Chapter 178: Celestial Upgrades the Fire God Cannon, Within Its Range, I Reign Supreme (Part 1)
Cat Face...
Ouch, he called me Cat Face!
Li Qing Shan's beard and hair fluttered, and the smile on his face could no longer be contained.
These words were all too familiar. When he was looking for Li Che to stir up trouble, he had called Li Che 'Niu Mo'.
And now, Niu Mo was using the same words to invite him to join in the mischief!
Li Qing Shan was well aware that he was different from Niu Mo and might find it difficult to infiltrate the core of the Netherworld. He only knew one Niu Mo, and that was by chance, before Niu Mo had grown into the powerful being he was now.
As for Ma Mian, Li Qing Shan could only approach Niu Mo.
Not to mention the Divine Monkey who could battle a Grand Sage.
Although Li Qing Shan possessed the Netherworld's Divine Interaction Mirror, it was more of a tool for communication with clients.
It was difficult to infiltrate the core of a power.
Li Qing Shan's expectations were not high; he was content to take it slow.
"What great fortune?"
Li Qing Shan narrowed his eyes, clearly in a good mood.
Although he had just broken through to the Divine Form Realm, his combat strength was not weak. Even against a Primordial Form Realm opponent, he could still put up a good fight.
Moreover, his martial cultivation had reached the Later Stage of the Grandmaster Realm. His True Intention Ultimate Art, Eight Dragons Tidal Wave, had advanced from five blood dragons to six!
With six blood dragons, he had essentially mastered this True Intention Ultimate Art to the level of a Grand Master, giving birth to the Ultimate True Intention.
Using the True Intention, he could flush his internal organs, refining them to achieve unparalleled resilience, without flaws or leaks, and condense his Divine Essence!
Challenging the Grand Sage Realm! Therefore, with sufficient combat experience, he might be able to accelerate his comprehension and breakthrough.
Li Che's gaze was deep as he looked at Li Qing Shan.
Remembering Li Qing Shan's words when he had invited him, Li Che couldn't help but feel a sense of turning the heavens upside down.
Shaking his head slightly, Li Che's gaze gradually intensified.
"Kill the Little Prince?"
Li Che asked softly.
However, as the words fell into Li Qing Shan's ear, they sounded like a thunderclap, like an angry dragon wrapped in electricity, rolling and roaring behind the clouds!
Li Qing Shan's eyes narrowed involuntarily.
Kill the Little Prince, Ji Hai Hui?
Kill the son of Ji Mo Li?!
This was...
Indeed, it was too stimulating!
But, despite his surprise, Li Qing Shan wasn't overly shocked. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Like the Hunter God Pavilion? The Hunter God Pavilion also accepted the task of hunting down the Little Prince. Has the Netherworld also taken on this task?"
Li Che didn't explain, but smiled and said, "You could say that."
This Little Prince... although he had been beaten up by Xi Xi, his heart was too vicious. He actually planned to kill Li Che and Zhang Ya, leaving Xi Xi an orphan.
With such a cruel heart, he was nothing like a five-year-old child, and Li Che didn't need to show him any mercy.
"Not only do we need to kill Ji Hai Hui, but also the six Black Armored Bloodguards by his side, and that hidden in the darkness... Divine Essence True Person."
Li Che murmured softly.
Li Qing Shan's hair stood on end.
Was this Niu Mo? An eye for an eye... who said Niu Mo was honest and straightforward? Li Qing Shan was not one to be trifled with!
He had just killed the Grand Sage, Xue Dudu, who was by Ji Hai Hui's side, and now he was targeting the Divine Essence True Person?
Was he planning to torment the Little Prince mentally by continuously hunting down the protective forces around Ji Hai Hui?
And...
He even wanted to challenge the Divine Essence True Person!
In common knowledge, the Divine Essence True Person was slightly stronger than the Grand Sage of Divine Essence, and their means were more diverse and mysterious.
No one knew what terrifying secret techniques a Divine Essence True Person might possess.
Li Che left with Xi Xi and Zhang Ya.
Li Qing Shan sat in a chair, gazing out the window at the pouring rain, his eyes flashing.
A long-lost fighting spirit burned in his eyes.
Niu Mo...
It seemed he was finally going to bring him into the game!
...
...
Nan Lihuo returned to the temple, pacing quietly.
The heavy rain poured down, and this winter rain seemed to grow more agitated because of that mushroom cloud firework.
Raindrops pelted the tiles, constantly bouncing and shattering.
The wind howled through the temple.
Feeling the incessant howling wind, Nan Lihuo's white hair blew wildly.
After a while, he couldn't help but raise his lips in a slight smile.
