As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1789 - 464: Opening the Coffin and Revealing the Great Saint’s Remains, Personally Bestowing the Equal to Heaven’s Face upon the Great Saint...
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
Heaven-shaking!
...
...
Qitian Inner City.
Tremors rocked the whole Inner City, palaces rocking back and forth, leaving all mighty experts in sheer terror.
While hunting for treasures, they burst from the halls, gazing in dread toward the Qitian Temple spot in the Qitian Inner City...
What's going on?
Why this massive uproar!
"Roar——!!!"
Over the Cloud Dome.
Endless Mysterious Fog burst forth explosively!
Clank, clank——
Giant chains whipped about like phoenix plumes, ripping space apart!
Hair whipping fiercely, the Temple Guardian Curse Corpse King's form emerged, etched with Cursed Seals. It was Equal Heaven Temple's founder, the Fang Family's Old Ancestor!
Dreadful Three Calamities Supreme aura crashed down like a shattered Divine Mountain, smashing all beneath it!
This fearsome pressure raged across the full Qitian Inner City akin to a storm, compelling every cultivator in the palaces to drop to their knees, completely rattled.
The crushing malice and intent to annihilate the world could plunge anyone into utter hopelessness!
Flee!
Overpowered by the shock, certain individuals refused to linger in Qitian Inner City and raced to the portal that led them in.
Lv Taibai's silver locks danced wildly as he clutched the Taibai Sword, dread churning in his gaze.
Far too horrifying...
Without holding back this Three Calamities Temple Guardian Curse Corpse King, it could wipe out every soul that stepped into the city!
Lv Qiankun hurried through the air to join Lv Taibai. They met up, faces etched with dire gravity.
"Stay or leave?"
That question haunted their minds.
"A Che and Old Fang... are still inside. Are we just going to leave like this?"
Lv Taibai wavered slightly.
He sensed Li Che had dashed toward the Qitian Temple.
Fang Hanshu, on the other hand...
He'd spotted the mighty awe river, and Fang Hanshu likely bolted to the Qitian Temple too.
Yet Lv Taibai failed to grasp why Fang Hanshu headed there.
Li Che wielded Underworld techniques for battle and flight, but what arsenal did Fang Hanshu possess?
Just those three jin from the Holy Sage Book?
"Wait... Let’s wait a bit longer..."
Lv Taibai breathed out and declared.
Lv Qiankun stayed silent. In the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, Lv Taibai remained Sect Master. Should they perish here, the Qian Yuan Divine Sect would plummet, yet this choice fell to Lv Taibai.
...
...
At that moment, with Li Che shoving the ancient coffin's lid.
Shakes didn't spare just Qitian Inner City—the Qitian Outer City quaked fiercely too!
Crowds in Qitian Outer City panicked even harder.
Buildings tumbled down in droves, huge fissures spiderwebbing across the earth!
Endless Mysterious Fog hissed upward from the splits.
Corrosive might filled the Divinity in that Mysterious Fog, pressing heavily even on numerous cultivators.
While Qitian Outer City underwent these savage upheavals.
Down the alley.
Warmth spilled from dim yellow lamps, orange hues soft and inviting.
Soft orange glow bathed the eatery, radiating calm utterly clashing with the chaos outside.
Xi Xi perched on her seat, legs kicking playfully, clutching a bowl of sesame oil wontons, gobbling them down with eager slurps.
Xi Xi adored this eatery. Ever since arriving, the owner fulfilled all her food wishes.
Thus, Xi Xi brimmed with real joy!
All of a sudden.
A faint shake hit the eatery; Xi Xi gulped her wonton in one go, eyes bulging wide.
Her gaze turned to the owner, mid-drag on his smoke.
He gave a subtle nod, signaling no need for concern.
The Big Black Dog, sprawled lazily by Xi Xi’s feet like a plush rug, abruptly raised its head, date-black eyes flashing ominously toward Qitian Inner City.
"Has the coffin been opened?"
"Will it be in time?"
Two fingers plucked the cigarette from the owner's lips.
He tapped off the ashes gently.
"If it’s not in time..."
...
...
Blazing hot, surging, roiling!
Qi and blood roared like flames, pride aflame!
Blasting heat surges tore through the whole Qitian Temple!
Energy pillars surged skyward to the ceiling, threatening to flip the temple upside down!
Thick beyond measure, Li Che’s Qi and blood shone with brilliant gold. Swirls spun from his backbone, a colossal furnace stretched wide, resembling a colossal Sun ascending!
Chains broke one by one inside the searing furnace!
Soaring!
Surging upward without cease!
Martial Immortal Dao Essence carved a spectral image encircling Li Che’s frame!
Fusing as one with heaven and earth, provoking the world's fury!
Li Che’s Martial Immortal Golden Body, forged like iron bones and steel sinews, erupted with never-before-seen dread power!
Cre-eak...
Cre-eak——!!!
Stone scraping stone boomed like thunderclaps, drumbeats of battle thundering from the Nine Heavens!
Reverberating across all of Qitian Temple!
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle——
Vast, rushing Divinity poured endlessly from the coffin's widening slit!
With the coffin lid cracked open, pushing it aside grew simple; Li Che just applied extra strength to slide it away.
Unveiling the contents of the stone coffin.
Li Che's heart pounded wildly, stare locked within.
Inside the stone coffin lay a plain-clothed, furry monkey-like figure, resting in still silence.
Golden lids shut over eyes, as if deep in serene sleep.
Skinny and wasted, the monkey bore no meat, just hide stretched taut over skeleton.
