As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1567: 416: Devouring Dragon Energy—Three Successive Evolutions of the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor, Old Dragon God Comes East Yet Finds No Dragon Sons or Grandsons [Monthly Ticket Requested]_2...
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
This immense strength was a gift from the Dragon Emperor Pearl!
The Old Dragon God had bestowed this treasure upon him, marking him as the final hope for the Dragon God Clan's younger generation to ascend to the Dragon God Realm.
“Bull Demon——!!!”
A furious roar erupted from the dragon’s maw, the Dragon God Crown Prince’s voice triggering a relentless series of echoes and vibrations throughout the area!
Suddenly, he jerked his head upward. Three dark silhouettes had appeared abruptly in the sky above the city, and he instantly identified them as his three brothers!
They had arrived...
And every single one had been captured!
What exactly was this Netherworld Bull Demon planning? How could he be so brazen?!
Shock and rage consumed the Dragon God Crown Prince. He was well aware that by triggering the Dragon Emperor Pearl, he possessed the combat strength of a half-step Dragon God. Furthermore, if the three Dragon Sons combined their powers, they were capable of unleashing an attack equivalent to a half-step Dragon God!
Two entities at the half-step Divine Realm!
The Underworld had dared to drag them both in so openly...
Did he not even consider the strategy of defeating them one by one?
Just how little did he respect their power?!
Buzz——
The Dragon God Crown Prince’s frame shuddered slightly as he reverted to his human form, his eyes burning with a mixture of disbelief and fury.
“I suggest you remain in your dragon form.”
A composed voice resonated between the heavens and the earth.
A sound akin to a lightning strike cracked across the sky. Then, the Bull Demon’s massive, mountain-like silhouette emerged. Directly behind him, a colossal Qi Blood Furnace manifested, glowing with the brilliance of a rising Great Sun.
Its radiance draped the entire dark city in a layer of shimmering golden silk!
“Bull Demon! You are courting death!”
The Dragon God Crown Prince spoke with a voice like ice.
Behind him, the three Dragon Sons appeared, their faces twisted in shock and resentment. They had been in a deep slumber, as the harshness of winter was unpleasant for them; they usually spent the entire season sleeping.
Without warning, their rest had been shattered, and they had been tossed into this city.
That Divine Tribulation Cultivator, Zhao Beidou—hadn't he claimed that he had smashed the Underworld’s city to pieces?
It appeared that even a Divine Tribulation expert was prone to boasting!
Where was the destruction?!
Boom——!!!
Li Che, hidden behind his Bull Demon Mask, stared down at the four Dragon Sons with indifference. Inside his chest, the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit pulsed with a rapid rhythm.
Thick demon energy was immediately reflected in his eyes.
As his gaze swept over them, he raised an eyebrow. He noticed that the Dragon God Crown Prince’s demon energy was a deep green, while the energy surrounding the three Dragon Sons was a paler green-white.
So, there were varying levels of density in demon energy?
It seemed a fundamental trait of the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit was the ability to clearly perceive the intensity of demon energy within the Demon Race.
He could categorize them by color.
This meant that no member of the Demon Race could stay hidden from him.
Even if they assumed human shapes, their demon energy would never escape Li Che’s sight.
The demon energy radiating from the Golden-haired Hou was also a pale green-white, much like the three Dragon Sons, though it was of a lower grade than the energy of the Dragon God Crown Prince.
The Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit was practically craving the demon energy of the four members of the Dragon Clan standing before him.
Boom——!!!
Wasting no more time on words, Li Che’s body surged. The muscles and bones of his mountain-like physique vibrated, and golden Qi Blood erupted behind him as divine seeds shattered.
Li Che’s physical form awakened fully. At that moment, his Martial Immortal Golden Body caused him to radiate a magnificent light!
Two opponents at the half-step Martial God level... a perfect opportunity to test the limits of his Martial Immortal Golden Body!
In Li Che’s eyes, the paths of the Martial Immortal and the Martial God had diverged into two entirely different systems.
While both paths focused on strengthening the physical body, a Martial God’s Cultivation was now inextricably linked to divinity. They would open the Heavenly Gate and utilize the divine power flooding through it to refine their flesh and blood—that was the way of the Martial God.
The Dragon God Crown Prince focused his intent, opened his jaws, and unleashed a thunderous dragon’s chant!
The resulting sound waves exploded outward, creating an invisible sonic shockwave that warped the air and gripped the soul. It was as if all the wind and rain in the city had ceased to exist, replaced entirely by that echoing dragon’s roar!
The turbulent air waves shattered raindrops and scattered the black mist across the sky as they collided violently with the Bull Demon.
Deep within the Dragon God Crown Prince’s body, the Dragon Emperor Pearl released a surge of extreme demon energy, pushing his aura far beyond its normal limits!
Clenching his fist, his immense Qi Blood and physical might trembled against the void. Rampant divinity soared, and a draconic shadow seemed to weave behind the Dragon God Crown Prince!
Accompanied by a world-shaking roar, the Dragon God Crown Prince threw a punch. His fist was coated in fine dragon scales, appearing as though it were encased in dragon armor!
Boom!
It was a raw, direct clash of fists!
Li Che triggered his Martial Immortal Golden Body. His eyes burned with golden smoke, his blood boiled like liquid mercury, and his golden bones hummed in resonance!
A terrifying force exploded forth like a breaking dam!
Bang——!!!
The fists met with violent impact. The resulting shockwaves rippled vertically through the air, striking the space around them until it shook like a crumpled cloth, with faint cracks beginning to surface!
The air detonated with a sound like thunder!
After just a single exchange of blows, the Dragon God Crown Prince’s expression shifted dramatically!
Was this truly a human?!
Could a human actually possess such a physical body?
How could he be this powerful?!
Feeling the overwhelming force surging from Li Che’s fist like a mountain torrent, the strength the Dragon God Crown Prince had gained from the Dragon Emperor Pearl—which had elevated him to the half-step Divine Realm—seemed on the verge of collapsing. It felt as though his power was riddled with fractures, unable to endure the pressure!
Bang——!!!
The air behind them was compressed to its limit before exploding into spreading ripples!
The Dragon God Crown Prince was driven into the earth, his crushed fist soaked in blood and his bones shattered...
