As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1713: Temple God Resonance of the Qi Tian Mysterious Temple, How to Satiate the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit

Fang Hanshu continued.

"The reason the Demon Race attacked Qi Tian City stems from their unyielding desire to seize this inheritance. Above all, the Demon Race possesses a clear upper hand..."

Upon hearing those words, Li Che narrowed his gaze: "Qi Tian Temple houses a Demon Saint... Thus, the Demon Race thinks their edge is overwhelming?"

"Indeed." Fang Hanshu affirmed with a nod.

"Beyond that, forces like the Western Regions Buddha Land and Little Lingyin Temple also brim with utmost assurance regarding this Temple God Resonance. The name in Fighting Prison Lotus Demon Saint Qi Tian hints at Buddhism, leading the Western Regions Buddha Land to claim Qi Tian as one of their Buddhist Temple Gods..."

As a learned God Hunter Killer from the Hunting God Pavilion, Fang Hanshu was privy to countless hidden truths.

Li Che pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement.

"Therefore, the world's mighty figures converge here for three key reasons. First comes the Qi Tian Inheritance from the Mysterious Temple, second the treasures of the ancient Divine Sect Qi Tian Temple, and third... the mystery tied to the Inner Mysterious Que - Earth Deceit Que nexus in Qi Tian City..."

Fang Hanshu laid out the core connections of Qi Tian City for Li Che.

"So, it's the Temple God Resonance?" Li Che narrowed his eyes once more.

No surprise that so many crave to grasp the Heart-following Gold Iron Divine Rod; it immensely boosts the Temple God Resonance.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh——

All at once, the Flying Sword came to a stop, ceasing its swift flight.

Li Che sharpened his focus, and glancing downward, he beheld a sprawling expanse of lands and rivers dominated by a colossal, expansive city!

This city rose imposingly high, spanning across sky and soil, awe-inspiring in its majesty, much like a colossal Divine Dragon curling upon the earth.

Its scale was immense, its presence unrivaled, especially saturated with an archaic essence, while its walls stretched endlessly left and right, covering endless miles without any apparent boundary.

"Qi Tian City... we've reached it."

Excitement gleamed in Li Che's eyes.

Faintly, it seemed as if myriad lethal electric flashes wove together without end!

Within his chest, the Dao Fruit of the Chess Saint pulsed relentlessly!

Thud thud thud——!

The winds fell still, every noise between heaven and earth turning serene and hushed in his perception.

The Heaven and Earth chessboard spun and grew, abruptly seeking to blanket the entire imposing Qi Tian City.

From this chessboard, fearsome and boundless energies surged upward without cease.

However, his Heaven and Earth chessboard only stretched across half the city before it stalled.

One must realize, his present Heaven and Earth chessboard spanned almost eight hundred miles.

Encompassing all of Qi Tian City ought to pose no challenge.

Yet Qi Tian City appeared to wield a force that warped the fabric of reality, as though it didn't fully reside in this realm, preventing the Heaven and Earth chessboard from completely enclosing it.

As the Flying Sword lingered in the air.

Lv Taibai positioned himself at the vanguard of the Sword Qi surge, with Sword Qi erupting heavenward from his form; he advanced a single step, promptly departing the Flying Sword, his Sword Qi piercing the clouds as he strode onward!

"Get lost——!!!"

A deafening bellow erupted.

A silhouette abruptly materialized on the ramparts of Qi Tian City, an overwhelming and radiant energy blasting skyward, akin to a heavenly blade poised to cleave all in its path!

It manifested as a massive White Crane.

Wings unfurled, its black-and-white plumage shifted into flowing feather robes that draped its frame, transforming into a slender middle-aged figure, equally radiating piercing Sword Intent.

Lv Taibai's brow furrowed; his five fingers extended like arrows, morphing in an instant into five sacred blades that clashed head-on with the Crane Demon.

Sword Qi churned like ocean swells, distorting the void with rippling distortions.

The Divine Tribulation essence erupted wildly, resembling surging tides and crashing waves high above, as if summoning a catastrophe that quaked without pause.

"This Demon God rivals the Martial God Realm in might, with a body of extraordinary toughness—truly remarkable."

Following their initial clash, Lv Taibai, who had ascended to the Divine Tribulation Realm through enduring the Destructive God Wind among the Three Disasters, found himself unable to overpower this Crane Demon.

"A fresh entrant to the Divine Tribulation, eh? No wonder—the young bull fears not the tiger..."

From the heights of Qi Tian City's tower, the Crane Demon narrowed its gaze, locks whipping in the wind, its form honed sharp as a blade, fixing a mocking stare on Lv Taibai.

Next, its eyes scanned the handful of silhouettes aboard the Flying Sword.

Spotting Lv Qiankun caused the Crane Demon's pupils to contract, yet upon noticing Fang Hanshu, Li Che, Xi Xi, and the rest.

The scorn twisting the Crane Demon's features deepened further.

"What do you take Qi Tian City for? Dragging your kin into the fray..."

"Qi Tian City stands wholly under our Demon Race's control—go back to wherever you crawled from!"

"Otherwise, you'll all end up as our feast of blood!"

"Begone!"

The Crane Demon roared, and in a flash, innumerable Sword gleams shot upward, sharpening into feather-like barbs of the crane.

A deluge of slaughterous intent cascaded forth, its gaze bloodshot, brimming with hunger for fresh carnage.

Lv Taibai's forehead creased; Sword Qi enveloped his being as he pondered probing Qi Tian City's defenses—it appeared the city's depths far exceeded his expectations.

Now thoroughly claimed by the Demon Race, just as rumors suggested, the Human Race would need to unite and assault to breach Qi Tian City.

Failing that, should the Temple God Resonance commence, they risked forfeiting their right and opportunity to access the city for the event.

Qi Tian City boasted four entrances: east, west, south, and north.

At each portal stood a Demon God on guard, blocking Dajing Country and the Human Race from penetrating Qi Tian City.

Only through a direct assault to shatter the gates could entry be gained.

Absent that, one awaited the Demon Race's permission to gain access into the city.

"These Demons hail from the Ten Thousand Rivers—not the Inner Mysterious Que All Gods Camp [Deceit Demon Cave]'s version, but the Ten Thousand Rivers of the current era, lying beyond Dajing's borders near Wushen Mountain, a realm ruled by the Demon Race where most Demons arose from the Mysterious Temple's corrupted Divinity."
