Chapter 523: Gods Follow, Immortals Defy - Wǔ Xiān Unextinguished, the Great Dao’s Boat Breaks and Rebuilds [Monthly Votes] (Part 2)
The rolling black clouds that had covered the sky also began to disappear.
The oppressive pressure of the heavens and earth dissipated instantly.
Lü Qiankun, Feng Zhiqi, and others felt as if they were about to collapse, gasping for breath, a natural reaction to the sudden release of immense pressure.
Li Che stepped through the void, ripples spreading around him, but his divine aura was completely concealed.
He seemed to have transformed into an ordinary mortal, and a divine light and immortal aura slowly began to float around his face.
Li Che was slightly taken aback.
He couldn't help but think that his current appearance was somewhat similar to that of the Grand Superintendent and the emperor.
Li Che's eyebrows twitched slightly. A long-standing doubt in his mind was finally resolved. The divine light and immortal aura that had always obscured the faces of the emperor and the Grand Superintendent must have been the effect of the Golden Aura Robe.
"Elder Li!"
Seeing Li Che, who had stepped through the void and appeared with a divine and extraordinary aura, even Lü Qiankun couldn't help but become solemn, a sense of reverence in his eyes.
That reverence stemmed from respect for his immense power.
Feng Zhiqi, Zhao Fangzhou, Nan Lihuo, and others were even more moved, their faces filled with awe and amazement.
Li Che nodded slightly, showing a warm smile to these familiar faces.
He had seen the genuine concern and sorrow they had shown for him and Xi Xi by the river.
Li Che's gaze fell on Nan Lihuo. He flicked his finger, and a thread of Fivefold Heart Divinity entered Nan Lihuo's body, helping to repair the damage caused by his injuries and ensuring a smooth path for his future cultivation.
As for Feng Zhi Qi, Zhao Fangzhou, and the others, Li Che also provided them with guidance.
Feng Zhi Qi was especially shaken, his powerful blood qi boiling and surging. His third eye opened and closed, actually managing to activate the Heavenly Gate. A mighty surge of divine essence poured in, merging with his body and propelling Feng Zhi Qi from just reaching the peak of the Fourth Opening Wu Saint to becoming a top-tier peak Wu Saint who had successfully opened the Heavenly Gate!
"Thank you, Elder Li!"
The faces of the crowd were filled with ecstatic joy, their expressions both respectful and grateful.
Even Lu Qiankun received Li Che's guidance, his divine essence skyrocketing as he gained insight into the path of advancement at the Second Calamity Divine Tribulation stage.
After showering everyone with his wisdom, Li Che's gaze turned deep and thoughtful as he looked back at the surging Nine Dragons River.
This was the place where Xi Xi had parted ways with him.
It was a place Li Che could never forget.
Jiutian Shidi...
He, Li Che, would eventually ascend there!
After bidding farewell to everyone, Li Che clenched the flying thunder chess piece in his hand, and in an instant, he vanished.
He directly crossed vast mountains and rivers, reappearing in Qianyuan Dao City.
At the entrance of Qianyuan Divine Sect.
In the Disciple City.
Zhang Ya sat quietly in her chair, her face dazed and lost in thought.
Li Qingshan, Mu Po Po, Jiao Shaoqiu, and others had gathered in the courtyard, looking at the dazed Zhang Ya, unsure of what to say.
The news of the battle's outcome in Jin Guang City had already been relayed back.
A divine war had erupted, and in the Ghost Deficiency realm, there had even been a god's intervention, involving an Immortal Divine Being.
However, the difference between an Immortal Divine Being and a god was not clear to everyone. All they knew was that Xi Xi had entered Jiutian Shidi, and Li Che, in order to gain power, had willingly accepted the divine essence, transforming into a god, his fate unknown.
But it was well-known that gods could not appear in the mortal world.
Even if Li Che had not died in the divine war, he could not return to the mortal realm.
Unless Zhang Ya entered the Ghost Deficiency realm, but with her cultivation, she could not survive and live there for long.
