Chapter 553: Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit Completes Seven Transformations, Martial Arts Long River Sees Ten Thousand Warriors Forge Their Dao Bodies (Part 2)
...
Li Che was completely unaware of the old monk's state and his lament.
Li Che was teleported out of the Spirit Mountain Grotto and returned to the teleportation platform in the Divine Treasure City.
Around him, a crowd of cultivators was densely gathered, their faces filled with unparalleled solemnity and shock.
Many had a look of terror in their eyes.
These were mostly the Divine Realm prodigies who had escaped from the Spirit Mountain Grotto, representing their ancient villages in the Divine Gambling Battle.
Li Che had displayed a massacre within the grotto, but not a complete one.
He had killed those at the Dao Fusion Realm, while the Godfire Realm gods had the chance to escape.
After Li Che emerged,
Rays of Radiant Light descended.
Xi Xi, Yun Huang, Yun Lei, Tuoba Xiu, Tuoba Li, and other prodigies from Earth Village were also successively escorted out.
Everyone knew that the outcome of the Divine Gambling Battle among the thousand villages was now clear.
Many hearts were trembling...
"How much resources did these two villages gain?!"
They couldn't guess...
They didn't even dare to guess!
However, everyone knew what had happened within the Spirit Mountain Grotto!
The massacre by Yulian's Daughter in the prodigy arena and the external aid from Cloud Peak Village, which led to the slaughter of Dao Fusion Realm gods!
Thus, although many were greedy, they dared not have any thoughts of rebellion.
Buzzing sounds filled the air as the void trembled, and the teleportation platform fluctuated.
Tuoba Long returned, his face unable to hide his overwhelming joy.
Whoosh!
As Tuoba Long exited the teleportation platform, a sound broke through the air. It was Tuoba Ye, the Path-Cutting strongman leading the Earth Village team.
Boom!
A powerful aura rumbled and shook, with the rules of the Great Dao dancing wildly!
Path-Cutting patterns interwove like a dream, like smoke swirling around.
The Path-Cutting gods from the ten ancient villages approached, almost completely blocking the area around the teleportation platform!
Tuoba Ye, with his white hair and a primitive fur coat, a simple iron axe at his waist, stared at these Path-Cutting gods with a cold, fierce gaze, like a leopard.
"What? Are you all unsatisfied... planning to seize the resources our Earth Village has gained?"
Tuoba Ye placed his hand on the handle of his iron axe and sneered.
The auras of the Path-Cutting gods intertwined, forming a storm-like wave, filled with pressure and overwhelming force.
It made the prodigies who had just emerged from the Spirit Mountain Grotto feel suffocated!
Li Che, however, remained unperturbed, showing no concern.
After all, this was the Divine Gambling Battle hosted by Hei Xumi. How could these ancient village Path-Cutters be so reckless?
They just wanted an explanation...
Li Che smiled and moved his mind slightly.
The teleportation platform then experienced another ripple, with spatial fluctuations.
Then, the Dao Fusion Realm gods from the ten ancient villages flew out.
This made the Path-Cutting leaders of the ten ancient villages, who were about to cause trouble, momentarily stunned, their eyes filled with confusion.
As for the Godfire cultivators who had escaped from the Spirit Mountain Grotto, they were utterly bewildered.
What?
They all survived?!
These Dao Fusion Realm gods didn't die?
Yet, many had witnessed these Dao Fusion Realm gods being brutally killed by Li Che!
However, these living Dao Fusion Realm gods completely blocked the anger of the ten ancient villages' Path-Cutting gods, making it impossible for them to cause trouble.
As for...
Using the issue between the prodigies to cause trouble.
That was Yulian's Daughter's massacre... how could they cause trouble?
They were trying to force Yulian's Daughter into the Prison Lotus Curse, to display her killing prowess.
When Yulian's Daughter truly engaged in slaughter, they had no words to say.
They could only swallow this silent loss.
The Path-Cutting gods coldly snorted and swept their sleeves, leading their teams to turn and leave.
Li Che watched calmly as the various Dao Fusion Realm soul summoners from the ten ancient villages integrated, his heart unperturbed.
They would serve as pawns planted within the ten ancient villages.
Tuoba Ye's tense body also relaxed slightly.
After all, the number of Path-Cutting experts in the Ten Ancient Villages was overwhelming. Facing them alone would be too much pressure for him.
