My Endless Life.

Chapter 643 Dao Heart Broken
The process of understanding the rules is not complicated.

At least that's true for Li Qi.

Having long been familiar with various rules, he could easily grasp their essence at this moment. The Daoist principles of the Cangxuan Realm unfolded before his eyes like a scroll, which he observed and understood.

He has found the Dao that aligns with the heart of love, and Li Qi is currently comprehending this Great Dao, his cultivation level is slowly improving.

Cultivation knows no time, and this is especially true in the Cangxuan Realm.

Li Qi had originally planned to leave after a few days of seclusion. After all, in the Myriad Star Realm, as long as one comprehends the rules, breaking through to the seventh rank is a natural process. At most, one would only need to go into seclusion for one or two months, and some geniuses could even leave in just a few days.

However, in the Cangxuan Realm, due to the different rules, the 'Dao' experienced is different, and the time it takes for Li Qi to break through is also getting longer.

A year passed in the blink of an eye. When the celestial music celebrating someone's breakthrough to True Immortal resounded in the sky, Li Qicai finally reached the seventh level.

That is, the True Immortal realm of the Cangxuan Realm.

Breaking through to True Immortal felt nothing special. If I had to describe it, it was that the noble air of the Myriad Star Realm that remained in Li Qi had transformed into an air that suited the Cangxuan Realm.

Combined with his ancient costume, Li Qi looked like a celestial being from a mythological story.

But looking at Li Qi's long white hair again, one might think that Li Qi is a senior master with white hair and a youthful face.

Li Qi sighed softly as he briefly observed his current appearance with his divine sense.

Even if Li Qi doesn't use the Dao of Great Love, the Dao aura he exudes will still make people feel good about him; in other words, people will think he is very handsome.

His appearance was already exceptional in the Myriad Star Realm, but now, with the amplification of the Path of Love, he is probably even more captivating to outsiders.

Li Qi wondered if she should wear a veil when she went out in the future...

It's a bit odd for a grown man to wear a veil.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Qi stopped worrying about it, because a peculiar stream of information flowed into his soul in a way he couldn't understand.

The moment he broke through, the information flow transformed into a massive amount of information, flooding into his mind.

"Is it...that old man??"

With the divine sense of a true immortal, Li Qi could barely discern the message contained in the information stream. He quickly realized that the person who sent the message was the old man he had met in the Misty Universe!

That tenth-tier powerhouse was seemingly nurtured by the last nutrient source of the entire universe!
he……

He entrusted all the legacy of his own world, including his understanding of his own powers, to Li Qi.

"It's related to creation too... Is this alchemy? Creation of life... Creation of souls... Is this high-level alchemy??"

After carefully examining the legacy left by the old man, Li Qi discovered that the powers the old man possessed and Li Qi's own alchemical powers were, in a sense, the same.

But older people need to be more skilled at using their powers!
At least Li Qi can create life now, but he cannot create souls!
Li Qi already understood the composition of life, and through the transformation of various substances, he could create a body exactly like a human's.

And ensure that the body's heart is beating, blood is flowing, and it can even breathe.

But Li Qi couldn't bring that person back to life because he had no soul.

The clones in the Myriad Star Realm possess souls because during cloning, the cloner copies a small portion of the original's soul into the cloned body.

This part of the soul has little impact on the main body, but after entering the clone, it will grow strong and become the soul that enables the clone to act.

This is not creation by the soul, it is merely replication of the soul.

Soul replication can also be achieved by Li Qi; Adam III was created as a 'relic life' by replicating Li Qi's soul.

But Li Qi cannot create souls.

The elderly can do it!

"This... is practically like the Creator..."

The ability to create matter and souls means that everything in the world can be created; this is simply the power of the Creator!

alchemy?
No, it is the Creator!
“This gift is really too…” Li Qi was about to say that the legacy left by the old man was too precious, but when he saw the last message left by the old man, he was speechless.

He saw the collapse in the old man's 'memory'.

The collapse swallowed up the desolate world where the old man was, along with the old man himself.

Even the dead world is indiscriminately swallowed by the void. This sense of powerlessness, which seems to be impossible to resist no matter what one does, made Li Qi feel a moment of despair.

Is there any point in continuing this practice?
Does it make sense to become the creator?
In the very end, they will all be swallowed up by 'collapse' and submerged in that unknown, boundless void.

Everything will perish...

There was no way to escape, and nowhere to run away.

Thinking of this, Li Qi suddenly felt a little disheartened, and the joy of breaking through to the seventh level vanished.

At that moment, he suddenly felt like going for a walk.

……

"Young Master, you've emerged from seclusion, uh..."

When he saw Li Qi come out of the secluded room, At wanted to greet him, but when he saw Li Qi's appearance, he froze on the spot.

