Chapter 427: Becoming the Pillar of the Family, Burning Away the Turbulent Yin-Yang Netherworld King
Chapter 427: Becoming the Pillar of the Family, Burning Away the Turbulent Yin-Yang Netherworld King (Part 1)
Buzz...
One by one, the soul spirits gradually solidified and descended to the ground, as if materializing from the black mist that was constantly surging.
The children's souls that escaped from the Head Frog Toad Pill were successfully bound by the Soul Binding technique.
After the Pure Heart Dharmfruit transformed to level 6, the range of Soul Binding was no longer as restricted, and even ordinary children who had never cultivated could be bound successfully.
The children who had their souls bound ran around in Ink City with joy.
It was as if they were experiencing the feeling of controlling their bodies again, filled with happiness, excitement, curiosity, and emotion.
Li Che slowly removed the Netherworld King's mask, and a gentle expression appeared in his eyes.
For Li Che, binding the souls of these children was effortless, and they were too weak, truly powerless like a child unable to bind a chicken.
Gu Changqing stood up respectfully, looking at the happy children running around, and a hint of guilt appeared in his eyes.
As the sect master of the Heaven Dan Sect, he felt powerless in the face of many things, unable to stop them even if he wanted to.
In fact, the calamity these children faced was closely related to him.
"I have seen this scene before..."
"Many children died in Thunderbolt City back then, but unfortunately... I didn't have the ability to summon them back at that time."
Li Che's embroidered golden lotus robe fluttered in the wind, and his eyes were deep with reminiscence of the past.
At that time, Thunderbolt City was invaded by the Spirit Infants Sect, a subordinate of the Corpse God Sect, and eventually suffered a great calamity.
If it weren't for the bond he formed with his daughter's birth, gaining the Dao Fruit, he wouldn't even have the ability to protect his daughter. Waiting for Li Qingshan, the guide, to arrive might have been a luxury.
Sighing lightly, a gentle breeze blew, carrying the cold rain of Ink City.
The children played happily in the rain, and unconsciously, the crying of the lost souls and their attachment to their parents disappeared.
They started to play in the water and ran in the alleys with their friends.
Li Che suddenly thought of something and looked at Gu Changqing.
"The Heaven Dan Sect's actions are a bit similar to the Spirit Infants Sect. Is there any connection between your Heaven Dan Sect and the Corpse God Sect?"
Li Che asked.
"The Corpse God Sect..."
Gu Changqing's expression turned solemn.
He shook his head, "Master, at least during the period when I was in charge of the sect, under my watch, there was no connection between the Heaven Dan Sect's pill refiners and the Corpse God Sect..."
"As for the two grandmasters, Yin Xuan definitely wouldn't, but Yang Xuan is uncertain."
After thinking, Gu Changqing confirmed with certainty.
He also frankly stated that Yang Xuan might indeed have a connection with the Corpse God Sect, because the Heaven Dan Sect had never refined the evil Head Frog Toad Pill before.
It was Grandmaster Yang Xuan who started it.
"The refining method of the Head Frog Toad Pill is somewhat inherited from the Corpse God Sect."
"The Corpse God Sect... I haven't focused on them for a long time..."
Li Che narrowed his eyes.
Li Che walked out of Thunderbolt City, feeling the pressure of two mountains on his mind. One was Ji Mo Li, and the other, which constantly pushed him to become stronger, was the Corpse God Sect!
For Li Che at this moment, even a direct confrontation with the Corpse God Sect was not a problem. However, attempting to annihilate the Corpse God Sect was a bit challenging.
Because Li Che wasn't clear about the true strength of the Corpse God Sect.
With a thought, Li Che built houses in Ink City for the happy children running around, giving them a place to live.
"Master, these children are clever and unusual. Can I select some of them to train as medicine boys?"
Gu Changqing couldn't help but speak up after seeing Li Che's expression, wanting to share the burden with his lord.
Li Che glanced at Gu Changqing and smiled, agreeing.
Then, he summoned temple deities one by one, asking them to choose some child souls as their own disciples, just like Gu Changqing. Although the improvement of Soul Binding cultivation required consumption, giving these children a sense of belonging was also good.
The Netherworld Capital in the Netherworld was too empty.
Having more bound citizens would make it livelier.
After doing all this, Li Che looked at the children led away with their bound souls and felt a stir in his heart.
He clenched his fist, and his entire body disappeared into Ink City.
...
...
Large snowflakes fell from the sky, spinning and drifting down like goose feathers.
Xixi sat cross-legged in the snow, her body radiating intense heat like a burning iron.
The falling snowflakes melted into water as soon as they touched her.
Jin Taisui, Yun E, and Zhou Peng stood vigilantly in three directions, seriously guarding Xixi.
