Chapter 918: Emotions and 6 Desires Forging 15 Golden Cores, I Am the King Hunter Killer

Sawdust flew wildly, scattering in the air.

At the edge of the roof’s eaves, a crater exploded open, and shattered black tiles slid down from above.

Li Che’s jet-black hair fluttered, and a peculiar glint flickered in his eyes as he gazed at the fractured corner, his heart involuntarily trembling.

Tong You…

The Heaven and Earth chessboard enveloped him, entering the Tong You state—like stepping into another dimension. In that dimension, could damaged objects also break in reality?

This was truly extraordinary. If one entered the Netherworld to attack enemies, would they be unable to predict where the attack would strike from?

With a flick of his finger, a black Confining God chess piece drifted down, immediately transforming into the towering figure of White Impermanence Xue Dufu.

Xue Dufu, having devoured countless Confining Gods, had long ascended to the realm of a Supreme Grandmaster; his combat power had soared far beyond its former levels.

"Lord, you’ve finally thought of me.”

With fists clasped, Xue Dufu spoke excitedly.

Li Che glanced at Xue Dufu and nodded slightly.

"I might use you for practice. Are you ready?”

Upon hearing this, Xue Dufu’s eyes immediately lit up.

"Come on, Lord! Ravage me as you please!”

Li Che:

Never mind, let him babble.

The next moment, Li Che raised his hand and touched his brow.

The Heaven and Earth chessboard enveloped the small courtyard.

"Tong You.”

Then the divine skill activated—the power of Tong You.

The Netherworld descended!

Everything around them changed once again—ruin, desolation, death, decay…

An array of deteriorating auras continuously suffused outward, as if the entire world was cloaked in a Netherworld-style filter.

Xue Dufu stood in place, eyes wide, scanning his surroundings repeatedly, seemingly confused about where his Lord had gone.

Had he summoned him only to leave him hanging?

Li Che’s toes lightly tapped the ground as he traversed the Netherworld, appearing by Xue Dufu’s side. Then, he raised his hand and flicked his finger against Xue Dufu’s brow.

Bang—!!!

In the instant of the flick, even the air at the fingertip seemed to distort and rupture, erupting into undulating waves of turbulent energy!

Xue Dufu’s body was instantaneously flung backward uncontrollably, like a sandbag struck by overwhelming force.

He clutched his forehead, terror apparent in his eyes, glancing around frantically while muttering something to himself.

However, Li Che couldn’t hear his words; it was as if they were separated by worlds, able to interact but unable to communicate.

Li Che had further verified the power of the Chess Saint’s new divine skill, [Tong You].

Upon further study, [Tong You] could substitute Divine Chess Pieces to coalesce Netherworld Energy into Netherworld Chess Pieces, amplifying their force and explosive capabilities remarkably.

Furthermore, Tong You enabled entry into a Netherworld-like inner realm—the Netherworld Heaven—where Li Che could see others while remaining invisible to them, making it an excellent tool for ambushes.

Of course, while it seemed ideal for sneak attacks, acting against Martial Saints or Divine Embryo Realm cultivators might allow their Heavenly Person Sensing or Heaven and Earth Soul to perceive and react at the final moment.

Still, for Li Che, it was more than sufficient.

After all, a calculated move against an unsuspecting opponent is the ultimate ambush.

However, Li Che couldn’t linger in the Netherworld space for too long. Extended stays might result in his aura being assimilated by the Netherworld, ultimately trapping him there permanently, unable to return.

This was a point of caution.

Exiting Tong You, Li Che’s form abruptly materialized in the courtyard.

Xue Dufu stared at Li Che in shocked silence.

His Lord… had become even more mysterious and powerful!

Li Che ignored Xue Dufu’s feverishly enthusiastic gaze, sinking into deep contemplation.

Tong You, traversing the Netherworld, did not cause the entire world to enter the Netherworld dimension. Only the area encompassed by the chessboard could connect to the Netherworld; furthermore, expanding the chessboard to its limit would also prevent Netherworld access.

It was akin to a piece of metal—crafted and stretched to an extreme length weakens its structural integrity.

Similarly, the Heaven and Earth chessboard’s Tong You operates by the same principle.

Xue Dufu’s incessant chatter was exceptionally grating. With a clench of his five fingers, Li Che transformed Xue Dufu back into a Confining God chess piece, which settled within the Heaven and Earth chessboard.

"Exhale

"Inhale

The willow branches danced in the breeze, infusing the air with the fragrance of early spring.

Li Che felt an unparalleled sense of exhilaration; the transformations brought by reaching level 5 in [Chess Saint]’s Dao Fruit were indeed profound.

First and foremost, the strength of the Heaven and Earth chessboard had comprehensively elevated.

Whether in perception, reconnaissance, the masking of aura, or influencing reality—it all exceeded previous capabilities by leaps and bounds.

"Could the current Heaven and Earth chessboard uncover those hidden Corpse God Cult evil people lurking around Divine Carving Ridge?”

Li Che’s eyes gleamed as his thoughts stirred.

Nonetheless, he wasn’t in a hurry. He had already sent the Dragon Maiden to establish contact with the Corpse God Cult. Once their location was pinpointed, Li Che would seek an opportunity to strike.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Li Che could feel the Niwan Inner Scenery Space at his brow pulsating and vibrating intensely.

"A breakthrough is near

Li Che’s gaze shone brightly.

His Divine Cultivation was finally trending toward a breakthrough.

The Seven Emotions God Phase had long been perfected, and with the assistance of the Six Desires Evil Slayer Lv Xuan Sword Immortal Temple God, forming the Six Desires Sword God Form, along with the continuous siphoning of Divinity Crystal essence, the Six Desires God Phase had pushed into Elemental Appearance.

Now everything had achieved perfection, allowing Li Che to begin condensing the Divine Golden Pill in preparation for advancing to the Divine Origin Realm!

Still, condensing the Shin Yuan Golden Elixir would not be an overnight affair.

With a subtle mental gesture, a Divine Method emerged in his mind.

It was the “Heaven and Earth Spirit Bright True Ape God Essence Skill.”
