Myriad Paths

Li Qi thought for a while and felt that he was usually a kind person, and his words and deeds were basically fair and peaceful, so he should have no enemies.

Even if there is one, it should be the kind of Demon Lord that swallows the sky.

Of course, now that things have happened, it is no longer possible to say 'impossible'. It has already happened anyway, so why not speculate on who is plotting against you behind the scenes.

Which of my enemies are capable of contacting a fifth-grade dragon?

Li Qi thought about it and felt that the most likely possibility was Buddhism.

Li Qi once killed Monk Zenzhi, and then Monk Zenzhi's master, the black-skinned monster monk whose name was unknown, came, but was slapped to death by Boyue's protector, Senior Le Ya.

And this black-skinned demon monk is a member of Mahakala's lineage, and it can be seen that he is also an orthodox inheritance, following the path of the fusion of Buddha and demon.

If we speculate from this direction, we can look up from the clue of Buddhism.

Well, that's a direction.

That being the case, so be it.

Li Qi got what he wanted, so he stood up, looked at the seventh-grade shark man, and said: "The clues you gave are very useful, but there is one more thing I want to discuss with you about this dragon. "

"Can you sell this piece of dragon scale to me? By the way, I also want a way for you to transform the dragon energy in the dragon scale and then inject it into other life forms. You don't need to give me the process of cultivating a mother clam. I just want the dragon energy." Just convert it.”

Li Qi said this to the seventh-grade shark.

But he saw the expression of the seventh-grade shark changed, and his expression was suddenly full of anger!

Are you kidding? This thing is one of the core technologies of the Bai Zhu family, and it is part of the foundation of the foundation!

This man has such a big face, and relying on his advanced cultivation, he actually asked for this thing.

However, after all, he was highly cultivated... He couldn't beat him, so he didn't attack directly. Instead, he said: "I'm afraid you will be disappointed. I can't make the decision on this matter myself. Even if you kill me, I'm afraid it won't help."

"It's okay. Of course I know you can't make the decision. You can just be a mouthpiece. Tell your senior management for me that I am willing to use the cultivation method of witchcraft in exchange. I see that your cultivation process is quite primitive. Mussel Mother The success rate of transformation is not high, it wastes too much dragon energy.”

"I will use the orthodox cultivation method of witchcraft in exchange for your method of transforming dragon energy. Go and inform someone who can speak. I believe he will make the right decision." Li Qi waved his hand and said.

"The cultivation method of witchcraft... Who are you? This thing is the specialty of the shamans in the southwest. It is difficult for ordinary people to get a glimpse of it. As a member of the devil's path, how can you have the method of witchcraft?" The shark immediately said asked.

"Go if you are told. You have already said that you can't make the decision. Since you can't make the decision, what explanation do you need? When the person who can make the decision comes, I will naturally explain to him." Li Qi scolded.

These words made the shark feel uncomfortable, but he could not refute it. He just bowed slightly, said no more words, and left here.

Li Qi also disappeared here and entered a state of harmony with nature.

He also needs to make some preparations to deal with possible encirclement and suppression.

Who knows if the other party went to call for reinforcements? Li Qi was just pretending to be an expert. He wasn't an idiot. He didn't really think he was invincible, so he didn't take any precautions.

Both parties are making intensive preparations.

After about an hour, Li Qi had already prepared his own things, so he continued to sit where he was and began to observe the movement of dragon scales and dragon energy and do some previews.

About a quarter of an hour passed.

Sudden--

A huge amount of pressure is coming!

Across a huge distance, the aura hit Li Qi like a wave!

The river turned and the tsunami sounded like thunder, and a white line roared in the water, like lightning rushing into the clouds, and the roaring waves were like the roar of a white lion, shocking and surging!

However, around Li Qi, a clear moonlight suddenly rippled.

The moon is pale and clear, the water is clear and shallow, and does not follow the beautiful flowers. The strong beauty is fleeting and has no basis.

Shen Shuibi's amulet released its power at this moment. After all, it was made by a rabbit who reluctantly pulled out its tail hair. It could just resist the pressure, which was so easy.

"Fifth grade... That should really be talkative." Li Qi felt the steady pressure and thought to himself.

Releasing such pressure in the air should be just to scare people. Unfortunately, Li Qi would not be frightened by this kind of thing, and this kind of pressure could not break through the amulet given by Shen Shuibi.

