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

Chapter 1487: Chapter 399: Daughter Ends Childhood Phase and Obtains Immortal Seed, Safely Reaches Age 7 Dao Fruit Ten Thousand Demon Emperor

Unyielding and fierce, as if the void before it were no more resistant than tofu.

This left Li Che astounded, yet puzzled by the metamorphosis of the Dao Tree, manifesting such bizarre changes!

And as the transformation concluded, the Dao Tree underwent another monumental change beyond what Li Che had initially observed.

It grew taller, more terrifying!

Buzzing——

Countless leaves rustled with a clattering sound.

At first, Li Che paid it no mind, but gradually, his heart began to quake violently.

Because, the rustling collision of these leaves seemed to be murmuring softly.

Boom——

A roaring explosion opened beside Li Che’s ears.

Before his eyes, a dense stream of light began to weave rapidly.

It was a panel prompt, as if delivering the murmuring sound of the Dao Tree.

[Bond subject’s toddler stage safely completed, school age begins]

...

[Name: Li Che]

[Bond: Li Nuanxi (daughter)]

[Progress: School age (seven years old)]

[Tip: For each year of safe growth of the bond subject, the Dao Tree can bear one Dao Fruit]

...

Li Che’s eyes sparkled brightly, his breath quickening involuntarily.

He saw on the Dao Tree, each of the multi-colored Dao Fruits began to sway wildly, producing crisp ringing sounds.

Suddenly——

A leaf, from among the multi-colored leaves of the Dao Tree, dropped a gem the size of a thumb.

Surveying the entire Dao Tree, Li Che noticed that these multi-colored leaves were quite sparse.

The multi-colored gem dropped from the leaves drifted gracefully before Li Che, slowly radiating a brilliance.

Li Che reached out, taking the multi-colored gem, but realized it was not a gem at all, but a seed resembling a pea.

In his mind, it was as if a loud bell tolled explosively.

In an instant, Li Che understood that this multi-colored seed was a reward for his daughter safely transitioning from her toddler stage to school age!

This was a reward?

Li Che was momentarily stunned, wondering if this meant that as Xi Xi continued to grow, and crossed each important growth stage, there would always be a reward?

Adolescence, adulthood?

But this was just Li Che’s speculation, because if Xi Xi were to grow to a hundred years old, two hundred years...

A thousand years, two thousand years...

What would such growth stages be like?

Li Che’s turbulent emotions gradually calmed as his gaze fell upon the multi-colored seed, which suddenly transformed into a stream of light, entering Li Che’s body.

[Immortal Seed·Qilin Suppression Seal]

Golden light flickered across Li Che’s view.

Subsequently, information flowed out like a babbling brook, filling his mind swiftly.

”Immortal Seed?!”

Li Che’s eyes involuntarily brightened slightly.

His heart became fervent, yet because he was currently in the unique Dao Tree Space, he decided not to delve further.

Li Che looked up, and as Xi Xi stepped into a new age category, with the Dao Tree swaying and descending the Immortal Seed reward, it finally began birthing the eighth Dao Fruit!

Xi Xi, seven years old, the eighth Dao Fruit!

The Dao Fruit drifted downward.

In the next moment, countless scenes flashed before Li Che’s eyes, like a cavalcade, dreamlike.

It was a year when Xi Xi was seven, filled with numerous experiences, with the most scenes being Xi Xi participating in the Flat Peach Victory Meeting, competing with many Chulong, and finally winning the title of Chulong Leader, followed by scenes of Xi Xi returning to the Divine Sect and striving with more diligence than any Divine Child for cultivation.

The conviction to become stronger, to protect her parents, made Li Che beam with pride.

Buzzing——

The eighth Dao Fruit, colorful as glazed glass, floated into Li Che’s hand.

Reflecting brilliance, dreamlike.

A slight curve formed at the corner of Li Che’s lips.

A year of guardianship, the Dao Fruit finally borne.

My daughter Xi Xi, seven years old!

The eighth Dao Fruit!

...

[Your daughter is seven years old, brimming with combat power, Chulong Leader, harboring exploration, safely growing, obtaining the Dao Fruit ”Emperor of Ten Thousand Demons”]

...

A colorful mist, floating and diffusing in a dreamlike fashion, gradually piled up and converged, forming interwoven, dreamlike words.

Li Che’s pupils opened slightly, his heart pounding.

The eighth Dao Fruit, unexpected!

Emperor of Ten Thousand Demons?!

Li Che was a bit bewildered; he truly had not anticipated this, not even the slightest clue.

Was this leading him toward demon transformation?

Demon...

Li Che was well aware that within the eerie Strange Temple’s Strange Que existed many demons.

According to the books Fang Han Shu once showed Li Che, descriptions of demons were singular: animals of heaven and earth, obtaining divinity’s baptism, awakening intelligence, and receiving the Temple God’s Dharma in the Mysterious Temple, successfully cultivating, thus becoming demons!

Just like the Mystic Turtle, the Great Supervising Minister’s steed that Li Che saw in the Octagonal Tiered Eaves Drip Sky Observatory Treasure Tower in the Divine Capital, was part of the Demon Race.

The Dragon God Lineage could also be considered the Demon Race.

And in the Deceit Que Heaven and Earth, within the All Gods Camp, there is also a [Deceit Demon Cave] camp, meaning whether in the human world or in the Deceit Que Heaven and Earth, the Demon Race... is a towering and formidable group.

Buzz——

Just as Li Che pondered the characteristics of the ”Emperor of Ten Thousand Demons” Dao Fruit.

A powerful repelling force erupted, and Li Che felt the world spinning around him, finding himself suddenly back in the Elder Court.

Thump, thump, thump——

Within his chest, the eighth Dao Fruit [Emperor of Ten Thousand Demons] pulsated gently.

However, compared to other Dao Fruits such as Dragon Elephant Vajra or Immortal Artisan at the lv6 Rank, this fresh, tender Dao Fruit appeared quite weak.
