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

Chapter 2163: Chapter 543: Disciple and Daughter Meet—Who’s Stronger? Steadily Turn Them Into Soul Capturing Gods [Monthly Ticket Request]

The Earth Dragon turned over, mud flew and stones splattered.

Although Yunxiao Village is just a Five Elders Rank village, it is indigenous to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. The old village chief Yun He specifically hired this Earth Dragon, which is the most widely used means of transportation on the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Compared to carriages, it is much faster. The Earth Dragon races across the ground like a swimming snake, with scenery flashing by on both sides.

Li Che released his Divine Spirit Thought to slightly perceive and immediately understood that this Earth Dragon possessed a bit of the power of the Space Path, which is why it moved at such an incredible speed.

The speed was notably faster than high-speed trains from Li Che’s previous life.

After traveling for about three days, they arrived at the selection site for the Xuanxiao Heavenly Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle, located at the foot of a mountain that rises abruptly from the plains.

While the Earth Dragon raced at full speed, Li Che sat under a cool canopy, sipping hot tea.

The old village chief Yun He squinted, pointed at that majestic mountain, which seemed to pierce the heavens, veiled in mist and clouds at mid-mountain, and said with a smile, "This mountain is called Mystic Entrance Mountain, forged by the powerful deities of the Dark Heavenly Court using Great Divine Skills. In Xuanxiao Heaven, there are a total of thirty-three Mystic Entrance Mountains, known as the Thirty-Three Heavens by the deities of the Dark Heavenly Court."

"On each mountain are carved Teleportation Arrays that can reach other heavenly domains and territories."

"The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are vast, and the Divine Sculpture Immortal Hands carve divine sculptures, setting up transmission arrays that are the most critical means of transportation, far surpassing the Earth Dragon in traversing."

"Should we advance in the Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle, we could use this Mystic Entrance Mountain to proceed to the main battleground of the Divine Gambling Battle."

Yun He stroked his beard and said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Li Che’s eyes swept over, his body faintly revealing the Tao Immortal Pattern, which was the Primordial Qiankun Battle, the Immortal Pattern of the Primordial Space Tribulation emerging.

As the Immortal Pattern emerged, Li Che immediately sensed a strong spatial aura emanating from this Mystic Entrance Mountain. His gaze seemed to see a series of massive divine sculptures arranged on various corners of the mountain, linked to each other and releasing an aura that formed a spatial field.

"The path of the Divine Sculpture... integrated with the formation."

In the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the path of the Divine Sculpture was more important than Li Che imagined.

At mid-mountain, the corridors are shrouded in mist and clouds.

When the team from Yunxiao Village arrived at the dragon resting area, there were already dozens to a hundred Earth Dragons resting there, each breath like the roar of thunder.

At the foot of the mountain, the area suddenly became lively, teeming with countless people.

Yunhuang and Yun Lei tightly followed by Li Che’s side, and as Li Che glanced around, he saw people of various appearances and different styles walking about continuously.

"The Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle, under the joint development of the Er Sheng Sanqing Ancient Village and the All Gods Camp, has now become one of the most important events in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths."

"Therefore, most of the villages in Xuanxiao Heaven choose to participate, after all... the resources provided by the Mysterious Temple of the village are insufficient for every village."

Yun He sighed.

"Brother Mo Che, this time I brought almost all of the village’s foundation, with Yunhuang and Yun Lei as the last hope of our Yunxiao Village."

Yun He said.

Li Che smiled and gently patted the heads of Yunhuang and Yun Lei: "They will not let you down."

Rumble——

A powerful aura spans the firmament, crashing through the void with extreme force, setting off waves.

There were three figures, the leader of whom was a deity of the Path-Cutting Realm, dressed in luxurious robes, with an immortal aura and divinity like a tide.

Beside him were two Merging Realm deities.

These three deities were sent by the Dark Heavenly Court to preside over the preliminaries of the Xuanxiao Heavenly Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle.

The appearance of the three deities caused a Path-Cutting deity to sweep his gaze across the high sky, the substantial gaze seemingly as pressing as an abyss, rolling down suppressively, causing the bustling foot of the Mystic Entrance Mountain to fall into a deep silence.

Subsequently, the Path-Cutting deity began to explain the preliminary rules.

After finishing the rules, the leading Path-Cutting deity clapped his hands vigorously as if an invisible energy wave spread out.

Thereafter, the divine will enveloped the entire Mystic Entrance Mountain.

"Divine attention, the gambling battle begins, witness by the deities, accept the wager and the outcome."

The voice of the Dark Heavenly Court’s Path-Cutting Divine Officer was ethereal and transcendent, resonating through the entire mountain.

Following this, the three deities turned into light beams, gracefully landing at the summit of the Mystic Entrance Mountain, sitting there overlooking the cultivators at the foot of the mountain.

The bustle at the foot of the mountain gradually resumed.

Yun He withdrew his gaze, tugging at Li Che’s sleeve.

"Mr. Mo Che, each village has five chances to participate in the Divine Gambling Battle, meaning they have five chances to place bets... if all five attempts fail, or if they can’t provide stakes, it means the village loses qualification to participate in the Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle."

"Divine Child Gambling Battle and Divine Realm Gambling Battle... our Yunxiao Village is mainly hoping for the Divine Child Gambling Battle..."

Yun He stroked his beard, "As for the Divine Realm Gambling Battle... only I can participate, but... there isn’t much hope, it’s more about participation."

Yun He finished speaking, then couldn’t help but give an awkward smile.

Although he is a Second Calamity Divine Tribulation Venerable, however...

Aging, the decline of health, his state is no longer at its peak.

In his younger years, he indeed won a lot of resources for Yunxiao Village, but he is old now...

And Yunxiao Village has not yet birthed a Divine Tribulation Venerable who could support the village. Yun He was at a loss, and he even began to worry that as he ages and passes away, in the future... Yunxiao Village might fall from a Five Elders Village to a Six Divisions Village.
