Chapter 378: Father's Glory is Xi Xi's Glory, the Kunlun Mirror of the Three Pure Heavenly Origin Sun (Part 2)
"
That...
The Great Jing Royal Family had spent centuries searching for a rare divine armament in the Xi Wangmu's Mysterious Temple, one of the Three Pure Ones' Mysterious Temples, but they had never found it! The Emperor's golden yellow robe fluttered in the wind.
His gaze deepened, as if gazing into a black hole.
"The Kunlun Mirror."
...
...
Rustling, rustling—
The misty energy intertwined and slowly spread out.
Li Che's eyebrows twitched slightly, and the Heaven-Earth Chessboard was retracted. His sleeves fluttered as he stood tall.
As if pushed by an invisible force, the peach trees seemed to propel him, and he drifted into the Five Thousand-Year Peach Orchard.
"He even announced it to everyone... This can't be hidden anymore."
Li Che's eyebrows furrowed slightly, then relaxed.
Originally, Li Che had swiftly defeated his opponents without giving them a chance to react, taking their peaches and the Qiankun Jade.
Some of the heroes didn't even realize that Li Che was the one who had attacked them.
But with the announcement of his ascension, those heroes who had been caught off guard now likely guessed Li Che's identity.
However, it was no big deal.
Even without the element of surprise, Li Che had defeated them fairly with his own strength. They lost even faster, and Li Che merely maintained their dignity.
Looking around, Li Che could sense that the energy in the entire Peach Orchard had become denser. The rich aroma of the peaches was almost tangible.
Li Che took a deep breath and felt a surge of energy rolling towards him.
"What a great place!"
"This place is not only excellent for cultivating divine energy but also a perfect treasure land for martial arts training!"
Li Che's eyes brightened, and his gaze scanned the peach trees, which were significantly taller than those in the Thousand-Year Peach Orchard.
The originally ten-zhang-high peach trees suddenly soared to a hundred zhang, their branches and leaves lush and deep green, filled with surging power.
Li Che wanted to look back at the Thousand-Year Peach Orchard, but it was as if his path back was completely severed, unable to turn back.
He couldn't see a single tree from the Thousand-Year Peach Orchard, as if he were in a different realm.
Li Che's eyebrows lifted slightly.
He raised his hand and tapped his forehead.
Buzzing—
The Heaven-Earth Chessboard was summoned again, with Li Che at the center, the vertical and horizontal lines piercing the sky, and a net spreading above the peach trees, almost blocking out the sunlight within the orchard.
The peach trees in the Five Thousand-Year Peach Orchard were significantly more numerous than those in the Thousand-Year Peach Orchard.
Buzzing—
A wave of oppressive energy rippled towards Li Che.
Suddenly, a thunderous voice exploded in Li Che's ears!
"Save me...!"
"Save me—!!!"
The voice thundered in his ears, loud and clear.
Li Che's hair stood on end.
Faintly, it was as if his very being was shaken.
"Indeed... it's getting closer! Much closer!"
Li Che's eyes shone brightly, becoming increasingly certain that the sound was coming from deeper within the Peach Blossom Grove.
The Five Thousand Year Peach Orchard wasn't deep enough! However, to advance to the next round of the Peach Orchard Competition, Li Che needed to gather five peaches, just like in the first round.
Currently, in the entire Five Thousand Year Peach Orchard, only Li Che was present.
Therefore, gathering five peaches was simply impossible.
"Hmm? The second round hasn't even started yet... Could there be a loophole in the rules of the Peach Competition regarding this situation?"
"Also, in the Heavenly River Curtain outside this Five Thousand Year Peach Orchard, it seems I can't be seen."
"So, can I pick a peach in advance?"
Li Che's gaze flickered.
His eyes fell upon the towering peach trees, each over a hundred zhang tall, with thick branches like coiling dragons, winding and intertwining like broad avenues.
Li Che's toes tapped the ground, causing the withered frost grass to shatter and disintegrate, propelling him forward as he darted through the dense forest.
The Heavenly-Earth Chessboard expanded, quickly sensing a Five Thousand Year Peach hanging from a peach tree.
Rustling—
As Li Che moved, the roots of the peach tree, resembling coiling dragons, began to rapidly undulate like writhing dragons, causing the tree's position to shift.
However, Li Che's focus remained on the Five Thousand Year Peach tree as sensed by the Heavenly-Earth Chessboard.
To be cautious, Li Che didn't pick the peach himself but instead curled his fingers and flicked.
