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

Upon the long street.

Zhao Xuanhai's corpse was blocked off, inaccessible to the bystanders.

The government office had already sent people, the constables in black overcoats covered the body with a white cloth and dispersed the onlookers.

In the distance, in a quiet corner, a steed neighed and snorted hot breath.

Inside the carriage compartment.

Xu Heli and Xu Beihu sat respectfully, facing them was the Divine Base Wood Carving of their ancestor.

The palm-sized Divine Base Wood Carving filled the two Xu brothers with immense piety and respect.

"Elder Grandfather, that Li Che… is he really no problem?"

Xu Heli frowned slightly with some uncertainty as he asked.

He still felt that there was something odd about Li Che, a feeling that belonged to his intuition.

"The old one has checked, there's no problem…"

"Bull Demon is not him. This young man's vitality matches that of Bone Tempering Completion, and the strength of his physical body also corresponds with Bone Tempering Completion. Under my Divine Perception, he should not be able to conceal his cultivation."

"As for his Divinity, it is extremely weak, negligible... consistent with the strength involved when one has just advanced to Woodcarving Master."

"Therefore, it is impossible for him to be the Bull Demon."

Even if a Divine Base Cultivator did not come in person, it would be impossible for them to make a mistake in their observation.

A Divine Base Cultivator, with a condensed spirit, possesses perceptive abilities far superior to that of a Cultivation Practitioner.

Upon hearing this, Xu Heli finally dispelled the doubts in his heart.

"Zhao Xuanhai is dead... and he died as an Incense Master of the Spirit Infant Sect; the situation is somewhat problematic…"

"It was you who informed Zhao Xuanhai about Li Che becoming a Woodcarving Master, and as a result, Zhao Xuanhai died on the way, leaving the Xu Family... in a predicament that can't be easily cleansed."

"Li Che might also harbor some suspicions, but it's not a big problem."

"The real problem comes from City Lord Cao Guang. If he truly starts suspecting, it would be greatly detrimental to the Xu Family."

"I will make a trip to the City Lord's Mansion. You two should stay put in the Xu Family Compound and do not wander around, especially you, Heli..."

"If the Bull Demon could kill Zhao Xuanhai, he would also be capable of killing you..."

Upon hearing this, Xu Heli felt goosebumps rise and his hairs stand on end.

Xu Beihu beside him also shivered slightly.

The Divine Base Wood Carving glanced at Xu Beihu, "You don't need to tremble, the Bull Demon... likely disdains to kill you. If he wants you dead, shaking won't help; just die cleanly that's all."

Xu Beihu's mouth twitched, but he had no words in return.

"Furthermore, the City Lord is set to host the 'Thousand Buddha Carving Banquet', which is now inevitable. I, along with other Divine Base Cultivators from several families, have chosen to cooperate with the City Lord... Once the banquet is successful, all of us with Divine Base will greatly benefit!"

"This is a significant event... you both should take it seriously, particularly you, Heli. Prepare well and strive to gain benefits when the banquet succeeds... see if you can seize the opportunity to forge a Divine Base in one go!"

The Wood Carving spoke in a heavy tone.

Xu Heli's breath hitched slightly, and a glint of joy flashed in his eyes.

Divine Base, ah... If he could truly seize this chance, it would be a great thing for him.

How many Cultivation Practitioners, with Cultivation as Riverlike, are stuck at the step of forging the Divine Base?

Although forging a Divine Base with the assistance of the "Thousand Buddha Carving Banquet" may be seen as taking an unusual path, with a possibly unstable Divine Base, being able to become a Divine Base Cultivator... is sufficient!

Once a Divine Base is established, adding two hundred years to one's life, what more could he ask for?

...

...

"Can I cultivate two types of Divinity?"

Li Che's eyes blazed, his heart pounding with excitement.

Not by deriving the Divinity of others through the Thousand Analyzing Hands, but genuinely cultivating two types of Divine Methods, with the intention of eventually condensing two Divine Bases.

"Others may not be able to, as they could become mentally confused due to the clash between two types of Divinity, but I am different..."

"I have Dao Fruit 'Pure Heart', pure Divinity, without blemish... I indeed have the opportunity to try."

Two types of Divine Methods... would enable the forging of two Divine Bases in the future.

The enhancement to combat power would undoubtedly be immense.

After contemplating the feasibility for a moment, Li Che did not give it any more thought and began to peruse the Golden Hide Booklet "Great Scenery Town Temple Rage Mituo Temperament Method"!

"Great Scenery Town Temple..."

Li Che took a deep breath; this was officially sanctioned.

Without a doubt, this Method of Nurturing Nature originated from the Da Jing Dynasty.

And in terms of its rank, it was even higher than the Nine Luminaries Angry Cry Suppressing Ghosts he had previously acquired from Si Mubai.

That is to say, the "Wrathful Maitreya" is an Method of Nurturing Nature of Eight Extremes Level!

