As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1918 - 493: The Third Fierce Beast of the Ink-Splattering Ten Fiends, Burning Void Huo Dou—A Father Cannot Complain of Fatigue
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
In actuality, Zhou Heng had already conveyed the unfolding situation to Li Che.
The Supreme Xuanzhen and Supreme Jialou had already become aware that something untoward had occurred with the Sky Wolf Supreme. Consequently, Fang Hanshu was required to return to Qi Tian City to take charge of matters. Should any significant changes arise within the Inner City, it would be most beneficial to promptly stabilize the prevailing circumstances.
Li Che remained quiet. Following Fang Hanshu's departure, he continued to fix his gaze upon the remains of the Sky Wolf Demon God Supreme.
Then, he slowly narrowed his eyes.
Behind him, the formidable Ten Vicious Ink Splashes was actively consuming the demonic energy and soul of the Sky Wolf Demon God Supreme, undergoing a crucial process of brewing and transformation. It appeared to be in the midst of manifesting the third vicious beast.
Li Che did not immediately proceed with Soul Capturing. Setting aside the question of its success, he pondered if the transformation of the Ten Vicious Ink Splashes could still advance should the attempt fail.
Given that Li Che still required the assistance of this Supreme, he opted against Soul Capturing and instead chose to directly facilitate its transformation into one of the ten vicious beings.
Furthermore, the Qi Tian Inner City had also registered the anomaly concerning the Sky Wolf Supreme. Thus, compelling the Sky Wolf Supreme to engage in Soul Capturing and clandestinly return would serve little practical purpose.
The Sky Wolf Supreme had unequivocally forfeited its eligibility to serve as a mere chess piece in their grand scheme.
Naturally, this decision was also influenced by Li Che's development of a peculiar and unique perception.
The Space-Time Golden Wheel Dao Fruit residing within his chest had unexpectedly pulsed with energy upon his vanquishing of the Sky Wolf Demon God Supreme.
Though he hadn't initially grasped its significance, the recollection now became clear.
With a subtle shift in his intent, he spread his fingers and extracted a wisp of demonic energy from the defeated Sky Wolf.
This nascent demonic energy was instantly absorbed by the Space-Time Golden Wheel. In the subsequent moment, Li Che perceived a colossal Space-Time Golden Wheel manifesting before him.
The Space-Time Golden Wheel began to rotate, and with a sudden, sharp movement, the fabric of space itself tore open.
Then...
Li Che beheld, situated behind the Space-Time Golden Wheel, the Qiankun Space belonging to the Sky Wolf Demon God Supreme!
The very repository for hidden treasures!
Li Che's eyes blazed with renewed intensity!
Since his initial intention was to transform the Sky Wolf into one of the ten vicious entities, what need was there for the convoluted process of Soul Capturing?
Soul Capturing was merely a means to persuade the Sky Wolf to voluntarily reveal its Qiankun Space. However, the inherent risk of failure associated with Soul Capturing, coupled with the vibrational feedback from the Space-Time Golden Wheel, led Li Che to abandon that path and proceed directly to the ultimate objective.
"It truly functioned..."
"The Space-Time Golden Wheel can indeed glimpse into another's concealed Qiankun Space?"
Li Che's gaze scintillated with a newfound understanding.
Yet, shortly thereafter, Li Che shook his head. There must exist inherent limitations; it could only offer such insight posthumously...
Nevertheless, even with this restriction, the capability was more than sufficient!
Even so, the act of pinpointing the spatial anchor and successfully locating the Sky Wolf Supreme's Qiankun Space resulted in a significant augmentation of the Space-Time Golden Wheel Dao Fruit's maturity.
Remarkably, its maturity level escalated directly to a full 50%!
This development considerably lifted Li Che's spirits, fostering increased anticipation and hope for the Space-Time Golden Wheel Dao Fruit.
The primary catalyst for his elation, of course, was the revelation of an entirely novel method for enhancing the Space-Time Golden Wheel Dao Fruit's potency.
Previously, the Dao Fruit's enhancement had been attributed to journeys between Strange Que and the mortal realm, coupled with the assimilation of temporal energies. Now, with an additional method available, Li Che's mood naturally turned jubilant.
With a controlled clench of his fingers, he began to siphon the substantial demonic energy.
The Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit quivered, voraciously and insatiably consuming the available power.
In an instant...
Li Che seemed to transform into a boundless ocean of demonic energy, gathering and consolidating all the surrounding power within himself.
The Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit, akin to a parched traveler traversing a desolate desert, commenced a fervent and desperate siphoning.
Li Che experienced an unparalleled sensation of profound satisfaction!
As the siphoning process reached its culmination, a dazzling luminescence emanated before Li Che's very eyes.
[Dao Fruit: Ten Thousand Demon Emperor (LV7, 10%)]
The observed increase was somewhat less than he had anticipated, merely a 10% rise. However, Li Che was not entirely taken aback.
Enhancements invariably become progressively more arduous once a Dao Fruit attains LV7.
It was reasonable to infer that subsequent transformations of the Dao Fruit would present even greater challenges.
Numerous Dao Fruit masters found themselves perpetually stalled at the Eighth Transformation, unable to attain the Ninth, primarily due to the escalating difficulty encountered with each advancement...
As for Li Che...
Possessing such a multitude of Dao Fruits, he likely confronted challenges far exceeding those faced by singular Dao Fruit masters.
Moreover, with his daughter's continued growth, Li Che's collection of Dao Fruits would undoubtedly expand even further...
"Hoo—"
A sigh escaped Li Che's lips, his gaze alight as the transformation notification for the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit materialized before him. He observed it intently, not fixating on the specific wording.
His thoughts churned, setting his mind ablaze with contemplation.
One cannot give equal attention to all matters; there is always a hierarchy of importance.
Therefore...
He recognized the necessity of formulating a strategy for his Dao Fruits.
However, as his daughter matured with each passing year, acquiring an additional Dao Fruit, the number of Dao Fruits would inevitably increase in the future. How should he approach this planning?
This presented a genuine puzzle.
Boom—!!!
As Li Che's mind quivered.
The churning ink behind him surged, the unfurled scroll vibrating incessantly with a rustling sound before it smoothly extended.
The likeness of a savage and supremely formidable beast began to materialize upon the scroll!
It mirrored the appearance of the Sky Wolf, yet it exuded a terrifying demonic aura, akin to a menacing canine, possessing sharp fangs, robust limbs, its entire being engulfed in dark flames, its black fur rippling and exceptionally pristine, as if completely saturated with ink.
Slowly, the ink coalesced once more.
[Burning Void Huo Dou]
The third fearsome beast among the ten!
The dark flames blazed fiercely, a singular eye adorning its brow opened, spewing ink-like black flames that warped the very void.
With a powerful bound, it plunged into space, disappearing without a trace, and with another powerful stride, it appeared to ignite an opening in the void, re-emerging from an entirely different location!
Rustle, rustle...
Chains writhed and coiled themselves around the body of the Burning Void Huo Dou!
