Looking at the Void Black Market, which had been rebuilt, Li Qi nodded with satisfaction.
After all, this Void Black Market was considered his headquarters, though he was no longer active in it.
Once this current matter was concluded, other merchant associations would rebuild the Void Black Market for business purposes.
However, for Li Qi, with his current strength, it was merely a trivial matter, and there was no need to wait for other merchant associations to recreate it.
Although the cultivators in the Void Black Market had all fled, it was only temporary.
"After some time, once the matters concerning the Qin Yang Merchant Association are completely resolved, it is estimated that things will quickly return to their previous state," Li Qi murmured to himself.
Looking at the empty Void Black Market, Li Qi had no intention of lingering further, as the matter of dealing with the experts from the Qin Yang Merchant Association was now concluded.
Immediately, Li Qi intended to leave.
But at that moment, before he could move, he suddenly thought of something.
"Right, my two Natal Spirit Puppets have not been regenerated yet."
Li Qi had now stepped into the third level of Tribulation Transcension.
Under normal circumstances, Li Qi probably wouldn't be in such a hurry to have these two Natal Spirit Puppets, who were doing business in the Void Black Market, return to improve their strength immediately.
But he had no choice; he happened to be at the Void Black Market this time, making everything much more convenient.
With a slight thought, he summoned them.
Soon, Natal Spirit Puppets One and Two, who had just finished building the Void Black Market, rapidly approached Li Qi.
Once they were within a certain range of Li Qi.
Li Qi did not hide anything, as there were no other cultivators around besides himself, so there was no need for concealment.
With a thought.
The two Natal Spirit Puppets directly disappeared from their original spots.
In the next moment, they reappeared before Li Qi, their strength now the same as Li Qi's, having reached the third level of Tribulation Transcension.
Although this realm was still within the scope of the low-level Tribulation Transcension stage.
It would likely be considered among the top-tier combatants of the Inspection Elder level within other local merchant associations.
After all, although the cultivation realm of these two Natal Spirit Puppets was the third level of Tribulation Transcension, their true combat power could likely rival that of the fourth level of Tribulation Transcension.
If they were to use all their trump cards.
It was possible they could temporarily match experts at the sixth or even seventh level of Tribulation Transcension.
With such strength, in their small region, it could be said that Li Qi himself would not have to worry about them, unless there was another incident like the Qin Yang Merchant Shop, where an external force caused trouble.
Having resolved the matters concerning the two Natal Spirit Puppets.
Li Qi's eyes narrowed slightly once more.
According to Qin Tianyi's memories.
His grandfather, Qin Zhang, the president of the Qin Yang Merchant Association, was also nearing the time to break through to the Mahayana stage.
It was precisely because of this that Qin Tianyi was so anxious to have the experts who were willing to invest in him take action, attempting to unify the Void Black Markets in their surrounding area.
"If he truly reaches the Mahayana stage, I will be the one in trouble. There's no time to delay, I should go personally and resolve this potential threat."
A cold glint flashed in Li Qi's eyes.
He was not afraid of the peak of Tribulation Transcension, but he would indeed be wary of the Mahayana stage.
Thinking of this, even Li Qi couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency.
"I will return to the Earthly Void Realm first to set up the new nodes, and then I will set off directly."
Li Qi thought to himself.
After all, he had now reached the third level of Tribulation Transcension.
And his previous reset nodes were still set at the second level of Tribulation Transcension.
Li Qi had already prepared to use the reset function for this upcoming outing.
If he did not return beforehand to reset the reset nodes, then upon resetting and reviving in the Earthly Void Realm, Li Qi would revert to the second level of Tribulation Transcension, which would be a rather troublesome matter.
After all, it wasn't every time that he could find so many powerful Tribulation Transcension cultivators to drain.
Most of the time, Li Qi had to cultivate diligently on his own.
With this thought, his figure flickered, and Li Qi had already disappeared from the Void Black Market.
With Li Qi's current strength, traveling at full speed, the Earthly Void Realm was only a short distance away.
Without spending too much time, Li Qi had already reached the Earthly Void Realm.
In the Heavenly Dao Space.
Sensing Li Qi's return, the Heavenly Dao Will of the Earthly Void Realm attempted to engage in a warm interaction with Li Qi.
However, Li Qi had no such inclination at the moment and did not pay it any heed.
The setup nodes for the reset talent were activated.
In Li Qi's pupils, the river of time that belonged to him once again emerged.
A peculiar sensation descended upon Li Qi's head.
Causing Li Qi to look once more at the river of time that belonged to him.
The surging water flowed, containing everything Li Qi had experienced.
Subconsciously, Li Qi shifted his gaze, intending to look beyond the end of his river of time once more.
He recalled that the last time he had just broken through to the Tribulation Transcension stage and activated the reset, he had attempted to look beyond the end of his river of time, only to see nothing but void. The longer he looked, the more fatigued his soul became.
"I wonder if I can see more now."
With this thought, Li Qi continued to gaze without daring to avert his eyes for even a moment.
But in the next moment.
A hint of disappointment flickered in Li Qi's eyes.
Because he discovered.
Even though his strength had slightly improved compared to before.
When he looked beyond the end of his river of time, he still saw nothing but void.
Not long after.
A similar feeling of spiritual fatigue arose in Li Qi's mind.
"My strength is still not enough to see what lies beyond my river of time?"
Li Qi murmured, but the regret in his tone had already largely vanished.
"My strength is still insufficient."
With this thought, Li Qi did not stubbornly try to waste any more time.
If he couldn't see it, he couldn't see it.
He would try again in the future when his strength advanced further.
With this thought, Li Qi withdrew his gaze.
With a slight movement of his mind.
A new coordinate was etched once more at the very end of his river of time.
The river of time before Li Qi's eyes slowly dissipated at this moment, until finally, it completely disappeared.
A faint light flashed in Li Qi's eyes.
Having set up the reset nodes, his final insurance was in place.
There was no time to waste, Li Qi did not want to procrastinate.
From Qin Tianyi's memories.
His grandfather, Qin Zhang, had gathered the resources for breaking through to the Mahayana stage some days ago, and it was possible he was already at the crucial moment of breakthrough.
Thus.
Li Qi's figure flickered slightly, and he had already vanished from the Earthly Void Realm.
Target, the prosperous region, the Qin Yang Merchant Association.
