Chapter 486: The Father's Love Melts the Ice Mountain, Someone Reaches the Flag Before Ah Che (Part 2)
The primordial power of the original Dao Jie began to intertwine around his body.
The divine nature within the bizarre temple seemed to stir slightly.
On the altar...
The Divine Condor of Perfect Dao Manifestation Trinity-Eye True Lord seemed to tremble, and the bizarre mist above it intertwined and tore open.
The gaze from those upright pupils seemed to slowly shift.
It fell upon the figure seated in meditation.
Gradually... strange.
...
...
Within the celestial chessboard, the scene intertwined.
The bizarre mist surged, creating a hazy sight, but due to Li Che leaving the Fei Lei Qi Zi on Lian Gonggong's body, he could capture the scene from a distance, clearly seeing through the Guique even from afar.
Li Che's Martial Immortal will captured this scene, his heart as calm as a well.
He naturally intended to seize the flag, but he was waiting for the right opportunity and needed to make thorough preparations.
Because this time, seizing the flag meant he had to venture deep into the Guique.
Even with his current Martial Immortal battle prowess, the dangers within the Guique were enough to devour a Martial Immortal.
After all, within the Guique, there were few restrictions on the power of Supreme Beings, and even divine beings could reveal their shadows...
Li Che was only at the Martial Immortal realm.
If he encountered a Supreme Being, he would likely have to retreat.
One Mistake, One Strikethrough, One Aspect...
Therefore, Li Che needed to first confirm who the powerful figures were on this trip.
Were there hidden powerhouses? Were there Supreme Beings secretly observing?
Li Che had high expectations and yearned for the Juxian Xuan Flag, wanting to master this divine weapon and pair it with the Juxian Huang Flag.
Obtaining all the Juxian Flags was not an easy task, even for the emperor, who only had the Juxian Xuan Flag and Juxian Di Flag in his possession.
However, Li Che was not picky, and since the emperor was willing to offer the Juxian Flags, Li Che naturally dared to seize them!
Moreover, Li Che had learned from Lian Gonggong about the emperor's murderous intentions towards the Tian Dan Shen Zong, and one of the reasons for lending out the Juxian Flags was to lure out that Supreme Being.
Aside from dealing with the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld, there was also the plan to annihilate the Tian Dan Shen Zong.
"Xi Xi has just become the leader of the Tian Dan Shen Zong. How can we allow such a thing to happen?"
Li Che had promised to ensure Xi Xi's peace of mind, so he wouldn't just make empty promises.
Li Che was also making plans regarding the Dajing Court.
Xie Yunshen, now Li Che's captive, was working hard to gather the Qi Yun Jin Lian of the eleven paths of Dajing.
Currently, the Qi Yun Jin Lian of two divine sects, Tian Dan Shen Zong and Xuan Fu Shen Zong, had been gathered.
Xie Yunshen, the Grand Preceptor of Dajing, was another confidant of the Dajing Emperor. The emperor had found him among a pile of mud and sand, recognizing his potential like a pearl in the rough. The emperor had never doubted Xie Yunshen's loyalty.
The emperor even bestowed upon Xie Yunshen the national fortune of Dajing, hoping that he would succeed in conquering the eleven divine sects and gather the national fortune, forming the twelve-grade Shan He Qi Yun Jin Lian!
That was the emperor's ambition...
It was also Li Che's ambition, and the curse of the Prison Lotus on Xi Xi was powerful and mysterious.
This time, Li Che even witnessed the power of the Prison Lotus curse eroding Xi Xi's will, wanting her to accept the pain of her parents' tragic deaths, her companions' demise, and her sect's destruction, thus turning her into the Prison Lotus Girl.
Therefore, Li Che needed to do something to suppress these curses.
He had specifically asked Qitian, who had discussed this with the gods of the Qitian Temple for a long time.
One of the things he learned was how to suppress the Prison Lotus curse within Xi Xi.
At that time, the Qitian Temple God's expression was extremely complex. In fact, the Prison Lotus camp didn't want the Prison Lotus Girl to resist the power of the curse.
Because only by merging with the power of the curse and accepting her fate as the Prison Lotus Girl could she truly become the ruler of the Prison Lotus camp.
However, accepting the Prison Lotus curse was an extremely cruel and ruthless matter.
So, Qitian revealed a solution.
"Use the power of the twelve-grade Shan He Qi Yun Jin Lian to balance the power of the curse..."
Li Che slowly opened his eyes in the temple of the Divine Condor of Perfect Dao Manifestation Trinity-Eye True Lord.
Gathering the twelve-grade Shan He Qi Yun Jin Lian was not an easy task, but for Xi Xi, Li Che was willing to strive.