He sat down on the steps of the temple.
His gaze was deep and mysterious.
With a flash of his palm, a jar of old wine appeared in his hand. He broke the seal and started drinking alone.
"Both the Netherworld and the Hunter God Pavilion want to kill Ji Hai Hui..."
"Now, the Grand Sage by Ji Hai Hui's side is dead, leaving only the Divine Essence True Person to protect him... the protective forces have greatly weakened."
"There's a chance..."
"A real chance..."
"And there's also Su Huaili!"
Glug, glug...
The wine flowed into his mouth and down his neck.
Nan Lihuo's eyes reddened slightly for some unknown reason.
"Ji Mo Li..."
Nan Lihuo's face suddenly contorted with endless pain, as if a memory of heart-wrenching torture surged into his mind.
...
...
Time passed, and after days of continuous winter rain, it finally stopped.
The Golden Light City, washed by the rain, was filled with a chilling atmosphere.
The waters of the Nine Dragon River were agitated and turbulent, as if some great terror was about to awaken from within.
The divine essence in the heavens and earth grew increasingly dense, unique to the Four Sacred Armaments' strange temple, which was leaking divine essence.
The oppressive heat seemed to rise from the riverbed, then surge into the sky, melting the accumulated snow and turning it into rain.
Everyone knew.
The scorching river water and the thickening divine essence meant that the day of the temple deity's resonance was drawing near.
Zhen Lei Peak.
The cold wind howled.
There was no snow, nor had it rained.
In the courtyard, Li Che was earnestly instructing Zhang Ya in martial arts.
With Li Che's guidance, Zhang Ya's martial arts improved rapidly, and her progress was evident.
Zhang Ya practiced diligently, clearly stimulated by the recent assassination attempt.
If she didn't want to be a burden, she had to strive to become stronger, at least to the point where she could protect herself and not become a hindrance to her daughter and Li Che.
Li Che imparted his martial arts experience, wrapped in his divine essence, to Zhang Ya, then headed up the mountain to work.
Walking along the long street, Li Che approached the location of the Tide Watching Pavilion, which had become a huge pit and ruins. Many workers were clearing the debris and repairing the ground.
Li Che didn't pay much attention.
In recent days, the Little Prince, Ji Hai Hui, had completely retreated into the City Lord Manor, not moving an inch, as if he had truly been scared.
Li Che guessed that the Little Prince would likely remain like this until the temple deity's resonance began.
He was quite skilled at playing the shrinking turtle.
However, the killing of a Grand Sage had indeed intimidated the Little Prince.
Speaking of the Temple Deity Resonance Conference...
Li Che raised his hand, and a gentle breeze seemed to flow through his fingers.
Within the gentle breeze, there seemed to be the sound of an angry child's roar, deafeningly loud.
"The divinity of the Bizarre Temple of the Eight-Armed Hell Lotus's Third Prince is becoming increasingly intense... The restlessness of the divinity signifies that the corrosive power will become even stronger and more terrifying..."
"The Bizarre Palace is about to open..."
Li Che exhaled.
As the days drew closer, even Li Che felt a certain inexplicable pressure.
This might be the greatest opportunity for his daughter!
After all, it involved a Four Sacred Bizarre Temple.
Along with the great opportunity, there was also great danger!
Although the Divine Sect held the Four Sacred Armaments, Li Che still couldn't help but worry about Xi Xi's safety.
However, sometimes, this worry was inevitable.
His daughter would eventually grow up, and she had the Fire Spear Gun in her arm.
With this proof, during the Temple Deity Resonance, she should have an advantage over other divine children and be safer.
The ink robe fluttered in the wind as Li Che arrived at the Heavenly Divination Bureau's Treasure Pavilion by the cliff.
The building was as warm as spring.
A charcoal stove radiated heat as it burned hot coals.
Shangguan Qinghong sat on a chair, cracking sunflower seeds. When she saw Li Che, she greeted him.
Li Che came to work here every day, rain or shine.
Shangguan Qinghong, on the other hand, simply had nowhere else to go.
The Shangguan family had long since declined, and everyone knew about her assassination of her biological father, Shangguan Zhenheng. Therefore, she couldn't return to the Shangguan family and could only stay at the Heavenly Divination Bureau.
"Brother Che, do you think I'll have a chance to meet the Netherworld Horse Face? I want to apprentice under him and learn his sniping techniques!"
Shangguan Qinghong sighed.
However, among the Netherworld's multitude, the Horse Face was the most mysterious.
Even when he took action, he was the kind that left no trace of his figure.
Li Che paused at her words and smiled gently without saying anything.
