As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1572: 417: Dao Fruit's Fourfold Transformation, Demon Immortal Nine Turns; Little Niu Demon Xi Xi Walks on Thin Ice
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
The [Ten Thousand Demon Emperor] Dao Fruit manifested before Li Che’s eyes.
With just a single look, his very soul shuddered. He witnessed iridescent demon energy surging toward the heavens, followed by the silhouette of a Great Demon unfurling its wings until they eclipsed the sun and sky.
Buzz——
Li Che’s consciousness snapped back instantly.
Every fiber of his flesh and blood hummed with vibration. It felt as though demon energy was seeping from his pores, saturating his physical form and instigating a series of incredibly precise transformations.
[Dao Fruit lv3, further transformation achieved, prototype of divine powers “Ten Thousand Demon Emperor·Demon Suppression” acquired]
[Dao Fruit lv4, second transformation achieved, prototype of divine powers (Demon Suppression) evolved, shedding divine power (Demon Immortal) obtained, First Layer of Divine Skill (Demon Immortal Transformation) gained]
[Dao Fruit lv5, third transformation achieved, First Layer of Divine Skill (Demon Immortal Transformation) advanced, Second Layer of Divine Skill (Demon Immortal Nine Revolutions) unlocked]
Buzz buzz buzz——
Li Che’s heart raced as his eyes snapped open.
Before him, a sea of golden light rippled like water, weaving and converging into shimmering waves.
His breath turned ragged.
It was unprecedented; the Dao Fruit had undergone three consecutive transformations.
The sheer force and shock of this evolution were overwhelming!
This was a first for Li Che…
When the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit was initially born, Li Che had only mastered its fundamental traits, such as the ability to "see demon energy." He could perceive demon energy in various hues, categorized by different ranks and intensities.
But now, thanks to the evolution of the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit, the divine power prototypes and the First and Second Layers of Divine Skill had all manifested through these transformations!
Li Che stood amidst Mo City.
His spirit quivered as he began to probe the divine power prototypes and skills he had just inherited…
The divine power prototype, Ten Thousand Demon Emperor·Demon Suppression, functioned exactly as its name suggested. It was a method of imposing one's presence, exerting a natural and regal bloodline suppression over the entire demon race.
This suppression technique was remarkably similar to the Heavenly Might he had mastered within the Victory Over Heaven Dao Domain.
It implied that when Li Che faced the demon race, he could stack the effects of Demon Suppression with the Heavenly Might of his Victory Over Heaven Dao Domain to deliver a devastating double suppression.
Buzz buzz buzz…
A radiant glow slowly materialized in his vision.
[Demon Immortal (Divine Skill): Ancient demons are born eternal and undying, thus becoming Demon Immortals, capable of discerning between good and evil]
[First Layer: Demon Immortal Transformation]
[Second Layer: Demon Immortal Nine Revolutions]
…
The true words of divine power floated before him.
Born eternal and undying, such were the Demon Immortals!
Li Che inhaled sharply, his eyes reflecting a mixture of shock and skepticism.
“Undying and immortal?”
“Such arrogance! Who truly dares to claim they are undying? Who dares to claim immortality? Can one really reach such a state simply by becoming a Demon Immortal?”
Li Che’s eyes narrowed slightly.
He had grown used to the grandiosity of the Dao Fruit’s descriptions. However, he suspected that the Dao Fruit would require a total transformation to reach such a peak; its current state was likely insufficient and required further Cultivation.
Still, to reach the summit, one must first possess the ambition!
“Demon Immortal Transformation…”
As Li Che activated the Dao Fruit, thick plumes of demon energy instantly sprayed from his pores.
The air was filled with the thunderous roar of a dragon.
The demon energy he had drained from the Dragon God Crown Prince surged out from his body.
Suddenly, Li Che leaped into the sky, tearing through the downpour of Mo Rain. His body expanded and lengthened, shifting into the form of a divine dragon, every scale shimmering with a brilliant light!
“As long as I have absorbed demon energy, the Demon Immortal Transformation allows me to take the form of that demon…”
Li Che’s focus shifted again.
His form flickered, changing from the divine dragon into a radiant Golden Lion King.
With his mane billowing in the wind, he let out a roar that shook the heavens!
The Golden Lion King streaked through the air like a bolt of gold; in terms of raw power, it was vastly superior to the Golden-haired Hou.
As the golden radiance faded and the demon energy blurred, Li Che returned to his human shape, his black robes snapping in the wind as he drifted back to the ground.
“Second Layer of Divine Skills: Demon Immortal Nine Revolutions… the ability to reincarnate the power of nine demon immortals simultaneously, fusing them into my own being.”
Li Che stood at the heart of Mo City.
He formed a hand seal.
“First Turn of the Demon Immortal!”
Immediately…
Colossal amounts of demon energy gathered and surged. Li Che felt his power climbing rapidly. Even without activating the Explosive Divine Seed, his strength soared far beyond the natural limits of his physical body!
This was the power channeled directly from the Demon Immortals.
Demon energy condensed into the spectral image of the Dragon God Crown Prince’s divine dragon form, circling around Li Che.
“Demon Immortal, Second Turn!”
The seal in Li Che’s palm shifted once more!
Violent waves of demon energy erupted as the essence of the Golden Lion King mingled with that of the Dragon God Crown Prince.
The spectral divine dragon began to overlap with the Golden Lion King, undergoing a bizarre fusion.
It was as if a brand-new demonic entity was being forged!
It possessed a lion’s head and body, but with dragon bones, a dragon’s tail, dragon claws, and dragon scales!
Two distinct demon types had merged into a single entity!
It was truly…
Utterly bizarre!
A Dragon Lion!
The resulting demon energy was immense, far surpassing the simple sum of its parts!
Gradually, the demon energy dissipated behind him.
Li Che’s body echoed with the sound of popping joints as he stretched, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction.
Feeling refreshed, Li Che reached out to collect the Qiankun Jade belonging to the Dragon God Crown Prince and the three Dragon Sons. He swept through the contents with his spirit, tallying the loot with a smile. There wasn't an overwhelming amount, and Li Che no longer felt the same rush from gaining sudden wealth as he once did.
Nevertheless, he still savored the process of harvesting and organizing his spoils.
His only regret was that the clash with the Dragon God Crown Prince had done almost nothing to progress the maturity of the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit.
This was understandable, however. Throughout the fight, Li Che had maintained total dominance over the Dragon God Crown Prince.
The physical buffs provided by the Martial Immortal Golden Body were simply too overwhelming.
