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

Chapter 279 Daughter 4 Years Old Achieves Dao Fruit [Fairy in the Painting], Xi Xiʼs Birthday Canʼt Go On Without You, Old Chen

The cold air condensed the moisture in the sky, accumulating into drifting snowflakes that fell.

Golden Light Prefecture City.

Falling Flower Alley, Workshop Courtyard.

Li Che sat cross-legged in the courtyard, tilting his face upward, allowing the snowflakes to land on his cheeks.

The scorching heat of his blood coursed rapidly beneath his skin, the emitted warmth instantly melting the snowflakes into water.

”My Xi Xi, sheʼs four years old now.”

Four years old already...

Time flies so fast. Just a blink ago, she was a tiny baby in a swaddle, and now she has turned four, a lively little girl bouncing around.

Li Cheʼs eyelids slightly drooped, his lips unconsciously curving into a smile.

Watching his daughter grow up safely and gradually.

As a father, he felt an inexplicable sense of pride and joy.

Since Xi Xi was born on a snowy day, the falling snowflakes signified that her birthday was fast approaching.

Today was Xi Xiʼs fourth birthday.

At the age of four for Xi Xi, it also meant that the fifth Dao Fruit should appear.

He wasnʼt in a hurry, gently closing his eyes, calmly waiting.

Meanwhile, he summed up his cultivation up until now.

Within the Inner Scene of the Energy Center, eight Divine Bases floated, each shimmering with light, their formidable divinity roaring like a tempestuous storm, continually emerging.

The Seven Emotions Divinity had all been forged into Divine Bases by him, seven rounds of Divine Bases...

The challenge was not small. The repulsion among them was incredibly terrifying, and had his Pure Heart Divinity not also been forged into a Divine Base, serving to isolate and shield them from one another,

the collision and conflict of divinity among the seven Divine Bases could easily have dazzled Li Che, making them uncontrollable.

Once the Pure Heart Divinity was removed, the mixed Seven Emotions Divinity would be like seven different colored yarns tangled together, making it impossible to cut or manage.

This meant that as of now, his Divine Cultivation, viewed at the highest level of Divine Base Cultivation, belonged to the Middle Realm of Divine Foundation.

The Divine Base he cultivated was of the Six Offices level, ”Uneasy Fearless Golden Heavenly King.”

Based on the ”Xuansi Liu Sword” Divine Base he originally cultivated from the Fei Lei Xu Family, it was an overlaid same-nature Divine Base.

This was also the main Divine Base that Li Che intended to cultivate next, striving to perfect the Divine Base to the level of envisioning the Divine Likeness.

Every half a year, he could enter the Golden Temple to observe the Statue of the Heavenly King, which was the best opportunity to practice the Heavenly King Divine Likeness.

”My talent in the path of divinity is quite ordinary. Although I have many Divine Crystals aiding my cultivation, the pace of advancement in Divine Cultivation is still slow.”

Li Che shook his head slightly, feeling somewhat resigned.

The ”Dragon Elephant Vajra” enhanced his talent in the Martial Path through Horizontal Refinement, making him a martial arts prodigy, unmatched in this aspect.

Indeed, the Martial Path had not betrayed this Dao Fruit; he had reached the realm of a Furnace Grandmaster.

And he had mastered three Ultimate Skills of True Intent. One of them was his own creation, the Dragon Elephant True Force, which could integrate the true intent of other Ultimate Skills within it.

The second was passed on by Li Qingshan, a Top-notch Skill from the Golden Light Branch of the Qian Yuan Divine Sect, ”Eight Flood Dragons Overturning the Rivers!”

The third was acquired from the Inferior Absolute Learning of the Shangguan Noble Family, ”Pale Thunder Body!”

Upon reaching the Grandmaster Realm, besides similarly forging the physique, the next step was to refine the internal organs!

Incorporating True Intent into the organs, making them resilient and tough, cultivating both externally and internally, flawless and leak-proof, one could then aim for the Great Grandmaster level!

And True Intent can only be born from Jue Xue, hence, those at Grandmaster Realm generally focus on cultivating one Ultimate Skill!

Similarly entering Initial, Minor Accomplishment, Major Accomplishment, Master, and Transformation Realm, cultivating one Ultimate Skill to a Master Realm generates True Intent, and at the Transformation Realm, True Intent can transform into its True Form!

The combination of Martial Arts True Intent and the power of the Divine Likeness is extremely formidable!

This is also the realm where many Diviner Ancestors of Golden Light Prefecture City reside.

Most of them have steeped in the Martial Path for long years, slowly refining an Ultimate Skill to the Transformation Realm with time.

But that is about it. To break through to the Great Grandmaster level, having one skill reach the state of True Form is far from sufficient.

The True Form of Martial Path is merely a basic requirement for becoming a Great Grandmaster.

”The path of martial arts is long and arduous...” Li Che exhaled slowly.

He was now at the Initial Realm of Grandmaster, just beginning to forge his internal organs, and it might take several more years to advance to the Great Grandmaster level.

As for cultivating Ultimate Skills, Li Che was not worried. With his notable talent, by gradually practicing, he could always reach True Form!

And what kind of power could the Dragon Elephant True Force, integrated with many True Forms, possibly transform into?

Li Che couldnʼt help feeling some anticipation and curiosity. Your adventure continues at empire

For this Ultimate Skill, originally springing from the ”Dragon Elephant Vajra” Dao Fruit and created by himself, Li Che held great expectations.

His mind stirred.

Glittering light appeared before his eyes.

...

[Name: Li Che]

[Bonds: Li Nuanxi (Daughter)]

[Dao Fruits: Immortal Artisan (lv3,88%), Dragon Elephant Vajra (lv3,55%), Pure Heart (LV3,15%), Chess Saint (LV3,10%)]

[Prototype of Divine Powers: Immortal Worker: Thousand Analyzing Hands, Dragon Elephant Vajra - Ascend, Pure Heart - Soul Capturing]

[Reminder: Each year that your bonded person grows up safely, one Dao Fruit can be formed on the Dao Tree]

...

The long-missed panel appeared before his eyes.

The cultivation was stable and peaceful, and the overall improvement was not minor. The maturity of the ”Immortal Artisan” Dao Fruit had reached 88% of lv3, very close to lv4.

Recently, he had made five ”Dragon Tooth Bodhis,” carving spiraling lines on them that could accelerate the gathering of divine power.

Enhancing the bulletsʼ penetrating power and the burst of divinity they carried, making them even more powerful!

But just that was not enough to increase the maturity of Immortal Artisan.

And making ordinary Divine Wood Carvings did very little to raise the level of Immortal Artisan, unless he entered the Mysterious Temple to observe the Temple God, capturing the Temple God Divinity into the wood carvings; only such carvings could hasten the advancement of Immortal Artisan.