As he climbed to the second floor and headed towards his workshop, he found two people already sitting there, drinking tea and chatting.
They were none other than Lu Yao, the Deputy Director of the Heavenly Divination Bureau in Dao City, and Tang Sanjia, the Ridge Master of Divine Crane Ridge.
"Ah Che, come here."
Tang Sanjia's eyes lit up when he saw Li Che.
The mushroom cloud firework had already led Tang Sanjia to speculate about Li Che's identity.
Perhaps, this extremely gentle and honest woodcarving master was the ruthless and sinister Niu Mo, who killed without batting an eye.
Even if he wasn't, the mechanism that flattened the Tide Watching Pavilion in the Netherworld must have been related to Li Che.
"How's your progress with the Nine Mechanism Seals?"
Tang Sanjia poured a cup of tea for Li Che.
Lu Yao was a bit surprised, not expecting the ill-tempered Tang Sanjia to be in such a good mood.
The Nine Mechanism Seals were a set of ultimate mechanical techniques, and each seal mastered could grant the mechanical beast unique powers.
These seals were similar to the Thousand-Handed Divine Crane Technique passed down by the Heavenly Divination Bureau, both belonging to the category of divine martial arts.
When used, they not only consumed blood aura but also harnessed divinity.
As the mechanism seals were embedded in the mechanical beasts, they contained blood aura and divinity, making the beasts more lifelike.
It was as if they were imbued with true spirits.
Moreover, Li Che vaguely felt that the Nine Mechanism Seals had other functions, but he couldn't figure them out temporarily.
After all, he wasn't a true Tang family heir.
Currently, Li Che had already mastered the Nine Mechanism Seals, a divine ultimate art, to a great extent, and before reaching the Mechanist Mastery, he could sketch out approximately five mechanism seals, namely the "Ready, Battle, All" five seals.
Each mechanism seal had unique effects.
It was mainly because the Nine Mechanism Seals were too well-suited for Li Che.
Not only were they martial arts, but they were also related to Immortal Craft, and when combined with the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit, his progress was simply astonishing.
Li Che even felt that his speed was a bit slow.
The number of mechanism seals Li Che had mastered far exceeded Tang Sanjia's expectations.
"Five mechanism seals?!"
"How is this possible?"
Tang Sanjia's grip on the teacup loosened, and the tea splashed out, his eyes filled with astonishment.
The difficulty of the Nine Mechanism Seals far surpassed that of ordinary True Intention martial arts and required the coordination of divinity.
Although they were considered martial arts and could be used in combat...
For Li Che to master five mechanism seals in such a short time was simply...
Monstrous!
A person born for mechanisms! Tang Sanjia's face was filled with regret, and he lamented, "Why aren't you a member of my Tang family...?"
Li Che smiled but didn't respond.
Lu Yao, standing beside him, gave Li Che a curious look, thinking of the Tang family's Nine Mechanism Seals...
As the Deputy Director of the Heavenly Divination Bureau in Dao City, he had naturally heard of them.
Tang Sanjia exhaled, shook his head, and then turned to Li Che, taking out a set of blueprints from his pocket.
"These are some of my research on the mechanisms you mentioned last time..."
"Take a look. If it's helpful and can assist you in creating mechanisms, that would be best."
Tang Sanjia calmed down and began to appreciate Li Che even more.
Li Che's eyes lit up, and he took the blueprints from Tang Sanjia. As he unfolded them, he saw the design of the Avalokitesvara Lotus Main Battle Tank.
Li Che examined it carefully, noticing that many aspects conflicted with his design, but Tang Sanjia's application of the Nine Mechanism Seals technology was more reasonable and convenient in many places than Li Che's original design.
Li Che's understanding suddenly deepened, and his eyes brightened.
The Immortal Art Fruit pulsed, and he immediately grasped the essence of Tang Sanjia's blueprints.
Indeed, even with the mastery of the Immortal Art Fruit, experience was still crucial in many cases.
As the saying goes, 'When three people walk together, there will be my teacher among them,' and it was indeed true.
Li Che's heart stirred, and he found himself contemplating the Avalokitesvara Lotus Main Battle Tank.
Tang Sanjia's visit this time was to deliver the blueprints to Li Che, along with a special kind of spirit wood.
"Ah Che, this is the extremely resilient spirit wood you asked me to find, capable of conducting divinity... Fire God Wrath Dragon Wood, the only one in the entire Divine Crane Ridge."
Ridge."
Li Che's gaze intensified.
Then, he felt a scorching temperature!
A vast divine energy surged and raged.
A huge, crimson-red wooden stump, large enough to require two people to embrace, appeared before Li Che.
