148: A powerful person in the Yanfa realm appears!

This was Li Qi's first time encountering a Yan Fa Realm existence, and it brought him immense pressure.

Yan Fa Realm existences have already come into contact with the Laws of Heaven and Earth; they use Divine Abilities to condense the Laws of Heaven and Earth, drawing the mighty power of Heaven and Earth into themselves. A single Yan Fa Realm expert can easily suppress several Divine Soul Realm existences.

Upon seeing the traces of Law manifested on the old woman's body, Li Qi instantly recognized her Realm, filling his heart with shock.

Little did Li Qi know that while he was astonished by the appearance of a Yan Fa Realm expert, the other party was also greatly surprised. The Palm Sun and Moon that Li Qi had just used was too extraordinary, possessing the terrifying power to manipulate the sun and moon!

This level of Great Divine Power was unheard of, the first time this Yan Fa Realm expert had ever witnessed such a thing!

Facing the suddenly appearing Yan Fa Realm expert, Li Qi took a deep breath, suppressed the unease in his heart, and slowly spoke.

"Greetings, Senior. May I ask why Senior has been secretly following this Junior?"

The Yan Fa Realm expert opposite him also smiled.

"Li Qi, no need to be nervous. This old man holds no ill will towards you."

"This old man's name is Yu Hanshan. I am under orders from the Young Clan Leader to monitor Gu Shaoshang and others from the Heavens Mandate Society. If these individuals act recklessly, I am to kill them on the spot."

"The Young Clan Leader also mentioned you to this old man, instructing me to rescue you should you encounter danger. But it seems... you don't need this old man's rescue."

Yu Hanshan looked at the directions where Gu Shaoshang and the others had been flattened, smiling helplessly.

Li Qi also roughly understood what was going on.

There was only one Young Clan Leader he knew: the Young Clan Leader of the Yu Clan's fourth branch... Yu Zimo!

"Did Brother Zimuo ask Senior to protect me?"

Yu Hanshan smiled slightly and slowly nodded.

Li Qi finally relaxed. After all that, they were on the same side. He had been shocked and uneasy when he saw the Yan Fa Realm expert appear.

If a Yan Fa Realm expert were to attack him, Li Qi wouldn't just be unable to defeat them; even escaping would be a huge problem. Fortunately, such a thing did not happen.

"Gu Shaoshang and his group have committed many evil deeds in the Blood Abyss. This time, this old man caught them in the act and originally intended to eliminate them, but I didn't expect them all to die by your hand. That certainly saved this old man some trouble..."

Yu Hanshan said with admiration in his tone.

"Li Qi, your strength is impressive. This old man no longer needs to worry about your safety. There are probably not many existences in this Blood Abyss that can threaten you anymore."

"That's enough. This old man will return to report. You may do as you please."

Hearing that Yu Hanshan was about to leave, Li Qi quickly said, "Junior thanks Senior for the protection, and also thanks Brother Zimuo for his concern..."

Yu Hanshan nodded, and his figure quickly disappeared.

After the Yan Fa Realm expert left, Li Qi also let out a long sigh of relief.

"I didn't expect this trip to the Blood Abyss to not only draw out Gu Shaoshang and his group, but also a powerful Yan Fa Realm existence!"

Li Qi's emotions had gone through great ups and downs, and it took him a while to calm down.

"That Yu Zimo is truly considerate. Not only did he personally step forward to solve my troubles, but he even arranged for a Yan Fa Realm existence to look after me..."

Li Qi had never dared to imagine such treatment before.

Although Li Qi never took Gu Shaoshang and his group seriously from beginning to end and didn't need external protection, he didn't expect Yu Zimo to go to such lengths, which greatly improved Li Qi's impression of him.

"Never mind. I'll thank him properly after I get out."

Li Qi sighed softly and continued to head towards the deepest part of the Blood Abyss.

Although Gu Shaoshang and the others were dead, Li Qi still had one important thing to do: Nirvana!

Since he arrived in the Immortal Martial World, Li Qi had been cultivating for a long time, accumulating a large number of Potential Points. However, he had delayed his second Nirvana, which naturally had his own considerations.

The bone fragment that recorded the Nine Revolutions Nirvana Sutra came from a Phoenix remnant, and there were indeed Phoenixes in the Immortal Martial World.

Li Qi had inquired and learned that Phoenixes were not in the Azure Sky Domain but far away, hundreds of millions of miles distant. But even so... Li Qi dared not rashly undergo his second Nirvana.

Nirvana Rebirth was a unique secret art of the Phoenix Clan. Li Qi was worried that those Phoenixes might sense him when he underwent Nirvana here, and he was concerned they might come looking for him.

Li Qi didn't want to deal with those Phoenixes for now.

Even though the location of those Phoenixes was very far, hundreds of millions of miles away, for true experts, hundreds of millions of miles could be crossed in an instant. He had to be cautious.

To complete the second Nirvana... he had to find a secure place.

And this Blood Abyss was just right!

The Blood Abyss was not in the main world of the Immortal Martial World but within an alternate dimension.

It was far from the Immortal Martial World, connected only by a thin passage. It was extremely difficult for events happening here to be perceived by the outside world.

Li Qi traveled all the way to the core of the Blood Abyss. The space here was extremely chaotic. Li Qi leaped and directly entered a spatial rift.

Three Thousand Blood Realms!

Layers of Realm barriers appeared out of thin air, concealing Li Qi's figure.

This time, Li Qi activated thirty blood-colored Realm barriers, with thirty layers of blood-colored Small Worlds nested within each other, protecting Li Qi within them and ensuring that not a single trace of Qi leaked out.

"The Blood Abyss, spatial rifts... plus my Three Thousand Blood Realms."

"If I'm still discovered by those Phoenixes like this... then I'll accept it."

After confirming that all preparations were complete, Li Qi's eyes became firm, and he slowly said,

"Strengthen the Nine Revolutions Nirvana Sutra!"
