The Ghost Emperor, revealed to be Li Che, leaves Qitian Outer City, giving his followers a legend of their own "Mortal Martial Immortal." He leaves behind a deadly sword array to deter any pursuit from Qitian Inner City. Meanwhile, the Supremes of Qitian Inner City, Jialou and Xuanzhen, are wary after a previous death and decide not to pursue Li Che, realizing his trap. Li Che returns to Golden Light Peak, his immense aura briefly terrifying Nan Lihuo.

Thus, when Li Che finally stood, a trace of astonishment flickered across his face.

"Elder Li... precisely where are you off to?"

Without even turning his head, Li Che exited Golden Light Peak, merely offering a dismissive wave.

"Taking Xi Xi to partake in the loaches we've caught."

Nan Lihuo couldn't grasp the meaning, but he was certain Li Che was poised to ignite a significant upheaval.

He let out a heavy sigh and advanced toward the doors of the Divine Palace, yet Li Che's retreating form was already long gone, vanishing from sight.

Golden Light Prefecture, situated adjacent to the Third Prince’s Mysterious Temple, had Nan Lihuo long anticipating such a formidable disaster.

However, the ensuing shockwaves proved far more tumultuous than his predictions.

Xi Xi had single-handedly ravaged Golden Light Prefecture City—how many cultivators undergoing Divine Tribulation had met their end, how many Martial Saint Divine Embryos had crumbled to dust, how much crimson blood had stained the very flagstones?

And prior to this event, within Golden Light Prefecture itself, Divine Primordial experts were already considered the pinnacle of power...

In the current circumstances, Nan Lihuo found himself incapable of even forming a judgment; the situation had irrevocably surpassed the scope of his Divine Element True Person cultivation realm's capacity to discern or comprehend.

Such a colossal conflict was far beyond his ability to intervene; he couldn't even begin to fathom its intricacies.

All he could do was offer a heartfelt prayer from the depths of his soul, wishing for the safety and well-being of both Li Che and Xi Xi...

...

...

Meanwhile, Xi Xi was leading Liu Yangyuan and the others on their patrol through the expansive Golden Light Prefecture City.

Thespirited young girl traversed with an air of undeniable arrogance, her formidable Martial Saint Heavenly Person Sensing radiating outwards like a tempest.

Any hint of irregularity would be instantly cataloged within her awareness.

Yet, Xi Xi found herself surprisingly content, observing that wherever she went, the cultivators within Golden Light Prefecture City displayed an almost fanatical adoration towards her. From this observable sentiment, she concluded that she, as the Sect Master of the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, was indeed performing her duties admirably.

Suddenly.

Xi Xi's ears twitched, and her large, expressive eyes blinked a few times.

At the far end of the prolonged boulevard, she spotted Li Che, clad in his signature black robe, appearing with a disarming lightness. He stood there, hands clasped behind his back, a gentle smile gracing his features.

"Daddy!"

A joyous cry erupted from Xi Xi as she immediately bolted forward like a streak of lightning.

She crashed headlong into Li Che's welcoming embrace.

The sheer force of the impact—had it been an ordinary Martial Saint, their spine would likely have been irrevocably fractured.

"Come, Daddy is taking you to retrieve the ring."

Li Che held Xi Xi close, a faint smile playing on his lips.

Xi Xi responded with an emphatic nod.

Subsequently, Li Che's gaze swept over Liu Yangyuan and his companions, and then directed towards Feng Zhiqi, Zhao Fangzhou, and the others who maintained a hidden vigil, to whom he offered a slight inclination of his head.

Feng Zhiqi and Zhao Fangzhou, along with the rest, emerged from the shadows and clasped their fists in respect towards Li Che.

For reasons they couldn't articulate, they perceived Elder Li as being terrifyingly formidable today...

An inexplicable sense of dread enveloped them, suppressing their Qi-Blood to the point where circulation became a struggle.