Unconsciously, she found herself separated from her husband and daughter by the heavens and the earth.
Zhang Ya seemed to have been drained of her soul, her whole body numb and dazed.
Mu Po Po sighed softly, while Li Qingshan gritted his teeth, his eyes slightly reddened, but he was helpless. He was already far behind Li Che's pace, even if he was a Hell Cat.
"Li Che is not dead..."
Li Qingshan, being a Hell Cat, was the only one who could confirm this. After all, he still possessed the Hell Mirror of Divine Communication, which could inform him that Li Che was still alive.
However, even if he was alive, Li Che could not return to the mortal world.
The atmosphere in the courtyard was somewhat somber.
Suddenly.
A gentle breeze blew by, and the sound of wind chimes tinkling seemed to echo.
Everyone felt a terrifying pressure appear and then vanish, causing a chill to run down their spines.
Their gazes suddenly focused, and they all looked toward the center of the courtyard.
There, standing tall and slender, was a figure in a black robe embroidered with golden lotuses, his face obscured by divine essence and immortal aura. Despite this, everyone immediately recognized him as Li Che!
"Wife, I'm back."
Li Che's eyes were gentle as he looked at Zhang Ya, who seemed to have lost her soul, his heart aching for her.
Zhang Ya suddenly stood up, her eyes instantly brimming with tears. In the next moment, she rushed toward Li Che like a fledgling returning to its nest, quickly colliding into his embrace.
Tears streamed down her face, soaking his clothes, and she buried her head in his chest, her body trembling slightly.
"I thought... husband... you would never come back..."
Zhang Ya wept bitterly.
Li Che gently stroked his wife's hair, his Divine Spirit Thought slowly spreading out, soothing Zhang Ya's emotions.
In the courtyard.
Li Qingshan, Mu Po Po, and the others, seeing Li Che's return, felt the heavy stone in their hearts finally lift.
They exchanged glances, said nothing more, and turned to leave, giving the couple some time alone.
After calming Zhang Ya for a while, her eyes were still red and puffy. The couple sat under the eaves, a gentle breeze stirring the peach tree in the courtyard, causing its leaves to rustle softly.
Zhang Ya leaned against Li Che's shoulder, listening quietly as he recounted everything.
"Xi Xi has gone with Lao Ban to Jiutian Shidi, to train there. Lao Ban and Dog Grandpa are very powerful, and Third Prince is also an extremely strong entity. With their protection, Xi Xi is very safe."
"Once our cultivation reaches a sufficiently powerful level, we will enter Jiutian Shidi to find Xi Xi and be reunited with her."
Li Che spoke softly, his tone relaxed.
"Hmm, I believe in you, Husband."
Zhang Ya naturally knew that entering the Jiutian Shidi would not be an easy feat. She was also aware that Xi Xi's identity involved many terrifying beings.
Those Immortal Divine Beings would be extremely difficult to deal with.
However, Zhang Ya had complete faith in Li Che.
She believed in the head of the household, that Li Che could lead them from Fei Lei City to witness the vast world and the bustling human realm. Her husband's abilities were beyond doubt.
Zhang Ya's admiration and trust were unwavering.
She believed that Li Che would bring happiness to their family, and she trusted her man.
Li Che spent three days with Zhang Ya, and her emotions finally calmed down, recovering from the extreme highs and lows. She returned to her cultivation with renewed vigor, working even harder than before.
Li Che also helped her refine her physical body and strengthen her soul, ensuring that Zhang Ya could progress well in both Martial Arts and divine cultivation.
Time passed bit by bit, and life in the human realm was peaceful.
For the current Li Che, there were few beings that could pose a threat to him.
The human realm was protected by the Heaven and Earth Will to the highest degree. With no Supreme Beings existing and no gods manifesting, it was very safe.
Li Che could now walk the human realm, but he did not immediately seek out the Grand Superintendent. To find the Grand Superintendent, he would have to enter the divine capital.
