Li Qing flew east with Liu Ke’er. His divine sense constantly scanned the ground below, searching for the tribe that Bai Ze spoke of. Along the way, he encountered a few more rare exotic beasts. All of them were easily dealt with by Li Qing and the corpses of the exotic beasts were stored in Yin-yang Chaos Bottle.

Of course, if his divine sense sensed that there was an extremely terrifying aura in front of him, and it was even possible that it was a demon god level existence, Li Qing would take a detour.

In this Middle Thousand Worlds, it was obvious that demon gods could be born, and the number of demon gods should not be small. After all, it was an ancient era. All sorts of tyrannical creatures emerged in large numbers, and the endless land was ruled by Demon Clan.

According to Bai Ze, the location of the tribe was five thousand miles to the east. With the speed of a Void Realm expert, they could reach it very quickly.

A few days later, a plain appeared in front of him, no longer a boundless mountain forest.

On the plains, a city appeared in front of Li Qing.

It could be seen that the area of this city was very large, but it was far from magnificent. It looked very simple and crude. Most of the buildings were made of huge stones. Clearly, the technology of building the city was very backward.

Li Qing knew that the place he was looking for was the city in front of him.

Ordinary human forces would definitely not be able to build such a large city. They would definitely have a very strong backer. Otherwise, they would not be able to resist the attacks of demonic beasts at all.

Li Qing arrived at the city and found that this place was very lively. Moreover, the level of clothing here had also improved. It was no longer made from beast fur coats or demonic beast scales. Instead, it was made from more exquisite clothing.

The social structure is clearly hierarchical, with the rich and the poor evolving towards a more mature social system.

Li Qing and Liu Ke’er walked among them. Even though their clothes were still somewhat gorgeous, they weren’t as conspicuous as in the Bai Ze Tribe.

The language here was somewhat different. Li Qing spent a little time and quickly learned the language here.

He casually pulled a person and asked, “Hello, we are from other places. I heard that there is a 9-star warrior here. Is this rumor true?”

That person looked at Li Qing for a while and was shocked to see that Li Qing and Liu Ke’er were dressed differently from ordinary people. They were handsome and beautiful, and their skin was fair.

“Where did you come from? Why are you dressed and looked so strange?” The man asked curiously.

“We came from a very distant place. It’s not convenient to elaborate on the specific situation. Rumor has it that there is a 9-star warrior here, so I came here in admiration. Do you dare to ask if this rumor is true?” Li Qing asked.

“That’s right, the lord of our city indeed has the strength of a nine-star warrior!” The man said proudly.

“May I know where the City Lord’s Mansion is located?” Li Qing asked.

“It’s right in the center of the city. Why, do you want to challenge the City Lord?” The man asked.

Li Qing asked, “Could it be that many people have come to challenge him?”

“Of course. Our City Lord’s reputation is far away. There are countless people who have come to challenge him or become apprentices. I’m afraid it won’t be your turn anyway.” That person swept a glance at Li Qing with a look of disdain in his eyes. “With your small body, I’m afraid I won’t be able to defeat you, let alone the City Lord.”

Li Qing smiled faintly and did not argue with the other party. He said, “Thank you for the information you provided. This is the reward for you.”

He took out a spirit stone and handed it to the other party.

The man took it and took a look. He couldn’t help but curl his lips, “What kind of stupid rock is this? What do I need this for?”

“Uh” Li Qing’s expression stiffened. He recalled that the world had not yet developed the usage of spirit stones, so it was naturally not worth much.

Perhaps treasures like gold and silver were even more useful.

Li Qing could only take back the spirit stones and give him a piece of gold, saying, “Do you want this?”

“What a big piece of gold! Of course I’ll take it!” The man’s face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly held the gold in his hand. He was extremely happy.

“Alright, as expected, gold is more useful.” Li Qing couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh. Then, he asked, “I wonder if there is a place near you that produces such stones?”

Li Qing pointed at the spirit stone in his hand and asked.

“Just this damn rock. There are many things nearby that no one wants. You just need to look around to find them.” That person felt strange and didn’t understand the value of this kind of stone.

“Then thank you!” Li Qing’s face revealed a trace of joy.

After saying goodbye to that person, Liu Ke’er revealed an excited expression, “This is really great. There is no one here who has discovered the use of spirit stones. Isn’t that just taking advantage of us for nothing?”

“This Middle Thousand World is undeveloped. There should be a lot of spirit stone veins, and their wealth is astonishing.” Li Qing said, “Of course, no matter how many spirit stones there are, it’s just a string of numbers. It’s not very useful for people of our level of cultivation. However, it has a different meaning for the Liu Clan. They need spirit stones to develop their power.”

Li Qing grabbed Liu Ke’er’s hand and entered the city. Soon, he arrived at the Central City Lord’s Mansion.

The city lord’s mansion was very magnificent. Compared to many buildings in the Great Thousand Worlds, it was no less magnificent. It had a sense of primitive simplicity and beauty.

