As a father, I just want to watch you live forever...

Chapter 648 The Closed Loop of Fate: The Netherworld Saves Itself, Splits Through the Flesh Ball, and the Third Prince Qitian Returns to His Position [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

The clarion call for the Hell Lotus faction's counterattack!
The horn will sound eventually!

Unlike the previous divine tides, the Prison Lotus faction in this divine tide is no longer an object to be slaughtered at will!

Both Taiyi Immortal and Tongtian God Emperor could feel a sense of oppression emanating from the Prison Lotus camp.

That was the oppressive feeling emanating from Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, or perhaps the father of the Hell Lotus Maiden.

Although Li Che's strength is still considerably inferior to that of these Emperor-level Celestial Immortals...

But what's terrifying is its frighteningly rapid growth rate!

How long has it been? The father of the Hell Lotus has grown from an ordinary mortal into someone who can enter the Netherworld, cut down the Hellfire Divine Tree, a high-ranking divine tree, and then retire after achieving his goal!
It’s unimaginable!
Even the Heavenly God Emperor and the Taiyi Immortal himself could not guarantee that they could enter the Netherworld and escape unscathed!

The dangers in the netherworld are enough to overturn the entire heavens and earth.

Otherwise, why would Nuwa and the Tongtian God Emperor go to such lengths to suppress the Netherworld?

Not allowing the very essence of the netherworld to seep into the heavens and the earth.

"The Prison Lotus camp... is ultimately just a meaningless resistance, just like every incarnation of the Divine Tide back then. Struggling... is futile, and failure is its destiny."

Taiyi Immortal's eyes were deep and profound.

Taiyi's immortal words elicited a soft sneer from the Tongtian God Emperor.

"Is it?"

Do you think Yu Lian will still fail?

"I don't think so."

"I think Yu Lian might succeed. Under Li Che's leadership, she can break through the encirclement and the blockade of the three major god camps."

The Heavenly Emperor sat atop the Netherworld Gate, with countless sword energies floating and cascading around him like an inverted waterfall, an absolutely breathtaking and dreamlike sight.

Taiyi Immortal gave Tongtian God Emperor a strange look.

"Tongtian, you've made me doubt your allegiance. You are the God Emperor of the Dark Heavenly Court, so why have you chosen to stand with the Prison Lotus faction?"

The Heavenly Emperor burst into laughter.

"One divine tide after another, endlessly turning, no force can remain strong forever, just like the three ancient clans of yesteryear: the Ancestral Dragon lineage, the Ancient Human lineage, and the Ancient Demon lineage represented by your Taiyi Ancient Village."

"The three of you were once the most powerful forces in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, suppressing the three major god camps, but what about now? Things have changed... The Ancestral Dragon lineage has become a thing of the past, completely destroyed."

"The three ancestral dragons betrayed the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and joined the Netherworld!"

The Heavenly Emperor said in a deep voice.

"So... even if I am the God Emperor of the Dark Heavenly Court, I may not be able to stop the decline and decay of the Dark Heavenly Court."

Taiyi's immortal body slowly disappeared into the void.

"Perhaps you are right..."

"The three major god factions are indeed slowly decaying, but they are still using the Hell Lotus faction as executioners, intending to use their blades to slaughter our ancient native villages in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths..."

"We will not accept our fate!"

After Taiyi the Immortal finished speaking, his entire body completely disappeared into the void, as if he were riding on the chaotic currents of the void and instantly disappearing into the distance.

The Heavenly Emperor sat alone above the Endless Sea.

He sighed softly.

"Fate, who can escape fate?"

"The ancient races, the three major god factions, or even the Hell Lotus faction are all merely objects to be toyed with by fate."

"The ultimate beneficiary..."

"Perhaps only the will of heaven and earth can save us."

……

……

boom--! ! !
Li Che carried Dog Master in his arms as they crossed the endless sea.

This time, he acted with impunity, and even the immortal beings of the great lands, who sensed his presence, dared not come to stop him.

Li Che's infamous reputation had already spread throughout the land.

This is a ruthless person who personally killed an immortal!

What shocked many immortals even more was the rumor that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva Li Che had entered the Netherworld...

That was a place that even Emperor-level Immortals dared not venture into, yet Li Che not only went there, but also returned safely.

This time, Li Che entered the Prison Lotus Land without encountering any obstruction from the Heavenly Immortals.

He arrived outside the cliff of Yuan Leitian and soon saw the Three-Eyed True Monarch who was in charge. The Three-Eyed True Monarch also sensed Li Che's arrival and cast his gaze over him.