And if he went to the divine capital, Li Che's purpose would not be as simple as just meeting the Grand Superintendent...
He had to settle accounts with the Da Jing Huang Di.
Thus, Li Che was relaxed and not in a hurry.
Through the Fei Lei chess piece he had left with Xi Xi, he could lock onto and sense her safety.
He was certain that Xi Xi was safe in the Jiutian Shidi.
If Xi Xi were to face a life-threatening situation, the Fei Lei chess piece would react, projecting an image on the Heaven and Earth Chessboard, similar to the warning image when Qitian was in danger.
Therefore, Li Che was relatively at ease.
Xi Xi's entry into the Jiutian Shidi was like a trial, though this trial had many more uncertain factors, which he could not control or sense.
However, this was normal. Li Che was not invincible, and he could not control everything.
Thus, as long as Xi Xi was not in mortal danger, he was not in a rush. Instead, he entered a state of cultivation at a steady pace.
He planned to fully absorb and perfect the gains from his battle.
Mo Cheng Fengdu.
Thunder and wind rumbled.
A massive scroll unfurled, the ink swirling like a pool, constantly changing shape, emitting a terrifying aura. The pressure spread, causing the pebbles on the ground to tremble and rustle.
After a long while, the ink pool paused, and then an extremely fearsome aura swept across the heavens and earth, darkening and oppressing everything.
As if a world-shattering beast had broken free from the ink pool!
[The Fourth Fiend: Bi Luo Mo Chan]
In the Ten Fiends Ink Map, the ink pool rotated, releasing a rolling aura of evil, merging with the Bi Luo Mo Chan transformed from the San Bian Jin Chan.
"Kwa!"
The Bi Luo Mo Chan let out a call, splitting the heavens and earth, the evil aura surging like waves!
Boom!
The massive body slammed into the ground, the thick demonic and evil auras continuously flowing. He displayed an expression of immense joy.
The San Bian Jin Chan, transformed into a world-shattering beast, still maintained a will akin to soul summoning, perhaps a benefit of the god transformation.
"My bloodline is even stronger than the Emperor Toad's! Not only do I have an immortal body, but... I can absorb demon souls to strengthen myself!"
Li Che sat cross-legged on the Sovereign Tower, his black hair dancing like lightning. He glanced at the transformed Bi Luo Mo Chan with a faint look.
The world-shattering beast transformed from a god not only inherited the god's power but also improved upon it.
This made Li Che take the Ten Fiends Ink Map's status more seriously.
The Ten Fiends Ink Map contained a special source of evil, allowing the demon souls fused within to undergo a great transformation and gain the power of evil aura.
In the past, Li Che's cultivation was insufficient, and he needed the Ten Fiends Ink Map to enhance his combat strength, planning to gather the ten fiends as soon as possible.
But now, he felt the preciousness of the ten fiend slots...
"Perhaps, the selection of the ten fiends should be more cautious. Not everyone... has the qualification to become my fiend."
Li Che nodded slightly.
Perhaps, only demon beasts with Immortality bloodlines should be considered for the ten fiend slots to maximize the efficiency of the Ten Fiends Ink Map.
The previous Fan Hai Jiu Ying, Fen Xu Huo Dou, and Guaili Zhuhuai occupied the ten fiend slots, but their foundations were too weak. Although they could improve by absorbing demon souls, their weak foundations determined their limits.
For example, the Fan Hai Jiu Ying's future potential would definitely not match that of the Bi Luo Mo Chan.
Li Che shook his head slightly, ignoring the Bìluò Móchán's intense excitement after transforming into a ferocious beast.
His eyes sparkled, as if interwoven with flowing light.
[Dao Guo: Chess Sage (Level 7, 60%)]
The improvement in the Chess Sage Dao Guo was significant, as Li Che had discovered a special method to refine it.
That method involved utilizing the Will of Heaven and Earth for cultivation.
He would occasionally remove the Golden Aura Robe, allowing the heaven and earth chessboard to face the guillotine of the Will of Heaven and Earth directly...
