513: What you see is the truth

Li Qi didn't know where the Ancient Origin Realm was, but that wasn't a problem; after seeing that grandfather and grandson pair who had come to the Star Fragment Sea to look for Starry Sky Iron, he knew.

By simply using the [Heavens Secret Dao] to reverse-calculate the trajectory they took to get here, it wouldn't be difficult to find the location of the Ancient Origin Realm.

If they were natives of the Ancient Origin Realm, even if they had temporarily left it and were far away on the other side of the starry sky, a mysterious connection still existed between them and the Ancient Origin Realm.

They could rely on this connection to find the Ancient Origin Realm in the starry sky, allowing them to return smoothly without getting lost in the void.

This was an ability mastered by all inhabitants of the Source Realms.

It was a bit more troublesome for Li Qi, as he needed to perform some calculations to determine the position of the new Source Realm.

After locking onto the position of the Ancient Origin Realm and calculating a safe route from the Star Fragment Sea to the Ancient Origin Realm, Li Qi set off.

Li Qi suddenly thought of something and felt a bit annoyed.

"I miscalculated. If I had known, I should have left a few Clones in the Origin Realm."

"By having the Clones cause some commotion in the Origin Realm, I could have attracted more attention and bought myself more time."

Although most of the Saint Kings were rushing toward the Origin Realm, these Saint Kings weren't fools. If they exhausted all their methods and still couldn't find anyone after searching everywhere, they would realize Li Qi was no longer in the Origin Realm.

Then they would inevitably change direction to search elsewhere, and the other Source Realms would likely be their primary focus.

"I'll be smarter this time and leave a few Clones wherever I go... it'll make it easier to stir up trouble later."

After activating the [Divine Travel Dao], the Star Fragment Sea rapidly shrank behind Li Qi until it vanished from sight.

From beginning to end, Li Qi never made contact with that grandfather and grandson pair, because there was no need.

Given his current identity and situation, making contact rashly would only harm them.

It was better for everyone to just go their separate ways...

...

After traveling continuously through the starry sky for two days, Li Qi finally found the Ancient Origin Realm.

This was also one of the nine great Source Realms, with a status and foundation not inferior to the Origin Realm; basically, whatever the Origin Realm had, this place had as well.

Standing in the starry sky and looking at the incredibly massive Ancient Origin Realm before him, Li Qi felt a momentary surge of emotion.

"The Ancient Origin Realm... what a good place."

"But it's hard to say what it'll be like in the future..."

Because the Origin Realm had produced two Children of the Great Path in succession, while the other Source Realms hadn't even seen a shadow of one, let alone an actual Child of the Great Path.

Therefore, the status of the Origin Realm among the nine great Source Realms would inevitably continue to rise in the future!

A large number of people from other Source Realms would certainly migrate there.

To such a blessed land, everyone would scramble to enter. Perhaps... the next Child of the Great Path will be me?

Who could say for sure?

Even if the Child of the Great Path isn't me but someone else, I could still snatch them into my hands!

Don't they know that those in a favored position gain the advantage?

But Li Qi knew his own situation; he wasn't a Child of the Great Path at all.

Although he had mastered a vast number of the Three Thousand Great Daos, these didn't come from the natural talent of a Child of the Great Path; they were calculated and analyzed by his System at the cost of a massive amount of Potential Points.

The reasons behind this were not easy to explain. If outsiders learned of the existence of a Heaven-Defying object like the System... the trouble would be even greater than him being a Child of the Great Path.

Thus, Li Qi always remained silent and offered no defense regarding his identity as a Child of the Great Path.

Since you all say I am...

Then so be it.

Once I've fused a few more Sacred Thrones... I'll kill you all!

Li Qi's gaze turned sharp, and his figure lunged forward, plunging straight into the Ancient Origin Realm...

...

Two months later.

Li Qi was blending in somewhere in the Ancient Origin Realm. He was now an elegant Young Master dressed in white, with looks so handsome he didn't seem like a Mortal. He even ostentatiously held a folding fan, fanning himself whenever he felt like it.

At this moment, Li Qi was chatting with a group of newly made friends, looking relaxed and perfectly composed.

After arriving in this unfamiliar Ancient Origin Realm, Li Qi gathered various pieces of information to quickly integrate himself while also returning to his old trade: reselling Great Dao Text in exchange for creation crystal stones.

This time, Li Qi acted even more cautiously.

Every time he made a move, he disguised his identity and appearance, leaving very few clues. Combined with his superior anti-tracking methods, even if someone noticed something unusual, they could forget about cornering him.

In these two months, Li Qi had analyzed all the Three Thousand Great Daos in his dao ancient book and understood every single Great Dao Text within it!

The entire dao ancient book held no more secrets for him.

By now, the number of Three Thousand Great Daos Li Qi had mastered... had reached a staggering 2,333!

Such a terrifying number was a figure that other Dao Ancestors and Saint Kings could hardly reach in their entire lifetimes!

After mastering so many of the Three Thousand Great Daos, Li Qi could clearly feel his body undergoing a subtle yet profound transformation.

He was becoming stronger!

And also more profound!

From time to time, Dao Rhyme would even manifest on his body!

Sometimes, in a daze, Li Qi felt as if his spirit and consciousness had crossed the boundaries of time and space, breaking through infinite dimensions... and he could actually see some grand and indescribable existences!

The things he saw were beyond description...

And beyond naming...

Yet they possessed boundless, great power...

It was both 'Nothingness', born out of non-existence...

And 'Being', encompassing all things; the shadows of everything in the world could be found within it...

Li Qi knew that this unnameable thing he saw... was the 'Dao'!

It was not a manifestation of his own Dao... but the 'Dao' itself!

What is seen is the Dao!
