Chapter 565: Dao Fruit Continuously Evolving with the Power of Life and Death, the Holy Doutian Palace Finally Senses the Qitian Aura [Requesting Monthly Votes]

Boom!

The five fingers spread wide, like five divine spears, piercing sharply into the headless Nirvana corpse lying on the ground.

The "Hell" Dao Fruit in Li Che’s chest immediately reacted wildly, the thunderous sound echoing in his ears like a bolt of lightning.

The path of life and death in the Netherworld that the Nirvana powerhouse had traversed suddenly appeared before Li Che’s eyes.

The surroundings seemed to change, faintly connecting with the unique realm of the Netherworld.

Li Che was currently in the City of Ghosts, so the connection to the Netherworld wasn’t as strong as it would be in the human world or the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, where it would be a direct reflection of the Netherworld.

However, Li Che still saw the path of life and death in the Netherworld, even if only a short segment, which stimulated the "Hell" Dao Fruit like a potent elixir, causing it to tremble continuously.

Boom!

The entire segment of the path of life and death was swallowed by the "Hell" Dao Fruit.

"It really works. It seems that this path of life and death in the Netherworld indeed has a significant connection to the Netherworld."

Li Che’s eyes gleamed. This was originally just an experiment, but he hadn’t expected to gain such a significant reward.

However, Li Che sensed that the "Hell" Dao Fruit mainly absorbed the life and death aura contained within the path of life and death.

[Dao Fruit: Hell (Lv2, 0%)]

[Dao Fruit: Hell (Lv2, 50%)]

...

[Dao Fruit: Hell (Lv3, 50%)]

[Dao Fruit: Hell (Lv4, 0%)]

...

Black light flickered and intertwined, continuously displaying prompts. The maturity of the newly acquired Dao Fruit was rapidly increasing!

Li Che wasn’t surprised. After all, the path of life and death in the Netherworld came from a Nirvana Divine Being. Nirvana Divine Beings, known as kings, stand at the pinnacle of power even in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

In the ancient villages of the Jiutian Shidi, only those of the Three Pure Ones level could have a Nirvana Divine Being as a guardian.

Even the Four Emperors, who are upper-tier, do not have a Nirvana Divine Being as a guardian, which clearly illustrates the power of a Nirvana.

Therefore, the path of life and death from such a deity, when absorbed by the "Hell" Dao Fruit, naturally had a significant effect.

Boom!

His heart felt like a massive bell being struck, the intense explosion resounding in his ears.

Finally, the maturity of the Dao Fruit stabilized.

[Dao Fruit: Hell (Lv5, 0%)]

From Lv1 to Lv5, a transformation that could be described as a quadruple leap!

However, Li Che found this quite normal.

The reward from defeating a Nirvana powerhouse, primarily the path of life and death, matched his "Hell" Dao Fruit exactly, as he had guessed. Such results were within his expectations.

[Dao Fruit Lv3: Evolved, gained the nascent form of the "Hell·Prison Armor" skill]

[Dao Fruit Lv4: Evolved again, the "Prison Armor" skill evolved, gained the "Life and Death Yellow Spring" skill, and the "Prison Waterfall Burial" skill at the first level]

[Dao Fruit Lv5: Evolved a third time, the "Prison Waterfall Burial" skill at the first level evolved to the second level, "Prison Waterfall Birth"]

Buzz, buzz, buzz—

Black mist rolled and intertwined, continuously forming prompt texts.

Li Che’s eyes opened and closed, his emotions slightly fluctuating. Seeing the evolved Dao Fruit and the new skills, his mood didn’t change much.

Perhaps it was because he had experienced many changes in his Dao Fruits, so he had become quite calm.

However, each Dao Fruit was unique, and its evolution effects gave Li Che a strong sense of impact.

"This Hell Dao Fruit... the skill is 'Life and Death Yellow Spring.' Could it be that this Dao Fruit’s Dao Reincarnation is the Primordial Water Tribulation?"

Li Che couldn’t help but think about this, his expression slightly changing.

Now, Li Che only needed the Primordial Earth Tribulation to complete the Primordial Nine Tribulations.

However, the earth tribulation was a mystery.

The acquisition of Dao Fruits was random, like opening a blind box. Even Li Che had no way of knowing what kind of Dao Fruit he would obtain.

He took a deep breath.