The powers released by the two offset each other, and Li Qi also stood up from his sitting position.

After all, he is a fifth-grade person, so he should be treated seriously. At least he should have basic courtesy. He should not be labeled as "rude" by the other party and then beaten up. Where is the logic in this?

The elders will not take action because of this.

However, Li Qi immediately discovered that what came was not the fifth-grade body.

But he saw the seventh-grade shark from before, holding a magic weapon that seemed to have the ability to project, walking towards inside.

This projection... seems to really be able to transmit part of the power, so it has real pressure.

This projection is a demonic dragon.

It was not a demonic dragon transformed from a sea beast, but a demonic dragon transformed into a mermaid.

This mermaid practiced the demonic way and transformed himself into a dragon, showing a strange posture.

His upper body still looks like a mermaid, but the fish tail on his lower body has turned into the snake-shaped dragon tail commonly possessed by demon dragons, which is covered with scales.

Li Qi couldn't see clearly what was carved on the scales because the projection was very blurry, but he thought it must be extremely powerful.

The projection had just been brought in by the seventh-grade shark, and he said directly: "I heard... you want to use the method of witchcraft cultivation in exchange for the method of transforming dragon energy."

"I have met my seniors. Yes, I want to exchange this method. This is a fair transaction. I think it is very suitable. I can even say... you have taken a big advantage. After all, there is more than one method for transforming dragon energy. But there is only one method for cultivating witchcraft in the whole world," Li Qi said.

"Where did you come from such a method?" the projection asked again.

"My sect's inheritance, I am a wizard." Li Qi showed off his special skills as a wizard, changing the surrounding sky into his own small world.

The projection saw this, and then glanced at the seventh-grade shark from before.

The seventh-level shark man hurriedly bowed down: "Elder! I just saw the demonic energy on his body. This person is definitely a demon! There can be no mistake!"

"You are already wrong." The projection said, and then looked at Li Qi: "A wizard who has also practiced magic... no wonder he can propose this kind of deal. Aren't you afraid of being pursued by the master? You are not afraid... I am very afraid. ”

Yes, if this kind of thing is leaked, someone might be able to trace it.

"If someone comes after me because of this, it will just be that the transaction is invalidated. I will not have the opportunity to spread this method to outsiders, and you will not use witchcraft to cultivate it again. This matter will be buried, but I will only suffer the loss, not "?" Li Qi said with a relaxed look.

"There are many ghost witches in the witchcraft lineage. How can I be sure that the one who comes will be a reasonable witch?" The projection asked: "Sometimes, it is easier to invite gods than to send them away."

"Witches have always been good at sending gifts to gods." Li Qize replied, "Can't you just let the person next to you learn it? If a ghost witch comes and wants to silence him, he won't do it. will be found on you."

"Indeed, a good idea, Bai Zhu Yingbo, you go." The projection gave an order to the seventh-grade shark next to him.

The seventh-level shark trembled all over, and his lips kept moving, as if he wanted to say something.

"If you have nothing to do, I will preach three times for you. If you have something to do, I will preach to your son ten times and ensure that he can reach the eighth grade alive. As for the seventh grade, it depends on his understanding. You can choose ." The projection said calmly.

The seventh-level shark raised his head, looked at the projection, and then at Li Qi. He fell into silence, but his expression was not so panicked, and he seemed to be thinking.

Li Qi, on the other hand, was thoughtful after seeing this scene.

Does the way of Tianyan also value inheritance? Is it the inheritance itself that matters, the bloodline, or the inheritance of the path?

If it is the inheritance of a Tao, then like other Tao traditions, it needs successors.

But the Way of Heavenly Evolution does not seem to require successors. No matter where anyone is, he will always have to face cruel natural competition, especially in underdeveloped worlds.

In the world, this kind of competition for survival has been eliminated. Taoism has become the main battle, not the competition for survival. After all, no Taoism will worry about survival.

So for the way of Tianyan, what is the significance of bloodline inheritance? They seem to be the exact opposite of other paths.

Other paths are Taoist struggles, which are battles of ideas, philosophies and beliefs, but they do not care about the competition for survival, nor do they need to compete for the living environment and living materials. The environment is relatively relaxed.

