Chapter 285: Who Says We Can't Live for Ten Thousand Years, Carving Ordinary Wood, Ten Thousand Carvings, Pilgrimage to the Divine Wood 【Seeking Monthly Votes】 (Part 1)
A Death Hunter...
It's actually you?!
Li Che's movements froze, and his expression became incredibly vivid, not knowing what to say.
Lu Tai Bai's voice transmission entered his ears, and only Li Che could hear it. He learned of Lu Tai Bai's part-time identity.
No wonder the Sect Leader could be so certain that a Death Hunter wouldn't harm Xi Xi.
Li Che couldn't help but feel amused and exasperated.
Li Che didn't know much about the Hunter God Pavilion, only that it had numerous assassins and was a highly profit-oriented force.
As long as the price was right and the interests were enticing enough to move the assassins, even Constellation Killers comparable to Martial Saint Spirit Embryo Cultivators could be hired.
Take Huang Jian Jiu, for example. He spent all his wealth to invite a Constellation Killer to stop Su Dao Ling, a Demi-Saint Divine Talisman Master of the Su family.
The assassin accepted the resources and seriously carried out the task, successfully blocking Su Dao Ling.
Otherwise, when a Spirit Embryo Cultivator returned, Huang Jian Jiu would have had a hard time going on a killing spree, even if he had broken through the Martial Saint's sword. It would have been difficult to kill Su Wenxi.
Lu Tai Bai looked at Li Che with a smile that wasn't quite a smile and poured himself a drink, taking a sip.
"The Hunter God Pavilion is a complex organization. They have their own trained assassins, but they also invite external assassins to join them... After all, where there are people, there will be those seeking resources. The higher the cultivation, the more difficult it is to find what they need, and even if they do, the cost is enormous."
"The Hunter God Pavilion is a convenient place. By completing tasks for clients, assassins can obtain the resources they need, which is very convenient."
Lu Tai Bai explained.
"Normally, there shouldn't be more than two Death Hunters in a Dao City. Inviting powerful cultivators to become Death Hunters also requires resources. Even if a Death Hunter does nothing, they still receive income."
Lu Tai Bai transmitted his voice to Li Che, explaining the situation.
Perhaps to reassure Li Che, he elaborated on the matter of Death Hunters.
"Therefore, unless a Death Hunter from another Dao City enters Heavenly Origin Dao City, there won't be a situation where a Death Hunter targets Xi Xi."
"Moreover, the third place on the Reward List... I really don't think much of it."
Lu Tai Bai chuckled as he transmitted his voice.
"What? You don't think a Four Virtues Divine Crystal is worth it?" Li Che gasped.
"If it were a top-grade Four Virtues Divine Crystal, it might be enough to tempt a Death Hunter to take action... But a lower-grade one is not enough."
Lu Tai Bai's transmitted voice was calm, showing little desire for a lower-grade Four Virtues Divine Crystal.
Li Che fell silent. Indeed...
It was his strength that determined his perspective.
"The assassins of the Hunter God Pavilion don't have much connection with each other, and they are all quite cold to each other. If this Death Hunter doesn't take action, it doesn't mean that other Constellation Killers won't."
"Although I am a Death Hunter, I am not the master of the Hunter God Pavilion. In fact, even the master of the Hunter God Pavilion cannot control these assassins..."
"The overall strength of the Hunter God Pavilion is indeed formidable, but it is not something to be feared."
"The master of the Hunter God Pavilion in Heavenly Origin Dao City is very powerful, and his identity is also mysterious. Until now, we still haven't figured out his true identity..."
Lu Tai Bai took a sip from his cup, clicked his tongue, and continued transmitting his voice.
"Sect Leader... What if a Hunter God Pavilion assassin takes action and I accidentally kill them... Will it affect you?"
Li Che quickly poured himself a drink.
Lu Tai Bai: "Kill, just kill, kill as you please..."
"Assassins don't know each other's true identities. They are all strangers."
"The star masks of Constellation Killers are made by the master of the Hunter God Pavilion. They can alter and conceal their auras, making it impossible for even me to see through them..."
"Therefore, there is no trust among assassins. Even if they are allies this time, they might stab each other in the back next time."
"If you can kill, then kill."