He opened it and read carefully, scrutinizing every detail.

```

Li Che, having had the experience of cultivating "Angry Cry Suppressing Ghosts," comprehended much more than before.

"Wrathful Maitreya… it requires blood and qi cultivation," Li Che pondered carefully, "Mobilizing one's own qi and blood to surge through the Spirit and invigorate a furious uprising..."

Once he had memorized the content completely, he stood up and clenched his fingers. The Qiankun space within the Pure Heart expelled an iron saber weighing eight hundred jin.

Grasping the long saber, the feeling of heaviness surged through his hand. Li Che breathed steadily, slowly moving the qi and blood within his body.

He knew no saber techniques, but that did not hinder him from using the offensive style of the White Tiger Chaotic Wind Fist to wield the saber, as his internal qi and blood roared in tandem.

Sounds of slicing the air moaned and howled, like rolls of thunder!

As if a furious dragon swam through his meridians, his body's sinews snapped and vibrated, the bones of the tiger roared with anger!

Li Che's body quickly reddened, heat steaming up as the falling snow from the heavens was vaporized and dissolved by his aura, nurturing the Essence Cultivation of "Wrathful Maitreya"!

Free divinity in the world gradually gathered.

Like a red spark, pervading and approaching.

All of a sudden, a thought jarred Li Che's heart, as the Dao Fruit of "Chess Saint" burst forth, condensing a black chess piece within his palm.

This chess piece… was formed by the condensed divinity of "Wrathful Maitreya!"

Li Che seemed pensive and with a sudden clench of his fingers, it was as if a Wrathful Maitreya angrily roared!

Strands of white misty sweat rapidly drifted out from beneath Li Che's skin!

The furious divinity contained in this chess piece, unexpectedly merged into Li Che's body.

Li Che's brow energy center suddenly radiated light, his eyes blood-red.

For divine cultivation, one must open the Inner Scene of the energy center, storing divinity within...

But every person only has one Inner Scene, which means that Li Che needed to store two types of divinity in one Inner Scene.

This was a source of chaos!

Li Che's expression was stern as he meticulously sensed the state of his Inner Scene, ready to abandon the cultivation of the second divinity if anything was amiss.

Thump thump thump…

Suddenly, the world turned utterly silent, and Li Che seemed to hear the sound of his own heartbeat.

Unmistakable, like thunder right beside his ear.

Then, the divinity of "Pure Heart" Dao Fruit surged out, seeping into his Inner Scene of the energy center.

The divinities of "Angry Cry" and "Wrath" that were almost boiling and colliding fiercely within...

Under the influx of Pure Heart's divinity, began to calm down.

It acted as a kind of neutralizer and lubricant...

Under the soothing power of the "Pure Heart," the two types of divinity stabilized without issues.

In the courtyard.

The cold sensation of snowflakes striking his face made Li Che open his eyes.

A look of joy momentarily flickered through them.

"'Wrathful Maitreya', accomplished!"

An unexpected delight!

Li Che himself had not anticipated that he could directly refine the divinity of Wrathful Maitreya with a "chess piece"!

If he refined eighteen chess pieces, couldn't the divinity of "Wrathful Maitreya" reach the state of Cultivation as Riverlike?

"If I slaughtered a Divine Base Cultivator who had cultivated the divinity of Wrathful Maitreya... wouldn't that ensure a smooth journey to forging a Divine Base?"

The thought made Li Che's heart beat excitedly.

The combination and matchup between Dao Fruits seemed... to be more effective than he had imagined.

In the Inner Scenery, slowly refining the divinity of "Wrathful Maitreya" would take some time.

Li Che stopped his divine cultivation and browsed the second Golden Hide Booklet.

This booklet was a divine secret technique, "Maitreya Gold Armor," a defensive divine secret technique. Once mastered, one's defense would greatly increase, forming a "Maitreya Gold Armor" around oneself!

Impervious to blades and spears, unaffected by water and fire!

Li Che's gaze sharpened as he took a deep breath...

The defensive divine secret technique made him think of his "Namo Gatling Wooden Crow." Once Maitreya Gold Armor was completed, with its automatic defense, his firepower... seemed to become less threatening.

"A glimpse of the leopard in the tube reveals there will be other defensive divine secret techniques..."

"No wonder I couldn't kill Zhao Xuanhai and others that night..."

"Even if I inject divinity into the Wood Raven, increasing its explosive power, facing a defensive divine secret technique, simply adding more Namo Gatling Wood Ravens seems inadequate..."

"If facing a Divine Base Cultivator's Maitreya Gold Armor, I might not even be able to break through the defense."

Li Che's brow furrowed, a vague sense of anxiety rising in his heart.

"Perhaps, I need to attempt to forge something by applying the blessing of the 'Immortal Artisan' Dao Fruit..."

"Namo Barrett Wood Raven?"
