If he didn’t…
The young emperor’s reputation in the Obscure Heavenly Court would crumble in an instant!
“Good!”
Ji Shaohao’s face lit up with joy, surprised by Li Che’s decisive agreement!
Excellent! Excellent!
This was the spirit of a promising Divine Sculptor Immortal Hand!
Those old foxes from the Xuanxiao Heaven should take a good look at this!
Ji Shaohao’s gaze towards Li Che grew even more intense.
“This is a seven-leaf Dao Essence Crystal. Consider it a token of my appreciation!”
Ji Shaohao, feeling elated, generously extended a hand and handed Li Che the Dao Essence Crystal.
Li Che’s face lit up with joy, and he accepted it without refusal.
Ji Shaohao’s expression softened. Accepting his gift meant Li Che had taken on the task and would do his utmost to secure a spot.
Satisfied, Ji Shaohao left. Among the ten immortal hands he had recruited in the Xuanxiao Heaven, Ji Shaohao favored only Canglan.
He wasn’t as optimistic about the other immortal hands.
Only an immortal hand who could earn the praise of a great immortal like Zhao Yuan had a chance to compete against the Divine Sculptor Immortal Hands from the Mystic Cavern and Black Xumi.
Ji Shaohao turned and left, returning to his own courtyard.
Li Che, in turn, immediately fed the seven-leaf Dao Essence Crystal that Ji Shaohao had given him to the meatball in Mo Cheng Fengdu, known as “Old Huang.”
Old Huang grew even larger, the great Dao energy within surging.
The terrifying sword qi, though restrained, still made Li Che feel a sense of unease.
The Divine Sculptor Immortal Hand Conference was about to be held in Doutian Palace City, a grand event.
Gathering in Doutian Palace City were not only the Divine Sculptor Masters who had come to participate in the conference but also wandering cultivators from various heavens and regions, as well as ancient village masters who had been sent to Doutian Palace City with all their resources to learn.
These people were there to watch and learn.
Wandering cultivators, all of whom were powerful, could not have achieved god realm status otherwise. How could they be wandering cultivators without such power?
Among these wandering cultivators, some even had the Dao Sealing realm!
They lived day by day, spending their resources as they came, never wanting to take anything home.
They poured all their resources into themselves, unbound by village restrictions.
Doutian City was vast enough that even with the dense influx of cultivators from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the city’s operations remained unaffected, and it even stimulated the city’s economic prosperity.
Many inns were fully booked, and many taverns were directly leased out, with the chefs’ spatulas sparking from overuse.
When Ji Shaohao, in his generosity, took Li Che, Xi Xi, Cangyuan, and the other favored Divine Sculptor Immortal Hands out to eat, he witnessed this bustling scene.
Li Che couldn’t help but be amazed.
The chefs in Doutian Palace City were indeed skilled, perhaps influenced by the alchemy masters of the city.
Cooking and alchemy, after all, shared many similarities.
Days passed in such leisurely moments.
Ji Shaohao often took Li Che, Xi Xi, and the others out to eat, and the young emperor’s enthusiasm for dining out broadened Li Che’s horizons.
It’s like a young emperor dining out!
Since cultivation was impossible in Doutian Palace City, after all, one needed Fire Warding Pills, which were extremely expensive, there was no need to waste resources just to cultivate here.
So, everyone focused on improving their Divine Sculptor skills.
Li Che, however, replicated a large number of Fire Warding Pills and gave quite a few to Xi Xi, allowing the little girl to ignore the threat of the Earth Vein Fire and proceed with her cultivation.
If one could overcome the fire toxicity, Doutian Palace City would be a holy land for cultivation!
After all, the Dao Essence Crystals used as sculpting materials and the divine crystals used for the paving stones created a divine storm that enveloped the entire city.
With a whoosh, the Heaven and Earth Chessboard soared into the sky, expanding across the heavens, blocking the view of Li Che’s courtyard.
"Sir, are you going to cultivate?" Cangyuan, looking somewhat bewildered, watched as Li Che sat cross-legged and began to enter a cultivation state.
Li Che glanced at him and directly pulled out a hundred Fire Warding Pills, handing them to Cangyuan: "You should practice too."
