Chapter 606 Where did you come from?
In this fantasy world based on the world of gamblers, there is only one way for Li Qi to improve his strength.
It's just gambling.
If you lose the bet, you will get nothing, but if you win, some of the soul power will float away from your opponent and fall on you.
The stronger the opponent he fights, the faster Li Qi's soul power will increase.
Although this duel is not the finals, it is also crucial. If Li Qi can win this game, his soul power share in this world will probably be maximized.
after all……
He was eliminated in the quarterfinals that year and failed to advance.
The winners of this semi-final were Jin Ming and Zhou Chenxing, one of the top four in the previous session, and the guy who was suspected to be the protagonist of this session. The two of them won.
Li Qi was defeated by the two due to his lack of ability.
As for Bai Shuangshuang...she was able to arrive here smoothly, all thanks to her divine descent skills at the critical moment.
But in this duel, Bai Shuangshuang's divine descent came a little late.
Although they scored a lot of points at the end, they were ultimately unable to make up the score gap with the top two.
So how can I win this time? Li Qi looked at the cards in front of him and thought.
In order to win and gain soul power, Li Qi cannot use abilities beyond the specifications. In other words, he must use the same abilities he used on the field this time at the poker table.
Hearing, and thermal and emotional sensing that have not yet evolved into "clairvoyance" are what Li Qi can use.
With just these, it is absolutely impossible to defeat the cheating Jin Ming and Zhou Chenxing, unless... Li Qi can make good use of everything on the field.
Thinking of this, Li Qi turned his gaze to Bai Shuangshuang.
Bai Shuangshuang has great potential.
Although Li Qi seems to have stronger "gambling ability" than Bai Shuangshuang in this world, in fact, once Bai Shuangshuang starts the divine descent, even Zhou Chenxing, the protagonist of this world, will probably be inferior to him.
After all, Zhou Chenxing was still a mortal, and how could a mortal defeat a god? But the problem was that Bai Shuangshuang's divine descent was very unstable, and usually only started when she was discouraged and desperate.
But this girl is an optimist, so she won't be too upset even if she loses.
Unless...she was targeted to the extreme.
"Sorry, Shuangshuang."
Although it was just an imaginary character and Bai Shuangshuang herself was not here, when Li Qi thought about what he was going to do next, he still expressed a little apology to Bai Shuangshuang.
He observed the current situation of the game, barely trying to see the direction of the game under the fog of Zhou Chenxing, and sensed the cards he needed.
Then he launched an attack on Bai Shuangshuang.
………
Li Qi's soul was wrapped within the white soul barrier.
Xinlian was outside the barrier, staring at Li Qi who was inside it.
She didn't lie, although it was the illusion of a small world she created that made Li Qi live in it.
But during the stage when Li Qi was absorbing soul power, she really had no way of observing Li Qi's situation in the small world.
In other words, she had no idea what Li Qi was thinking, who he was worried about, and who he cared about.
But Xinlian had one thing she didn't tell Li Qi.
That is, while Xinlian was helping to build the small world, she was also absorbing the part of the soul power that the black dragon gave to Li Qi.
Xinlian did this to prevent Li Qi from getting rid of her.
"I finally found a successor, don't think you can get rid of me like this."
Xinlian muttered to herself while absorbing soul power.
She no longer remembered how long she had stayed in the dark sea of the world. It was a number she could not estimate.
She only remembered the feeling of being trapped there, completely empty and alone.
Every time Xinlian regained consciousness for a short time, she would wonder when she would be able to be free. Sometimes she even thought about formatting her memory.
At least this way she wouldn't be in so much pain.
Thanks to Li Qi's appearance, she was rescued from the confinement that seemed to have no end, so Li Qi's existence to Xinlian was actually very special.
Yes, Xinlian chose Li Qi, on the one hand because of the love that Li Qi possessed, and on the other hand Xinlian also had her own little calculations.
But Xinlian definitely didn't think of doing anything bad to Li Qi.
As the only successor in all these years, how could Xinlian do anything bad to him?
She just didn't want Li Qi to abandon her.
This can't be considered as liking or love or anything like that. I'm just afraid of being alone and don't want to go back to being alone again.
Therefore, Xinlian would not allow Li Qi to leave her.
But Li Qi's consciousness is about to be transformed into the soul power of the soul world. Once Li Qi successfully transforms this cultivation method that is completely different from the interstellar world, then Li Qi will be separated from the inheritance of Xinlian.
This is irreversible.
Because the inheritance mecha is integrated into Li Qi's consciousness space, and the main component of the consciousness space is the consciousness inscriptions engraved on the soul.
