Chapter 554: Bountiful Dao Fruit Harvest, Netherworld Lady Meng’s Arrival, Deciphering the Transmission Platform, and Breaking Free from the Cage (Part 2)
The Heaven and Earth Chessboard retracted, returning to the Niwan acupoint on Li Che's forehead.
Maintaining the Heaven and Earth Chessboard for several days, shielding his senses, had also increased the maturity of the Chess Sage Dao Fruit.
Even for a Level 8 Dao Fruit, the capabilities had improved significantly.
However, Li Che's task of shielding his senses from detection in the Divine Treasure City, a city teeming with divine realm experts, was a technical challenge.
As the capital of the Divine Treasure Heaven, controlled by the Hei Xumi faction of the pantheon, the city naturally had Nirvana Kings overseeing it.
Thus, under the immense pressure from the Nirvana Kings, the Chess Sage Dao Fruit had gained a significant boost.
Inside the inn, Zhang Ya had already finished her cultivation and was sitting in the room, holding Little Su Da the white fox, gazing out the window in a daze.
She didn't dare leave the room, afraid that seeing Xi Xi would make her unable to control her longing.
During this time, Xi Xi had even come to the inn's entrance, wandering around. Zhang Ya, seeing this secretly, felt her heart constrict.
"Lord, have you finished your cultivation?"
Zhang Ya's eyes brightened when she saw Li Che finish his practice.
She knew that Li Che was working hard so that their family could reunite without fear of the pantheon's threats.
Therefore, she didn't often show her sadness in front of Li Che.
Li Che smiled, embracing his wife and gently rubbing her head.
He could instantly sense her unhappiness.
"Xiaoya, if you truly miss Xi Xi, go see her. It's fine, even if we are discovered... it won't be a big problem."
"Whatever comes, we'll face it together."
Li Che said.
Zhang Ya, however, shook her head.
"Lord, that would be too dangerous. We are Xi Xi's parents, the greatest concern in the heart of the Prison Lotus Daughter."
"If our identities are exposed, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths will be shaken. The three major pantheon factions and the Two Sacred Ancient Villages will likely mobilize their full strength to kill us."
"Even the Third Prince and the Qitian Temple deity, who have significant ties to the Prison Lotus Daughter, were hunted by the three major pantheon factions. If we are exposed, it would be normal for Nirvana Kings to hunt us, and Immortals might even intervene!"
Zhang Ya's expression was serious.
She knew her lord was powerful, but no matter how strong, he couldn't surpass an Immortal in a short time.
If an Immortal were to intervene, it would indeed be very dangerous.
Zhang Ya understood that what her lord needed was time.
A bit of patience for a long-term reunion with the family, Zhang Ya was very clear about this!
Li Che smiled. Zhang Ya was right; exposing their identities would indeed bring such risks.
The parents of the Prison Lotus Daughter...
A parentless Prison Lotus Daughter, who, in this God Tide, had parents surviving to this day, must have a burning emotional connection.
To make the Prison Lotus Daughter turn dark would be easy; just killing her parents would successfully push her into darkness, accepting the curse!
Li Che thought for a moment and came up with a solution.
He would help Zhang Ya change her identity.
His fingers clenched, and a piece of Divine Wood came into his hand. A vast divine energy surged from the wood, and a carving knife slipped into his grasp, lightly slicing through it, causing wood shavings to fly.
A mask as thin as a cicada's wing, shimmering with boundless starlight, appeared in Li Che's hand. Just a glance at it seemed to make one forget their memories.
"Wear this mask. It is inscribed with a Mechanical Divine Seal, which can shield your aura and senses. Unless an Immortal's Divine Will descends to investigate, no one will see through the disguise."
Li Che explained.
This mask, crafted and refined by Li Che, was now a Four Emperors Upper-Class Divine Armament.
Moreover, Li Che had fused an Ancient Heaven and Earth Rune into it, endowing it with extraordinary divine properties.
"You can wear the mask to see Xi Xi, with Little Su Da accompanying you."
Zhang Ya still hesitated, "Will this really not be discovered?"
"If we are discovered, there's nothing we can do. It would mean an Immortal's Divine Will has descended, and the disguise would be meaningless."
"So, go with peace of mind."
Li Che said with a smile.
Zhang Ya was genuinely happy. She put on the mask, and her entire aura immediately retracted, distorted by the powerful mechanical divine seal and ancient rune on the mask.
She spun around once, then hugged Little Su Da and prepared to find Xi Xi in high spirits.
"Husband, what identity should I use to meet Xi Xi?"
Zhang Ya asked curiously as she walked to the door.
"Use... the name Lady Meng of the Netherworld."
Li Che thought for a moment and said.
Lady Meng?
Zhang Ya tilted her head, her eyes brightening slightly. She seemed to understand.
The specific name didn't matter; what mattered was the prefix "Netherworld"...
With the prefix "Netherworld", Xi Xi might be able to guess her identity.
Zhang Ya left the inn with Su Da in her arms. At the door, she quickly encountered Xi Xi, who was lingering there.
Xi Xi was accompanied by her brother and sister, Tuoba Li and Tuoba Xiu.