Li Che gently took Xi Xi's hand; the tall figure and the small one strolled side-by-side along the grand street of Golden Light Prefecture City, making their way towards the outskirts.

Moving at an unhurried, unpressured pace.

Xi Xi's eyes sparkled with excitement, her large eyes fluttering with curiosity.

Father and daughter soon departed Golden Light Prefecture City, setting forth along the public road, dust rising in billows. It was as if the very fabric of space was contorting, the ground beneath their feet continuously shrinking.

Xi Xi watched in sheer amazement as the surrounding scenery blurred past.

She tilted her head to observe Li Che beside her; her Daddy seemed subtly different today compared to before.

Her Daddy... appeared to have adopted a serious demeanor!

Furthermore, Li Che's act of escorting Xi Xi out of Golden Light Prefecture City did not go unnoticed. It was swiftly detected by the vigilant experts dispatched by the various major powers, their informants strategically positioned both inside and outside the city.

"This Li Che... has actually departed Golden Light Prefecture City with his daughter, Li Nuanxi?"

"Judging by this course of action, he must be heading towards Ancestor Dragon Island..."

"Li Che is known to be a craftsman of the Underworld, adept only in mechanisms—and with mere mechanisms, he dares to escort Li Nuanxi to Ancestor Dragon Island to acquire the Qiankun Ring?"

...

Numerous experts expressed their astonishment, their minds clouded with uncertainty.

On the banks of the majestic Nine Dragons River.

The river surged towards the heavens, and opulent carriages, as grand as palatial temples, were meticulously parked.

Within one exceptionally palatial Imperial Family carriage.

Noble Consort Su Da slowly lowered the carriage curtain; a peculiar expression couldn't help but surface in her captivating, foxy eyes.

"Master Li personally escorting Li Nuanxi to Ancestor Dragon Island... just the two of them, father and daughter? How incredibly audacious of them!"

"Are they not summoning any Underworld experts? Or perhaps... Underworld experts are concealed in the shadows?"

"But Ancestor Dragon Island is not the same as Golden Light Prefecture City. Ancestor Dragon Island is a place like a Small Cave Heaven, and it connects to the Strange Que; Second Disaster Venerables can attack without restraint."

Su Da’s eyes narrowed, her pupils darting about.

In the next moment, she ceased her contemplation and commanded them to proceed towards Ancestor Dragon Island.

It wasn't only the carriage carrying Su Da and the Third Prince.

All the major powers were eager to witness the unfolding events; the carriages that had been stationary by the Nine Dragons River began to move, their passage disturbing the chilling autumn rain that fell.

They journeyed in the direction of Ancestor Dragon Island, where an ethereal, mirage-like vision of the sea materialized.

A collective premonition settled upon everyone—no, it was more than mere intuition!

The moment Li Nuanxi set foot on Ancestor Dragon Island, it signified that...

A cataclysm was imminent!

...

...

Ancestor Dragon Island was situated within the Nine Dragons River, several hundred li distant from Golden Light Prefecture City.

Its size was modest, yet it exerted enough influence to cleave the Nine Dragons River in two, causing the waters to diverge and flow around the island.

The heavens above were dark and oppressive, with dense black clouds gathered overhead.

Rain was forming within them and, when the pressure became too great, it descended in torrents.

The world felt cold and grim; the autumn winds of these days carried a deadly bleakness.

The official road was waterlogged and muddy, but as Li Che strolled with Xi Xi’s hand in his, not a single speck of dirt marred their attire.

Even the rain seemed to be deflected by an unseen barrier.

Holding Xi Xi’s hand, Li Che raised his gaze and observed Ancestor Dragon Island. From a distance, the island resembled a colossal dragon coiled around a mountain shaped like a triangular pyramid.

Mysterious Fog swirled and writhed, clearly indicating the presence of a Mysterious Temple on Ancestor Dragon Island.

In essence, Ancestor Dragon Island itself was a unique form of Mysterious Temple.

