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

Chapter 2249 - 560: Immortal Artisan’s Seventh Transformation Ascends as Divine Sculpture Immortal, Observing the Heaven and Earth Origin Sculpture of the Nirvana Heavenly King

Li Che even suspected that he didn’t need to say anything to help that Divine Sculpture Master Cang Che enter the Immortal Hand Realm, just taking out the Dao Yun Divine Crystal would make them obey.

However, pointing out a breakthrough for a Saint Hand is not a problem for him, who has now reached the Great Immortal level of Divine Sculpture.

Mystic Entrance Mountain is located within Xuanxiao Heaven, unlike the Mystic Entrance Mountain where the Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle was last held.

The mountain peaks tower high, reaching into the clouds, resembling a Divine Spear, piercing through idle clouds.

Mid-mountain, there lies an Ancient City, vast beyond measure.

Countless Divine Ships gather from all directions, not every ship carries a Divine Sculpture Master; many come to watch the spectacle, and to attempt recruiting some Divine Sculpture Masters, Immortal Hands, and others who wish to switch villages.

"This time, the Divine Craft Immortal Hand Conference is highly valued by the Dark Heavenly Court; it’s the largest ever held. In the past, Taixu Heaven also hosted similar conferences, but none were this grand."

"It seems to be because this time the Lord Immortal will personally appear, and the Lord Immortal is one of the two Heavenly Immortals of the Dark Heavenly Court! His status is extremely high in the court!"

Cang Yuan talked a lot, with a somewhat chatty demeanor.

Of course, it might also be because he was doing his job diligently after being paid.

Upon arriving at Mystic Entrance Mountain and entering the Ancient City, Cang Yuan competed to assist Li Che along the way, finding an inn and obtaining the participation badge for the Immortal Hand Conference, among other things...

He was quite attentive, seemingly unconcerned about being a Two Slash Divine, leaving Li Che feeling puzzled.

In the face of resources, this Two Slash Divine seemed feeble, as if lacking bones.

"You don’t need to be so humble..."

Li Che felt a bit uncomfortable and said to Cang Yuan.

Cang Yuan simply smiled: "I’ve taken your resources, and my attitude should reflect that. After all, these resources are meant for the children of Canglan Village. If my demeanor can earn us more resources... then I can be even more humble, since you are the Golden Master, after all."

Li Che, hearing this, remained silent for a moment. He had underestimated the importance of resources in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

"Brother Cang Che, you don’t need to worry too much... The younger generation in the village wants to cultivate properly and obtain resources for cultivation. We, as elders, must forge ahead without burdens."

Cang Yuan was quite carefree.

"I don’t know your reason for participating in this Immortal Hand Conference... it doesn’t concern me. I’m only interested in resources and Cang Che truly breaking through to the level of Divine Sculpture Immortal Hand. That way, the future resource pressure on Canglan Village will lighten considerably."

Inside the inn.

Li Che sat cross-legged, with the Heaven and Earth chessboard floating above his head, emitting starlight.

With a shift of the mind, accompanied by the sound of rushing water, the compressed version of the Tao River manifested around him, the river roiled and surged relentlessly.

A Dao Boat roared to life, marching through the waves on the Tao River!

Exploring deeper into the depths of the Tao River.

After a long while, the phantom of the Tao River gradually dissipated, Li Che opened his eyes, spreading his arms, powerful Qi-Blood surged, emitting thunderous roars.

"Although I’ve condensed the Dao Boat, navigating through the Tao River to its end is not an easy task."

"To integrate the Dao, all eight Tao Rivers must be traversed to their ends..."

"Before this, considerable effort is required for preparation."

Integration of the Dao, integration... naturally, it’s not easy.

Li Che was well aware of the extreme difficulty martial arts Xuan Immortals faced with each step they took!

In this era, martial arts had no path; the path Li Che walked is the path!

The sound of knocking on the door echoed suddenly.

Li Che’s eyes opened and closed, sharp as a blade.

"Brother Cang Che, the selection for the Divine Craft Immortal Hand Xuanxiao Heaven conference is about to begin; we should head to the venue now."

Cang Yuan’s voice came from outside the door.

Li Che, hearing this, did not continue cultivating. He tidied up briefly and walked out of his room.

Cang Yuan’s gaze towards Li Che was noticeably different; he couldn’t see through Li Che at all, not even while Li Che was cultivating inside the room, he couldn’t discern it.

However, Cang Yuan didn’t care, as he said, all he wanted... was only beneficial to the village’s interests.

The two of them walked out of the inn, heading towards the venue.

"I heard this time, the Young Emperor of the Dark Heavenly Court is personally overseeing things, selecting certain Immortal Hands to join his recruited team..."

Cang Yuan eagerly shared the gathered information with Li Che.

The Golden Master was providing resources, and Cang Yuan naturally wanted to offer the best service.

If... paying more would be even better.

"This recruitment isn’t entirely buying out; it’s more like the Young Emperor assembling a team with large-scale resources to contend with other All Gods camps, as well as the Divine Sculpture Masters from the Two Saints Ancient Village."

"Black Sumeru and Deceit Demon Cave are famous for their prowess in Divine Sculpture, and this time the Lord Immortal is crafting Divine Pills, so the Dark Heavenly Court doesn’t want to give away these resources. If they can occupy more slots among the selected Divine Sculpture Masters by the Lord Immortal... it would naturally be favorable."

Cang Yuan’s words made Li Che suddenly enlightened.

In the midst of the conversation, the two had already arrived at the venue.

Referring to it as a venue, it was actually akin to a splendid palace complex, adorned with various decorative beams and painted buildings topped with glazed golden tiles.

Because this selection targeted Divine Sculpture Immortal Hands, it couldn’t compare to the venue of the previous Thousand Village Divine Gambling Battle.

Divine Sculpture, being an art, a refined art, naturally required complete decorum.

Cang Yuan led Li Che towards the direction indicated by the badge.

Within the ancient-style palace, there were even maids serving them, beautifully clad in white gauze, resembling fairies.
