Myriad Paths

In the twentieth year, Shen Shuibi finally reacted.

From this period of time, Li Qi no longer ran out all day, but stayed at home to digest the books he had read before, sort out his thoughts, and at the same time observe Shen Shuibi's condition so that he could take care of her.

Almost the moment the fetus was formed, Shen Shuibi visibly weakened. The fetus made no secret of its greed and unscrupulously absorbed the mother's blood to enrich its body.

Although this was instinctive, Li Qi still felt a little angry towards this unborn child.

He didn't know why he had such thoughts. Normally, shouldn't there be all kinds of love and joy when seeing a child being gestated?

But those were not important. His emotions could hardly affect Li Qi now. He immediately started to activate the spirit gathering array that had been prepared for Shen Shuibi to replenish his cultivation. He also took out the elixirs that had been prepared long ago. , replenishing the Qi and blood absorbed by the fetus for Shen Shuibi.

Fortunately, Shen Shuibi was at the fifth level after all. This kind of absorption would not be life-threatening for her. After all, she was just pregnant. It was such a trivial matter, but she still felt that Li Qi was making a fuss out of a molehill.

However, it is just blood now, and after a while, it will start to absorb other things.

Vitality and cultivation have even begun to affect the smooth running of the Dao in the body. This little life, before it was born, was Shen Shuibi's 'Dao injury'.

Li Qi was extremely nervous and even started to get angry at the fetus, but Shen Shuibi smiled happily. She always felt a... strange feeling.

It was obvious that Qi, blood and vitality were being continuously absorbed, and the Tao in her body was not running smoothly and began to stagnate. Traces of various 'Tao injuries' began to appear, so that sometimes she would even fail when casting a certain spell, but she But there is no resistance.

The spell failed due to the sluggishness of the avenue. She had never encountered this kind of thing for at least eight thousand years. When she grew up, she had already become familiar with various spells, but she didn't want to fail at this time.

She had never been traumatized, but now she was experiencing it.

Dao injury, as the name suggests, is an injury to the Dao. Generally, it means that your Dao has been severely damaged. For example, someone uses a powerful offensive to expose the weaknesses of the Dao that the practitioner does not know about, or simply uses his Dao to , crushed your way.

In this way, when you realize the weakness of your own path, although there will be no unsmooth situation, you will find that the small world of your human body that used to function perfectly is now unsatisfactory, and this influence will gradually overwhelm you. Dao Heart, in the end, if a breakthrough cannot be made and the Dao injury is repaired, the path may even be cut off.

However, pregnancy is another reason. The small world of the human body is already perfect. If an extra organ suddenly appears, it will naturally lead to the inability of the body to operate satisfactorily. Unless you create a new method to adjust the body to It fits the situation of having one more child, otherwise it will definitely be unbalanced.

But there is no need for it. It will recover naturally after birth. It is too expensive to develop a special method for this and it will not take long.

This pregnancy lasts ten years.

In the past ten years, Li Qi has been almost inseparable.

This kind of relationship not only made the relationship between the two stronger, but also allowed Shen Shuibi to give birth to a child smoothly, a girl.

Li Qi had already predicted that Shen Shuibi was a moon essence and had a strong lunar energy. If the child was born without special treatment, it would easily deviate towards the negative side.

Being pregnant for ten years was indeed very difficult, but luckily I got through it.

However, the child born was even weirder. There was no human shape at all. It seemed that the nutrition was too sufficient. What was born was not a baby, but a...

Li Qi didn't know how to describe it.

Maybe, she gave birth to a ball?

A ball of light condensed by the moonlight exudes the fragrance of laurel and some kind of special fluctuations. Among them are the fluctuations of the Taiyin's Great Way that guides all things. It is the product of the combination of Shen Shuibi and Li Qi's Great Way.

Li Qi was confused when facing the ball.

He did know that there was a high-ranking god in heaven who was born as a ball after three years of pregnancy. He was later cut in half by his father with a sword and was born.

Li Qi was thinking about whether he should cut it open with his sword when Shen Shuibi slapped him away and asked him to quickly go to Zhu Fengdan to discuss it. If the time was delayed and the child was hurt, then Li Qi would not be able to carry it around.

Li Qi then hurriedly summoned the old horse and rushed to Zhu Fengdan's cave to explain the situation to him.

