Chapter 471: The Fate of Isolation, The Lotus Daughter's Father, and Qitian's Protection (Part 1)
For Li Che, the Soul-Seizing technique on Fang Hanshu was not a difficult task.
After all, Fang Hanshu's cultivation was not particularly high at the moment. Even with the power of the Chief Commissioner's cosmic will, it was not Fang Hanshu's own strength.
Therefore, Li Che easily completed the soul-seizing technique.
Countless ink-colored lights intertwined, creating a hazy and turbulent scene, as if the dark clouds in the sky had descended upon the mortal realm.
Gradually, a vast river seemed to surge.
Fang Hanshu's scholar's robe fluttered, his beard flying, and his eyes slowly opened, revealing a look of loneliness, confusion, and astonishment.
The clanking sound of chains echoed all around, as Li Che had forcefully pulled Fang Hanshu from the netherworld, sealing him with the soul-seizing technique.
Fang Hanshu's beard fluttered in the wind, his expression a mix of surprise, realization, and understanding. He stared at Li Che with gleaming eyes.
He finally understood why those cultivators who had entered Mocheng Fengdu had betrayed the ones they originally served.
He also understood why powerful cultivators would betray their original factions and become loyal members of the Underworld without hesitation.
It was because this method and power were truly terrifying, capable of making people submit at the soul level.
Most importantly, the Underworld's many villains... were all just Li Che.
The Underworld, the force that had continuously stirred up chaos in the world, had only been one person from the very beginning.
All speculations and deductions were just empty theories.
The idea that the Underworld had a backing force, possibly the Infernal Lotus Camp, was nothing but a joke.
After all, the gods of the Infernal Lotus Camp had not yet revived, and only Qitian had just been reborn. How could such an Infernal Lotus be the power behind the Underworld?
Fang Hanshu was in awe, his scholar's perspective completely shattered.
What an incredible Underworld...
Truly an unbelievable Underworld.
Fang Hanshu's beard fluttered as he stood up and clasped his fists, "Fang Hanshu, paying respects to the Lord."
Li Che sat in the ink-colored pavilion, tilting his head slightly and glancing at Fang Hanshu, "Old Fang, don't mess with your own people."
He took out the jade amulet given to him by Fang Xinyuan and handed it to Fang Hanshu with reverence.
"This is something left to you by the Patriarch of the Fang family. Because of your persistence in following the Patriarch's will and protecting Qitian, the Patriarch has left you a legacy."
"This is the legacy of a Supreme."
Li Che spoke seriously, emphasizing the importance of this item, which could cause a huge stir in the outside world and make countless people pursue it.
Upon hearing this, Fang Hanshu's expression became complex, "Has the Patriarch... fallen?"
Li Che briefly described the situation, "I'm sorry, the Patriarch of the Fang family transformed into the Guardian of the Temple: King of Cursed Corpses. His soul was sacrificed, and I couldn't save him with the soul-seizing technique."
In fact, even if the soul-seizing technique was successful, the chances of success would still be low.
Because the Patriarch of the Fang family was, after all, a Supreme.
And compared to a Supreme, Li Che's current strength, despite reaching the level of the second disaster and first tribulation, was still far inferior.
Even for cultivators at the second disaster and second tribulation, or the third tribulation, there was still a chance to succeed in soul-seizing. But for Supremes, the difficulty was extremely high, and the failure rate was too great.
"There's no need to apologize, it has nothing to do with you."
Fang Hanshu sighed, tears streaming down his face, as he admired the Patriarch's unparalleled loyalty and respect for his teacher.
Boom—
Li Che also looked up, and the Heaven and Earth Chessboard stretched across the sky above Mocheng, reflecting the scene on the chessboard.
Fang Hanshu also raised his head, and after reminiscing about the Patriarch for a while, he suddenly realized that he had also died. If it weren't for the Lord's soul-seizing technique, he would have completely dissipated and vanished from the world.
In fact, Fang Hanshu had anticipated this day, which was why he had borrowed power from the Chief Commissioner. He knew that in the entire Great Scene, only two people could help him obtain this power and ascend.
One was the Chief Commissioner of the Commissioner of Heaven, and the other was the Great Wushen of Wushan.
Fang Hanshu couldn't fathom the true strength of the Chief Commissioner.
Fang Hanshu had long prepared for his own death, and sacrificing himself for justice was a choice he had made early on.
However, he never expected that he would still be alive.
Thanks to Li Che.
It could only be described as a unique stroke of luck.
