Chapter 152: The Fatal Weakness of Celestial Emperor Xi Xi, Dao Fruit's Second Transformation and Su
Chapter 152: The Fatal Weakness of Celestial Emperor Xi Xi, Dao Fruit's Second Transformation and Supernatural Ability - Star Extractor (Part 1)
Before Li Che's eyes, a stream of light slowly unfolded.
The falling snow instantly evaporated, as Li Che's heart stirred, causing the flow of blood within him to accelerate and release a surge of heat.
"Transmutation..."
"LV4!"
"The first Dao Fruit to transmute to LV4!"
Li Che murmured.
His voice was calm, but it couldn't hide the excitement bubbling within.
Then, he took a deep breath to calm himself.
"Inhale—"
"Exhale—"
The world was silent, and the snow fell softly.
Li Che's eyes opened and closed, his mind settling as he gazed at the flowing light before him.
[Dao Fruit: Immortal Craft (LV4, 0%)]
[Dao Fruit LV4, Second Transformation, Incipient Supernatural Ability (Immortal Craft - Thousand Analysis Hand) Promotion, Obtaining Supernatural Ability (Immortal Craft - Star Extractor)]
The second transformation of the Dao Fruit!
The incipient supernatural ability... had advanced into a full-fledged supernatural ability! No matter how Li Che tried to calm himself, his heart couldn't help but stir.
Supernatural Ability...
Star Extractor...
[Star Extractor (Supernatural Ability): Plucking stars with the hand, absorbing them into the divine self, attracting all spirits]
[First Level: Star Extractor Pupil]
[Infinite Analysis, Soul Extraction and Spirit Enlightenment, Penetrating Illusions and Returning to Truth, Evil Repelling and Evil Punishment]
[Second Level: ???]
[???]
As the incipient supernatural ability advanced, the introduction to the newly acquired supernatural ability naturally emerged in his mind.
Li Che's eyes slightly narrowed.
The first and second levels of the supernatural ability!
It was clear that he couldn't activate the second level of the supernatural ability because his divine perception was too weak to support it.
Even forcing the activation of the second level was beyond his capabilities.
It was as if there was a door standing before him, and no matter how much strength he exerted, he might not be able to move it!
In a word, it all came down to one thing.
Weakness!
Insufficient personal strength.
He didn't bother to consider the effects of the second level of the Star Extractor.
Li Che focused his mind on the first level of the supernatural ability, the Star Extractor Pupil.
Suddenly, a powerful suction force erupted before him.
He felt his soul spinning.
On his forehead, it was as if a third eye had appeared, its pupil shimmering with an extremely mysterious divine light.
Slightly opening and closing, he revealed the vertical eye in his Niwan Palace.
The scenery before him transformed dramatically after the world spun.
The vast, boundless, and immense heavens and earth appeared before him.
In his sight was the Heaven-Piercing Dao Tree, growing in the vast land, shooting up from the ground as if piercing through the sky, shattering the clouds.
On the Dao Tree, branches drooped, and five fruits with seven-colored flowing light hovered.
These were the Dao Fruits! Among them was the Immortal Craft Dao Fruit, which seemed to have grown heavier, slightly bending the branches with its weight.
The bend was minuscule, but to Li Che...
It was incredibly noticeable! It was as if this bend was imprinted in the depths of his soul, and he immediately noticed it.
Then, his gaze shifted to the other four Dao Fruits, namely [Dragon Elephant Vajra], [Pure Heart], [Chess Sage], and [Immortal in the Painting]!
As he looked at them, he felt his Celestial Emperor Xi Xi Pupil between his eyebrows becoming incredibly hot.
It burst forth with endless bright light!
It was dazzling, like the filament of a white-hot lamp being refined by billions of watts of energy!
Within the vertical pupil, energy spread and intertwined, resembling roots or intricate patterns, enveloping Li Che's arms.
His hand couldn't help but rise, fingers spreading, and in an instant, it seemed as if his palm had torn open the void!
Slowly, he reached out towards the four Dao Fruits hanging on the Dao Tree, excluding the Immortal Craft...
As if...
An immortal reaching out to pluck stars from the night sky!
However, Li Che's vision quickly blurred.
His entire consciousness returned to his physical body.
In the courtyard, his heavy breathing sounded like a bellow, constantly drawing in and out.
Each breath stirred the raging airflow!
Wood shavings flew, and he looked at the seven Immortal in the Painting clones inside the room. At some point, they had been released, their forms dissipating, leaving behind the incompletely refined Eight Apex Divine Essence Crystal on the ground.
Li Che felt the greatly enhanced Seven Rounds Divine Foundation and exhaled a breath.
He raised his hand and wiped away the sweat on his forehead.
His back was drenched in sweat.
