As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1754: 457: A Lawless Monkey Dwelling in the Heart, Gathering the Final Qitian Mask Piece

Bzzzzz——
The enigmatic mist continues to swirl, and from beyond the walls of Qi Tian City, the whole place has shed its former glory, now shrouded in a dense haze.
The human eye struggles to pierce through this puzzling veil, failing to glimpse anything inside.
Not even the cultivators clustered outside, leaping about in agitation, can escape this profound sense of powerlessness, their gazes filled with deep frustration.
Everyone there understands they’ve already forfeited their shot at glory.
Still, what’s gone is gone, no point dwelling on it. Even if they had joined the Temple God Resonance, success wasn’t guaranteed; all they’ve missed is the entry into Qi Tian City’s Inner City to compete for the legacy hidden in the Equal Heaven Temple.
The Temple God Resonance is no stranger to the world—everyone knows the odds of success are slim, with true inheritors being incredibly scarce.
Yet, no one can rule out the chance of being that fortunate soul.
But now, barred from even stepping into Qi Tian City, they’ve naturally lost any shot at that fortune too.
That said, the distinguished guests from the Great Scenery Jianghu and the mighty heads of various sects outside Qi Tian City have sparked their interest.
Who exactly will claim the inheritance through the Qitian Temple God’s resonance?
The legacy from a Three Pure Ones Mysterious Temple God Resonance could upend the very heavens!
Numerous individuals recalled the Great Supervising Minister’s words about the Three Pure Ranks divine weapon concealed in Qi Tian City: the Hun Yuan Ruyi Golden Cudgel!
Just this Three Pure Ones Divine Weapon from the Divine Weapon List alone is sufficient to stun the entire realm!
For an instant, all those staring at the churning mist over Qi Tian City couldn’t suppress their curiosity and anticipation.
…
…
Rustle——
A soft wind swept through, bending the ground’s grass and causing the tree leaves to sway, clinking like tinkling silver bells brushing together.
A serene Daoist Temple rested peacefully amid heaven and earth, as if fused with the cosmos, expansive and boundless.
Li Che crooked his fingers and tapped three light knocks on the head of the energetic little monkey in front of him.
“Transformation technique… I know it.”
The little monkey froze in shock.
Instinctively, it shielded its head, its vibrant monkey eyes swirling with endless rings of bewilderment.
The entire creature seemed plunged into utter disarray.
It stung…
But why did this evoke such a strange familiarity, inexplicably pricking the little monkey’s nose and drawing forth sorrowful tears.
Li Che stood quietly, watching the little monkey, his heart quivering faintly.
Yet when he glanced again, the little monkey had wiped the tears from its face, cocking its head and bouncing around Li Che—who donned the Divine Monkey Mask—circling him fully.
“Since you know the transformation technique? Then give it a try!”
The little monkey swung its oversized sleeves, posturing like a wise scholar, and paced a bit.
Li Che smiled lightly; he realized the Temple God Resonance was underway.
The Temple God Resonance demands harmony with the Temple God, both in form and spirit—as long as there’s synergy, it sparks a resonance, granting the Temple God’s inheritance.
“Alright, then watch closely.”
Transformation technique…
Did Li Che know it?
Of course he did; for him, the transformation technique posed no real challenge.
Boom——
Inside Li Che’s chest, the Fruit of the Heavenly Dao from Within the Painting vibrated intensely; he could effortlessly harness this Fruit to shift through countless shapes and alterations.
Ink swirled wildly, amid the churning ink clouds, Li Che morphed into all sorts of figures—from birds and beasts to bugs and buildings…
Endless varieties, shifts beyond compare!
As the ink mist billowed, whatever could be sketched could be seamlessly assumed.
This was Li Che’s own distinctive transformation technique.
“Is that enough?”
Li Che dispersed the ink mist, reverting to his form with the Divine Monkey Mask, eyeing the little monkey.
The little monkey’s eyes gleamed with wonder, staring in awe, its spirits soaring, sleeves flapping as it clapped enthusiastically.
This was truly an Immortal Skill.
He yearned to master it, had to master such an Immortal Skill!
“Great, amazing transformation technique, must learn! Want to learn!”
The little monkey whooped in delight.
Then, eagerly tugging Li Che along, it guided him toward the Daoist Temple.
Stones rose and hovered through unseen powers, the little monkey scampered and leaped across them.
Quickly, it ushered Li Che inside the Daoist Temple.
The little monkey spotted a mat and settled onto it casually; Li Che watched, then copied the posture, sitting on another mat.
Bong——
A bell’s toll rang out, grand and imposing, lingering with an ethereal echo.
Li Che shut his eyes, and when he opened them, he fixed his gaze on the Daoist Temple’s core, where a Divine Sculpture had materialized on the central altar.
It depicted an elderly Daoist, robes flowing, exuding benevolence and poise, surrounded by an aura of immortality.
Strikingly vivid, almost tangible—even for today’s Li Che, replicating such divine craftsmanship was impossible.
The Divine Sculpture’s eyes fluttered open, locking onto Li Che.
“You rascal.”
In the next instant, Li Che sensed a horsetail whisk tapping his head thrice, and despite his Martial Immortal Golden Body, his mind buzzed as if it had turned to paste.