Therefore, Li Che didn't want to alert his enemies prematurely. At least, before gathering the Qi Yun Jin Lian, he wouldn't make any moves.
The national fortune of Dajing played a significant role in the twelve-grade Shan He Qi Yun Jin Lian and must be the last to be collected, forming a crucial part of the eleven Qi Yun Jin Lian.
"The Dajing Emperor..."
Li Che's eyes flickered.
In fact, behind the Dajing royalty stood the dark heavenly court of the divine camp, and Li Che and the court were ultimately on opposing sides, an unavoidable conflict.
Standing up, his ink-colored robe fluttering, Li Che clenched his five fingers and took out a cute Mengniu mask, covering his face with it.
Then, clenching his five fingers again, the Fei Lei Qi Zi appeared in his palm, gripped by him.
His entire person vanished from the original spot.
When he reappeared, he was already at the Xuan Fu Shen Zong's mountain gate in Qingyun Dao.
Xie Yunshen, who was quietly writing on the mountain peak of the divine sect, immediately sensed Li Che's arrival and hurriedly stood up, bowing in greeting.
By his side, the leader of Xiaoling Yin Temple, Huangmei Great Dharma Master, also bowed respectfully.
After the Xuan Fu Shen Zong was conquered, it was taken over by Xie Yunshen, and after gathering the Qi Yun Jin Lian, he arranged for people to control Qingyun Dao City.
The thick bloody smell couldn't be dispelled.
Xuan Fu Lao Zu sacrificed the entire mountain gate to gain the cultivation of the One Disaster Three Tribulations, which many considered extremely ridiculous.
However, for cultivators who couldn't see their path, it was a desperate struggle.
It was an inhumane act out of helplessness.
But Xuan Fu Lao Zu didn't deserve sympathy; he deserved to be killed.
Li Che, wearing the Mengniu mask, stood tall like a tower on the mountain peak, letting the wind blow past him.
Xie Yunshen quietly followed behind.
"Have you decided on the next stop?"
Li Che asked calmly.
To gather the twelve-grade Shan He Qi Yun Jin Lian, Li Che couldn't do it alone; he needed Xie Yunshen's help.
So, Li Che also attached great importance to Xie Yunshen, and even during this Divine Capture Grand Feast, he allowed Xie Yunshen to absorb a significant amount of Divine Capture energy.
The current Xie Yunshen, whose cultivation was originally not that powerful, was forcibly elevated. As he continued to refine the Divine Capture energy, there was a possibility that his cultivation would break through to the Divine Tribulation upon its completion.
This was something Xie Yunshen never dared to imagine in his lifetime, as his innate talent was truly lacking.
However, Li Che gave him hope and allowed him to realize it.
Xie Yunshen, dressed in a Confucian robe, wore a silk scarf on his head and gently waved a feather fan. His eyes shone brilliantly, and he was filled with unparalleled enthusiasm: "Master, the next target for our expedition is the Xiaoling Temple in Xiling!"
Li Che was slightly startled and couldn't help but wonder, "Why Xiaoling Temple?"
Is he going to take action against the top three Divine Sects so soon?! The Zifu Divine Sect, Zizhulin, and Xiaoling Temple—these three major Divine Sects were all extraordinary. When Qitian City was reopened, all three sects sent powerful cultivators.
Among them, the Zifu Divine Sect had such a deep foundation that it was impossible to see through.
Even the sect master, Zhang Wuji, possessed the combat strength of a Two-Disaster Venerable.
Xiaoling Temple had the backing of the Western Paradise, which was essentially the same as having the support of the Black Sumeru. It was also one of the forces suppressing the gods and could not be underestimated.
Xie Yunshen had chosen to target Xiaoling Temple so early, which was something Li Che hadn't anticipated.
Xie Yunshen gently waved his feather fan and said, "After breaking the Tiandan Divine Sect and Xuanfu Divine Sect, the imperial army's expedition has intimidated many Divine Sects."
"Xiaoling Temple is located in Xiling, bordering the Western Paradise, and even has the Western Paradise as its backing. Now that we have defeated two Divine Sects, we have some deterrence, but not enough to make Xiaoling Temple give up Xiling and merge it into the Western Paradise, abandoning this sharp sword piercing into the heart of Dajing."
"If we continue to conquer Divine Sects, Xiaoling Temple will surely sense something amiss. It's like beating the grass to startle the snake, allowing Xiaoling Temple to borrow the power of the Western Paradise, which will only make things more troublesome."
Xie Yunshen explained the pros and cons to Li Che.
Li Che nodded thoughtfully.
