Chapter 471: The Solitary Star of the Heavenly Executioner, The Daughter of Hell Lotus Has a Father,
Chapter 471: The Solitary Star of the Heavenly Executioner, The Daughter of Hell Lotus Has a Father, and Qitian's Guardian Devours the Essence of Heaven and Earth (Part 1)
For Li Che, restraining the deity, Fang Hanshu, was not a difficult task.
After all, Fang Hanshu's cultivation was not exceptionally high, and even with the assistance of the Grand Inspector's heavenly will power, it was not his own strength.
So, Li Che easily accomplished the restraint.
Countless ink-colored rays of light intertwined, creating a hazy and surging 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 around, as Li Che had forcefully pulled Fang Hanshu from the netherworld, restraining him.
Fang Hanshu's beard fluttered, showing a mix of astonishment, realization, and understanding, as he gazed at Li Che with sparkling eyes.
He finally understood why those cultivators who had entered the Ink City and the Capital of the Netherworld had betrayed the ones they originally served.
He also understood why the powerful cultivators had turned their backs on their original factions and resolutely joined the Netherworld as their new allies.
It was because this method and power were truly terrifying, capable of forcing submission from the soul.
The most crucial point was that the Netherworld's many evils... were all just Li Che himself.
This force that had stirred up chaos throughout the world, from beginning to end, was just a single person.
All speculations and deductions were merely empty.
The idea that the Netherworld had a hidden backer, possibly the Hell Lotus faction, was nothing but a joke.
After all, the gods of the Hell Lotus faction had not yet awakened, and only Qitian had just been reborn. How could such a Hell Lotus be the power behind the Netherworld?
Fang Hanshu was amazed, his scholarly beliefs completely shattered.
What an incredible Netherworld...
It was indeed an unbelievable Netherworld.
Fang Hanshu's beard fluttered as he stood up, clasped his fists, and bowed, "Fang Hanshu, paying respects to the lord."
Li Che sat in the ink-colored leisure pavilion, tilting his head slightly and glancing at Fang Hanshu, "Old Fang, don't play these tricks on your own people."
He took out the jade talisman given to him by Fang Xin Yuan and solemnly handed it to Fang Hanshu.
"This is a legacy left to you by the Fang family's ancestor. Because of your persistence in pursuing the ancestor's will and protecting Qitian, the ancestor has left you with a legacy."
"This is the legacy of a Supreme Being."
Li Che spoke earnestly, emphasizing the importance of this item, which could cause a great stir in the outside world and make countless people chase after it.
Upon hearing this, Fang Hanshu's expression became complex, "Has the ancestor... fallen?"
Li Che briefly described the situation, "I'm sorry, the Fang family's ancestor transformed into the Temple Guardian Corpse King, sacrificing his soul. I couldn't restrain the deity and save his life."
In fact, even if he could have restrained the deity, the success rate might still have been very low.
Because the Fang family's ancestor was, after all, a Supreme Being.
And compared to a Supreme Being, Li Che's current combat power, although at the level of two disasters and one tribulation, was still far inferior.
Restraining a deity at the level of two disasters and two tribulations, or even three tribulations, was still possible, but restraining a Supreme Being at the level of three disasters was extremely difficult, with a very high failure rate.
"There's no need to apologize, it has nothing to do with you."
Fang Hanshu sighed, his tears flowing freely, as he admired the Fang family ancestor's unparalleled loyalty and respect for his teacher and the Dao.
Boom!
Li Che also looked up, and the heavenly chessboard stretched across the sky above Ink City, displaying a scene on its surface.
Fang Hanshu also raised his head, and after reminiscing about the ancestor for a while, he suddenly realized that he had already died. If it weren't for the lord's restraint, he would have completely dissipated into the world.
In fact, Fang Hanshu had anticipated this day, which was why he had borrowed power from the Grand Inspector. He knew that in the entire Da Jing, only two people could help him obtain this power and ascend.
One was the Grand Inspector of the Imperial Observatory, and the other was the Great Wu God of Wu Shen Mountain.
Fang Hanshu couldn't fathom the true strength of the Grand Inspector.
Fang Hanshu had long prepared for his death, and sacrificing himself for a noble cause was a choice he had made long ago.
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 in the scene, and couldn't help but sigh and exclaim.
