Rumble—

The entire Spirit Mountain Island was trembling, giving off a feeling that the earth was cracking and the mountains were collapsing.

Li Che’s jet-black hair whipped wildly as he clasped his hands behind his back; like a cannon shell, he tore apart the billowing dust and shot up to the Spirit Mountain Peak.

Tuoba Long stared, dumbfounded, and couldn’t help the admiration that flashed in his eyes.

His heart was violently shaken—just where did this brother Mo Che come from, how could there be such a monster?

So overwhelmingly forceful, with not the slightest trace of reverence toward the Immortal Gods in his heart.

Those are Immortal Gods—within the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, beings standing at the absolute summit. Even an Earth Immortal definitely isn’t someone a Path-Cutting cultivator can provoke!

Yet Li Che was provoking them anyway!

Not only did he cut down the One Slash Realm God of Black Sumeru, he even shouted "I will not bow to the immortal, I’ve come to demand debt from the immortal!"

It was tyrannical to an absurd degree!

In these Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, how can there be such a badass God Spirit!

Tuoba Long’s heart surged, his thoughts galloping!

Of course, what shocked him the most...

Was still that peerlessly stunning strike from ten thousand zhang up in the sky, cleaving downward—directly cutting apart the One Slash Divine who had stirred the Immortal Power within a quasi-immortal artifact, exploding him on the spot with that terrifying blade.

"Heaven and Earth Slash!"

"So damn domineering..."

Tuoba Long drew in a deep breath, stirred and full of yearning.

That was the image he had in his mind of himself when battling others.

Sadly, every time Tuoba Long fought... he was a mess, not domineering at all.

Thunderstorm flashes bloomed to the extreme!

That was the Thunderball under three thousandfold extreme compression; when the Thunderball detonated, countless bolts of lightning flashed, laden with terrifying rending power.

The One Slash God of Black Sumeru had his physical body shattered, blown into pieces.

The shattered blood and flesh were naturally collected by Li Che.

And as for those Fusion Gods he had previously blasted apart, Li Che hadn’t let them go either, collecting all their blood and flesh.

As long as there is blood and flesh, it can be used for Soul Capturing.

Even if he doesn’t need these particular Deities for Soul Capturing, their flesh can be used to feed and empower other Soul Capturings.

Once the Soul Capturings grow strong enough, they can become Li Che’s support.

The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are far, far more dangerous than the Human World.

Facing such danger, all Li Che can do is keep strengthening his own foundation.

If he can cultivate a single Immortal Soul Capturing...

That would share a great portion of the burden.

However, wanting to cultivate an Immortal Soul Capturing is naturally not so easy; for Soul Capturings to advance across realms, the difficulty is actually immense.

Since Tuoba Long was watching—this guy was down below yelling "awesome"—Li Che couldn’t very well perform Soul Capturing right in front of him.

Anyway, he’d already collected all the blood and flesh; he could handle the Soul Capturing later.

His Five Fingers clenched; the Divine Dragon Spear used by that Path-Cutting God Spirit shuddered, then, with a howl, shot into the sky and fell into Li Che’s hand.

In the instant he gripped it, it was as if he felt the True Dragon Will within the spear!

Contained within was a terrifying Dragon Soul Will!

That was the will of a True Dragon; this Dragon Spear was a Quasi-immortal Artifact, forged from the Dragon Bone of a Half-step Ancestor Dragon’s spine, of extremely high quality.

As Li Che grasped the spear, the qi-blood within his body seemed to be stirred and drawn forth.

In his chest cavity, the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit quaked ceaselessly, throbbing without rest, Dao Fruit aura seemingly seeping out, as if rousing this Dragon Spear.

"Dragon Elephant Vajra—this spear... actually fits me better."

Li Che held the Quasi-immortal Artifact at a slant.

The Immortal Will within had already been ground away by the Heaven and Earth Chopper; Li Che now had complete control over this Quasi-immortal Artifact.

He lifted his head high, his jet-black hair like a waterfall, streaming backward.

He smashed through the descending, oppressive streams of air atop Spirit Mountain; perhaps because he had slain a Path-Cutting Realm Deity, he had enraged the Immortal Will.

The pressure within the entire Spirit Mountain Cave Heaven suddenly spiked.

Countless currents of air seemed to take on physical form, streaming down endlessly, slamming viciously against Li Che’s body.

Crack, crack—his bones rang out together; his powerful Physical Body feared no such pressure.

The great dragon on his spine roared in rage, and the Dragon Spear in his hand howled long, as if he had transformed into a defiant Angry Dragon!

The entire Spirit Mountain Cave Heaven was in upheaval!

...

...

On the Seventh Island.

The many Divine Children who had been cultivating all felt an extreme oppression, unable to continue, and halted their cultivation one after another.

The Bitter Sea was surging with earth-shaking waves, the tide pounding in relentlessly.

Xi Xi stood up, the Wind Fire Wheel beneath her feet spinning, gazing excitedly into the distance.

The terrifying ripples of battle kept transmitting over; Xi Xi’s Heart no longer had the mood for cultivation, her whole Heart hanging on the battle far away.

Roughly after the great battle subsided and things returned to calm—

They saw Buddha Light erupting from Spirit Mountain, earth-shaking and heaven-rending!

"Look! Teacher’s starting to climb the mountain!"

Yun Lei was excited too, his face flushed as he shouted in agitation.

In his hands he still hefted the Immortal Mechanism Gatling Li Che had given him, and he loved this mechanism dearly.

If he could raise its firepower, Yun Lei even felt he could Kill a Deity!

Yunhuang was comparatively calmer; she was, after all, a bit more mature than Yun Lei, but her eyes were slightly blazing as well, looking on with worship and worry.

"Such blazing Buddha Light... how can it be this dense?"

Yunhuang said worriedly.

"It seems... it seems the Immortal Will atop Spirit Mountain has been provoked and fully awakened!"

Compared to Yunhuang and Yun Lei, Tuoba Li and Tuoba Xiu from Earth Village had broader experience.

Xi Xi, Yunhuang, and Yun Lei were limited by their birth, so their knowledge was much lacking.

They hadn’t recognized Spirit Mountain’s current condition!

"Immortal Will?!"

"What the hell? Mr. Mo Che took the Divine Treasure Order up to exchange resources, and the Immortal’s not allowing it?"