But the Way of Heavenly Evolution is very different. They have completely opposite properties. The Way of Heavenly Evolution has no moral dispute with any great system, but it extremely encourages competition for survival.

It seems that they compete purely for the sake of competition and fight for the sake of fighting. Even if there is no shortage of supplies, they deliberately create many fights and even attract many outsiders to join this survival arena.

Li Qi absolutely believed that the reason why no one helped clean up Long Jun's wreckage was to use this wreckage to infinitely increase the competition in the East China Sea.

In such a competition for survival, what is the inheritance of blood? There is even a concept of power called ‘family’.

I can't figure it out, but... let's keep it in mind for now and think about it slowly later.

Just when Li Qi was thinking about this, the seventh-grade shark named Bai Zhu Yingbo finally figured it out.

Although the elder said 'he can choose', he actually had no choice.

If you can’t choose to go, the elder will choose someone else to go.

And the person who replaces him will not only replace this task, but even his entire life. He will no longer be in charge of an East Island, and may even be sent outside the territory...

So, he stood up tremblingly, walked to Li Qi, cupped his hands and said, "Your Excellency, please... pass on the teachings."

"Okay." Li Qi nodded, then stretched out his hand to gather his thoughts.

——————————

When Li Qi left the water, it was already a day later.

Fortunately, the Mermaid girl named Lei Fang returned home. At least she was safe for the time being. Li Qi did not trouble her or expose her existence.

As for what she thinks and what she will encounter in the future... that's fine. Li Qi can't take care of her for a lifetime. Besides, two ninth-grade magic weapons are also a huge sum of money.

The Bai Zhu family also successfully obtained the cultivation technique of witchcraft.

Li Qi did not give any method for cultivating Gu insects, but he gave a universal solution, which is the idea used by the witchcraft lineage to induce mutations in inferior Gu insects.

This is what Li Qi learned when he first developed the witchcraft silkworm. After all, the core of the witchcraft silkworm is actually the art of witchcraft and the humane method of breeding monsters.

The Bai Zhu family has no interest in cultivating Gu worms, and there is no environment for cultivating Gu worms under the sea, unlike the natural environment near Wushen Mountain.

Wu Dao has always been committed to maintaining the natural balance of heaven and earth. Therefore, in the environment of Wushen Mountain, where the source of heaven and earth is prosperous and the spiritual energy is as strong as in ancient times, even mortals can live up to 200 years, be healthy and strong, and be disease-free and disaster-free. The talent is also far beyond that of human beings.

This kind of environment can naturally give birth to a large number of spiritual creatures.

The number of various types of plants, minerals, and even poisonous insects with strange abilities far exceeds that of the outside world. There are heterogeneous species everywhere, and even the same species has tens of thousands of variants, each with different characteristics.

When outsiders come to the sphere of influence of Wushen Mountain, they will only think that it is full of all kinds of strange lives, dangers and opportunities coexist, and there are strange and dangerous animals and plants everywhere, as well as strange local people who are good at witchcraft.

This is the foundation for cultivating Gu insects.

With the help of these endless special animals and plants, the witchcraft can develop like this. Many of their poisonous insects do not even need to be cultivated. After being caught and released, they can kill many people.

The seabed obviously does not have such conditions.

However, the ideas are common.

The idea of ​​​​inducing mutations in Gu insects may be used in mussel mothers to produce more heterogeneous species. In this way, pearls will also have more strange characteristics. As long as they are tried in large quantities, there will eventually be a yield, grade, and characteristics. All suitable varieties can be spread out to become new mussels, and there will be a brand new pearl field.

This was something the Bai Zhu family could not refuse, so they handed over their core technology, a method to strengthen the living body through dragon energy, and a piece of dragon scale with dragon blood, which is the source of dragon energy and is Jiaolong Tianhongjun's, this is Tianhongjun's 'reward' to the Baizhu family.

This kind of enhancement is extremely powerful and deadly. It can turn a low-grade pearl clam into a 'mother clam', but it will also directly cut off all possibilities of the mother clam, destroy the small world in the body, greatly shorten the life span, and even reduce the ability of magical powers and spells. All abilities will be lost. It can be said that except for the illusory 'grade', nothing can be gained.

But whether it’s Li Qi or the Bai Zhu family, what they want is ‘grade’.

Everyone is happy.
