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

Chapter 1279: Chapter 357: Immortal Artisan’s Fourth Shedding—Divine Skills Advance to Daoist Ghost Axe, Dao Yun’s Heavenly Secrets Reveal the Killer Bull Demon [Monthly Ticket Request]

As the saying goes, every trade has its expert.

Anyone referred to as a Saint Hand must have mastered their craft to an astonishing degree!

Such individuals are extremely rare!

Today, the Divine Sculpture carved by Li Che reached the peak of a Half-Saint Divine Sculpture, just a breath away from being a Divine Sculpture Master…

Yet that last step is truly challenging.

It has trapped many Half-Saint Divine Sculptors!

Many Half-Saint Divine Sculptors spend years honing their skills to perfection, carving Half-Saint Divine Sculptures.

However, striving to go even further, breaking the peak’s shackle to enter the realm of a Saint Hand…

That one may never achieve in a lifetime.

Perhaps one’s limit is set, no matter how early or late, one will eventually be stopped there.

“Let’s give it a try… what if it succeeds?”

Li Che offered a gentle smile.

“Then I wish that Guest Official Li truly breaks the peak’s shackle of a Half-Saint and steps into the realm of a Saint Hand… to have our Great Vista add another Divine Sculpture Master!”

“And to fill the long-vacant position of the Divine Sculpture Grand Minister at the Qintian Observatory headquarters!”

Yue Taofu smiled warmly offering his wishes.

The current Great Vista only has four Divine Sculpture Masters in total, far fewer than the top-level peak numbers.

Huang Mei and Yellow Dragon from the Little Lingyin Temple, the two Divine Sculpture Masters, uphold the sculpture endeavors of Little Lingyin Temple, spanning the Great Scenery Eleven Paths.

Next, the Dragon Tiger Divine Sect’s Divine Sculpture Master Zhao Gongming from Shendu Dao and Ji Yuan Saint from the Ji Family, each holds one position.

That’s it.

Even at the headquarters of Qintian Observatory, no Divine Sculpture Master resides.

Above the thirteen Special Class Guest Ministers are three Grand Ministers.

They represent the three divine vocations: Divine Weapon, Divine Pill, and Divine Talisman.

Each vocation comprises only one Grand Minister.

Originally, Qintian Observatory had a Divine Sculpture Grand Minister, but after this Grand Minister perished within the Mysterious Temple, the position has remained vacant.

The status of the Divine Sculpture Grand Minister surpasses each Dao City Supervisor, higher than Special Class Guest Ministers, second only to Deputy Inspectors Yue Taofu and Fang Shangzhen.

If Li Che truly becomes a Divine Sculpture Master, with his identity as a Special Class Guest Minister, he requires no evaluation and can directly be invited by the Chief Supervisor to become the Grand Minister of Qintian Observatory!

“Vice Director Fang, guide Guest Official Li to familiarize thoroughly with the Qintian Observatory Treasure Building, and also arrange a cultivation house for Guest Official Li.”

The Chief Supervisor commanded.

Fang Shangzhen bowed: “Understood.”

The Chief Supervisor looked at Li Che: “Guest Official Li, now that you have become one of Qintian Observatory’s thirteen Special Class Guest Ministers, this Heavenly Order is presented to you…”

“With this Special Class Heavenly Order, you may bring one person to traverse freely through Shendu, except for the First City.”

“No one will dare obstruct you.”

The Chief Supervisor said, and in the next moment, with a flick of his wide sleeve, a profound silver token flew swiftly and fell into Li Che’s palm.

On the token are inscribed the words “Special Class.”

“Holding this token, your status is akin to a Dao City Supervisor.”

“Purchasing resources at Qintian Observatory, you enjoy a fifty percent discount, and monthly you may acquire one Four Imperial Lower Divine Crystal, including exclusive access to a cultivation house, isolated from heaven and earth, and no one can spy on your cultivation, not even me.”

The Chief Supervisor’s double-pupil divine light was exceedingly bright, even the white mist couldn’t completely mask it.

Li Che was visibly stirred by the Chief Supervisor’s mention of the cultivation house, instantly piqued with great curiosity.

“The cultivation house allows you to bring one and only one person inside for cultivation; exceeding two will be against regulations, resulting in the suspension of the cultivation house privilege.”

Stated the Chief Supervisor, calmly.

“Moreover, the Special Class Heavenly Order, similar to the Prince’s Sky Order, allows me to deduce and calculate once…”

“Should Guest Official Li have anything needing calculation, carrying the order, you may seek me.”

Once the Chief Supervisor finished speaking, his figure instantaneously burst into white mist and vanished.

Inside the entire Ninth Layer, only the Mystic Turtle remained.

The Mystic Turtle glared at Li Che with resentment and a warning look as if saying, young man, by no means spread the Divine Sculpture!

Otherwise, Turtle Turtle won’t be pleased!

After the Chief Supervisor departed, the Mystic Turtle huffed, then collapsed onto the ground, his body swelling once more, almost filling the entire Ninth Layer.

Its meaning was clear, issuing the order for guests to leave!

Li Che gazed at the incomparably large Xuan Turtle Demon King, squinting, contemplating whether to tempt the Mystic Turtle with some Pure Heart Divinity.

But ultimately decided against it.

No rush, it would seem desperate, there’s plenty of time in the future, dear Turtle Turtle.

The group departed from the Ninth Layer.

Fang Shangzhen, meanwhile, acquainted Li Che with the Qintian Observatory Treasure Building.

“Within this octagonal double-eave water tower, the most coveted feature is the cultivation house.”

Fang Shangzhen smiled in introduction.

“Oh? Cultivation house? Is it configured with Divine Talisman Array inside like a cultivation room?”

Li Che asked curiously.

In his perception, a cultivation room should be like that.

Fang Shangzhen shook his head, looking at Li Che, with the white daoist robe fluttering around her, she raised her hand, the wide sleeve sliding down revealing her fair wrist, gesturing towards the top of the Treasure Tower.

“Have you noticed the treasure bead that is surrounded by eight dragons?”

“That treasure bead was brought back by the Chief Supervisor from the depths of Strange Que…”

“It connects to the cultivation house; once inside the cultivation house, the treasure bead can detect the divinity within you… subsequently, capturing and passing divinity from the heavens into the cultivation house, the concentration of divinity is comparable to a Four Imperial Middle Position Divine Crystal, and it also spares the process of refining Divine Crystals.”

Li Che’s eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this.

Such a thing exists in this world?!

However, regrettably, Fang Shangzhen mentioned the arrangement of the cultivation house requires three days.

Li Che wasn’t hurried, under Fang Shangzhen’s guidance, he continued touring through the Qintian Observatory Treasure Building.
