A patch of silent void was pitch black.
Apart from the occasional sparse small worlds that flickered into existence like pinpricks of light in the distance.
Within the entire void, there was only the thin spiritual energy, and the dense asteroid clusters that would occasionally appear.
But unfortunately, these asteroid clusters were merely ordinary ones, possessing no distinguishing features.
At most.
Some of the meteors might contain extremely rare low-level ores.
After all, precious treasures produced by abnormal secret realms like fragmented meteorites.
Although they were often discovered within the vast, immeasurable distances of the void.
But one must remember how vast the void truly was.
It was possible that a cultivator might never encounter the good fortune of a secret realm producing special treasures in the void in their entire lifetime.
And within this silent, dark, empty, seemingly lifeless void.
A figure was hurtling forward at an unimaginable speed.
Perhaps in a single breath, they could traverse the distance of one or even more small worlds.
Along the way, there were also some cultivators traveling in the void.
Some alone, others in groups of three to five.
But without exception.
Upon seeing the figure with incredible speed and radiating a terrifying aura, they would instinctively retreat in alarm, trying to put as much distance as possible between themselves and the figure.
Because merely from the residual aura casually emanating from the figure as they passed, it was clear.
That the figure's realm and strength were beyond what these lesser cultivators could contend with.
"What a terrifying aura. What kind of power does that senior possess? That speed, it's too fast."
A cultivator at the sixth heaven of the Dao Integration stage looked at the aura that had long since disappeared from his perception and said to several cultivators of similar strength with a look of dread.
In reality, the others beside this cultivator were equally astonished, shaking their heads with a hint of daze.
"I don't know. I've seen many seniors at the second or third heaven of the Tribulation Transcendence stage, but their speed was vastly inferior to that figure!"
At the same time, a sense of relief emerged in their eyes.
"It's fortunate that the senior was some distance away from us. Otherwise, if we had blocked their path while they were traveling, we might have been killed by their speed without even knowing how we died."
This statement was indeed true. With a strength comparable to that terrifying speed.
If these cultivators, who were only at the fifth or sixth heaven of the Dao Integration stage, had truly stood in Li Qi's path, they would likely have been killed. Their souls might not have even registered the pain before their physical bodies and souls completely dissipated.
It would be akin to an ordinary person running and crushing an ant falling from a tree, without the slightest sensation.
Upon realizing this, the sense of relief in their hearts deepened.
Traveling in the void was indeed quite dangerous.
Not only were there spatial storms that could suddenly arise and engulf them without warning, as well as other various dangers.
Even encountering other powerful cultivators could lead to their complete annihilation in an unclear manner due to the mere residual shockwaves of their travel.
As for the shock and awe of these cultivators also traveling in the void.
Li Qi, who was currently speeding towards the prosperous region and the Qin Yang Merchant Guild, paid them no mind.
However, if Li Qi had known what these people were thinking, he would probably have chuckled inwardly at their overthinking.
Whether other cultivators would directly kill them while traveling, he did not know.
But even while he was traveling, he kept his eyes and ears open.
How could he not be aware of the movements of those low-level cultivators? It was simply that his speed was too fast. Even if someone were to block his path.
Li Qi could simply change his direction by a few small worlds. By the time they reacted, they wouldn't even notice that Li Qi had shifted his course.
After flying through the void for a long time.
At a certain moment, Li Qi's speed finally began to gradually decrease.
Although the small area where Li Qi was located was not overly remote, it was still some distance from the prosperous region.
Even though he was currently a Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator, prolonged full-speed travel had left him slightly fatigued.
While taking out spirit stones from his spatial ring to recover.
At the same time, Li Qi summoned the Dead Silence Door beside him.
A terrifying suction force surged from within the Dead Silence Door.
With Li Qi at the center, all the spiritual energy in the void in all directions was instantly devoured into the Dead Silence Space.
In just a moment, the spiritual energy within at least several small worlds around Li Qi was completely depleted.
Although the spiritual energy in the void was thin, instantly draining it from such a large area allowed Li Qi to somewhat replenish the energy consumed by the long journey.
While recovering his condition, Li Qi also calculated the distance.
"Now, I should be getting close to the prosperous region where the headquarters of the Qin Yang Merchant Guild is located. It should take about ten more days to arrive."
It had been about a month since he left the Earth Void Realm.
Adding the estimated half a month of travel, it seemed like the journey from the Earth Void Realm to the prosperous region would only take about a month and a half.
However, this was achieved by Li Qi, a Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator with incredibly terrifying speed, traveling day and night without rest.
If ordinary Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivators, or even those at lower realms, were to travel this distance.
The distance to travel back and forth would likely increase exponentially.
After all, they did not possess Li Qi's terrifying speed, vast resources, nor the powerful recovery of the Dead Silence Space, which allowed for sustained travel at peak condition.
In fact, Li Qi would occasionally activate a hundredfold speed boost every day.
Just ten minutes of hundredfold speed travel could be comparable to more than half a day of travel in his normal state.
This was something that ordinary cultivators, and even cultivators at the same realm as Li Qi, could not achieve.
Because even a Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivator of the same realm as Li Qi would likely be exhausted and utterly fatigued after such a long period of full-speed travel.
