As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1675 - 439: I Come Bearing Heroes—What Say You? Sneaking Off to Meet the Training Emperor Xi Xi
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
If the Divine Fetus manages to manifest, it marks the achievement of the Great God realm.
For Li Che, this step presents considerable challenges, mainly because his Martial Immortal Golden Body possesses such immense strength.
Seated in a cross-legged position within the study.
A faint smile tugged at Li Che’s lips, as every breakthrough fills the heart with delight.
Three days had flown by, arriving at the scheduled day when Lv Qiankun, Lv Taibai, and their companions planned to journey to Qi Tian City as a group.
Li Che’s robe, adorned with a golden lotus pattern, billowed gently in the breeze.
A sudden idea sparked in his mind.
He stepped into the Tao Tribulation Space.
At present, he had command over two forms of Tao Tribulation: the Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame and the Primordial Sky-cutting Storm...
Treating them equally, Li Che started to endure the refining force from both Tao Tribulations!
BOOM—!!!
Agony, thrill, destruction, ripping apart...
Through the relentless assaults from the dual Tao Tribulations, Li Che stood firm, unyielding as a boulder.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—
Inside the study, waves of divinity rolled in like surging ocean tides.
Li Che collapsed onto the wooden floor, his gaze empty as he fixed it on the ceiling above.
A single tear appeared to softly trace down from the edge of his eye.
In front of him, glowing lights danced and shimmered.
[Tao Tribulation: Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame (3%), Primordial Sky-cutting Storm (1%)]
Primordial Sky-cutting Storm!
Li Che had at last gained full control over this Tao Tribulation force!
The second variety of Tao Tribulation power!
Li Che brushed the tear from his eye’s corner, flipped himself up, and rose to his feet. As the disorienting ache slowly receded, clear thinking regained control over his form.
A grin of pure happiness spread across his face without restraint.
His five fingers extended outward, humming—
In an instant, a thread of cyan wind swirled playfully on his fingertips, forming a single strand of wind.
Rip—
A single thread of wind slashed across, tearing space apart right away. Boundless darkness yawned from the gash, refusing to close for quite some time, while the horrifying slicing force appeared capable of shredding all things!
It had the ability to slice through divinity, air, space, light, and even thoughts along with the senses—nothing escaped its severing edge!
Gazing at this cyan Sky-cutting Storm, a spark of excitement lit up in Li Che’s eyes.
Could this Tao Tribulation force be merged into the Thousand Mountains Solo Divine Blade, that Divine Seed Martial Art, to directly evolve it into... an Immortal Seed?!
It ought to... work, wouldn’t it?!
Thousand Mountains Solo Immortal Slaying Blade!
With that notion, waves of emotion stirred within Li Che, making his mind buzz with heightened activity right then.
"The fusion of Tao Tribulation and Divine Seed might create Immortal Seed Martial Arts!"
"The Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame can be integrated into Myriad Transformations Dragon Elephant, this Divine Seed Martial Art I created, to become Immortal Seed Martial Arts!"
Li Che’s feelings surged wildly, and even the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit vibrated strongly in that instant, delivering a powerful boost to his insights and grasp of the martial way!
Wasting no time, Li Che promptly entered Mo City.
He set about trying to blend Tao Tribulation into his martial techniques, aiming to raise their rank.
A soft rain fell lightly over Mo City.
"Ah hahaha—I died again!"
Letting out a hearty laugh, far off in the distance, Gu Yinxuan, busy with his poison refinement, transformed into skin like a toad’s, swelling up in spots before exploding with a "pop," releasing clouds of toxic vapor.
After quite a while, he reformed his Soul Capturing body and got back to working on the deadly poison in the [Three-legged Golden Toad Pendant].
Li Che cast a quick look his way, then returned to his martial practice, no longer fazed by the sight.
This marked the eighth occasion that Gu Yinxuan had perished from his own poisons.
Crafting poisons really is a perilous occupation.
Leave the risky tasks to the experts and allow them to perish in the process.
Gu Changqing had absorbed the Soul Capturing from Gu Yangxuan, and truthfully, after taking in merely one-third of Gu Yangxuan’s Soul Capturing, he had already met the requirements for advancing through Divine Tribulation.
The leftover two-thirds from Gu Yangxuan got drawn away by Grandmaster Huang Mei, along with Heavenly Defect and Earth Defect.
Regrettably, only Huang Mei managed to qualify for the Divine Tribulation breakthrough.
Since Huang Mei had already attained half-step Divine Tribulation, making the leap came more easily to her.
Conversely, Heavenly Defect and Earth Defect fell short on their groundwork, mostly depending on joint techniques to achieve half-step Martial God level of fighting strength.
Huang Sword Wine’s Temple God Meat Ball kept throbbing steadily, hungering for Dao Yun Divine Crystals.
Li Che understood that what it required were Dao Yun Divine Crystals at the Three Pure Ranks; those at the Four Imperial Taoist level wouldn’t suffice for Huang Sword Wine.
To enable Huang Sword Wine’s shift into a full Temple God, they might need to seek solutions once in Qi Tian City.
Whoosh—
Gu Changqing abruptly opened his eyes: "Lord, I’m about to break through the realm!"
With a mighty roar, Gu Changqing soared upward into the heavens, yet moments later, a grim expression crossed his features.
For Gu Changqing realized he lacked command over the Power of Tribulation.
Differing from Grandmaster Huang Mei, who wielded the Shenxiao Thunder Dao Position and thus ascended straight into the Dao Position upon her advance, bypassing the usual Divine Tribulation trial.
Soul Capturing advances without claiming spots in the Dao Position quotas.
Upon detecting the circumstances following Grandmaster Huang Mei’s success, Li Che felt a profound sense of admiration.
Soul Capturing stands as a truly audacious invention.
It defies death, and its breakthroughs don’t consume Dao Position slots.
One must remember, the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations... impose limits on Dao Position numbers, with one Calamity allowing three Dao Positions and one Tribulation permitting three more.
Thus, along the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations path, a mere thirty-six positions exist altogether.
And for figures like Gu Yangxuan and Gu Yinxuan, once their Divine Tribulations descend and convert into Soul Capturing, the Dao Positions they once held open up again.
Yet through becoming Soul Capturing, they preserve their Divine Tribulation might, along with command over the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations forces...
One can only say that Soul Capturing operates as something of an outlier creation.
Still, for a Soul Capturing like Gu Changqing, who hasn’t undergone a Divine Tribulation breakthrough, gaining a Dao Position or mastering the Power of Disaster remains out of reach.
Li Che halted his martial training, pondered briefly, and then snapped his fingers.
A violet burst of Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame launched forward, racing straight toward Gu Changqing.
