Chapter 1550: Chapter 445: The Five Turmoils of the Chaotic World! The Ancient Immortal Body! Gary Smith, Descending as the Dragon Emperor!_2
The Taoist boy was silent, feeling that he was born in the wrong era.
After that bizarre sickness occurred hundreds of years ago, the mortal world had turned into a chaotic era of strife, where everything was off balance and yin and yang were in disarray.
All Dharma veins had lost their connection with their patriarchs and seldom received responses.
Had it not been for receiving talismans from the immortal gods, allowing magic to still be used, and the occasional intrusion of an Outer World Demon loudly claiming they came from the future, they would have thought they were abandoned in this narrow world.
However, the biggest problem seemed to have appeared after that thing appeared...
"Could it be because of Its influence!" The Taoist boy thought of something and turned his head in horror, looking toward the foot of the mountain. His eyes swirled with magical power.
Suddenly, he noticed that the originally harmonious village became dim.
One by one, the villagers’ coarse cloths became ragged, revealing rotting flesh studded with feathers as they labored passionately, completely unaware of their abnormality.
But in those fields, every time a hoe struck down, it would splash fresh blood.
And the ravenous young boy eventually couldn’t resist, his neck began to elongate like a snake with a human face. His mouth opened wide, a slender red tongue extended, split at the tip like a hagfish from the sea, it effortlessly tore off as tough-as-stone cured meat and rolled it back into its mouth, closing its eyes with a satisfied expression.
As they swallowed the ghostly food, their flesh trembled and sprouted more feathers, looking particularly grotesque.
But soon, that joy was scattered.
Because he was slapped on the back of the head.
"Who is it!"
The young boy angrily turned his head, but when he saw the figure behind him, he shuddered in fright, reverting to his original form and respectfully lowering his head, "V...Village elder!"
The "village elder" behind him, a more bloated, gray-feathered flesh mountain with an elder’s skull, his gaze cold and angry, berating those farmers for only knowing how to hoard food, scaring them into shrinking together like quails, seizing any untouched cured meat.
He satisfyingly placed a piece into his mouth, and as he left, he glanced at the old Taoist on the mid-slope, his gaze dissatisfied.
This guy, daring to bypass me, is overstepping!
"We’re in trouble!" The Taoist boy felt a chill down his spine.
But seeing the old Taoist gesture towards him, indicating a wrapped gift, the village elder’s expression eased slightly, and he turned to leave.
"Master..." The Taoist boy looked solemn.
"Almost thought Xiao Quanzi drank too much human energy, his brain solidified, couldn’t even distinguish whether they were human or not," the Taoist laughed while stroking his beard.
"My name is Li Quan, Xiao Quanzi are those eunuchs in the palace," Li Quan corrected and continued, "What’s the matter with them? Since they’re demons, why do they still have human energy?"
"This world is like a prison, with constant warfare and disasters. Unless it’s in a capital city where the human path suppresses, how could there be such a peaceful place? Maybe it’s time for people to perish," the Taoist sighed.
Li Quan seriously said, "If heaven and gods are unseen and unheard, and cannot be sought, it’s an indeterminate state that cannot judge victory or defeat or control life and death. If there’s a disease, there’s a cause, remove the cause, and it naturally reverts to normal; there’s no ailment that isn’t curable, it’s all in human efforts."
"Good point on human efforts, worthy of being my Seth Lim’s disciple. We cultivators should hold the ways of heaven and defy fate," Seth Lim clapped his hands in satisfaction, explaining, "You know your teacher can fly, yet I chose to walk, fearing to scare away our target."
"Awaken...the mountain?" Li Quan exclaimed, "Isn’t that thing dead already?"
"Yes, do you remember? Ever since that headless corpse was unearthed, it caused turmoil and spawned countless strange creatures. Finally, the Four Great Law Veins and the former royal family temporarily sealed it. People closer to it could comprehend the great Dao, so they balanced the limbs and torso, thus birthing a new strange law in this diseased area, which should now be called the Righteous Filth Law, spawning countless other skewed laws. The former royal family, due to sweeping the strange domains suffered heavy losses, leading to their extermination by the new royalty, the emperor hanged himself. The most powerful torso fell into the new king’s hands, suppressing fortune, but unexpectedly he managed to usurp the throne, intimidating an era. Under the suppression of the iron cavalry of that dynasty, the Four Great Law Veins could only bow down, offering up the limbs of ancient immortals, which should now be escorted to Zion.
And among them, the right arm held by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory’s Taoist lineage, was stolen by that family’s monstrous pet who swallowed a finger. Though it was quickly discovered and subdued, the finger couldn’t be recovered, presuming it was digested.
But it couldn’t deceive our Observatory of Opportunity Theft Sect lineage, feeling its energy still existed, that guy was planning to hide it, wait for the storm to pass, and swap it out; unfortunately, he was killed halfway."
Seth Lim stroked his beard, somewhat pleased, then solemnly said:
"Look carefully; it seems that the stubbornness of that monster influenced that finger. The disease spreading from the mountain has already tainted the Green Mountain, clear waters, and every person in the surrounding villages. They indeed are still alive, but they exist in a demon’s dream, corroding the present world, and maintaining a balance between life and death.
Once we uncover it and break the balance, it might trigger that finger, turning thousands of miles around into a domain of ghosts."
"What!? This must be considered a Demon King level threat, shouldn’t we report to the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to handle it?" Li Quan exclaimed in surprise.
"Fool, we’re from the Observatory of Opportunity Theft Sect, not some noble and righteous sect, plus those guys are even darker than the Demon Gate," Seth Lim glared at him disdainfully, speaking sternly, "This time, we’ve made a huge sacrifice, using a piece of waxed meat to help you gather the essence of the ancient deity’s finger, condense out the Top Level Talisman Seed, laying the best foundation."
