Li Che successfully fuses an Ancient Talisman with his Mechanical Nine Divine Seals, boosting his Immortal Craft Dao Fruit. He then realizes he can upgrade his Extended Arm Heavenly Armor using this fusion, potentially creating an "Immortal Mecha". Meanwhile, Li Che cultivates three strands of Immortal Energy, preparing for future challenges.

Li Che sat upright within, his gaze deep and changing.

"The tenth Dao Fruit, the Great Sun Golden Crow Chariot... seems to follow the path of the Primordial Fire Tribulation, but it is somewhat different from the Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame."

Li Che’s eyes flickered, as if he had an insight.

The cycle of heaven and earth, the rotation of Yin and Yang...

The Dao Fruit, does it also abide by such cycles and rotations?

Nine is the ultimate number, completing a cycle?

For every year Xi Xi grows, I can obtain a Dao Fruit, but the subsequent Dao Fruits, after achieving the Five Sheddings, seemingly cannot escape the Primordial Nine Tribulations, and all belong to one of them...

Then, through the transformation of the Dao Fruits, continuously enhancing the power of the Primordial Nine Tribulations?!

Is this the case?

Li Che’s gaze slightly concentrated in contemplation.

This is merely his conjecture, but it’s likely to be so.

Of course, to verify this guess, one only needs to wait for the [Great Sun Golden Crow Chariot] to achieve the Five Sheddings, then the truth will be revealed.

The Dao Fruit of the Great Sun Golden Crow Chariot indeed gave Li Che quite a strong impact.

Which also confirmed the speculation of the myriad forms of Dao Fruits, but the most powerful aspect of the Great Sun Golden Crow Chariot should lie in the amplification of its oppressive aura...

Though it is called a chariot, it is actually a manifestation of majesty.

Li Che indeed found it quite practical.

Seated in the golden chariot, drawn by the Golden Crow, fiery brilliance erupted, the ten-foot Golden Crow spreading its wings, exceptionally radiant!

Within it, Li Che seemed to be enveloped in an incomparable dignity.

There was finally a sense of...

The true majesty belonging to the Master of Dao Fruits.

"The Immortal Craft Dao Fruit is slowly transforming, the Space-Time Golden Wheel Dao Fruit is also refining the Immortal Device Lotus Lamp and transforming..."

"The Dao Fruits of the Chess Saint, the Fruit of the Heavenly Dao from Within the Painting, along with the Lei-Ci Dao Body and Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit... these Dao Fruits are all at the Five Sheddings, how can I achieve the Six Taoist Fruit Transmutations... I have no clue."

Li Che sat in the chariot, his mind moved, instantly breaking away from Mo City.

He reappeared in the sky above Qianyuan Dao City.

The Heaven and Earth chessboard rotated, concealing the Great Sun Golden Crow Chariot, making it imperceptible to everyone.

The Golden Crow spread its wings, pulling the golden chariot, flowing with countless brilliance, heading towards the heavenly dome and vast sun, siphoning the sun’s eruption of its essence.

The Taotie Swallowing Sun Cauldron was rapidly siphoning the sun essence, refining the True Sun Fire!

This True Sun Fire, Li Che could summon at any time, belongs to a kind of celestial flame, blazing and pure, extremely tyrannical!

The terrifying aura, accompanied by the Golden Crow spreading its wings, spread and expanded.

The void seemed to be distorted.

Li Che slowly stood up from the golden chariot, the Taotie Swallowing Sun Cauldron shook.

"Cultivation has not improved much temporarily, it’s time to complete the settlement."

"After so many days of silence, they really take me, Li Che, for a sickly cat..."

Li Che gently smiled.

The five fingers spread open, lightly flicking on the Taotie Swallowing Sun Cauldron, instantly the True Sun Fire roared and surged.

The Golden Crow spread its wings, ten-foot extension!

Feathers completely formed by light and flame unfolded and soared, like fireworks scattering!

The Golden Crow cried out, as if a bell was cracking the clouds, pulling the chariot, the light wheel turned, roaring magnificently, galloping towards the distance!

Roar——

Li Che sat in the golden chariot, his figure brilliant, the chariot raced forward, pulling a long river of flowing fire behind, the trail lingering in the vast sky.

After leaving Qianyuan Dao City, Li Che dispersed the concealment of the Heaven and Earth chessboard.

Suddenly, the oppressive aura poured out, mountains and rivers shook, where it passed, mountains, lakes, and rivers were all dyed with blazing golden brilliance, rocks and vegetation were instantly scorched, then regained vitality, exploding into new life!

Above the Grand Canal, the river water bubbled fiercely, the demon beasts within suddenly trembled in terror!

The speed of the Great Sun Golden Crow Chariot was too fast!

As if flames and clouds swept across the sky.

Many cultivators within the cities only felt the oppressive aura overhead, divinity stagnating.

Even the Martial Saints could not even mobilize their Qi-Blood, fearfully raising their heads.

Then they saw in the sky there were actually two vast suns!

One vast sun rolling forward, like an anomaly of heaven and earth!

"What is... this?!"

Mumbles escaped from the lips of a peak Martial Saint from Dao City.