Fang Hanshu also looked up, watching the battle between the gods on the chessboard, and couldn't help but sigh and exclaim.
The Qitian Temple Deity had revived, and with divine power, it spanned across the nine heavens. The huge six-winged golden cicada was also extremely terrifying.
It was as if a gigantic palm was constantly searching and flipping over, trying to locate the Qitian Temple Deity, which had transformed into golden light, in order to suppress and strike it down!
This was a battle between divine beings, as their powerful divine auras collided and their grand dao powers intertwined.
Even with this burst of power, the heavens and earth shook, and they were not yet true divine beings.
Qitian had just revived, absorbing the flesh, essence, spirit, and Dao-Geniusite of five Supremes, restoring some of his divine power.
And the six-winged golden cicada was not the golden cicada of the Black Sumeru's divine being, but a strand of its divine aura...
Even so, their confrontation was already earth-shattering!
Boom—
The shadow of a staff loomed, and a sea of fire covered the sky. An old monkey, surrounded by radiant light, danced wildly with a red staff in his hand, emitting an intensely bright light. With a few somersaults, he transformed into countless shadows, and his long staff struck out, as if causing the heavens to collapse and the earth to sink.
He unleashed an unparalleled Douzhan stance!
The six-winged golden cicada, resembling a giant Buddha's palm, was pierced through the palm, and black blood flowed from the gaping hole.
The intense cicada's cry echoed from within Qitian's inner city, reverberating through the outer city, and even beyond the city, reaching a thousand li away, like the cicada's cry at the end of summer.
Boom—
The six-winged golden cicada's wings shattered.
They were shattered by Qitian's staff.
Even the sky seemed to have been pierced, and the unparalleled Qitian, the invincible Douzhan Sage, had consumed the essence, blood, and bones of five Supremes, unleashing a strike that seemed to pierce through the river of time!
"Wukong..."
"Did you revive early to protect the Lotus Daughter?"
You will regret this... Your early revival will only provoke the gods of various camps..."
The six-winged golden cicada was collapsing, shattering inch by inch!
Behind the crumbling six-winged golden cicada, a figure of a Buddhist monk seemed to emerge, palms pressed together, softly chanting.
The ancient city tower, brick and stone, exhausted the Supreme power, and he seemed to have aged countless years, his back arched like a great dragon's spine, slightly curved.
Monkey hair danced in the wind.
Standing on a cloud, his golden eyes scanned the surroundings.
"No harm, come as you will."
"Let's see if this old monkey is afraid."
The golden cicada pressed his palms together, and behind him, an enormous cicada pattern loomed, blocking out the sun and sky.
Slowly, like withering flames, it disappeared between heaven and earth.
...
...
The world was quiet.
Both inside and outside Qitian City, silence reigned.
The terrifying divine might vanished without a trace, but every cultivator was left gasping for breath, having witnessed a battle between deities, albeit a fleeting one. The intensity of the fight was truly awe-inspiring!
This battle was destined to be recorded in the annals, becoming a battle that countless strong cultivators would reminisce about.
The inner city of Qitian was already deserted.
In the outer city, everyone was talking about it. They couldn't contain their excitement, as a Supreme from the gods' camp had met an untimely end, falling in the inner city of Qitian.
There was even a deity from the gods' camp who personally descended and fought with Qitian, but he too was defeated, solidifying Qitian Dashi's invincible reputation!
Lv Tai Bai stretched his neck and looked towards the inner city of Qitian, where the cracks had healed and it had returned to its former state.
He dared not step into the inner city, but his heart was filled with mixed emotions.
"Old Fang and Li Che are both in the inner city of Qitian... I wonder how they fared?"
"I hope they're safe."
Lv Tai Bai sighed softly, unable to do anything more.
Outside the city, hundreds of miles away.
The revival of the Qitian Temple Deity... The world's situation was about to undergo a significant change! At the very least, the actions of the gods' camp would no longer be as peaceful as before.
His sigh echoed endlessly, and when he arrived, there were so many Second Disaster God Tribulation Venerables, but in the end, only he remained...
"Infernal Lotus is indeed cruel..."
"No wonder the Patriarch said that when the Infernal Lotus blooms, the Blood Tribulation arises. This Infernal Lotus... is the Tribulation of the Gods of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands!"
"Where should I go from here?"
"Opposing the Infernal Lotus is too dangerous, and joining them... is also dangerous..."
"Sigh, even walking on thin ice has become dangerous with the rising divine tide."
His voice echoed in the shattered space.