Xi Xi had already cheerfully taken a hundred Fire Warding Pills from Li Che.
Now at the 9th-rank Divine Engineer Dao Fruit, Li Che's Star Plucking Eye could easily analyze the Fire Warding Pill without any issues.
Although the pill was of high quality, its actual refinement difficulty was not great.
The special environment was the main reason for its high rank. In reality, the Fire Warding Pill was only highly valued in Doutian Palace City; outside, it was merely a master-level pill.
Xi Xi cultivated in the courtyard, taking Fire Warding Pills while practicing, thoroughly enjoying herself.
The divine essence in the courtyard swirled like a storm, rapidly enveloping her body.
Li Che, through the Heaven and Earth Chessboard, blocked out external perceptions. When the divine essence in the courtyard was completely absorbed, Li Che would slowly release the chessboard, drawing in more divine essence from the outside to gradually refill the courtyard without causing too much commotion.
Li Che naturally entered a cultivation state as well.
He didn’t even need Fire Warding Pills. Having mastered the Primordial Fire Tribulation, he was highly interested in the Earth Vein Fire hidden beneath Doutian Palace City.
He even considered trying to draw it out but thought better of it, considering the consequences.
"This Doutian Palace City... it’s filled with powerful figures!"
After deploying the Heaven and Earth Chessboard, Li Che kept it minimized above the courtyard, afraid of expanding it and drawing the attention of the strong.
He could faintly sense numerous fluctuations of the fundamental essence of heaven and earth.
Each fluctuation represented a Nirvana Celestial King!
In addition, the life and death aura from the Netherworld Path made his Hell Dao Fruit pulse.
The number of Nirvana Celestials in Doutian Palace City was likely in the double digits, including Nirvana Celestial Kings and Near-Celestial Kings!
Of course, the most important was Immortality!
Since entering Doutian Palace City, Li Che had been extremely cautious. After all, Lord Immortal was a Celestial Immortal, immensely powerful and terrifying.
He was a being above Earth Immortals, and the current Li Che was far inferior in comparison.
Even with the ultimate technique, Heaven and Earth Dao Body, Li Che couldn’t guarantee it could withstand a Celestial Immortal.
However, he hadn’t sensed Lord Immortal’s aura.
Like the aura of the Qitian Temple deity, it was elusive and difficult to perceive.
Lord Immortal’s aura was similarly undetectable.
Li Che had even curiously asked Ji Shaohao about it.
"Lord Immortal is suppressing that demon monkey..."
"The Yulian Demon Monkey is no ordinary being. During the First God Tide, this demon monkey displayed power on par with a Celestial Immortal. The Willow Wand even killed an Earth Immortal and nearly toppled the Obscure Heavenly Court with Yulian’s Daughter."
Ji Shaohao explained.
"During the First God Tide, apart from Yulian’s Daughter, the demon monkey was the most vicious. The Third Prince was the next in line..."
"Regarding the Three-Eyed Erlang True Lord, he lived up to his name as a True Lord who could match anyone in battle, causing the least bloodshed among the Yulian deities."
In the courtyard.
Air currents intertwined and roared, Li Che sat cross-legged on the ground, his jet-black, sturdy hair dancing wildly. In his eyes, the dual-colored Great Way Long River twisted together like a braid, surging and flowing.
Suddenly.
Li Che's eyes flickered, the Dao light within them gradually calming down.
He slowly exhaled, causing Cangyuan and Xi Xi, who were still in the midst of cultivation, to stop.
Li Che inhaled deeply, absorbing all the cultivation energy in the courtyard into his abdomen.
Standing up, he opened the courtyard gate.
Outside, Ji Shaohao stood in a white robe, his jet-black hair shimmering with divine light, his appearance strikingly handsome, as if he were radiating a glow.
Seeing Li Che, Ji Shaohao immediately smiled warmly.
His gaze swept over the courtyard, noticing the scattered wood shavings and the divine sculpture that was halfway completed, drawing divine essence. The smile on his face grew even wider.
He truly admired such diligent and ambitious Divine Sculptor Immortal Hands.
