Longevity Chronicles
Chapter 546 - 370: One Against Ten, Yellow Robed Divine

Even without Yuan Gong's reminder, Tao Qian knew the danger.

The moment he had freed himself from the grasp of the mutated fallen demons, one look was enough for him to ascertain their dire situation.

Most members of the Ancestor Dragon Society had already revolted.

Apart from Foundation Establishment and Transcend Mortality cultivators who could not participate in battles of high-level cultivators, the number of cultivators on the opposing side who had reached the Cavernous Mystery Realm had grown to nearly thirty. Each one of them had an extraordinary background, not the easy-to-deal-with loose cultivators from the wilderness.

On their side, although they had Tao Qian, Zhong Ziyang, Chen Xiyi, and Qi Daozhen—four from the Cavernous Mystery Realm—plus Shen Ruolan, who was also ferocious in battle, how could five or six people oppose thirty?

If it came to a life-and-death combat, the outcome would likely be grim.

Naturally, if they wanted to escape, it was not particularly difficult.

Regrettably, Ying Qingdi, having slaughtered the last shred of his humanity and wholly embraced the will of the Evil God, had regenerated flesh and blood and become a true descendant of the Yellow Robe. He was likely to "spread the teachings," extend the Yellow Robed Origin Qi, and even break the world barriers to introduce his father into this world.

The current Ying Qingdi, devoid of humanity, obviously would not regard the Human Clan as his kin.

In his eyes, all were merely provisions.

However, compared to the chaotic and insane Ying Qingdi, he was different at this moment.

Suddenly, he reached out his hand, and with a motion, the massive "Ancestor God Tablet" from the ruins of the Overlord Palace smashed into Yu Ding and moved in a flash, leaping to Ying Qingdi's side.

The next moment, he took the initiative to reach out to the tablet.

A thick burst of yellow Evil Light flashed, and the names of ten individuals, including "Lin Runiu" and "Zhong Ziyang," listed at the forefront, were directly erased.

Immediately after, he said to the ten people:

"Everyone, please withdraw."

"I do not wish to contend with you, nor do I desire to harm your lives."

"Erasing your names from the Ancestor God Tablet ends our karma here."

"How about that?"

These words, unexpectedly, not only surprised Tao Qian and his group of ten.

Even Yin Susu and Xu Wenkai, who had long conspired behind the scenes with Ying Qingdi, showed shock.

But quickly, they guessed the reason: each of these ten came from prestigious groups such as Taishang Dao, Fangcun Mountain, Toad Sect, Canxuan Sect, Demon Slaying Lineage, Spirit Coffin lineage, Shaoqing Sect – wasn't each of them a venerable force? Killing one or two was still manageable, but killing all would surely bring great disaster.

"It's better to let them go, best to let them go."

Yin Susu and others thought thus in their hearts.

Meanwhile, Tao Qian, Zhong Ziyang, and the ten of them exchanged glances, beyond surprise and anger, more filled with indignation.

"Originally, we thought Ying Qingdi, having severed his humanity, might become a chaotic lunatic. Such beings, though terrifyingly destructive, could still be dealt with in numerous ways."

"But now, this descendant of the Evil God only lacks humanity but his cunning and brutality have increased rather than decreased, even knowing to use stratagems."

"The New Moon is in peril, the Seventy-two provinces are in peril."

While thinking this, Zhong Ziyang continued to watch Ying Qingdi intently.

But no matter how he looked, whether even using secret skills, all he could see was a descendant of the Evil God exuding mutated contaminated Origin Qi.

Although that appearance, that demeanor, that Qi, were all Ying Qingdi's.

But Zhong Ziyang also knew, the Ying Qingdi in his heart, was already dead.

And his death must have been filled with despair.

"Mr. Ying, I know your final wish, and I will fulfill it for you."

This thought arose in Zhong Ziyang's heart, overflowing with killing intent.

He and Ying Qingdi had always been known as the two great pride of the Ancestor Dragon Society, with equal cultivation and battle prowess.

However, in truth, Ying Qingdi was superior by a notch.

Especially after losing his weakness, this slight gap had widened even more.

Feeling the killing intent brewing inside Zhong Ziyang, Ying Qingdi immediately knew the answer, sparing no words, and immediately made his move.

In the flickering of dense yellow Evil Light, he suddenly slammed a palm onto the Ancestor God Tablet.

Instantly, the names of hundreds of heroes on the tablet all lit up with dazzling brilliance.

One by one, corrupted by the Evil Light.

With each "name" corrupted, the person bearing that name would burst forth with dense yellow Evil Light.

Like flesh, the Yellow Robe wriggled and grew, dense yellow flesh buds proliferated, and that terrifying Yellow Robed Evil Seal, insect-like, emerged, climbed, and burrowed into the flesh and orifices.

Most members of the Ancestor Dragon Society had already defected to Ying Qingdi's side.

Only a few remained neutral, due to the many changes occurring in such a short time, not knowing who to believe, thus caught in a dilemma.

Who would have thought?

Suddenly, they were backstabbed by Ying Qingdi.

They were all individuals of remarkable backgrounds and impressive cultivation and divine skills. Once transformed into Yellow Robed Slaves, it was, of course, a great advantage for Ying Qingdi.

Under normal circumstances, no one could stop Ying Qingdi.

After all, these names, they wrote voluntarily and even received the immense and rare benefit of [Outer Realm Origin Profound Qi] after writing.

Having received the benefits, there were risks and costs, and now was the time to repay.

However, there were exceptions, as Tao Qian, Zhong Ziyang, and the group of ten had premeditated plans against Ying Qingdi, naturally they were prepared.

Just like in this moment, seeing Ying Qingdi's move.

Almost simultaneously, Zhong Ziyang also reacted.

"A creature without humanity, you're dreaming."

"Taishang Infinite, the Great Dao boundless."

"Flee!"

The Taishang True Inheritance, naturally, had means beyond the imagination of ordinary cultivators.

Underneath the tablet shining with Evil Light, suddenly, a Divine Talisman appeared, emanating Dao Power instantly transformed into a massive [Taishang Infinite Dao Array Map]. The surge of Dao Power, capable of startling even Tao Qian, wrapped around the Ancestor God Tablet and immediately pulled it deep into the array formation.

With a flash of brilliance, the Divine Tablet vanished.

This was precisely what Zhong Ziyang had planned, using the precious treasure [Taishang Infinite Daoist Talisman] to directly teleport the Ancestor God Tablet into the sect's Secret Realm of Taishang Dao.
