Previously on As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality...
As the sun slanted westward, it blazed crimson like flames devouring parched peaks, sparking colossal blazes that drenched sky and land in scarlet.
Atop the city tower of Qitian Inner City.
The age-old tower, laid with bricks and stones, showed clear signs of erosion, brimming with timeless presence.
Stooped Old Monkey in simple cloth robes sat cross-legged upon the tower, akin to a sage elder. Golden gleams shone in his eyes, fixing on Li Che as though peering into his present condition.
Truth be told, from Qitian Outer City below, myriad gazes locked onto the Inner City tower.
The death-revived ancient god perched regally on high, resembling a eternal stele inscribed by the flow of time.
Cultivation realms of those assembled were lofty; only peak human world experts braved Qitian City.
Martial Saints, Divine Fetuses, and even top-level peak and Great God strong ones.
Such experts held sharp perception, privy to hidden truths, grasping deity might and the world-shaking import of a Temple God’s revival.
"The resurgence of a deity signifies the coming divine tide; each divine tide is a tribulation. With cycles waxing and waning over three thousand years, the era of gods in wild dance is about to dawn."An elderly cultivator sighed softly.
However, the tower-top exchange between Old Monkey and Earthly Ghost Emperor stunned most, thanks to Old Monkey’s gift to Earthly Ghost Emperor.
It resembled a parting legacy, handing over the Three Pure Ones Rank Divine Weapon, the Hun Yuan Ruyi Golden Cudgel, straight to Earthly Ghost Emperor.
Many felt hearts quake, reckless notions budding inside.
Was this Qitian deity’s time nearing its end?
Or did some colossal event loom ahead?
Speculation swirled that Great Sage Equalling Heaven readied entry into Earth Deceit Que, as all knew Qitian Inner City’s prime spot bridging Inner Mysterious Que and Earth Deceit Que.
Legends claimed Earth Deceit Que hid greater fortunes, poised to hoist revived souls higher.
Thus crowds figured Great Sage Equalling Heaven plotted a post-revival plunge into Earth Deceit Que, chasing fortune for rapid divine might recovery.
More jaw-dropping proved Qitian Temple God’s lavish move.
He bestowed the Three Pure Ones Rank Divine Weapon, Hun Yuan Ruyi Golden Cudgel, upon Earthly Ghost Emperor, even offering aid to draw Heaven and Earth Essence Qi for assaulting Martial Immortal Realm!
"Martial Immortal! Pure Martial Immortal, rarely seen worldwide!"
"This Earthly Ghost Emperor could cultivate the martial path to such a realm. It is said Pure Martial Immortals are unparalleled in combat; if a Martial Immortal proves the Dao, terribly terrifying."
"However, regardless of the present era or the era when divinity hid, Martial Immortals are extremely rare. The Pure Martial Path...to break into the Martial Immortal demands not only formidable talent but also overwhelmingly ample resources."
... .
In Qitian Outer City, powerhouses clustered, locked in ceaseless chatter.
"But witnessing the birth of a Martial Immortal is truly a stroke of fortune for us all."
Someone exclaimed in astonishment.
"Martial Immortal’s breakthrough cannot be concealed; it will captivate the world, for achieving Martial Immortal outshines breaking through Divine Tribulation or Martial God. It’s navigating the incredibly difficult Pure Martial Path, reaching the ultimate figures, even triggering formidable disasters from the heavens and earth!"
"Perhaps we truly have a chance to see such a Martial Immortal breakthrough great era that hadn’t occurred for thousands of years!"
Voices echoed without end, brimming with thrill and expectancy.
"Yet, it is incredibly challenging to truly break through to become a Martial Immortal. In the end, today’s era is rife with divine resurgence, divine influences pervasive, making pure martial proving the Dao even harder."
Others voiced doubts and grim outlooks.
Still, tidings of Earthly Ghost Emperor’s Martial Immortal Realm bid exploded like tempest, resounding in every ear.
Plus, certain gazes honed on peculiar details.
"The Earthly Ghost Emperor, astonishing that he is not even a Martial Immortal? Is the Underworld the power supported by Prison Lotus in the human world? Are there other deities within the Underworld?"
Someone burned with curiosity.
What bounds the Underworld’s full strength?
Atop the tower.
The sunset burned like fire.
"Well then...thank you, senior."
Li Che smiled and clasped his fists. Indeed, he yearned to strike at Martial Immortal Realm, forging flawless merge of Martial Immortal Dao Essence into his fleshly body.
But Qitian’s utterance exposed Li Che’s key shortfall.
Heaven and Earth Essence Qi...
The vital force for Martial Immortal breakthrough?
For Martial Immortal stands apart from Martial God; Martial God draws from divinity, whereas Martial Immortal, maxed in personal Qi-blood and flesh, craves outward catalyst too.
Martial God leans on divinity, Martial Immortal hungers for Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.
"I, Old Sun, can aid you in siphoning Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, but...only near Qitian City. Should you wish for a breakthrough, it must be within this range."
Old Monkey spoke softly.
Li Che raised scant protest, untroubled.
After all, the Martial Immortal tribulation he targeted was horrifically dire, peril eclipsing Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations.
Even routine Divine Tribulation cultivators shunned nearing such ordeals, dreading corruption.
Thus facing Martial Immortal Pass beyond Qitian City raised no qualms.
"Senior, this Hun Yuan Ruyi Golden Cudgel...should remain with senior."
Li Che declined Old Monkey’s gift.
Indeed, a Three Pure Ones Rank Divine Weapon possesses immeasurable power.