They hadn't expected Xixi to enter a cultivation state immediately after returning, with her energy and divinity fluctuating, indicating an impending breakthrough.
This surprised and impressed the three of them...
Especially Jin Taisui, who felt that his previous defeat to Xixi was not as significant as the gap between them now.
Jin Taisui had no words, only the determination to work harder and bridge the gap between them.
His eyes were sharp, and he guarded Xixi with utmost seriousness.
Initially, Yun E and the others were also worried about the possibility of the Heaven Dan Sect's Martial Sage pursuing them. If that happened, they wouldn't be able to resist.
However, after waiting for nearly an incense stick's worth of time, there was only the wailing and howling of the wind and snow, with no sign of the terrifying pursuit by the Martial Sage.
This caused the three of them to exchange glances, their faces filled with disbelief. Could it be that... the Martial Sage had been seriously injured in Xixi's mushroom array?
Otherwise, there was no reason for the Martial Sage not to pursue them after being bombarded by a seven-year-old little girl.
Boom!
Suddenly, their gazes turned sharply towards Xixi, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, melting the accumulated snow.
Xixi's bright red clothes fluttered in the wind, and a mighty surge of blood energy burst forth from her body.
The Hell Lotus Flame Wheel, Deity-Smashing Brick, Hell Lotus Sun God Sword, and Purple Flame Serpent Spear... the four-piece Divine Armament set flew up, releasing powerful Divinity from within, washing over Xixi's flesh and blood...
While enhancing her physical body, her Martial Dao cultivation was also improving!
"Hey-ha!"
Xixi flipped over and stood up, gripping the fire spear, and began to practice Martial Arts in the snow.
The spear's shadow moved horizontally and vertically, and the fire roared, as if a dragon and snake were dancing wildly!
After a long time, Xixi's blood energy gradually returned to calm, and her cultivation officially rose from the initial stage of the Grandmaster of Divine Aura to the later stage of the Grandmaster of Divine Aura!
One after another, Divine Aura intertwined and raged, and the apertures on her body glowed faintly.
Xixi stood with the spear in one hand, waist-high, and her eyes shone brightly.
She never expected that with the help of her sister's power, she would gain such unexpected benefits.
If she could borrow it every day, wouldn't she be able to grow stronger and faster?
When she returns home in the future, her father and mother will surely be so shocked that their jaws will drop!'
Xixi seemed to have already envisioned the scene of her father witnessing her powerful Martial Dao cultivation, willingly giving up his position as the head of the family.
Her little belly even started to tremble with excitement!
Buzzing...
Within the Divine Armaments, the surging Divinity was drawn in, madly rushing into Xixi's cinnabar field, causing her cultivation to slowly rise.
Boom!
It was as if a black flame was burning within her divine form, and the Divinity between heaven and earth, as if encountering a powerful will, frantically gathered into Xixi's body.
Slowly, her divine form cultivation continued to rise, and heaven and earth seemed to give birth to a vortex of Divinity. In this desolate snowfield, countless Divinity was swept up!
However, Xixi still felt it wasn't enough.
She took out one Divinity Crystal after another from the Heaven Earth Jade and began to absorb them.
The Divinity Crystals, which usually absorbed very slowly, were now absorbing at an incredibly fast rate.
The Divinity within the crystals surged like a tide, madly rushing into Xixi's body.
"Oh my... Xixi is growing so fast!"
Xixi's eyes sparkled.
"Come quickly! Xixi the Great is now extraordinarily insightful. Come and cultivate together!"
Xixi turned her head towards Yun E, Golden Tai Sui, and Zhou Peng, calling out to them.
The three of them were startled, exchanged glances, and chose to believe Xixi, no longer continuing to guard her. They approached Xixi and began to cultivate.
And this cultivation was unstoppable!
Because the cultivation of Divinity was indeed too smooth and silky.
As if the Divine Veins had been opened, Divinity rushed into their bodies at an incredibly fast rate.
Unknowingly, the four of them had cultivated for an entire day in the snowfield.
The vortex above Xixi's head gradually calmed down.
She opened her eyes, exhaling a breath of hot air, her eyes sparkling, and her cinnabar field seemed to have a dancing flame.
Then, powerful primordial spirit fluctuations swept and spread!
Xixi the Great had stepped into the Primordial Form Realm!
Looking at her companions, whose bodies were filled with breakthrough energy, Xixi's eyes narrowed into crescents.
Her heart was filled with excitement, and Xixi wasn't foolish. She had her suspicions, and she knew that her rapid cultivation breakthrough was related to the power of the big Xixi within her body.
"Sister, Xixi still wants to become super strong and reach a level where she can suppress Father!"
Xixi muttered, and her hands even drew an exaggeratedly large circle.
However.
Xixi waited for a long time, but there was no response.
The little girl couldn't help but pout.