Standing in the City of Ghosts, with the adorable cow mask, his jet-black, sturdy hair was like sharp divine swords, slicing through the air with each movement.

This made Cang Che, standing opposite Li Che, tremble with fear.

Behind Li Che, the terrifying mechanical beast, fully activated with four ancient runes fused into its body, emitted a terrifying aura of power.

Li Che tested the nascent form of the Hell Dao Fruit's "Prison Armor" skill and the "Prison Waterfall Burial" skill.

The "Prison Armor" skill could form a layer of armor on the surface of the body, like flowing lava, extremely hot and capable of withstanding damage.

However, for the current Li Che, it was more of a token benefit.

After all, Li Che’s body had been tempered into a Mortal Saint Body, extremely powerful and resilient, so he didn’t have a high demand for defensive armor.

As for the "Prison Waterfall Burial" skill at the first level...

This technique is a means of destruction, capable of shattering the ground and inverting the earth, allowing scorching magma to surge forth, carrying an immensely powerful force of destruction.

The second-tier divine ability, Prison Waterfall Birth...

is more profound. It grants a brief resurrection ability, allowing the bodies and flesh of the dead to be buried, then regenerating into complete corpses that can unleash their full strength from life. When the Prison Waterfall Kill is used, these fully regenerated corpses can be detonated, significantly enhancing the power of the Prison Waterfall Kill!

However, Li Che’s eyes brightened slightly, feeling that if this Prison Waterfall Birth technique were combined with soul summoning, it might yield unexpected results.

Overall, reaching level 5 in the Hell Dao Fruit is still quite beneficial to him.

Of course, the help is limited for his current state.

Boom!

The entire City of Ghosts was in turmoil.

It seemed that the connection with the Netherworld was becoming increasingly tight.

However, the Nirvana realm experts were truly too powerful, making soul summoning them extremely difficult. The stronger one's cultivation, the harder it is to soul summon them, due to the concerns of the Nine Netherworld Paths of Life and Death.

Li Che had slain a Nirvana from the Obscure Heavenly Court and did not linger long in the City of Ghosts.

Soul summoning a Nirvana cultivator would have been impossible for Li Che before he achieved Dao Reincarnation, when he was just a newly ascended Xian Immortal with a nascent Godfire.

However, now that Li Che has successfully achieved Dao Reincarnation, he can indeed soul summon.

Though it was difficult, he ultimately succeeded, possibly because the Hell Dao Fruit had absorbed the Nine Netherworld Paths of Life and Death.

Buzz!

A Nirvana was successfully soul summoned. Li Che then used the Prison Waterfall Birth divine ability to restore the Nirvana’s physical body to perfection.

A surging life force burst forth from the corpse formed by the Prison Waterfall Birth.

With a flick of his finger, the black chess piece created by soul summoning shot out, merging into the corpse and seemingly dissolving into the limbs and bones, taking control of the body.

Li Che could sense the terrifying energy contained within the corpse.

If this energy were to be unleashed, it would likely cause catastrophic destruction!

A Nirvana-level human bomb!

If fully detonated, even a Quasi-Heavenly King would likely suffer severe injuries if caught off guard.

The self-detonation of a Nirvana, even a low-rank one, is undoubtedly terrifying.

Swish, swish!

The City of Ghosts had not completely shattered and was slowly recovering. Once it was fully repaired, the Flower of Immortality Dao Fruit would gain an additional boost.

Li Che's mind stirred slightly.

[Dao Fruit: Dragon Elephant Vajra (Level 9, 10%)]

The maturity of the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit, which had undergone seven transformations, was displayed before him.

The maturity gained from slaying a Nirvana was not as much as Li Che had expected...

Or perhaps it was already quite a lot, but the maturity required for the seventh transformation was truly immense.

However, Li Che was still quite pleased.

Because slaying a low-rank Nirvana contributed to the transformation of the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit, meaning that slaying low-rank Nirvanas was still useful...

This meant that the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit had not yet reached the point where its owner despaired, unable to achieve the ninth transformation.

"Dao Fruit nine transformations... is it really that difficult?"

Li Che's eyes glinted.

For him, so far, he had not encountered the difficulty of Dao Fruit transformations. At least, there was still hope.

The enlightenment feedback from the maturity gained by the seventh transformation of the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit was not used by Li Che. He planned to use it during his Dao Reincarnation.

