As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1669: The Ghost Emperor Killing the Poison Saint with His Back to All, Submit to Me and I’ll Show You the Eternal Divine Tide
Previously on As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality...
From the very beginning until the end, Li Che refrained from taking any action—not because he was feigning the air of an expert who acts only sparingly, but simply because he lacked the boldness to intervene.
The Poison Saint... Li Che harbored a profound wariness still.
Even after swallowing the Detoxification Pill refined by Gu Changqing, it served only as a counter to the Nine Revolutions Rising Dragon Pill.
Against the Poison Saint's deadly fog, Li Che held no assurance of its potency.
Gu Yinxuan wielded tremendous might; especially his savagely lethal Five Poison Divine Mist, which struck terror into hearts.
Regrettably, the adversaries Li Che had pitted against him consisted purely of lifeless constructs.
These foes stood utterly immune to the barrage of deadly venom.
Across all of Mo City Fengdu, Li Che alone breathed as the only living soul.
And Li Che...
Shunned any direct clash with the poisons, thus dodging the peril of contamination.
Observing Gu Yinxuan's ruthless and sinister demeanor, Li Che felt all the more assured that eliminating him had been the wise path.
A fiend like that, if lured by Gu Yangxuan to pursue his daughter...
It would unleash pure catastrophe.
Facing such venomous strategies, Li Che saw no path to victory through standard methods, save for unleashing Soul Capturing, Ten Vicious Ink Splashes, and kindred inanimate forces in a fierce onslaught.
Thus, Gu Yinxuan needed decisive handling; at worst, conversion into a loyal subordinate.
Only that way could Li Che find true peace of mind.
Detecting how Gu Yinxuan's Five Poison Divine Mist had fused with the souls of the Five Temple Gods, Li Che pondered the art of Summoning Gods.
Any Temple God...
Could be called forth!
As foreseen, Li Che drew out the temple god's soul, stripping Gu Yinxuan's Five Poison Divine Mist of its divine anchor and dooming it to collapse.
The spirits of the Five Temple Gods drifted aimlessly in Mo City Fengdu.
Wailing without cease, they swirled about Li Che's frame, wreathed in blazing Purple Fire, lending him an ever more horrifying aura.
Within Fengdu, silence slowly enveloped the scene.
He landed lightly on tiptoe.
Li Che's form blurred in a flash, positioning him right by Gu Yinxuan's fallen remains.
Even as the Sea Flipping Nine Infants had wholly engulfed the poisonous haze, subtle poison residues clung to the breeze. Li Che's Tao Tribulation Fire roared and writhed around his person, searing any lingering toxins nearby with sharp hisses.
Gu Yinxuan embodied ruthless cruelty.
He slew foes without a second thought, and even in his Heavenly Pill Divine Sect, he dosed his own followers freely, scheming to taint every soul in Guangling Dao City.
He spread venom without regard for the lives he imperiled.
A foe of that caliber, if he set his malice on Xi Xi, would torment Li Che endlessly, robbing him of sleep and appetite.
Fortune smiled...
At last, he lay slain.
Better yet, this prodigy of poisons would now bend to his will!
A venomous genius like that, allied with you, delivers a matchless shield of protection.
Zhao Beidou and Gu Yangxuan waited in deferential stance at Li Che's side.
The towering Sea Flipping Nine Infants and Divine Machine Demon Ape, immense as peaks, loomed beside Li Che too, radiating sheer dread.
His black robe whipped in the gusts, Purple Fire flickering wildly.
Li Che fixed his gaze on Gu Yinxuan's mangled body...
Beneath the Golden Skull, his eyes gleamed with eerie luminescence.
Qi Tian City stirred to life, the Equal Heaven Temple's inheritance poised to emerge...
Qi Tian City, summoning champions from every realm...
Promised boundless hazards.
Li Che's existence mirrored a tightrope over abyssal ice, braced against the throng of titans.
Gathering a band of unwavering allies seemed perfectly reasonable, did it not?!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh—
Inky rain cascaded in furious torrents, slamming into the earth with explosive fury.
Li Che positioned himself before Gu Yinxuan's corpse.
"You don't want to miss the Ten Thousand Years Divine Tide?"
"Then submit to me..."
"And I'll take you to see the Eternal Divine Tide."
"Soul Capturing—"
