Devouring the Stars: The Master of Metaphysics

Lichuan City.

In a courtyard of the Best Inn, there is a pavilion more than fifty meters high. Inside the pavilion is a stone table more than ten meters high and covering an area of ​​dozens of square meters.

"So, you can't afford to offend him, so you can offend me?"

Li Qi's own table, chairs, and wine glasses were placed on the large stone table. He sat in front of the table with the wine glass in his hand.

The squatting innkeeper, still nearly ten meters tall, waited cautiously.

"Your Highness has misunderstood!" Hearing this, the innkeeper shook his head quickly, "That's not what we meant."

After Li Qi drank the wine, he asked, "What do you mean?"

"Your Highness, you don't know something." The innkeeper quickly explained: "The person who wants to see you this time is the champion of the last Brave Trial. Your Highness, if you win this Brave Trial, you will inevitably have to fight with That one deals with.”

"Oh...really?" Li Qi looked in front of him with a half-smile.

"That's it." The innkeeper nodded quickly.

Li Qi poured a glass of wine and asked: "Tell me, after I became the champion of this Brave Trial, how could I deal with the previous champion?"

"You are His Royal Highness the Five Giants. You may not know much about the once-in-a-hundred-year brave trial of our planet Titan."

The innkeeper said: "The reason why the Trial of the Brave is so highly regarded by our Titan Tribe is that, in addition to the glory of being the champion in the Trial of the Brave, there is also the fact that the champion can obtain the treasure of our Titan Tribe, the Fruit of the Power of the Titan!"

"The Fruit of the Power of the Giant God is the most precious treasure of our Giant God Clan." The innkeeper's eyes shone, "Those who take the Holy Fruit will have the opportunity to obtain the gift of the Ancestral God. If they are not favored by the Ancestral God, they will gain nothing."

Having said this, the innkeeper said disdainfully: "There are also some people who have been spurned by the ancestor gods and will die in endless pain after taking the holy fruit."

"Yeah." Li Qi nodded slightly, but then he changed the subject and asked, "Does this have anything to do with the last champion who wanted to see me?"

"Of course it does matter, but you don't know, His Highness." The innkeeper quickly explained: "For the champion of the Brave Trial, the previous champion will be responsible for delivering the Holy Fruit, and the current champion can refuse to accept the Holy Fruit, and this will Considered to challenge the previous champion.”

"Challenge the previous champion?" Li Qi played with the wine glass in his hand and asked, "There should be a reward for this."

"There are rewards. If the current champion challenges the previous champion and wins, in addition to getting the holy fruit he should have, he can also enter the Giant God's Pond to practice for one year." The innkeeper replied: "There is also a punishment for losing, that is The Holy Fruit will no longer be distributed to the current champion.”

"Pond of the Titans?" Li Qi became interested, "It's interesting. If you have a chance, go in and take a look."

Hearing this, the innkeeper was shocked and said: "Your Highness, you are not planning to challenge the previous champion, are you?"

"I have this idea, but even if I do, it's not now."

Li Qi drank a glass of wine and said, "At least wait until I win the championship of this brave trial."

"I just want to say something unpleasant. I hope your highness can allow it." The innkeeper said with a hand.

"Say it."

"I know that you are His Highness from the five giants."

The inn boy said proudly: "But you don't know that the winner of the last championship is said to have defeated more than one His Highness in the main match of the Brave Trial. He is a rare and unique genius of our Titan Clan."

"Now that person is already a Domain Lord level expert, and his strength is countless times stronger. Your Highness will probably lose more than he wins if he challenges him."

"Defeated more than one His Highness?" Li Qi became even more interested.

The geniuses at the core level among the five giants of mankind can be called His Royal Highness in the outside world, and the universe-level geniuses who participate in the training mission are the ones who stand out from the countless star-level or cosmic-level geniuses in the human territory.

The World of the Titans is a dangerous training mission with a 70% mortality rate. A genius who dares to take on a dangerous mission must have a level of understanding of the laws of the Tongtian Bridge at the fourth level.

The genius who can defeat the fourth or even fifth level of Tongtianqiao's law perception, then the last champion's law perception may have reached the level of Tongtianqiao's sixth level a hundred years ago.

Seeing the interested smile on Li Qi's face, the innkeeper was very puzzled, "Why is it that the more I persuade him, the more interested he becomes?"

"Your Highness." The innkeeper asked softly, "Have you seen the champion yet?"

"It's okay to meet him." Li Qi nodded lightly, "Go and invite him in."

"Yes, little one, go and invite that person in." The innkeeper smiled happily, got up and ran towards the gate of the other courtyard.

Li Qi looked at the back of the innkeeper and didn't show any displeasure.

