Longevity Chronicles
Chapter 417 - 290: Transcendent and Unworldly, Entering Daozhen, Immune to All Techniques with a Spiritual Treasure Body_2

Soon, the Xiu Family Elder had no choice but to wipe the smile from his face, becoming solemn and serious.

In total, thirteen Ultimate Happiness Realm powerhouses descended together.

It was as if a tidal surge of heavens and earth's oppressive powers were crashing down together, rendering Tao Qian speechless.

Even though he had not yet fallen into their clutches, Tao Qian felt like a decrepit little boat in the midst of a storm, liable to capsize at any moment.

Looking down, he saw rotten flesh, sheep hooves, snake scales, fish gills, maggots, and other such mutated signs appearing on his body.

At such a moment, one would think death was certain.

Tao Qian should be utterly terrified, loudly begging for mercy.

Xiu Zhonglin was indeed looking forward to such a scene.

He certainly had an elegant demeanor, but his mind was dirty, extremely eager to watch a member of the Spirit Treasure Sect, a talent who had just achieved a great feat and whose background was extraordinary, reveal his most pitiful side.

Unfortunately, his malicious wish was destined to be unfulfilled.

At some point, Tao Qian's face had lost that look of wandering fear; there was not even a hint of helplessness.

It seemed as if he had come to a realization, and his expression gradually relaxed.

Even while bearing the thirteen surges of chaotic, contaminated energy, he stared directly at the thirteen behemoths' indescribable true forms.

Under Xiu Zhonglin's baffled gaze, Tao Qian suddenly opened his mouth and began casting.

After being sealed by the Sealing Spirit Forbidden Technique, none of his other magic skills could be activated.

Only the "True Word Secret Decree" ignored the seal.

But when Tao Qian used this technique, it was not to escape the predicament, but to verify something.

"This tribulation is a false one, I shall remain unharmed."

As soon as the words were spoken, there was no reaction.

Yet, a look of surprise and joy immediately appeared on Tao Qian's face.

The reason?

The Secret Decree followed a principle of equivalent exchange; if this tribulation were real, Tao Qian would have suffered severe injuries upon uttering that sentence.

But if it were false, there would naturally be no cost at all.

"Ever since leaving Demon City, I have overcome three tribulations. With the profound mystery of the Spirit Treasure Unlimited Tribulation Crossing Technique, now should be the time for me to reap the benefits. How could there be a new tribulation to come for me?"

"If that is the case, there must be a solution to this dangerous predicament before me, but what is it?"

"Previously, Yuan Gong had reminded me, and my master is scheming as well... but facing such a situation, even if he came wielding the Heavenly Punishment Sword, it would probably be of no use...unless..."

Just as Tao Qian pondered to this point, a change took place within him.

A spark of Spirit Light appeared, surging from his inner cosmos that tumbled with the elements of earth, water, fire, and wind, fostering the profound truth of the Spiritual Treasure.

This Spirit Light was all too familiar to Tao Qian.

When the Ancestor Master passed down his teachings, besides being taught the "Scripture of Salvation," Tao Qian had received an even greater boon.

Back then, Tao Qian had inwardly criticized his Ancestor Master for being cryptic. Yet he hadn't expected its relevance to be revealed here.

Innate Spiritual Treasure Divine Light!

"So that's how it is."

"My master must have foreseen this incident, deliberately quarreled with Yuan Gong, simply to trap Xiu Zhonglin once again, and incidentally eliminate some of the lingering troubles after my cultivation tribulation,"

Having said this, Tao Qian's face instantly revealed a smile.

Whether it was the Sealing Spirit Forbidden Technique or the Ultimate Happiness Realm pollution, in the face of that Spirit Light that steadily expanded, enveloping Tao Qian's body from inside out, they were as inconsequential as clay chickens and pottery dogs, utterly ineffective.

Tao Qian sat cross-legged in his Seven Fragrant Car, looking around at his surroundings, and felt an inexplicable sense of invincibility.

Fortune comes to a joyous heart!

Before leaving, Tao Qian too experienced a moment of mischief, brewing some schemes in his mind.

He gave Xiu Zhonglin a mysterious smile, leaned in, and whispered:

"I once encountered an old predecessor like you with a hypocritical demeanor. Your esteemed self, being so well-learned, must surely know of him: the esteemed monk Bai Qin of the Great Freedom Temple."

"Back in Southern Yue, Elder Bai Qin also boasted before me, but in the end, he achieved nothing, meeting a death that wiped away his path."

"Now, the fortune and blessings upon me far exceed Southern Yue. Predecessor, you insisted on troubling me, I fear you too will face adversity."

Taken aback by this sudden curse, Xiu Zhonglin hesitated.

Realizing something was wrong, he was about to take harsh action.

But just at that moment, a Divine Light appeared before him.

Ziyan smoke spiraled up, and radiance shone like jade. The Spirit Light first knocked him staggering and then snatched back the Yuan Gong Statue from his grasp.

Then, a wildly joyous laugh echoed through the heavens.

"Hahaha... Thanks to Master Xiu for drawing these brainless fools, the Mutated Blood Beasts, to this place."

"This desolate land is perfect for my actions."

Before the laughter faded, the shocking Spirit Light leaped up suddenly.

In a moment, it turned into a speeding comet-like purple moon, charging towards the thirteen Cultivation Tribulation Fallen Cultivators of the Ultimate Happiness Realm gathered together.

With neither sound nor warning, wails filled the air.

The dense pollution and substantial tide of flesh were blasted with a big hole, utterly unstoppable and breaking through with ease.

Having firmly pinned the blame, the Spirit Light did not linger for battle, dragging Tao Qian away and instantly leaving Anqing behind.

On the Seven Fragrant Car behind him, Xiu Zhonglin's expression drastically changed.

In a single breath, he unleashed over a dozen Divine Powers at Tao Qian, but not one seemed to affect him.

Even his divination and predictions were clouded in fog.

Telling the Seven Fragrant Car to chase, the treasures that had previously been pinpoint accurate were now being pulled in circles on the spot by the green ox, trampling the muddy plum blossoms into a complete mess, without a trace of their former elegance.

"Immune to All Techniques!"

"Oh no, it's the Spirit Treasure Divine Light. How is this possible?"

"What is the origin of this child, to be protected by Lingbao Tianzun?"

As Xiu Zhonglin yelled in alarm,

The truly dire consequences arrived.

The thirteen Ultimate Happiness Realm monsters sent by the Alchemists, although none perished when hit by the Divine Light, found one severely injured and four affected by it.

In their previous lives, they were all exceptional individuals, all leaders.

Now mutated and fallen, their minds were hardly functioning correctly.
