Chapter 465: Opening the Coffin to Find the Great Sage's Remains, Personally Putting on Qitian's Face

Li Che brought Fang Hanshu into Mocheng Fengdu, his own territory where he reigned as the master. It was the safest place for Fang Hanshu, and Li Che had chosen it as the most peaceful location for him to read.

However, the current state of Mocheng Fengdu was in ruins, so Li Che, with a thought, created a leisure pavilion for Fang Hanshu, where he could leisurely read.

In reality, Fang Hanshu didn't have much time left.

He had truly sacrificed himself for a noble cause.

Li Che was helpless and couldn't save Fang Hanshu, as facing six divine calamity elders in the Two Disasters realm was beyond his capabilities, even for Li Che.

The previous Li Che, in his attempt to deal with the Black Niu Demon God, a Two Disasters realm elder, had exhausted all his tricks, resorting to backstabbing and schemes.

To confront six powerful beings in the Two Disasters realm, Li Che might even struggle to ensure his own safety.

But now, things were different.

Often, a change in the situation was just a matter of a fleeting thought.

After exhausting his bottom line and killing the Black Niu Demon God, Li Che completed the imprisonment and, with the transformation of Hai Jiu Ying, he now had two Two Disasters realm powerhouses under his command.

Additionally, with the transformation of the three divine seeds into immortal seeds and the acquisition of three immortal seeds, his explosive power increased once again.

The shift in the situation was no longer as restrictive as before.

Unfortunately, Li Che couldn't save Fang Hanshu, as he had chosen to seek assistance from the Great Supervisor, gaining heavenly power at the cost of Fang Hanshu's life force.

So, Li Che asked Fang Hanshu if it was worth it.

However, Fang Hanshu didn't mind. Perhaps he believed that Li Che could save him and allow him to exist in another way, but even if that wasn't possible, Fang Hanshu would accept it calmly.

After all, the Fang family's ancestral instruction was to protect Qitian, and Fang Hanshu had fulfilled this duty without disgracing the family or their ancestors, which was enough.

After sending Fang Hanshu away, Li Che adjusted the Monkey King mask on his face and looked at the five powerful beings.

Their powerful auras intertwined and crisscrossed, causing the airflow within the Qitian Temple to surge uncontrollably, and the temple itself seemed strange, as the interior of the temple's palace transformed into an incredibly vast space.

It was even larger than a regular square, and the stone coffin was located in the central position.

It seemed isolated, sitting in the middle of the square.

The situation within the temple gave Li Che a sense of familiarity, reminiscent of the ninth floor of the Imperial Observatory's Treasure Tower, where the Great Supervisor resided.

On that ninth floor, Li Che had experienced this sensation of expanding space.

Despite being a small room, it could become infinitely vast and enormous.

Perhaps this was the power of spatial Dao Yun.

"Di Fu..."

Zhang Wuji gazed at the masked Monkey King and sighed softly.

He then looked at the two terrifying and ferocious beasts blocking their path, one being the Yao Zun of the Demon Clan, and the other beast exuding a ferocity that made it the most vicious creature Zhang Wuji had ever encountered in his life.

However, Zhang Wuji felt that the Black Niu Demon God was somewhat peculiar.

After entering Di Fu Fengdu, why had he emerged in alliance with the Di Fu Divine Monkey? What agreement had they reached within Fengdu?

Zhang Wuji felt a sense of unease for reasons he couldn't explain.

He raised his head, and his heavenly Dao soul drifted out, sensing the constantly shattering space above the inner city of Qitian. The fluctuations were gradually slowing down and subsiding.

His heart grew heavy, as the longer this situation dragged on, the more unfavorable it became for them.

Once the Guardian of the Temple: King of Cursed Corpses returned, they would have to retreat, or else...

They would die!

A Three Disasters Supreme realm Guardian of the Temple: King of Cursed Corpses was not someone they could stop; they were not on the same level.

Boom!

"Attack!"

"Finish this quickly!"

Zhang Wuji clenched his five fingers, and his divine nature surged and boiled. Countless divine essences poured out from the divine shrine behind him, flowing into the silver carving and rapidly striking towards Li Che.

"Black Niu Demon God! What are you thinking? Even if you truly collaborate with Di Fu, by delaying like this, our supreme bottom line won't be able to hold back the Guardian of the Temple: King of Cursed Corpses. Neither the Great Sage's Corpse nor the Qitian Divine Weapon... will be obtained by anyone!"