Now, with the Mind Long River as a lubricant, he had completed the Dao Reincarnation of two major paths.

There were still five more paths to unify.

The road ahead was long and arduous.

Li Che ended his thoughts, glanced at the respectfully standing Cang Che, and after some consideration, assigned him some tasks. Then, he left the City of Ghosts.

He planned to attend Xi Xi’s birthday.

Xi Xi’s tenth birthday, and as a father, he could not be absent.

Li Che had already missed Xi Xi’s ninth birthday, and this time, being in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, he could not afford to miss it again.

Each absence was a regret!

...

...

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

The void was continuously trembling.

A terrifying Nirvana will rolled over, and the Quasi-Heavenly King of the Obscure Heavenly Court stood in the air, his body radiating a brilliant light. His eyes scanned the area, his face as dark as water.

Two other Nirvanas also gathered together.

Outside Yunxiao Village, the void seemed to turn into a swamp, solidifying and making movement extremely difficult.

At the entrance of Yunxiao Village.

Tuoba Lian, leaning on a cane, hunched over, faced this oppressive force, looking as if he might be crushed at any moment.

However, even so, Tuoba Lian did not retreat a single step, standing firm and blocking the terrifying Aura of Power brought by the three Nirvana experts!

Suddenly.

Amidst the tense atmosphere.

Black smoke suddenly surged in the void.

Spatial Path fluctuations rippled, and a figure staggered backward from the void, coughing up blood. The blood was filled with the power of rules and order.

The Nirvana King's face was extremely grim, with a savage wound on his chest, the cracks around it spreading out across his body.

He panted heavily, his vital energy fluctuating violently.

However, as soon as this Nirvana King appeared, the tense atmosphere was immediately broken.

Seeing this Nirvana King return, the other two and the quasi-Heavenly King all breathed a sigh of relief.

He's not dead!

As long as he's not dead, it means that if that mysterious existence intervenes, they all have a chance to survive.

"King Xuanling, who attacked you?!"

The quasi-Heavenly King asked in a deep voice, and at the same time, a powerful Nirvana will swept out, probing the Nirvana King's body.

He wanted to check if this Nirvana King was an impostor, but upon confirming that the flesh and blood of this Nirvana powerhouse were real, albeit with a slightly weakened Nirvana will, his mind relaxed even more.

But he couldn't help but ask again:

"Is it the Ksitigarbha that the Young Emperor mentioned?"

King Xuanling, who was at the initial stage of Nirvana and had been killed by Li Che, still had a lingering fear on his face.

"No, it was a masked powerhouse. I couldn't see his face clearly, but his combat strength is very formidable, at the Nirvana level... He pulled me into a small celestial cavern, trying to catch me off guard. Fortunately, I reacted in time and managed to fight my way out, even though I was injured."

King Xuanling wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his expression cold and ruthless.

Upon hearing this, the quasi-Heavenly King's brows furrowed.

A masked powerhouse...

He shook his head, unable to determine which force this Nirvana powerhouse belonged to.

The quasi-Heavenly King could only make everyone stay vigilant, with the three Nirvanas moving closer together, ready to pass on any information if anything happened.

At the entrance of Yunxiao Village.

Tuoba Lian narrowed his eyes, looking at the Nirvana powerhouses of the Obscure Heavenly Court who had relaxed their guard, and something occurred to him.

Suddenly, Tuoba Lian seemed to sense something.

He looked in a certain direction within the village.

There, an unknown figure in black attire appeared, his black hair fluttering, and a gentle smile on his face.

Mo Che?

Tuoba Lian's wrinkled face instantly broke into a smile.

What a coincidence?

The Nirvana powerhouse was saved, and then Mo Che returned...

It seems that what happened to that Nirvana powerhouse was indeed caused by Mo Che.

Li Che greeted Tuoba Lian and then walked straight back into the village, hands behind his back, striding confidently.

Yunhuang was practicing with the Divine Engineer Barrett in an open field when she sensed Li Che's return. She immediately became excited, shouldering the Barrett and striding out with her long, slender legs.

"Teacher!"

Yunhuang's eyes shone brightly.

Yunlei, who was a bit slow to react, quickly jumped up.

They were fast, but someone was even faster!