With the blade hanging overhead, the chessboard was always at risk of being severed, which rapidly increased the maturity of the Chess Sage Dao Guo.
Li Che was very satisfied.
He looked forward to the Chess Sage achieving the sixth transformation. At that point, he might not need to rely on the Golden Aura Robe to walk among the mortal world with his Divine Body.
Of course, that would still require time.
With a flick of his mind, he began to summarize his cultivation.
His current state of cultivation was quite delicate. He had reached the Supreme level on the path of divine martial arts, with a divine aura as vast as any god's. Although he had not yet ignited the Godfire, he possessed the Divine Spirit Thought, placing him in a unique pre-god state. According to the Will of Heaven and Earth, he, Li Che, was already considered a god.
"The Wǔ Xiān path includes the Human Immortal, the Profound Immortal, and the Heavenly Immortal... Among these, the Profound Immortal is equivalent to a god, mastering the profound mysteries of the world and achieving transcendence."
"Gods are divided into Godfire, Dao Fusion, Dao Severing, and Rebirth, and the Profound Immortal should also have specific stages... However, I have not yet reached the Profound Immortal level, and now that I have severed the Wǔ Xiān path, I have no time to explore it further."
"However, my Martial Immortal Golden Body still exists, and perhaps I have a chance to reverse the Deity Path and return to the Path of Martial Immortal!"
"The special nature of the Pure Mind Dao Guo..."
Li Che sat cross-legged at the peak of the Sovereign Tower, with fierce winds howling and ink-black rain pouring down.
"Reversal..."
"Is it possible, or impossible?"
Li Che's eyes sparkled, his heart racing.
"The reason I transformed into a Divine Body is that pure martial blood and qi were infused with divinity, turning into divine blood and qi..."
"However, all my divinity has been converted into the Fivefold Heart Divinity, pure and flawless..."
"Can I gather and extract all the Fivefold Heart Divinity from my blood and qi, allowing my blood and qi to return to their original pure martial state?"
"From the stance of a god, can I reverse and become a Wǔ Xiān?"
Li Che took a deep breath. This idea, once it emerged, became increasingly uncontrollable.
He recalled the words of the master of the Pure Mind Dao Guo.
The next moment, Li Che acted without hesitation.
The flesh between his eyebrows split open, and a beam of light burst forth, shooting into the sky. Within the beam of light, a heart was beating!
With each beat, explosive shockwaves radiated outward!
The Qiqiao Linglong Heart!
Li Che's Divine Spirit Thought surged, and instantly, countless threads of Divine Spirit Thought intertwined to form a solitary boat!
The Wugou Heart Dao Vessel!
The Dao Vessel rose into the sky, circling the Wugou Heart, swishing and swashing...
Gradually, a faint shadow of the Long River appeared beneath the Wugou Heart Dao Vessel, enveloping the Qiqiao Linglong Heart!
Li Che's eyes instantly turned an endless white.
He began to reverse the divine blood and qi throughout his body, extracting the divinity that had been infused into his blood and qi...
Li Che let out a long howl.
His body shook violently, every inch of flesh and every cell trembling intensely, as if experiencing millions of vibrations in an instant!
Bang—!!
Li Che opened his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of blood!
The blood instantly evaporated into a blood mist.
Li Che's body rapidly withered, becoming nothing but skin and bones!
Only his eyes remained brilliant!
Li Che slowly raised his emaciated arms, the skin hanging loosely on his bones like laundry on a line.
He suddenly clapped his palms together.
On the sagging skin, gradually...
Purple primordial dragon-elephant flames began to intertwine and emerge.
Beneath the skin, specks of golden light burst forth, revealing the Wǔ Xiān golden bones...
They were regenerating, glowing and shining!
The surrounding crimson blood mist swirled and boiled, as if scorched by intense heat!
"The Dao boat sails, breaking and then rebuilding!"
"Following the path leads to divinity, reversing it... leads to immortality!"
"Come!"
