Chapter 263: Xi Xi, at Five, Condenses True Qi and Enters the Grand Master Realm, Using Sword Immort
Chapter 263: Xi Xi, at Five, Condenses True Qi and Enters the Grand Master Realm, Using Sword Immortal's Power to Forge the Six Desires Form (Part 1)
Dense death energy and corpse energy rose, like igniting bellflowers, continuously emitting black smoke.
The rolling and surging energy resembled a hideous, twisted evil spirit crawling out from the depths of the underworld.
The night sky was shrouded, and the stars disappeared into the darkness.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
The eerie wind howled, like the wailing of ghosts. The terrifying rank pressure instantly spread and weaved from the black smoke, forming the Corpse God Seal, suffocating and making it difficult to breathe.
Vaguely, surrounding the Corpse God Seal, a massive and terrifying figure slowly condensed, emitting a scarlet glow like a horrifying eye, falling from the distant heavens.
This Corpse God Seal was thoroughly activated, and the aura it unleashed was even more terrifying than the one obtained from the Demon Child's body.
The evil followers of the Corpse Deity Sect wanted to corrupt Huang Jianjiu, but Huang Jianjiu, as the second true successor of the Heavenly Origin Sect, possessed formidable strength and talent.
With such extraordinary talent, the Corpse Deity Sect was eager to use the Corpse God Seal to corrupt the Heavenly Origin Sect in Lingnan.
Due to Huang Jianjiu's advanced cultivation, the Corpse God Seal they used was of a high rank, reaching the Middle Rank Elder Fifth Level.
Boom, boom, boom!!!
As Li Che released the Corpse God Seal from the Heaven-Earth Chessboard, a terrifying pressure swept through, overwhelming and crushing everything in its path.
Even Li Che's expression changed slightly at this moment.
He never expected the Corpse God Seal to be this terrifying upon its revival.
The Middle Rank Elder Fifth Level Corpse God Seal was equivalent to a Martial Saint and Divine Embryo-level Corpse God.
Moreover, the rank of the Corpse God was almost comparable to a Temple Deity, making it invincible among its peers.
At this moment, even Li Che felt as if a huge stone was pressing down on his chest, freezing his blood. Every muscle twitched, constantly pumping blood, making it boil and his qi surge.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!
It was as if countless ghosts were howling, and the black smoke that condensed into a twisted, massive figure emitted an extreme terror. The Corpse God Seal continued to expand...
It was almost like a mountain about to crush everyone.
It was terrifying.
Li Che's third eye, the Muddy Pellet, glowed, and his Star Snatching Eye triggered. His flesh tore, and his golden eye released a dazzling divine light.
The Impure Heart Fruit trembled, releasing the Pure Heart Divinity. Within the Muddy Pellet's inner landscape, the Temple Deity images from his cultivation state revived, opening their eyes and roaring. The Bright True Ape even beat its chest and howled to the sky.
They assisted Li Che in counteracting this oppressive force.
Beside Li Che, Huang Jianjiu, the Capture Spirit, had a solemn expression.
The Sword Case exploded, and the Sword Immortal's Sword burst forth with infinite, scorching light. Nine sword auras, like dragon snakes, coiled upwards, resembling an opening umbrella, countering the terrifying pressure of the Corpse God Seal's collapse.
However, even the Sword Saint, renowned for his offensive prowess, felt immense pressure at this moment.
All nine sword auras seemed to be bent under pressure. They vibrated and trembled, flickering hundreds of times in a single breath.
The Middle Rank Elder Fifth Level Corpse God Seal violently expanded and twisted, and the surging death and corpse energy surged like a tidal wave, instantly filling Thunder Listening Lane. It was as if, at the other end of the alley, the yellow spring of hell had broken through the barriers of time and space, and the turbid yellow water flow roared, corroding everything in its path.
Boom!!!
At this moment, Li Che finally saw the Corpse God summoned by the Corpse God Seal.
Unlike the twisted, bloated, and deformed Temple Deity from the Demon Child's Corpse God Seal, this one was a colossal blue-faced, fanged Buddha with writhing tentacles all over his body, and behind him was even a dark-colored halo.
Li Che's heart trembled slightly. Having cultivated the Six Desires Divinity, he immediately recognized the divinity of this Corpse God.
It was the Touching Corpse God among the Six Desires Corpse Gods.
However, just as the overwhelming death and corpse energy was about to engulf the restaurant...
"Woof!!!
A dog's bark echoed like thunder from the nine heavens, shaking the earth.
Buzz!
The sound waves dispelled all the pressure from the Corpse God's rank, leaving no trace. This tiny dog paw contained the terrifying power to support the collapsing heavens and earth.
Li Che's eyes narrowed slightly, and a strange color flashed in his pupils.
This tiny dog paw gave him an unprecedented sense of security.
The dog paw struck out.