"Becoming an assassin means being prepared for death."
Lu Tai Bai spoke indifferently: "Perhaps one day, I too will die during an assassination."
"Death Hunter..."
"What do you think a Death Hunter is?"
His indifferent words carried a hint of coldness towards life.
Li Che's body trembled.
Death Hunter... Could it be that their true specialty is assassinating the princes of the Dajing Dynasty?
This master or grandmaster of the Hunter God Pavilion...
A professional rebel?!
Li Che's eyes flashed, and his heart stirred slightly, feeling that... this was interesting.
"What? Are you interested? Do you want me to introduce you to the Hunter God Pavilion so you can become an assassin and have some fun? You can occasionally relax and earn some extra money." Lu Tai Bai looked at Li Che and transmitted his voice.
Introducing an assassin as a Death Hunter was quite easy.
"Forget it, forget it. I'm just a small Qi and Blood Master. My Divine Nature has barely entered the Divine Image. I don't have much experience in fighting others... I'm afraid I might be killed instead."
Li Che smiled and declined.
Lu Tai Bai looked at Li Che with a smile that wasn't quite a smile...
An innocent Divine Crane Master? Who would believe that?
Lu Tai Bai didn't believe it. He suspected that Li Che must have some connection with the Netherworld, given the Netherworld's reputation for killing without batting an eye. How could you, Li Che, be such an innocent person?
"Don't worry. Xi Xi is safe with me. Even if a Death Hunter from another Dao City comes, I can stop them."
Lu Tai Bai didn't insist. He smiled and spoke confidently.
With Lu Tai Bai and the Sect Lady Xuan Qi Sha, a Demi-Saint Divine Talisman Master, as the strongest couple protecting Xi Xi... Li Che's heart was indeed much more at ease.
"Then please take care of Xi Xi." Li Che smiled and spoke, this time without transmitting his voice.
Lu Tai Bai was in a good mood, eating and drinking.
After the meal, Li Che and Zhang Ya chatted with Xi Xi for a while and played before bidding farewell.
"Dad and Mom, don't worry. Xi Xi will become very strong and will be able to protect you in the future!"
Xi Xi looked at Li Che and Zhang Ya, who were holding an oil-paper umbrella and leaving the mountain path.
With his hands on his hips, he called out loudly, his belly slightly protruding.
Spring rain poured down, and the surroundings were filled with vibrant flowers and lush greenery.
Li Che and Zhang Ya turned back, looking at Xi Xi, and smiled warmly, waving goodbye.
Jin Taisui stood beside Xi Xi, holding an oil-paper umbrella for her, feeling a bit dazed.
Since childhood, he had been abandoned by his parents on Wu Shen Mountain and then sent to the Mysterious Temple for training...
He had no idea what family love was.
Following Xi Xi, he seemed to see many things he had never experienced before.
Having parents like Zhang Ya and Li Che, Xi Xi was so happy.
Jin Taisui felt a twinge of envy in his heart.
Xi Xi stood on her tiptoes, watching her parents' figures disappear into the misty mountain path shrouded in rain, and she exhaled a long breath, patting her chest.
"Xi Xi, the Great Emperor, keep it up!"
"Little Jinzi, let's go! Keep practicing! We must work hard today too!"
Xi Xi turned around and walked away with quick, small steps.
Hearing this, Jin Taisui was momentarily stunned: "Oh, ah... Okay."
Xi Xi returned to the large courtyard and, under the guidance of Lu Tai Bai, continued to grip the Nether Lotus Yang Divine Sword and practice the sword techniques passed down by Lu Tai Bai.
Xi Xi, the Great Emperor, was working hard!
...
...
Li Che and Zhang Ya strolled along the mountain path in the rain, enjoying the scenery within the Heavenly Origin Sect's mountain gate.
Occasionally, they could see the Mysterious Temple nestled among the mountains, with a few scattered Sect disciples preparing to venture into the Mystic Tower.
"Elder Li."
The disciples greeted Li Che from a distance with respect and politeness.
After all, Li Che was an elder of Divine Crane Ridge, and this elder... was even more popular than the inner sect elders. After all, the disciples cultivated their divine nature, and they all needed the assistance of the divine crane's essence.
