Chapter 365: The Cursed Daughter of Nether Lotus, Slaughtering Gods for Her (Part 1)
Chapter 365: The Cursed Daughter of Nether Lotus, Slaughtering Gods for Her (Part 1)
Are gods truly immortal?
These temple deities, however, were already dead.
In Li Che's eyes, the so-called immortality was merely a matter of insufficient strength and means.
Fang Shangzhen, Yue Taofu, Lu Tai Bai, and others were indeed powerful. Together, they could batter the Golden King Pagoda Strange Temple deity of the Four Sacred Palaces rank, causing it to crack and nearly shatter.
In fact, they probably held back a little, as Li Che knew that temple deities could be defeated!
Back in Heavenly Origin City, when Li Che invited the Dog Lord to intervene, the Dog Lord had simply swiped with his claw, instantly melting the Golden King Pagoda Strange Temple deity of Heavenly Origin City into a pool of golden liquid.
At that time, the temple deity was considered dead.
The Enigmatic Temple City almost collapsed.
Li Che could sense that the Dog Lord had held back, not completely eradicating the temple deity. Otherwise, there might have been unpleasant consequences and targeting from powerful beings.
After all, the Dog Lord had only used one claw.
Even though there was a difference in rank between the Golden King Pagoda Strange Temple in the Divine Capital and the one in Heavenly Origin City...
For the Dog Lord, it was probably just a matter of using one more claw.
His palm slowly caressed the Bull Demon mask, and golden flames ignited in his eyes, melting the air with their scorching heat.
An intense killing intent surged.
The Seven Treasures Bodhimanda Wishful Golden King Strange Temple deity had plotted against the Eight-Armed Wrathful Third Prince of the Nether Lotus Temple...
Perhaps this was due to differences in the Enigmatic Abyss, targeting from the divine camp.
But...
What did that have to do with his daughter?
Why involve his daughter?
Xixi was only three or four years old when she accepted the inheritance of the Third Prince's Enigmatic Temple. Such a young child, what wrong could she have done to deserve this suffering?
Therefore, Li Che felt an intense fury towards the Seven Treasures Bodhimanda Wishful Golden King deity. Of course, he was also concerned that this temple deity might have some hidden tricks that could affect the Nether Lotus Fire within Xixi.
If the Nether Lotus Fire within Xixi were triggered prematurely, without the suppression of the Third Prince's Divine Will, it would be a serious problem.
Although this possibility was minuscule, Li Che dared not take the risk.
This was why, after arriving in the Divine Capital, he did not maintain a low profile. He needed to build connections, using their power to strengthen his public influence.
Upon reaching the Divine Capital, he first displayed his divine cultivation, reaching the Divine Embryo Realm. Then, at the pre-banquet of the Peach Blossom Banquet, he held nothing back, crushing all opponents to quickly secure his qualification for the main banquet.
All of this was to gain fame.
Originally, he intended to use this fame to enter the Seven Treasures Bodhimanda Wishful Golden King Pagoda Strange Temple.
However, due to a twist of fate, he participated in the Celestial Observatory's special guest advisor examination, gaining the approval of the Grand Inspector. All problems were thus resolved.
As long as he could enter the Seven Treasures Bodhimanda Wishful Golden King Pagoda Strange Temple and leave behind the Thunderbolt Chess Piece, he would have a chance to eliminate this temple deity.
Li Che had been diligently accumulating connections, both living and deceased.
Glancing at Xixi, who was meditating in her cultivation room, he saw her determination to become stronger.
Xixi was aware of her situation, but she didn't want to be a burden to her father. She was determined to grow stronger.
She knew that if she became powerful enough, she could suppress all calamities. The Nether Lotus Fire would no longer be a threat to her.
Li Che witnessed Xixi's efforts and stubbornness.
His eyes, once filled with killing intent, softened.
"I only want to watch you grow up safely..."
"So, anyone who dares to stand in your way... is my enemy, and I'll kill them!"
This had always been Li Che's determination.
From Thunderbolt City...
Until now.
Buzz—
His five fingers clenched into a fist, and a white Thunderbolt Chess Piece appeared in his palm.
In an instant, Li Che disappeared.
...
...
Boom—
The Deceptive Abyss churned, and the Enigmatic Mist surged, shrouding the Grand Canal's surface in the dim night.
Numerous boats sped across the water, almost completely sealing off the area around the Deceptive Abyss, forming an impenetrable blockade.
Powerful auras intertwined, and the air vibrated with the roar of vigorous blood.
The once calm river now undulated, its surface rippling with turbulent waves.)
Hua Manlou stood on a boat, his robe fluttering. He held a paper fan, his expression calm and relaxed.
Beside him was Wang Kui, wearing the Governor's robe of the Temple Guarding Office, his nose adorned with a golden ring.
Wang Kui's hands were clasped behind his back, and his red hair stood out in the night.)
"Wow, inviting two great deities, two top-tier experts, to directly beat up a Four Sacred Palaces rank temple deity of the Strange Temple..."