Qitian's Temple God had awakened, and with the power of a deity, he stood tall across the nine heavens. The enormous six-winged golden cicada was also incredibly terrifying.
It was as if a gigantic palm was constantly searching and flipping, trying to locate the Qitian Temple God, who had transformed into golden light, in order to suppress it!
This was a battle between deities, where powerful divine auras clashed and the forces of the Dao intertwined.
Even such an eruption of power was earth-shattering, and they were not yet true deities.
Qitian had just awakened, absorbing the essence, energy, divine nature, and Dao essence of five Supreme Beings, restoring some of his divine might.
And the six-winged golden cicada was not the deity of the black Sumeru, but a wisp of the divine aura of the Golden Cicada Child...
Even so, their confrontation was already earth-shattering!
Boom!!!
The inner city of Qitian could not conceal this battle, and the terrifying battle shockwaves spread to the outer city!
Outer City.
Many powerful cultivators stood in the city, their bodies trembling, as they looked up and saw that the sky above the inner city of Qitian seemed to have shattered into pieces!
A hidden scene was exposed, leaving everyone in awe.
"A battle between deities?!"
"Qitian has awakened and is fiercely clashing with a deity who has crossed over from the Wiles Pavilion!"
"Terrifying..."
At this moment, the entire outer city of Qitian was in an uproar because the battle between deities, which they had witnessed, was no longer just an imaginary scene.
Combined with the surging divine might that was spreading, even the divine nature within the bodies of the Divine Tribulation Cultivators was crumbling.
Lu Taibai, Lu Qiankun, and other powerful cultivators trembled, watching with a mix of awe and anticipation.
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 glow. The golden staff in its hand shone with an extremely bright light, and with a few somersaults, it transformed into countless shadows, striking with the staff as if the sky was collapsing and the earth was sinking.
It was an unparalleled fighting stance!
The six-winged golden cicada, resembling a giant Buddha's palm, was pierced through the palm, and black blood flowed from the huge hole.
The loud cicada's cry echoed from the inner city of Qitian, spreading to the outer city, and even beyond the city, reaching a thousand li away, like the sound of cicadas in the summer, signaling the end of their lives.
Boom!
The wings of the six-winged golden cicada were shattered.
They were smashed to pieces by Qitian's staff.
It was as if the sky itself had been pierced, and the peerless Qitian, an invincible fighting saint, had burned through the essence of the five Supreme Beings, their blood and bones, and struck with a staff that seemed to pierce through the river of time!
"Wukong..."
"Did you awaken early to protect the daughter of Hell Lotus?"
You will regret this... Your early awakening will only provoke the various camps of the gods..."
The Six-Winged Golden Cicada was crumbling, shattering inch by inch!
Behind the collapsing cicada, a figure of a Buddhist monk seemed to emerge, palms pressed together in prayer, chanting softly.
Old Monkey Qi Tian lifted the Ruyi Golden Hoop Stick, having exhausted his supreme power, he seemed to age countless years, his once-proud spine now slightly curved.
Monkey fur fluttered in the wind.
Standing on a cloud, his golden eyes scanned the surroundings.
"No matter, come at me."
"Let's see if I, the Old Monkey, will be afraid."
Jin Chanzi pressed his palms together, and behind him, an enormous cicada pattern covered the sky and blocked out the sun.
Slowly, like withering flames, it disappeared between heaven and earth.
...
...
The world was quiet.
Both inside and outside of Qi Tian City, an eerie silence prevailed.
The terrifying divine aura had vanished without a trace, but every cultivator was left gasping for breath, having witnessed a clash between divine beings. Although it was just a fleeting encounter, the battle scene was awe-inspiring and shocking!
This battle was destined to be recorded in the annals of history, becoming a fight that countless powerful beings would reminisce about.
The inner city of Qi Tian was already deserted.
In the outer city, everyone was talking about it. They couldn't contain their excitement as one of the supreme beings from the gods' camp had met an untimely end, perishing within the inner city of Qi Tian.
Even a god from the gods' camp had personally descended and fought against Qi Tian, but they were still defeated by Qi Tian, solidifying Qi Tian's reputation as an invincible Great Sage.
Lu Taibai stretched his neck, gazing at the inner city of Qi Tian, where the cracks had healed and the city had recovered.
