Chapter 1277: Chapter 357: Immortal Artisan’s Fourth Shedding—Divine Power Advances to Daoist Ghost Axe, Dao Yun’s Heavenly Secrets Reveal the Killer Bull Demon [Monthly Ticket Request]
Whoosh whoosh whoosh——
A gentle breeze slowly sweeps through the silent and tranquil Ninth Layer of the Octagonal Double-eave Water Tower in the Qintian Treasure Tower, leaving behind a faint, lingering sound.
It’s like the near-imperceptible friction sound created by dust being stirred on the ground, subtly stirring the heart.
Li Che slowly opens his eyes, and within his gaze, it seems as though dual pupils are overlapping.
However, what Li Che is concerned about right now is not this anomaly.
It’s the flowing light appearing before his eyes.
Thump thump thump——
The powerful beating of the heart sounds like thunder in the ears, and the intense thumping of the Immortal Artisan Dao Fruit gradually subsides, like smoke drifting away.
The Great Dao silently guides…
Gradually fading away.
Li Che’s eyes open and close, golden smoke settles around him, standing at the center of the Ninth Layer, his entire being in a state of transformative enlightenment, profound beyond measure, as if his mind reaches the heavens.
Immortal Artisan Dao Fruit!
Fourth Transformation!
Deep within Li Che’s eyes, there is a hint of uncontrolled joy—it has finally reached the Fourth Transformation!
As the first Dao Fruit he obtained, the Immortal Artisan Dao Fruit provided immense assistance to Li Che, one could say it changed the destiny of Li Che and his family!
In Fei Lei City, starting from being a mover, it was the emergence of the Immortal Artisan Dao Fruit that allowed Li Che to master wood carving skills, rapidly rise, and reach his current heights.
Li Che’s emotions for this Dao Fruit are extremely rich.
When the Dragon Elephant Vajra and Immaculate Heart Dao Fruits successively reached Level 6 rank and achieved Fourth Transformation, awakening the Dao Guide.
In Li Che’s heart, there was a certain sense of urgency for the maturing of the Immortal Artisan Dao Fruit.
And now, it has finally transformed.
A sense of relief spreads in his heart like ink spreading.
Li Che remains mostly still, though he does not forget that he is currently within the Qintian Observatory Treasure Building.
Jet-black and robust hair flutters wildly, Li Che feels as if his spirit has undergone a transformation on a new level, everything in sight becoming traceable.
In his mind, understanding of the Divine Sculpting Skill deepens profoundly, as if having received advanced training.
His gaze lands on the just-finished divine sculpture carved from Turtle Shell Spirit Wood, called “Mysterious Turtle Carrying Heavy Eyes,” a pinnacle work of a Half-Saint.
Yet for the current Li Che, it has become unsatisfactory.
In his eyes, with the transformation of the Dao Fruit, this once perfect divine sculpture reveals imperfections, areas that could be improved and enhanced.
Li Che knows this is the skill-level improvement brought about by the Immortal Artisan achieving the Fourth Transformation.
His breathing slightly intensifies, as if his entire skeleton is trembling lightly, gradually adapting to and matching the transformation of the Dao Fruit, allowing his physical body to keep up with the consciousness changes post-Immortal Artisan transformation.
“Inhale——”
“Exhale——”
Every inhalation and exhalation slightly stirs the wind and waves.
Li Che gently closes his eyes, and his mind seems to be instantly drawn into the vast heavens and earth, whereupon he sees the Heavenly Dao Tree towering straight into the sky.
He also sees on the Dao Tree, one by one, hanging Dao Fruits of seven-colored glaze.
Li Che floats in mid-air, hair flying, easily locating the Immortal Artisan Dao Fruit among many Dao Fruits.
The Dao Fruit sways, rocked by invisible wind and waves.
Subsequently, a layer of its seven-colored glaze skin slowly sheds off.
Just like the skin of the previous Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit, seeming to be molded by invisible Dao Yun into a Dragon Elephant Furnace.
The skin of the Immaculate Heart Dao Fruit sheds, molded into a Seven-orifice Exquisite Heart.
Now, the skin of the Immortal Artisan Dao Fruit, just like the previous two Dao Fruits…
Suspended in the air of the Dao Fruit Space, stretching out into a net and covering the entire world under the branches of the Dao Tree, slowly twisting and transforming.
Buzz——!!!
In the Dao Fruit Space, there seems to appear a terrifying sharpness, dazzling and domineering, filling the space between heaven and earth, causing every hair on Li Che’s body to stand on end.
Then, Li Che sees the Immortal Artisan Fruit Skin…
Being molded into a…
jet-black axe!
Yes, pitch-black, like it was crafted from a black hole, as if extracted from the depths of purgatory, a jet-black axe.
Countless ancient and mysterious scriptures float to the surface of the jet-black axe, resembling tadpoles wandering, golden in color, densely interwoven.
Obscuring much of the darkness of the black axe.
Boom——!!!
When the golden tadpole scriptures crawl to every corner of the axe.
The axe shakes violently, causing the air to shatter explosively.
Li Che feels his heart and spirit shattered.
Everything is in disarray.
As the world spins, Li Che’s consciousness exits the Dao Tree Space.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh——
Li Che feels a splitting headache, as if the terrifying axe’s sharpness is about to fracture his spirit.
Yet greater pain comes from his hands.
Li Che feels as if each of his ten fingers is being pierced by extremely sharp steel needles, causing them to bleed.
Suppressing the piercing pain.
Li Che’s ten fingers tremble slightly.
His gaze fixes on a message flowing like a spring breeze before him.
[Dao Fruit Level 6, Fourth Transformation, Divine Skills (Star Plucking) Upgraded, Dao Guide (Ghost Axe)]
Dao Guide!
Ghost Axe!
As expected, the Fourth Transformation Dao Fruit will give rise to a Dao Guide!
As if it were a transformative ability derived from the divine guidance of the Great Dao!
But why is it that the fruit skin of the Dao Fruit sheds to produce such an ability…
Could it be that when the Dao Fruit itself fully ripens, an even more terrifying ability will emerge?
[Dao Guide (Ghost Axe): The skin of the Dao Fruit sheds, ushering the Dao, the Immortal Artisan’s Ghost Axe, seizing heavenly creation]