Xi Xi, almost like a streak of radiant light, dashed out from the village, riding the Jilian Wind-Fire Golden Wheel, and like a meteor, she crashed into Li Che's arms.

If Li Che's body weren't strong enough, he might have been thrown into the air like someone hit by a truck.

"It's Xi Xi's birthday today, right? I came back to celebrate with you."

Li Che held Xi Xi and smiled gently.

In Yunxiao Village, many children ran out barefoot, following their leader Xi Xi, cheering and celebrating.

The village instantly became a lively scene.

Xi Xi was incredibly happy, never expecting that her father would remember it was her birthday today.

Her father even came back specially to celebrate with her. How wonderful!

Besides Xi Xi, Zhang Ya was also surprised. She wore the Mengpo mask, holding the fox Little Su Da, leaning against the door frame.

Seeing the father and daughter welcomed by the village children, she couldn't help but smile gently, her eyes filled with tenderness.

...

...

After celebrating Xi Xi's birthday, Li Che intended to stay in the village for a while longer.

However, news came from Xuan Mountain Ancient City that they were about to set out for Tai Su Heaven to attend the Divine Craftsmanship Conference.

So, Li Che had to bid farewell to the villagers once again.

"Daddy! Take Xi Xi with you!"

When no one was around, Xi Xi immediately grabbed Li Che's hand, shaking it and pouting.

She wanted to see the Divine Craftsmanship Conference too!

Besides, she also wanted to see the Great Sage Qitian's condition, as she had been deeply impressed by the Great Sage Qitian in the mortal world.

"It's too dangerous outside", Zhang Ya said.

"Mommy, you have Daddy with us! Daddy will definitely protect me!"

Xi Xi continued to pout, turning to look at Li Che, her eyes sparkling like little stars.

Faced with such a display of cuteness from his daughter, which father could resist?

At least, Li Che couldn't. Of course, it was also because Li Che was confident he could protect Xi Xi.

In case of emergency, he could place Xi Xi inside the City of Ghosts.

If that didn't work, he could use the Thunder Chess Piece to teleport her away, and his sovereign avatar could protect her.

Additionally, Li Che could grant Xi Xi the right to control the Qitian armor, even though she hadn't cultivated the Great Way Long River.

However, Li Che had many Dao Vessels, and he could guide one to carry Xi Xi, allowing her to control the Qitian Nirvana armor!

It was another way to ensure her safety.

"Alright."

When Li Che agreed, Xi Xi jumped up, hugging Li Che's face and giving him a big kiss.

Xi Xi, who was almost a succubus in Yunxiao Village, was quite unrestrained in front of Li Che.

"If your little followers saw you like this, the image of Empress Xi Xi in their hearts would completely collapse!"

Li Che teased.

Xi Xi stuck out her tongue, shaking her head as if she didn't care.

This time, when Li Che left the village, he didn't disturb too many people.

He put a little Bull Demon mask on Xi Xi and left chess pieces on her body to completely shield her from the Prison Lotus Curse.

Zhang Ya entrusted the little fox, Su Da, to Xi Xi, instructing Su Da to protect her if necessary.

Zhang Ya herself stayed in Yunxiao Village to refine the Divine Armament Package that Li Che had given her. When refining Divine Armaments, she didn't need Su Da's help.

Xi Xi wore Su Da like a scarf around her neck and followed Li Che to the village entrance, where they met Toba Lian.

"Grandpa Lian, I'm going out to play with Mr. Mo Che!"

Xi Xi, wearing Su Da as a scarf, greeted Toba Lian.

Toba Lian responded with a warm smile.

"Be careful."

"No problem!"

The conversation between the old and the young was filled with joy.

Li Che held Xi Xi's hand and nodded to Toba Lian.

Then, he took a step and teleported!

This time, because it was one of their own, the teleportation didn't even catch the attention of the near-Heavenly King.

Li Che used the direction of the Black Feather King as a breakthrough point and swiftly left the village.

After several consecutive teleports, they soon arrived at the entrance to Xuan Mountain.

With his cultivation reaching the Dao Integration realm, Li Che's Mystic Immortal Will had become even stronger, and the teleports consumed very little energy.

Inside the ancient city of Xuan Mountain.

Li Che used the Thunder Chess Piece left on his Dominant Avatar to teleport and switch positions.

"Wow! This is Xuan Mountain? Father... Mr. Mo Che even got his own palace?"

