This ’other person’ was probably anyone whose abilities were inferior to his.
"A fraction of the power from the universe, I would really like to witness it! I just don’t know how you will display this power."
Li Ming stared intently at the figure of Li Dingguo in front of him, and with so anticipation, he spoke.
"The energy of the universe originates from the universe and radiates out from it. Pick up a weapon and experience it for yourself."
A smile flashed at the corner of Li Dingguo’s mouth. As his words fell, he, once again, disappeared from Li Ming’s sight.
"Radiates from the universe?"
Li Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, then thought for a while. With a movent of his mind, the treasure tripod inside his body imdiately spit out the extraordinary tallic spear. He then held the spear and stabbed it forward.
"Vrr..."
In an instant, it was as if he was being rejected by the universe, powerful energy rushed from all directions, making Li Ming’s face change slightly. He had to use all his muscular strength to resist it.
"Is this the power of the universe?"
Li Ming uttered in astonishnt as he began to involuntarily harness his ability throughout his body, pushing back the energy coming at him from all directions, but during this process, his power was also rapidly depleting.
That energy seed to co from everywhere, theoretically, it should have counteracted each other, but everything he encountered seed distinct, demanding him to exert force to resist each.
It was like resisting the forces coming from every corner of the surrounding space. Even the slightest force required ten tis the effort to resist and counter.
Just like now, all these forces were acting on the extraordinary tallic spear, which should have been neutralized by each other according to common sense, but Li Ming had to use various ans to resist these forces rushing from all directions through the spear, defeating them one by one, rejecting the outside world.
So in the blink of an eye, he appeared to be just standing upright holding a spear, but in reality, he had launched hundreds of strikes using all available strength techniques from form and intent boxing, through-arm boxing, tai chi, swordsmanship, spearmanship, and so on.
Li Ming’s expression was filled with amazent and it hardened.
"The universe is omnipresent; the power of the universe can achieve anything; there is no rise, there is no fall, nor thought, everything just depends on the circumstances."
The sound of Li Dingguo’s voice drifted from the empty space in front, accompanied by a more surging power. Li Ming’s spear shook, even his thrice-evolved physical body was sowhat unable to cope, forcing him to use the power of his true energy to assist the extraordinary ability in countering it.
"What is the power of the universe, how did you do it?"
After steadying his spear again, Li Ming couldn’t help showing a different color in his eyes. He looked up at the empty space in front and asked.
"Only by striving upward."
Even as the sound of laughter echoed through, Li Ming felt the force against the spear suddenly weaken and then rapidly lighten. Li Ming raised his eyebrows and put away his spear concurrently. His body was surprisingly drenched in sweat, but his gaze was intensely focused on the front.
From the previously desolate void, a figure with a smile on his face appeared unexpectedly - it was the long-absent Li Dingguo!
"Master Li Dingguo."
Li Ming’s odd behavior of applying force to the air had long attracted the attention of the people around him. Seeing Li Dingguo suddenly appear, Mrs. Zhang’s eyes widened. She then imdiately recognized who he was and involuntarily blurted out.
"Yes, it’s , Mrs. Zhang."
Li Dingguo nodded to Mrs. Zhang with a smile. Dressed in plain clothes, there was a sense of inner tranquility emanating from him. He then looked at Li Ming, his smile widening, "I didn’t expect that after such a long period of absence, you would bring such a big surprise. You can counter the strongest energy of my innate power just by employing a part of your tricks, which is truly amazing."
"Just so power gained by chance, nothing worth ntioning. As for you, it’s been so long, and you’ve already developed such an incredible skill!"
Li Ming expressed his astonishnt and then greeted Li Dingguo with a laugh. With a flick of his hand, the spear magically disappeared, a sight that left Li Dingguo amazed.
"Zhang Yuan, please prepare tea in the inner room. It’s been a long ti since I last saw Master Li Dingguo, I need to have a good talk with him. Everyone, enjoy tonight and get ready to leave, I’ll take my leave first."
After expressing his sentintality to Li Dingguo, Li Ming couldn’t help but instruct Zhang Yuan. He then addressed the residents of the Linjiang Villa community.
"There’s no need for Sister Zhang Yuan to serve tea. I’ll go, I’ll go."
Liu Li, always dressed modestly and elegantly, had been by Li Ming’s side all this while, seeing this situation she quickly interjected with a smile, then she rushed inside the house before Li Ming could refuse.
"Ah, Liu Li."
Zhang Yuan couldn’t help but call out, seeing Liu Li walking quickly while wiggling her hips, she shook her head helplessly and let her be.
Li Ming didn’t mind these details. Seeing Liu Li leave, he didn’t ask Zhang Yuan to follow. Instead, he warmly escorted Li Dingguo ho.
Liu Li was indeed quick. By the ti Li Ming led Li Dingguo to the villa’s tea room, she had already prepared the tea and was portraying a dutiful and caring manner.
Li Ming didn’t care about this either. He led Li Dingguo to take a seat and picked up the tea. Then he addressed Li Dingguo with a sigh, "Looking back, it seems like a blink of an eye since our last eting. In this vast end of days, I didn’t expect to see you again today, even more, I didn’t expect such amazing skills from Master, I’m truly impressed."
"On the contrary, it was your display of power that made astonished!"
Li Dingguo laughed casually, glanced at the tea cup held by Li Ming and paused for a mont before he casually lifted his own cup, clinked it with Li Ming’s, then drank it down.
"I wonder what kind of circumstances Master has encountered out there these tis, and what opportunities led to your remarkable transformation today, it’s astonishing!"
Li Ming took a small sip of his tea, and with a gleam in his eyes, said, "I am very interested in the happenings outside as well."
"It was just several brushes with death, countless battles refined . As for opportunities, indeed, there was one."
Li Dingguo casually shook his head and laughed lightly. "Up in the great mountains and rivers, in the ancestral lands of Shenzhou, a heritage gradually revealed itself with ti, as luck would have it, I got hold of a fragntary text of cultivation known as ’Inner Universe Martial Dao’. At that ti, I encountered a terrifying creature. Under the stress of life and death, I comprehended a thod that is in harmony with the heaven and earth, I call it — the power of Inner Universe."
"My luck pales in comparison to your opportunities."
Li Dingguo revealed a slight smile, politely nodded to Liu Li who was pouring tea for him, then his gaze fell upon Li Ming, "I ca back this ti hoping to exchange ideas with you, but the mont I saw you, I noticed things I’d rather not see."
"Your heart, it’s tainted."
Li Dingguo looked at Li Ming, his voice was solemn, "Do you still rember what you truly desired back when the apocalypse first descended, or even before it descended?"
Li Ming was taken aback, his face broke into an amused smile. Then it suddenly froze and the smile gradually faded.

The morning sun shone on the villa area, ti passed and the snow between heaven and earth finally lessened a bit, the power of the sun strengthening gradually.
Liu Li was laying at her ho’s windowsill, her body shaking slightly. After a long ti, she relaxed intensely.
"Okay, I have to go now. You go on with your business."
Li Ming, who had just finished practicing his sword and spear skills in the square of the villa area, patted Liu Li’s waist, and after a simple goodbye, jogged back. Liu Li enthusiastically saw him off.
After having breakfast prepared by Yang Ruo and six maids, Li Ming did so physical exercises and then went to the study of the villa, quietly flipping open the previous page of a book.