Zhang Wuji shouted.

On the other side, the cicada-patterned ascetic monk also took action, shaking his monk staff, causing countless staff shadows to intertwine densely. The power of the Two Disasters realm erupted.

Upon reaching the divine realm, the difference between martial gods and divine calamity elders wasn't as significant as it was between martial saints and divine fetuses. They both relied on divine nature to orchestrate their moves, resulting in somewhat similar techniques.

The only difference was that martial gods engaged in close combat, utilizing martial arts and techniques more frequently.

The ascetic monk, being a martial god, employed overwhelmingly powerful moves, and his staff technique shook the heavens and the earth.

Perhaps this was the reason he was chosen to be sent to the Qitian Temple to seize the opportunity.

Roar!

Hai Jiu Ying's six heads whipped around, fiercely attacking the ascetic monk who had unleashed the staff shadows.

The battle erupted instantly, and the powerful forces were slightly suppressed, as they were cautious not to damage the Great Sage's Corpse.

Even with this restraint, the unleashed combat power remained extremely terrifying.

The five powerful beings in the Two Disasters realm unleashed their formidable techniques, and the terrifying power of the divine calamity erupted, ravaging and spilling out. The space seemed like a torn cloth, constantly trembling and undulating.

Logically, the space in the strange temple should have been more stable and resilient, making it more challenging to break through. At the very least, it should have been more robust than the mortal world.

This was because the strange temple connected the mortal world and the strange realm, and the spatial strength between them would be adjusted accordingly.

However, within this Qitian Strange Temple, the space seemed incredibly fragile.

"Fight for the Great Sage's Corpse!"

A deep voice echoed continuously, filled with unwavering determination. This was their goal.

They seemed certain that the stone coffin contained the Great Sage's Corpse.

The Black Niu Demon God and Hai Jiu Ying, blocking the five powerful beings in the Two Disasters realm, appeared to be struggling, and they were on the verge of being overwhelmed!

Li Che, however, did not activate his immortal seed. He immediately rushed into battle.

His toes tapped the ground, and the surface seemed to explode with invisible ripples. Countless airflows surged before his body, dispersing like waves.

His entire body resembled a comet, pulling out dazzling white waves within the strange temple.

He charged towards the stone coffin containing the Qitian's remains.

The ancient coffin was engraved with patterns of lotuses, which were the patterns of Jianlian.

Li Che's eyes flickered with a complex expression, a hint of determination flashing within them.

Without a doubt, based on the clues he currently possessed, when connected together, it became clear that this Qitian Temple deity belonged to the Guique Pantheon's Yujian camp.

The Hei Xumi, Guigu Ku, and Meng Tian Ting pantheons, among others, were unwilling to see Qitian's revival. They sought to obtain Qitian's corpse and sever any chance of his resurrection.

From another perspective, it was to completely eradicate the Yujian camp!

Just like his daughter Xixi, who had been harmed by the Golden Heavenly King Temple deity of Hei Xumi, she had been cursed by Yujian, and when she broke through the divine fetus, she would face a great tribulation.

Other deities within the Yujian camp...

The Third Prince should also be one of the Yujian Temple deities, along with the temple deities within Yun'e and Zhou Peng, such as the Tianpeng and Guanghan Temple deities, were likely part of the Yujian camp as well.

Li Che was unsure and couldn't judge the nature of the Yujian camp. He was merely a mortal, so how could he possibly understand the situation among the deities?

He only knew that these pantheons wanted to make things difficult for his daughter, and even wanted to capture her. That was enough!

Boom—!!!

A terrifying collision erupted. The monk with the cicada pattern, holding a monk staff, drew an arc, emitting a dark light that shattered the space.

His eyes, burning with the flames of the cicada pattern, fixed intently on the Di Fu Divine Monkey rushing towards the stone coffin.

Not only him, but Zhang Wuji, the female Guanyin, the Dajing Former Emperor Lv Wenchang, the Wu Shen Priest, and other powerful beings also turned their attention to the Di Fu Divine Monkey.

It seemed they were curious about what the Di Fu Divine Monkey was up to. Was it going to open the coffin and see if Qitian's corpse was truly inside?

However, despite their observation, their actions showed no signs of restraint.