Xi Xi was amazed, holding onto Su Da's two tails as she curiously examined the palace.

"Hmm? Where did this little one come from? Master Mo Che is now a genius Divine Engineer in the Young Emperor's Divine Engineer Corps, with great hopes placed on him by the Young Emperor. Even Great Immortal Zhao Yuan plans to take Master Mo Che as a disciple after this Divine Craftsmanship Conference!"

Just as Xi Xi was amazed, Cang Yuan walked out of the hall.

When he saw Xi Xi wearing the cute little Bull Demon mask, his eyes showed surprise.

However, knowing Li Che's special status, he wasn't too surprised and simply assumed she was a child from Li Che's village, brought along to see the world.

Of course, Cang Yuan didn't even consider the possibility that Xi Xi was Yulian's daughter.

Yulian's daughter... How could she possibly appear under the Young Emperor's nose at such a critical moment?

He couldn't even imagine it.

Even Young Emperor Ji Shaohao couldn't have imagined it.

When Li Che brought Xi Xi and Cang Yuan to see Ji Shaohao, the Young Emperor was slightly taken aback upon seeing Xi Xi.

"A young descendant from the village, very talented in divine sculpture. I specially asked Cang Yuan to bring her here. Perhaps this Divine Craftsmanship Conference will greatly inspire and cultivate her."

"The cultivation of the village's young is of utmost importance."

Ji Shaohao raised an eyebrow and his gaze fell on Xi Xi, but he sensed nothing unusual.

Great Immortal Zhao Yuan laughed heartily.

"Very well said!"

"A village's rise depends not only on those who push the limits but also on the children who can shoulder the burden."

"A village's advancement always requires the efforts of generation after generation!"

Great Immortal Zhao Yuan's gaze fell on Xi Xi, and he smiled warmly.

"Little girl, can you show Grandpa a sculpture?"

Xi Xi tilted her head, her eyes shining brightly under the Bull Demon mask.

"Sure!"

Xi Xi wasn't afraid at all. She took out her carving knife, grabbed a piece of wood, and started sculpting on the spot.

To be honest, Xi Xi's skills were quite impressive. Although Li Che didn't teach her much, she had picked up a lot through observation and the bond with the Divine Engineer Dao Fruit. Her divine sculpture skills were truly remarkable.

She was roughly at the level of a half-Saint in divine sculpture!

"Ha-ha-ha! As expected of a girl favored by Mo Che, she's indeed very good! To have the skills of a half-Saint at this age, she has a bright future as a Divine Engineer!"

Great Immortal Zhao Yuan laughed heartily. If Canglan Village could produce two divine sculptors, reaching the level of the Three Pure Ancients Village would be no problem.

Ji Shaohao also gave Xi Xi a second look. A half-Saint in divine sculpture at her age was indeed impressive.

He was already thinking about how to recruit Mo Che and Xi Xi later.

"Alright, we've been staying in Xuan Mountain for quite some time. It's time to head to Tai Su Heaven."

"We can also meet the divine sculptors from the Mystic Cavern and Hei Xumi in advance and gauge their skills."

Ji Shaohao said.

This Divine Craftsmanship Conference was essentially a stage for the divine sculptors of the three major divine factions.

Li Che had no objections.

Ji Shaohao took out his ancient Divine Armament bell, threw it into the air, and it hovered there.

"Clang—!"

A bell sound rang out, and waves of energy spread out.

The many divine sculptors still cultivating in the ancient village opened their eyes, sensed the situation, and quickly gathered.

At the center of the palace complex, the teleportation platform of Xuan Mountain.

Towering statues of divine officials, each a hundred feet tall, stood in various poses amidst the swirling white mist, creating a dreamlike scene.

Li Che held Xi Xi's hand and followed Ji Shaohao and Great Immortal Zhao Yuan to the teleportation platform.

Ten of the divine engravers Ji Shaohao had recruited, along with over a dozen others who hadn't been chosen by him but still passed the selection and earned their spots, stood on the teleportation platform.

Hum—

A Nirvana king instantly appeared, his eyes opening and tearing through the void amidst the white mist, the Nirvana Path of Life and Death descending.

A massive surge of divine energy poured into the teleportation platform.

The teleportation array was instantly activated!

Hum, hum, hum—

Ji Shaohao took a deep breath, his face showing a hint of excitement even despite his usual composure.