Zhang Ya's appearance immediately caught their attention.
Xi Xi was instantly drawn to Zhang Ya. Her eyes flickered, and her heart stirred.
The figure holding the white fox gave her a strong sense of familiarity. Xi Xi's heart trembled, as if making a guess.
"Is this... Mother?"
Xi Xi couldn't help but think, a feeling of blood connection!
When she heard the name Lady Meng of the Netherworld, Xi Xi immediately understood.
It had to be Mother!
Li Che watched Zhang Ya and Xi Xi interact from a distance, a smile spreading across his face.
The village chief, Yun He, appeared. Upon learning that Li Che had emerged from his seclusion, he rushed over immediately.
"Mr. Mo Che, the Divine Gambling Battle among a thousand villages has concluded, and we should return to Cloud Peak Village."
"This return will undoubtedly be a triumph."
Yun He was very excited.
Cloud Peak Village had been the biggest winner in this Divine Gambling Battle, acquiring a large amount of resources sufficient to elevate the village to the level of one of the Four Ancient Villages.
Additionally, the abilities displayed by Yun Hu and Yun Lei were evident to all.
"Mr. Mo Che, I know you won't be limited to Cloud Peak Village, so... this time I've come to bid you farewell."
"I hope Yun Hu and Yun Lei can follow you in their cultivation."
Yun He said earnestly.
Li Che, however, shook his head: "Who said I'm leaving Cloud Peak Village?"
Ah?
Yun He was stunned for a moment.
Then, his face lit up with joy.
Yun Hu and Yun Lei, who had been depressed, also brightened their eyes.
"Teacher! Are you coming back to the village with us?!"
Even the mature and calm Yun Hu couldn't help but get excited.
Li Che rubbed her head and nodded slightly.
In the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Li Che needed a base, and Cloud Peak Village was a good choice.
As the first village he encountered after ascending to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Li Che had a good impression of it.
Moreover, he needed to participate in the Divine Engineer Immortal Hand Assembly hosted by the Immortal Laojun. He couldn't just sign up directly like a rootless water lily; he would participate under the name of a Divine Engineer from Cloud Peak Village.
Additionally, Li Che was concerned that powerful beings might covet Cloud Peak Village due to his identity, posing a danger to the village.
Therefore, he decided to strengthen Cloud Peak Village, turning it into a Divine Engineer Ancient Village to serve as a base, ready to face the various threats in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
In the distance, Tuoba Ye stood with his hands behind his back and approached.
As a Dao Severing god, Tuoba Ye's presence was extremely intimidating.
Yun He felt a sense of oppression in front of such a being, his face pale and his attitude much more respectful.
"Senior Tuoba Ye, if you don't mind, why don't you join our Cloud Peak Village team and return with us?" Li Che said, looking at Tuoba Ye.
This was something Tuoba Ye and Li Che had already discussed.
The Earth Village had already faced a powerful attack from the three major divine factions. It was likely... in danger.
Thus, Tuoba Ye couldn't take Xi Xi, Tuoba Li, and Tuoba Xiu back to the Earth Village.
After discussing with Li Che, he decided to head to Cloud Peak Village together.
Of course...
Not together.
Tuoba Ye planned to entrust Xi Xi, Tuoba Li, Tuoba Xiu, and the Dao Union god Tuoba Hu to Li Che, to head to Cloud Peak Village.
As for himself...
He had to return to the village.
Yun He instantly understood, his expression complex.
Prison Lotus Daughter...
Mr. Mo Che, you plan to bring the Prison Lotus Daughter to Cloud Peak Village?
A symbol of calamity, the executioner of the Heaven and Earth Will in the mortal world, a cursed existence destined to slay Immortal gods!
Can Cloud Peak Village accommodate such a formidable presence?
But Yun He gritted his teeth and agreed!
As the village chief of Cloud Peak Village, he had the authority to make decisions for the villagers. The hope and opportunities Li Che brought to Cloud Peak Village justified taking some risks.
Besides, Mr. Mo Che was in Cloud Peak Village...
For some reason, Yun He had a deep-seated trust in Li Che.
Even if they faced calamity, Cloud Peak Village... with Mr. Mo Che's protection, should be safe.
Tuoba Ye looked at Yun He, a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
Very decisive, without any hesitation. Such a person as village chief was a stroke of luck for Cloud Peak Village.
Once the decision was made, there would be no hesitation.
Any hesitation would reduce Li Che's perception and be detrimental to Cloud Peak Village.
With this event, Cloud Peak Village was essentially tied to Mr. Mo Che.
If the three major divine factions decided to settle the score, Cloud Peak Village would not be able to escape.
It would be better to place everything on Mo Cheng Fengdu’s shoulders.
Moreover, if Yulian's Daughter went to Cloud Peak Village, it would actually be safer for the village in the short term...
Because the goal of the three major divine factions was to corrupt Yulian's Daughter.
The prerequisite for corruption was the cultivation of emotions. Only by fostering feelings and then breaking them would Yulian's Daughter experience emotional turmoil, leading to her corruption, just like what’s happening in Earth Village now...