Boom—!!!

The void seemed to collapse. Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun and Hai Jiu Ying roared in anger, their bodies shaking violently as if they were about to explode.

Yet, their figures were resilient, unwilling to retreat. Their battle intent was palpable, as if they were rooted in the void, determined to fight to the death.

Even though Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun was battered, with the Disaster Wheel covered in cracks, he still did not give up.

This stunned everyone. Had the Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun from the vast river gone mad?

Why?

Everyone's purpose in coming here should have been the same, right?

Why did Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun choose to collaborate with Di Fu, even fighting to the point of frenzy, causing the Disaster Wheel to shatter? This was self-destructive behavior, leading to the severing of one's divine path.

Madness!

Boom—!!!

The terrifying attack pressed on, with divine nature like a vast ocean tide and the power of Dao Yun contained within, making the divine impact even more terrifying and the attack more ferocious.

Bang, bang, bang, bang—

"Ah! Come on!"

"Old Bull isn't afraid of you!"

Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun roared, his body swelling as he held up the Jiahaizi Jinxing Liang, wildly dancing and flailing, blood dripping from his mouth.

On the other side, Hai Jiu Ying's six heads connected to a dragon-like neck, scales spreading open, spewing out ink mist.

Suddenly—

The monk with the cicada pattern in his eyes, his monk staff coiled.

"Poison!"

Boom!

A terrifying golden cicada, a fusion of divine nature and Buddhist light, appeared, flapping its wings.

In an instant, the golden cicada turned black at a visible speed.

"Damn! Has the poison been discovered?"

Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun coughed blood and cursed.

Then why was he poisoned? Oh, he had been backstabbed... No problem there!

It wasn't that Hei Niu was stupid, but that the lord was too cunning... Smart!

Hidden in the darkness, Gu Yunxuan, wearing a mask and wrapped in a black robe, saw that the Tian Tu Dan he was proud of was useless. The eyebrows beneath his mask twitched slightly, gradually showing signs of frenzy.

Bald donkey, you've piqued Du Sheng's interest.

He raised his hands, and between each finger, he held a blackened poison pill emitting toxic fumes.

He crushed and flung them out fiercely.

Poison mist rolled.

Meanwhile, Li Che paid no attention to the battered Hei Niu and Hai Jiu Ying.

Blocking them to the death was enough, after all...

They weren't afraid to die. Even if they did, it wouldn't matter; they could just resurrect and fight again.

Even the ancient Gu Yunxuan, who couldn't surpass the one-disaster-three-tribulation realm, was thrown out by Li Che.

However, Gu Yunxuan was different. With his mastery of Qianzhang Wangu Wugong Powder, he already possessed the foundation and strength of a two-disaster-realm deity.

So, Li Che had Gu Yunxuan make a move, which could buy them some time.

Li Che's goal was the same as Fang Hanshu's.

Blocking these five powerful beings from the two-disaster realm was enough, giving the Guardian of the Temple: King of Cursed Corpses a bit of time.

Once the Fang family's ancestor returned, everything would be secure.

These people coveting Qitian's legacy would be dealt with, one by one.

Li Che's purpose was to stall, so he didn't plan to take action.

Because he had one more thing to do.

Buzz—

Li Che arrived before the stone coffin, a simple and unremarkable one, quietly placed in the center of the strange temple.

He looked towards the back of the strange temple, where a temple deity statue was seated on the altar.

However, this temple deity statue was completely obscured by dense Guiwu Mist, making it impossible to see its appearance.

But through the wafting mist, one could make out exquisitely detailed armor carvings below—chain mail, golden-threaded garments, cloud-treading boots, draped cloaks, and two phoenix feathers rising towards the sky, faintly visible.

The more he looked at the statue, the stronger the sense of oppression he felt, as if behind the mist, a pair of fiery divine eyes were staring directly at him.

The complete Qitian's Face was trembling slightly.

It was being drawn, and from within the ancient stone coffin, a powerful force was attracting Qitian's Face.

At this moment, the mythical weapon seemed to have its divine nature fully awakened.

This was why Li Che didn't choose to engage the five two-disaster-realm deity, but instead came to the stone coffin, seizing the initiative.

Li Che had an extremely bold and strong idea in mind.

The powerful beings from various camps aimed for Qitian's corpse, wanting to take it from the Qitian Temple and prevent Qitian's resurrection.