When the inscription is completely erased, consciousness becomes soul power, and the consciousness space will no longer exist.
Xinlian, who was supposed to be there, would be ejected on the spot.
Although Li Qi could drive her in the conventional way, it was not as smooth as before when the two were combined into one.
So Xinlian thought of a solution.
In a sense, consciousness and soul power are common.
Because they all use soul power, there is no reason why soul power cannot do what consciousness power can do.
Since the consciousness space no longer exists, we have to find a way to create a soul space. To create a soul space, we first need to accept the soul power from Li Qi.
For this reason, Xinlian proposed the idea of creating a virtual small world.
On the surface, it was to allow Li Qi to better accept the soul power, but in fact, it was using "transit" as an excuse to swallow up some of the dissipated soul power.
Of course, Xinlian didn't lie.
What she did could indeed allow Li Qi to quickly absorb soul power and wake up, she just didn't say everything.
"We have to hurry up, the consciousness inscription is getting fainter and fainter."
Xinlian raised her head and looked at the runes engraved in her consciousness space and whispered to herself.
The inscription that Li Qi engraved on his soul through practicing consciousness cultivation has now gradually faded as he absorbs power.
The traces of consciousness are gradually being erased, and new power is being generated.
As the "foreign object" in Li Qi's soul, Xinlian also felt that the force that rejected her was gradually increasing.
She had to quicken her pace.
Otherwise, when Li Qi wakes up completely, that will be the time when she completely leaves Li Qi's body.
The soul power has been almost absorbed. Xinlian is now trying to leave her own place in Li Qi's body by constructing a consciousness space.
Even if the powers appear similar, as long as they are essentially different, it would be extremely difficult to achieve this.
Xinlian has already constructed the rough outline framework, but the most core part cannot be completed.
Because... the core of the last part needs to be connected with Li Qi's soul power.
She wanted to store it in the Dantian of Li Qi's soul in the form of a magic weapon, but this required Li Qi's permission...
"It won't work without him...what should I do now?"
Li Qi has been in the simulated small world for an unknown period of time. Judging from the speed at which his soul power is disappearing, he should wake up soon.
If he can't handle it before he wakes up, considering Li Qi's vigilance towards Xinlian, he will never let Xinlian enter his body again.
Then Xinlian will be truly abandoned! "Ahhh!! I'm so annoyed!!! Do you really dislike me so much?! What's wrong with accepting me?!"
"that--"
"You've been on guard against me since the beginning. Why are you so wary? I won't hurt you!"
"Um... um... hello?"
"What! Can't you see I'm thinking—"
Xinlian, who was already very irritated because of the 'end of the world', had a voice chattering in her ears, which made her even more irritated.
But when she turned her head and looked at the girl who appeared beside her, Xinlian was suddenly stunned. The big eyes she made herself were bigger than light bulbs: "Who are you? How did you get in?!"
This is Li Qi's consciousness space, so there shouldn't be other people here.
But now, in Li Qi's consciousness space, a 'soul body' with long black hair stood beside Xin Lian, blinking at her.
Where did this girl come from?
When did she appear? Who is she?
Countless questions flashed through Xinlian's mind.
Until the girl introduced herself:
"My name is Li Qiao. Sorry, I was here as soon as I woke up, so I don't know how I got here... But don't worry, I'm not a bad person. I'm his sister."
Li Qi said, pointing at Li Qi who was wrapped in a vaguely transparent ball of light.
Even though his appearance had changed and his temperament was completely different, Li Qiao could still recognize at a glance that the person lying in the light ball was his younger brother Li Qi.
But Li Qiao also knew that Li Qi's name was different in each life, so she did not directly say Li Qi's name, but just said that she was the other's sister.
"…elder sister?"
Xinlian was stunned.
Li Qi comes from a large family, so it is normal for him to have several older sisters.
But the girl in front of him didn't look like a member of the Sarnak family at all. She didn't resemble anyone from the Sarnak family at all, and she looked completely different from Li Qi.
How could she be Li Qi's sister?
But... this is indeed Li Qi's consciousness space. If you are not someone extremely important and close to Li Qi, you really can't enter here...
"etc……"
Regardless of whether this girl is Li Qi’s sister or not, the fact that she is here means that Li Qi has absolute trust in her.
In addition, the other party was cultivating consciousness, although it was very weak, it was indeed the prototype of consciousness. Xinlian noticed this and her eyes suddenly lit up.
She immediately flashed to Li Qiao's side, grabbed her hands, and asked with a burning gaze: "Your name is Li Qiao, right? Are you interested in driving a mecha with your brother?"
At this moment, Xinlian plans to save the country in a roundabout way.
