While Lin Tianchang was preparing to go to the Penguin Medicine Pavilion to find his Natal Spiritual Puppet and meet the powerful figure behind the pavilion, Li Qi.
At this moment, Li Qi was completely unaware. After returning that day, he had been quietly digesting his previous gains.
After using the Stillness Space to obliterate Li Qiansheng, the vast spiritual energy and the essence of the Dao Rhyme from the Mahayana stage within Li Qiansheng had been continuously absorbed and mastered by Li Qi during this period.
Although Li Qi was still only at the peak of the Tribulation Crossing stage at this moment, he already had a considerable understanding of the Mahayana stage.
Consequently, Li Qi's realm, which should have been stagnant for a long time, had once again seen a subtle improvement under these circumstances.
After a while, Li Qi slowly opened his eyes.
Compared to before entering seclusion, Li Qi's realm at the peak of Tribulation Crossing had improved by a tiny bit.
Although this improvement was not large, it was enough to excite Li Qi.
After all, the previous leap across several minor realms had required Li Qi to properly refine his previous state.
However, because everything about Li Qiansheng was obliterated by the Stillness Space and fed back to Li Qi, Li Qi seemed to be able to cross this period of stagnation in a shorter amount of time.
"That Li Qiansheng was quite useful. With his help, I feel that my breakthrough to the Mahayana stage is not far off," Li Qi couldn't help but exclaim.
If it weren't for Li Qiansheng's sacrifice, he wouldn't know how much longer it would take him to cross the threshold of the Mahayana stage.
If the current Li Qiansheng could hear Li Qi's words, he would probably be so angry that he would spit blood.
He never expected to be restless even after death. The vast spiritual energy and blood he cultivated throughout his life, as well as the essence of the Dao Rhyme for the Mahayana stage, were all made into a wedding dress for Li Qi to absorb.
If Li Qiansheng were given another chance, he probably wouldn't want to trouble the Penguin Medicine Pavilion even if he were beaten to death.
But unfortunately, Li Qiansheng was now nothing more than dust.
"It seems that with the current lack of resources, I might be able to successfully break through to Mahayana within one or two hundred years."
Li Qi speculated, and then he wanted to continue cultivating and break through to the Mahayana stage in one go.
Thus, Li Qi prepared to break through to the Mahayana stage in one fell swoop.
After all, opportunities are not to be missed, and time waits for no one.
And just at this moment.
Li Qi's eyes moved slightly.
It seemed that he had received a message from his Natal Spiritual Puppet.
The next moment, Li Qi frowned slightly, and then a wisp of divine sense emerged, directly taking over the control of the third Natal Spiritual Puppet.
At this moment, Lin Tianchang had once again arrived at the Penguin Medicine Pavilion.
The third Natal Spiritual Puppet, controlled by Li Qi, looked at Lin Tianchang.
"I don't know, Daoist friend, what specific matter you have for waiting for me these past few days. With your strength, if you wanted to order pills or something, you wouldn't need to come to our Penguin Medicine Pavilion, right? Do you want to be like that Li Qiansheng before and want our Penguin Medicine Pavilion to surrender?"
Hearing Li Qi's words, Lin Tianchang smiled.
"Heh heh, manager, you jest. I, Lin Tianchang, would not stoop to doing what that Li Qiansheng did. I have come here today only to visit the Daoist friend behind your Penguin Medicine Pavilion. I wonder if you could introduce us?"
'See me?'
Hearing this, Li Qi, who was controlling the third Natal Spiritual Puppet at the moment, couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
But then Li Qi quickly understood.
The terrifying combat power he displayed when he killed Li Qiansheng that day must have made Lin Tianchang somewhat wary, so he wanted to see who this strongest person behind the Penguin Medicine Pavilion really was.
In this regard, Li Qi's expression remained unchanged, controlling the third Natal Spiritual Puppet.
"There's no need for a simple meeting. However, you can rest assured, Daoist friend. Our Penguin Medicine Pavilion is just a merchant guild that likes to do business with pills. We don't care about other matters. As long as others don't provoke us, we won't provoke trouble ourselves. Li Qiansheng is an example this time."
However, Lin Tianchang, who had traveled all this way just to see Li Qi, could not be content without seeing Li Qi.
Lin Tianchang shook his head slightly and revealed a smile to the third Natal Spiritual Puppet.
"Manager, there's no need to say more. That Li Qiansheng was simply seeking his own doom. We have been paying attention to the Penguin Medicine Pavilion for some time over the past hundred years. I trust the character of the people in the Penguin Medicine Pavilion; they have never actively provoked trouble. However, I still want to meet the Daoist friend behind the Penguin Medicine Pavilion. After all, when traveling outside, being able to make a friend is also a good thing."
"After all, if there are other troubles in the future, having one more friend can always make things more convenient."
After saying this, Lin Tianchang continued to show a faint smile, looking at the third Natal Spiritual Puppet.
Li Qi frowned slightly.
Looking at Lin Tianchang's demeanor, it seemed that he would not give up if he didn't see him.
However, what Li Qi wanted most now was to break through his realm. He didn't want to go out and meet Lin Tianchang midway.
But what Lin Tianchang said was indeed reasonable.
He had also considered the Qingrao Domain as his base. If he wasn't around sometimes, letting Lin Tianchang help look after it seemed like a good option.
Immediately, under Lin Tianchang's gaze, the third Natal Spiritual Puppet, which appeared to be deep in thought, finally nodded.
"Since Daoist friend truly wishes to meet our behind-the-scenes patron, my repeated refusals would seem rather unappreciative. However, the last time the patron went out for a battle, he had some good gains. He may not be able to see outsiders for a short period. If Daoist friend can be patient, why not go back first? When the patron comes out of seclusion, I will invite the patron to visit the Qingrao Small World."
Hearing this, Lin Tianchang's gaze deepened.
He looked at the third Natal Spiritual Puppet, unsure whether the manager in front of him was truly in seclusion or just trying to placate him.
But the next moment, Lin Tianchang no longer cared.
If the Penguin Medicine Pavilion really wanted to placate him, they would have just refused directly. There would be no need to string him along.
After all, he was at least the strongest person in the Qingrao Domain.
There was nothing they could do if they clearly refused him. However, such a perfunctory response that felt like a game was different.
He, the strongest in the Qingrao Domain, could not be easily toyed with. The person in front of him, who could become the manager of the Penguin Medicine Pavilion, should understand this.
"Since that is the case, I shall not disturb your business at the Medicine Pavilion any further. I will await the arrival of that Daoist friend in the Qingrao Small World."
After saying this, Lin Tianchang did not linger and left directly.