So why didn't Li Che go against the flow?

Let Qitian...

Resurrect early!

Could it be done?

Li Che wasn't sure, and he didn't know how to resurrect Qitian. But these pantheon deities believed Qitian could be revived, so it was likely possible, perhaps with certain conditions or the right timing.

Anyway, Li Che was willing to give it a try...

Even more so, Li Che's heart secretly held some anticipation and excitement. He wanted to know if this world's Qitian had any connection to the Qitian from his previous life's mythology.

The myths of two lifetimes were so similar, whether it was the Third Prince, the Manifested Holy Lord of Erlang, Tianpeng, Qitian... or even the Four Great Heavenly Kings, all gave Li Che a sense of deja vu.

Was there some secret hidden within the overlapping myths of the two lifetimes?

And could it...

...help him find the path back to his previous world?

Was it possible?

If he could find the path back to his previous world, Li Che was willing to take Xixi home for a visit. At least, that world... compared to this one, was much more peaceful.

Li Che didn't need to be overly cautious, after all, very few things could threaten him now that he had reached the level of a Martial Immortal. Even the most advanced weapons couldn't harm him.

So, he could quietly watch his daughter grow up.

Hoo—

Li Che exhaled, and his eyes suddenly ignited with golden flames.

Within his chest, the Immortal Dao Fruit trembled!

As if fused with his skin, Qitian's Face suddenly tore open, revealing the Star-Plucking Pupil from the center of his eyebrows!

With infinite analysis, he peered into the void and returned to reality!

His gaze shifted from the Qitian Divine Eagle shrouded in Guiwu Mist to the ancient stone coffin.

The stone coffin was ancient and worn, with simple carvings that showed clear chisel marks. It hadn't been polished at all, as if it had been casually chiseled and used as a coffin.

Primitive and simple.

Li Che's palm rested on the ancient coffin, and on it, a pattern of Yulian emerged, as if dyed in divine essence, coming to life, swaying gently.

With the Star-Plucking Pupil and a thousand analytical hands, the moment his palm touched the stone coffin, he seemed to understand its structure.

In fact, it was quite simple. The coffin lid was just a simple cover, and there wasn't even a single nail to secure it.

Just push it open.

Dong, dong, dong, dong, dong—

Li Che felt his heart pounding loudly, the sound reverberating in his ears, as if an echo was resounding endlessly!

Excitement, anticipation, and tension...

Various emotions suddenly surged into Li Che's heart.

Qitian...

Li Che's eyes became complex and determined, and within his chest, the Pure Heart Dao Fruit pulsed, and the power of the Dao Fruit suddenly washed over his mind, calming his spirit.

In his mind, the Fataxiongdi Lingming Zhenyuan Shentai also quieted down, no longer roaring.

This divine fetus was cultivated according to the methods passed down by Qitian's Face, so naturally, there was a connection with Qitian.

Push it open...

Li Che had the thought, and the next moment, golden qi blood ignited, pure martial qi blood, transforming into a golden pillar of light that soared into the sky and struck the roof of the Qitian Temple with force.

Boom, boom, boom!

The entire Qitian Temple shook violently, and the ground trembled as if an earthquake had struck.

In the distance, the Black Niu Demon God and Hai Jiu Ying, who had almost forced the five powerful beings into a corner, suddenly froze, their eyes fixed on the stone coffin.

"He's opening the coffin!"

Zhang Wuji's expression turned solemn.

He didn't miss a single detail, and his eyes scanned the scene.

The Scented Monk, the Former Emperor of Dajing, Lv Wenchang, the female Guanyin, and other powerful beings also stared intently.

Although their killing actions didn't stop, the intensity had lessened significantly.

They all focused on the ancient coffin in the center of the strange temple.

Boom!!!

The pure martial qi blood transformed into a pillar of energy that soared into the sky!

Li Che's muscles tensed, and the bones of his Martial Immortal Golden Body trembled. In every meridian, blood surged, emitting an ear-splitting roar!

It shook heaven and earth!

...

...

In the Inner City of Qitian.

The entire inner city was shaking, and every palace swayed back and forth. All the powerful beings had expressions of shock and horror.

The resource gatherers among them rushed out of the palaces, their faces filled with astonishment as they looked towards the direction of the Qitian Temple in the Inner City...

