As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1944: Martial Immortal Li Che Shocks the World, Breaks the 99-Layer Killing Array and Bloodbath at Dragon Island (2)
Previously on As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality...
Li Che’s gaze calmly surveyed the surroundings, settling upon Ancestor Dragon Island. Observing the swirling dragon shadows, he perceived distinct differences between the Four Seas Dragon Clan and the Dragon God Lineage. The Four Seas Dragon Clan bore no trace of demon energy, a stark contrast to the Dragon God Lineage. He pondered if this indicated a purer lineage compared to the Dragon God Lineage's dragons. Despite this burgeoning curiosity, Li Che did not dwell on it, as the distinctions held no relevance to his current objective. He reasoned that any future dragon subjugation would simply involve less demon energy to siphon, posing little impact on him.
Ancestor Dragon Island sprawled across the Nine Dragons River, its waters churning and roaring as though subjected to intense heat, sending up veils of steam that obscured the heavens and earth. From this island, countless dragon shadows began to emerge.
Rumble——
In the ensuing moment, the sky-obscuring vapors were ripped asunder. Li Che, clasping Xi Xi’s hand, unleashed his golden Qi, a radiant current connecting heaven and earth. It acted like an exceptionally sharp spear, penetrating all obstacles as they set foot upon Ancestor Dragon Island.
Boom——
The impact of his footfall onto Ancestor Dragon Island resonated like a colossal drum being struck, causing the very ground to yield and fracture, with cracks spreading outwards.
Upon arrival, Li Che sensed an undeniable anomaly. A mysterious fog surged through the atmosphere, and an oppressive force descended like a colossal mountain. His brows furrowed slightly as a jolt resonated within him, intensifying his unease. He mused that Ancestor Dragon Island, being the ancestral domain of the dragon clan, possessed an extraordinary aura. He wondered if a slumbering divine spirit of the dragon clan resided within its depths, as this seemed the most likely source of the profound oppression and dread he was experiencing.
Could it be that the Mystic Thunder Vajra Qiankun Ring was meant to suppress this very dragon clan divine spirit?
Buzzing——
A chilling killing aura permeated the air, blanketing the space around Ancestor Dragon Island in an intense coldness, reminiscent of a winter's descent. Snow seemed to drift, and all life appeared to wither. From Ancestor Dragon Island, formidable auras erupted, and coiling dragon shadows ascended, their frigid gazes fixed upon Li Che and his daughter.
"Pure Martial... Martial Immortal!"
"Ghost Emperor of the Underworld!"
The assembled dragon shadows on Ancestor Dragon Island voiced their shock and apprehension. They had never anticipated activating the Mystic Thunder Vajra Qiankun Ring with such ease. Their original scheme was to use the connection via the Divine Armor Set to coerce Li Nuanxi to this location. Their hope was that if the Daughter of Prison Lotus could seize the Qiankun Ring, it would be ideal. If not, capturing her and gaining control of her would suffice, securing an advantage for the dragon clan regardless of the outcome.
Despite Li Nuanxi’s remarkable abilities and protection by a peerless fierce beast of the Second Calamity Venerable level, that formidable guardian had been eliminated by the Heaven and Earth Will. Li Nuanxi, unaware of the true value of a Second Calamity protector, had carelessly summoned it, thus squandering the beast’s protective capabilities.
However——
Now, Li Che had arrived. Li Nuanxi’s father, a figure who had consistently maintained a low profile. Although many were aware of Li Che's existence, he was primarily recognized as the unremarkable Horse Face among Earthly Hell’s Evil, known for his mastery of mechanical arts.
And now...
In his determination to retrieve the Qiankun Ring for his daughter, Li Che had unhesitatingly revealed his cultivation and exposed his true identity! The individual who single-handedly held the line in Qitian Inner City, vanquishing the powerful figures of the All Gods Camp and preventing their advance – the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld, the Mortal Martial Immortal... It was Li Che all along!
The formidable members of the Four Seas Dragon Clan guarding Ancestor Dragon Island felt as though the very heavens were caving in. An ominous premonition instantly seized their hearts and minds!
Li Che regarded the agitated dragon shadows on Ancestor Dragon Island with a placid expression. He had to concede that the Four Seas Dragon Clan, originating from Strange Que, vastly surpassed the Dragon God Lineage. It was no wonder the Old Dragon God had been compelled to relocate the Dragon God Lineage from Ancestor Dragon Island, seeking new territory and a sanctuary for propagation on land. Li Che gently shook his head, his hand still firmly holding Xi Xi’s, refusing to let go.
Ancestor Dragon Island presented itself as a colossal stone peak, utterly barren, its vegetation withered and leafless, devoid of any green, embodying only a grim desolation.
Furthermore, the stony mountain was riddled with countless drilled holes, densely populated...
At this precise moment, serpentine dragon shadows began to emerge incessantly from these apertures, their gazes silently scrutinizing the father and daughter pair.
Their collective stare was chilling, bloodthirsty, wild, and merciless, radiating the inherent cold-blooded nature characteristic of reptiles.
A subtle curve graced Li Che’s lips.
"Xi Xi, are you feeling frightened?"
Upon hearing her father’s question, Xi Xi tilted her head with unyielding pride, stating, "Father is a Martial Immortal; how could little Xi Xi possibly feel fear?"
Li Che’s heart felt as though it were suffused with the sweetness of honey; his daughter's words were exceptionally endearing.
So charming, so delightful to hear.
With such a precious daughter, how could Li Che possibly permit her to be exposed to the forefront, leaving her vulnerable to the enemy's onslaught?
As a devoted father, he absolutely had to step forward at this critical juncture!
Li Che offered a smile while gently grasping Xi Xi’s hand, experiencing a fleeting sense of profound reminiscence.
His thoughts, without his conscious intent, drifted back to a scene from a distant past.
It was then, still within the confines of Fei Lei City, that he was similarly guiding Xi Xi, heading into perilous encounters, immersing in the brutal reality of conflict. Li Che yearned for Xi Xi’s absolute safety yet found himself unable to shield her entirely from the world's pervasive darkness.