The Three-Eyed True Monarch, burning his very essence, possessed an extremely powerful aura, like a radiant sun shining with golden light, blocking the boundary barrier and becoming the first line of defense for the Prison Lotus Land.

"came back?"

The Three-Eyed True Lord was quite surprised that Li Che had returned so early.

Moreover, he sensed a unique change in Li Che.

Li Che's martial spirit has become even stronger!

Without a doubt, Li Che has become stronger again, and has made another breakthrough in the path of martial immortality.

The Three-Eyed True Monarch's gaze was very complicated. In fact, having reached this level on the path of martial immortality, no one could guide Li Che anymore.

The path to becoming a celestial being is different for everyone.

Now, Li Che has to figure out which path to take himself and try it out.

Even if one dies in the end, it is a destiny predetermined by fate.

"Thank you for your hard work, senior."

Li Che clasped his hands in a fist salute.

The Three-Eyed True Monarch waved his hand: "Go, I can hold on for a while longer, but only until my essence is completely burned out..."

"The three major god factions will no longer sit idly by and watch you grow stronger in the Hell Lotus Land. They will definitely launch a joint attack. At that time... you will have to shoulder the burden yourselves."

The Three-Eyed True Lord said.

"My body is buried in the mortal realm, on Peach Mountain. If you want to find my body, you must return to the mortal realm..."

"But for you now, returning to the human world is not an easy thing."

The Three-Eyed True Lord said.

Upon hearing this, Li Che also fell silent.

Indeed, to revive the Three-Eyed True Lord, Li Che needs to obtain the Three-Eyed True Lord's corpse. However, the Three-Eyed True Lord in the present is not his true form, but rather a form condensed from the burning of his origin, which is the state of a burning temple god.

When the temple god burns out its essence, it truly dies.

Now that Li Che has broken through to become a Martial Immortal, returning to the mortal realm is no longer an easy task.

In addition, the amount of killing he committed was too terrible.

Many immortal beings have died at his hands, and the immortal karma he carries is enough to block his path back to the mortal realm.

unless……

Li Che understood that unless he could break through to the Martial Immortal realm...

Becoming a supreme being who truly stands at the pinnacle of martial arts allows one to wash away all karma and easily return to the mortal realm without incurring the wrath of heaven and earth.

At that time, even if the will of heaven and earth targets them, they will be able to withstand it with their own powerful cultivation.

Li Che didn't say much, but clasped his hands in a gesture of respect.

“Go, go and revive Qi Tian and the Third Prince. If they can be revived to their peak condition, they will surely become the pillars of the Prison Lotus Land.”

“Yu Lian needs them.”

The Three-Eyed True Lord slowly closed his eyes; all three of his eyes were closed.

The howling dog lying beside him glanced at the dog in Li Che's arms, but didn't make any further moves, and closed its eyes along with its master.

Li Che exhaled, tore open the boundary barrier, and returned to the Prison Lotus Land like a shooting star.

From leaving the Hell Lotus Land to returning, I experienced many battles.

It also completed the creation of the world on the third day.

The martial arts cultivation has improved, and time has passed, which is not short, but rather quite some time.

Of course, compared to the long lifespans of many gods in the heavens and earth, these days are but a fleeting moment and nothing at all.

Rumbling--

When Li Che returned, the sky above the Prison Lotus Land seemed to change and tremble.

With the successful opening of the Prison Lotus Land's original heaven, Li Che has become the master of the Prison Lotus Land, his will almost representing the will of heaven and earth.

With his return, the entire Hell Lotus Land rejoiced.

The gods and cultivators living within the Hell Lotus Land all understood that Li Che had returned, and their pillar of support had returned.

hum-

Li Che transformed into a stream of light and landed on the side of the Prison Lotus Tomb Pool.

A gentle breeze stirred, rippling the surface of the Lotus Tomb Pond, creating waves that rippled endlessly.

The owner was watering the plants; the water from the watering can flowed in arcs, irrigating the ordinary flowers.

These are lives nurtured within the Hell Lotus Ground; they possess no supernatural properties, they are just ordinary flowers and plants.

"came back?"

"Pretty fast... Entering the Netherworld, but what did we encounter?"

The owner continued watering, asking questions as he did so.

"The Netherworld... is very powerful. Are they going to attack the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths? The Abyss of Hell... does it have any connection with Master Dog?" Li Che asked, narrowing his eyes.

The owner paused for a moment while watering the plants.

He lifted the kettle, letting the water flow back into it, and glanced at Li Che indifferently.

"In fact, everything in the world is a huge circle, or rather, a spinning top."

