It also served as a method for Xi Xi to defend herself.
Li Che felt himself quite busy, with martial paths to cultivate, Immortal Artisan tasks to do, and Divinity to refine…
He stood up, his bones crackling loudly.
His potent qi and blood vibrated.
With his bare hands, Li Che drew out the cute Cute Cow mask and covered his face with it.
In front of him, light flickered. Explore stories at m,v l’e-NovelFire
[Dao Fruit: Chess Saint (LV1,89%)]
The rate of enhancement of the Chess Saint’s Dao Fruit… It was somewhat beyond Li Che’s imagination.
But, it was also within expectations.
After all, it integrated the Divinity of a Divine Foundation from the Yang Family’s Old Deng, turning it into a chess piece, which substantially increased its maturity.
With a squeeze of his fingers, the Divinity Thunder Chess Piece from the “Three-eyed Wrathful True Lord Lingying Bizarre Temple” outside the city was immediately grasped in his hand.
Upon opening his eyes again, he already appeared inside the flickering candle-lit Mysterious Temple.
During this period, Zhao Xuanhai’s [Wrathful Maitreya] Divinity had already been exhausted, and Li Che had replaced it with the Temple God’s Fury Divinity, which worked surprisingly well with hardly any rejection.
Now, the [Wrathful Maitreya] Divinity had reached the peak of Cultivation as Riverlike.
He was also not far from forging a Divine Foundation.
“However, I have yet to master the [Wrathful Maitreya] Divine Foundation Technique,”
“This Dharma… the City Lord’s Mansion should have it.”
Having finished absorbing the Divinity, Li Che leaped down from the altar.
He glanced at the increasingly numerous various Ling Tong Wood Carvings arranged around him.
Li Che’s brows furrowed slightly.
“City Lord… or should I say, the leader of the Spirit Infant Sect’s Thousand Buddha Carving Banquet?”
“The purpose of the Thousand Buddha Carving Banquet should be a sacrifice, through which… to awaken the Temple God? Specifically, how is it operated?”
Li Che glanced around, feeling the Spirit Infant Wood Carvings seemingly flowing with various emotions, which inevitably caused irritation and anger.
[Pure Heart] Dao Fruit, pure white Divinity surged out, calming and peaceful.
Suppressing the urge to destroy these Spirit Infant Wood Carvings because Li Qingshan had said that these carvings worshipped the Temple God and had developed a special connection with it.
If destroyed, even if just one Spirit Infant Wood Carving, the Temple God would sense it and subsequently awaken.
With an unknown Temple God, Li Che was still somewhat wary, unwilling to confront it lightly.
He only wanted to quietly absorb the Temple God’s Divinity, and as for fighting the Temple God, he had no such intention.
He let out a breath.
Li Che glanced at the Three-Eyes Wrathful True Monarch Spirit Child placed on the altar.
Smiling, with the Bull Demon mask on, Li Che leaped onto the altar, standing firm and unshaken.
Looking at the patina-covered head of the Temple God Wood Carving, Li Che reached out his hand.
His palm suddenly turned jade-colored, as if thin jade-colored mist was entwining around his arm.
It looked like it was carved out of jade, delicate and splendid.
Boom!!!
A powerful siphoning force erupted from the Thousand Analyzing Hands, beginning to absorb the Divinity contained within the Temple God Wood Carving.
One by one, dark Divinity Chess Pieces slowly floated around Li Che.
Emanating dark streams of air.
The Temple God Wood Carving, seated high on the altar, seemed to express an increasingly intense fury, much like a child whose treasures had been snatched away.
The vertical eye on its forehead almost seemed angrily twisting.
Unfortunately, it was always slightly insufficient.
Li Che concentrated, and as the [Dragon Elephant Vajra] Dao Fruit entered LV3, the siphoning power of the Thousand Analyzing Hands seemed to strengthen as well.
The speed of absorbing Divinity grew faster and faster!
Originally, in one session of two hours, he could only absorb half a Temple God Divinity Chess Piece.
Now… Li Che condensed one in half an hour.
One after another, black-aired chess pieces floated, two each hour, and four pieces floated around him.
Together with the previously condensed pieces, there were a total of nine Temple God Divinity Chess Pieces.
Perhaps feeling somewhat unfinished, when Li Che was about to absorb the ninth Temple God Chess Piece.
The robust siphoning power of the Thousand Analyzing Hands erupted…
But…
Li Che’s eyes narrowed in astonishment, as he didn’t absorb any Divinity.
The Temple God seemed… to have been drained by him!
Not that… this could even be drained?
However, soon, Li Che felt the Temple God Wood Carving burst forth with an extremely scorching sensation.
He saw, the covered head of the Temple God Wood Carving, the third vertical eye on it…
Its eyeball peculiarly began to roll around.
“Snap!”
Suddenly,
One hand of the Three-Eyed Wrathful True Lord Lingying Temple God Wood Carving suddenly snapped up, fiercely grabbing Li Che’s patina-covered palm on his head.
Rumble—
Outside the Mysterious Temple, it seemed as if thunder rumbled in winter and lightning snakes slivered.
Inside the Mysterious Temple, all the candles flickered violently, casting twisted shadows of the Spirit Infant Wood Carvings, as if thousands of fierce ghosts were dancing wildly.
The atmosphere seemed to chill in an instant.
Between heaven and earth, there was a moment of silence.
It seemed one could only hear the beat of the heart within the chest, like thunder and resonating like a great bell.
But none of these mattered… What mattered was, Li Che felt a scorching current flowing from the Temple God Wood Carving into the Thousand Analyzing Hands.
The Thousand Analyzing Hands’ jade color flowed.
Information passed through the Thousand Analyzing Hands into Li Che’s mind, slowly unfolding.