"Difficult, difficult, difficult..."
...
...
The commotion in the outside world.
Li Che actually knew this, as he had left a Thunder Chessman on Lv Tai Bai, allowing him to clearly understand the situation in the outer city of Qitian.
However, after confirming that the Black Ox Demon God had not yet returned from the inner city and that the Second Disaster God Tribulation Venerables of various forces had fallen in the inner city of Qitian, the atmosphere in the outer city became more harmonious.
Everyone seemed to have reached a state of mutual peace.
Nevertheless, no one had left, and they were all waiting for the waves of the battle between the gods in the inner city to subside before entering to explore the resources once again.
Inside Mocheng Fengdu.
Li Che sat in the black pavilion, his gaze slowly withdrawing, and he exhaled softly.
His mood instantly relaxed, and he felt relieved.
Qitian had indeed won.
However, he did not leave Mocheng Fengdu immediately, as although the battle between the gods had ended, Qitian seemed to be standing in the void, sensing something.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Che planned to sort out his gains from this encounter.
With a thought, he bid farewell to Fang Hanshu, and his entire person disappeared from the pavilion.
Fang Hanshu was not surprised by this, as after becoming the Seizer of the Gods, he had already understood Li Che's mystery and power.
It turned out that Li Che was even more powerful than he had imagined!
Buzz—
Black rain poured down between heaven and earth.
The Dominating Tower.
It was restored, rising from the ground and shattering countless raindrops.
Li Che's black robe fluttered in the wind, and the Primal Dragon-Phoenix Flame on his head had disappeared. His jet-black, vigorous hair lashed at the void, and his skin was crystal clear, with blood like golden pearls flowing and thundering in his golden veins.
His entire body trembled violently, his blood boiling, and a scorching aura rose from his body.
In the inner city of Qitian, when Li Che faced the Black Ox Demon God, he exhausted all his trump cards, ultimately breaking through in his martial path, passing through the Golden Heavenly Gate, and entering the Heavenly Gate. He gained the Dao-Geniusite Crystal and became a Martial Immortal.
However, Li Che knew that his breakthrough had not gained the approval of heaven and earth.
Moreover, he had a hunch that his Martial Immortal path was still incomplete.
Perhaps he needed to face the Cosmic Will Tribulation in the mortal world and attempt a breakthrough to truly step into the Martial Immortal realm.
If one breaks through the Martial Saint realm using the path of divine martial arts, they become a Martial God and face the Three Disasters and Nine Tribulations.
On the other hand, if one breaks through the Martial Saint realm using the pure martial path, they become a Martial Immortal, but what path he should take... Li Che didn't know, nor did he know what kind of tribulations he would face.
"Martial Immortal, in an era when the temple of the strange deity has not appeared and the divine nature has not emerged, is just a legend."
Li Che sat cross-legged in the Dominating Tower, his jet-black, vigorous hair dancing wildly.
In his chest, numerous Dao Fruits throbbed.
Before him, golden light flowed like solidified incense smoke, slowly drifting by.
...
【Name: Li Che】
【Bonds: Li Nuanxi (daughter)】
【Progress: School Age (7 years old)】
【Dao Fruits: Divine Craftsmanship (lv7, 5%), Dragon-Elephant Diamond (lv7, 35%), Incorruptible Heart (LV7, 15%), Chess Sage (LV6, 90%), Painted Immortal (lv6, 97%), Thunder and Magnetic Body (lv6, 5%), Dream Master (lv4, 10%), Ten-Thousand Demon Emperor (lv6, 90%)】
...
【Tip: For every year of safe growth of the bonded person, a Dao Fruit can be formed】
...
The long-lost Dao Fruit panel appeared.
Li Che seemed to hear the sound of the Dao Tree rustling, each leaf containing the essence of a world.
Li Che's eyes opened and closed, and his mood improved.
After killing the Black Ox Demon God and fighting with many God Tribulation Venerables, the Dragon-Elephant Diamond Dao Fruit reached LV7 and its growth became very significant, reaching 35% maturity!
This feedback from the Dao Fruit's enlightenment filled Li Che with surging emotions, and he felt a strong urge to act.
Next, the most significant improvement was in the Chess Sage's Dao Guo and the Painted Immortal's Dao Guo. After Li Che entered Qitian City, the usage of these two Dao Guo had evidently increased.
Now, both had crossed the 90% maturity threshold, especially the Painted Immortal Dao Guo, which had fought to the death with the Black Ox Demon God and exhausted its foundation in a single battle.