"Being whipped and spun by an invisible force."

"The ancient race once suppressed the three major god factions, the three major god factions suppressed the Hell Lotus Land, and the Hell Lotus Land, imbued with the will of heaven and earth, gave birth to the Hell Lotus Daughter, who then suppressed the ancient race..."

"Actually, there are invisible forces driving things behind the scenes. You might think it's those Emperor-level Immortals standing at the top..."

"But perhaps even these Emperor-level Celestial Immortals themselves don't realize that they are being driven by an invisible force and scheming against each other."

"They are all trapped in the closed loop of fate, spinning in this top."

The boss said calmly, his voice deep.

However, Li Che vaguely understood some of the meaning behind the words. "As for Youming... he is also trapped in a closed loop of fate, only it is a larger closed loop. You will understand later."

The boss stretched and said, "They want to invade the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, to devour the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths... In reality, they are just trying to save themselves."

The boss's words made Li Che's mind buzz.

In his view, the overall strength of the Netherworld is actually greater than that of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

But the boss said that the Netherworld was also trying to save itself...

The Netherworld is also trapped in a closed loop. Who is behind the Netherworld, or what force is pulling the Netherworld along?

Could what the boss said be true?

A storm raged in Li Che's heart.

Each complete closed loop, each spinning top, is like an invisible hand manipulating it.

Li Che slowly exhaled.

No further questions were asked.

"Want something to eat?"

the boss asked.

"Then... I'll have a bowl of noodles."

Upon hearing this, Li Che didn't mince words.

jingle.

The wind chimes hanging on the restaurant's door frame were turned, making a tinkling sound.

The boss went into the kitchen to start making noodles.

……

……

After finishing his noodles, Li Che sat in a chair, smoking a cigarette rolled by the shop owner. The smoke curled up and seemed to swirl in the air.

He stared at the still surface of the pool, a slight tremor running through his heart.

He could sense that Xi Xi's aura in the pool was growing stronger and stronger, reaching a terrifying level!

The daughter of the Hell Lotus may be about to undergo a complete transformation!

However, this generation's Hell Lotus Daughter ultimately failed to receive the amplification of the will of heaven and earth, although with the help of the inheritance of Hell Lotus Daughters from generation to generation, she mastered the Hell Lotus Curse.

However, there will always be some gap between her and the peak of the Hell Lotus Maiden.

The peak Hell Lotus Maiden should possess combat power at the level of a Royal-level Heavenly Immortal. With the blessing of the will of heaven and earth, she would not be considered weak even among Royal-level Heavenly Immortals.

However, the blessing of the will of heaven and earth is not eternal. When the destiny carried by the daughter of the prison lotus is fulfilled, the power of the blessing of the will of heaven and earth will be taken away.

At that time, the daughter of the Hell Lotus will simply transform into an ordinary Heavenly Immortal.

After all, the Heavenly Immortal was created by the will of Heaven and Earth, so how could it be a match for those established Emperor-level beings?

Therefore, the fate of all the Hell Lotus Maidens throughout history... was only to perish.

“My daughter…in the end, followed the same path as all the previous daughters of the Hell Lotus.”

"Moreover, without the blessing of the will of heaven and earth, it is not as good as its peak condition."

Li Che took a deep breath.

"Therefore, I must become stronger, because only when I am truly strong as a father can I truly protect my daughter!"

boom--

Li Che's mind was slightly shaken.

The next moment, a ball of flesh appeared.

This is precisely the divine fleshy ball nurtured and cultivated with Huangjian wine as its spirit.

The Third Prince's will is slowly reviving within him.

Qi Tian's will was also being nurtured within it.

Now, what Li Che needs to do is awaken their will.

Li Che stood up, his back suddenly expanding, his spine seemingly transforming into a real dragon, roaring angrily.

The Hellish Heavenly Armor and the Third Prince's Battle Armor burst forth and soared into the sky.

On Li Che's back, three acupoints of the Immortal Martial Arts School opened, swirling and surging with boundless qi and blood like a tidal wave.

Of course, Li Che did not intend to use his own blood and energy to nurture them.

Instead, it draws upon the primordial power obtained from the creation of heaven and earth within the acupoints of the Immortal Martial Arts School.

Rumbling--

The origin of the Prison Lotus Land, the origin of the Primordial Thunder Heaven, and the origin of the Divine Craft Heaven...

The three fundamental sources surged forth with a roar, seemingly endless.

They intertwined and surged into the divine flesh ball, causing it to begin to devour them frantically.

