Chapter 321 Another Mutation

Compared to the initial complete lack of knowledge about Li Qi, they now at least knew that Li Qi seemed to have some connection to Yinchuan, even if it was merely a superior-subordinate relationship. But having information was better than none. It might still be some time before they could uncover Li Qi's true identity, but with more time and Li Qi's recent appearance, the few present had taken note. With more attention in the future, they would eventually be able to discover Li Qi's true face. The important matters had been discussed, and the topic of Li Qi was thus concluded. The several Tribulation Stage cultivators then resumed collecting the Daoyuan fragments from their respective occupied areas, leaving none behind. Time flew by, and three days passed. During these three days, the meteor eruption period in the warped space seemed unending, with continuous ejections. If this were a normal person erupting like this, they would have long since perished. However, the powerful Tribulation Stage cultivators who occupied their own territories were overjoyed by this situation. After all, with meteors constantly drifting out of the warped space without any lulls, they harvested even more Daoyuan fragments. In just these three days, the Daoyuan fragments they each collected had reached terrifying amounts. Even though their respective small worlds had Heavenly Dao with the strength of the Tribulation Stage, such a vast quantity of Daoyuan fragments could likely bring about a significant strength increase for their small world's Heavenly Dao. To put it another way, if the quantity of Daoyuan fragments were truly sufficient, they could be treated as hard currency. For the Plane Lords backed by powerful Heavenly Dao, these were even more precious than spirit stones. Li Qi had also reaped considerable rewards during these few days. After the initial period when he fought with Zhou Jin and his talent was on cooldown, he had been a little more cautious. Now that Li Qi's talent was off cooldown, he felt more at ease searching for Daoyuan fragments, no longer worrying about the other few individuals suddenly attacking him again. After all, without his four hundredfold amplified talents, if those individuals had seized the opportunity to attack Li Qi during that cooldown period, in a good scenario, Li Qi would have had to flee, and in a worse scenario, he might have had to activate his reset talent and return to the designated node in the Earthly Void Realm. Silently calculating the Daoyuan fragments he had obtained in his spatial ring, even Li Qi felt a surge of excitement. "Seventeen thousand pieces!" The feeling of relentlessly harvesting Daoyuan fragments for these three days was truly wonderful. Coupled with the few hundred pieces he had collected initially. Li Qi also glanced at the Daoyuan fragments left behind by the three Tribulation Stage fifth-level cultivators he had previously killed. Those three had left him an inheritance of over two thousand pieces of Daoyuan fragments. Adding up all the Daoyuan fragments he possessed, Li Qi had nearly twenty thousand pieces! "I wonder how much this pair of twenty thousand Daoyuan fragments can improve that fat pig at home." Li Qi speculated. Although these twenty thousand Daoyuan fragments wouldn't bring about a massive improvement, it wouldn't be difficult to help his Earthly Void Realm's Heavenly Dao Will advance from Tribulation Stage first-level to second or even third-level. After all, while it wasn't as fast as directly devouring a Tribulation Stage Heavenly Dao, the sheer quantity was significant. With this thought, Li Qi's gaze involuntarily shifted towards the other seven directions, where the other seven Tribulation Stage cultivators were also continuously searching for Daoyuan fragments. "If I could get all the Daoyuan fragments in those guys' hands, then perhaps, the Earthly Void Heavenly Dao could truly receive a significant boost." After all, Li Qi knew that before the warped space mutated, a significant portion of the Daoyuan fragments in the gathering place of the three Tribulation Stage cultivators outside the warped space were in the hands of these cultivators with the highest cultivation. Other Tribulation Stage cultivators could only get a small portion or even more scattered fragments. Now, with the mutation of the warped space, shrinking to only half the size of a small world, these cultivators with the highest cultivation had gone all out, leaving nothing for others. It was only Li Qi who, relying on his hard strength, had secured a place. After the mutation, if Li Qi's luck wasn't too bad, the number of Daoyuan fragments he obtained might not be significantly different from those strongest Tribulation Stage cultivators. However, before the mutation, these strongest Tribulation Stage cultivators had obtained at least several thousand more Daoyuan fragments than Li Qi. But unfortunately, this thought was dispelled by Li Qi shortly after it arose. How could it be easy to obtain all the Daoyuan fragments in these guys' hands? Even if he went all out and used all his trump cards, he could certainly crush these guys with overwhelming combat power. But crushing aside, there were seven of them, and if they scattered to escape, Li Qi wasn't confident he could get all the Daoyuan fragments from all seven of them. "Forget it, since this warped space is still continuously producing Daoyuan fragments, I won't think about it for now. Let's see how much I can harvest in the end." Li Qi thought to himself. He then settled his mind and continued to search for as many Daoyuan fragments as possible. Suddenly, as if sensing something, Li Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked towards the warped space in front of him, which was now only half the size of a small world. It wasn't just Li Qi; the other seven individuals also searching for Daoyuan fragments seemed to sense something. They saw that within the warped space, the spatial tearing fluctuations, which had previously made it difficult even for Tribulation Stage second and third-level cultivators to withstand, suddenly intensified. This sudden change startled all eight of them, as the unknown often brought fear. Including Li Qi, all eight paused their search for Daoyuan fragments and retreated a distance, wary of any unimaginable mutation in the warped space. But in the next moment, the spatial tearing fluctuations within the increasingly intense warped space suddenly stabilized. Furthermore, the spatial tearing fluctuations within the warped space began to gradually weaken. In a short time, the intensity of spatial tearing had regressed to a level where even peak Dao Integration cultivators could withstand it for a period. And then. Suddenly, Li Qi's eyes narrowed. At the same time, from the side, one of the Tribulation Stage eighth-level cultivators exclaimed in astonishment, "The chaos of this warped space is fading!"
