Potential Points might as well be saved to serve as starting capital when he went to the Upper Realm.

Moreover, he would stay in this Realm for a while longer, and he could try to collect more Potential Points. Potential Points, no matter what, one could never have too many.

Days passed one by one. Li Qi continuously comprehended his experiences and gains from his journey. Although it wasn't as fast as directly using Potential Points for enhancement, his strength was still slowly improving.

Five days later.

Qin Zhinan, who had been comprehending the golden bone fragment, finally stopped.

The agreed time had arrived. Despite his extreme reluctance, he returned the bone fragment to Li Qi.

"Lord Li, time's up..."

Li Qi took the phoenix remnant bone and put it into Qingming Heaven.

Five days was too short, too rushed. Li Qi saw a faint look of joy on Qin Zhinan's face and guessed that the other party must have gained something.

"This matter is concluded. May you all take care of yourselves..."

As his words fell, Li Qi's figure also disappeared from the room.

Li Qi left Xingfeng Fu City and headed into the distance.

Golden Scale Island.

Legend has it that there was once a female Land Immortal named Shi Ying, and her last known whereabouts were Golden Scale Island, after which she was never seen again. Li Qi had bought intelligence regarding Shi Ying, and this trip to Golden Scale Island was to search for any traces she might have left behind.

Golden Scale Island was far overseas, a distant journey. Li Qi did not rush, he traveled leisurely, enjoying the scenery along the way.

He would soon leave here, and perhaps never return. If he didn't take the chance to see more now, he would never see it again...

Along his journey, Li Qi saw much beauty, but also a good deal of evil, and all these evildoers were slain by Li Qi!

Bandits, pirates, Horse Bandits, marauders... as long as they were discovered, they were killed without mercy!

And Li Qi's Potential Points increased again, quickly exceeding 120,000.

After staying near Golden Scale Island for half a month, Li Qi did not find any relics left by Shi Ying, so he could only give up and then return to the Pine Crane Longevity Sect.

Upon returning to the School, the Sect Head and all the Elders were called. Everyone looked at Li Qi before them, seemingly sensing something.

Ji Zhizhang stepped forward, speaking hoarsely: "Li Qi... are you leaving?"

Li Qi smiled, nodding calmly.

Everyone fell silent.

The Pine Crane Longevity Sect's achievements today were due in no small part to Li Qi, but now Li Qi was about to depart...

Leaving this world...

Although everyone knew this day would come, when it truly arrived, their hearts were filled with mixed emotions.

Even with countless words on their lips, they didn't know how to speak them.

Li Qi's gaze swept across the faces of the people before him, his heart also touched...

Ji Zhizhang...

Xu Nianyun...

Pang Jing...

Wang Huan...

...

If he hadn't met these people... he wouldn't be who he was today.

The Pine Crane Longevity Sect was flourishing, Ji Zhizhang had achieved Land Immortal, and it wouldn't be long before Pang Jing could also achieve Land Immortal. Many matters had been concluded...

There was no longer anything Li Qi needed to worry about or be concerned about here...

He could finally leave...

After a long pause, Li Qi said calmly.

"Everyone... we shall meet again in the firmament..."

Li Qi no longer concealed his power. The world of this Realm noticed his existence, and that invisible force of repulsion instantly increased to its maximum!

And Li Qi's figure completely disappeared between this heaven and earth...
