319: What year is it tonight?
The Divine Ability, Blazing Soul Incineration, is very powerful. It's an attack from the spiritual Domain that can directly burn the target's Divine Soul with flames!
If one doesn't have corresponding defensive measures, it's extremely difficult to resist attacks from this level... it almost always results in certain death upon impact.
The Nirvana ended, and Li Qi reviewed the entire Nirvana process, finding that this time's Nirvana was still so effortlessly smooth, achieving it without any suspense.
If it were any other Phoenix, they wouldn't even dream of achieving this without investing a huge amount of time and effort, and without the resolve to die!
It's worth noting that even the Phoenix Lord is currently only at the eighth Nirvana stage, and compared to Li Qi, who is at the seventh Nirvana stage, she is only one major Realm higher.
If Li Qi completes another Nirvana... he will be on equal footing with the Phoenix Lord!
But for now, Li Qi cannot continue with Nirvana.
Firstly, his Potential Points are no longer sufficient. He only has over 8 million points, but to complete the eighth Nirvana, he needs to consume a full 300 million Potential Points to elevate the Nirvana Art to the Major Achievement Realm, allowing him to complete the Nirvana without any danger.
Where can he find 300 million Potential Points?
Such a massive amount of Potential Points would be the death of Li Qi. It will likely take a great deal of effort to gather this sum of Potential Points.
He needs to carefully consider and come up with a stable method.
Secondly, Li Qi has just completed his seventh Nirvana, and his Realm is not yet stable. He still needs to spend some time adapting to his new power before he can proceed with the next Nirvana.
The Phoenix Clan's Nirvana Art is another power system independent of martial Dao. As long as one can continuously undergo Nirvana Rebirth, their Realm and power can continuously improve.
Although Li Qi's current martial Dao cultivation is still in the Enlightenment Realm Middle Stage, his attainment in the Dao of Nirvana... is comparable to an Early Stage Harmony Realm expert!
Even against Gu Mihua, the strongest Elder of the Four Seas Sect... Li Qi is confident he can defeat him!
And Li Qi's current strength makes him the undisputed number one person in the Four Seas Sect.
"Li Qi, you've become stronger again..."
A familiar voice sounded in Li Qi's ear. Li Qi looked in the direction of the voice, and was suddenly startled.
The Sword Soul had awakened!
A broken sword flew over from a distance, quickly arriving in front of Li Qi.
Since the last attack by the Abyssal Demon, although Li Qi fought back and repelled their assault, the Sword Soul had fallen into slumber due to excessive consumption.
Now, after a long time, the sleeping Sword Soul has finally recovered its power and awakened once again.
When the Sword Soul awakened again, he was also shocked.
He still remembered that when he fell asleep, Li Qi was still in the World King Realm, but when he opened his eyes again... Li Qi was already a Harmony Realm expert?
What the hell?!
Has that much time passed?
By all accounts, it shouldn't have!
Before he fell into a coma, the Sword Soul had concluded that he wouldn't need too much time to wake up... But why has so much time passed?
Hundreds of years?
Or thousands of years?
If that much time had truly passed, everything would have gone cold, the Abyssal Demon would have already made their move, and the Immortal Martial World might no longer exist.
After repeatedly observing Li Qi's state and confirming that he had indeed reached the Harmony Realm, the Sword Soul also fell silent.
After a long while, the Sword Soul tentatively asked,
"Li Qi, may I ask... what year is it now?"
Li Qi couldn't help but smile: "Don't overthink it, not much time has passed."
"From when you fell asleep until now... it's probably been about half a year."
At these words, the Sword Soul wondered if he had heard wrong, his voice rising an octave.
"What? Half a year?"
"Yes."
"Only half a year?!"
"Yes."
"You're saying you only took half a year... to Breakthrough from the World King Realm to the Harmony Realm?!"
The Sword Soul's voice was incredibly sharp as he cried out in disbelief.
"Calm down, it's just a small matter... is there a need for such a fuss?"
"Yes, that's right, I took half a year to Breakthrough to the Harmony Realm, you didn't mishear."
At this moment, the Sword Soul felt all common sense abandoning him. He felt the world before him was so unfamiliar, this world was so crazy... as if he had never truly understood this world!
Thinking back to the Five Directions Great Emperor of yesteryear, he was also at the Harmony Realm Peak, just one step away from the next level, the Samsara Realm.
Although Li Qi's current strength cannot be compared to the Five Directions Great Emperor of that time, he is not far off; they are both supreme experts of the Harmony Realm!
"How is this possible..."
"It shouldn't be..."
"Could there truly be such an absurd thing in this world?!"
The Sword Soul stood to the side, looking dejected and utterly defeated.
After a long time, the Sword Soul finally had to accept the reality before him.
Such talent and Luck... even the Five Directions Great Emperor of that time could not compare.
"Li Qi, I suddenly want to go out and take a walk, to clear my head."
The Sword Soul's tone was somewhat melancholic, speaking weakly to Li Qi.
However, Li Qi shook his head and said, "Going out to clear your head is fine, but there's still an important matter to attend to."
As he spoke, Li Qi raised his hand and gripped the hilt of the broken sword, power as vast as an abyss and as deep as the sea continuously flowing from Li Qi's arm into the broken sword!
"Let's talk after I refine this broken sword... and reforge your Sword Soul!"
