As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1845: Xi Xi’s New Dao Fruit at Age 8—Space-Time Golden Wheel, Breaking the Killing Taboo Among Mortal Martial Immortals

Pristine snowflakes, flawless and fragile, settled into Li Che’s palm, held aloft by an unseen force, hovering motionless in mid-air.

Carried by a soft gust, they spun endlessly, emitting a luminous and crystal-clear radiance.

Snow fell in thick sheets, blanketing the dark roof tiles and turning them purely white, accumulating in fluffy mounds. The gentle patter of snow resounded softly, fully easing the mind and relaxing the body.

"Huff—"

Li Che breathed out slowly, his eyes gleaming faintly, as though his fatigued soul had found comfort.

"My daughter Xi Xi is eight years old."

Eight years old!

This winter snowfall marks Xi Xi turning yet another year older.

The little girl from before has grown quite a bit now, but as Xi Xi matures further, she increasingly resembles Da Xixi.

Li Che sat amid the snow, allowing snowflakes to swirl and settle naturally, a contemplative expression forming on his face.

Without him as her father in this world, Xi Xi’s destiny might dreadfully mirror Da Xixi, the Daughter of Prison Lotus’s path, battling through corpse-strewn mountains and blood-soaked seas, annihilating gods and Buddhas alike...

Her personality would probably transform dramatically from its present form.

Even Equaling Heaven, upon encountering Xi Xi, felt compelled to shield her; likely, compared to that, Equaling Heaven sees the current Xi Xi as far happier and better off.

The fate of the Prison Lotus...

Li Che’s mighty Martial Immortal Will erupted suddenly, and within the Inner Scene of the Energy Center at his brow, boundless Divine Light seemed to manifest, like a Dao Tree casting its glow, extending infinite branches behind him that swayed across the Heavenly Dome.

Fate... Could the connection between him and his daughter get caught in this fate as well?

As her father, he must shelter his daughter like a mighty tree; that’s a father’s duty, no matter what fate decrees. This defines a father’s purpose.

Thus, Li Che must handle a chain of threats for Xi Xi, letting her develop gradually and peacefully beneath his protective canopy.

Be it the earlier Spirit Infant Sect, the subsequent Corpse God Cult, or Ji Moli... or even the All Gods Camp they’ll soon confront...

No matter the foes’ growing might, Li Che harbors no trace of fear.

His daughter is his to cherish, his to safeguard!

Li Che’s gaze turned profoundly deep.

"Huff—"

"Inhale—"

With every breath, the energy around his body surged wildly, Martial Immortal Will flooding out like a raging flood, churning and boiling as it rushed outward, instantly vaporizing the snow blanket into mist.

Myriad heat waves surged fiercely, his eyes blazing with immeasurably profound light.

Here it comes.

Despite harvesting many Dao Fruits, Li Che’s heart couldn’t stay serene; he craved the new Dao Fruits like parched grass longing for dawn’s first rays after endless night.

Right now, Li Che confronts heavy pressures; Strange Que’s All Gods Camp teems with myriad powerhouses, forged and honed across ages.

Forget the gods like Equaling Heaven revived from the All Gods Camp— even the Divine Tribulation Cultivators at the Supreme Realm exert significant strain on present-day Li Che.

Thankfully, Heaven and Earth Will bars the path between realms, barring any Supreme from descending into the mortal plane from Strange Que.

This grants Li Che substantial pressure relief.

So, Li Che’s hunger for strength persists; he yearns to grow mightier, for only power ensures a father’s vow to defend his daughter.

DONG——!!!

A primordial, echoing toll boomed forth.

It resembled a ten-thousand-zhang snow peak, shrouded in white, where an ancient bell etched with ages swung wildly under a Celestial God’s thunderous roar!

Sound waves billowed outward, rippling everywhere, even emanating ceaselessly from Li Che’s form.

DONG DONG——

DONG DONG DONG——

Thunderous clamor, like a Heavenly God pounding war drums!

In his chest, each Dao Fruit pulsed vibrantly, rejoicing, as if heralding the birth of yet another Dao Fruit.

RUMBLE RUMBLE——

At this instant, the Martial Immortal Will ascended without end, like climbing three thousand feet into the heavens, surveying cloud seas and tidal surges!

His brow warped, akin to twisting space-time, birthing a enigmatic vortex that unleashed terrifying pulls, wholly absorbing his consciousness into infinite emptiness.

Familiar...

Vast Heaven and Earth!

...

... .

RUMBLE RUMBLE——

The boundless and primordial heaven and earth lack any all-encompassing Divinity, pristine to the core yet brimming with perils.

The gales sweeping across heaven and earth carry the catastrophic Destructive God Wind, fierce enough to shatter the soul and spirit!

His pitch-black robe billowed wildly, lustrous dark hair thrashing in the chaos, as Li Che hovered suspended in mid-air, surveying the expansive world below, where the familiar Dao Tree erupted from the soil, soaring endlessly into the skies without visible peak.

Previously, the Dao Tree had transformed dramatically, but this time around, it looked entirely commonplace.

It's easy to see why—last year, Xi Xi's leap from six to seven heralded a major growth phase, smoothly wrapping up her toddler years and entering school age.

To Li Che, this milestone in his daughter's journey was equally monumental.

Now, moving from seven to eight brings no such dramatic shift, as expected.

Shrouded in profound mystery, the Dao Tree's every leaf bears countless arcane ancient motifs, sprawling and interlacing across its surface, fusing Dao and Principle.

Each Dao Fruit on the Dao Tree sparkled like a radiant gem, nurtured and hanging from its boughs, pulsing with vibrant spirituality, gently rocking with a faint ding dong.