The next moment, his entire body’s Qi-Blood surged, wanting to rush out, trying to ascend the sky to chase this great sun, to glimpse its true form!

However...

It was simply impossible!

He couldn’t even, under that terrifying, oppressive aura descending from the sky, take flight!

"Who is this?"

"Who indeed!"

Not only this Martial Saint, many powerful figures who sensed the anomaly and pursued it, all had eyes blazing red!

"That direction... seems to be the Divine Capital!"

"This sun is heading to the Divine Capital?!"

...

...

Divine Capital.

Second City.

Octagonal Double-eave Water Tower!

Fang Shangzhen and Yue Taofu, two Deputy Inspectors of the Qintian Observatory, stood at the railing on the ninth floor.

On the roof, the black tiles trembled, and the jewel guarded by the carved flying dragons of the octagon was erupting with extremely brilliant light...

Fang Shangzhen’s loose robe fluttered as she squinted her eyes, staring at the jewel on the rooftop, her delicate body slightly trembling.

Yue Taofu was even more horrified to the extreme.

"It feels like a great threat is approaching!"

The two exchanged a glance and swiftly headed toward the nine-floor hall.

Inside the hall, it was vast and boundless.

The Great Supervising Minister sat on the back of the Mystic Turtle, his entire being shrouded in an enveloping mist of power...

The last time he acted on behalf of Li Che, wielding the power of heaven and earth to battle against a deity, the Great Supervising Minister also bore many burdens, as if he had suffered the counterforce of heaven and earth’s will...

However, for the Great Supervising Minister, this counterforce had little impact, and it was nearly sorted out by now.

Suddenly,

The Great Supervising Minister slowly opened his eyes, his gaze deep and complex.

"Finally... it has come."

The Mystic Turtle, as if in tune with the Great Supervising Minister’s heart, began to move.

Bearing the Great Supervising Minister, it headed out of the Treasure Tower.

Fang Shangzhen and Yue Taofu immediately cupped their hands upon seeing this.

"Great Supervising Minister..."

Yue Taofu opened his mouth, wanting to report on the abnormality of the Dragon Ball.

However, the Great Supervising Minister waved his hand...

"That which must come, will eventually come..."

"Let’s go, to welcome the current... strongest individual in the human world."

...

...

Divine Capital, First City.

Imperial Mausoleum!

The Emperor of Dajing sat cross-legged in the Imperial Mausoleum.

At this moment, the divinity on his face began to twist, as if dispersing.

His hair was disheveled, the once black strands turning pale, as if becoming withered and old...

In the Mysterious Temple of the Third Prince, he borrowed the national fortune of Dajing to act, and after Li Che shattered that fortune, the counterattack he suffered was even more severe.

"Cough cough cough..."

The Emperor of Dajing’s breath was weak, as if on the brink of death.

In the current Imperial Mausoleum.

Not only was the emperor present, but there were also two other figures.

One was the Eldest Prince, Lu Yousheng, and the other was the Fourth Prince, Lu Chi.

Lu Yousheng appeared aged, his eyes devoid of light; his hands hung at his waist, where a treasure sword was hung. He gently stroked the sword with his fingers.

Entering the Imperial Mausoleum held little interest for him because Lu Yousheng knew well that he had little chance of ascending to the throne of crown prince.

Lu Chi, on the other hand, appeared somewhat conflicted, as the matters that occurred in the Golden Light Prefecture City had also been spread to the Divine Capital.

Xi Xi...

Entered the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, while Uncle Li... broke off the path of the Martial Immortal, transforming into a deity, forever unable to step upon the human world again...

Lu Chi felt very distressed in his heart.

Suddenly,

The emperor seated in the Imperial Mausoleum abruptly opened his eyes, beneath the divine mist of his eyes, his gaze instantly filled with blood threads.

He rose abruptly.

The Xuanhuang robe on his body fluttered as he took steps out of the mausoleum to stand on the peak of the mountain.

He raised his head high.

In disbelief, he watched the sky as the mighty and overwhelming clouds shattered, breaking into countless pieces.

A blazing sun slowly descended from amidst the clouds.

The brilliance of the blazing sun gradually dissipated.

Revealing a Golden Crow formed by blazing golden flames, the Golden Crow entwined with order chains, tugging along a golden chariot.

And on that chariot sat a figure whose face was also enveloped in divinity.

"Li Che!"

The Emperor of Dajing gnashed his teeth.

Suddenly,

The figure in the golden chariot.

Slowly lowered its gaze.

"In the presence of this god."

"Why have you not knelt?"

The dignified words resounded from the chariot, like the tolling of a divine bell!

The terrifying pressure...

Swelled and expanded with tenfold magnitude!

Instantly like a ten-thousand-foot waterfall, it crashed down fiercely upon the emperor.

The divine mist veiling the emperor’s face instantly burst apart, unable to maintain, revealing a pale and furious visage.

"Ah—!!!"

The emperor roared!

However, faced directly with the pressure, he could not withstand it, his knees instantly lost all strength, directly with a loud "thud"...

Violently kneeling to the ground.