He understood that although he was a genius trained by the five giants of the human race, his status was extremely noble.

But in the eyes of many Titans, how can a His Highness who will only stay for a hundred years at most compare to a locally born champion of the Brave Trial.

…

moment.

The innkeeper came in, followed by a fifth-level Territory Lord-level man who was about thirty meters tall and wearing a gray-white battle suit.

Li Qi looked up at the visitor and said secretly: "This is the champion of the last brave trial. He was promoted to the fifth level of Domain Lord in less than a hundred years. It seems that he has a lot of training resources to support him."

There is abundant energy in the universe in the Secret Realm of the Universe, but accumulating energy is still a project that takes a lot of time. For example, many Domain Lords in the human realm need to spend tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years to accumulate energy to the peak of the ninth level.

So, in the energy accumulation in the human territory, except for the five giants who can directly use nutrient solution to strengthen core members, other forces cultivate geniuses mostly by giving them cultivation resources such as wood bud crystals. You can't afford to use nutrient solution to strengthen them without money!

When Li Qi looked at the previous champion, he was also observing him, "This prince from the five giants, although his size is less than one-tenth of mine like other princes, his understanding of the laws is probably better than mine decades ago. I couldn't do it decades ago just to injure a realm master."

It should be noted that the basic power gap between the peak of the ninth level of the universe and the peak of the ninth level of the domain master is thousands of times, and the gap between the peak of the domain master and the first level of the realm master is twenty to thirty times.

This means that the basic power gap between the peak of the ninth level of the universe and the first level of the realm master is tens of thousands of times, so it is a great thing that the former can injure the latter!

"Xi Ke." The previous champion introduced himself first, then bowed slightly and said, "Meet Your Highness."

"Yes." Li Qi nodded and asked, "Xi Ke, as the champion of the previous Brave Trial, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"I heard that Your Highness injured the Lord of Xigang in the sixth medal assessment." Xi Ke explained, "I was curious for a moment, so I came to visit Your Highness and wanted to ask Your Highness to have a sparring match with me."

"Sparring?" Li Qi shook his head slightly, "Forget it now, there will be opportunities in the future."

"Rejected." Xi Ke shook his head secretly. Being rejected was expected, but then his face changed, "In the future... there will be a chance to 'spar'!"

"I am sorry to bother you. Goodbye!" Xi Ke, who understood the meaning, had a gloomy face and turned to walk out of the courtyard.

Seeing this scene, the innkeeper standing by wailed inwardly, "Your Highness! How can you say in front of others that I will challenge you at the championship ceremony in the future!"

"Go down."

After Xi Ke left, Li Qi turned to the innkeeper and said, "If someone wants to see me again in the future, you know what to do, right?"

"I know." The innkeeper nodded quickly, and then sighed and left.

He didn't give Xi Ke a good look. This was the decision Li Qi made after being disturbed. He had clearly asked the innkeepers to refuse other people's visits, especially those who wanted to challenge him.

Afterwards, Li Qi continued to drink in the pavilion until he finished the whole pot of wine, and then returned to the room to practice in the virtual universe.     …

A few days later.

Virtual universe, Yuxiangshan primitive area.

Because of two consecutive victories in the Secret Realm Battle and the Primordial Secret Realm Internal Reincarnation Battle, Li Qi's manor house number has changed to No. 111, which represents the first place in the universe level of the Primordial Secret Realm.

In the closed martial arts training ground, the time for the once-in-a-decade guidance has arrived, and the smooth-skinned and hairless Lingtu Venerable has come to the manor.

After more than half an hour of instruction, Venerable Lingtu looked at Li Qi and smiled, "Junior brother, you did a good job in defeating Ke Di this time."

Li Qi shook his head gently, "Seventh Senior Brother, Ke Di did not use his full strength in this secret realm battle. There is no point in defeating him like this."

"It is a good thing to have such awareness." Venerable Lingtu nodded and said, "The reason why Ke Di did not use his full strength in this secret realm battle is because he had a special opportunity. There is an immortal king of the giant axe fighting field who has filed a lawsuit against us, the company's senior executives."

"The immortal king of the giant axe fighting field? Filing a lawsuit?"

Li Qi listened and remembered it in his heart, but did not ask what the reason was, because Venerable Lingtu did not say much, obviously involving some secrets.

"I have seen the video of you breaking through the tenth level of Tongtian Bridge before. Your understanding of the law is still a little far from the tenth level of Tongtian Bridge."

Venerable Lingtu said: "You will consolidate for a while later and practice more "True Explanation of the Divine Tree". With your progress, you will most likely be able to break through the tenth level of Tongtian Bridge after consolidation and absorption after the next instruction."

