Chapter 898: Fishing (Requesting Monthly Votes)

Jiang Jiang Miaoyin stepped forward with a smile and spoke.

"Lin Qi, thank you so much this time."

"Without you, my brother and I might have perished."

Lin Qi waved his hand and chuckled.

"With our relationship, there's no need for thanks."

"By the way, we should leave this place quickly."

Jiang Tao nodded. "Whatever you say, Lin Qi Ge."

"Shuuu! Shuuu!!"

With that, Lin Qi surged upward as a purple-gold streak of light.

Jiang Tao, Jiang Jiang Miaoyin, and the Star-Swallowing Beast Watching Xiaotian followed behind him.

They ascended a thousand meters into the sky and all entered Lin Qi's Star-Swallowing spacecraft.

Inside the cabin, seated on intelligent chairs, Xiao Chan poured hot tea for the three.

Lin Qi asked curiously:

"Taozi, Amiao, why did you come to Continent Six?"

"Before I mastered seventh-rank techniques, I only dared collect Abyss Tokens in peripheral regions like Continent 98."

"You two have quite the nerve."

Jiang Tao scratched his head awkwardly, sipped his tea, and explained:

"This time, it was my fault—I got overconfident."

"I thought Amiao and I could sneak into Continent Six, gather some resources, and sell them to the Sacred Sects after leaving the Abyss Realm for rewards."

"We also wanted to experience the core region firsthand."

"But we hadn't even been inside long before we encountered Abyss Clan members—we planned to kill them and leave."

"Before we finished them off, three Universe Level Five beings arrived."

"You know what happened after that."

Lin Qi shook his head. "You two really have bad luck."

"But from now on, you should leave Continent Six."

"As the Abyss Relic opens, the top geniuses of every race are converging here."

"Many of them can kill Universe Level Five beings."

"Staying any longer puts you in danger."

Jiang Tao nodded seriously.

"Amiao and I already thought the same."

"Since we evolved into Elder Elder Xing Yu geniuses, we've spent massive resources to make up for our earlier deficiencies."

"Now that we've broken through to Star Evolution Realm, we came to the Abyss Realm to gather more resources and strengthen ourselves."

"We'll rest up, then leave the Abyss Realm."

"We'll come back once we're stronger."

Lin Qi nodded—this was the best course of action.

He had already sensed their realms.

Because their evolution into Elder Elder Xing Yu geniuses was too recent, and they still needed to replenish their foundation,

reaching Universe Level Four was already fast.

Their realms were only Star Evolution Realm, First Stage.

Their strength was decent, especially with the two siblings fighting together.

In the peripheral regions, as long as they were careful, they'd be fine.

If they hadn't come to Continent Six, they wouldn't have been in such danger.

Jiang Tao asked curiously:

"Lin Qi Ge, with your current strength, are you planning to enter the Abyss Relic?"

Lin Qi nodded. "Yes. There's only thirty years left until the Abyss Relic opens."

"I'm gathering enough Abyss Tokens."

Jiang Tao exclaimed excitedly:

"Lin Qi Ge, who can stand against you now?"

"You're a Elder Elder Xing Yu genius who mastered seventh-rank techniques—you're among the absolute top of all geniuses."

"Once you enter the Abyss Relic, you'll be the strongest. I'm certain you'll defeat other races' geniuses and claim the most rewards."

Lin Qi smiled. "I still have a long way to go."

"Some top geniuses have reached profound depths in spatial laws."

"Don't underestimate other races' geniuses."

The three then enjoyed food, wine, and hot tea together.

Rarely gathered like this, they shared updates on their lives.

They also discussed other geniuses.

For instance, Sun Sheng, Li Tianxing, and the War God had all joined the Nine Supreme Factions.

Everyone else had become Elder Elder Xing Yu geniuses—only the three of them remained Star System geniuses.

Star System geniuses, no matter how strong, are still just Star System geniuses.

They all wanted to become Elder Elder Xing Yu geniuses.

Now they were still searching various realms for opportunities to evolve their talents.

Lin Qi also hoped their talents would evolve into Elder Elder Xing Yu status.

Without Elder Elder Xing Yu talent, breaking through to Universe Level Five is impossibly hard.

After hours of conversation, Jiang Tao and Jiang Jiang Miaoyin prepared to return to their own spacecraft for rest.

Jiang Jiang Miaoyin asked worriedly:

"Lin Qi, we're only a thousand meters up."

"Isn't that too dangerous?"

"We could easily be spotted by Abyss Clan Universe Level Five beings or others."

Lin Qi smiled.

"Let them spot us—we'll act as bait to lure other races' geniuses here."

"Don't worry—I'll detect them the moment they get close."

"There won't be much danger."

"And the spoils will include your share."

Jiang Tao and Jiang Jiang Miaoyin nodded. "Perfect."

"We'll follow your lead."

Lin Qi nodded—Jiang Tao and Jiang Jiang Miaoyin still had real strength.

Taking them along to gather resources was no problem.

After they left, Lin Qi sat in his cabin and inventoried his gains.

First were the heavenly treasures—he nodded in satisfaction upon seeing them.

These treasures were numerous; selling them would yield many cultivation points.

Since they hadn't been destroyed by spatial forces, they remained intact.

Killing more Abyss Clan Universe Level Five beings would bring even greater profits.

But these were secondary.

The most important were the Abyss Tokens—he immediately sensed hundreds within his perception.

"Three Universe Level Five beings carried 689 Abyss Tokens total—not a small number."

"But their ability to collect Abyss Tokens was truly poor."

Lin Qi shook his head, though he'd heard Abyss Clan members could enter the Abyss Relic

if they gathered 10,000 Abyss Tokens.

But the Abyss Clan lacked strength.

All Universe Level Six beings had been wiped out; only countless Universe Level Five ones remained.

Over long centuries, they were continuously killed off, their numbers dwindling.

"So killing Abyss Clan members is only worthwhile for the heavenly treasures."

"To gather enough Abyss Tokens, I still need to kill other races' geniuses."

"They're the ones carrying the most tokens."

Lin Qi had made up his mind.

He had parked his spacecraft midair to fish.

Searching for tokens himself was too slow.

But if other races' geniuses came, they'd become his spoils.

He only dared do this after his power surged.

Before, he'd been cautious, hunting other races' geniuses stealthily.

……

The Primordial World, Tianhai Residence

Lin Qi sat on the training ground and took out the secret technique, Volume One of The Book of Void, once again.

He began to flip through it.

With thirty years remaining, he still had time to devote to cultivation.

He would continue to comprehend the space principle, further enhancing his combat power.

Although he had already grasped the space principle, he had yet to unlock the first subtle mystery of the Art of Concealment.

One by one, space symbols began to form.

Golden energy flowed like a brush, tracing patterns in the air, radiating the power of the space principle.

He soon sank into deep contemplation.

【You observe Volume One of The Book of Void, contemplate its mysteries, and your understanding of the space principle increases by 1.】

【Your understanding of the space principle increases by 1.】

【Your understanding of the space principle increases by 1.】

……

In the blink of an eye, three years passed.

"Shiiii! Shiiii! Shiiii!!"

That day, over the plain, a slender figure appeared—tall, over two meters, with exquisitely carved features.

Her skin was blue, her figure alluring, exuding a seductive aura.

A deep blue mark adorned her forehead.

Around her emerged towering warriors clad in blue insect-like armor.

Each stood over three meters tall, their arms replaced by massive blades, their faces grotesque, equipped with unique mouthparts.

Their eyes burned red, brimming with endless killing intent.