What was happening?

How could there be such a tremendous commotion!

"Roar!!!!"

In the cloud-filled sky.

Countless Guiwu Mist exploded!

Rumble, rumble—

Countless thick and heavy chains, like phoenix feathers, whipped through the air, tearing space apart!

The Guardian of the Temple: King of Cursed Corpses, covered in curse seals, revealed his figure. He was none other than the founder of the Qitian Temple and the patriarch of the Fang family!

The terrifying pressure of the Three Calamities Supreme filled the air, as if a divine mountain had been shattered, causing a deafening silence.

This terrifying pressure swept through the entire Inner City of Qitian, causing the cultivators in every palace to feel their legs turn soft, completely overwhelmed by the pressure, leaving them in a state of shock.

The overwhelming malice and murderous intent were enough to make anyone despair!

Escape!

Some people, unable to withstand the impact, dared not linger in the Inner City of Qitian. They quickly fled towards the gate that had transported them there.

Lv Tai Bai's silver hair fluttered, and he gripped the Taibai Sword, his eyes filled with shock.

It was too terrifying...

If this Three Calamities Guardian of the Temple: King of Cursed Corpses wasn't restricted, he might slaughter everyone in the city!

Lv Qiankun swiftly flew over, finding Lv Tai Bai's location, and the two of them met, their faces grave.

"Should we stay or leave?"

This was the question on both their minds.

"A Che and Old Fang... are still inside. Should we just leave like this?"

Lv Tai Bai hesitated.

He had a hunch that Li Che might have run into the Qitian Temple.

As for Fang Hanshu...

A moment ago, he had caught a glimpse of the Hao Ran Chang He, and Fang Hanshu might have also run into the Qitian Temple.

However, Lv Tai Bai couldn't understand why Fang Hanshu would run into the temple.

Li Che had the means of Di Fu, and he could fight and escape. What about you, Fang Hanshu?

Do you have the Three-Jing Sage Book?

"Wait... just a little longer..."

Lv Tai Bai exhaled and said.

Lv Qiankun didn't say anything. Currently, Lv Tai Bai was still the leader of the Qianyuan God Sect. If they perished here, the sect would undoubtedly face decline, but this was a choice Lv Tai Bai had to make.

...

...

As Li Che pushed the ancient coffin lid...

Not only the Inner City of Qitian but even the Outer City of Qitian shook violently!

The powerful beings gathered in the Outer City, their faces filled with shock.

Many buildings collapsed, and on the ground, thick cracks appeared, spreading and intertwining!

Countless Guiwu Mist rose from the cracks, hissing.

Within the mist, the divine essence was filled with corrosive power, and even the numerous cultivators felt the oppressive force within their divine essence.

While drastic changes were taking place in the outer city of Qitian, a different scene unfolded in the alleyways.

The dimly lit street was bathed in a warm, orange glow, creating a tranquil atmosphere that seemed out of place in this chaotic world.

Xixi sat upright in a chair, her short legs dangling as she slurped up a bowl of maoyou chaoshou, her mouth watering with every bite.

Xixi loved the restaurant; ever since she arrived, the owner would indulge her every culinary desire.

Suddenly, the restaurant trembled slightly. Xixi, who had just swallowed her food, widened her eyes and looked at the owner, who was holding a cigarette between his lips.

The owner nodded slightly, reassuring Xixi that there was no need to worry.

The large black dog that had been lazily lying at Xixi's feet suddenly raised its head, its dark eyes, like black jujubes, emitting a sinister glow as it stared in the direction of the inner city of Qitian.

"Is the coffin opening?"

"Will we make it in time?"

The owner pinched the cigarette between his lips with two fingers.

He gently tapped off the ash.

"If we don't make it..."

...

...

The air was scorching, and the heat was overwhelming! Qi and blood surged like fire, and the aura was arrogant!

Intense heat waves ravaged the entire Qitian Temple, and the pillar of energy rose to the top of the temple, as if it would overturn the entire structure!

Li Che's qi and blood were incredibly dense, shimmering with a dazzling golden color. Vortex after vortex appeared along his spine, and a massive furnace loomed, resembling a rising sun.

One by one, the chains within the furnace snapped!

Ascending!

Climbing higher and higher!

The Wu Xian Dao Yun manifested outside Li Che's body, creating a phantom image.

