As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1545 - 411: Borrowing 2 Luck Golden Lotuses From the Great Vista, Invincible Below the God Realm
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
Both combatants are within the Divine Tribulation realm. Unless a life-or-death struggle is mandatory, unleashing their full power would be foolish, as it would only trigger the lock of the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations, causing them to descend prematurely.
There was absolutely no reason to take such a risk.
Nevertheless, Gu Qianchi felt an increasing weight in his chest...
This enigmatic Underworld...
Could they have formed an alliance with the Hunting God Pavilion?
Is it possible...
That this Underworld also hails from the Deceit Que Core Area within the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths?!
...
...
A terrifying level of Qi-blood, resembling a collapsed dam, surged and intertwined with immense force, churning and boiling!
Bang bang bang bang bang——!!!
The earth beneath the entire encampment detonated violently, sinking into a deep crater as massive plumes of dust rose into the air.
Immediately after, a Heaven and Earth chessboard stretched out, winding and interlocking across the sky.
It acted as a seal, enveloping the entire camp.
Even Gu Qianchi, who remained locked in a stalemate with the God Hunter Killer high above the Heavenly Dome, found himself unable to perceive anything happening inside the camp...
Witnessing this scene caused Gu Qianchi to lose all hope of intervention.
The Underworld...
What a formidable organization.
Gu Qianchi and Zhao Beidou had previously heard Xie Yushen describe how the Underworld’s techniques were peerless in assassination, always striking from the shadows when least expected.
He hadn't wanted to believe it then.
But now, he was witnessing the bizarre and unsettling nature of the Underworld with his own eyes!
Boom——!!!
Clouds of smoke and debris billowed upward, blotting out the light.
The situation within the haze was invisible to outsiders; only the blinding, relentless golden radiance—the light of the Yama’s erupting Qi-blood—could be seen.
The camp was swallowed by an endless shroud of dust.
No one could discern what was happening inside...
Yet, none dared to charge blindly into the fray.
Because the one inside was the Underworld Yama...
The same figure who had personally executed a clone of the King of Quelling Chaos, Ji Molie!
What kind of horrifying power did such a being command?
With combat strength reaching the half-step Martial God level... who among the experts present would dare to challenge him?
Ning Caisen certainly wouldn't move, and Huang Mei naturally stayed back. That left only the blunt Sect Master of the Sichuan Sword Pavilion, Gu Cheng—but while Gu Cheng was straightforward, he was no fool!
Inside the swirling dust.
It was far from dark.
Beneath Li Che’s black-and-white Yama mask, a hint of doubt flickered.
He stared at Xie Yushen.
That Cloth Robe National Master, Xie Yushen... was far too composed!
Did he possess some hidden trump card?
Li Che’s potent Heaven and Earth Soul suddenly expanded, and he pushed the Heaven and Earth chessboard to its absolute limit, attempting to detect any hidden variables.
And yet...
He found nothing out of the ordinary.
Xie Yushen appeared extremely weak.
Was he just putting up a front?
If that was the case...
Then...
Die!
Li Che lunged forward, his terrifying Qi-blood pressure crashing down like a tidal wave!
As his five fingers tightened into a fist, the air between them detonated, letting out a savage roar!
He didn't even bother with complex martial arts.
A simple, direct punch swept forward, making the very atmosphere scream with unbearable sonic booms!
Xie Yushen’s long hair whipped backward in the wind of the strike.
A faint, self-deprecating smile touched his eyes.
To think...
Just as his grand ambitions were taking flight, intending to topple mountains, dismantle Sects, and unify the world’s Qi fortune... just as his journey had truly begun...
He faced the brink of death in his very first true conflict.
For someone like Xie Yushen, who prided himself on his intellect, it was a deeply frustrating sensation.
With the body of a mere mortal, he had played a dangerous game of influence, using nothing but his silver tongue to suppress the Great Divine Sects and force even the Divine Sect to bow to the Imperial Court.
"Sigh..."
"The Underworld."
Xie Yushen had accounted for every variable, yet he had never calculated for the interference of the Underworld!
It was truly...
Infuriating!
They were ruining his magnificent plan to unify the world's Qi fortune!
A look of intense defiance suddenly flashed in Xie Yushen’s eyes.
Boom——!!!
However, that defiance didn't last long.
A monstrous punch slammed into his face, its searing, destructive power threatening to erase everything in its path.
"Hmm?!"
Behind the mask, Li Che’s expression shifted with surprise.
He felt a sudden resistance.
Xie Yushen...
As expected, he did have a final hidden move!
Otherwise, given Xie Yushen’s actual Cultivation, that single punch should have pulverized his flesh and blood, erasing him from existence entirely.
Truly annoying, one hidden card after another...
Buzz buzz buzz——
Suddenly.
Li Che’s face grew solemn beneath his mask.
Pressure...
Faintly, he actually felt a mounting sense of pressure!
This weight appeared out of nowhere.
It felt as though the heavens and the earth had combined their might to crush him in an instant!
It was incredibly bizarre!
Boom——
With Li Che’s current strength, a single punch should have obliterated a One-Open Martial Saint instantly, yet Xie Yushen remained intact.
A brilliant golden light erupted, shining with extreme intensity. Then, countless golden threads began to weave together around him, slowly forming a tangible shape...
It was a... Golden Lotus!
The Golden Lotus lifted Xie Yushen into the air; it was a bud preparing to bloom, its petals beginning to unfurl...
Xie Yushen spread his arms wide and tilted his head back.
He seemed to be turning into solid gold—his hair, his skin, and even his pupils took on a metallic golden hue!
His entire being was transformed into a luster of pure gold!
Vaguely...
A majestic force of heaven and earth began to swirl around him.
It was as if, in this moment, Xie Yushen...
Had merged with the world itself!
Rumble rumble——!!!
Air currents howled and surged violently. At the center of Xie Yushen’s forehead, a Golden Lotus Godly Pattern appeared to be blossoming.
...
...
Divine Capital, Second City.
Lotus Pavilion.
In the pavilion's courtyard sat a large water tank with a bamboo ladder resting against it.
Inside the tank, there were originally three lotus buds. Now, one of those buds had fully opened.
The once-still water surface began to ripple with continuous waves...
Buzz——
Suddenly, a resonant humming sound filled the air.
The surrounding space seemed to crack open. From behind the rift, a pair of eyes peered down, watching the trembling, blooming lotus within the water tank.