Buzz buzz buzz——

Li Che’s gaze was sharp and penetrating; with a single glance, he discerned the mountain’s summit where a True Dragon was coiled, and there, a silver ring pulsed with brilliant light.

A humming, vibrating sound accompanied the spectacle.

Upon this silver ring, mystic-hued lightning continuously wove and intertwined. The descending bolts struck the island, evoking the impression of a gargantuan dragon’s agonizing cry.

Furthermore, an aura that seemed to solidify the very fabric of space coiled and intermingled there—this was the Divine Aura emanating from the Mystic Thunder Vajra Qiankun Ring.

"Daddy... Xi Xi feels a little unwell!"

Xi Xi’s lips quivered as she squirmed her small body; the blood coursing through her veins accelerated, her tiny heart pounded like the war drums of a Heavenly God!

Her gaze remained fixed on the immense silver ring suspended above Ancestor Dragon Island.

An unprecedented yearning surged within her heart; her very consciousness felt on the verge of being claimed and controlled, her body compelled to move uncontrollably towards the island, to embrace that Qiankun Ring.

The myriad Divine Weapons integrated within her body appeared completely awakened at this very moment.

The Divinity radiating outwards flowed and impacted her muscles and bones, rendering her Martial Saint body exceptionally resilient.

The Essence Qi surging from the Martial Arts Human Pill seemed poised to transform into an immense ocean!

More than that, the Divinity spilling from the Divine Weapons was frantically pouring into her Brow Niwan.

And towards that Divine Aura, it was filled with an boundless longing.

This was the yearning originating from the Eight-Armed Three-Faced Hell Lotus Unbreakable Divine Image within the Shen Yuan Golden Elixir.

In the future, this Eight-Armed Three-Faced Hell Lotus Unbeaten Divine Image would undergo a transformation into a Divine Fetus, resonating profoundly with this Divine Aura!

Li Che observed Xi Xi, sensing the transformations occurring within her.

The closer they approached, the more pronounced Xi Xi’s changes became.

This was the potency of the Divine Armor Set.

Fusion Soldier Body Refining—merging with a single Mythical Weapon was sufficient to elevate one’s cultivation limit to Supreme. To merge with a Divine Armor Set...

The future held immeasurable potential.

Buzz——

The Seven-orifice Exquisite Heart emitted Pure Heart Divinity, aiding Xi Xi in moderating this surge of impulse.

Li Che looked at Xi Xi with tenderness.

Xi Xi lifted her head high, her eyes shining as she met Li Che’s gaze.

Father and daughter shared a look and a smile.

Xi Xi did not comprehend the source of her Daddy’s unwavering confidence.

However, as a daughter, mere words were unnecessary—choosing to trust her Daddy was sufficient!

Li Che clasped Xi Xi’s hand.

His gaze then shifted towards Ancestor Dragon Island.

In the following instant, he lifted his foot and stomped down with immense force.

Boom——!!!!

The ground fractured, plunging three zhang deep, and clouds of dust erupted like an expansive curtain!

An earth-shattering explosion resounded, akin to a thunderclap originating ten thousand zhang above the heavens!

The waters of the Nine Dragons River erupted, forming a water curtain that soared a hundred zhang high.

Amidst this spectacle, Li Che, holding Xi Xi's hand, traversed the crest of the colossal water curtain.

The aura emanating from his being surged relentlessly, climbing ever higher...

A resplendent pillar of Qi-Blood pierced the heavens, shattering the pervasive autumn clouds!

It resembled a blazing, radiant sun ascending into the firmament!

In that singular moment, he appeared to be the sole focus of existence between heaven and earth!

Every powerful expert converging on the scene was utterly astonished, rendered speechless!

Each one of them gazed, dumbfounded and dazed!

Within a lavishly decorated carriage.

The alluring and captivating Noble Consort Su Da leaped to her feet, her bewitching eyes reflecting sheer disbelief.

"A Mortal Martial Immortal!"