Li Che nodded gently and responded before continuing his walk with Zhang Ya.
Occasionally accompanying his wife for a walk in the rain, breathing in the fresh air, and appreciating the beauty of nature was quite interesting.
Zhang Ya held Li Che's arm tightly the whole way, her cheek even pressed against his arm. From time to time, she would lift her head and look at her husband, her eyes sparkling.
"Husband, let's always be like this, until we grow old. When we are old, we can still walk together in the mountains, watching the rain fall, the flowers bloom, and the misty clouds!"
"Yes."
Li Che smiled.
"Then promise me, let's pinky swear!" Zhang Ya's big eyes sparkled, and she tugged at the wet strands of hair that had stuck to her forehead, speaking earnestly.
"Why are you still acting like Xi Xi, making pinky promises like a child..." Li Che chuckled, but he didn't refuse.
He extended his hand, and their pinky fingers intertwined.
The mountains were filled with blooming flowers, and even the spring rain seemed to be more cheerful.
The couple gently shook their intertwined fingers.
"Pinky swear, or I'll hang myself! A hundred years, no, a million years, no changing!"
Li Che's voice was gentle.
Zhang Ya immediately pursed her lips and giggled softly.
"Husband, who can live for a million years..."
Li Che extended his hand, and his long fingers plucked a raindrop.
His gaze deepened, and he became lost in thought.
"Who says... we can't live for a million years?"
...
...
Upon returning to the Elder's Courtyard in the Disciple City, Zhang Ya immediately ran to Jiao Shao Qiu's courtyard. She wanted to work hard on her cultivation.
After all, Zhang Ya was well aware of Xi Xi and her husband Li Che's innate talents. If she couldn't keep up with their progress, she would gradually grow old.
If she didn't put in the effort, her husband would only be able to walk with another woman, admiring the rain and the misty scenery in the mountains.
Just thinking about it made Zhang Ya's determination soar, and her eyes seemed to be on fire! She, Zhang Ya, had to work hard!
"Elder Jiao, please teach me cultivation!"
Zhang Ya stood straight like a pole bent at a ninety-degree angle, watching Jiao Shao Qiu sitting under the eaves, instructing the children in the courtyard.
After a moment, Jiao Shao Qiu stroked his beard and smiled, understanding Zhang Ya's thoughts.
"Then from now on, you can practice with the children."
Although Zhang Ya held the title of Honorary Elder, it was merely a name, and she enjoyed the benefits. It was only because of her daughter's excellence that Zhang Ya, as a mother, received such benefits.
In reality, Zhang Ya's cultivation was not that impressive.
For Jiao Shao Qiu to teach the current Zhang Ya was more than enough.
"Then... I'll trouble you, Elder Jiao." Li Che bowed respectfully, his ink-black robe fluttering, and he smiled gently.
Jiao Shao Qiu stroked his beard and smiled: "What trouble... I can't teach Xi Xi anymore. Teaching her mother is the same."
"Hahaha, unfortunately, you, young man, can live comfortably just by relying on your divine carving technique. I can't teach you anything."
Jiao Shao Qiu and Li Che chatted for a while in the courtyard.
"I heard that tomorrow is the deadline for your bet with the Sect Lady. Are you confident?" Jiao Shao Qiu asked, watching Li Che pouring water into a tea pot over a charcoal stove.
"It's worth a try. It won't be a loss."
"The bet between me and the Sect Lady isn't too harsh."
"The Sect Lady is also Xi Xi's teacher. Even if I lose the bet, I'll just carve some divine nature wood carvings for her, and it'll be good practice. It's not a loss."
"But if I win, the meaning will be different."
Li Che's lips curved into a gentle smile, making others feel as if they were bathed in spring breeze.
Jiao Shao Qiu naturally understood the meaning behind Li Che's words. The Heavenly Origin Sect had lacked a Divine Crane Demi-Saint for too long, and the divine carving business had been thoroughly suppressed by the Little Lingyin Temple of Xiling Dao.
If there was one more Divine Crane Demi-Saint, it would be a relief.
Looking at the gentle and refined Li Che, Jiao Shao Qiu felt a surge of emotion. No wonder he had given birth to Xi Xi, a child with such extraordinary talent. The more he looked at Li Che, the more extraordinary he seemed.
