The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle

Su Qi stood atop the mountain summit, watching as numerous cultivators roared and slew the collapsing Heavenly Mountain Disciples, cleansing the Demons.

He did not go down or lift a finger to help.

The phantom of Luo Shenfu was lightly touching the patterns beside him:

"I have hidden this world once more, they have stabilized now, we should avoid exposing this world as much as possible, so that no one will know of the Immortal Path's inheritance."

Su Qi watched Luo Shenfu's actions: "Is such caution really necessary?"

"Daozi!"

Luo Shenfu spoke with utmost seriousness, "I must remind you once again, you can't imagine the kind of enemies and beings you will face. Once the news of the Immortal Path's inheritance is exposed, you will face... the most terrifying pursuit."

"So, no matter what, maintaining your ordinary status, laying low, that is what's most important!"

Su Qi muttered to himself: "I understand the principle. Don't worry, my greatest Quality is being low-key, modest, and steady."

Luo Shenfu nodded, half-believing: "Now, it's time to leave, heading for the Land of Extreme Evil."

Naturally, Luo Shenfu was aware of the Land of Extreme Evil, he even understood much of the history and external forces that had developed in the Present World, information.

After all, he had encountered countless people who had come to participate in the trials of the Immortal Path and had learned much information from them.

He was very familiar with the Land of Extreme Evil.

"Speaking of which, if I'm supposed to keep a low profile, why are you still letting me go to the Land of Extreme Evil?"

"Because... according to the trend of the Daoist Scripture you previously outlined, your Immortal Path seems to be an Offensive Technique," Luo Shenfu explained:

"Where there is a path, there must be contention. Avoiding a fight out of fear would blunt one's edge!"

"Another point."

Luo Shenfu said solemnly: "To grow the Immortal Path, the resources needed are massive. Though the Land of Extreme Evil is perilous, but..."

His fingers seemed to be calculating divinations.

"The divination shows... there's a tremendous opportunity there, and many descendants of fortune are converging. It seems to be a node of destiny, very important."

The so-called other descendants of fortune naturally referred to the descendants of powerful clans, Divine Sons, Young Masters, and such.

"So Daozi, this place is crucial."

He saw Su Qi's contemplative expression, and he had not spoken, seemingly hesitating.

He gently shook his head:

"Don't worry or be afraid. Although the Land of Extreme Evil is dangerous, as a Daoist Guardian, I will protect you and guide you to opportunities. An heir of the Immortal Path... must adapt."

Su Qi murmured: "I'm quite worried, actually. But since you say so, it shouldn't be a big problem."

"Also, can I ask how strong you were in the past, Brother Luo?"

Luo Shenfu in his white jade Daoist robe, though appearing middle-aged, carried an aura that arose naturally. He softly said,

"At my peak, I was a Quasi-Immortal, although now, due to the great battles of the past and the erosion of time, I have only the Spiritual Power of the Nascent Soul Stage, but that is enough to provide Sanctuary to a Daozi."

Su Qi moved his lips.

Brother, you're too confident.

But.

It seemed a bit too hard to say... it really wasn't enough.

Quasi-Immortal.

That is, a Demigod.

And Nascent Soul Stage, that's only Sequence 6.

Neither the distant nor the immediate enemies seemed like enough.

But Su Qi did not speak out.

Afraid his brother might run off.

"Let's go, leave this place, now I will do my utmost to cultivate you from an Ordinary person into a true bearer of the Immortal Path, the Supreme Daoist!"

"Alright!"

Su Qi gave a thumbs up.

Luo Shenfu returned to the ring to rest, he and Old Huang shared a similar deteriorated soul, and after using the Array to arrange the world a bit, eliminating most traces.

Now he needed to go into the ring and recover his strength.

Su Qi also boarded the Flying Ship that was hovering in the outer world, the transportation device that the Immortal Master had used to arrive.

It too was engraved with the Star Raider pattern.

"Engines accelerate."

"Coordinates... adjust them."

Su Qi operated the Flying Ship, he now wanted to return to the Superpower World first, to see... how Bai Yilin and others, Bai Qixing, were doing now.

Of course, what was more important was...

To see how Xiao Meng was doing, the next plans and actions, that Unlimited Energy was very important.

After all.

The meeting with the Venerable arranged by the Angel Envoy was about to begin, the Dark Zone was going to burst.

He must increase his odds and aces as much as possible before that.

After confirming the coordinates.

The Flying Ship sailed into Nihility, although it looked like a Flying Ship on the outside, in reality, it was all sorts of ceremony arrangements and driving forces.

During the voyage of the Flying Ship.

Su Qi also brewed a cup of tea, relaxed and began to review the new treasures he had acquired.

First was the breakthrough to Seventh Rank.

The upper limit of Spiritual Energy naturally surged significantly, his previous small pond now upgraded and expanded.

Second, Spiritual Energy could now recover autonomously. For other Seventh Rank people, the rate was about 1—10 points per minute.

For Su Qi, it was over 100 points per minute, ten times that of others. This was related to both the sequence's Strength and quantity.

Third.

Spiritual Energy could now be projected externally, forming defenses, controlling projections for attacks, and enabling flight, among other things.

But at the same time, Spiritual Energy would manifest differently, as once projected, it could be seen by the naked eye.

"Besides that."

"It's the treasures obtained in this world."

Su Qi whistled softly, the Dark Star Jade Pendant hanging on his chest turned into a... dark red Flying Shuttle in the blink of an eye.

As the Immortal Master said, it indeed was a treasure.
