94: A brutal pleasure...will end in brutality

Since Li Qi’s arrival, Tiger Cage City had experienced the worst weather in its history.

Boundless Sword Qi poured down from the sky like rain; these Sword Qi were incredibly sharp, capable of cutting through metal and jade. Even city walls several zhang high could be easily pierced by these Sword Qi!

Under the barrage of Sword Qi, one Qi Country soldier after another was pierced through, their bodies shot full of holes like a hornet's nest, turning into a pile of rotten flesh.

Even if these soldiers hid in houses, it was useless; many houses also collapsed under the barrage of Sword Qi!

These soldiers, along with their houses, were all shattered by Li Qi's Sword Qi!

Such a terrifying sight was like an apocalyptic natural disaster. Those who witnessed it were too shocked to speak, only able to let out screams of terror!

[Potential Points + 2]

[Potential Points + 1]

[Potential Points + 5]

[Potential Points + 2]

[......]

Dense notifications streamed past Li Qi's eyes like a waterfall, forming an exaggerated data flow!

And the Potential Points on his System page were increasing at a terrifying rate!

[Potential Points: 70,000]

[Potential Points: 80,000]

[Potential Points: 90,000]

......

When Li Qi had killed the last Qi Country soldier in Tiger Cage City, the Potential Points in his hand quickly surpassed the 100,000 mark!

This was a terrifying amount of Potential Points; Li Qi had never had so many Potential Points in his hand before.

After the battle, Li Qi's figure floated down from the sky, standing atop a gate tower. He looked at the tragic scene in the city, his expression calm.

The corpses of the Qi Country soldiers on the ground were mangled and buried under rubble, looking utterly ridiculous no matter how one saw them.

Moments ago, these soldiers were still wreaking havoc and indulging themselves here, but who could have imagined that moments later, all of them would die a violent death?

Brutal pleasures… will ultimately end in brutality.

At this moment, there were no more rogue soldiers causing trouble in Tiger Cage City, only a deathly silence on the ground…

“Tap, tap…”

“Tap, tap…”

“Tap, tap…”

Soon, this calm was broken.

Footsteps sounded, and women in disheveled clothes emerged from various parts of the city. They looked around in fear, only to find that there were no more rogue soldiers in the city.

All the Qi Country rogue soldiers had died tragically on the ground… and Li Qi’s figure had long since disappeared.

“We’re saved?”

“Wuwuwuwuwu… We’re finally saved.”

“I never thought someone would actually come to save me… Wuwuwuwu…”

“Where is the Immortal? Where is the Immortal who just saved us?”

“He’s no longer here…”

“Such a great kindness, yet we cannot thank the Immortal in person… Wuwu…”

“Henceforth, this concubine will build a temple for the Immortal and offer daily sacrifices…”

These women witnessed Li Qi's actions. They could not clearly see Li Qi's face from high in the sky, nor did they know Li Qi's name. They only saw the Sword Qi, which was like a natural disaster.

Even an Immortal descending to the world would be no more than this.

Therefore, these women referred to him as an Immortal, shedding tears of gratitude…

......

With the matter concluded, Li Qi left Tiger Cage City.

There were still many cities like Tiger Cage City occupied by Qi Country. The scenes in those cities were not much different from Tiger Cage City; even if they weren't Hell… they were close.

Qi Country was founded on martial prowess, revered military strength, and had a fierce populace. Its soldiers were even more so, ferocious and brutal, casually slaughtering cities as if it were a game.

The inaction of the Great Han court further emboldened the Qi Country soldiers. At the border between the two countries, the common people suffered, a scene of misery.

Since that was the case, Li Qi intended to travel along this border, both for the common people… and for himself.

Li Qi had already achieved Land Immortal, and his time in this Realm would likely not be much longer. Perhaps soon… he would follow in Ancestral Master Ji Ying's footsteps and Break Through the Void Realm.

And Li Qi had also asked Ji Zhizhang about Breaking Through the Void Realm.

However, the level of this question was too high. Ji Zhizhang was, after all, only a Peak Great Grandmaster, so he didn't know much, but he still told Li Qi everything he knew.

When a Martial Artist reaches the Realm of a Land Immortal, they have already reached the pinnacle of this Realm, and further progress in martial cultivation is hopeless.

If one still wants to Breakthrough to a higher martial Realm, then one must go to another world.

And this… is Breaking Through the Void Realm!

Just as shallow water cannot sustain a Dragon, Dragons are only born in the deep oceans.

As for the world one goes to when Breaking Through the Void Realm… it is called the “Upper Realm.”

Upper Realm is not the true name of that world; it is just a general term, and it is said that there is not just one Upper Realm, but many Upper Realms.

These Upper Realms are all more powerful and mysterious places than this Realm, and the Opportunity to Breakthrough the limits of a Land Immortal and reach a higher martial Realm… lies within the Upper Realm!

Li Qi yearned for that Upper Realm immensely. Just a few words from Ji Zhizhang made his heart excited.

But Li Qi didn’t know if it would be relatively easy to acquire Potential Points in the Upper Realm, or if there would be some difficulties.

Given this, it would be proper to collect more Potential Points while he could.

Li Qi’s eyes flickered, and he continued towards the next city occupied by Qi Country…