It sounded like a terrifying thunderclap, as if a heavenly being wielded an enormous drumstick, pounding the earth. The enormous Corpse God with countless tentacles that had just formed was instantly pressed down by the dog paw, twisting and exploding like a cream cake.
A muffled bang!
This newly arrived Touching Corpse God was instantly crushed.
The death and corpse energy dissipated, as if instantly evaporated by a mighty force.
Only a spinning Corpse God Seal remained, floating in front of Li Che.
The world became quiet, and the cold moonlight, previously obscured, shone down again, elongating the shadows of Li Che and the Big Black Dog on the ground.
Although Huang Jianjiu was by Li Che's side, releasing his sword intent, he was a Capture Spirit and could not cast a shadow.
This Middle Rank Fifth Level Corpse Deity Seal was incredibly clever and devoid of any malevolent aura.
It hovered quietly in the air, spinning with a soft whooshing sound.
It was completely subdued by Big Black Dog's palm strike.
The swirling "Touch" character indicated the attributes of this Corpse Deity Seal.
Huang Jian Jiu's Binding Spirit stood by Li Che's side, their eyes wide in astonishment.
"Is it... over?"
"But this is the Corpse Deity Seal!"
Huang Jian Jiu was all too familiar with the terror of this Corpse Deity Seal, having been tormented by it to the point of wishing for death.
Yet, under the claws of Big Black Dog... no, Senior Dog, this Corpse Deity Seal's will was completely extinguished, and it became utterly obedient?
Huang Jian Jiu felt a sense of awe in his heart, sheathed his sword qi, and stood in solemn respect.
Senior Dog... was truly formidable!
Li Che's eyes widened in surprise, glancing at the boss, whose complexion remained unchanged as he took a puff from his cigarette, shook off the ashes, and watched the two with growing curiosity.
Even the boss's dog was so fierce?
Then what about the boss himself?
Li Che withdrew his gaze and looked at Big Black Dog, who proudly shook his paw, his eyes filled with a hint of mockery and satisfaction.
It was as if he was saying, "A light claw in exchange for a day of play with Xi Xi, a great deal for this dog!"
Li Che smiled and assured the dog that he could relax.
He always kept his word and never deceived anyone, young or old.
With a thought, the Heaven-Earth Chessboard retracted, collecting the Corpse Deity Seal. He then used the recently completed Tri-Evolved Purity Heart Fruit to cleanse the divinity of the seal before flicking it with his finger and sending it into Huang Jian Jiu's Binding Spirit's heart.
"I entrust the Corpse Deity Seal to you. Find the traces of the Corpse Deity Sect in Heavenly Origin Dao City..."
Li Che said.
Upon hearing this, Huang Jian Jiu rarely became solemn.
"Yes, my lord."
Huang Jian Jiu was then collected by Li Che, transformed into a Binding Spirit Chess Piece, and placed within the Heaven-Earth Chessboard for cultivation.
After all, having self-destructed once and then being shattered by Big Black Dog, Huang Jian Jiu's Binding Spirit state had weakened somewhat.
Before being collected, Huang Jian Jiu wanted to say something but stopped, tears welling up in his eyes.
It wasn't...
He had come all this way, and they wouldn't let him have a drink?
Unfortunately, Li Che ignored his pleading eyes, yearning for three hundred cups of Dragon Blood Wine.
Li Che dusted off his ink-stained robe and stepped into the restaurant.
"Boss, bring me something to eat."
"Only noodles."
"Then I'll have a bowl of noodles."
"Heh."
"I'm not picky."
"Just wait."
The boss extinguished his cigarette, and despite the absence of any tobacco smell, he turned and entered the kitchen, causing the copper bell hanging on the door to jingle.
Soon after, a fragrant aroma wafted out from the kitchen.
A small lamp and a bowl of noodles.
The warmth remained unchanged.
...
...
Li Che kept his word and took Xi Xi to the restaurant the next day.
After playing with Big Black Dog all day, of course, Xi Xi was the happiest, and with the boss's feeding, she barely stopped eating all day.
Whatever she wanted, the boss would make it for her.
From time to time, Xi Xi would ride on Big Black Dog, leaning forward with her arms wrapped around his neck, as they ran through the alleys.
Big Black Dog stuck out his tongue, jumping and leaping joyfully, carrying Xi Xi at lightning speed.
He was nothing like the Senior Dog who had extinguished the Corpse Deity's will with a single palm strike the night before.
However, the happy moments were fleeting, and after a day of eating, drinking, and playing in the restaurant, Li Che and Xi Xi left.
Li Che held Xi Xi's small hand, and the father and daughter duo, one large and one small, disappeared into the dark alleys of Thunder Listening Lane as the night deepened.
The dog, panting, felt that his dog life had lost its joy and lay down on the ground, yawning and falling into a deep sleep.
The boss watched until their figures completely disappeared.
Only then did he exhale, take out his tobacco pouch, pinch a small amount of tobacco, roll it into a cigarette, and light it with a match.
The burning cigarette crackled with a hissing sound.