Therefore, Yun He’s decisiveness was very appropriate.
"Don’t worry, Village Chief Yun He. You won’t regret today’s decision", Li Che said with a smile, making a promise.
In the distance, Zhang Ya and Xi Xi were chatting happily. Although they weren’t as close as mother and daughter, Xi Xi had learned about Zhang Ya’s disguise as Lady Meng, which made her feel a sense of reliance.
Xi Xi enjoyed this state very much.
She also knew that if Li Che and Zhang Ya’s identities were exposed, the three major divine factions would learn of Yulian's Daughter’s parents, potentially even alarming the Immortal God to take action!
Tuoba Ye informed everyone about the group’s journey to Cloud Peak Village. Despite the emotional turmoil, everyone understood the reason and did not refuse.
"Once you arrive at Cloud Peak Village with Mr. Mo Cheng Fengdu, listen to his instructions... and do not act on your own", Tuoba Ye repeatedly warned.
His aged face showed reluctance at the parting.
"Xi Xi, Yulian's Daughter’s identity is not a burden to you. Be yourself... perhaps this is also the old village chief’s wish."
"Don’t fall for their tricks. They want you to feel guilty, to accept the Prison Lotus Curse... but it’s the world that’s wrong, not you."
"You’re still just a child, how could you be at fault?"
Tuoba Ye gently rubbed Xi Xi’s head, his eyes filled with reluctance.
Xi Xi’s eyes welled up with tears, and she nodded reluctantly.
Tuoba Ye turned and left, taking Tuoba Long, who represented Earth Village in the Spirit Mountain Grotto, with him. The two stepped onto the Divine Treasure City’s transmission array, leaving Divine Treasure Heaven and heading back to the Northern Dipper Heaven, on their way to Earth Village.
Xi Xi was very reluctant, while Tuoba Li and Tuoba Xiu’s faces were filled with determination.
Their eyes were brimming with sorrow, knowing what had happened in Earth Village.
The blood feud could only be etched in their hearts, silently growing stronger, and ultimately avenging Earth Village!
Tuoba Ye and Tuoba Long were gone, disappearing from the transmission platform.
Li Che stood with his hands behind his back, his black robe fluttering in the wind.
"Let’s head back."
Li Che spoke.
Upon hearing this, Yun He immediately began to tidy up and organize the group.
This time, Cloud Peak Village had reaped a great harvest, but it also brought significant danger.
However, for Cloud Peak Village, this might also be a great opportunity. The village might have a chance to transcend its current status and become a middle or even upper-tier ancient village among the Three Pures!
One of the top ancient villages in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!
Buzzing sounds filled the air as the transmission platform glowed, countless beams of light bursting forth.
Then, the platform warped, beginning to traverse the void, transporting them from Divine Treasure Heaven back to Mystic Peak Heaven.
Li Che sat cross-legged on the transmission platform, his eyes opening and closing, his powerful divine spirit thought sweeping like a storm, comprehending the various divine patterns that emerged from the platform.
Li Che naturally wouldn’t abandon Earth Village.
He hadn’t gone with Tuoba Ye and the others because he had his own plan.
In his chest, the Dao Guo pulsed.
Behind Li Che, a golden wheel began to spin, the overlapping rotations producing a metallic grinding sound.
This was the Dao Guo, the Time-Space Golden Wheel, continuously resonating!
Li Che had been studying the transmission platform for a long time. From the first time he boarded it, he had instructed his sovereign avatar to mobilize the Divine Engineer Dao Guo to analyze every divine sculpture on the platform.
Additionally, the Time-Space Golden Wheel Dao Guo had been analyzing the spatial Dao power of the transmission platform.
Now, he finally had a breakthrough, or rather, a decryption!
The transmission platform was a core technology controlled by the three major divine factions!
It was the capital that allowed the three major divine factions to rule the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!
This platform contained divine sculpture techniques at the level of the Divine Sculpture Great Immortal, and even the power of Heaven and Earth Ancient Runes...
Decrypting it was extremely challenging for Li Che.
However, the rewards after decryption were immense!
[Dao Guo: Divine Engineer (Level 8, 20%)]
Studying the divine sculptures had significantly improved the Divine Engineer Dao Guo, which had reached Level 8.
However, what Li Che valued was not the maturation of the Divine Engineer Dao Guo, which was just a side benefit.
Li Che’s goal was the transformation of the Time-Space Golden Wheel Dao Guo!
The Time-Space Golden Wheel Dao Guo, already at Level 7, finally resonated and transformed after Li Che decrypted the secrets of the transmission platform.
[Dao Guo: Time-Space Golden Wheel (Level 8, 0%)]
Sitting cross-legged on the transmission array, Li Che, who was crossing the realm barrier, suddenly opened his eyes.
His gaze was brilliant.
The Time-Space Golden Wheel behind him spun with a resounding sound.
The Dao Guo had transformed, decrypting the array, breaking the cage!
This meant that he could cross the realm barrier through a privately set transmission array, shielding himself from the Immortal Will’s detection within the realm barrier.
This meant that in the vast Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Li Che could...
Move freely!
Traverse at will!
