As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality

Li Che had only recently achieved the rank of Second-Class Guest Official, so Lu Yao found it hard to imagine Li Che winning.

The difficulty was just too great.

Gongshu Jing Jun did not say much; he approached the entrance of the Mysterious Temple.

With a mighty clap of his palms, a powerful Divine Sense transformed into a sharp long knife, ferociously slashing down!

A tearing sound...

The Mysterious Fog surrounding the Mysterious Temple of the Five Elders Rank instantly parted like a slowly drawn stage curtain, opening to both sides.

The cascading Mysterious Fog tumbled to the ground in relentless waves!

"Esteemed Masters, please enter."

"After setting foot inside, you will directly enter the Strange Que. Inside the Strange Que, masters from the Divine Sect and the Temple Control Bureau have already suppressed the Temple Guardian Cursed Corpses and the Evil Spirits contaminated with Divinity..."

"Becoming an Elder of Divine Carving Ridge... not only requires exquisite Divine Sculpture Skill but also considerable Combat Power."

"With the majority of the Temple Guardian Cursed Corpses and Evil Spirits suppressed, if you can't even reach the Mysterious Temple... then if you can't become an Elder, there's no need to feel aggrieved."

"Moreover, within the Strange Que, there are well-hidden Spiritual Wood... The quality of Spiritual Wood can be good or bad, and as Masters, you should be aware of the impact of Spiritual Wood on the quality of Divine Wood Carvings."

"Therefore, securing good Spiritual Wood... is also a test."

This was, in fact, an established convention.

However, Gongshu Jing Jun probably said this intentionally for Li Che to hear.

Li Che's eyes narrowed.

"Enter the Strange Que?"

"To find the Mysterious Temple... from within the Strange Que?"

Li Che took a deep breath.

This must be his first time entering the Strange Que, right?

And right into the Mysterious Temple's Strange Que of the Five Elders Rank.

The Strange Que is a unique domain created by the densest Divinity of the Mysterious Temple, similar to a realm, nurturing many Temple Guardian Cursed Corpses, Evil Spirits, and so on...

That is the most dangerous place within the Mysterious Temple.

Li Che had not expected that he would enter the Mysterious Temple in such a manner.

"Don't worry, inside the Strange Que, the formidable Temple Guardian Cursed Corpses and Evil Spirits have been blocked and suppressed by strong figures... the threat is not that great."

"If you encounter a Temple Guardian Cursed Corpse that you cannot withstand, just shout forfeit directly,"

Gongshu Jing Jun's gaze swept over, explaining.

"But still, within the Strange Que, you must act according to your abilities."

"Do you still have doubts?"

Gongshu Jing Jun's cloth robe fluttered in the cold wind.

Li Che shook his head and returned the gesture with a cupped fist.

Then, Gongshu Jing Jun lightly tapped his toes and, together with another elder in plain clothes next to him, shot into the Strange Que.

Su Huaiming, Zhou Tianshui, and Yun Haiyang, the three Divine Sculpture Masters, exchanged glances. A clash of wills in their eyes, the next moment their vital energy burst forth, and they swept towards the Strange Que in succession.

The Mysterious Fog churned like breaking waves, engulfing their forms.

The other Woodcarving Masters also raced forward, plunging into the Mysterious Fog.

The three Woodcarving Masters who had ridden in the same carriage as Li Che felt somewhat awkward at the moment.

They had not expected the Master of the Divine Carving Ridge to be so courteous to a junior like Li Che.

They didn't even know that Li Che was a Second-rank Astronomical Observatory Woodcarving Master, a position much higher than theirs.

"Master Li... please?"

An elderly Woodcarving Master smiled and said.

Li Che reciprocated with a gentle smile.

The next moment, he took a step forward with a firm pace, neither hurried nor slow, stepping into the curtain torn by the wind and snow.

Boom!

Inner Scene of the Energy Center!

The Spiritually Bright Real Ape of the Heaven and Earth Law stood upright, pounding its chest and roaring!

...

...

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh

The cold wind howled like knives, within the Divine Sect Mountain Gate, Trace Snow fluttered!

Up the rugged mountain path, a luxurious carriage swayed on, crushing the thick layer of snow beneath.

Nie Yang wore a bamboo hat, clutching the reins, while Li Chengzhou sat beside him, holding the broken sword, imitating Nie Yang's posture.

As Nie Yang drove the carriage, a flick of his fingers sent a searing and blazing Sword Qi roaring out, splitting the snow ahead!

The carriage advanced along the mountain path like this, cutting through the snow.

Inside the carriage.

Xi Xi blinked her big eyes, sitting obediently.

Jiao Shaoqiu's face was slightly pale, constantly coughing, his whole spirit seemed somewhat wilted.

Even the light in his eyes appeared much dimmer.

"Grandpa Zhang, are you okay?" Xi Xi's long eyelashes trembled as she asked with concern.

She worried that Grandpa Zhang might have been injured while shielding her from Ji Hai Hui's mother's pressure.

"Don't worry, grandpa isn't hurt, it's not related to you, just an old ailment..."

Jiao Shaoqiu looked at Xi Xi, his eyes softening.

He ruffled Xi Xi's hair: "Don't worry, Grandpa Zhang might not be as powerful as before, but I will try to find you a strong backer..."

"That Princess Consort won't be able to bully you."

Xi Xi smiled and patted her chest: "Grandpa Zhang doesn't need to worry, Xi Xi has Master Niu Niu, who is very powerful! He can protect Xi Xi!"

"And there's the Divine Monkey Master, Master Horse Face... they're all very powerful."

Xi Xi counted on her fingers, listing them out.

Jiao Shaoqiu chuckled; he knew that the Underworld supported Xi Xi.

The Underworld now had quite a reputation in Qianyuan Taoist City, but it had utterly angered the Su Family. Now, with You Liqing and the Hunting God Pavilion joining hands against the Underworld, even if the Underworld indeed had strength, it was currently overwhelmed and how could it protect Xi Xi.

Inside the carriage, there was also Tie Shancai, who had shamelessly insisted on following along.
