Capítulo 1748: Chapter 455: I Heard Your Voice in the Underworld—A Day of Demon God Slaughter, Qitian Recovery
“Arriving just in time beats coming too soon, and with midnight treats to boot…” Li Che murmured with a light laugh.
Gazing at the elegantly arranged, crystal-clear dumplings, Li Che dove right in without a second thought.
He savored this tasty late-night bite alongside Xi Xi.
The proprietor settled into his seat, rolled up a pair of smokes, and handed one over to Li Che.
Li Che tapped his chopsticks, abandoned the notion of vying with his dear daughter for that final dumpling, set the utensils aside, accepted the cigarette, and ignited it using the Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame.
After that, he proceeded to exchange puffs of smoke with the proprietor.
“Qi Tian City’s gates are on the verge of unlocking.”
The proprietor remarked in a flat tone.
Li Che gave a nod, showing little astonishment.
“It starts tomorrow.”
The proprietor went on.
On this occasion, Li Che’s gaze flickered a bit as he turned his eyes: “Tomorrow?”
A twinge of regret stirred within Li Che’s chest.
His scheme to gather the Twelve Demon Gods had reached only halfway…
Four Three Tribulations Demon Gods and three First Tribulations Demon Gods remained unrecruited.
Yet, Li Che wasn’t overly bothered by it.
Shifts in strategies happen all the time; nothing in existence runs flawlessly.
“Tomorrow, eh… That’s quick.”
“Time doesn’t pause for anyone.”
Li Che blew out a stream of smoke.
The proprietor shot Li Che a sideways look, seemingly implying, are those words even fit for a mortal?
Talking about time not pausing, if granted more days, you’d likely seize control of Qi Tian City entirely!
Li Che rose to his feet, shook off some ash: “Owner, I’m leaving Xi Xi in your care.”
With Qi Tian City’s legacy unsealing, true turmoil was set to erupt, as concealed demons and ghosts stirred from their lairs.
Xi Xi would surely remain under the proprietor’s watch.
The proprietor brushed away ash and murmured softly: “Rest easy, I won’t let Gouzi starve, or her either.”
Li Che burst into a hearty guffaw, then splayed his fingers and ripped through Qianyuan Space, gesturing toward the proprietor.
“Want these supplies?”
Contained within were the transformed corpses of slain Demon Gods.
The proprietor’s eyes gleamed faintly, like a master cook eyeing prime cuts.
“Certainly.”
Without delay, the proprietor claimed every one of those materials.
After parting from the proprietor and Xi Xi, Li Che made his way back to the Bull Demon’s courtyard abode.
The night hung thick like ink, with dark clouds churning over the Heavenly Dome, an intense pressure bearing down relentlessly on the mortal realm.
As though it aimed to choke the breath from everyone.
The leftover Demon Gods escaped recruitment in the nick of time, yet Li Che remained unperturbed and didn’t rush to pursue them.
Li Che assumed a cross-legged position, his consciousness delving into the Tao Tribulation Space.
He commenced the refinement of Tao Tribulation Power.
Boom——!!!
His consciousness trembled, yanked abruptly from the Tao Tribulation Space.
Li Che’s eyes blazed with intensity.
His five digits extended, and a bead of deep blue liquid swirled, shifting forms in his grasp.
“It worked!”
Primordial Water Tribulation, Heart-purifying Stream, now under his command!
[Dao Tribulation: Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame (4%), Primordial Sky Slash (2%), Primordial Heart Cleansing Stream (1%)]
A grin slowly spread across Li Che’s mouth.
Rumble—
High above the Heavenly Dome, lightning bolts slithered while savage gales roared!
Myriad violent streams intertwined and expanded like a vast net!
Li Che cradled a droplet of Primordial Water Tribulation.
The whole of Qi Tian City quaked violently in that instant!
Li Che directed his sight to the soil encircling his little courtyard.
The thick Mysterious Fog…
Rose gently from the earth’s depths…
In a flash.
Swallowing the skies and lands!
Roar——
And from the Inner City sector of Qi Tian City…
A furious bellow thundered forth!
Clatter, clatter, clatter…
The clamor of innumerable chains scraping along echoed.
Li Che raised his head, dimly perceiving in Qi Tian City’s Inner City a human-like form, shackled and entwined by chains, writhing without cease!
The Qitian Temple God…
Had begun to stir!