Without provocation from these First-Cutting Gods, he was naturally pleased.
"Grandpa Ye!"
Xi Xi's expression turned grave and solemn.
She rushed to Tuoba Ye's side and relayed the information she had learned during the battle with the prodigy.
Tuoba Ye's face immediately turned sorrowful.
"Perhaps... this is fate."
"The Earth Village will ultimately be destroyed in this Eighth God Tide, all for Yulian's Daughter..."
Tuoba Ye's voice was desolate.
He patted Xi Xi's head, "Don't blame yourself, little girl. This has nothing to do with you; it's a choice we made for the Earth Village..."
"How can it not be related to me?!"
Xi Xi's face showed immense anxiety.
Tuoba Ye smiled, "Don't worry, little one. Besides... the Earth Village might not be destroyed."
"Our village chief is also a Nirvana powerhouse!"
However, despite his words, the sadness and pain in his eyes were unmistakable.
After all, the goal of the three major divine factions was to make Yulian's Daughter grieve to the point of corruption, to make her regret her lack of strength through loss, and to fully accept the power of the Prison Lotus Curse.
Xi Xi was very disheartened. She wasn't stupid and could guess what was happening.
"Try to become stronger... little girl."
"Everything the Earth Village does is to protect you."
Tuoba Ye patted Xi Xi's head with affection, "You must fight against fate, against destiny. Don't become a puppet for the divine factions..."
"They want to see you walk the same path, to use you as a tool, a means to clear the way for Immortality..."
Xi Xi nodded solemnly but couldn't help but think about it, planning to secretly seek out her father later to ask if there was any way to change things.
Li Che remained silent but had the Earth Village on his mind.
He has always believed in repaying kindness.
The Earth Village had taken in Xi Xi during her time of need, even knowing that she was Yulian's Daughter and would bring calamity to the village, yet they still made that choice.
Even if it was because of the Prison Lotus, Li Che would still choose to repay their kindness.
Perhaps, he would visit the Earth Village.
Even if the Earth Village were truly destroyed.
Li Che had other options...
Tuoba Ye looked at Li Che, his eyes flickering. He had already heard the report from Tuoba Long and was surprised.
Without Li Che and Yun Huang and Yun Lei's help, they might have fallen into a trap in this Divine Gambling Battle among the thousand villages.
Tuoba Li, Tuoba Xiu, and Tuoba Long might have all died.
Li Che didn't say much, and upon returning to the inn, he handed over the resources exchanged with the Treasure Cache Token to Yunxiao Village's chief, Yun He.
Yun He was stunned.
"Ah... Ah... Brother Mo Che, all of this... for Yunxiao Village?"
Li Che nodded, not giving Yun He much time to speak.
"I don't need these resources. Yunxiao Village can keep them..."
"I had some insights during this Divine Gambling Battle and need to seclude myself for cultivation. I won't keep you."
Hearing this, Yun He didn't dare to stay longer.
He hurriedly left the inn room, completely dazed and grinning foolishly.
Yunxiao Village had suffered for so long...
And now, they finally saw hope.
With so many resources, Yunxiao Village could attempt to elevate its ancient village status to the Four Emperors level!
Walking down the corridor, Yun He smiled, tears streaming down his face.
...
...
Inside the inn.
Zhang Ya was holding Little Su Da, waiting.
"Husband... did you see Xi Xi?"
Zhang Ya couldn't help but ask.
Li Che nodded. Although Zhang Ya missed Xi Xi, she suppressed her urge to see her.
After describing what had happened in the Ling Mountain Grotto, Li Che entered a state of seclusion.
With a thought, the heaven and earth chessboard expanded, enveloping the entire inn room.
Sitting cross-legged, Li Che's eyes opened and closed, his black hair fluttering like black lightning.
Before him, a dense golden mist flickered.
[Dao Fruit: Dragon Elephant Vajra (LV9, 0%)]
Dao Fruit, Seventh Transformation!
Unprecedented, the Seventh Transformation!
In the Ling Mountain Grotto, by killing one Path-Cutting expert and ten Fusion Dao Gods, Li Che's achievements had directly pushed the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit to the LV9 level!
In fact, Li Che had already killed more than one Path-Cutting expert.
The Seventh Transformation...
Li Che's eyes flickered, finding it easier than expected.
However, it took the deaths of two Path-Cutting Gods and over ten Fusion Dao experts to achieve this transformation.