"This has never happened before."
Wang Kui couldn't help but smile, basking in the night.
Lu Tai Bai, the leader of the Heavenly Origin Divine Sect, needed no introduction. As a Half-Saint of Divine Sculpture, Li Che, who had passed the Celestial Observatory's special guest advisor examination, was more than capable of assisting him.
But why did Shi Jian of the True Martial Sect choose to intervene? This puzzled Wang Kui.
Although temple deities were already dead, they didn't die within the Deceptive Abyss. Once a cultivator achieves the Divine Tribulation and enters the Deceptive Abyss, they will eventually have to deal with these temple deities.
Even if a cultivator destroys the Strange Temple and obliterates the temple deity in the mortal world, the deity's divine nature will still contaminate their body.
It was like a bone-deep curse.
When cultivators break through the Divine Tribulation and reach the Martial God Realm, they enter the Deceptive Abyss to avoid the Three Disasters and Nine Tribulations.
Perhaps they would face the reckoning of the Gods' camp.
So, beating up a Temple Deity is satisfying, but it's a thankless task.
"There's also Fang Shangzhen from the Celestial Observatory and Yue Taofu..." Fang Shangzhen is from the only eternal aristocratic family in Jiangnan Dao, a scholarly family, and a descendant of the Confucian Saint."
"Fang Han Shu's elder sister..."
Wang Kui's eyes narrowed as he mentioned Fang Han Shu.
"However, this time, the Seven Treasure Bodhimanda Wishful Golden King Pagoda's Enigmatic Temple Temple Deity got beaten up, which saved us a lot of trouble."
"The Temple Deity is weak, and the Deceptive Abyss is also weak. It shouldn't show any signs of rioting for a long time."
"You and I are stationed here, keeping an eye on things for a few days. Once we confirm that there are no signs of riots in the Deceptive Abyss, we can reduce the number of people guarding this Enigmatic Temple and deploy some manpower to the Peach Blossom Banquet, which will officially start soon."
Wang Kui said.
Upon hearing this, Hua Manlou's face turned slightly embarrassed.
"We have to keep an eye on it for several days?"
"Can we do it on a flower boat?"
Hua Manlou asked sincerely.
"Get lost!"
Wang Kui glared at Hua Manlou. Everything has to be on a flower boat! What does a flower boat have to do with a flower boat!
"Hehe, Brother Wang, you don't understand the beauty of a flower boat. They are light and graceful, and they are professionals at serving others. But Brother Wang, you have a wife, so you don't understand the allure of flower boats."
Hua Manlou couldn't help but open his paper fan.
Wang Kui's wife was a princess from a vassal state, known as the Iron Rakshasa throughout the Divine Capital.
Many people in the Temple Guarding Office knew that this Governor Wang Kui was famous for being henpecked.
But Wang Kui didn't bother to pay attention to him. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the Deceptive Abyss shrouded in swirling Enigmatic Mist.
For some reason...
Wang Kui always had a vague sense of unease in his heart.
But no matter how he tried to figure it out, he couldn't understand where this unease was coming from.
...
...
Crackle—
Above the dome of heaven, lightning flashed, as if a snake was weaving through the heavens and earth.
On the Grand Canal, the waves rose, and the wind and water were restless.
Inside the Deceptive Abyss, completely sealed off by the Temple Enforcers, it was as if the air was twisting, and slowly, a tall and sturdy figure appeared before the dilapidated Golden Temple.
The cracks on the ground resembled a spider's web, and hot steam uncontrollably rose from them.
Crackle.
A broken piece of stone was crushed into powder under a footstep.
Li Che's jet-black and vigorous hair danced in the wind as he wore a cute and adorable mask. In his eyes, a terrifying divine light raged and intertwined, and killing intent boiled.
His gaze fell on the closed doors of the temple, and through the cracks, he saw the Golden King Pagoda Temple Deity slowly repairing the cracks within the Enigmatic Temple.)
It was like a dog licking its wounds behind closed doors.
Whoosh—
The howling wind blew fiercely, and the turbulent flow seemed to sense something. The Enigmatic Temple began to tremble slightly.
It was as if countless golden rays of light were squeezing out from the cracks, pouring down and scattering!
The terrifying pressure of the Temple Deity's rank and the oppressive aura unique to the Four Sacred Palaces Temple Deity unleashed a terrifying sense of oppression.
Under the mask, Li Che's eyes looked at the Golden Temple indifferently.
He clenched his fist, and in an instant, a dazzling golden light flashed, revealing the Mindful Golden Iron Spear. Additionally, in his left hand, there was a faint glint of a blade.
The Three-Pronged Double-Edged Blade hidden in his left hand, fused with his left arm, emitted a brilliant and vibrating blade hum.
These two divine weapons seemed to sense Li Che's overwhelming killing intent.
As he reached the entrance, he kicked the tightly closed doors of the Golden Temple.
An invisible wave of air exploded the moment his foot landed, spreading out in all directions!
