As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1748: I Heard Your Voice in the Underworld—A Day of Demon God Slaughter, Qitian Recovery

"Arriving just in time beats showing up too soon, and they've got late-night bites too..." Li Che let out a light laugh.
Gazing at the beautifully arranged, crystal-clear dumplings, Li Che dove right in to eat without a second thought.
He savored this tasty midnight treat alongside Xi Xi.
The shopkeeper settled into his seat, prepared a pair of smokes, and handed one over to Li Che.
Li Che tapped his chopsticks, abandoned the thought of vying with his treasured girl for that final dumpling, set aside the utensils, accepted the cigarette, and ignited it using the Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame.
After that, he shared puffs of smoke with the shopkeeper.
"Qi Tian City will open shortly."
The shopkeeper remarked in a flat tone.
Li Che gave a nod, showing little astonishment.
"Tomorrow."
The shopkeeper went on.
On this occasion, Li Che’s gaze flickered a bit as he turned his eyes: "Tomorrow?"
Regret stirred faintly in Li Che’s mind.
His effort to gather the Twelve Demon Gods had reached only halfway...
Four Three Tribulations Demon Gods and three First Tribulations Demon Gods remained unrecruited.
Yet, Li Che wasn’t overly concerned.
Shifts in strategies happen routinely; existence is rarely flawless.
"Tomorrow, eh... It’s coming fast."
"Time doesn’t halt for anyone."
Li Che blew out a stream of smoke.
The shopkeeper shot Li Che a sideways look, seemingly implying, is that something a person would say?
Uttering time doesn’t halt for anyone, when with extra days, you’d likely seize control of Qi Tian City!
Li Che rose to his feet, shook off some ash from the cigarette: "Boss, I’m leaving Xi Xi in your care."
The activation of Qi Tian City’s legacy signaled impending true turmoil, as concealed fiends and phantoms started to surface.
Xi Xi would surely remain under the shopkeeper’s watch.
The shopkeeper shook off ash and murmured softly: "Relax, I won’t let Gouzi starve, or her either."
Li Che burst into a hearty chuckle, then extended his fingers broadly and ripped through Qianyuan Space, gesturing toward the shopkeeper.
"Want these supplies?"
Within lay the actual forms of slain Demon Gods, now transformed.
The shopkeeper’s eyes gleamed subtly, like an expert cook eyeing prime materials.
"Definitely."
Without delay, the shopkeeper claimed every one of these provisions.
After parting from the shopkeeper and Xi Xi, Li Che headed back to the yard housing the Bull Demon.
The night hung heavy like spilled ink, with dark clouds tumbling over the Heavenly Dome, an intense pressure relentlessly descending upon the mortal realm.
As though it aimed to choke the breath from everyone.
The leftover Demon Gods hadn’t been enlisted promptly, yet Li Che remained unperturbed and didn’t rush about.
Li Che positioned himself in a cross-legged stance, letting his consciousness sink into the Tao Tribulation Space.
He commenced the refinement of Tao Tribulation Power.
Boom——!!!
His consciousness trembled, yanked abruptly from the Tao Tribulation Space.
Li Che’s eyes blazed with light.
His five fingers fanned out, and an azure blue droplet of water spun, shifting forms in his hand.
"It worked!"
Primordial Water Tribulation, Heart-purifying Stream, now under control!
[Dao Tribulation: Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame (4%), Primordial Sky Slash (2%), Primordial Heart Cleansing Stream (1%)]
A grin slowly formed on Li Che’s lips.
Rumble—
Overhead on the Heavenly Dome, lightning bolts slithered while fierce gales roared!
Myriad savage flows intertwined and expanded like a net!
Li Che cradled a droplet of Primordial Water Tribulation.
In that instant, the whole of Qi Tian City trembled violently!
Li Che scanned the area surrounding his little yard.
The thick Mysterious Fog...
Rose slowly from the earth...
In a flash.
Blanketing the skies and lands!
Roar——
And from the Inner City section of Qi Tian City...
A furious bellow erupted!
Clatter, clatter, clatter...
The noise of innumerable chains scraping along echoed.
Li Che raised his sight, faintly perceiving in Qi Tian City’s Inner City a human-like form, shackled and entwined by chains, writhing endlessly!
The Qitian Temple God...
Stirred to life!