And this included the increase in Dao Fruit maturity from his own breakthrough to the Martial Arts Immortal realm.
As for the subsequent eight transformations, it was uncertain whether simply slaying Nirvana Kings would suffice for the metamorphosis.
After achieving the eight transformations, Li Che would encounter the same obstacles that the Dao Fruit Owners once faced!
Thump, thump, thump—
Relaxing his mind, Li Che began to undergo the transformation of the Dao Fruit!
Boom—!!
His heart pounded fiercely, like the tolling of a great bell!
Li Che instantly assumed the posture of an Immortal.
His spine roared like a dragon, the Eight Mystic Gates Immortal Seed emerged, and eight streams of Immortal Qi blossomed from his body like flowers!
Ripples spread through the void, and Li Che pushed the Heaven and Earth Chessboard to its limits, shielding his state.
Then, with a shift of his mind, he began to accept the transformation of the Dao Fruit.
Hum—
His mind was instantly pulled into the space of the Dao Tree by a powerful force.
The familiar process held no novelty for Li Che.
The Seventh Transformation Dao Fruit was enormous, like a star hanging high above the towering Dao Tree.
When the Dao Fruit exploded, it seemed as if an entire galaxy erupted in Li Che's eyes.
Rushing, surging—
The Great Way Long River flowed.
Li Che found himself standing atop the Great Way Long River.
It was the Martial Arts Long River, where each drop of water seemed to reflect the shadow of a martial artist, drenched in sweat, diligently practicing their art.
Each drop of water was a crystallization of a martial artist's lifetime of understanding!
Suddenly, Li Che's eyes narrowed.
A powerful pressure suddenly burst forth from his body.
It was as if he had been pushed into the Great Way Long River, continuously sinking towards the riverbed.
Countless crystallizations of martial artists' wills surged towards Li Che, washing over his spirit.
Li Che felt his Mystic Immortal Will struggling to bear the overwhelming pressure of these martial artists' wills...
It felt like he would burst!
If this continued...
He would be crushed to death!
Li Che's heart raced with alarm. He grew anxious and wanted to use the power of the Pure Mind Dao Fruit to help alleviate the pressure.
But he could no longer sense the Pure Mind Dao Fruit...
His face began to contort as the countless martial artists' wills filled him, swelling his body like a balloon.
Li Che watched his fingers swell like inflated balloons, his skin stretched to the limit, becoming incredibly smooth and poreless...
He was about to burst!
He was about to be crushed to death!
At this moment, Li Che's mind calmed down.
The transformation of the Dao Fruit was dangerous...
Otherwise, how would the Dao Fruit Owners have died, passing down their Dao Fruit wills?
Now, it seemed that Li Che could not bear the power of the Dao Fruit and was about to burst.
Countless martial artists' wills seemed to scream, twisting his soul.
Li Che's mind calmed, and without anxiety, he began to quietly experience the changes brought by these martial artists' wills.
He saw a young boy, drenched in sweat, standing on the plum blossom stakes for decades, from youth to old age.
He saw a woman wielding twin blades, dancing like a mandarin duck, facing strong enemies without fear, cutting down foes with a fiery martial will.
He saw a young man chasing the dream of a martial artist, challenging the entire martial world, transforming into a demon.
He saw...
Too many, each drop of the Martial Arts Long River seemed to flow with a martial artist's brief yet brilliant life!
Li Che silently felt and observed, and before he knew it, his entire being shone like a blazing sun, burning with an intense, dazzling light.
Suddenly.
Li Che opened his eyes at the riverbed.
Instantly, his eyes shone brightly, as if thousands of martial artists' wills were intertwined within them.
His swollen body gradually returned to normal, and his flesh and blood were even tempered in an incredible way.
But this was not important.
Li Che's face was calm, his eyes like sparks spreading across the land.
[Dao Fruit Level 9, Seventh Transformation, Seeking the Dao Vessel, Condensing the Heaven and Earth Dao Body]
Rumble—
Golden smoke rolled before him, as if countless martial artists' wills were roaring and howling, their voices intertwining and resonating endlessly!
Then, Li Che felt his body begin to float, as if a powerful force was pushing him out of the Great Way Long River.
But as he emerged from the Great Way Long River, he looked back and saw the riverbed below.
In the spot where he had originally been sitting.
There was a figure lingering.
It seemed like...
A remnant of his transformation!
