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

Xu You felt his heart being clenched by an invisible hand.

He even faintly perceived, as if he saw an ancient and dilapidated temple that had burst through green bricks, sprouting forth, within which resided a Spirit Baby raging in extreme fury, its wide eyes bulging, and suddenly a vertical eye on its forehead snapped open, with the Spirit Baby\'s mouth following suit, emitting a silent screech!

Thereafter.

Countless Divinities, like snakes, burrowed into Xu You\'s body.

...

...

Thud

Thud

The ancient bell sounds, like the ancient temple\'s evening bell struck after three thousand years of tides rising and falling.

The torrents of time, the dust of years, all frothed in the sound of the bell.

A figure with a hunched back, wearing a cat face mask and carrying an unremarkable Ram Horn Hammer at his waist, gracefully leaped over the tall walls of Fei Lei City.

He stepped onto the green brick pavement of the Outer City.

The entire city plunged into a stillness akin to death, while the heavens roiled with dark clouds, thunder roaring, lightning snakes intertwining.

Under the cat face mask, a pair of eyes squinted slightly.

"Quite decisive. If you were any slower, I wouldn\'t have entertained you..."

A faint voice emanated from beneath the mask.

Cao Guang also precisely seized the opportunity, immediately commencing the ritual, acquiring power.

"Three-eyed Wrathful True Lord Lingying Bizarre Temple..."

"The Ten Capitals Mysterious Temple."

"You, Cao Guang, conduct the \'Thousand Buddha Carving Banquet,\' using the lives and blood of a thousand Spirit Babies as a sacrifice, to elevate this Strange Temple to the Nine Luminaries Level..."

"A Temple God at the Nine Luminaries Level..."

"I truly am quite intrigued."

"Temple Gods are deemed invincible within their realm; any god within the same realm can crush a Cultivator of Divinity of the same level. To slay a Temple God of the same realm, at least five Cultivators of the same level are needed to carry out the divine execution." ʀ₳

"I... am keen to test, whether a single Ram Horn Sky-breaking Hammer could hammer a Temple God to death!"

Boom, boom, boom!

Thunder roared deafeningly, illuminating the oppressively dark sky instantly.

The storm hastened, snow and ice plummeted down as if the heavens raged, countless raindrops and hailstones ferociously pelted down upon the human world!

Li Qingshan, wearing the cat face mask, swayed lightly, like a straight arrow blasting forth, splashing a white wave amidst the curtain of rain, drilling straight toward the Inner City!

A few quick bounces, and he had already charged through the Outer City, darting into the Inner City.

That lightning-fast speed left the city guards stupefied, unable to react!

Hiding?

Concealing?

The expression beneath Li Qingshan\'s mask was filled with scoffing.

He, at this moment, needed not...

The weak need to hide, to conceal.

The strong... once they have a reason, what they need to do...

Is to plow through everything!

The Thousand Buddha Carving Banquet, in reality... should be called the Thousand Infants Carving Banquet!

Using the lives of a thousand Spirit Babies as a sacrifice, to awaken the Temple God, to feed the Temple God!

Monsters!

Deserving of death!

Boom!

Li Qingshan stomped down heavily, his entire body vibrated with tension, his spine suddenly straightening; a hot blood qi that seemed to evaporate everything wrapped around him like a Jiao Long, roaring in fury.

This is the vitality of a Grandmaster, released without reservation; from the five viscera to the spinal dragon, as if tempered by a thousand hammers.

The domineering and scorching True Qi sprayed out around his body!

From afar, over a dozen guards who had received Cao Guang\'s early orders, possessing Blood Exchange cultivation, charged towards him howling, their long blades quivering, shattering raindrops.

However, Li Qingsong did not even spare them a glance, casually flicked his finger, and the Ram Horn Hammer at his waist whistled out, spinning ferociously.

Bang, bang, bang!

Dozens of blood flowers burst open within the veil of rain; over a dozen Blood Exchange Warriors didn\'t even get the chance to resist before their skulls were crushed by the hammer, transforming into cold corpses.

With a clasp of his five fingers, there was a snap—the Ram Horn Hammer was gripped by the cat-faced elder.

Above the hammerhead, fresh blood mixed with rainwater dripped down.

His footsteps advanced slowly as if parting the curtain of rain in two.

Unstoppable!

...

...

Outside Xu\'s Courtyard.

Li Che stood atop the rockery, his presence blending seamlessly with the world around him, completely undetectable.

His eyes shone like lightning, clearly seeing the scene within the hall.

The wine consumed by Xu You was unmistakably drugged, a potion that sent Xu You into a stupor.

Since it didn\'t pose a threat to life, Divine Chess Piece did not issue a warning.

Therefore, Li Che did not take action immediately, wanting to understand just what the Xu Family People were up to.

Why would they strike against Xu You?

Next, he saw Xu Nanming reveal the display filled with hundreds of various Spirit Infant Wood Carvings by pulling off a cloth.

"Xu Ji, too, plans to have a share in the Thousand Buddha Carving Banquet..."

"Indeed, they had all silently consented for City Lord\'s Mansion to take away the Spirit Baby."

The expression beneath Li Che\'s Cute Bull Mask was icy cold, devoid of emotion.

Perhaps at first, Xu Ji still held the objective of resisting the Spirit Infant Sect, but in the end... they chose to collaborate, offering up the Spirit Baby.

Those Spirit Babies... how innocent?

Barely born and simply because they possessed great talent, they became the objects over which these powers calculated against each other.

Their life and death hung by a thread of their thoughts.

Li Che cast his gaze downward, and couldn\'t help but think of Xi Xi; if he had not obtained the Dao Fruit...

What would have become of Xi Xi?

Probably just like those captured and sacrificed Spirit Babies, no doubt.

The rain falling from the heavens was exceedingly cold and piercing to the bone.

When Li Che stood atop the rockery and saw a large iron cauldron set up in the hall, with boiling water bubbling and various herbs being tossed into it...

He saw Xu Heli, trembling as he walked towards the unconscious Xu You with a gleaming Bone-picking Knife in hand...

The eyes beneath Li Che\'s Bull Demon Mask suddenly displayed a hint of astonishment.

"Truly... they\'ve gone mad."

"Noble Families, the man-eating Noble Families, this cannibalistic world."

Li Che shook his head, inhaling the chilling air, and murmured softly.

In the next moment, the burly figure atop the rockery blurred and twisted, then vanished without a trace.

Inside the hall.

He was squinting his eyes, leaning on a cane, staring at Xu Heli who was shivering with each step he took towards Xu You.

All of a sudden, his face changed drastically.

"Who?!"

His squinting eyes suddenly bulged wide!

However, he found that inside the hall, within the darkness of a corner just ten steps away... at some unknown time, a figure wearing a Cute Cow Mask had emerged, breaking through the darkness.

With a "buzz-thump," it was as if blood-colored silk ribbons were entwining around the body.

The stature of Grandpa Bull Demon suddenly swelled, growing layer upon layer!

His back presented an inverted triangle, and the powerful, dragon-like sinews vibrated ceaselessly, as if enraged pythons were roaring!

"Your Grandpa Bull Demon has come to kill—!"

A roaring bellow of seething fury, accompanied by a fast and fierce whistling!

The Gilded Blood Thorn Spear, like a bolt of blood-red lightning, appeared out of nowhere.

Leaping forward ten steps in an instant.

Launching a sneak attack!

Thump—!

In an instant, the Shocking Spear pierced through the Heavenly Spirit Cover of Old Master Xu.

It impaled his entire body, pinning him to the ground!