"When you break through the tenth level of Tongtian Bridge, you will become the teacher's direct disciple." Venerable Lingtu smiled, "I am looking forward to this day."

Li Qi said firmly: "I will definitely not let my senior brother down."

Venerable Lingtu smiled and nodded, "Well, I will come back in ten years."

After that, Venerable Lingtu turned into a white light and disappeared in this closed martial arts training ground.

"Ten years later, I will break through the tenth level of Tongtian Bridge."

Li Qi stood in the center of the martial arts training ground, and the figure carrying a sword and stepping into the flames appeared in his mind, "Brother, you will be resurrected soon."

...

Ten years have passed.

During these ten years, Li Qi spent most of his time practicing in the virtual universe, and then he would relax and drink some of the extremely spicy wine on the Giant God Star.

Because he practiced the top secret method "True Explanation of the Divine Tree" to analyze the essence of the laws of space, he had dabbled in all 108 kinds of the essence of the laws of space, but only a few of them had truly understood the essence.

As usual, Venerable Lingtu came to the manor on time and gave instructions for more than half an hour.

After the instructions, Venerable Lingtu talked to Li Qi for a few words as usual and left. He knew that Li Qi needed time to consolidate and absorb the newly solved doubts.

…

A few days later.

Still in the closed martial arts training ground, a series of dark claw shadows appeared. These claw shadows contained the power of the origin of space, which firmly blocked this area.

Swish!

A dark claw shadow that was more fierce and fierce, as if it was going to tear the space apart, and the power of the law was also more powerful, appeared, and directly tore the claw shadows that had not disappeared around it!

"The third move of "Five-Intention Destroying Claws", destroy three!"

Li Qi half-crouched, his eyes showing excitement, "Now that the three have been eliminated, it's time to go to the Tongtian Bridge."

After that, he turned into a white light and disappeared in the martial arts training ground.

...

Tongtian Bridge plane.

In the center of the beautiful island square, the guardian Bafen in a white robe was guarding here as usual, watching the image of the Tongtian Bridge on the light screen in front of him.

Swish!

A white light flashed, and Li Qi appeared in the center of the square, "Well, the guardian has changed his clothes."

"It's good to change clothes occasionally."

The guardian Bafen closed the light curtain in front of him and smiled: "Li Qi, you should be able to pass the tenth level when you come to the Tongtian Bridge this time."

Li Qi also smiled and said: "After more than ten years of cultivation, I am finally sure to pass it."

"Then I congratulate you in advance for passing the tenth level of the Tongtian Bridge."

The guardian Bafen smiled, then nodded and said: "There is no one in the Shenshu Tongtian Bridge now, you can go in directly."

"Okay." Li Qi nodded, turned into a stream of light and flew towards the Shenshu Tongtian Bridge.

"Well...I was a little short last time, this time Li Qi should be able to pass the tenth level of the Tongtian Bridge."

The guardian Bafen muttered to himself, and sent the news that Li Qi had passed the tenth level of the Tongtian Bridge to the powerful people who were paying attention, as well as the geniuses of the four secret realms, including the realm master genius of the original secret realm.

As a genius who appeared once in millions of eras, Li Qi naturally attracted the attention of many people, including many members of the original secret realm master level.

Except for a few masters whose law perceptions were comparable to those of the kings, other masters of the original secret realm did not dare to say that they would definitely stay in the original secret realm, so they paid special attention to their competitors, including potential competitors.

…

Yuxiangshan original area, Manor No. 113.

In the closed and vast martial arts training ground, Ke Di was practicing the secret attack method alone. Suddenly, he stopped and summoned the light curtain to open the newly received important email.

"Li Qi is going to break through the tenth level of Tongtian Bridge again."

Ke Di whispered to himself, "I failed to break through the tenth level of Tongtian Bridge last time. This time, more than ten years later, I am going to break through again. I think I am sure I can break through."

"The inheritance of the Ice God of the Zushen Sect is mysterious and powerful."

He looked down at the sword in his hand and shook his head gently, saying, "It took me decades to accept the first stage of inheritance. Now I am starting the second stage of inheritance. Unless I am not conscious enough to accept it, it will take hundreds of years to complete the second stage."

"This means that it will be difficult for me to concentrate my consciousness to comprehend the laws for hundreds of years."

He shook his head gently, "With Li Qi's speed of comprehending the laws, he may surpass my level of comprehending the laws in hundreds of years."

"It doesn't matter. The inheritance of the Ice God is extremely powerful. After accepting the inheritance, I am more qualified to break through the original Tongtian Bridge. The temporary lead is nothing."

Ke Di's eyes condensed slightly, "My goal is to break through three original Tongtian Mountains in a row!"
