“Five Great Clans, Five Great Sects… the Divine Guard Army, the Temple Control Bureau… all have Seal Granters?”
Almost the entire Golden Light Prefecture City’s powerful forces were infiltrated by the Corpse God Cult!
Is the infiltration power of the Corpse God Cult really so terrifying?
These people have reached such high positions and enjoy endless glory, wealth and power, why would they still make such a choice?
It is incomprehensible, totally incomprehensible…
Li Qingshan closed his eyes; even he could not calm his heart at this moment. He needed to cool down.
After a moment, Li Qingshan abruptly opened his eyes and looked at Li Che.
“On the day of the sect entrance examination, the direction of the Divine Sect… did you investigate it?”
Li Qingshan’s voice was somewhat hoarse.
Li Che shook his head, “I did not…”
“Because, Sect Master.”
Sect Master Nan Lihuo’s Divine Sense had nearly transformed into a Primordial Spirit, becoming extremely sensitive. That day, when Li Che stimulated the Corpse Curse Mark to detect with the Heaven and Earth chessboard, he was sensed before getting close.
To be cautious, Li Che did not probe further and dispersed the detection in that area.
Li Che looked at Li Qingshan, his eyes slightly tightening, “Are you suspecting… the Divine Sect?”
“Do you think that even the Divine Sect has been corrupted by the Corpse God Cult?”
This matter had become quite grave. Could it affect Xi Xi’s safety?
Li Qingshan narrowed his eyes, his fingers lightly tapping on the desk, “I am just speculating, cannot guarantee there isn’t any…”
“Anyway, I can be sure that among the high levels of the Golden Light City Lord Mansion, there are definitely those bewitched by the Corpse God Cult.”
“The three Divine Might Generals of the Golden Light City Lord Mansion’s Divine Guard Army, the three Governors of the Temple Control Bureau, the two Deputy Inspectors from the Qintian Observatory, the Divine Sect’s four Great Elders…”
“Among them, there must be those who have turned to the Corpse God Cult.”
Li Qingshan was very sure, it was evident he had received a harsh lesson, having been deceived before.
However, the roster provided by Li Che did not include these people.
Li Qingshan showed a slight disappointment, but he was confident in his conjecture.
He stared at the names on the roster, his fingers gently gliding over them.
“Let’s leave those aside for now, start with the Five Great Clans… Bull Demon, you choose a target.”
Li Qingshan narrowed his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Li Che picked up the teacup and gently sipped.
Initially, Li Che wanted to choose the Qin Family, as the pressure from them when he first arrived at the Mansion City was too great.
Moreover, he had killed Qin Yuqing from the Qin Family, and bore not a small grudge against them.
However, considering the Qin Family had taken the initiative to send gifts and apologize a couple of days ago…
Li Che thought it might be okay to switch targets.
His gaze fell on the roster, and upon seeing the name Shangguan Zhengheng, he remembered the scene when the latter burst with energy, attempting to oppress Xi Xi.
Li Che narrowed his eyes, his finger tapping lightly.
“Then let’s pick…”
“The Shangguan Family then.”
…
…
The gentle breeze flowed, and in the blink of an eye, several days had passed.
Within the small courtyard of the workshop.
The morning breeze was slightly cool, and within the small courtyard, wood shavings flew about tumultuously, pulled by an unseen force, rubbing against the ground with a rustling sound.
Inside the courtyard, his qi and blood were like a furnace, with his sweat vapor forming a rosy glow.
Amidst the surging misty air, Li Che was bare to the waist, revealing his robust muscles with exquisitely defined lines, sculpting a perfect body.
Pores all over his body opened wide as he slowly pushed his fists across.
The movements were very slow, yet the force behind them was immense and heavy, making him appear like a Buddha, clad in a dazzling golden garment.
Between the rising and falling of his muscle lines, an explosive force could be felt, and as they stretched and contracted, it was like an angered dragon softly chanting and roaring!
“Hoo—”
“Inhale—!”
With each inhale and exhale, Li Che’s breath was long and intermittent, with shifting and interwoven changes, enveloped in golden light, as if his robe was fluttering in flight.
With one step, the entire courtyard shook, all the floating wood shavings were pressed down by the force, sticking close to the ground as if an invisible wave of qi was pressing down upon them.
Li Che ended the sequence, and a multitude of hot air burst from his pores, sounding like the whistle of a boiling kettle!
Suddenly opening his eyes, his pupils shone brilliantly like shooting stars trailing light, momentarily spanning the night sky.
“Hoo—Maitreya Gold Armor, finally entering the Transformation Realm!”
The next moment, Li Che’s aura transformed dramatically, his muscles and bones chanting in unison as he pushed and slapped with fists and palms, the air rolling like waves.
There were sounds of a dragon’s chant and an elephant’s bellowing shattering the air!
The ultimate skill “Dragon Elephant True Force”!
With a transformation of the qi and blood in Li Che’s Divine Vein, he seemed to morph into a fearsome beast!
Bang—!
The air in the courtyard exploded with a thunderous boom, and the violently shooting airflow gradually calmed down after a long while.
The four variations of the Divine Vein!
Maitreya Gold Armor, Cloud Sparrowhawk Treading on Clouds, White Tiger Chaotic Wind Fist, Eight Consecutive Bone-Breaking Spears!
He had cultivated these four martial arts to the Transformation Realm, integrating them into the qi and blood of his Divine Vein to achieve a transformation of qi and blood!
With the four transformations of the Divine Vein, Li Che felt a tremendous increase in his physical strength, far surpassing himself when he first entered the initial transformation of the Divine Vein.
“If I reach the Nine Transformations of the Divine Vein… how powerful would that be? Paired with the recently learned ultimate skill ‘Dragon Elephant True Force’, even if I encounter a novice Grandmaster, could I not kill them even without activating the ‘Dragon Elephant Vajra’ boost?”
Li Che’s muscles and bones quivered as his aura climbed steadily, exhaling a breath like rolling thunder.
“There are five more qi and blood transformations, and five martial arts that are still at the Master level, not yet reaching the Transformation Realm… but it’s close.””
“Nine Transformations of the Divine Vein qi and blood, supplemented by ultimate skills, to break through the Grandmaster bottleneck…””
“Within one year, it should be achievable.””
“Then, it would be time to start collecting ultimate skills to perfect the ‘Dragon Elephant True Force’, making it possible to strive for the Great Master Realm…””
Li Che shook his head, the Great Grandmaster… was too far away for him.
Even with the help of the Dao Fruit, it was not possible for him to reach that level in a short time.
“Hmm, my Divine Cultivation… comes from Fei Lei Divine Constable Zhou Ruoguan’s ‘Chaotic Joyful Bewilderment Divine’ Divinity, and after drawing from the Ten Cities Divine Crystal to refine and absorb, I have reached ‘Cultivation as Riverlike’… It’s time to start building my Divine Foundation.”