"Good, we'll follow your plan," Li Che praised with a smile, not interfering with Xie Yunshen's expedition plan.
"Master, rest assured. For the young master, I will do my utmost!" Xie Yunshen said, feeling the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and bowed deeply.
Li Che nodded.
After a few more words of encouragement, Li Che decided to leave. Since he had chosen to trust Xie Yunshen, he would let him handle it freely. After all, Xie Yunshen was the expert in matters like the Mountain-River Golden Lotus and the expedition to conquer and break sects.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
The atmosphere in Qianyuan Dao City became increasingly festive, reminiscent of the lively atmosphere during the Spring Festival. Every household in the city was adorned with red paper, creating a joyous atmosphere. Even the long streets were decorated with lanterns to celebrate the upcoming Inheritance Ceremony.
The various Divine Sects also gave face, sending their elders with gifts in person, showing great respect to the Qianyuan Divine Sect.
Even the mysterious Zifu Divine Sect and Nanhai Zizhulin sent their gifts.
The Divine Sects were adorned with flowers and banners, creating a vibrant and lively atmosphere.
Taibai Peak.
The Inheritance Ceremony was held on Taibai Peak. Representatives from various forces were seated in a spacious area on the peak, each taking their designated positions.
Li Che and his wife, Zhang Ya, also sat in a forward position.
As the parents of the new sect master, their status was extremely noble, and their seating couldn't be too far back, although it wasn't the main position.
Li Qing Shan, Mu Po Po, Old Chen, and others were seated a bit further away.
Dong—
Dong—
The bell rang out, its sound echoing like waves and tides, rippling through the void and spreading throughout the city.
The Inheritance Ceremony officially began under the hosting of the third elder, Ding Zi, as the first elder, Fang Hanshu, was in Qitian City reopening the Qitian Temple, and the second elder, Zhao Fangzhou, was not familiar with such matters. So, Lu Taibai arranged for Ding Zi to host the ceremony.
Disciples of the Qianyuan Divine Sect gathered at Taibai Peak.
The spacious Taibai Peak was now filled with people, making it seem a bit crowded.
However, the atmosphere was incredibly lively. The disciples had no complaints about the new sect master's succession because Xi Xi was well-deserving.
After all, although Xi Xi was only eight years old, her martial arts cultivation had already reached the level of a Martial Saint!
Although a Martial Saint's cultivation was still a bit lacking to take over a major sect, Xi Xi's young age and the support of Li Che, who had shown his prowess in the sect protection battle, made up for it.
The ceremony was elaborate, but no one complained. This was the ceremony and prestige that the succession of a major sect's leader should have, and every Inheritance Ceremony of a major sect was conducted in this manner.
Due to Xi Xi's young age, many of the ceremonies were simplified.
Zhang Ya held Li Che's arm, watching Xi Xi, dressed in a solemn robe, as she walked onto the high platform, attracting everyone's attention. Her eyes were filled with pride and joy.
"Husband, our Xi Xi has grown up!" Zhang Ya said softly.
Li Che smiled, "It's still early. She's just a little brat, even if she becomes the sect master, she's still a little brat, haha!"
Zhang Ya playfully punched Li Che's arm.
Li Che's smile gradually faded, and he looked at Xi Xi, who was as serious as a little adult, with a few more glances. He slowly exhaled and closed his eyes slightly.
The next moment, only the painting of the immortal's body remained, while Li Che himself had already appeared in the mysterious temple of the Perfect Dao Manifesting Trinity-Eye True Lord.
The candlelight flickered and swayed.
Li Che's expression turned solemn.
His body trembled, and his powerful blood energy surged, as if flames were intertwining and burning within him.
Li Che smiled slightly, clenched his five fingers, and placed a cute Mengxiang Mask over his face, releasing a surge of demonic energy that completely changed his identity.
He put on a conical hat and changed out of the golden lotus ink robe.
Li Che had originally wanted to watch Xi Xi's Inheritance Ceremony, but he had other matters to attend to.
As a father, it was important to witness his child being honored.
However, silently protecting his child's growth and eliminating potential threats at their inception was equally crucial.
In fact, he didn't really need to wait for that moment.
But the situation had changed slightly beyond expectations, so Li Che couldn't wait any longer.
His divine sense stirred slightly.
The celestial chessboard hung above his head.
Li Che looked up and saw the flying thunder chess piece placed on Lian Gonggong, which instantly reflected the scene of escorting the Juxian Flag within the Guique.
In the scene...
The eerie mist was intertwined, but one could still clearly sense the solemn atmosphere and...
The tense atmosphere was like a drawn sword!
It was...
Someone had taken action before Li Che, intending to seize the flag!