After watching Zhang Ya practice for a while, Li Che bid farewell and left, leaving Nie Yang behind.
Upon returning to the Elder's Court, Li Qingshan accompanied Mu Granny, admiring the gentle and vibrant spring rain under the eaves.
After greeting the two, Li Che entered the study.
With a clench of his five fingers, Li Che's entire body shifted, reappearing in the Independent Workshop within Thunder Listening Lane.
Spring rain drifted, with droplets forming chains.
From high above, he descended like an arrow, and before even landing in the courtyard, his scorching blood energy instantly evaporated the moisture, turning it into white, misty heat that swirled.
The damp courtyard was filled with billowing white fog.
"Huff—"
"Suck—"
With each breath, he inhaled like a whale, practicing divine breathing.
The courtyard was filled with white mist that rippled and surged like waves crashing against the shore.
Powerful divine essence slowly emerged, almost filling every corner of the courtyard.
"Fifteen Golden Cores..."
"Seven Emotions and Six Desires, Emulating Heaven and Earth, Extermination Evil Pure Yang!"
Li Che's eyes opened and closed, and his gaze was filled with divine brilliance.
The Heaven and Earth Emulating Divine Enlightenment True Ape Technique, one of the Three Purities Schools, had the most majestic Golden Cores, with the strongest pressure and cultivation level.
N
The Four Virtues Golden Cores were overall weaker than the Three Purities Golden Cores.
The Seven Emotions Golden Cores surrounded the Heaven and Earth Emulating Golden Cores, and the Six Desires Golden Cores were like six divine blades encircling the Extermination Evil Pure Yang Golden Core!
It was extremely extraordinary and profound.
Following a unique rhythm, it seemed to conceal a small universe.
"My Golden Core... is very different from ordinary divine essence cultivators. Even the Embryonic Breath Transformation Realm Golden Cores may pale in comparison to mine."
"Actually, I can already be considered a Spirit Embryo Cultivator."
"Although my Nascent Soul has not transformed into the Spirit Embryo Cultivator's Heaven-Earth Soul, and I cannot borrow the power of heaven and earth for my use, nor have I broken through the Golden Core to condense the Divine Transformation True Embryo, there is still a slight gap in the quality of my divine essence..."
"But I have many Golden Cores, and although the quality is lacking, the quantity compensates... Moreover, with the combined quantity of the Three Purities and Four Virtues Golden Cores, and the Seven Emotions and Six Desires Golden Cores overlapping, there are no flaws or leaks... It's like a Divine Talisman Array combination."
"Although I don't have the Heaven-Earth Soul, and the pressure of my cultivation level is not as strong as a Spirit Embryo Cultivator, but... with fifteen Golden Cores releasing simultaneously without succumbing to pressure, and with the support and condensation of the Celestial Earth Chessboard!"
An unconventional Spirit Embryo Cultivator...
Li Che felt that he barely qualified.
"As for divine essence secret techniques..."
Li Che's eyes flashed, and the most powerful method of a Spirit Embryo Cultivator was naturally divine essence secret techniques. Combined with secret techniques and a large amount of divine essence power, they could achieve powerful bombardments.
Li Che understood that divine essence cultivators were essentially Lawgivers, and martial men were pure martial warriors.
Giving Lawgivers the opportunity to display secret techniques was extremely terrifying.
"I don't have many divine essence secret techniques... However, I have the Mystic Technique, Ten Thousand Phenomena Seal, which, when combined with Tang's Automaton Secret Technique and the Nine Gods of Ten Thousand Phenomena Seal, can also achieve the effect of divine essence secret techniques."
Li Che's lips curved upwards, feeling good.
"With the two Ten Thousand Phenomena Seals infused with divine essence power, it becomes an extremely powerful killing technique..."
Li Che stood up.
His mud pill between his eyebrows trembled, and the Ten Thousand Phenomena Seal was activated. The next moment, the divine essence in his forehead was frantically drawn out.
Two dazzling Golden Cores, one black and one white, appeared, followed by thirteen small Golden Cores.
At the same time.
The black and white divine auras above the two Golden Cores seemed to be extracted.
