As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1762 - 458: In Qitian Temple, Witnessing the Great Saint’s Corpse—Obtaining the Complete Face of Equaling Heaven and Acquiring the Immortal Seed...
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
Li Che pinpointed the Mysterious Temple's location, situated at the far end of the Inner City, where a magnificent palace rose upon a small hill.
From that palace, the Primordial Chaos Ruyi Golden Cudgel jutted outward.
Thus, the Mysterious Temple resided there!
Yet, via the Heaven and Earth chessboard, Li Che could not detect the conditions within the Mysterious Temple.
A thick mysterious fog, blended with potent Dao Yun, divinity, Death Qi, and Corpse Qi, formed an indescribably turbulent chaos.
For Li Che’s [Chess Saint] Dao Fruit, now advanced to level 6, this represented the very first instance of such an occurrence...
"The Chess Saint’s Dao Fruit rank remains insufficient; should it ascend to level 7, it might penetrate this veil!"
Li Che lightly knit his brows.
The Heaven and Earth chessboard thundered; strands, interlaced like intersecting trails, extended and positioned themselves over the Inner City.
Suddenly, Li Che halted, struck with astonishment.
For he discovered that throughout the city, various figures materialized in scattered locations across the Qi Tian Inner City.
Amid Heaven and Earth, the mysterious fog swirled, faintly layering divinity into divine motifs, generating a teleportation force.
It conveyed every powerful individual who entered through the city gate and its passage to distinct zones inside the Qi Tian Inner City.
Through the Heaven and Earth chessboard, Li Che spotted the Black Bull Demon God Venerable carrying the Sea-crossing Purple Gold Beam.
He also noticed the monk from the Western Regions Buddha Land adorned with cicada designs.
He further observed Lv Taibai, Lv Qiankun, Fang Hanshu, and other familiar figures spread out.
All of them were dispersed like ornaments across different sections of the Qi Tian Inner City.
Since Li Che journeyed alone, he felt no such effect.
At that instant, he had lingered by the city gate for some time, yet no one emerged from the shadowy gate tunnel behind him, evidently...
Li Che glanced over his shoulder, his Star Plucking Pupil gleaming, promptly revealing that the dim gate passage was threaded with divine patterns of divinity shrouded in the mysterious fog.
Anchored firmly in position.
It shaped an entry and exit point, bridging the Qi Tian City of the human realm with the Qi Tian Inner City of this Strange Que!
A metropolis spanning two worlds!
Resembling a bridge that linked the human world and the Strange Que realms!
And it evaded drawing the gaze and vigilance of the human world's Heaven and Earth Will!
Truly extraordinary!
Li Che felt deep awe.
Thud thud thud thud—
In that moment, over the Qi Tian Inner City, battle drum echoes seemed to resound, thunderous and urging the heart to throb in sync without thought.
As the drumbeats resounded.
Li Che's heart quivered faintly, his consciousness connecting to the Heaven and Earth chessboard, abruptly surging toward the Qi Tian Inner City's distant edge, traversing a vast span, almost touching the chessboard's perceptual boundary.
There...
The mysterious fog, divinity, Dao Yun, Death Qi, and Corpse Qi enveloping the palace were completely swept aside.
Slowly...
The Mysterious Temple emerged before Li Che’s eyes.
And through the scattered energies of the mysterious fog and the like.
Li Che perceived that inside the lavish, brilliant palace, a stone coffin occupied the central spot, encircled by elaborate black lotus engravings.
From that stone coffin, roiling Death Qi and Corpse Qi emanated.
Yet within, a corpse reposed.
Li Che pushed the Heaven and Earth chessboard to its utmost, paired with his Star Plucking Pupil, for a close inspection.
His pupils shrank at once.
Within the coffin, a corpse lay.
As though a rapid light streaked through his thoughts, the visage similar to Equal to Heaven’s bore an unwitting expression of grief.
That was...
The corpse of the Qi Tian Temple God!
Indeed...
The remains of a Great Saint!
