As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality

Nan Li Huo thought of something and asked,

He described the appearance of the butterfly, and the widely knowledgeable Chief Supervisor was puzzled.

"This old man has never heard of this divine butterfly beast; I will have to return and consult the ancient texts for answers," he said.

After speaking, the Chief Supervisor picked up his erhu and small stool, took his leave, and departed.

Before leaving, the Chief Supervisor paused and glanced towards Nan Li Huo, who stood alone at the summit, with his clothes wildly fluttering in the mountain’s draft.

"Southern Sect Master, regardless of your grievances with the Prefecture Master... now, with the Corpse God Cult’s overwhelming approach, threat is imminent. It would be best for the many forces of Mansion City to unite," he said.

"Otherwise, the mountain of corpses and sea of blood that befell Jizhou... will be Golden Light Prefecture’s fate next."

"Southern Sect Master, please consider the bigger picture," he said.

Nan Li Huo nodded gently in agreement.

The mountain wind was cold and desolate.

Nan Li Huo’s ample sleeves swept up behind him, clinging tightly to his body and outlining his incredibly emaciated figure.

"The bigger picture..."

Nan Li Huo smiled gently, muttered under his breath, and then turned and re-entered the palace.

He sat cross-legged on a meditation cushion and prayed to the gods.

...

...

The Heaven and Earth chessboard expanded, covering a few miles in diameter centered around the workshop courtyard.

Inside the house.

Li Che took out Shangguan Zhengheng’s Qiankun Jade.

With the Thousand Analyzing Hands, he easily tore through the jade’s barrier, and his consciousness directly entered to count his gains.

According to Li Qingshan and Lin Xiu, the spoils were to be shared with Horse Face.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

But since both Ox Demon and Horse Face were Li Che, he unapologetically claimed it all for himself.

He first focused his attention on the Divine Crystals, believing that a Family Head’s collection should not disappoint.

One by one, the Divine Crystals were extracted from the Qiankun Jade by Li Che—compared to the Fishing Gang’s deputy leader, Liu Jinsong, Shangguan Zhengheng was indeed far wealthier.

Although both were Illusory Phase Realm Cultivators, their wealth was on totally different levels.

After all, Shangguan Zhengheng had the backing of the Shangguan Family.

The Ten Cities Divine Crystals numbered fifty-two, while the Nine Luminaries Divine Crystals reached a staggering fifteen! The only pity was that there were no Eight Extremes Divine Crystals.

Li Che, though regretful, was not surprised.

After all, Eight Extremes Divine Crystals were excellent for cultivation, and Shangguan Zhengheng would have certainly used them for cultivation upon obtaining them.

Nonetheless, such a bounty was more than enough for Li Che to cultivate for a long time, even to the point of forging the other three cycles of Divine Foundation and cultivating them to the Middle Realm level.

Divine Weapons were few, only two. According to the feedback from Thousand Analyzing Hands, one was of Eight Extremes grade, and the other... had actually reached the Seven-Yuan Level!

Seven Elements Divine Weapon!

And it was a heavy halberd, measuring eighteen feet long!

Li Che’s eyes shone with excitement.

With a grab of five fingers, he pulled the halberd, the Seven Elements Divine Weapon, out from the Qiankun jade.

Boom—!

In an instant, countless swooping lightning serpents roared, and a myriad of air currents whooshed furiously!

...

[Divine Weapon (Seven Elements Superior Grade): Flood Dragon Bone Wind-Thunder Halberd]

[Craftsmanship: Forged and hammered with Thousand-Year Profound Iron paired with Seven-Element Demon Jiao Bones, weighing three thousand pounds, can resonate with various Divinities, possesses the strangeness of wind and thunder, extreme manipulation, can summon Jiao Soul to assist in battle]

[Required wielder: Qi-Blood Grandmaster or above, Divine Base Perfection or above]

...

Li Che’s hair flew wildly as he felt the heft in his hand, yet he was overjoyed.

With a "humming boom," his body suddenly swelled, bulking up another size.

Under the Vajra Transformation, he had more than enough strength to brandish the Flood Dragon Bone Wind-Thunder Halberd just right!

After deftly swinging it a few times, bringing a whirlwind of haunting gusts and shooting air currents, Li Che was content and promptly stored it in the Qiankun Space of his Pure Heart Dao Fruit.

As for the other Eight Extremes Divine Weapon, it was a Ruyi Armor, which could be resized at will and provided formidable defense; even a direct blow from a Grandmaster would do little harm.

Shangguan Zhengheng normally wore it close to his body, but in his search for pleasure on the Yunfang Boat, he had taken it off, which resulted in his being beaten to death by one Divine Minister, one Illusory Phase, and one sniper.

Honestly, it was quite a stifling way to go.

The quantity of Elixirs was vast, making Li Che feel like he had struck it rich because he needed a lot of the Corpse God Thousand Ghosts Death Qi Condensing Martial Pills for the cultivation of his Cursed Copper Corpse.

Analysed by Thousand Analyzing Hands, this Elixir was not actually made from human flesh and blood as imagined. Instead, it was crafted from a variety of precious herbs, combined with Demon Beast blood and collected Death Qi, hence a Martial Pill.

Essentially, it was still a botanical-based Martial Pill, not an evil one.

Using human flesh and blood to make an Elixir would bring significant side effects and have a lower cost-benefit ratio compared to Pills made with Demon Beast blood and precious spiritual herbs.

That was also why Li Che felt confident about ingesting and assimilating them.

"Nine bottles of Death Qi Martial Pills, one of which is an Eight Extremes Martial Pill! Eight bottles are Ninth Rank Superior Death Qi Condensing Martial Pills!"

Shangguan Zhengheng had prepared so many Pills...

He planned to use these Elixirs to solidify the foundation of his Cursed Copper Corpse in one fell swoop!

Good fellow!

Now all the benefits go to Li Che!

Li Che’s smiled crookedly, delighted by the turn of events, and with a flick of his finger, he tore through the air, stowing all nine bottles of Elixir into his Qianyuan Space.

He wondered if these Pills would be enough to cultivate him to the level of a Qi-Blood Grandmaster!

Composing himself, Li Che continued to tally his gains.

In the aspect of Divine Methods, he finally found the Divine Method of Fear he had been yearning for.

And it was comprehensive, complete with Methods from Nurturing Nature, Divine Foundation to Illusory Phase and Divine Minister.

""The Seven Elements Extremely Terrifying God Plunderer Life-Taking Divine Minister Technique," that is the foundational Dharma of the Shangguan Family... The Seven Elements Divine Aspect Technique, meaning the old ancestor of the Shangguan Family had formed the Seven Elements Divine Visage!"

Li Che’s eyes flickered, he skimmed through the Divine Aspect Technique for a while, then put it away.
