As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1861: The Fall of the Ghost Emperor—Burned Out for Real, Soul Capturing Erupts After the Night of Slaughter

"Yes... I'm about to burn out."

"Do you dare to come out and fight!"

Li Che's voice carried a lone, heroic tragedy as he called out.

From the mysterious fog within Qitian Inner City, the colossal Sky Wolf Supreme emerged, its mountain-sized wolf head slowly materializing from the swirling mist.

The Sky Wolf's enormous vertical pupils locked onto the Ghost Emperor.

After a prolonged moment, the four brilliant golden vortices began to dim, their radiance fading like a dying lamp contrasted against the sun.

The Sky Wolf Supreme narrowed its eyes and, with a swift motion of its five fingers, the Xuan Ying Demon God Venerable, who had fled into the Inner City, was forcefully expelled.

"Kill!"

"Slaughter the Mortal Martial Immortal, your deeds bring great merit! When Strange Que eventually devours the human world, you shall receive divine blessings!"

The Sky Wolf Supreme's voice boomed, its sound waves trembling like thunder.

Stepping out from the Inner City, the Xuan Ying Demon God Venerable fixed his gaze upon the Earthly Ghost Emperor, who sat desolately on the Inner City's battlements a hundred feet away.

Noticing his opponent's depleted qi and blood, a distorted grin spread across the Xuan Ying Demon God Venerable's face.

"You've exhausted your qi and blood, yet you still wish to fight? Do you truly believe you are still qualified?!"

The Xuan Ying Demon God Venerable let out a piercing howl, his wings slicing through the air, shedding golden feathers. Unsealing his divine aura, he transformed instantly into a terrifying eagle, soaring through the heavens!

Like a divine sword stroke, he swiftly descended upon the Earthly Ghost Emperor!

Even facing a Mortal Martial Immortal whose power was nearly depleted, the Xuan Ying Demon God Venerable dared not hold back!

He unleashed his full might!

Kill!

As the Xuan Ying Demon God Venerable closed in on the Earthly Ghost Emperor.

The four golden light wheels, which had previously dimmed, suddenly reignited with an incredibly bright and dazzling radiance, as if validating their return.

The Three-point double-edged knife hummed and vibrated, erupting from the void!

A sharp glint flashed in Li Che's eyes as the Shengtian Half Son Dao Domain, spanning eight hundred feet, converged and expanded.

The Xuan Ying Demon God Venerable instantly perceived the danger; an overwhelming sense of crisis caused the feathers on his eagle form to stand on end!

In the next instant, he felt his power rapidly diminishing!

It was as if an immense force was dragging him down, causing his strength to plummet through the levels of the Second Calamity and First Tribulation, continuing its descent towards the First Calamity Divine Tribulation Realm!

This...

Yet, he had no time to spare. His golden feathers quivered, but they were suppressed by the revitalized divine aura emanating from the Three-point double-edged knife!

Boom—!!!

The Earthly Ghost Emperor stood tall, burning with renewed power. His robust body seemed to stretch ten thousand feet high, golden qi and blood surged, his five fingers clenched, unleashing the Myriad Transformations Dragon Elephant technique!

The Xuan Ying Demon God Venerable roared in fury, his eagle's cry echoing through the Nine Heavens. Cracks appeared on his Disaster Wheel as his aura surged, struggling to break free from the Shengtian Half Son Dao Domain's pull!

However, the terrifying fist of the Unparalleled Martial Immortal had already found its mark.

An indestructible force, overwhelming like mountains and seas, with qi and blood surging like relentless tides, unleashed obliterative power, fiercely striking the Xuan Ying Demon God Venerable's body.

Even his formidable demon body proved insufficient against Li Che, who had detonated four Qimen Immortal Seeds!

He was shattered inch by inch, ultimately exploding into a mist of blood!

Countless black eagle feathers scattered, engulfed by golden flames, igniting into a brilliant fire.

The golden feathers trembled, clanging as they attempted to escape the suppression of the Three-point double-edged knife and darted towards the Inner City.

Yet, Li Che's swift reflexes didn't fail him; he instantly captured the golden feathers, storing them within the Heaven and Earth chessboard, suppressed by the Seven-orifice Exquisite Heart!

The Xuan Ying Demon God Venerable shrieked in agony, his demon soul raging like a turbulent tide!

Nevertheless, Li Che's Martial Immortal will acted like a blade, slicing through the void and brutally severing the Xuan Ying Demon God Venerable's demon soul!

Following that, the scattered blood and severed demon soul were collected into Mo City's Fengdu.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

After these events, the four Qimen Immortal Seeds that had erupted behind Li Che calmed down once more, their brilliant light fading like dying embers.

Stumbling from the fractured, mirror-like space, he fell to the ground.

Turning his back on the multitude of martial artists and cultivators observing from the periphery of Qitian Outer City, he faced the supreme beings of the Deceitful Gods Camp situated within Qitian Inner City’s Strange Que.

A profound sigh escaped him.

"Burned out... I am truly exhausted this time..."

An eerie silence descended.

The winds and waves churned violently, and the fractured void echoed with clangorous metallic sounds.

Within Qitian Inner City, an enigmatic fog descended like a shroud, weaving and intermingling ceaselessly. The wolf head of the Sky Wolf Supreme emerged from this curtain, its vertically slit pupils fixing upon the Earthly Ghost Emperor, who sat desolately upon the ground.

The cultivators from the All Gods Camp, concealed within the Inner City, also lapsed into silence.

Most notably, the Divine General Venerable, who had been locked in combat with Fang Hanshu to impede his advance, stood with his spear tip vibrating uncontrollably.

Burned out?

Only the Ghost Emperor himself comprehended the true nature of his predicament!

The Divine General Venerable’s face contorted, as if glancing towards the Supreme of the Dark Heavenly Court Camp.

In an instant, absolute silence enveloped both the interior and exterior of the city.

Beyond the city walls, numerous audacious martial artists, still captivated by the unfolding battle, had not yet retreated. They remained stunned by the Earthly Ghost Emperor’s final exertion, which had ruthlessly extinguished a Three Tribulations Venerable.

"Burned out... is he truly depleted?"

A wave of bewilderment washed over many martial artists.

For a moment, they found themselves uncertain if the Earthly Ghost Emperor had indeed exhausted himself completely, reaching life's end and transforming into a fleeting Martial Immortal.

"But eventually, he will succumb..."

Some martial artists experienced a flicker of excitement, only to follow it with a sigh.

This was because the undeniable truth was that the Martial Immortal Ghost Emperor had depleted his qi and blood. The immense power gained from battling foes beyond his level invariably came with a steep price...

No one could ascertain how much longer the Ghost Emperor could maintain his stance.

However, at the very least, the Ghost Emperor held his position at the gates of Qitian Inner City, single-handedly containing and deterring the forces of the Deceitful Gods Camp.

Today, the potential massacre that should have unfolded within Qitian City had been averted, all thanks to the sacrifice of the Earthly Ghost Emperor.