Becoming strong was not easy, Xixi sighed.
...
...
Heavenly Origin Divine Sect.
Study Room.
Li Che held a Three Pure Realms Divinity Crystal, watching Xixi muttering to herself, and couldn't help but laugh.
"This little girl, her ambition is indeed not small... Does she want to take over the position of the head of the family from her father?"
Li Che smiled and shook his head.
However, his expression turned slightly serious.
As Xixi's Divinity broke through to the Primordial Form Realm, the Hell Lotus power in her cinnabar field seemed to stir restlessly.
Li Che still remembered how they were pitted by the gods of the Black Himalaya camp.
The Hell Lotus power seemed to have a significant impact on Xixi, and if she broke through to the Divine Embryo Realm, it would inevitably trigger a backlash from the Hell Lotus power.
Even though...
At this moment, Li Che discovered that Xixi's body contained the power of the big Xixi, but he wasn't sure if it could withstand the backlash of the Hell Lotus power when Xixi attempted to break through to the Divine Embryo Realm.
It wasn't that Li Che didn't trust the big Xixi, but Xixi's safety was too important to him. He didn't dare to take any risks with her.
"We need to make Xixi's physical body stronger..."
"The Immortal Lotus Heaven-Enveloping Silk and the Mystic Thunder Vajra Heaven-Earth Circle... We need to arrange them for Xixi."
"The Immortal Lotus Enveloping Silk is located at the headquarters of the Corpse God Sect... and the Mystic Thunder Vajra Heaven-Earth Circle is situated at the ancestral land of the Dragon God lineage, on Ancestral Dragon Island..."
Li Che narrowed his eyes, a thought suddenly crossing his mind.
"Ancestral Dragon Island..."
"Wait, the Dragon God lineage is preparing to come ashore, which means they are abandoning Ancestral Dragon Island?"
"What happened on Ancestral Dragon Island that forced the Dragon God lineage to give it up?"
His eyebrows furrowed slightly.
With a question in mind, he was about to summon the Dragon Prince to inquire, but the Dragon Prince was currently with the Ancient Dragon God.
If he summoned the Dragon Prince rashly, he might reveal his intentions.
"Never mind... I'll wait for now."
"After I turn the Ancient Dragon God into a Soul-Bound Spirit, I should be able to find out."
Li Che's eyes flickered.
Soon.
The opening of Heaven-Attaining City was drawing near, and the inheritance of Heaven-Attaining Temple was about to be revealed. Many powerful cultivators were getting restless, eager to rush to the city and compete for the grand opportunity located at the intersection of Dark Quarters and Netherworld Quarters.
The grandmasters of various Divine Sects, along with the Corpse God Sect, Western Pure Land, Wu God Mountain, and other powerful Divine Tribulation and Martial God cultivators, will all be heading towards Heaven-Attaining City."
There were likely hidden Divine Tribulation and Martial God experts within the court who would also make their move.
Perhaps, the opening of Heaven-Attaining City would become the most intense confrontation among the strongest cultivators in the human realm. Those Martial Gods and Divine Tribulation cultivators nearing their limits would all strive for one last chance.
Just like the Ancient Dragon God, who had endured and compromised, now entering the Great Limit Territory.
Therefore, Li Che could foresee that this Ancient Dragon would not be able to stay put.
Eager to resolve the matters in Guangling Dao City quickly, he would then head towards Heaven-Attaining City.
"Being hasty leads to mistakes and exposes flaws..."
Li Che's eyes flickered.
"Huff—"
"Suck—"
Li Che sat in his study, and with each breath, the divinity within his body continued to rise.
Holding the Three Pure Ones Divinity Crystal, he continuously extracted its essence, and with the Seven Aperture Crystal Heart's condensation, Li Che's absorption of the crystal's essence became increasingly faster.
With a thought, golden smoke wafted from his eyes.
【Dao Fruits: Divine Artisan (lv6, 40%), Dragon Elephant Vajra (lv7, 40%), Pure Heart (LV6, 88%), Chess Sage (LV6, 45%), Painter in the Picture (lv6, 35%), Thunder-Magnet (lv5, 80%), Dream Heavenly Master (lv3, 95%), Ten Thousand Demons Emperor (lv5, 0%)】
On the Tree of Dao, the maturity of various Dao Fruits gradually appeared before his eyes.
Looking at the reflection of the abundant fruits in his pupils, Li Che couldn't help but slowly raise the corners of his mouth.
The Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit had reached lv7, which caught Li Che's attention for a while.
Then, his gaze shifted to the Thunder-Magnet Dao Fruit, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"It's a pity that reaching the peak of the Ten Thousand Dragon Elephant Transformation and ascending to the Martial Dao Summit didn't trigger the Tribulation Thunder, as the Extreme Realm Tribulation Thunder had already been crossed once.
