"It's good that I soul-searched Qin Tianyi back then, otherwise finding the Qin Yang Chamber of Commerce might have been a bit troublesome," Li Qi muttered to himself while recovering.
If he hadn't soul-searched Qin Tianyi and learned his memories, Li Qi, despite never having visited the prosperous region, would have known much more about it. He would have had a clear understanding of the specific direction of the Qin Yang Chamber of Commerce. If he had casually killed Qin Tianyi without soul-searching, he would have wasted a lot of time personally searching for the Qin Yang Chamber of Commerce in a completely unfamiliar prosperous region.
"Hoo! I've almost recovered. I can continue on my way."
Li Qi let out a deep breath. The small worlds within a radius of several li around him had already been thoroughly turned into a vacuum, devoid of any spiritual energy. Fortunately, there were no other cultivators traveling in the void at this time. If these cultivators had seen a long path devoid of any spiritual energy traces, they might have mistaken it for the appearance of some peculiar secret realm.
The Great Annihilation Space was slowly retracted and disappeared. Li Qi's speed, which had been unhurried, once again accelerated to his peak. For the next half month, Li Qi maintained his peak speed. At the same time, as he got closer to the prosperous region, even though he was still in the void, Li Qi could clearly feel a subtle difference. Compared to the thin spiritual energy of the void in the remote small regions of the Di Xu Realm, the spiritual energy in the void near the prosperous region, though still thin, was considerably more abundant than in his small corner of the world.
"We're almost there." Li Qi narrowed his eyes slightly. At the same time, his gaze fell on the area not far ahead. With a surge of his divine sense, Li Qi could feel more and more specks of light in all directions. These specks of light represented numerous small planes and worlds approaching the prosperous region. Furthermore, based on Li Qi's current perception, the intensity of these small worlds represented by the specks of light was not weak. Although not exaggerated, most of them had Heavenly Dao stages of Void Return or Dao Integration. However, Li Qi could also faintly sense two or three Heavenly Dao stages of Tribulation Transcension. Although Li Qi could feel that these few scattered Heavenly Dao stages of Tribulation Transcension were only at the strength of the first or second heaven and not particularly powerful, it was enough to surprise Li Qi. After all, Li Qi had only just approached the prosperous region. It was uncertain whether this area was even considered part of the prosperous region, yet Li Qi could already see several Heavenly Dao wills that had reached the Tribulation Transcension stage. This was countless times stronger than his small region, where the entire large integrated area only had a few Heavenly Dao wills of Tribulation Transcension.
"As expected of the prosperous region, my small corner of the world truly cannot compare." Thinking of this, Li Qi let out a long sigh. The gap between small places and big places was indeed worlds apart, no matter where you were. In fact, Li Qi had understood this point since he soul-searched Qin Tianyi's memories. Although the Qin Yang Chamber of Commerce, where Qin Tianyi was from, was not a weak force, without a cultivator at the Mahayana stage to anchor it, it was not considered a prominent power. Yet, such a force, with just a small portion of its combat strength dispatched, could easily overwhelm all the experts of their local Chamber of Commerce Alliance. If Li Qi hadn't intervened, the group of experts led by Qin Tianyi could have easily occupied dozens of their void black markets and established branches of the Qin Yang shops.
After a few more days of travel, Li Qi saw even more densely packed specks of light appearing before his eyes. Countless powerful small worlds appeared within Li Qi's vision. If he had only seen a sparse few Heavenly Dao wills of Tribulation Transcension before, then as Li Qi ventured deeper into the prosperous region, he witnessed even more powerful small worlds along the way. He even encountered several Heavenly Dao wills with strengths at the seventh or eighth heaven of Tribulation Transcension. These powerful Heavenly Dao wills were even stronger than the Heavenly Dao will of the Di Xu Realm, which he had painstakingly nurtured and fed for many years.
The information about the Qin Yang Chamber of Commerce, obtained from soul-searching Qin Tianyi's mind, resurfaced in Li Qi's thoughts. The entire prosperous region was unimaginably vast. Although the Qin Yang Chamber of Commerce's dispatched experts could easily crush everyone in their remote small region, in reality, the area covered by the Qin Yang Chamber of Commerce's business operations in the prosperous region didn't even reach one-thousandth of the entire prosperous region. Or, according to Qin Tianyi's memories, even forces with cultivators at the Mahayana stage could be considered extremely powerful if their influence covered one percent or even two percent of the prosperous region. As for those who could truly spread their influence across the entire prosperous region, besides the three mysterious immortals from the upper realm, even cultivators at the eighth or ninth heaven of Mahayana, or even at the peak of Mahayana, would find it difficult. Even if they could truly spread their influence throughout the entire prosperous region, the effort and time required would be unimaginably long for any normal person. In general, those forces that could truly extend their influence throughout the entire prosperous region, or even half of it, would be considered top-tier powers even in the upper realm.
At this moment, Li Qi, having finished recalling Qin Tianyi's memories, narrowed his eyes slightly. He slowly uttered a name. "Qing Rao Domain!"
