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

Chapter 1600: Chapter 423: Dao Fruit 5th Transformation Tribulation, Primordial Dragon Elephant Flame; Emperor Xi Xi at Age 7 Seeks to Slay a Martial Saint

The familiar space, the Dao Tree was incredibly mysterious, rising straight into the clouds, as if it could pierce through the layers of clouds at any moment!

The branches were luxuriantly growing, with leaves like scales.

The familiar space, the familiar Dao Tree, yet even though it was familiar, its reappearance and re-exploration still brought endless shock. Could such a plant truly exist between heaven and earth?

Li Che’s gaze swept across, and he immediately saw the [Dragon Elephant Vajra] hanging on the Dao Tree, much larger than the other Dao Fruits.

The Dao Fruit was radiating a vast glow, swaying gently.

Li Che was curious, what changes would this Dao Fruit transformation bring this time?

Last time, with the lv6 transformation, the Dao Fruit shed its peel and birthed the Dao Guide, extremely mystical, from which Li Che greatly benefited.

And this time?

He had no clue, it was impossible to guess.

Li Che chose not to guess, simply waiting for the feedback from the Dao Fruit.

Boom——!!!

Suddenly.

The [Dragon Elephant Vajra] Dao Fruit hanging on the Dao Tree unexpectedly exploded with boundless glow with a ”boom”!

That glow was vast and soon enveloped Li Che’s heart and mind.

Following this...

Li Che felt the scene before his eyes begin to distort and change.

It was as if his entire being was floating towards immortality, yet also falling into an endless void, drifting aimlessly.

The seven-colored glaze brilliance continuously swirled around him.

Before him, a scene slowly unfolded as if he were truly within it.

In the scene.

There seemed to be a long river constantly surging, roaring and rumbling, flowing through the boundless dark space, struggling to uphold the light.

And on that long river, there stood a figure, facing the endless darkness, howling fiercely!

Li Che’s pupils shrank slightly, as if he were observing from beyond heaven and earth, seeing that figure bursting with an immense and terrifying blood energy, in every inch of which there seemed to be the shape of Dragon Elephants roaring; in every pore, every acupoint, every cell seemed to contain a Dragon Elephant!

The entire person was like an ultimately terrifying fierce beast!

And that figure stood on the long river, its body small, yet it evoked a feeling more terrifying than the heavens and earth.

The powerful blood energy intertwined with a frenzy, transforming into ribbons after ribbons of energy, whipping through heaven and earth, lashing the darkness and void into endless bursts!

What is that...

Li Che’s eyes narrowed slightly.

As strong as his current Martial Immortal Golden Body was, it seemed to tremble slightly at this moment, an oppression emanating from the origin, impacting all levels of power and spirit!

Boom——!!!

Suddenly.

The figure standing on what seemed like the Tianhe suddenly opened its eyes.

The extremely brilliant golden light, as if it spanned the heavens, void, and cosmic primordial, rushed forth grandiosely, colliding with Li Che’s prying gaze.

”You... who are you?”

”A latecomer? So... I perished after all.”

”Nine Dao Fruit Transformations, ultimately unattainable...”

Rumble!!!

The three sentences, as if collapsing ten thousand feet of the void!

Like a boundless storm fiercely sweeping away and annihilating everything!

As if, mortals should not hear the divine sounds.

In an instant, Li Che’s heart and spirit withdrew from the scene, even exiting the vast Dao Tree space.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh——

With deep gasps, Li Che’s eyes widened, pupils constricted into tiny particles.

Burning, scorching, a terrifying power like red refinement seemed about to melt down his five internal organs, every bone and every cell of flesh and blood.

The Martial Immortal Golden Body at this moment, was enduring an oppression akin to detonating eight Qimen Divine Seeds.

Skin, blood, acupoints, meridians, bones...

Every inch was bursting with boundless pain!

Yet Li Che kept his eyes wide open, his eyes still betraying an extreme shock and bewilderment.

”That person... was that person the previous wielder of the Dragon Elephant Dao Fruit?”

”Wait, was it the wielder of the Dragon Elephant Dao Fruit, or the cultivator of the Dao Tree?”

Li Che’s heart surged with turbulent waves, not because of the opponent’s overwhelming strength, but because...

Though it was just a fleeting glimpse, he sensed the aura of Dao Fruit from the other.

That scene might have been a residual image from time’s long river.

And the other, might have been the previous master of the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit?

The Master of Dao Fruit?!

The other seemed to have transformed the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit to its utmost, every action imbued with the power to destroy the heavens and earth.

Such a formidable being...

Truly awe-inspiring!

But Li Che was more taken aback by... the words the other uttered, resonating like the divine sounds of a deity’s chant.

Nine Dao Fruit Transformations, ultimately unattainable?

Which means...

The Dao Fruit... has nine transformations?

And even such a being couldn’t complete them?!

So, this mighty being failed and perished?!

And with him slowly cultivating the Dao Fruit to transform, is he retracing the path of this Master of Dao Fruit?

”No... no, that’s not right... he had only one Dao Fruit, I have... many...”

Li Che felt somewhat confused.

The bond between the Dao Fruit, Dao Tree, and his daughter seemed to hide an unfathomable secret.

In Mo City.

The rain poured down like columns.

Li Che stood in Mo City, with each breath deep and robust like that of a fierce beast; he calmed his emotions, stretching his body. With the energy from the Dao Fruit transformation, his transmuted physical body burst with terrifying power, air currents raging around him, his jet-black hair snapping with explosive sound!