The Qitian Divine Pill!

He yearned for this divine pill too much!

With the Qitian Divine Pill, he could likely transcend to the Immortality realm before the eighth God Tide ended!

It wasn't just him; Fu Shaohui and Shi Shaokai were likely also after this divine pill.

In addition, the young emperors from the three ancient villages of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths would also vie for this divine pill.

Boom—

The teleportation platform activated, and the power of the spatial path erupted.

The force of spatial displacement surged.

Before teleporting, Li Che left a Thunder Chess Piece on the platform, a habit that almost felt like a Chess Sage's instinct.

The teleportation didn't last long.

Since the journey from Xuanxiao Heaven to Tai Su Heaven required crossing only a few domain barriers.

Boom—!!!

The spatial passage was a kaleidoscope of colors, with radiant light flashing by like a white horse passing through a gap.

Soon, they reached the domain barrier between Xuanxiao Heaven and Tai Su Heaven!

It was like a city gate floating in the void, with countless spatial disturbances constantly battering the ancient gate.

On the gate, a vast pair of eyes seemed to open, with countless stars and galaxies swirling within them.

Li Che's mind stirred, and the heaven and earth chessboard expanded, completely concealing Xi Xi's aura.

The will of an Immortal god swept through!

Between every domain barrier, an Immortal god sat in vigil.

"Is this... Laojun Immortality?"

Li Che asked.

Ji Shaohao turned to look and laughed. "Of course not. Laojun Immortality... is the supreme Immortal of our Obscure Heavenly Court. This one is the Zhongtian Ziwēi Immortality of the Obscure Heavenly Court, an Earth Immortal."

Li Che immediately bowed in respect, though he was deeply impressed by the overall strength of the Obscure Heavenly Court.

The number of Earth Immortals and Heaven Immortals was indeed considerable.

Whether it was the Obscure Heavenly Court, Mystic Cavern, or Hei Xumi, their Immortal-level combat power truly overshadowed the Lotus of Imprisonment.

No wonder the three major divine factions almost completely controlled the Lotus of Imprisonment. Breaking through this situation was indeed very difficult.

The Immortal gaze from the city gate was extremely sharp and terrifying.

Neither the young emperor Ji Shaohao nor the Great Immortal Zhao Yuan dared to be negligent, facing the Immortal with respect and bowing.

Hum—

When they passed through the city gate without hindrance, the void distorted.

The group immediately ended their spatial travel and appeared on a teleportation platform at the foot of Xuan Mountain in Tai Su Heaven.

"Wow—!!!"

As soon as the intense dizziness from the spatial travel subsided, Xi Xi couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

On the teleportation platform, figures appeared one after another, as spatial paths converged and people from various places landed.

The platform was so vast that even Li Che felt a chill run down his spine.

There were eighty-one colossal statues standing around the platform, which had a diameter of a hundred miles.

But what made Xi Xi exclaim was not the platform itself.

The platform was situated at the peak of Xuan Mountain.

When Xi Xi opened her eyes, she saw the immense, three-legged cauldron-like city opposite Xuan Mountain!

"This city is called Doutian Palace. It is where Laojun Immortality hosts the Divine Craftsmanship Conference, and it is one of the top three holy cities in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."

Even the Great Immortal Zhao Yuan, a divine engraver, couldn't hide his awe when he faced the massive Doutian Palace.

At that moment,

Li Che's eyes were fixed on the Doutian Palace, and his Pure Mind Dao Fruit reacted intensely.

In the inner landscape of his mind, the Qiqiao Linglong Heart was beating violently.

Thump, thump, thump—

Invisible ripples spread, making Li Che's emotions restless.

There was something in the Doutian Palace that was attracting his Pure Mind Dao Fruit!

Moreover...

A faint light shone from Li Che's brow.

Then, the heaven and earth chessboard expanded.

Rattle, rattle—

It sounded like chains clashing in his ears.

At the base of a massive Heavenly Pillar, countless chains were entwining and binding a figure.

Countless thunderbolts and Godfire raged, burning and striking the figure.

The Thunder Chess Piece jumped, reflecting the scene on the heaven and earth chessboard.

Li Che's eyes narrowed, and he slowly exhaled a breath as heavy as incense.

He finally sensed...

The aura of Qitian!
