Chapter 553: Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit Completes Seven Transformations, Martial Arts Long River Sees Ten Thousand Warriors Forge Their Dao Bodies (Part 1)
Rumble—
The entire Spirit Mountain Island shook violently, as if the earth was splitting and mountains crumbling.
Li Che's jet-black hair danced wildly as he stood with his hands behind his back, bursting through the swirling dust like a cannonball and charging to the peak of Spirit Mountain.
Tuoba Long watched with wide eyes, admiration evident in his gaze.
He was deeply shaken. Where did this incredible person, Mo Che, come from?
He was so powerful, showing no reverence for the Immortal God.
That was the Immortal God, the Nine Heavens Supreme Deity, the ultimate existence at the peak. Even an Earth Immortal would never dare to challenge the Path-Cutting Realm!
Yet, Li Che did just that!
He not only killed a First-Cutting God of Hei Xumi but also loudly declared he would not bow to the Immortal God, coming instead to demand a debt from the Immortal!
It was utterly domineering!
How could the Nine Heavens Supreme Deity have such an amazing god?
Tuoba Long's heart raced with excitement and yearning!
Of course, what stunned him the most...
was that breathtakingly magnificent strike from the sky, a terrifying blow that shattered the First-Cutting God, unleashing the Immortal power within a Near-Immortal Artifact.
"Heaven and Earth One Blade Slash!"
"So domineering..."
Tuoba Long took a deep breath, feeling both exhilarated and envious.
That was what he imagined himself to be like in battle.
Unfortunately, Tuoba Long always ended up in a mess during battles, far from being domineering.
A thunderous flash erupted!
It was the result of the three-thousand-fold compressed Thunder Pellet exploding, filling the air with terrifyingly destructive energy.
The First-Cutting God of Hei Xumi's physical body shattered, exploding into pieces.
The fragmented flesh was naturally collected by Li Che.
He also collected the flesh of the other Dao Fusion gods he had killed earlier.
With flesh, he could perform soul summoning.
Even if he didn't need these gods for soul summoning, he could use their flesh to nourish other soul summonings.
The stronger the soul summonings became, the more they could assist Li Che.
The Nine Heavens Supreme Deity was far more dangerous than the mortal world.
Faced with such dangers, Li Che had to strengthen his own foundation.
If he could cultivate an Immortal soul summoning...
it would greatly alleviate the pressure.
However, cultivating an Immortal soul summoning was no easy task. It was extremely difficult to elevate a soul summoning across realms.
With Tuoba Long watching, Li Che couldn't directly perform soul summoning in front of him.
But since the flesh had already been collected, he could perform the summoning later.
With a clenched hand, the divine spear used by the Path-Cutting God trembled, whistling as it shot up into Li Che's grasp.
The moment he grasped it, he felt the True Dragon Will within the spear!
It contained a terrifying dragon soul will!
This was the will of a true dragon. The spear was a Near-Immortal Artifact, crafted from the spine of a half-step Ancestor Dragon, making it of the highest quality.
Holding this spear, Li Che felt his qi and blood being drawn and activated.
Inside his chest, the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit trembled continuously, as if the Dao Fruit's aura was flowing out, rejuvenating the spear.
"Dragon Elephant Vajra, this spear... actually suits me more."
Li Che held the Near-Immortal Artifact spear at an angle.
The Immortal Will within had already been obliterated by the Heaven and Earth One Blade Slash, and Li Che now had complete control over the Near-Immortal Artifact.
His jet-black hair, flowing like a waterfall, continued to hang behind him.
Breaking through the oppressive currents of Spirit Mountain, perhaps because he had killed a Path-Cutting Realm god, he had provoked the Immortal Will.
The Aura of Power within the entire Spirit Mountain Grotto suddenly surged.
Countless currents of energy, almost tangible, continuously descended, striking Li Che's body with great force.
His bones creaked, but his powerful physique remained unyielding.
The great dragon in his spine roared, and the dragon spear in his hand howled, as if he had transformed into an indomitable dragon!
The entire Spirit Mountain Cave Heaven was in turmoil!
...
...
On the seventh island.
Many divine children who were cultivating all felt an extreme pressure, making it impossible to continue. They all stopped their cultivation one by one.
The Sea of Suffering was roiling with massive waves, constantly crashing against the shores.
Xi Xi stood up, her Fenghuo Wheel spinning beneath her feet. She looked into the distance with boundless excitement.
Terrifying battle auras kept coming, and Xi Xi lost all interest in cultivation. Her heart was entirely focused on the distant battle.
When the great battle finally subsided and returned to calm,
a stunning burst of Buddha Light erupted from Spirit Mountain!
"Quick, look! Teacher is starting to climb the mountain!"
Yun Lei was also very excited, his face flushed red as he shouted with enthusiasm.
In his hands, he held the Divine Engineer's mechanical Gatling gun that Li Che had given him. He loved this mechanical weapon so much.
If he could increase its firepower, Yun Lei felt he could even slay a god!