At this moment, At is also at the seventh level, but the rules he comprehended are related to protection, and the object of his protection is Li Qi. Therefore, even though they are at the same level, they couldn't help but be stunned when faced with Li Qi's sudden improvement in 'appearance'.

Seeing this, Li Qi casually created a mask and put it on his face before saying to At:
"At, I'd like to go for a walk." "Ah...oh! I'll arrange it for you right away..."

"No, I said I want to go for a walk by myself."

Li Qi stopped At, who was about to arrange for guards, and said softly.

At first instinctively wanted to stop him, but Li Qi, who knew him very well, said before he could speak:

"Don't worry about me. I have a magic weapon left by Zhao Changge. I can handle even a ninth-level opponent. Besides, I'm just going out for a stroll. I won't cause any trouble. Don't worry."

With the power within him and having reached the seventh rank, Li Qi now possesses the initial ability to protect himself. Under the influence of this power, even if an eighth-rank opponent comes, Li Qi dares to put up a fight.

Brina, the owner of the [Coordinates] mech, is the most qualified to speak on this point.

He didn't need to worry about his safety, and he wasn't going on this trip to cause trouble; he just wanted to see the world, nothing more.

In retrospect, having reincarnated so many times, Li Qi has always strived to improve himself, but he has never truly looked at the world he lives in.

Oh, except for the martial arts world.

That was probably one of the few times Li Qi traveled the world with a leisurely mindset.

Now Li Qi plans to travel the world again.

Li Qi wanted to see the Myriad Star Realm, the Azure Profound Realm, and other original realms. He didn't want to have any regrets when death truly came to him.

Art couldn't stop Richie, but he could choose to go with Richie.

Although Li Qi said he was alone, he didn't stop Yate from following him.

This poor boy's entire purpose in life was to protect Li Qi. If Li Qi continued to reject him, it would be tantamount to rejecting the meaning of his existence.

Having decided to set off, the two quickly left the Thousand Star Immortal Sect without disturbing anyone.

Traveling light made the journey much faster.

Before long, the two left the territory ruled by the Thousand Star Immortal Sect and arrived in another area.

This is the location of the only immortal dynasty in the human realm of the Cangxuan Realm.

The Great Cang Dynasty.

Once inside the Great Cang Dynasty's territory, the two gradually slowed down and eventually walked into the city closest to the border, just like the other passersby.

Although the Great Cang Dynasty is called a celestial dynasty, the living conditions of the common people are not much different from those in ancient Eastern times, except that there are some more things that make life more convenient.

For example, refrigerators and lighters that require spiritual energy to activate, or carriages that are powered by spiritual energy.

These things broadened Li Qi's horizons. Although the Cangxuan Realm had not developed a technological civilization, it had developed many things that were similar to technology under the influence of spiritual energy.

However, many of these things require spiritual energy to operate, so ordinary people probably can't use them; only those who cultivate immortality can.

"This place looks very prosperous."

Li Qi led Ate through the city, admiring the scenery of the Great Cang Dynasty.

In fact, the scenery here is not much different from those planets in the interstellar world that still maintain their ancient appearance. However, perhaps because Li Qi comprehended the Dao of this world, he found everything in this world much more pleasing to the eye.

Just thinking that such a prosperous scene might eventually be swallowed up and collapsed by the void, Li Qi couldn't help but sigh again.

He knew he shouldn't be so discouraged.

But he had no choice.

Having faced the collapse head-on and received the memories of a tenth-tier powerhouse before his death, Li Qi had developed some fear of that void in another form.

He wasn't sure if he would be able to reach the tenth level in the future, and even if he could, he probably wouldn't be able to withstand the collapse.

In that case, everything will become meaningless.

What's even more despairing is that, given his current lifespan, he will witness everything collapsing into the void, and he cannot escape it.

Li Qi's mindset also changed as a result. In the words of the Cangxuan Realm, his Dao heart was shattered and the collapse problem had become Li Qi's inner demon. If he did not resolve this inner demon, he was afraid he would not be able to break through to the eighth level.

"Ugh……"

With another soft sigh, Li Qi suddenly felt somewhat disheartened.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave the city to see other places, a scene on the street suddenly caught his attention.

A woman with long, flowing blue hair, wearing a red gauze dress, stood barefoot in front of a vendor's stall.

Across from her, the vendor, holding a glittering spirit marrow in his hand, said with a bitter face:
"Miss...I...I really don't have any change! Don't you...have anything else?"

"...This is the cheapest thing I carry with me."

The fairy spoke softly, then looked down at the ornament in her hand, an exquisitely crafted tiger ornament.

However, because it's a bit small, it looks more like a cat.

The woman stared at the ornament for a long time, then, as if making a sudden decision, she put it away and said directly to the vendor:
"Never mind, no need to look anymore, I've given you everything."

She actually didn't want that priceless spiritual marrow anymore!
