Just like back then, just like in the memories of Yue Qianfeng. Li Guanyi gently closed his eyes, as if he merged with that heroic brother Yue from his memories, and he seemed to see the young version of himself, his mind at peace. He turned around and twisted his waist. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel-fire.net Amidst the countless raindrops instantly vaporizing into mist like clouds, intense flames suddenly exploded between Li Guanyi’s fingers, roaring flames occupying the small hill outside the city of Aqini. It also broke through his memories. Soon after, it transformed into a roaring crimson Divine Dragon before the Nine-colored Divine Deer. The summit of the barren mountain, along with those gnarled dead trees and scattered boulders In an instant, turned to dust! The Nine-colored Divine Deer watched from mid-air, the rain continued to fall in the area, but the small barren mountain where Li Guanyi stood had clear skies, as the Red Dragon Dharma Form gradually dissipated, Li Guanyi looked at his hand and clenched his fist. "Before reaching the Grandmaster realm, special absolute skills are required to mobilize the power of the Dharma Form." "After reaching the Grandmaster realm, every move has great power." Li Guanyi felt a small sense of satisfaction in his heart. This punch on the barren mountain was almost indistinguishable from the one brother Yue Qianfeng unleashed in Jiangzhou City back then, at that time Li Guanyi was just a young pharmacist of thirteen or fourteen, killing in the rain at night, on edge, yet now he has been in the Martial World for several years. This punch, that punch. You of yesterday, me of today. It has a beginning and an end. Relaxing his fist, the Red Dragon Dharma Form completely dissipated, Li Guanyi now when making an ordinary move could suppress his Sixth Layer Heaven self with the characteristics of a Grandmaster, every move followed by his Dharma Form, though consuming significantly, it could completely display the terrifying destructive power of a Grandmaster. "Between a Grandmaster and one below, there truly is a chasm of difference." "A world of difference." Li Guanyi thought of over a year ago, at the Gongsun Family, when he faced the Sky-climbing Sect Master Ximen Hengrong who had his mind confused. At that time, Ximen Hengrong was mentally confused by the methods of the Longevity Guest, unable to use Grandmaster skills, while Li Guanyi, relying on his Immortal Body, exchanged injury for injury to barely hold him. That should be the only time before when he had a life-and-death encounter with a Grandmaster. Even in Zhenbei City, they actually did not go for the kill. Li Guanyi breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew the might of the Grandmaster, appearing like an ordinary person, even the fierce courage he previously exhibited dissipated somewhat, with two pieces of gold tucked in his bosom, a slight smile on his lips, truly appearing as a peaceful traveling merchant from the Central Plains. The Nine-colored Divine Deer stood quite afar. The Nine-colored Divine Deer sighed, it did not feel anger, only saying: "I simply do not wish to see the Red Dragon, seeing it causes some stomach ache, hence I stayed a bit afar, for him, the dragon nature is unruly and wanton." "I really can’t think of words to evaluate him without losing the courtesy of auspiciousness, so I won’t say it." That was already said. He slightly cupped his hands, saying: "Thank you, senior, for your help this time, otherwise, it would still take a year or two for me to reach this realm." The Nine-colored Divine Deer said: "You helped me first, I am merely reciprocating." "Moreover, what I have done is merely auxiliary." "Without your experiences of pacifying Jiangnan and the Western Regions, without your past various dedications, what could I achieve?" "You helped yourself." Quite marvelously, Li Guanyi saw affection in the eyes of the Divine Deer, seeing a kind and beautiful smile on its face. The Nine-colored Divine Deer stepped a few times in the void, the Nine-Colored Divine Light flowed, gradually changing from a small hill-like size to just like an ordinary young deer, extremely agile, it touched Li Guanyi with its antlers, saying: "However, I vaguely perceive that you haven’t managed to fully connect the Qi veins of this place with the southeast direction, although you have embarked on this path, it’s only a beginning." Li Guanyi nodded, calmly smiled, and said: "Not being fully connected is normal." "Jiangnan there, over two thousand miles, millions of households, prosperous industries, the land of fish and rice in the Central Plains, with surging human Qi Fortune, while Aqini city has only a population of tens of thousands, even the territory appearing on the Nine Provinces Tripod hasn’t been fully controlled, with unsettled hearts and an unpeaceful world, both sides were inherently unmatched." Li Guanyi casually sat down, looking at that city, and said: "If the situation of this Aqini city alone could rival Jiangnan, then wouldn’t all our long years of struggle be laughable?" "My friend Yan Daiqing would surely have another stomach ache." "This time being able to momentarily connect allowed me to step out this step." "Much thanks to the hundreds of years of Qi Fortune accumulated by the Demon Sect." "And the assistance of you, senior." Li Guanyi paused, vaguely sensed a hint of displeased Divine Will from afar. Li Guanyi’s face remained unchanged, saying: "And the great—" "The guidance of the great senior." Only then did that wisp of Divine Will from afar slightly calm down. There was a fluctuation of ’I suppose you are sensible’, Li Guanyi roughly understood why Grandmasters can quickly discover each other, he smiled, feeling a bright world and knowing his own cultivation path. This transformation is a first step. He could only walk on the path he chose, the path of all under heaven, to feel free in spirit and to advance step by step, breaking through barriers, with that chance to reach the legendary realm.