Yun Huang, on the other hand, remained more composed. She was more mature than Yun Lei, but her gaze was also burning with admiration and concern.
"What a radiant Buddha Light... Why is it so intense?"
Yun Huang said worriedly.
"It seems... It seems the Immortal Will on Spirit Mountain has been stimulated and activated!"
Compared to Yun Huang and Yun Lei, Tuoba Li and Tuoba Xiu from Earth Village had more knowledge and experience.
Xi Xi, Yun Huang, and Yun Lei, due to their backgrounds, had less knowledge and experience, and they couldn't recognize the current state of Spirit Mountain!
"Immortal Will?!"
"What's going on? Did Mr. Mo Che try to exchange resources with the Immortal Token, and the Immortal refused?"
"Even the most revered Immortal can't allow credit!"
Xi Xi immediately became furious, her feet on the Fenghuo Wheel, hands on her hips, and she was visibly enraged.
Yun Huang, Yun Lei, and the others couldn't help but be taken aback.
True to form, the daughter of Yulian was indeed domineering, daring to curse even an Immortal!
Tuoba Li and Tuoba Xiu, however, were not surprised. This was just how Xi Xi was, and this was just how the daughter of Yulian was.
Immortal...
When the daughter of Yulian fully matures, it is said... she will cut through Immortality to achieve the Dao!
Now, cursing an Immortal a few times is nothing.
In the sky above, dark clouds rolled like the bottom of a black pot, about to press down to the ground, creating an extremely oppressive and suffocating atmosphere.
However, on Spirit Mountain, thousands upon thousands of Buddha Light beams erupted, extremely brilliant, illuminating the sky!
Slowly, a massive golden Buddha seemed to emerge on Spirit Mountain.
It tore through the dark clouds, extremely dazzling!
The black cloud currents and the golden light formed a stark contrast, making the golden Buddha extremely visually impactful and oppressive!
In the eyes of Xi Xi and the others,
Li Che soared into the sky, like a tiny gnat trying to shake a towering mountain!
They no longer spoke, their hearts completely captivated by the scene before them.
...
...
Boom—!!!
Li Che's third eye trembled, and within his mud pill palace, the Qiqiao Linglong Heart was rapidly pulsating, as countless surges of Purity Heart Divinity wildly burst forth.
The Wugou Heart Divinity was countering the power of the Immortal Will!
This allowed Li Che to remain calm and composed as he broke through the Buddha Light and ascended to the ninth heaven!
The Immortal Will was raging!
Li Che felt it wasn't because he had killed a Path-Cutting god of the Hei Xumi, but because he had used the Nine Symbols of Heaven and Earth Blade, mobilizing the power of three ancient celestial runes to erase the Immortal's power?
But...
No matter how angry you get, you can't owe resources!
Li Che raised the dragon spear in his hand, unleashing the Ancestor Dragon Slaughter Technique!
Stimulated by the dragon spear, the power of the Ancestor Dragon Slaughter Technique kept rising, reaching the master level!
If it progressed further, it would reach the perfected stage!
At that point, this secret technique would be cultivated to its ultimate level by Li Che!
A massive thunder dragon spanned the heavens, filled with overwhelming slaughter!
The radiant golden Buddha struck down at Li Che with a terrifying palm, as if to crush everything and shatter Li Che to pieces!
However, the Ancestor Dragon Slaughter Technique erupted, the dragon spear piercing through the golden palm of the Buddha formed by the Immortal Will.
Countless rays of golden light scattered, like shimmering ripples on a river.
Li Che, bathed in the shattered Buddha Light, landed on the peak of Spirit Mountain.
There, a massive array platform was laid out.
In the center of the array platform, an extremely old monk was seated.
His eyes, turbid yet profound, looked at Li Che.
Li Che landed gracefully, his feet touching the ground, crushing small stones, and he frowned, staring at the old monk.
"More experts?"
"Didn't they say that reaching Spirit Mountain would allow the exchange of resources from the Treasure Cache Token?"
Li Che said coolly.
"Repeatedly blocking me like this, it seems you don't want to exchange the resources. If you can't afford the Thousand Villages Divine Gambling Battle, don't hold it, or you'll just invite ridicule."
Li Che had not expected to encounter someone blocking his way at the mountaintop.
However, the old monk slowly opened his eyes, revealing no hostility or the expected burst of world-shaking slaughter.
"Amitabha."
"Patron, I am here to exchange the resources for the Treasure Cache Tokens."
The old monk spoke calmly.
Upon hearing this, Li Che’s eyebrows raised slightly. With a flick of his finger, the numerous Treasure Cache Tokens Xi Xi had given him fluttered like raindrops before the old monk.
The old monk’s robe billowed, his face etched with deep wrinkles, and his eyes glowed with an intense depth.
It was as if, through the flying Treasure Cache Tokens, he was staring directly at Li Che’s stern face.
It seemed he was trying to see through Li Che’s identity and penetrate his disguise.
However, even when all the Treasure Cache Tokens gathered around the old monk, he did not choose to attack.