It's like a massive influx of resources, constantly pouring in, trying to burst it open.

Huang Jianjiu also sat cross-legged, entering a frenzied state of cultivation, rapidly absorbing and refining the source energy generously offered by Li Che.

The source transforms into the energy that fuels the growth of the divine flesh ball.

One fleshy ball started bouncing around, while another fleshy ball seemed to turn into stone.

Both hovered above the Hell Lotus Pond, as if they were drawing the waters of the pond.

The owner sat in front of the restaurant, with his dog lying next to him.

The man and his dog watched this astonishing scene, a look of amazement flashing in their eyes.

"It actually worked! Moreover, they even carved the Hellfire Divine Wood taken from the depths of Hell into mechanical armor."

"This kid... he's a real variable."

The boss said.

"The biggest fear with spinning tops, or closed-loop systems, is variables. Even a tiny variable can cause the top to lose its balance and stop spinning very quickly. The closed loop will collapse and break apart, making it impossible to close."

The boss slowly exhaled a breath, his face expressionless.

"but……"

"Once this variable is discovered, it may be met with a terrifying force that will try to smooth it out."

……

Boom——!
The sky above the Hell Lotus Land trembled incessantly.

Li Che mainly activated the essence of the Prison Lotus Land, frantically channeling and releasing its essence into the three divine fleshy orbs.

Li Che stood there, like a god or demon at the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth, opening his acupoints, drawing on the origin, and creating gods!
dong dong dong-

A fleshy ball began to vibrate rapidly, and its surface began to bulge out strangely, as if an infant was kicking and thrashing inside, trying to tear the fleshy ball's skin.

The blood-red fleshy ball resembled a spiritual pearl, its surface covered with strange ancient runes.

That was an ancient talisman formed by Li Che using his primordial power, and it was also the fundamental source for enhancing and restoring the Third Prince's power.

"Third Prince, return to your position!"

Li Che spoke in a deep voice.

"open!"

Suddenly.

A shout rang out from within the ball of flesh.

The constantly rotating fleshy runes on the surface seemed to converge and transform into a sharp longsword.

The Eight Talismans Blade of Heaven and Earth!

The blade sliced ​​through from the inside, and instantly, a cut appeared on the surface of the fleshy ball.

As the knife marks continued to expand.

An incomparably powerful soul was born from it, and a figure sculpted from flesh and blood, naked, rose into the sky.

"Hahaha! I'm back!"

The Third Prince laughed loudly, looking up at the sky.

As soon as he was born, his gaze fell on the Hellfire Armor that Li Che had prepared for him. With a thought, the armor, carved from Hellfire Divine Wood, burst forth with blazing hellfire and shot towards him at great speed.

The armor covering his body gradually gave his small frame a heroic aura, like that of a war god!
The powerful aura rose steadily, and in an instant, it returned to the peak that the Third Prince had once been at. However, this was not the limit, and it was even rushing towards the peak of the Heavenly Immortal!

The Hellfire Divine Wood Armor, plus a powerful soul restored by countless resources!
The Third Prince has recovered to his peak condition!
Even further!
"scold!"

The Third Prince's words were like thunderclaps.

The next moment, it began to transform into a Dharma body, with eight arms and three heads. All eight arms were covered with hell armor, and all three heads were covered with masks!
His aura tore through the barrier in one fell swoop, reaching the Emperor level!
Li Che's constantly tense heart broke through to the Emperor level with the help of the resurrected soul of the Third Prince and the Hellfire Divine Wood Eight Talisman Battle Armor.

My whole body relaxed slightly.

The Hell Lotus Land finally has a true royal-level combatant of its own!
It completely fills the gap in royal-level combat power!

Even among all the divine tides throughout history, only the Third Prince during the first divine tide might have reached the Emperor level, but as the will of heaven and earth was extracted, the Third Prince fell from the Emperor level.

And now...

The Third Prince, reborn from a ball of minced flesh, once again reaches the Emperor-level realm!

A smile appeared on Li Che's lips.

More than that……

This is not enough!

His gaze shifted, looking towards the direction where Qi Tian's soul had transformed into a stone.

But then, the stone formed from the divine flesh ball cracked, a fissure twisted and spread, and then an arm emerged.

Li Che's gaze was intense.

With a flick of a finger.

In the void.

The Hellish Armor, engulfed in hellfire, brightened up.

They stepped toward the constantly cracking stone.

Li Che clenched his fist, grasped the Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand, twisted his waist as if throwing a golden thunderbolt, and hurled the Ruyi Jingu Bang out.

"Qi Tian, ​​return to your positions!"
