Chapter 972: Chapter 294: Daughter, Age 6, Dao Fruit [Dream Master], Immortal Dreams to Witness True Self [Requesting Monthly Ticket]_2

Li Che slightly closed his eyes, not using any power, allowing the snowflakes to fall on his skin.

The icy sensation made every cell in his body cheer with joy.

Li Che loved winter; snowy days were the ones he most anticipated and cherished.

Not only because his daughter’s birthday was in winter, but also because… winter marked the beginning of his fate change.

“Xi Xi is six years old now.”

“The seventh Dao Fruit.”

Li Che’s gaze gradually deepened.

“Exhale–”

“Inhale–”

Each inhale and exhale, the cold stream circulated through his teeth, the airflow stirred, and his mind calmed completely, undisturbed.

Slightly closing his eyes, he was not in a hurry, his mind as calm as floating ice, quietly waiting for the Dao Fruit to appear.

Neither arrogant nor impatient, his heart still as water.

No one knew how long it passed, and the endless silent snow seemed to cleanse his soul.

Suddenly.

Li Che suddenly opened his eyes, and brilliant golden light exploded in his eyes!

Boom–!!!

It was as if the ancient bell filled with the breath of time was fiercely struck atop the snowy peak of a ten-thousand-foot-tall snow mountain, a sound exploded by his ear!

In just an instant, Li Che felt as if all sounds in the world had vanished.

Only the unparalleled roaring in his ears and boundless solemnity remained.

Thump thump–

Thump thump thump–!!!

Within his chest, when the first Dao Fruit began to thump, then came the second, third, fourth…

The successive beats, strong and powerful, his inner qi-blood rose and fell like tides!

The sound of surging blood was almost palpable!

It seemed like waves of shock were spreading from his body, impacting the world in all directions!

Shattering the snowflakes in the sky!

Li Che’s pores all relaxed, his muscles and bones sang, yet at this moment, he felt a sense of inability to muster strength, overwhelmed by the energy filled with the Dao Fruit.

Dao Fruit [Divine Craft], [Dragon Elephant Vajra], [Pure Heart], [Chess Saint], [Fairy in the Painting], [Lei-Ci Dao Body] — the six Dao Fruits, sequentially vibrating, impacting like tides!

Boom–!

Boom–!

The circles of shock waves almost never ceased, causing a gale to sweep through the entire courtyard, chaotic currents whirling!

As if cheering and waiting for a new companion!

Li Che’s brilliant golden eyes emitted a dense golden smoke.

“It’s here!”

Li Che let out a long exhale.

The next moment.

His jet-black hair whipped wildly like black lightning lashes.

It was as if a force hit his brow.

The whole person seemed to fall into a strange space.

Primitive, profound, vast, boundless, and majestic energy…

Descended!

…

…

Rumble—-!!!

The heavens collapsed and the earth shattered, as if a mountain connecting heaven and earth was smashed by an unimaginable force.

The world lost its support, crashing down, dark and chaotic.

Once Li Che’s mind settled, he opened his eyes to see the familiar vast heaven and earth again.

Endless, vast and majestic, wherever he looked, he could see the limitless rising mist, like immortals tumbling within, with ancient immortal gods standing within it.

Where is this place? Li Che’s heart trembled, every time appearing in this space, he felt his own insignificance.

Today, he was not a novice in cultivation, having entered Qiankun Dao Yun’s Small Cave Heaven with Xi Xi, sensed the Corpse God Realm’s grotto heaven, and also entered the Strange Temple’s Deceitful World.

But compared to this vast heaven and earth, those were truly insignificant.

His mind refocused, and as always, he saw the towering Heavenly Tao Tree.

Shooting through the sky, piercing through heaven and earth, its multicolored leaves and branches spreading out, covering everything as if the entire heavenly dome was under the shelter of the Tao Tree.

Hanging on the Tao Tree were fruits familiar to Li Che, and from them, he could sense familiar energy.

In front of the Tao Tree, his minute self was like an ant.

He knew, that today, he could contend with the Martial Saint.

But even the Martial Saint, before this Tao Tree, was just an ephemera.

Li Che didn’t try to imagine the level of the Tao Tree; clearly, it far exceeded the scope his current vision could comprehend, and he seemed unable even to touch the real mysteries.

What is the Tao Tree?

Who planted it, or was it born from heaven and earth?

And what is this heaven and earth that appears because of the bond tied to his daughter’s birth?

Too many questions, like a dense fog shrouding his eyes.

But Li Che understood his current insignificance, and when his vision was lacking, he wouldn’t try to grasp what he couldn’t reach.

Forcibly crossing levels to touch things he shouldn’t would only bring disaster and harm.

Just like one can only earn money within their own cognitive limits…

For things beyond cognition, one must remain vigilant and reverent.

His gaze landed on a multicolored fruit slowly drifting down from the Tao Tree.

This Dao Fruit was enveloped in a hazy multicolored mist.

The seventh Dao Fruit!

Li Che’s eyes suddenly lit up with brilliance!

The next moment, countless images seemed to emerge in his pupils, unfolding like a revolving lantern, dreamlike and illusory, real yet unreal!

In the images, Li Che saw Xi Xi working hard in cultivation for the Sect Master’s true successor assessment.

He also saw her competing with other divine children during the Sect Master’s true successor assessment.

And he saw Xi Xi, even after becoming the Sect Master’s true successor, not relaxing for a moment, diligently cultivating!
