Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 1074 - 679: Heavenly Venerate’s Aid, Golden Immortal Ensnared

Originally, there was a father-son karmic entanglement within Daluo Mountain, but once Tao Buddha's son, disguised as Taixu Master, began to speak, the situation was immediately elevated to the level of world survival.

At this moment, Li Jing also did not care to discipline his own troublesome child but rather, along with his master Transcending Calamities Immortal, pulled Tao Qian away from Daluo Pass and headed towards the capital city Haojing of the Zhou Dynasty.

That location is the base of the Primordial Sect within the Search God Realm, housing a Magic Veins ancestral court known as the "Fengtian Commanding Divine Dao, Overseeing Ten Thousand Immortals and Guarding the Eight Directions," the Jade Capital Golden Palace. Completely modeled after the Primordial Heavenly Venerate Daoist Field [Yuxu Palace], the Golden Palace is currently populated by avatars of the various immortals of the Primordial Sect, including projections of the twelve direct disciples of the Heavenly Venerate.

Li Jing, having been conferred the title "Demon Suppression Heavenly King" by the Primordial Sect, held a not-insignificant position within the sect.

He too knew that the Primordial Sect entered the Search God Realm for reasons similar to All Heavens Buddhism.

Now seeing that Spiritual Mountain has taken the lead, silently carrying out their poisonous scheme, and is about to form an unstoppable mighty momentum, he naturally felt anxious.

Tao Buddha's son, disguised as Taixu Master, also understood this, which is why he appeared at this crucial juncture.

However, this trip after all is to meet [the Twelve Golden Immortals].

It's important to know that those twelve are all direct disciples of the Heavenly Venerate, their status equivalent to the second-generation founders of the Spirit Treasure Sect, or powerful figures like "Master Ma Yi."

Without mentioning their cultivation, each is also a seasoned Old Fox.

One moment of carelessness, and exposure is inevitable.

Deceiving Li Jing is trivial; it's deceiving those twelve that is the real challenge.

Even though they are all avatars, it's enough to make Tao Qian feel a bit restless, unable to resist urging the true self:

"True self, are you capable, has the Sect Master gave you a definite sign."

"If unable to deceive those [Twelve Golden Immortals], this Mystical Pearl Avatar will likely be completely exposed at that Jade Capital Golden Palace, possibly even implicating me, the son of Tao Buddha. I have heard those twelve old fellows of the Primordial Sect are all exceptional ruthless characters, fiercer than Senior Sui Chaozi whom Teacher Duobao invited to assist in the past."

"While the risk is great, the reward is substantial. If we fail, the cost won't be small either, you must pay attention."

Inside the Ascending Immortal Star Acupoint, hearing the Demon Child Body's rambling, Tao Qian couldn't help but roll his eyes and say: "You rascal, you are panicking now that the matter is at hand, why didn't you tremble when bragging earlier."

Though complaining about the Demon Child, Tao Qian also understood the stakes involved.

He felt no panic in deceiving the Spiritual Mountain's Buddhas because the Golden Cicada Monk lent his name as a backing, and the level only reached this point, without actual confrontation with beings like the Buddha Venerable.

This time, however, is very different.

The Taixu Master to be impersonated is a "Primordial Remnant Cultivator" with no backing.

Plus, he must face the Twelve Golden Immortals directly who will surely verify his claims, not to mention the possibility of them consulting [the Primordial Heavenly Venerate], an exposure would be hard to manage.

Fortunately, he was not alone in participating in the deception.

After speaking, he immediately sent a thought saying:

"Rest assured!"

"The Sect Master has decided to aid us, personally persuading the Heavenly Venerate. Several days ago, the Heavenly Venerate set off to Yuxu Palace, inviting Yuanshi Tianzun, and went together to the Daoist Field of Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad, claiming to conduct a Three Pure Ones mystical discussion and jointly discuss the Great Calamity and so forth."

"This discussion will inevitably last a hundred years."

"For the Twelve Golden Immortals to verify your identity as 'Primordial Remnant Cultivator,' they can only proceed based on the 'Primordial Heavenly Venerate discussing Daoist Fruit Mysterious Scripture.'"

"You indeed have cultivated this scripture, more genuine than gold."

"Seamless as heavenly clothes, no need to panic."

With the thought transmitted from the true self, Tao Buddha's son immediately relaxed.

After pondering for a moment and feeling there was no flaw in the plan, he couldn't help but teasingly say: "The true self is indeed the First Heavenly Pride of Daoist, the True Monarch of Suppressing Evil of Spirit Treasure Sect, truly favored in Penglai Sea, such thick blessings even extending to my Demon Child Body's avatar, even the Spirit Treasure Sect Master and Lingbao Tianzun are willing to step outside to deceive others on your behalf. Not even Teacher Duobao enjoyed such treatment, truly envious."

Upon hearing this, Tao Qian rebuked: "You rascal, too much nonsense, the Sect Master and Heavenly Venerate cannot bear to see All Living Beings of the Search God Realm destroyed by the hands of Spiritual Mountain's baldpates, thus borrowing our hands to save people and the world. You must conduct yourself carefully, don't make mistakes, nine truths and one lie, deceive those Twelve Golden Immortals, and the matter is half accomplished."

...

Amidst the quarreling and bantering between the true self and the Demon Child Body, the group was riding clouds and mists.

Within several hours, they left Daluo Pass and entered Haojing.

Because of the urgency of the matter, Li Jing and others didn't bother with the formalities of hospitality, skipped the cumbersome rituals, and without properly introducing the scenic beauty of Zhou Country to the honored guest "Taixu Master," they applied the Secret Technique upon entering the Capital City. Suddenly, heaven and earth shifted, colorful clouds rolled, fragrant mist opened, and a majestic and grand Jade Capital Golden Palace filled with Primordial Daoist Charm was revealed.

Accompanied by the resonating welcoming bell, Tao Buddha's son, disguised as Taixu Master, was promptly ushered into the hall.

This Golden Palace, after all, is modeled after Yuxu Palace, and even with Tao Qian's insights, he was still amazed by the many mysterious and divine wonders it contained.

Before he could fully survey it, his gaze was instantly attracted to the twelve divine figures radiating golden light nearby.

Although Tao Qian knew each was a projection, not their true form.

In this moment, seeing them still caused his heart to be greatly startled.

Every single one of the twelve emitted Daoist Charm and power far beyond his own.

The one at the center, draped in golden light, was stunning, a middle-aged Daoist of great presence, clad in a Sweeping Cloud Immortal Robe, surrounded by several strands of exotic treasure light, with astonishing Sword Intent swirling behind him, unknown pupil skill granting his eyes the ability to peer into the Nine Heavens above, see the Netherworld below, and all worldly changes and secrets seemed unable to escape his scrutiny.