It seemed as if heaven and earth were merging, and the heavens were enraged!

Li Che's Wu Xian Jin Shen, which had solidified into a steel-like body, unleashed a terrifying power never seen before!

Creak...

Creak—!!!

The sound of stone grinding against stone echoed like thunder, and the rumble of war drums seemed to descend from the heavens above!

The reverberations filled the entire Qitian Temple!

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—

Countless abundant and surging divine essences surged out from the cracks of the opened coffin.

After opening the coffin a little, it no longer felt strenuous, and with a slight effort, Li Che pushed the lid aside.

The scene inside the stone coffin was revealed.

Li Che's heart trembled as he gazed intently.

Inside the stone coffin lay a simple figure in plain cloth, a monkey, quietly resting.

Its golden eyelids were closed, as if in peaceful slumber.

The monkey's body was emaciated, withered, and desiccated, as if all flesh and blood had vanished, leaving only fur clinging to its bones.

Death and corpse qi surged from the coffin.

Apart from that, there was nothing unusual.

It seemed as if a mere monkey, not a divine being, lay there.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—

The death and corpse qi soared into the sky!

The tremors in the Qitian Temple gradually subsided, returning to calm after the initial shock.

In the distance, five heavenly Dao souls swept in, sensing the monkey's corpse lying peacefully within the stone coffin.

"Qitian's corpse!"

"The Great Sage's remains!"

At that moment, the five Er Zhai Shen Jie Zun Zhe were filled with excitement.

It was real!

Inside the stone coffin lay the remains of Qitian!

In truth, before opening the coffin, no one could be certain if Qitian's remains were truly inside.

The greatest fear was that the coffin would be empty, devoid of Qitian's remains, leaving them to wonder where Qitian had gone and if he had revived prematurely.

But now, everything could be confirmed!

"Qitian's remains!"

"Seize it!"

With a buzz, he struck out!

Boom—!!!

Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun roared in resistance but was instantly blasted, his body torn apart, flesh and blood shattered.

The S quotidien Monk clenched his five fingers, and a golden bowl appeared in his palm. He struck the Seng Gun in his hand against the golden bowl, causing it to vibrate at an astonishing rate.

The next moment, he smashed it towards Hai Jiu Ying, instantly shattering four of its six heads!

These powerful beings unleashed their formidable strength and skills without hesitation.

If Li Che were present, he would have realized that these powerful beings indeed possessed profound foundations.

Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun, in particular, was genuinely straightforward.

Of course, it was also possible that Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun had hidden trump cards, but Li Che's series of schemes had left him no time to reveal them before his demise.

Boom—!!!

The five beings unleashed their abilities, blasting Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun and Hai Jiu Ying to pieces, utterly annihilating them.

Blood and flesh exploded, scattering in all directions.

But the next moment, they transformed into rolling black mist, rising and churning.

The five beings, who had been advancing with their divine weapons, were instantly shrouded by the dense black mist.

Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun emerged once more, carrying the Jiahaizi Jinxing Liang and raising his head.

Hai Jiu Ying shook its newly regenerated six heads and roared.

The five beings stared, their eyes reflecting disbelief as they witnessed the fully healed Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun and Hai Jiu Ying.

"What is he doing?"

Suddenly, the cold voice of Guanyin, the female Bodhisattva, pierced the air.

Their attention shifted from the bizarrely resurrected Hei Niu Yao Shen Zun and Hai Jiu Ying.

They turned their gaze to the monkey who had pushed open the stone coffin.

And they saw...

The monkey raised its five fingers and placed them on its face.

Slowly, it removed the monkey mask.

And beneath the mask...

A purple flame erupted from the monkey's skull, unleashing a terrifying force of calamity.

Beneath the purple fire, only the back of the golden skull faced them.

The Di Fu Gui Di!

Upon seeing the figure of the purple fire and the golden skull, he immediately thought of the Di Fu Gui Di from the reports.

Li Che's fingers gripped the Qitian mask.

Looking at the monkey's corpse in the coffin, the Great Sage's remains.

He slowly placed the mask on the monkey's face...

Perfectly fitting, neat and tidy.

However...

There was no movement inside the coffin.

The Great Sage's remains, wearing Qitian's face, showed no signs of any special transformation.

In the golden skull's eyes...

A hint of disappointment flickered.

Was it...still not working?
