Longevity Chronicles
Chapter 1072 - 678: Taixuan Turns into Taixu, Demon Child Tricks the Heavenly King
Daluo Mountain, within a hidden valley.
With a commanding presence that intimidates the eight directions, the Eight-Armed Demon-Suppressing Third Prince is simultaneously calling the never-before-met Tao Qian as 'old brother', while chattering annoyingly, telling him to quickly run away.
Unbeknownst to him, right beside him in the void, there are three figures silently observing.
Two of them are none other than the Third Prince's parents, the Demon Suppression Heavenly King Li Jing, and Lady Suzhi.
Being called an 'old thief' incessantly by his son, while his body still bears many charred marks, Li Jing's mouth twitches, gritting his teeth, he coldly snorts, "Wretch."
Tao Qian couldn't care less to look at him, his gaze directly falls upon the other old Daoist nearby.
This Daoist, with black beard and hair, bare chest, wearing Ma Yi, straw sandals, a wide nose and broad forehead, a smile at the corner of his mouth, two long black eyebrows hanging down, exuding an aura of freedom.
Judging by his "Qi Mechanism", though he is not a True Practitioner of the Daoist sect, he possesses Pure Spirit Immortal Qi, with Dao Rhyme circulating, infinitely profound, could he be a Loose Immortal who has attained Daoist Transformation?
Who could it be?
Taiyi Rescue Suffering Immortal is inevitably Daoist Transformation, but he is a second-generation ancestor of the Primordial Sect, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals, his demeanor should indeed be more grand and terrifying.
Just as these thoughts sprouted in Tao Qian's mind, the Divination Worm Silk conveyed a piece of secret information, though with difficulty:
"This Daoist is a Loose Immortal in the Earth Immortal Realm, West Kunlun."
"An ancient Qi Refiner who attained the Dao, with the Dao title of [Transcending Calamities Immortal], his cultivation field is Nine Cauldrons Iron Mountain, Eight Treasures Cloud Light Cave, he possesses vast divine skills, numerous friends, and has deep ties with Taishang Dao, Primordial Sect, and Spirit Treasure Sect."
"Demon Suppression Heavenly King Li Jing is his disciple."
"My goodness, are they really this concerned about me, a Taixu Master?"
"Not only did Li Jing and his wife come, but there's also a genuine Daoist Transformation Realm Immortal Monarch accompanying them."
"To be able to hide from the Third Prince's [Innate Wood Spirit] perceptive abilities, this must also be the Daoist Lord's divine skill."
"Thanks to the Divination Worm Silk's ability to borrow the power of the Heavenly Dao to conceal, otherwise I fear I would have been exposed too."
With these thoughts, Tao Qian hurriedly withdrew his prying gaze, to avoid inadvertently alerting the Daoist Lord.
However, the appearance of this [Lord of Transcending Calamities] actually made Tao Qian's mood better.
His interaction with the Third Prince, giving an Innate Fire Pill of such value, was not truly to vent anger for this brat.
The fundamental purpose was naturally to officially connect with the Primordial Sect through the Demon-Suppressing Li Family, gaining absolute trust, which would then facilitate him to sow discord between the Primordial Sect and All Heavens Buddhism.
Previously, he thought it would be quite troublesome to accomplish this.
Now with a Daoist Lord who has an excellent relationship with the Primordial Sect present, it's the perfect opportunity to put on a show.
"The Li Family probably wanted to lure out a big fish hiding its head and showing its tail, why not fulfill their wish, and I'll transform into a koi, taking the bait willingly."
"Now that the Spiritual Mountain is expanding greatly, on the surface the Primordial Sect says nothing, but in private, they must envy greatly, just without a good excuse to act, if at this moment, a local immortal of the Search God Realm unexpectedly appears, having discovered the nefarious plans of All Heavens Buddhism, and this immortal happens to be a fellow of the Primordial Sect, the scene...."
With his mind made up, Tao Qian didn't delay any longer.
He first had the Divination Worm disguise him well, then decisively responded to the Third Prince's ritual.
In the next moment, within Daluo Mountain, suddenly there appeared an extraordinary sacred presence.
Just then, countless celestial sounds echoed through the mountain, divine light pierced the skies.
Amidst the vast commotion, the void opened wide.
Instantly, within it appeared a cultivation field seemingly hidden in a Paradise of the Heavenly Dao's secret land.
This Daoist field, resembling an Immortal Realm, was filled with Dao Rhyme that felt extremely familiar to the Third Prince and the three silently observing individuals.
"Primordial Daoist Charm? And at least Daoist Lord level Daoist Charm."
"How is this possible?"
The three were all astonished.
Then they saw that Daoist field, a mystical immortal cliff, an ancient temple, suddenly from within strode out an elder with an immortal demeanor, ancient features, untouched by worldly dust.
This elder directly exited the temple, transitioning from void to substance as he approached Daluo Mountain.
As he walked, he chanted: "Upper Yuqing, celestial blessings, Primordial Refining God, my Dao flourishes...."
Hearing this Dao Formula song, the four already bewildered individuals in the valley felt even more tumultuous in their minds.
Especially the three hidden ones, whose exchanged glances revealed their current thoughts:
"Husband, though I have not heard this song before, judging by the Dao Rhyme and mystery, it should be a profound Daoist Scripture from the Primordial Sect."
"It must be so, indeed a secret Daoist Scripture of our [Primordial Sect], I've never even heard of this scripture, I fear only my Master Taiyi Rescue Suffering Immortal knows its origin."
"Hearing such tone, it should be the Daoist Scripture personally imparted by Yuanshi Tianzun, as earlier Lady Suzhi calculated using Emperor Wa Divine Skill, the expert advising the Third Prince harbors no ill will, and has extremely deep ties with the Primordial Sect, it seems the calculation was not wrong, this Daoist might indeed be a secluded practitioner from the Primordial Sect."
"Judging by the location of his Daoist field, and his age, this fellow Daoist should be a local cultivator of the Search God Realm, and achieved Dao long ago."
Obviously, the three were instantly awed by Tao Qian's disguise, not discerning any flaw.
However, they cannot be blamed, it was indeed Tao Buddha's cunning.
This rogue felt that a lone Taixu Master wasn't convincing enough.
So, this time he directly transferred the appearance and Dao Rhyme of the [Taixuan Feathered Immortal Monarch], downgrading from Tribulation Immortal to "Daoist Transformation Realm", covering himself entirely.
Transform Taixuan into Taixu.
What is to pass off the false as the true, this is exactly it.