There was a long line in front of the door. Basically, they were here to pay their respects to the nine-star warriors or to challenge them.

Seeing so many people, Li Qing couldn’t help but frown. He didn’t have that much time to wait.

“Looks like we can only use an unconventional method to enter.” Li Qing could only come to the side and quietly sneak in with Liu Ke’er.

This mansion did not have any array to protect it. To Void Realm experts, their defensive power was useless. If they wanted to enter, they could easily sneak into the interior, as if they had entered an uninhabited realm.

Li Qing used his divine sense to sweep through it, and very quickly, he sensed an extremely terrifying aura rising not far away.

Qi and blood surged into the sky like a bloody red sun, extremely terrifying.

“As expected of a nine-star warrior. I have never encountered such dense blood vitality in the Great Thousand Worlds!” Li Qing’s expression was solemn.

To be able to achieve such a high level of accomplishment under such conditions, this person was extraordinarily formidable, and he had to be treated with caution.

If it had to be said, this Nine Star Warrior was the hero of the era, the most resplendent one.

…

“Hmm? Someone sneaked in?” The nine-star warrior inside suddenly opened his eyes.

“Who is so bold as to dare to barge into my territory! To be able to break through the layers of defense, this person’s strength shouldn’t be any weaker.” He immediately stood up and opened the door. His gaze was like a dragon as two divine lights shone on Li Qing’s location.

Li Qing did not deliberately conceal his aura. Originally, he wanted to lure the nine-star warrior out, so he came in front of him generously.

The Nine Star Warrior and Li Qing exchanged a glance. Instantly, their hearts trembled and their expressions became serious. “This young man is strange. He looks ordinary on the surface, but there is an unfathomable power inside!”

“Who are you? Why did you sneak into my mansion?” He asked with a dignified expression.

“I am Li Qing. I came from a very distant place. I heard that there is a 9-star warrior here, so I came to see him.” Li Qing said.

“So that’s how it is! The distinguished guests descended and should be received. Come in.” The Nine Star Warrior said generously.

Li Qing was slightly surprised. He had expected the reaction of this nine-star warrior, but he never expected that the other party would be so polite and invite him inside.

“Thank you so much!” Li Qing and Liu Ke’er were not afraid of each other and entered.

Both sides took their seats. Not long after, someone came up with wine and barbecue meat, filling the table.

“Please enjoy it, both of you!”

“May I know how to address the City Lord?” Li Qing asked.

“You can call me Cang Qing!”

Li Qing said, “I haven’t even seen an eight-star warrior in this land. How did Brother Cang reach the rank of nine-star warrior?”

“Haha, Brother Li Qing asked so straightforwardly that I don’t even know how to answer. Unfortunately, this is my biggest secret, so I’m afraid it’s not convenient to tell you.” Cang Qing laughed loudly.

“I’m just very curious. With a strength of more than two million jin, this is definitely a frightening achievement.”

“I was able to reach this stage because of countless opportunities. The most important thing is that I have created a body refining technique called the Hundred Refinements Flood Furnace Technique after so many years of continuous training.”

“Hundred Refinements Flood Furnace Art?”

“That’s right, this world is rich in resources and wild beasts are rampant. The only way we can think of to strengthen it is to continuously eat the flesh and blood of demonic beasts and absorb the power from them.”

“The Hundred Refinements Flood Furnace Art I created did not leave this path. It only increased the effect by a hundred times, so that it could reach the level of a nine-star warrior.”

Li Qing asked, “I wonder how I can increase the effect a hundredfold?”

“This is my ultimate secret to becoming a 9-star warrior. Do you think I will tell you?” Cang Qing smiled.

“If you are willing to tell me, I will pay a price that will satisfy you!” Li Qing said.

“Oh? What price?”

Li Qing pondered for a moment before reaching out his hand, revealing a golden light.

Under Cang Qing’s shocked gaze, dense golden scales suddenly appeared on Li Qing’s arm, and it suddenly transformed into an incomparably large golden hand.

“How is that possible! How did you do it?” Cang Qing was shocked.

“If you are willing to teach me the Hundred Refinements Flood Furnace Technique, then I will exchange this technique with you. How about it?” Li Qing asked.

“Sure! But I want to see the actual effects of this transformation technique. Therefore, you have to agree to a request before you can reach a deal!”

“What requirements?” Li Qing asked.

“Use the Transformation Technique you have cultivated to fight me! Let me see if it’s really that powerful!” Cang Qing said in a deep voice.

“Alright, no problem!” Li Qing agreed without hesitation.

…

Moments later, Li Qing and Cang Qing appeared in a plain a hundred miles away from the city, facing each other from afar, their auras rising.

This place was deserted and inhabited, vast and boundless. It was suitable for people of their level to be used as a battlefield.

“Come on, I haven’t met an opponent like you for a long time. I can finally have a good fight! I hope you won’t disappoint me.” Cang Qing’s bronze skin was sparkling and translucent, and there were actually strands of dragon qi wrapped around it.
