...

...

Outside the Divine Carving Ridge.

Space twisted violently, as if a blade mark appeared, slowly releasing an overwhelming surge of black Qi from the rend.

The fissure was torn open, supporting the formation of a portal.

One towering figure after another, resembling obsidian with strange patterns blooming upon their surfaces, stepped out from within.

They were none other than the Demigod Corpses of the Corpse God Cult.

Their scarlet eyes turned, gazing toward the direction of the Divine Carving Ridge, where thick, stacked layers of black clouds roiled. Within the clouds, lightning flickered and interwove.

”This anomaly... it seems the Heart-following Gold Iron Divine Rod of the Two-Minded Great Sage is about to be unearthed.”

”The Cult Master has commanded that we must obtain this Heart-following Gold Iron Divine Rod. Only then can we locate that entity in Qi Tian City...”

”The Heavenly Corpse!”

Leading the group was a Demigod Corpse whose obsidian body bore two blooming, eerie patterns.

Behind it were two more Demigod Corpses, each with a single strange pattern etched upon their obsidian forms.

”Furthermore, the Underworld seems to have been tracking our whereabouts recently... However, the Underworld should have no knowledge of the Corpse God Realm of our Cult. Hidden within the Corpse God Realm, severed from the outside world, they cannot detect us.”

”The Underworld... can only stew in their frustration.”

A calm voice resonated.

”It likely stems from the day I smashed Yellow Sword Wine ten times, stirring up some suspicions.”

The dual-patterned Demigod Corpse spoke coolly.

”No matter. The Underworld doesnʼt need to concern us. Their methods are strange, indeed... even after Yellow Sword Wine died ten times, he still managed to survive...”

”This Underworld, emerging from who-knows-where, is even more sinister than our Corpse God Cult.”

The gaze of the dual-patterned Demigod Corpse grew icy and distant.

”The Qian Yuan Divine Sect cannot monopolize the Heart-following Gold Iron Divine Rod. The Grand Prospect Dynasty will surely not allow it... The Dynasty, plagued by internal strife and external threats, desperately needs the legacy of Equal Heaven Temple as a lifeline.”

”On the other hand, Lv Taibai has recently taken Li Nuanxi as his final direct disciple and established her as the Divine Sectʼs Young Sect Master, inheriting the sectʼs fate and the Dao Yun of the Qianyuan Ancestor Master...”

”This, as of now, can be seen as a weak spot for the Divine Sect.”

”The Hunting God Pavilionʼs bounty board in the Qianyuan Dao City lists her as third. If Li Nuanxi were killed, one could claim the bounty of a Four Imperial Divine Crystal. A mere junior at the Grandmaster Divine Foundation level, and yet sheʼs worth a Four Imperial Divine Crystal.”

”Even I... canʼt help but consider donning the Star Mask of the Hunting God Pavilion.”

The Demigod Corpse licked its lips uncontrollably.

The identities of the Hunting God Pavilion assassins were myriad, and unless they perished and their mask was removed, no one could discern their true selves.

The Star Masks, crafted by the Pavilion Master of the Hunting God Pavilion—the Divine Weapon Saint Hand—were renowned.

These masks, exquisite creations among the Five Eldersʼ Divine Weapons, could even suppress and alter the Death Qi and Corpse Qi emanating from the bodies of Demigod Corpses.

Rumors held that Hunter King Masks were of even higher grade.

Unfortunately, with his status, he could not obtain a Hunter King Mask...

The Hunting Kings of the Pavilion...

The Demigod Corpseʼs eyes flickered. Even with the alteration of aura provided by the Hunter King Mask, in reality...

They were but figures standing at the pinnacle of existence.

”Forget it. Letʼs not alert anyone. With Li Nuanxi ranking third on the bounty list, the allure of profit will inevitably draw action from others...”

”Moreover, it will create some trouble for Lv Taibai, allowing us the room to make a move for the Heart-following Gold Iron Divine Rod.”

...

...

Li Che teleported himself to the Two-Minded Great Sageʼs Mysterious Temple using the Flying Thunder Chess Piece.

This unexpectedly drew the attention of many factions.

At the moment, his heart was entirely immersed in the thrill of forging the Shen Yuan Golden Elixir.

The divinity exuded by the Heaven and Earth Spirit Bright True Ape Divine Image liquefied into a grand sphere of Divine Essence, then solidified, refining itself into the Shen Yuan Golden Elixir!

Rumble——!

A streak of lightning twisted explosively, striking down at the templeʼs sky above the Two-Minded Great Sageʼs Mysterious Temple in an instant.

The endless mysterious fog seemed to detonate, rippling outward in expanding waves.

Within the eerie temple.

The Golden Core hovered behind Li Che, his eyes aglow. Within his chest, the [Lei-Ci Dao Body] was triggered, and his entire being transformed into a figure of electrifying brilliance, colliding headfirst with the tribulation thunder.

The terrifying reverberation of shockwaves refined his physical body.

This Shen Yuan Golden Elixir tribulation was just the tempering opportunity Li Che needed for his Lei-Ci Dao Body!

Delighted beyond measure, he hadnʼt anticipated that this path would also serve to refine his Lei-Ci Dao Body.

Thinking of how he still had the Seven Emotions Divine Phase and the Six Desires Divine Phase that could be condensed into Golden Cores to summon further tribulations...

He could endure being struck by lightning dozens of times...

He was absolutely thrilled!

However, Li Che restrained his excitement, as not all Shen Yuan Golden Elixirs could summon a tribulation...

The tribulation lightning came only once, vanishing without a trace after striking.

Li Che glanced at the maturity level of his Lei-Ci Dao Body.

[Dao Fruit: Lei-Ci Dao Body (lv2, 30%)]

Its improvement was indeed significant!

The speed of progress was far greater than anticipated, akin to catching a bolt of spring thunder to temper his physique.

If he won the bet with the Sect Masterʼs Wife, and with the power of the Small Divine Sky Five Thunder Shocking Killing Talisman, his Lei-Ci Dao Body should quickly reach lv3, achieving a transformation and gaining the prototype of divine powers.

At this thought, Li Che couldnʼt help but feel exhilarated, even looking forward to being struck by lightning.

Time ticked by steadily.

In the following days, Li Che immersed himself in stabilizing his Divine Cultivation.

After the Heaven and Earth Spirit Bright True Ape Divine Image forged the first Shen Yuan Golden Elixir, a wisp of white Qi coiled around it.

As time passed, Li Che forged a second Shen Yuan Golden Elixir, using the Six Desires Evil Slayer Lv Xuan Sword Immortal Divine Image.

This time, black Qi wrapped around the Lv Xuan Sword Immortal Shen Yuan Golden Elixir.

To his heartʼs content, Li Che endured another lightning strike, raising his Lei-Ci Dao Body maturity by another 10%, reaching 40%!