The next moment, a black chess piece floated out, swelling against the wind and transforming into a figure.
It was Xue Dufu, the Binding Spirit, who hadn't appeared in a long time.
Xue Dufu had now reached the peak of the Cynosure Tri-Flower Grand Master realm.
Upon appearing, following Li Che's command, Xue Dufu's Binding Spirit rushed towards the peach tree.
Boom!!!
Suddenly!
A mountain-crushing, tsunami-like surge of demonic energy erupted, like a world-ending tide, instantly slamming into Xue Dufu.
But how could Xue Dufu, at the Grand Master realm, withstand it? He was directly blasted apart by the demonic energy, turning into black smoke and vanishing without a trace.
Li Che's ink-black robe fluttered as he looked at the giant snake that had appeared out of thin air. It was a giant snake with sharp, spiral horns on its head, its eyes like blooming flowers, and its body covered in fine scales, densely layered like a maze, seemingly startled by the sight of Xue Dufu, who had been blasted apart by the demonic energy.
"A demonic beast comparable to the Martial Sage Second Opening realm!"
Li Che smiled lightly.
Not summoning Xue Dufu again, as Xue Dufu's strength wasn't sufficient to pick peaches in the Five Thousand Year Peach Orchard.
Curling his fingers and flicking, a black chess piece instantly expanded, transforming into the fat, plump body of Yue Huanglong. Yue Huanglong appeared with a grin, his fat body resembling oil meeting fire, sizzling and popping.
The aura of a top-tier Absolute Apex burst forth from his body.
Clenching his five fingers, a vast surge of energy transformed into a terrifyingly huge hand, viciously grabbing towards the giant snake with spiral horns! The giant snake roared in terror, revealing sharp fangs.
But it was futile, as Yue Huanglong, after burning his fat, reached the top-tier Absolute Apex level of combat power, directly suppressing the giant snake!
His five plump fingers, like five divine spears, tore through the air, concentrating extreme power at their tips, causing the airflow to seem torn apart, leaving lingering traces.
Puff, puff, puff!
The five fingers, like divine spears, instantly pierced the giant snake, making it wail in agony. Five blood holes appeared on its head, and fresh blood gushed out incessantly.
After just a few rounds, this giant snake, comparable to a Martial Sage Second Opening, was brutally killed by Yue Huanglong!
Yue Huanglong, wearing a mask, obsequiously held the giant snake's corpse, blocking the flowing blood from the blood holes, and rushed to Li Che.
"Master, receive your subordinate's tribute."
Under Yue Huanglong's mask, his eyes brimmed with a silly, ingratiating smile.
Li Che didn't hesitate; the Binding Spirit was his, and there was nothing wrong with it.
After delivering the snake's corpse, Yue Huanglong landed, and his body, like a flying leaf, darted towards the Five Thousand Year Peach hanging from the tree, emitting a rolling essence and divinity.
He grabbed the peach.
However, just as Yue Huanglong was about to pluck the peach, his expression changed slightly.
It was as if a terrifyingly oppressive force had suddenly descended upon them.
It was a terrifyingly oppressive force of a higher realm!
But Yue Huanglong gritted his teeth, unafraid, and forcefully plucked the peach, which fell with a 'pat' sound, instantly picked.
"Master, the peach!"
Yue Huanglong quickly tossed the Five Thousand Year Peach to Li Che.
Then, on his fat-burning body, strange divine seeds suddenly emerged. He looked up and saw the peach tree's branches and leaves parting.
A beam of light descended at an incredible speed.
The speed was too fast!
It was as if it had truly reached the speed of light! Even with Li Che's reflexes, he had no confidence in dodging it! Even if he grasped the Flying Thunder Chess Piece and teleported, he would still be pierced by the light before the teleportation...
The speed of the light was almost comparable to the speed of light! "What is this?!"
Li Che's hairs stood on end.
But then, the light directly pierced through Xue Dufu's Binding Spirit, who had exploded with the Strange Divine Sect's power, as if a hot knife slicing through butter, leaving a smooth, clean cut.
Xue Dufu's Binding Spirit was directly destroyed! In other words...
This beam of light had the power to severely injure, or even kill, a top-tier Absolute Apex cultivator?! Li Che's expression changed slightly, revealing a hint of astonishment.
Although Yue Huanglong had used his Spirit Capture to obtain the peach, Li Che held the fruit in his hand, yet it didn't attract the attention of the divine light. Despite being the culprit behind the peach theft, Yue Huanglong paid the ultimate price, sacrificing his life for Li Che's gain.