It was as if he had endured a difficult task, as if he had truly ascended to the heavens, reaching for the stars that were beyond his grasp.
"The Immortal in the Painting clones were released... because of the Dao Fruit resonance?"
"I wanted to reach out and pluck the Dao Fruit hanging there?"
Li Che exhaled, his eyes swirling with strange colors.
He raised his hand to touch his eyebrows, but the vertical eye had disappeared.
The first level of the supernatural ability, the Star Extractor Pupil, had been deactivated.
Yet, Li Che felt a tremendous consumption of essence, energy, and spirit, especially his mental energy, which had been greatly depleted, leaving him with a hazy and confused feeling.
His divine perception was nearly depleted, as if it had been drawn out of him.
Li Che understood that this was the result of the significant consumption from using the supernatural ability.
He sat cross-legged, recovering his state while pondering.
"Star Extractor... the 'stars' refer to the Dao Fruit?"
"What's the point of plucking the Dao Fruit?"
"For now, I can't pluck the Dao Fruit. I'll have to wait until my cultivation is sufficient to formally pluck the Dao Fruit to find out."
Li Che contemplated.
Currently, he could simply assume that the Immortal Craft supernatural ability, Star Extractor Pupil, was an advanced version of the Thousand Analysis Hand, possessing similar functions such as analyzing divine armaments, absorbing divine essence, and more.
Additionally, it seemed to have gained effects like 'Soul Extraction and Spirit Enlightenment, Penetrating Illusions and Returning to Truth, Evil Repelling and Evil Punishment.'
"Spirit Enlightenment..."
Li Che closed his eyes, and the implications of the supernatural ability slowly flowed through his mind, informing him of the meaning of spirit enlightenment.
"Enlightenment of the spirit?"
Li Che opened his eyes, a strange light flashing in them.
"Penetrating Illusions and Returning to Truth means I can ignore any illusions and falsehoods, including the Soul Confusion Array."
Li Che exhaled, and the meaning of Evil Repelling and Evil Punishment was self-explanatory.
Developing the supernatural ability would take time, but overall, he was satisfied with its effects.
However, mastering the supernatural ability... required more power.
For now, his strength was still lacking.
Snowflakes fell again, landing on his hair, shoulders, and the book he held in his hand.
Li Che didn't use his energy to evaporate the snow.
He continued reading the Tang Clan True Transmission Mechanism.
As Li Che's gaze fell upon it, his Immortal Worker Dao Fruit reached Level 4, and his understanding and insights into mechanisms took another direct leap.
Compared to the Tang Family Mechanism Essentials, which was even more abstruse and difficult to comprehend, in his eyes, the Tang Clan's Genuine Transmission Mechanism suddenly became more comprehensible.
Li Che carefully examined it, and in his mind, it was as if he was constantly deducing and calculating, constructing a model of the mechanism.
Suddenly, he felt the golden book in his hand, which recorded the Tang Clan's Genuine Transmission Mechanism, tremble slightly.
The characters on it seemed to come alive.
Suddenly, in Li Che's eyes, they transformed into a scripture.
Li Che was surprised, but after the initial shock, he calmed down.
"This is the Tang Clan's ultimate technique, the Nine Seals of Mechanism. It is the key to creating mechanism beasts, as well as the essence and core!"
"Only with sufficient comprehension can one extract the essence from the Tang Clan's Genuine Transmission Mechanism and refine this ultimate technique!"
"Warriors in Battle Form Arrays, the Nine Seals of Mechanism, were developed by the Tang Clan's ancestors from the strange temple they suppressed. It was integrated into the mechanism technique, forming the Tang Clan's unique mechanism path."
"Mechanism beasts require the bestowal of seals. The more mechanism seals a mechanism beast can bear, the more powerful it becomes!"
"The Capital Mechanism Beast bears one seal, while the Nine Stars Mechanism Beast bears two seals..."
"The Tang Clan's four supreme-level mechanism beasts bear seven mechanism seals!"
Li Che's eyes opened and closed, and a radiant glow emanated from them.
So that's how it is...
This is the true essence of the Tang Clan's mechanisms!
His heart surged with excitement, and he began to carefully study the Nine Seals of Mechanism. This was a technique among the ultimate techniques.
Li Che was very interested in any ultimate technique.
He wondered if it could be integrated into his Ten Thousand Transformation Dragon Elephant.
However, Li Che soon frowned as he realized that the Nine Seals of Mechanism was clearly a level higher than any ultimate technique he had encountered so far.
Comprehending it was extremely challenging.
But Li Che was quite patient.
While recovering his energy, he also studied the ultimate technique, the Nine Seals of Mechanism.
Two days later.
At Thunder Peak, in the small courtyard.
