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

Chapter 1381: Chapter 377: Father’s Glory Is Xi Xi’s Glory, Three Pure Ones Qiankun Haori Kunlun Realm

Li Che’s hair stood on end.

Yet, witnessing the mystical Qi Gate Divine Sect’s Yue Huanglong’s Soul Capturing being directly pierced through by that beam of light, it was as if a hot knife sliced through butter, smoothly dividing it into two.

Yue Huanglong’s Soul Capturing was directly annihilated!

That is to say...

This beam of light actually possesses the power to gravely injure, even to slay someone at the top-level peak?!

Li Che’s expression slightly changed, a hint of astonishment appearing on his face.

However, the peach that Yue Huanglong had picked fell into Li Che’s hands, and although he held it aloft, it did not draw the attention of the beam of light.

Although Li Che was the culprit for acquiring the peach, Yue Huanglong’s Soul Capturing had paid the price of its life for him.

[Five Thousand Year Black Phoenix Spirit Peach]

Li Che grasped this peach, as large as two fists, fresh red and glistening, with white tender flesh, while the branches and leaves were black.

Holding up this peach, Li Che’s heart was jubilant.

An extremely strong attraction emanated from the peach, constantly tempting Li Che’s soul.

This was a bewitching power emitted by the peach itself, having little effect on the current Li Che.

Li Che did not consume the peach.

After all, he was still in the midst of the Heroic Victory Conference’s competition. If he accidentally ate a peach and forfeited his place, Li Che would have nowhere to cry.

To prevent any accidents, Li Che positioned his fingers like a sword, slicing open the Qiankun Space, and stored away the peach.

”If I use the Soul Capturing to trade for my life... could I pick the entire Immortal Peach Orchard empty?!”

Li Che’s eyes shone brightly.

Li Che comprehended.

”Is this the reward for being the first hero to ascend the Five-thousand-year-old Peach Forest?”

”To keep me from getting too bored while waiting for other heroes?”

Li Che laughed.

Stealing peaches?

No, he’s openly picking peaches!

The Heaven and Earth chessboard rumbled and trembled. Li Che once again locked onto a peach and hurried in that direction.

Gazing at the Five-thousand-year-old Chi Long Blood Peach hanging from the fruit tree, the rich essence qi spread out, comparable to a Four Imperial Middle Rank Heavenly Pill of excellent grade!

Li Che stood under the fruit tree, his mind slightly sensing.

His five fingers opened wide, and suddenly a divinity-woven restriction appeared on the peach tree, blocking Li Che from plucking the peaches.

”The limitation exists for me, and the second round of the Heroic Victory Conference has not yet started, so... I cannot pick them.”

However...

Employing the same strategy, Li Che once again flicked his fingers, summoning Yue Huanglong’s Soul Capturing.

This time, though, just as Yue Huanglong’s Soul Capturing appeared, it didn’t even have time to burn its fat before it was shot by the swiftly arriving beam, melting instantly...

Li Che couldn’t help but click his tongue in amazement and fear.

The speed of this beam is really too fast!

Even if it shone upon him, he probably couldn’t withstand it, right?

Feeling the light becoming more irritable, seemingly about to unleash its might.

Li Che abandoned the impulse to use the Soul Capturing to pluck this peach.

Because, in the depths of his mind, Li Che seemed to be able to perceive through Yue Huanglong’s Soul Capturing, a terrifyingly invisible locking aura.

”This aura...”

Li Che seemed to have thought of something, his eyes suddenly brightening.

He sat cross-legged, seizing the opportunity while no one had ascended to the Five-thousand-year-old Peach Forest yet, and opened his heart, treating it as a form of cultivation.

Submerging his spirit into the Heaven and Earth chessboard, a Soul Capturing Chess Piece emerged above the chessboard, precisely Yue Huanglong’s Soul Capturing Chess Piece, and at this moment, atop the pitch-black Soul Capturing Chess Piece...

A wisp of white, fiber-optic-like light slowly drew out.

Rumble——!!!

As the white light appeared, the Heaven and Earth chessboard shook violently.

The [Chess Saint] Dao Fruit within his chest was trembling incessantly.

As if a morning bell and evening drum had exploded, the sound waves echoed throughout every inch of Li Che’s flesh, bones, skin, and membranes!

Li Che, through the Heaven and Earth chessboard, began tracing the aura’s origin, slowly evolving...
