As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

``` In the dark night, the campfire flickered. Li Che's eyes sparkled, his fingertips caressing an Immaculate Heart Chess Piece. "Chess player?" ... ... The Flood Dragon Horse's body flowed with the bloodline of the Jiao Dragon, belonging to the demon species. Therefore, in terms of pace, endurance, or speed, it far surpassed ordinary horses. Worrying about the possibility of the caravan encountering danger and attacks again, Jiao Shaoqiu urged the caravan to push the Flood Dragon Horse to its limits while traveling. Unknowingly, half a month had passed. With such hastened travel, the distance to Dao City region was drawing ever closer. And the closer they got to Dao City, the more solemn Jiao Shaoqiu became, because he knew, the nearer they were to Dao City, the more likely they were to encounter strong figures. Unity of Heaven and Man Grandmasters, Golden Body Transformation Divine Element True Persons, any of them might appear. The closer to their destination, the less they could afford to relax. Experienced hunters often strike when their prey lets down their guard. Inside the carriage. Li Che's five fingers grasped a Six Ministries Divinity Crystal, continuously absorbing the Divinity within it. Suddenly, Li Che furrowed his brow. A strong sense of threat flashed through his mind. That aura... A Unity of Heaven and Man Great Grandmaster! He lifted his hand, touching it to his brow. His spirit connected to the Heaven and Earth chessboard. As if within a radius of five hundred li, a pair of eyes suddenly snapped open! However... That intense feeling of threat vanished as quickly as it had appeared, leaving no trace. Li Che was left feeling like a befuddled monk, uncomprehending. "Gone?" "Showed their face and then ran off?" Li Che's brow furrowed, sensing the abrupt disappearance of the Innate Great Grandmaster's aura. For a moment, he felt puzzled; in his Heaven and Earth chessboard, any reveal of killing intent would be locked onto by him. Thus, if the other party were to appear again, Li Che would certainly notice. Holding his breath and concentrating, Li Che remained vigilant, investing his spirit into close surveillance. As he monitored, Li Che also divided his consciousness, immersing himself in cultivation. Inhale— Exhale— Li Che felt the Divinity between heaven and earth growing more majestic. Compared to when he first entered the Golden Light Prefecture region, the Divinity he sensed was even more abundant and agitated! This was because the number of Strange Temples within Dao City's range were far more than in Golden Light Prefecture. Golden Light Prefecture had a total of three Strange Temples, whereas in Dao City... not to mention those scattered Eight Extremes, Qi Yuan Strange Temples, just the Six Divisions Strange Temples alone there were ten, and three Five Elders Strange Temples... And there were also Four Royal Mysterious Temples! Some Strange Temples were indigenous, while others... were relocated by the Divine Fetus Great God with great skill, in order to suppress them more conveniently. Within the Inner Scene of the Energy Center at his brow, li Che's Divine Foundations pulsed excitedly, bursting forth with majestic Divinity; now that each Divine Foundation had reached Perfection, all that was missing was the Temple God taking its place. Because the Divine Foundation of Fear, summoning the Temple God, would behold the Divine Likeness... The other Divine Foundations seemed eager to try as well. However, Li Che's current main goal was still focused on the Pure Heart Divine Foundation. The Pure Heart Divine Foundation, integrated with the Divinity of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Bright True Ape, could summon the Temple God from Equal to Heaven's Face into the Divine Foundation. Once the imprinting was complete, Li Che could then allow the Pure Heart Divine Foundation to transform into a Divine Likeness. ... ... By the surging river. A figure stood still, holding a scroll, taking vanilla herbs from an incense bag at his waist, rolling them into a smoke, lighting it, then placing it between his lips. Inhale— Exhale— The young man in white clothes, holding the cigarette, exhaled a misty plume of smoke. Leaning against a large bluestone, basking in the breeze, he flicked a lock of black hair from his forehead. Glancing into the distance. "Almost got discovered by Old Li..." "Er Hei, you're slipping, your work's gotten sloppy, you're losing a meal." In the distant sky. River water burst into tumultuous waves, raging wildly, as several blood-covered Dragon Forms fell into them, torn apart beyond recognition. A ferocious black dog as large as a hill stood in the great river, its growls exploding like muffled thunder. Upon hearing that, it was filled with grief and indignation, biting off the head of a purple Dragon of the Dragon God Clan that exuded the aura of a Unity of Heaven and Man Great Grandmaster. With a fierce shake, it tore apart the Dragon Sinew, Dragon Bone. Afterwards, it swallowed it down irritably. Incidentally letting out a sated burp. The spray of Dragon Blood surged into the sky, then exploded. Falling like a blood rain. ```