Zhu Fengdan came to the door in person. After understanding the situation, he believed that this was because the mother's nutrition was too sufficient, and the preparations made by Li Qi and Shen Shuibi were too exaggerated and profound, resulting in the child being born before he had time to digest the foundation from the mother's body. The brilliance in Zhou Dynasty is directly crystallized and solidified various kinds of pure energy, circulating around the Tao of Li Qi and Shen Shuibi.

This ball is essentially a tiny hole in which the real child lives.

Therefore, Zhu Fengdan gave Li Qi two choices.

The first one is just like what Li Qi thought before, split it with a sword, and the child will naturally come out. However, the consequence of this is that he will lose a lot of opportunities, and the road in the future will be more difficult. Talent It will drop a lot.

As for the crystallization of the pure air condensed around it, coupled with the rules of the great road formed by the fusion of Li Qi and Shen Shuibi, they will degenerate after falling off and become a magic weapon.

It is also commonly known as the accompanying magic weapon, which will become something that children are born with. Many powerful children have it, such as the famous Qinglian, or the hammer.

The second is to wait for the child to slowly absorb and gestate inside. Although she is not yet conscious, she can still absorb and digest these things by instinct alone. The final result is probably that she will be at the peak of the ninth level when she is born, and she can be at the peak of the ninth level at any time. If you can be promoted to the eighth level, your talent will be much better, and you can even catch up with many children of destiny, but there will be a problem.

That is the same problem as Destiny's Child. After digesting the Tao of Li Qi and Shen Shuibi, she must explore her own way in the future while being born with these 'Taos', otherwise she will be confused by her parents' Tao. , the upper limit that can be reached in the end cannot exceed the parents.

How to choose?

Li Qi was a little hesitant.

When Zhu Fengdan saw him hesitating, he almost kicked Li Qi out.

A turtle's temperament, thinking twice about everything, really hasn't changed at all.

But Shen Shuibi was particularly refreshing and neat and chose the second one directly.

Li Qi asked why, and Rabbit's answer was: "If it is a shackle, then I am also shackled by the empress and the others, so what does it matter? If she breaks through this layer of shackles, her future will be far better than the first one. I I don’t mind her being mediocre, but I want her to be a blockbuster.”

Zhu Fengdan laughed loudly, patted Li Qi on the shoulder and asked him to learn from it.

Then, he picked up the ball and placed a layer of protective formation on it. After that, the ball was fixed in the cave. It would not break out of the shell until the child inside was digested.

After that, Li Qi and Shen Shuibi relaxed a lot, because Zhu Fengdan said that it would take decades for this child to be conceived slowly. Now... just think of her as an egg. It will hatch by itself after a while, so don't worry about it. .

So, in the third and fourth decade, Li Qi became much more relaxed. He was neither anxious nor worried, and he didn't have any children to bother him.

It was also at this point in time that the Demon Prince's injuries finally healed.

He began to challenge others and invited Li Qi to attend the ceremony. This time, he no longer came to challenge at home, but issued a challenge, openly challenging people from other families to go to his place. This time, he no longer designated a specific person, But he would accept anyone who came to his door.

Many people in the world began to laugh at the Demon Prince, thinking that he was frightened by the little heavenly master and no longer dared to challenge the top geniuses. They could only find random things to lay the foundation for him.

Some people also laughed at him and said: "It is better not to get the Overlord Daoji in this way, it will be embarrassing."

However, Li Qi had no objections and was not prepared to express any opinions. Instead, he and Shen Shuibi went to the arena set up by the Demon Prince.

Perhaps for Li Qi's convenience, the Demon Prince's arena was set up in Annan, within the jurisdiction of Wushen Mountain.

There are many people who come to challenge the Demon Prince, and among them there are some super geniuses from the Daoist lineage, people like the Little Heavenly Master. They are all eager to try and try to see what the Demon Prince is like who can defeat the Little Heavenly Master.

But there are still some people who feel that the Demon Prince did not defeat the Little Heavenly Master at all, but only managed to win by chance by relying on the devil's life-preserving method. Therefore, by defeating the Demon Prince, they can win their reputation against the Demon Prince.

Others felt that the Demon Prince was too hateful and wanted to use the failures of others as a foundation, so they came to crusade, preparing to defeat the Demon Prince and completely cut off his path to supremacy.

No matter what, many young geniuses from all over the world came to find trouble for the Demon Prince.

