228: The world will change

The moment Li Qi noticed the first crack on the Otherworldly Slave's face, he vaguely guessed the reason behind it.

The Otherworldly Slave's strength was clearly immense, so why were cracks appearing on his face?

It felt as if his body couldn't withstand the strain and was cracking open on its own.

So why couldn't it withstand it?

Li Qi speculated it was because this wasn't the Otherworldly Slave's true body; the Otherworldly Slave's shell before him was merely a Otherworldly Slave, and furthermore, it was the weakest Otherworldly Slave Li Qi had specifically chosen after careful selection.

Such a fellow could not only not bear the Otherworldly Slave's full power, but even if the Otherworldly Slave merely exerted a little force, this body would collapse on its own from being overwhelmed.

The cracks appearing on his face were a sign that his body was overwhelmed!

Upon realizing this, Li Qi immediately took targeted measures.

He clashed fiercely with this Otherworldly Slave, luring him to continuously use stronger powers, placing a greater burden on the body he had taken Possession of.

Once this body could no longer bear it, it would surely collapse!

Finally, after both sides unleashed their full arsenals and clashed fiercely, Li Qi finally waited for the Otherworldly Slave's body to reach its limit.

The Otherworldly Slave's body began to shatter into pieces, gradually turning into nothingness, and just as he was about to completely disappear, his voice slowly rang out.

"Desecrator... the war between us has just begun!"

"You have... nowhere to run!"

This was not a curse; the Otherworldly Slave's tone was calm, as if merely stating an established fact.

A moment later, there was no trace of the Otherworldly Slave in this world; he had completely dissipated...

...

After a long while, the broken sword flew over.

The eye on the sword's body was also about to close, and its voice carried an undisguised weariness.

"Li Qi, I've expended too much... I need to go into slumber for a while."

Li Qi nodded: "No matter, you may stay here and rest peacefully."

The Sword Soul's voice grew fainter and fainter: "During this time... the world is changing... be careful... Righteous Qi Alliance... absolutely..."

Before he could finish speaking, the eye on the sword's body had completely closed, and the broken sword lost its power, falling to the ground.

Just now, the Sword Soul and the Otherworldly Slave who had taken Possession had fought a desperate battle, using explosive secret techniques, which consumed an immense amount of Qi. He was merely a wisp of a remnant soul and didn't even have a physical body, so how could he withstand such consumption? He had now fallen into slumber.

The next time the Sword Soul awakens... it's unknown when that will be.

Li Qi stood silently for a long time. The Crane Children had also suffered considerable injuries and were all silent, the air somewhat oppressive.

After a while, Li Qi stepped forward, picked up the broken sword, and then looked at the Crane Children.

"You may all disperse. After you've recovered from your injuries, cultivate well."

"We obey!"

The Crane Children quickly left, and Li Qi's figure soared into the air, flying towards the Qingxu Palace.

Arriving before the altar in the palace, Li Qi placed the broken sword on it and couldn't help but sigh.

Even the Qingxu Palace itself had become dilapidated.

The Otherworldly Slave's Six Paths Reincarnation: Hungry Ghost Dao had been extremely powerful, and the terrifying pulling force had affected the Qingxu Palace. Many houses had been sucked away and devoured by that terrifying giant mouth, and some areas were even left with only their foundations.

Li Qi's entire Azure Void Realm had become dilapidated, a stark contrast to its previous vibrant scenery.

After a long sigh, Li Qi sat cross-legged and began to condense Void Law Spirit Talismans. Soon, Li Qi had condensed six Law Spirit Talisman.

With a flick of his hand, the six Law Spirit Talisman flew out of the Qingxu Palace, transforming into six streams of light that flew to various parts of this world.

The Law Spirit Talisman dissipated between heaven and earth, and the immense Law power nourished the entire world, causing this world to begin its recovery.

The cracked earth began to heal, vegetation began to regrow on the barren land, the sky was covered with clouds, and the dried-up rivers began to flow again...

In less than half a day, the Azure Void Realm had already returned to its original state.

Although the Otherworldly Slave's attack was powerful, it only affected the surface of the Azure Void Realm and did not harm the Origin of this world.

Seeing the Qingxu Palace also return to its undamaged state, Li Qi's mood also improved somewhat.

Li Qi was very concerned about what the Sword Soul had just said: "Be careful of the Righteous Qi Alliance? Why?"

The Righteous Qi Alliance is an ancient and powerful Alliance with great influence; many major forces have seats within it, and Li Qi had also heard of the Righteous Qi Alliance's name.

Generally speaking, the Righteous Qi Alliance does not interfere in worldly affairs; they only maintain the safety of all under heaven. If something causes the Righteous Qi Alliance to act, it only means the situation has become extremely dire.

"Why did the Sword Soul tell me to be careful of the Righteous Qi Alliance?"

"Is there a problem with the Righteous Qi Alliance?! Is it related to the Otherworldly Slave?"
