Chapter 1403: Chapter 382: Chess Saint’s Four Transformations, Dao Guide, Half-step ahead of Heaven—Who Stole the Palace’s Flat Peach [Monthly Ticket Requested]

In the intermittent gusts, it transformed into a gentle breeze, swaying between the Flat Peach Trees, serene and warm.

Li Che felt a murky sensation in his mind, as if something had sliced through his thoughts like a chess piece cut across them, the Brow Niwan…

It perceived like someone flicked his brow with their finger.

He felt a bit bewildered.

However, Li Che quickly pieced together the situation, furrowing his brow slightly, surprised that the skin of the Dao Fruit shed this time would actually transform into a chessboard…

A second chessboard?

Wouldn’t that overlap with the Heaven and Earth chessboard?

Li Che exhaled, his mind stirred.

In front of him, white light slowly emerged.

[Dao Fruit lv6, fourth transformation, Divine Skills (Limitless) promotion, Dao Guide (Half-step ahead of Heaven)]

Boom——!!!

The white light formed from the prompt continuously accumulated before his eyes.

Li Che felt like his eyes were completely sliced apart by the lines on the chessboard.

He sat cross-legged, his thoughts moved.

It seemed as though a chessboard spread beneath him, expanding constantly, in contrast with the unrestrained expansion of the Heaven and Earth chessboard, which could conceal its aura.

This chessboard gave Li Che a feeling…

It was somewhat similar to the “Divine Domain” Zhang Xuanyu exerted with all his strength and divinity.

As if transforming the surrounding area into a secluded domain.

Dao Guide!

A new Dao Guide!

Half-step ahead of Heaven!

Li Che’s breathing grew somewhat hurried; the name of this Dao Guide stirred him, with a hint of inexplicable excitement.

[Dao Guide (Half-step ahead of Heaven): Dao Fruit’s skin shed, to guide into the Dao, Half-step ahead of Heaven, all gods kneel to Heaven]

The Dao Guiding True Word, as if penned by an unparalleled presence, slowly emerged before Li Che’s eyes.

Li Che couldn’t help but furrow his brow.

All of a sudden, he was a bit bewildered, seemingly unable to understand the function of this Dao Guide?

Suddenly, another row of white light appeared before Li Che’s eyes.

[Half-step ahead of Heaven: Victory Over Heaven Dao Domain (Ten Feet)]

Ten feet range…

Li Che surveyed the chessboard beneath him.

Ten feet long and wide, interwoven.

Entirely different from the Heaven and Earth chessboard.

His eyes fluctuated; Li Che flicked his fingers, and Yue Huanglong’s Confining God Chess Piece instantly emerged.

To let Yue Huanglong help him study the newly acquired Dao Guide [Half-step ahead of Heaven], what exactly was the method of operation.

After researching for a while.

Li Che suddenly had a grasp of it in his heart.

“So that’s how it is… It truly resembles some of Zhang Xuanyu’s Divine Domain; within the ten-foot Victory Over Heaven Dao Domain, I triumph over Heaven, commanding half a step, like grasping Heavenly Might!”

Li Che laughed.

Within the ten-foot Victory Over Heaven Dao Domain, any cultivator stronger than Li Che will have their cultivation reversed, dropping to a level half a head lower than Li Che’s realm, maintaining for ten breaths of time.

It’s a realm rather than combat power…

Like Li Che currently, with Pure Martial Martial Way only at the Second Level Martial Saint Realm and drops to a level even lower than his…

Even Lv Taibai, Li Che can defeat with a single slap.

Moreover, Li Che can wield a sort of pressure, a Heavenly Might more terrifying than the Temple God Rank!

In the face of Heavenly Might, all gods kneel to me!

Of course, this Heavenly Might will gradually strengthen as the [Half-step ahead of Heaven] Dao Domain expands!

However, Li Che also perceives that if the target locked by Half-step ahead of Heaven has a cultivation realm far exceeding Li Che’s, it might render ineffective due to the short maintenance time…

For example, if Li Che were to lock onto the Great Supervising Minister, likely… it would fail.

The Great Supervising Minister, Li Che has already determined, is indeed a true Divine Tribulation Realm cultivator.

As for which realm of the Divine Tribulation they occupy, how many of the Three Calamities have been crossed, how many tribulations nullified, Li Che does not know.

“Half-step ahead of Heaven, ten-foot Dao Domain, should it be time to enhance the range of the Dao Domain?”

And at the instant Li Che harbored this thought.

The Victory Over Heaven Dao Domain beneath Li Che slightly trembled, then half a chess piece appeared before him.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——

Half a chess piece floated, emitting faint light.

Then, in the next moment——

Li Che only felt an incredibly terrifying pressure, as if the gaze of a true immortal from the Heavenly Dome descending, mere mortals dare not face, bending shoulder and spine in reverence!

The air seemed to collapse deeply at that moment, within ten feet, turning instantly into a vacuum region.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

Li Che felt as if his ears were ringing sharply.

That was because the pressure exceeded his limit.

“Whoosh, whoosh——”

Li Che gasped loudly.

His eyes revealed a look of doubt and suspicion.

He gazed at the half white chess piece floating in front of him, split into two, neatly cut.

Li Che reached out his hand, his five fingers spread wide, pressing down on that half white chess piece.

Qi-blood surged, divinity roared!

The Great Bodily Elixir trembled, the Mud Pill Divine Fetus roared!

Li Che suddenly exploded with power, veins extending across his arms like Jiao Longs, attempting to press down the white chess piece.

It seemed that as long as he pressed it down, the Victory Over Heaven Dao Domain beneath him could gradually expand its range.

Like pressing down a spring, the Dao Domain swelling.

However…

It seemed he could only utilize Li Che’s unamplified strength.

Li Che felt the inadequacy of strength, instinctively planning to trigger the Divine Seed…

But, as if locked, unable to activate the Divine Seed, like the connection to the Divine Seed was shielded and isolated.

That means Li Che must use his own pure physical strength, without gaining any amplifications.

“It seems, only with the enhancement of my Martial Path and Divine Cultivation, or the tempering and advancement of my physical body, can I press down the half chess piece, allowing the Victory Over Heaven Dao Domain to expand its range.”
