My Bottle Cosmos

Chapter 726 671: Private Visit in Disguise to the Lower Realm

"Artifact refining, I've hit a bottleneck."

Li Qing sat atop the tree, feeling comfortable at heart.

The days have been rather pleasant.

Now, gazing at this vast Supreme Continent, he couldn't help but feel a surge of ambition: This is my empire.

It seemed senseless, yet the sense of achievement was something he couldn't experience during the time of being the mastermind.

Because back when he was the mastermind, most things were left to chance, just laying low behind the scenes, not managing the era at all.

Only now does he feel this sense of achievement in management.

"Bottleneck stuck, in the end, I still lack some talents, geniuses in the art of artifact refining."

Li Qing chuckled lightly.

Saying farewell to the angels in the trees, he descended alone.

Of course, he wouldn't be lazy; being a leader of the era means naturally recruiting talent under his command.

Now is the era of Dharma Artifacts, and he needs to find a brilliant talent in artifact refining to be of use, to develop cultivation techniques and provide inspiration.

Previously, there was indeed such a talent, Tang Xia.

Sadly, he died of old age; had he lived longer and been younger, by the time of this truly brilliant era of artifact refining, he might have supported him again!

At that time, he would have been the true cosmic prodigy, Xia opened the era of the Divine Communication Technique, and he opened the era of Dharma Artifacts, becoming the frontrunner, which would not have been impossible.

But he lived a plain life without any monumental achievements until his death.

One could only say he was born in the wrong time.

"In this cosmos, in the end, heroes are made by times!"

Li Qing shook his head.

"Your Majesty, would you require the company of the Guard Angels?" At this point, angels wielding divine artifacts on their backs respectfully asked.

"No need, as the current leader of the world, I rank first. Rejecting their company, Li Qing decided to wander covertly within the continent."

Upon the Ancient Tree.

Several talented Bright Celestial Gods continued their research, "His Majesty has encountered a bottleneck."

"It should be so."

Another god spoke, "Your Majesty's talent is formidable, having opened the method of reincarnation at three months old, was earth-shattering, yet over the years, although extremely strong, it seems to lack that sensation of brilliance."

The words were somewhat rebellious, yet they were what most people thought!

It didn't quite align with expectations.

Indeed, Li Qing himself couldn't quite surpass that genuine talent.

For a fellow strong at the 130 level of capability, some excelled at medicine refining, like Black Star. Others excelled at creation, like Atabia.

Li Qing's 130 capabilities didn't particularly excel in anything.

Essentially, he wasn't really a research genius and was forcefully pushed to grow faster, hence lacking a touch of brilliance.

Therefore, he needed to find a genuine talent in artifact refining to provide the inspiration that belongs to artifact refining geniuses.

At that moment.

A slight discord suddenly emerged within the space.

"Not good!" Gods of Light engrossed in their research suddenly opened their eyes, "The timeline has changed again."

"It's the contemporary descendants of Dark Fan and Bai Suo; these prehistoric remnants have once again traveled through time." A towering and mighty Six-winged Angel spoke coldly.

"Modifying the timeline without permission, and at the precise moment His Majesty descended to the realm!" Someone said solemnly, "Should we take action to protect His Majesty?"

Everyone fell silent.

Finally, someone spoke to negate, "His Majesty's combat power, those petty figures, no matter how many times they traverse time, at whichever period, they are definitely not opponents."

"Furthermore, after Empress Xuli's demise, similar fluctuations appeared, and back then, that person must have traversed secretly, neither was history altered, nor did they find an opportunity to attack His Majesty?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Even at the critical moment of Xu Li's demise, they couldn't change anything; now, in the peak era of His Majesty, the opponents are likely unable to find an opening.

If war were to break out, it would be His Majesty protecting these ministers.

What's more, His Majesty is blessed by Heaven, with the Ancient Tree's constant protection; who could take action? The Ancient Tree is bound to act.

The only being capable of countering the Abyssal Ancient Dragon of the Ancient Tree is in the Abyss; presently, there is no entity in the Upper Realm capable of threatening this force of the God of Light.

"We should continue our research."

"The capability to lead the Celestial Humans wasn't chosen by us; it's because his abilities are the strongest among us."

...

....

Yunrou Realm.

Ruled by a Divine King of the human race named Yunrou.

It's a sect that only accepts women, and most celestial prodigies who ascend from various Great Celestial Realms of the Lower Realm join this area.

Li Qing's arrival here wasn't due to anything else.

Simply because Umbrella Corporation's core headquarters is hidden here.

"Black Star favors women's clothing; these years, who knows how many peculiar hobbies have been accumulated."

Yunrou Divine King is indeed Black Star himself.

Wadon and others also dressed in women's clothes and began marketing various products.

Their reasoning for doing this was simple: not just to conceal identities but because it's easier to make money from women.

Men?

They just focus on arduous cultivation, buying only essential cultivation resources, which have too low a profit margin.

Li Qing, as the mortal form of Light Ancient God, walked through these streets, observing the women and various products targeting female customers.

He didn't rush, wandering around and experiencing local customs and practices for a few days.

Here, any roaming being is a stunning individual who has ascended from the Lower Realm, and their average quality is exceptionally high.

As for the divine beings' offspring?

How could that be?

Essentially, they are bacteria in the driver's seat, controlling the Giant Divine Body; their offspring are also bacteria, and wouldn't be giants.

Of course, offspring born in the Divine Realm of the Ancient Tree have advantages; upon breaking through to Ancient Gods, they can directly form a Divine Body without undergoing the Celestial Tribulation of the Lower Realm.

Li Qing wandered around and played enough finally starting his business.

He confidently entered a pavilion with the name "Artifact Pavilion," looking at the counter, and said:

"It's said that within the Divine Realm, the Artifact Pavilion is one of the best forces in artifact refining, and the Holy Lands of the Lower Realm also gather artifact refining geniuses from all corners, ascending nonstop?"

The shopkeeper of the Artifact Pavilion was a voluptuous and curvaceous beauty, glancing at the noble gentleman before her with a superb aura and extraordinary demeanor:

"Our organization is indeed one of the major forces in this land, with numerous artifact refining geniuses ascending from the Lower Realm, and not just artifact refining, we excel at medicine refining, talisman making, and formation depiction as well."

The beauty's heart pounded wildly.

For any ascended cultivator, who wouldn't know their organization?

Who would need to ask?

And such arrogant and ignorant, those who inquire about common knowledge were of only one type; those from the heavenly Ancient Tree, the Gods who don't partake in worldly matters.

Only those arrogant Celestial Humans descending secretly to visit had such a demeanor.

And the actions that followed further affirmed her thoughts.

Li Qing nodded, taking out a bag of Divine Stones, "I have a major business to discuss with the best artifact refiner here."

The beauty shopkeeper glanced at the bag, revealing a shocking expression.

The quantity of these Divine Stones was astonishing.

Since the Light Ancient God ascended, establishing the Light Church, and the Gods among the trees promulgated various decrees, having the ancient tree of Celestial Dao issue special currency, facilitating the entire continent's currency flow.

This currency is a special small Crystal Wall World, impossible for others to counterfeit.

This individual's wealth suggests they are far from just an ordinary member of the Celestial Human Race.