The smoke was hazy, and the moonlight was cold.
The dim yellow light of the small shop seemed to illuminate the endless darkness with a faint glow.
...
...
The tragic state of the Su Family did not affect the Heavenly Origin Dao City.
The vast city was densely populated and operated in an orderly manner.
However, Huang Jian Jiu's night raid on the Su Family, slaughtering hundreds of their disciples, and beheading Su Wenxi, the Martial Saint and head of the Su Family, while escaping unscathed, swept through the streets and alleys, taverns, and teahouses like a storm.
The news spread like wildfire in the martial world, and almost everyone who had come to Heavenly Origin Dao City from outside couldn't help but inquire about it.
After hearing the story, they couldn't help but applaud and shout, "Huang Jian Saint" in admiration.
However, they dared not be too presumptuous, as the Su Family was still the first noble family in Heavenly Origin Dao City. Even with the death of a Martial Saint and the slaughter of hundreds of disciples, their foundation was still beyond the reach of these martial artists.
But this didn't stop them from cheering. Many had heard of the Su Family's reputation in the martial world.
It was rumored that female martial artists who came to Heavenly Origin Dao City would eventually end up in the Su Family's compound, which made many martial artists extremely resentful.
Heavenly Origin Dao City.
Dao Lord Manor.
The Dragon Queen Consort, dressed in luxurious skirts and robes, sat in the leisure pavilion, holding a handful of fish bait and scattering it into the flowing wine pool, attracting countless fish to gather and splash their tails, competing for food.
Not far away, Little Dragon Lady Ao Qingqing was perfecting her martial arts under the guidance of Young Dao Master Yue Wei Zheng.
Her powerful physical body and horizontal tempering impressed Young Dao Master Yue Wei Zheng.
"Indeed, the East Sea Dragon Deity clan possesses an innate talent for refining their physical bodies, and it's truly remarkable. At such a young age, Qingqing's physical body refinement is likely no weaker than the later stages of the Grand Master realm. With her innate divine strength and the power of the Dragon Deity..."
"Even Yang Yi, who is ranked second on the Dragonlet Chart of the Heavenly Origin Sect, is known for his innate divine strength, capable of pulling the thousand-catty divine bow. Yet, he would still struggle to match Qingqing in a contest of strength."
Young Dao Master Yue Wei Zheng praised.
"The Great Master Lu Tai Bai, the sect master of the Heavenly Origin Sect, teaches without discrimination. It's highly likely that Qingqing will become his last personal disciple."
A smile appeared on Ao Qingqing's youthful face.
The Queen Consort, having finished scattering the bait, clapped her hands. Her dull and lifeless eyes lit up slightly upon hearing the words of the Young Dao Master.
Ao Qingqing... She was her last hope in the Dao City.
Originally, she had stayed at the Hope Spring Tower, using herself as bait to attract the attention of the Underworld and have them kill her.
However, when she learned that the Underworld had joined forces with Huang Jian Jiu to kill Su Wenxi, the Martial Saint of the Su family, her plan to pretend to be heavily injured and fish for the Bull Demon was immediately abandoned.
She moved back to the Dao Lord Manor, feeling suffocated in her heart.
The power of the Underworld...
Unknowingly, it seemed to have grown stronger beyond her imagination.
Su Wenxi was restrained by the Underworld, giving Huang Jian Jiu the opportunity to massacre the Su family's disciples...
And the fact that the Underworld could restrain Su Wenxi meant that they possessed combat power capable of rivaling a Martial Saint.
Taking a deep breath and clapping her hands, she walked forward gracefully.
Her eyes revealed a hint of sternness.
At this moment, all her hopes were pinned on Ao Qingqing.
She knew that the stinky kid Li Nuanxi had a close relationship with the Bull Demon of the Underworld, and it was because of her that her son, Ji Haihui, had died. The Divine Talisman Sage, the wife of the sect master, had suppressed her and caused the death of You Liqing. Now, that little wretch was preparing for the sect master's personal disciple assessment.
Therefore, she wanted Ao Qingqing to successfully secure the spot in the sect master's personal disciple assessment, preventing Li Nuanxi from becoming a personal disciple.
Only then would her heart's hatred be avenged.
Once she returned to Jizhou, she would inform Ji Mo Li of the situation and let him handle it. That little wretch would surely get her comeuppance!
As for Ao Qingqing becoming a personal disciple of the Great Master, the Queen Consort had some confidence in her heart.
She knew that Lu Tai Bai, the sect master of the Heavenly Origin Sect, ranked fifth on the Great Master List, was famous for teaching without discrimination.
Even barbarians from Dali could become his disciples, so the fairness of his personal disciple assessment could be trusted.
Even if Li Nuanxi had managed to curry favor with the wife of the sect master, it was unlikely that Lu Tai Bai would take her as a disciple.
If Lu Tai Bai's carefully arranged assessment were to end with someone becoming a disciple through backdoor connections, his reputation would likely plummet.
