As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1567: 416: Devouring Dragon Energy—Three Successive Evolutions of the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor, Old Dragon God Comes East Yet Finds No Dragon Sons or Grandsons [Monthly Ticket Requested]_2...

This immense strength was a gift from the Dragon Emperor Pearl!

It was the sacred treasure bestowed by the Old Dragon God, representing the final hope for the new generation of the Dragon God Clan to ascend to the Dragon God Realm.

“Bull Demon——!!!”

A roar of pure rage erupted from the Dragon God Crown Prince's maw, sending vibrations and echoes through the surroundings!

Suddenly, the Crown Prince snapped his head upward. Three dark silhouettes plunged toward the city, and he instantly recognized them as his own brothers.

They had arrived...

And every single one had been captured!

What were the intentions of this Netherworld Bull Demon? How could he be so reckless?!

Fury and disbelief warred within the Dragon God Crown Prince. He was well aware that the Dragon Emperor Pearl granted him the combat prowess of a half-step Dragon God. Furthermore, if the three Dragon Sons combined their strengths, they too could unleash power equivalent to a half-step Dragon God!

That meant facing two entities at the half-step Divine Realm!

The Underworld had dared to drag them all in so brazenly...

Did he not even consider the strategy of defeating them one by one?

How deep was his contempt for them?!

Buzz——

With a slight tremor of his frame, the Dragon God Crown Prince reverted to his human form, his eyes burning with a mixture of shock and resentment.

“I suggest you stay in your dragon form.”

A composed voice resonated between the heavens and the earth.

A sound like the cracking of celestial lightning split the sky. Then, the Bull Demon’s massive, mountain-like silhouette emerged. Behind him, a colossal Qi Blood Furnace manifested, shining with the brilliance of a rising Great Sun.

It draped the entire dark city in a veil of shimmering golden silk!

“Bull Demon! You are looking for death!”

The Dragon God Crown Prince spoke with a voice like ice.

Behind him, the three Dragon Sons appeared, their faces masks of indignation and confusion. They had been in deep slumber, as the harsh winter was uncomfortable for their kind, usually spent in hibernation.

Without warning, they had been disturbed and tossed into this city.

Hadn't the Divine Tribulation Cultivator, Zhao Beidou, claimed he had demolished the Underworld’s city?

It seemed even a Divine Tribulation expert was capable of boasting!

Where was the destruction?!

Boom——!!!

Li Che, hidden behind the Bull Demon Mask, stared down coldly at the four Dragon Sons. Within his chest, the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit pulsed with a rapid rhythm.

Thick demon energy was immediately reflected in his eyes.

As his gaze swept across them, his brows rose slightly. He noticed that the Dragon God Crown Prince’s demon energy was a deep green, while the three Dragon Sons possessed a paler, green-white aura.

So, there were varying densities of demon energy?

It appeared the core function of the Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit was to allow him to perceive the exact intensity of the Demon Race’s energy.

It could be identified by color.

This meant no member of the Demon Race could hide from him.

Even if they assumed human shape, their demon energy remained visible to Li Che’s eyes.

The energy coming off the Golden-haired Hou was also that pale green-white, much like the three Dragon Sons, though it was of a lower grade than the Dragon God Crown Prince’s aura.

The Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dao Fruit was practically starving for the demon energy of the four Dragon Clans standing before him.

Boom——!!!

Wasting no more time on words, Li Che’s frame shuddered. The muscles and bones of his mountain-like physique vibrated as golden Qi Blood erupted behind him, causing divine seeds to burst forth.

Li Che’s physical form fully awakened. At this moment, his Martial Immortal Golden Body radiated a brilliant light!

Two opponents at the half-step Martial God level... a perfect opportunity to test the limits of his Martial Immortal Golden Body!

In Li Che’s perspective, the Martial Immortal and Martial God paths had evolved into two entirely different systems.

While both focused on physical refinement, the path of a Martial God was inextricably linked to divinity. One had to open the Heavenly Gate and use the divine power flowing from it to forge their flesh and bone; that was the Martial God’s way.

The Dragon God Crown Prince focused his mind, opened his jaw, and released a thunderous dragon’s chant!

The resulting sound waves exploded into an invisible sonic wall, warping the air and striking at the soul. It was as if the wind and rain of the city had vanished, leaving only that piercing draconic roar!

The turbulent air currents shattered raindrops and scattered the black mists as they collided violently with the Bull Demon.

Deep within the Dragon God Crown Prince, the Dragon Emperor Pearl surged with concentrated demon energy, pushing his aura past its natural limits!

He clenched his fist, his immense Qi Blood and physical strength causing the void to tremble. Rampant divinity surged, and a dragon shadow seemed to weave behind him!

Accompanied by that world-shaking roar, the Dragon God Crown Prince threw a punch. His fist was coated in fine dragon scales, appearing as if it were encased in dragon armor!

Boom!

It was a raw, unadorned clash of fists!

Li Che channeled the Martial Immortal Golden Body. Mellow golden smoke drifted from his eyes, his blood boiled like molten golden mercury, and his golden bones hummed in resonance!

A devastating power erupted like a breaking dam!

Bang——!!!

Fist met fist in a violent impact. The resulting shockwaves rippled outward, causing the very space to wrinkle like crumpled fabric as tiny cracks began to appear!

The air exploded with the sound of thunder!

After just a single exchange, the Dragon God Crown Prince’s expression twisted in horror!

Is this a human?!

Can a human truly possess such a physical body?

How can he be this powerful?!

Feeling the overwhelming force crashing against him like a mountain flood, the strength the Dragon God Crown Prince had borrowed from the Dragon Emperor Pearl—reaching the half-step Divine Realm—seemed on the verge of collapse. It felt as though his power was riddled with fractures, unable to endure the strain!

Bang——!!!

The air behind them was crushed to the extreme before exploding into a series of ripples!

The Dragon God Crown Prince was driven into the earth. His striking hand was a mess of blood, the bones within completely shattered...
