The matter Li Qi wanted to inquire about was naturally the establishment of branches he had instructed his first spirit puppet to prepare decades ago.
Soon, the first spirit puppet transmitted the information.
The establishment of the branches went very smoothly.
With the first spirit puppet, a Tribulation Stage cultivator, and the assistance of Silver Stream,
even though some of the surrounding Void Black Markets also had Tribulation Stage cultivators,
it did not cause too much impact on the establishment of Penguin Medicine Pavilion.
By now, Penguin Medicine Pavilion had basically established a branch in all the surrounding Void Black Markets.
As for the supervisors of those branches, they were easy to find. Silver Stream's domain, Silver Stream Domain, had thoroughly integrated a large region.
It was quite good to be able to select some cultivators with good strength to be supervisors at the branches.
Whether it was a Plane Lord or a Dao Integration Stage expert from some good small world, there were many who were willing.
And the benefits the first spirit puppet provided to them as supervisors were not low.
Whether it was the annual spirit stone remuneration or the discounts they received when purchasing pills, they were unimaginable.
Even many cultivators with sufficient strength were vying to become supervisors at the branches.
This was much easier than earning money on their own during peacetime when there were not so many small worlds to harvest. Moreover, after becoming a supervisor, they were in charge of all matters of Penguin Medicine Pavilion's branches in a Void Black Market, and the strong individuals and connections they made were unimaginable compared to before.
But it was a pity that there were only a few dozen surrounding Void Black Markets, and the supervisor positions were highly competitive.
In the end, only the best few dozen were selected by the first spirit puppet, and the rest could only sigh in regret and return.
At the same time, due to the opening of the surrounding Penguin Medicine Pavilion branches,
compared to the income of a single Void Black Market, with the branches, Penguin Medicine Pavilion's income became terrifying to an unimaginable degree.
After all, each Void Black Market was surrounded by countless small worlds.
Those who had the ability in those plane worlds and wanted to purchase resources needed to come to the Void Black Market. How could the profit not be huge?
When Li Qi roughly looked at the income situation shown to him by the first spirit puppet, he was even surprised and regretted not opening branches in other Void Black Markets earlier.
"In a short period, even if I don't personally bring the Oblivion Space out to forage, the profits brought to me by these Void Black Markets will be enough to greatly enhance the strength of my Oblivion Space."
Li Qi murmured to himself after cutting off communication with the first spirit puppet.
And in the following period, as resources were no longer a problem,
the quantity of various heavenly materials and earthly treasures that Li Qi asked the first spirit puppet to purchase for him increased even more.
At the same time,
because Li Qi had not opened the Oblivion Space in the Earth Void Realm for these decades,
the spirit energy in the Earth Void Realm, which had become somewhat sparse, had once again returned to its original dense state.
With a slight thought,
the Oblivion Space, which had not been opened for decades, was opened once more.
Li Qi's divine sense delved into the Oblivion Space.
At this moment, the Oblivion Space was many times more powerful than its initial small and fragile appearance.
Although it could not be compared to the Oblivion Space in Xu Qingfeng's memory,
compared to the Oblivion Space used by the white bone that Xu Qingfeng transformed into earlier,
although it was still not as powerful as theirs, the two Oblivion Spaces did resemble each other somewhat.
If Li Qi's previous Oblivion Space could only be effective against low-level cultivators,
the current Oblivion Space could probably be used by Li Qi in actual combat.
However, this did not mean that the strength of the current Oblivion Space satisfied Li Qi.
After all, Li Qi himself was a cultivator who could fight across realms.
The current Oblivion Gate's effect could at most be effective against cultivators below the fourth level of Tribulation Stage.
For an ordinary second-level Tribulation Stage cultivator, this might be extremely formidable.
After all, this was a divine ability that could fight across realms against a fourth-level Tribulation Stage cultivator.
But the fourth-level Tribulation Stage cultivators were too vulnerable in front of Li Qi.
He could defeat one with a single punch, and Li Qi had to hold back for fear of using too much force.
"Then let's continue to devour,"
Li Qi's thoughts moved, and the Oblivion Space, which had been summoned and was motionless behind him, revealed its terrifying fangs once more at this moment.
An incredibly terrifying suction emerged from the deep, quiet, and dark Oblivion Space.
And this terrifying suction was now at least dozens of times more powerful than before.
The vast spirit energy in the Heavenly Dao Space of the Earth Void Realm was madly sucked into it, and then drawn in from other parts of the Earth Void Realm to replenish it.
The Heavenly Dao Will in the sky at this moment seemed to sense a crisis.
(,,#ﾟДﾟ)
So... so scary!
The Earth Void Heavenly Dao could clearly feel that if it were sucked into this Oblivion Space at this moment, it would only face the fate of being crushed to death.
"Baby is scared! *whimpers*"
As if sensing the fear of the Heavenly Dao Will,
Li Qi raised his head and found that the origins of the Earth Void Heavenly Dao were indeed being sucked from the sky by this terrifying suction and were about to be drawn into the Oblivion Space.
"Don't panic!"
With a gentle tap of his hand, the suction of the Oblivion Space on the Earth Void Heavenly Dao immediately dissipated.
In an instant, the little bit of Heavenly Dao origin that had been pulled out retracted rapidly towards the dome, trembling. It even felt less appealing to absorb Dao Fall fragments, like a little foot sticking out from under the covers on a cold winter day.
Decades passed again in the blink of an eye.
Over these decades, Penguin Medicine Pavilion's branches in the surrounding Void Black Markets had completely stabilized. Penguin Medicine Pavilion had now become a powerful merchant guild with its influence radiating to dozens of Void Black Markets.
As for the former name of Cangyan Medicine Pavilion, it had long been rarely mentioned under the cleansing of time.
Now, at least in these dozens of surrounding Void Black Markets,
when it came to pills, everyone's first thought was Penguin Medicine Pavilion.
Whether it was ordinary pills, astronomically priced pills, or even customized pills required by Tribulation Stage experts,
basically, anything related to pills could be found at Penguin Medicine Pavilion.
And because the forces behind Penguin Medicine Pavilion were not weak, no trouble-making incidents occurred during this period.
As for Li Qi, he had been continuously improving his cultivation during these decades.
Under normal circumstances, it would have taken an extremely long time for Li Qi to break through in the Tribulation Stage.
However, the effect of the Oblivion Space was unimaginably powerful.
The appearance of the Oblivion Space allowed Li Qi's energy refinement speed to reach a terrifying level.
In just over fifty years, the spirit energy in the Earth Void Realm was directly absorbed to its limit, and further absorption would harm its origin.
But the pure energy fed back to Li Qi by the Oblivion Space during these twenty years
had forcefully raised Li Qi's cultivation to the peak of the second level of Tribulation Stage.
