Chapter 1127: Chapter 327: Xi Xi’s Dragon Marrow Prison Lotus Bone Strengthening Soup, 3,000-Year-Old West Queen Mother’s Peach [Monthly Ticket Requested]
The leaden clouds churn, and the snow roars!
The great river surges, rolling waves a thousand folds!
Snowflakes as large as hands drift down from the clouds.
Strange temples abound within Qianyuan Dao City, and even within the Qiankun River, mysterious temples span across, and so, the river’s waters never freeze, not even in the harshest winter.
The nine-level Yellow Dragon Xuan Wood flying-eave pavilion treasure ship cuts through the river water, sending waves roaring into the air!
Like a colossal beast, it presses across the river surface, splitting the waters to both sides, with a subtle, invisible shockwave spreading, dividing the river as the treasure ship sails.
The cold river water splashes and rolls, hitting the falling snowflakes mid-air, causing them to explode into fine snow dust, rising up!
Inside the pavilion of the treasure ship, in a spacious cabin room.
The intricately carved wooden windows close one after another, adorned with exquisite patterns, and the interlocking mortise and tenon joints form a roof rich with antiquity.
This room is specifically prepared for Li Che, a place for him to carve wood sculptures.
The room is stocked with many precious spiritual woods, all arranged by the Qian Yuan Divine Sect for Li Che to practice with.
Upon learning that Li Che was heading to the Divine Capital, Gongshu Jingjun began preparations a month earlier, gathering numerous rare spiritual woods, intending for Li Che to fully cultivate his divine sculpture skills during the journey, so that once in the Divine Capital, he could secure the position of Special Class Guest Elder at the Qintian Observatory.
The identity of a Special Class Guest Elder is very unique; one must be at least of a Semi-Saint level from each field to earn it.
However, becoming a Semi-Saint does not automatically grant one the identity of a Special Class Guest Elder.
Every Special Class Guest Elder is decided by the Chief Supervisor of Qintian Observatory headquarters along with two Deputy Inspectors.
As long as one Deputy Inspector disapproves, the quota for Special Class Guest Elder cannot be issued.
However, Li Che is merely going to try his luck, and if he truly becomes a Special Class Guest Elder, it would naturally be a good thing…
It is said that only by becoming a Special Class Guest Elder of the Qintian Observatory does one have the qualification to apply for the Four Imperial Ranks’ spiritual wood!
The Qintian Observatory and the Temple Control Bureau, as two top forces under the Da Jing Dynasty, could independently rank at least in the top three Divine Sect levels.
Being official forces with countless resources stacked, backed by the Imperial Court, they are naturally extraordinary.
Not to mention the first Chief of the Temple Control Bureau headquarters and the famed Chief Supervisor with divine calculation skills from Qintian Observatory, just the other two Chiefs of the Temple Control Bureau and the two Deputy Inspectors of Qintian Observatory are already top strongmen of the world.
Take Tie Shancai’s father, for example, he is the second Chief within the Temple Control Bureau, akin to Lv Taibai, a strongman listed on both the Great God List and the Heavenly Gate.
The charcoal stove burns quietly within the room, the temperature rises, warm as spring.
The treasure ship sways mildly, but the impact is not significant; for martial artists like Li Che, who can walk on water as if on flat ground, there is naturally no fear of seasickness.
Sitting on the Taishi chair, Li Che fiddles with the engraving knife in his hand, his gaze falling on the Divine Sculpture taken from the jade box before him.
The Divine Sculpture is broken beyond repair, covered in cracks, precisely the past Dharma body of the Grandmaster Huang Mei of the Little Lingyin Temple.
Lv Taibai’s Sword Qi was too domineering, cutting this Holy Hand Divine Sculpture into countless pieces, and after taking the wooden sculpture, he spent quite some time extracting his Sword Qi that had eroded the wood sculpture, reassembling it into the Divine Sculpture.
This is why Lv Taibai did not have the Underworld Yama, who heavily injured Huang Mei’s past life, take the Divine Sculpture at the first opportunity.
Li Che did not comprehend; the engraving knife twirled dynamically between his fingers, the sound of its whir seemingly slicing the air into shards.
With a snap, the engraving knife was suddenly gripped tightly by Li Che.
A sharp glint surfaced in his eyes.
“Yue Huanglong…”
Through the eavesdropping on the Heaven and Earth chessboard, Li Che heard the conversation between Yue Huanglong and Yan Jing, learning that Yue Huanglong had informed the strongmen of the Dragon God Clan.
In fact, Li Che was not surprised that the Dragon God Clan would come seeking trouble.
After all, the Dragon God Clan had lost a Dragon Maiden and Dragon Son, with one having married Ji Moli as a consort.
Their identity was extremely important to the Dragon God Lineage.
And Dragon Son Ao Lie, being able to become a Martial Saint level Dragon Son, was surely crucial for the Dragon God Lineage.
Due to the innate talent and bloodline of the Dragon God Clan, their physical bodies were innately strong, but breaking through to Martial Saint was by no means easy.
Looking at the Dragon Queen Consort Ao Yuxin, it was known that breaking through to Martial Saint was exceedingly difficult.
Therefore, this Dragon Son Ao Lie…
The loss and fall here naturally caused deep pain to the Dragon God Clan.
Thus, when Yue Huanglong said the Dragon God Clan might come with a Titled Old Dragon King, Li Che also found it quite understandable.
“Titled Dragon King…”
“It should be an existence comparable to an Absolute Peak level, not even a second-tier peak, but equivalent to a first-tier absolute peak like Yue Huanglong and Hong Shifu.”
Li Che leaned back on the chair, pondering.
“But a single Titled Dragon King wouldn’t suffice… who would dare to stop the treasure ship of Qian Yuan Divine Sect?”
“After all, the Sect Master is stationed for protection…”
Li Che frowned.
He sensed that Yue Huanglong was insidious and treacherous, certainly plotting something.
During this time, Li Che, while reading with Fang Hanshu at his bamboo lodge, also heard descriptions of the tensions between the Da Jing Dynasty and the Divine Sect.
The Dao Master officials dispatched by the Da Jing Dynasty to each Dao City were not randomly chosen; they were all carefully selected by National Master Xie Yushen.