The Five Thousand Year Black Phoenix Spirit Peach was as large as two fists, its skin a vibrant red, and its flesh a delicate white. However, its branches and leaves were all black.
Holding the peach, Li Che's heart raced with excitement. An intense attraction emanated from the fruit, continuously luring his soul.
This was the peach's inherent allure, but it had little effect on Li Che at this moment.
Li Che didn't eat the peach. After all, he was still in the midst of the Hero Competition. If he consumed the peach, he might be disqualified, and Li Che couldn't afford that.
To prevent any mishaps, Li Che pressed his fingers together like a sword, slicing through space and time, and stored the peach away.
"If I could exchange my life for the ability to pick all the peaches in the orchard..."
Li Che's eyes burned with determination.
He had an epiphany.
"Is this the reward for being the first to ascend to the Five Thousand Year Peach Orchard?"
"It's to keep me entertained while I wait for the other heroes."
Li Che smiled.
Stealing a peach? No, this was a legitimate harvest.
The Celestial Chessboard rumbled, and Li Che once again locked onto a peach, swiftly flying towards its location.
Gazing at the Five Thousand Year Chi Dragon Blood Peach hanging on the tree, its rich essence permeated the air, rivaling the quality of a top-tier Four Virtues Heavenly Essence.
Li Che stood beneath the tree, his mind sensing the surroundings.
As he spread his five fingers, a restriction woven from divine energy appeared on the tree, blocking his attempt to pluck the peach.
"The restriction is still in place, and the second round of the Hero Competition hasn't started yet, so I can't pick the peach."
However...
Li Che tried his trick again, summoning Yue Huanglong's spirit-binding technique.
But this time, before Yue Huanglong's spirit could even burn its fat, it was instantly blasted by the divine light, melting away.
Li Che couldn't help but feel shocked and awed by the speed of the divine light. Even if he were exposed to it, he might not be able to withstand its power. Sensing the growing intensity of the light, he felt a sense of foreboding.
Li Che abandoned his impulse to use spirit-binding to pluck the peach. Instead, through Yue Huanglong's spirit, he seemed to perceive an invisible, terrifyingly powerful locking force.
"This aura..."
Li Che's eyes lit up as if he had an idea.
He sat cross-legged, using this time before the other heroes ascended to the Five Thousand Year Peach Orchard as an opportunity to cultivate.
His mind sank into the Celestial Chessboard, and a spirit-binding chess piece appeared, representing Yue Huanglong's spirit-binding technique. On the pitch-black chess piece, a white light, thin as a fiber optic cable, slowly emerged.
Boom! As the white light appeared, the Celestial Chessboard trembled.
Within Li Che's chest, the Chess Sage's Dao Fruit trembled incessantly.
It was like the sound of a drum in the evening and a bell in the morning, reverberating through every inch of Li Che's body, flesh, bones, and skin.
Through the Celestial Chessboard, Li Che began to trace the path of this aura, gradually expanding his perception.
His mind, like an escaped primordial spirit, grew more and more excited, like a balloon being blown up.
The hundred-zhang-tall peach tree, under his observation, seemed to shrink.
He soared into the sky, perceiving the deep blue canopy above, with a brilliant sun hanging in the sky.
And that aura...
It emanated from the sun itself!
The aura wove like a thread, connecting the sun's dazzling brilliance.
The sun's radiance was so intense that even Li Che felt his heart trembling with awe.
"This is..."
Li Che took a deep breath.
His mind followed the thread-like aura, climbing higher and higher, until...
It connected with the sun!
Infinite brilliance poured through Li Che's perception, following the thread-like aura, tearing through the endless light, seeking to understand the truth and even attempting to capture and refine it.
Li Che felt a scorching sensation.
The next moment, his perception, following the aura to its source, simply evaporated!
In the Five Thousand Year Peach Orchard.
"Huff—"
"Sigh—"
With one breath and one sigh, the turbulent flow of energy caused countless peach leaves to rustle like waves, never ceasing.
Li Che suddenly opened his eyes, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.
"That is..."
Li Che's eyes held a lingering fear.
But after the initial shock...
Deep within his eyes, a glimmer of surprise emerged, like a volcano about to erupt.
That brilliant sun, its dazzling light fading, revealed itself to be a silver mirror with a bronze frame!
It was the Three Pure Heavenly Origin Sun Kunlun Mirror, the divine armament that the Great Jing Royal Family had been seeking, but never found, after the Immortal Mother's Mysterious Temple!