He dared not enter the inner city, but his heart was filled with mixed emotions.
"Old Fang and Ah Che are both in the inner city of Qi Tian... I wonder how they fared?"
"I hope they're safe."
Lu Taibai sighed softly, unable to do anything more.
Hundreds of miles outside the outer city of Qi Tian.
Zhang Wuji, holding the silver carving, witnessed the end of the battle between the gods within the inner city of Qi Tian and exhaled in relief.
The revival of the Qi Tian Temple God would soon bring about a significant change in the world! At the very least, the actions of the gods' camp would no longer be as peaceful as before.
Zhang Wuji shook his head slightly, holding the silver carving as he shattered the space and stepped into it.
His sigh echoed endlessly, for when he arrived, there were many Two Calamity Tribulation Venerables, but in the end, only he remained...
"The Hell Lotus is indeed ferocious..."
"No wonder the ancestor said that when the Hell Lotus blooms, the Blood Tribulation arises. This Hell Lotus... is the tribulation of the gods in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!"
"Where should I go now?"
"Opposing the Hell Lotus is too dangerous, and joining it is also risky..."
"Sigh, even with the Divine Wave approaching, it's like walking on thin ice."
His voice echoed in the shattered space.
"Difficult, difficult, difficult..."
...
...
The commotion in the outside world.
Li Che was also aware of this, as he had left a flying thunder chess piece on Lu Taibai, allowing him to clearly understand the situation in the outer city of Qi Tian.
However, after confirming that the Black Bull Demon God had not yet returned from the inner city and that many of the Two Calamity Tribulation Venerables from various factions had perished within Qi Tian's inner city, the atmosphere in the outer city became more harmonious.
Everyone seemed to have reached a state of mutual peace.
Nevertheless, no one had left, as they were waiting for the disturbances from the battle between the gods in the inner city to subside before entering to explore the resources once again.
Within the Ink City of the Capital of the Netherworld.
Li Che sat in a black-tiled pavilion, his gaze slowly withdrawing, and he exhaled softly.
His mood instantly relaxed, and he felt relieved.
Qi Tian had indeed emerged victorious.
However, he did not leave the Ink City immediately, as although the battle between the gods had ended, Qi Tian seemed to be standing in the void, sensing something.
Li Che took this opportunity to organize his gains from this encounter.
With a thought, he bid farewell to Fang Hanshu, and his entire person vanished from the pavilion.
Fang Hanshu didn't find this strange, as after becoming a Deity Binder, he had already understood Li Che's mysteriousness and power.
It turned out that Li Che was even more powerful than he had imagined!
Humm—
The 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 Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame on his head had disappeared. His jet-black, sturdy hair lashed at the void, and his translucent skin revealed golden blood coursing through golden veins, rumbling like thunder.
His entire body trembled violently, his blood boiling, and a scorching aura rose from his body.
In the inner city of Qi Tian, when Li Che faced the Black Bull Demon God, he had exhausted all his trump cards. In the end, he broke through his martial arts, crossed the Golden Heaven Gate, entered the Heavenly Gate, obtained the Dao Yun Shen Jing, and achieved the status of 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 tribulations of heaven and earth's will in the mortal world and attempt to break through to truly enter the Martial Immortal realm.
If one breaks through to the War Saint level using the path of martial arts, they become a Martial Deity and undergo the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations.
On the other hand, if one breaks through using pure martial arts, they become a Martial Immortal, but Li Che didn't know what path he was on or what kind of tribulations he would face.
"Martial Immortal is just a legend in the era before the emergence of the Wicked Temple and the release of divine will."
Li Che sat cross-legged in the Dominating Tower, his jet-black hair dancing wildly.
Within his chest, numerous Dao Fruits pulsated.
Before him, golden light flowed like condensed incense smoke, slowly drifting by.

...
The long-lost Dao Fruit panel appeared.
Li Che seemed to hear the rustling of the Dao Tree, as each leaf seemed to contain the essence of a world.
With his eyes opening and closing, Li Che felt elated.
After killing the Black Bull Demon God and clashing with many Tribulation Venerables, the Long Xiang Jin Gang Dao Fruit had reached LV7 and its growth rate had become very significant, reaching 35% maturity!
This was the result of the profound enlightenment from the Dao Fruit!