This old monk was extremely powerful, and Li Che felt an unprecedented threat.
It was an instinctive sensation, like facing a fierce predator that could tear him to pieces.
The old monk’s cloudy eyes deeply examined Li Che once more before he began exchanging the resources.
The Treasure Cache Tokens contained resources that had been exchanged by the leaders of various ancient villages.
Now, these resources belonged to Li Che, or rather, to the Cloud Peak Village he represented.
The quantity was not small, and the number of Treasure Cache Tokens Li Che had obtained was also considerable. When combined, a vast number of Treasure Cache Tokens cascaded down like an avalanche at Li Che’s mental command.
Li Che tore open a spatial rift with his bare hands, and the Dao Reincarnation space emerged, swallowing all the resources exchanged for the Treasure Cache Tokens.
For Li Che, who had mastered the power of spatial Dao Reincarnation, the range of the Dao Reincarnation space had already expanded to its maximum form.
He effortlessly absorbed all the resources exchanged by the old monk.
"Thank you."
Li Che smiled lightly.
Xi Xi needed a large amount of resources to cultivate, and her participation in the Divine Gambling Battle of a Thousand Villages was to obtain the resources required for her cultivation in the Nine Heavens Supreme Deity.
Now, Li Che had obtained so many resources in one go, enough for Xi Xi to cultivate for a long time.
Unlike the expected disputes and battles, no further conflicts occurred when Li Che ascended the Spirit Mountain.
The old monk seemed to maintain a very delicate balance with Li Che, unwilling to choose combat.
This place was one of the realms controlled by Hei Xumi, and in the highly anticipated Divine Gambling Battle of a Thousand Villages, if they refused to exchange the Treasure Cache Tokens for Li Che, it would damage Hei Xumi’s credibility and the reputation of the Divine Gambling Battle.
Therefore, the god realm expert of Hei Xumi did not choose to act and did not need to.
Hei Xumi would not cheat him out of these resources.
Compared to one of the three major divine factions, Hei Xumi, the resources Li Che obtained from the Treasure Cache Tokens were insignificant.
Thus, Li Che smoothly exchanged the rewards he had obtained from the great slaughter.
The Treasure Cache Tokens were converted into resources, and Li Che did not hesitate to take them from Hei Xumi.
After all, these were resources from the enemy; not taking them would be foolish!
Using the enemy’s resources to strengthen oneself was a highly satisfying matter.
When all the Treasure Cache Tokens were exchanged, Li Che scanned the resources he had obtained, drawing a deep breath.
The quantity was indeed substantial!
These resources would be enough to sustain the cultivation of the ancient village for a long time.
Even more impressively, one of the Dao Essence Crystals contained six Transcendence leaves that continuously unfurled and swayed, impacting Li Che’s mind.
"Six-Leaf Dao Essence Crystal!"
Even Li Che’s eyes lit up.
To be able to offer so many resources as stakes in the Divine Gambling Battle of a Thousand Villages, Hei Xumi was indeed wealthy and powerful.
Humming sounds erupted from the old monk’s body, emitting overwhelming Buddha Light.
"Patron, lay down your sword and attain Buddhahood immediately."
The monk sighed deeply, exhaling.
"But it was clearly you who forced us to take up the sword."
Li Che smiled and replied coolly.
The monk was momentarily stunned, then shook his head with a bitter smile.
On the array platform, the transmission array began to glow.
After about seven or eight breaths, the entire Spirit Mountain realm trembled, and a powerful transmission force erupted, instantly teleporting Li Che away from the Spirit Mountain realm.
After Li Che was teleported away, Tuoba Long finally struggled to climb up the mountain, panting heavily as he reached the summit and saw the old monk responsible for exchanging the Treasure Cache Tokens.
The terrifying aura emanating from the old monk made Tuoba Long’s breathing falter.
Truly, one of the three major divine factions, Hei Xumi, was indeed filled with countless powerful experts!
This old monk was likely a Nirvana!
Tuoba Long successfully exchanged a vast amount of resources, making Cloud Peak Village and Earth Village the biggest winners of this Divine Gambling Battle of a Thousand Villages.
After exchanging the resources, Tuoba Long was also teleported away.
The prodigies on the seventh island, including Xi Xi and Yun Huang, had long been escorted out of the Spirit Mountain Grotto by an invisible force.
The trial of the Sea of Suffering and the Prison Lotus had finally come to a complete end.
However, the outcome...
It was marked by a storm of blood and a sea of red that engulfed the Spirit Mountain Grotto.
The Spirit Mountain Grotto soon fell silent.
A gentle breeze blew, carrying the thick scent of blood that permeated the air.
The old monk's eyes were murky yet profound.
"The eighth God Tide... it's different... different from the previous God Tides!"
"Eight God Tides, does the ninth really not appear?"
His soft murmur seemed to be carried away by the wind, growing fainter and fainter.
The old man gradually transformed into an ancient stone statue, seated atop the mountain peak, with green moss growing on it, exuding an aura of ages past.