Among them, there are many who are as strong as the Little Heavenly Master, because in these years, the seventh-level combat power theory has been updated. The battle videos between the Demon Prince and the Little Heavenly Master have been spread everywhere, and every family is studying and studying. The result was naturally that a bunch of people relied on these research results to quickly break through the previous limits and reach new limits.

It can be said that a battle between the Demon Prince and the Little Heavenly Master directly raised the seventh level limit of the entire world.

Of course, this kind of thing has happened often before. After all, the limit is constantly being refreshed again and again. Just like the world record, as long as a possibility is proved, someone will rush out soon.

Li Qi had no objection to this. Anyway, he was just going to watch the ceremony. It didn't matter whether the Demon Prince lost or won.

However, this time, Li Qi opened his eyes again.

After the theoretical breakthrough, those geniuses who were not as good as the Little Celestial Master in the past have now reached the level of the Little Celestial Master. What the theoretical breakthrough brings is a breakthrough in practice. Over the past few decades, this group of seventh-grade The combat effectiveness is really not increased at all.

This may be the benefit of being born in the world. Those seventh-level talents outside the territory are even less able to compete with the seventh-level geniuses in the world.

However, this was only the premise. What really opened Li Qi's eyes was that all of these people, one by one, showed off their power and were able to compete with the former Little Heavenly Masters. In just one day, they were all defeated by the Demon Prince.

In just one day, there were hundreds of people, and the Demon Prince was completely overwhelmed. He even said, "You all, come together."

Although the Demon Prince is still at level seven, Li Qi feels that it may be impossible for the opponent to kill him at this moment, but there is really no problem in defeating him.

It is true that Li Qi has made considerable progress in the past few decades. He has learned countless spells, with a guaranteed number of one hundred thousand, and has adjusted his own small world. He is now at his peak. The former Little Celestial Master, Li Qi I feel like I can win easily.

However, facing the Demon Prince after another breakthrough, Li Qi didn't think he could win.

There really is someone out there.

What this world lacks most is geniuses, and what is even more lacking is geniuses who are more powerful than geniuses.

Li Qi sighed to himself and watched the Demon Prince beat up all the people who came to the door.

Except for one person.

The super genius of Wushen Mountain, the seventh-level one, is the goddess Yao Ji of Wushan.

After all, this was done in the Annan area, so it was natural for the locals of Wushen Mountain to be restless.

This was the first time that Li Qi met Yao Ji, and she was different from the Little Heavenly Master. There was no communication with Li Qi from the beginning to the end. Li Qi didn't even see her face clearly because she was wearing a veil. She was the last one to challenge the Demon Prince.

The results were unsurprising.

Yao Ji was very strong, and Li Qi felt that her foundation in the seventh level was much more solid than his own, but she was still not as good as the Demon Prince.

Her methods were so miraculous that she transformed the almost solid little world into reality, and saw only the flow of heavenly principles. She waved her hand to create seas and land, and guided them into mountains and rivers. She completely reached the point where 'every wish comes true', which made Li Qi feel like he was Like a waste, I quickly recorded the video next to me, preparing to take it back to observe and learn a thing or two.

With such power, the evolved Demon Prince tried his best but still couldn't get even half a step closer to her.

However, in the end, the Demon Prince was seriously injured several times and recovered several times. He was exhausted and managed to break through and reach Yao Ji at a heavy cost.

Just after getting close to Yao Ji, Yao Ji decisively gave up.

She was also a witch, and her combat effectiveness at close range was almost non-existent. In order to avoid losing her dignity by being violently beaten by the Demon Prince, she simply gave up.

So, the Demon Prince won another round, and the progress reached two-tenths.

Li Qi originally wanted to talk to Yao Ji and learn how to turn reality into reality at the seventh level. Unfortunately, Yao Ji didn't give any face to Li Qi and ran away without even talking to her.

Li Qi couldn't say anything, so he could only give up.

After that, the Demon Prince quickly challenged all the great masters. In the past twenty years, he defeated all his opponents and even almost broke the martial arts master's heart.

He did it, and the whole world was mentioning his name.

In the end, the Taoist foundation was laid and he was promoted to the sixth level.

Li Qi followed the Demon Prince throughout the whole process and learned the experience of fighting.

He benefited a lot and felt that his combat effectiveness had increased by at least 50%.

At the same time, he also got the moment when the Demon Prince's promise was fulfilled.

The Demon Prince promised him to seal true knowledge.