Bang—!
The golden doors were instantly shattered by Li Che's kick!
Li Che's body moved, and his muscles swelled and expanded like a balloon being inflated!
Golden blood surged like a mist, exploding around him, forming a terrifying field, like a terrifying deity emerging from a divine golden smoke.
Sizzle—
Arcs of lightning danced, and bolt after bolt of dark golden lightning fell, coiling around Li Che like a dragon.
Celestial Thunder Armor.
Prison Thunder Net!
Boom—!!!
Within the Golden Temple, the Golden King, covered in cracks, glared with anger. From the rough cracks, a mighty Temple Deity Divinity flowed, transforming into a terrifying storm!
It was as if a divine being stood there, roaring and intimidating all evil demons!
The terrifying pressure unique to the Four Sacred Palaces Temple Deity, like a collapsing mountain, descended upon Li Che.
"You... finally came..."
Suddenly, a deep voice echoed throughout the Golden Temple.
Li Che's eyes turned cold, and with the activation of the 'Climbing the Tower' state, he completely discarded his emotions, becoming an emotionless killing machine.
"You guessed right..."
The cracked Golden King, holding the pagoda, looked down at Li Che.
Li Che's eyes narrowed slightly.
He vaguely sensed that something was amiss.
This Golden King... seemed to know that he would come?
Was it plotting something?!
No, Li Che's thoughts turned, and he seemed to understand something.
The Golden Light Mansion and the Seven Treasure Bodhimanda Wishful Golden King Pagoda Enigmatic Temple in the Heavenly Origin City had been destroyed...
The Temple Deity of this Four Sacred Palaces Enigmatic Temple should have sensed it too.
Plus, being beaten up for no reason...
So, it guessed the hidden mastermind.
This mastermind... wanted to kill it!
However, Li Che paid no heed to the Golden King's words. His body swayed, and behind him, one divine seed after another exploded, six in total, like six blazing suns!
The dazzling light was blindingly bright!
After detonating the divine seeds, Li Che's blood essence soared, breaking through the limits of the human body, shattering the chains binding him!
His spine bulged, and with each tremor, it was like a raging dragon roaring!
The mighty blood, like molten mercury, surged through his veins!
Bang—!!!
With a stomp of his foot, the cracked temple floor exploded again, sinking deeper. Countless stones shot into the air, only to be instantly melted by the hot blood!
As Li Che moved, he snapped his fingers.
A black chess piece appeared out of thin air, floating in mid-air. It seemed to swell and distort, transforming into a figure of a Divine Sculpture.
"The Nether Lotus Daughter... has been born. That's the power of the curse, the rule of fate. The Gods won't allow the Nether Lotus Daughter to revive again. You can't stop it, you can't block it..."
The deep voice was like a divine whisper, echoing within the entire Golden King Enigmatic Temple.
It was as if the Golden King himself was speaking in a low tone.
Boom! The Golden King Temple Deity also moved, slamming down a palm with radiant Buddha light and swirling gold. The palm expanded, and intense light and heat burst forth from within!
Boom! Li Che, with his towering and robust physique like a mountain, pushed forward with a punch, unleashing a Dragon Roar. The Dragon Elephant, empowered by the Dragon Elephant Vajra Fruit, trampled down, fiercely colliding with the Golden King's palm! The terrifying explosion unleashed countless intertwining streams of light, wreaking havoc in all directions.
The Dragon entwined the Elephant, and the golden light radiated brilliantly, combining with the Dragon Elephant's heavenly aura to enhance its formidable might. The overwhelming force was almost heaven-shattering and earth-crushing! The Golden King Temple Deity, already battered by numerous top-tier experts and Great Deity List members, had its palm directly shattered by Li Che's punch!
The dazzling golden light instantly exploded, and Li Che transformed into a Bull Demon. His hair turned golden, cascading down to his waist, swaying wildly. His muscles tensed, and his veins, skin, and bones seemed to vibrate intensely.
Around him, the black chess pieces twisted and expanded, morphing into powerful figures that loomed.
Yue Huang Long appeared, igniting his fat, summoning the Gate of the Netherworld, and gaining the power of the top-tier experts.
On the other side, Huang Mei's Buddha light shone, his palms pressed together, and the Vajra manifestation emerged, expanding and attacking the Golden King.
As for Han Si Xi, the moment he appeared, this old monk didn't waste any words, unleashing his full strength. His purple robe fluttered, and his killing intent soared.
Compared to the lineup of Lu Tai Bai, Fang Shangzhen, and others, this group was indeed slightly weaker.
But the Golden King was also far from his peak!
Li Che gripped the Mindful Golden King Iron Rod in his hand and strode forward, following the path of the Golden King's enormous arm.
The air in front of him exploded under the impact!
With each step, the Golden King Temple Deity's golden arm would dent and collapse, covered in countless cracks. It was as if new cracks were being carved on the surface of a cracked porcelain vase. And with each step, Li Che's aura continued to rise, becoming increasingly terrifying.