Xi Xi wore a pigtail, and her body was wrapped in a big red cotton jacket. She poked her little head out, occasionally appearing beside Li Che.
"Daddy, are you done?"
"Daddy, are you done making it?"
"Xi Xi is getting impatient, Daddy, hurry up!"
Xi Xi kept chattering incessantly, her mouth pouting and mumbling.
In the distance.
Gong Yang Xiu and Gong Yuanliang dared not approach, as they were a little afraid of Xi Xi's daddy.
They always felt that Xi Xi's daddy's gaze was extremely sharp, as if he wanted to hammer their heads.
Lu Chi beside them had already gotten used to it.
Having endured a lot, his psychological tolerance had silently improved.
Since Thunderbolt City, Lu Chi had endured Li Che's gaze, so this little scene was nothing.
Lu Chi snorted as he practiced martial arts, looking down on Gong Yang Xiu and Gong Yuanliang with a nasal snort.
The three little rascals' thoughts about each other were of no concern to Li Che.
He was carving a small object.
The carving knife in his hand kept flipping, and the Spirit Wood shavings scattered like a radiant glow, falling like snowflakes.
After the promotion of his Immortal Worker Dao Fruit, Li Che's carving skills had almost reached a state of perfection, forming his own unique style.
"Done!"
Li Che put away his carving knife and rubbed Xi Xi's little head that was poking over.
"Huh? Daddy, where's the little crow you mentioned? What is this? It's so ugly."
Xi Xi said, baring her teeth.
The little butterfly on her shoulder was also curious, flapping its wings.
Gong Yang Xiu, Gong Yuanliang, and Lu Chi beside them couldn't help but be curious and came over.
Li Che smiled and assembled the scattered parts on the ground, fitting them together with mortise and tenon joints, without using a single nail.
Then, Li Che opened his mouth, and a powerful gust of air blew from his mouth.
Instantly, the assembled wooden spirit crane was blown away, revealing a streamlined mechanism beast body.
"This is..."
The big-headed Lu Chi's eyes narrowed.
Mechanism Beast?!
This is a mechanism beast!
Uncle Li can actually make a mechanism beast? Although it only has the appearance of a mechanism beast, this is already an extraordinary feat.
However, what surprised Lu Chi even more happened soon after.
Li Che was very satisfied amidst the three little kids' exclamations of "Wow!"
He raised his palm, and his five fingers hooked in the air, drawing nimbly.
The next moment, Li Che outlined a "Go" mechanism seal with his divine essence and then embedded it into the body of the mechanism beast.
Li Che released his hand.
Click, click, click, click—
The wooden spirit beast staggered and its spirit wood wings flapped constantly.
It seemed to be getting familiar with this body.
Li Che sat quietly on the ground, and between his eyebrows, a divine pattern seemed to appear.
Then it turned into a vertical pupil that flashed and disappeared in an instant.
Supernatural Ability—
Star Extractor Pupil! Spirit Enlightenment!
A stream of light burst out from the vertical pupil and merged into the wooden spirit crane, slowly fusing with the core of the wooden spirit crane where the "Go" mechanism seal was embedded.
In an instant, the originally stupid and clumsy wooden spirit crane that was flapping its wings became lively and agile.
It hopped around the courtyard and even came to Xi Xi's side, caressing her face.
"Giggle, giggle! Wow! Daddy is so amazing! This big bird is so fun!"
The butterfly on Xi Xi's shoulder also flapped its wings, staring at the wooden spirit crane in a challenging manner.
The wooden spirit crane tilted its neck, and Xi Xi landed on its back, and then it flapped its wings.
It carried Xi Xi and flew into the sky, soaring and dashing in the small courtyard.
Xi Xi was extremely happy, her little face flushed. This big crane was much more fun than twisting and turning!
"Daddy, I'm flying!"
Xi Xi's laughter echoed in the sky, accompanied by a jingling laughter.
The playful Xi Xi was overjoyed!
Li Che looked at Xi Xi's bright smile, patted the wood shavings on his ink-stained robe, and stood up with his hands behind his back.
His eyes were gentle, and a smile played on his lips.
The Nine Seals of Mechanism, entry level! Mastering one seal is considered entry-level.
This mechanism ultimate technique was extremely difficult, and it took Li Che three days to barely enter the entry level and master the first seal. The more seal techniques he mastered, the more challenging it became.
He felt that the rank of the Nine Seals of Mechanism even surpassed that of ultimate techniques.
"Drones... experts at aerial bombing."
Li Che smiled, quite satisfied with the Wooden Spirit Crane he had crafted.
Moreover, the mechanical beasts he created possessed even greater sentience...
Because he had infused them with the enlightening light of his supernatural ability, the Star Extractor, they were incredibly lifelike and human-like.
