As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1813 - 470: The Daughter of Prison Lotus, the Heavenly Slaughter Star, Actually Has a Father; the Equaling Heaven Protector Devours All Heaven and Earth Essence Qi [Monthly Ticket Requested]...
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
Seizing Fang Hanshu's soul posed no challenge whatsoever to Li Che.
Fang Hanshu's cultivation level remained rather low at present. Although bolstered by the Chief Supervisor's Heaven and Earth Will Power, such strength didn't truly belong to Fang Hanshu himself.
Therefore, Li Che effortlessly accomplished the soul capture.
Innumerable ink-black rays wove together, hazy and roiling, resembling dark clouds plunging from the heavens into the mortal realm.
Gradually, the Vast River started to churn.
Fang Hanshu's scholar's robe billowed, his fine beard swayed, and his eyes gradually parted, showing a gaze filled with solitary bewilderment and shock.
Chains clinked loudly all around, since Li Che had yanked Fang Hanshu straight from the Netherworld by force.
His fine beard drifting, Fang Hanshu seemed both stunned and suddenly insightful, his eyes gleaming as he fixed them on Li Che.
He at last comprehended why the cultivators who ventured into Mo City Fengdu had turned against their former loyalties.
And why the mighty ones had abandoned their old affiliations, devoting themselves entirely to the Underworld.
Those methods and that might were utterly horrifying, forcing submission deep within the spirit.
Above all, the Earthly Hell's Evil consisted solely of Li Che himself.
This Underworld, forever sowing disorder throughout the world, had always been just a single individual.
Every guess, every inference, amounted to nothing.
The supposed support for the Underworld, perhaps the Prison Lotus Camp, was nothing but a farce.
The All Gods of the Prison Lotus Camp hadn't fully recovered yet, having only brought back one Equaling Heaven. How could a Prison Lotus like that back the Underworld?
Fang Hanshu stood dumbfounded, his entire worldview completely overturned.
What an Underworld...
A truly astonishing Underworld.
His fine beard fluttering, Fang Hanshu straightened up, clasped his fists, and bowed: "Fang Hanshu, greets my Lord."
Li Che lounged in the ink-hued pavilion, cocked his head, and eyed Fang Hanshu: "Old Fang, no need to make things formal between us."
He produced the jade talisman from Fang Xinyuan and handed it over to Fang Hanshu with gravity.
"This is the item the Fang Family Ancestor left for you, owing to your resolve and dedication to upholding the Ancestor's wish to guard Equaling Heaven; hence, the Ancestor bestowed this inheritance upon you."
"This is a Supreme’s legacy."
Li Che spoke with utmost seriousness; this treasure held immense value and could spark a frenzy in the outside world, drawing hordes in pursuit.
Hearing this, a complicated look crossed Fang Hanshu's face: "Ancestor... has fallen?"
Li Che briefly outlined the events: "I'm sorry, the Fang Family Ancestor turned into the Temple Guardian Curse Corpse King incarnation, offering up his soul. I failed to seize his soul or rescue him."
Truth be told, even if soul capture had been feasible, the odds of success would have been slim.
After all, the Fang Family Ancestor was a Supreme.
Li Che's current battle prowess, though reaching Second Calamity First Tribulation, still fell far short of a Supreme's.
Snatching the soul of Second Calamity Second Tribulation or Third Tribulation experts offered some hope, but claiming a Three Calamities Supreme's soul was immensely tough, with a steep risk of failure.
"No need to apologize; it wasn't your fault."
Fang Hanshu lifted his gaze and let out a heavy sigh, tears flowing as he paid tribute to the Fang Family Ancestor's matchless loyalty and righteousness, his devotion to master and Dao.
Rumble——
Li Che looked skyward too, where the Heaven and Earth chessboard stretched across Mo City's heavens, projecting vivid scenes upon it.
Fang Hanshu gazed up as well; after honoring the Ancestor, he recalled his own death, and without the Lord's soul capture, he would have utterly feathered away, vanishing forever.
Truthfully, Fang Hanshu had foreseen this moment long ago, thus borrowing the Chief Supervisor's power, aware that across the entire Great Vista, only two figures could elevate that power to its peak.
One being the Qintian Observatory's Chief Supervisor, the other the Wushen Mountain's Great Witch God.
Fang Hanshu couldn't fathom the Chief Supervisor's actual might in the slightest.
He had steeled himself for death ages back; self-sacrifice was a path he'd chosen early on.
Yet he never dreamed he might live on.
Thanks to Li Che.
One could only call it a stroke of singular fortune.
Fang Hanshu tilted his head upward too, beholding the godly clash in the projection, sighing in awe.
The Qitian Temple God had revived, his divine might sweeping the Nine Heavens, while that colossal Six-winged Golden Cicada exuded sheer terror.
Resembling a massive palm, it relentlessly hunted the Qitian Temple God's somersaulting, golden-light-shifting locations, eager to crush and pin it down!
Deities collided here, their divine auras raging and blending with surging Tao Power.
Such cataclysmic force shook the earth, though neither were full gods.
Qitian had only just awakened, drawing flesh, essence, divinity, and Dao Yun from five Supremes to reclaim a portion of his divine strength.
That Six-winged Golden Cicada wasn't conjured directly by Sumeru's deity Golden Cicada either, merely a wisp of Jin Chanzi's divine aura...
Even so, their showdown qualified as world-shaking!
Rumble——!!!
Qitian Inner City failed to conceal this clash; the horrifying shockwaves rippled outward, reaching Qitian Outer City!
Outer City.
Numerous powerhouses scattered throughout the city shuddered in their forms, staring upward to see the skies over Qitian Inner City as if a vast swath had fractured!
Faint visions emerged, leaving onlookers horrified!
"A battle of deities?!"
"Qitian revived, locked in fierce combat with a god from beyond the Strange Que!"
"Terrifying..."
In that instant, all of Qitian Outer City erupted in commotion, for the divine battle was no longer mere fancy—they now witnessed it directly.