As for the other nine Divine Sculptor Immortal Hands from Xuanxiao Heaven, they were only interested in eating and drinking, which Ji Shaohao found rather disappointing.
"Little Emperor, are we going to a restaurant again today?"
"I won't be going today... The Divine Sculptor Immortal Hand Conference is approaching, and I need to focus on improving my divine sculpting skills."
Li Che's face showed a wry smile.
Ji Shaohao laughed and waved his hand. He wasn't the type to go to a restaurant every day; occasionally, he would skip a day.
"No, Immortal Hand Cangche, you misunderstood. The third disciple of Lord Immortal at Doutian Palace, the Golden Crane King, is hosting a pre-conference banquet for the Divine Sculptor Immortal Hand Conference. He has invited us to bring our most promising Immortal Hands to make a good impression."
"I plan to take you along to leave a good impression on the Golden Crane King."
Ji Shaohao said with a smile.
Li Che's lips twitched... What was the difference between this and going to a restaurant?
"Fu Shaohui, Shi Shaokai, and the young emperors from the Three-Eyed Erlang True Lord's ancient village will also bring their most promising Divine Sculptor Immortal Hands to the banquet. This time... there might be an early clash of divine sculpting skills. Immortal Hand Cangche, don't let me down."
Ji Shaohao's expression turned serious.
After speaking, Ji Shaohao lightly waved his sleeve, and a brilliant eight-leaf Dao Essence Crystal appeared.
"This eight-leaf Dao Essence Crystal... if you can make me proud at this banquet and outshine the Divine Sculptor Immortal Hands under the young emperors from the ancient village, I will gift it to you!"
Ji Shaohao clenched his teeth, making a significant sacrifice!
This was an eight-leaf Dao Essence Crystal!
Even for someone of Ji Shaohao's status, it was a rare and valuable resource!
A true top-tier resource!
Li Che took a deep breath, the words of refusal that were about to escape his mouth were swallowed back down.
Ji Shaohao was indeed wealthy and generous, offering too much!
Eight-leaf Dao Essence Crystal...
If given to Xi Xi, it could greatly accelerate her cultivation!
As long as Xi Xi's cultivation progressed quickly, it could suppress the Prison Lotus Curse...
So, Li Che was completely swayed!
"Little Emperor Ji! Rest assured, I will do everything in my power to make you proud, even if it means risking my life!"
Ji Shaohao laughed heartily.
Then, he took Li Che's hand and led him out of the courtyard.
Of course, Li Che didn't forget to bring Xi Xi. There would surely be good things at this banquet, and eating them would greatly benefit her cultivation.
In the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, resources were hard to come by, so they should take advantage of any opportunities to gain them.
Father and daughter followed Ji Shaohao out of the courtyard in the Obscure Heavenly Court.
They boarded an extremely luxurious Dragon Horse Carriage, which traveled along the wide road of Doutian Palace, where crimson flames cascaded like waterfalls on both sides.
Soon, the carriage stopped in front of an incredibly luxurious pavilion.
The pavilion was resplendent with gold and jade, its beams and pillars intricately carved, and divine light enveloped it. Each tile was made of divine essence crystal, intricately carved with patterns by Immortal Hands.
"The Drunken Eight Trigrams Treasure Pavilion!"
Li Che had heard of this pavilion, the most extravagant place in Doutian Palace.
Even when going to a restaurant, Ji Shaohao had never brought them here.
At the foot of the pavilion.
Luxurious carriages met.
Fu Shaohui and Shi Shaokai stepped out of their carriages, each followed by a Divine Sculptor Immortal Hand.
Their gazes met, sharp and intense.
Li Che quietly followed behind Ji Shaohao.
However, the three young emperors had not yet confronted each other when their expressions suddenly changed.
They abruptly turned their heads, looking deep into Doutian Palace.
Boom—!!!
A terrifying explosion erupted!
A powerful and terrifying ape cry echoed, breaking through all barriers as if it had shattered the lid of a pill furnace!
A golden staff burst forth, radiating countless rays of light!
Even Li Che was shaken, his heart racing as he looked in disbelief!
What?!
This momentum... could it be the Qitian Great Sage...
Escaped?!
