Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 165 - 145 The Name of Demon City Has a Reason, the Laws of the World Are Not Longlasting_2

"However, reinforcing the seal is indeed necessary, after all, it's a Buddha Treasure refined by the Great Freedom Dharma, and although you have branded your True Spirit into it, you haven't cultivated the profound Buddhist Law, and for the time being, you cannot unleash the efficacy of the Buddha Bird relic. On the contrary, it might even be used by the Great Freedom Temple to harm you in the shadows."

"Once you return to the Mountain Gate, it would be best to have the True Monarch deal with this relic."

"When you have entered the Cavernous Mystery Realm, the Realm of Ultimate Happiness, with this relic, you can establish a new lineage, and even become an ancestral master."

"The myriad Magic Skills contained within this Buddha Bird relic, if assembled together, could indeed be called the great 'Bai Qin Scripture.' Once this new lineage is established, although it cannot be compared with the major Buddhist Temples, it can still develop into a vast power, which would greatly benefit your Dao Path."

"Such a chance is something not even the True Monarchs encountered in their youth, and for a Qi Refining Realm child like you, your fortune is truly inconceivable."

"How odd, it really is strange."

"Little Peach, are you truly not some lost ancestor of my Spirit Treasure Sect?"

As he spoke, the Returning Immortal Mirror moved into view in front of Tao Qian, using its slick surface to reflect him.

This juvenile behavior was obviously not the first instance.

Several hours had passed since Tao Qian left Southern Yue, and through this time of interaction,

He had come to understand the personalities of the three Immortal Treasures that had come to guide him.

First was the Taixuan Ruyi Circle, which seemed like a sullen gourd; Tao Qian could sense it had a True Spirit within, but it never spoke.

While the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Slaying Sword's True Spirit seemed like an elder, not talkative, but extremely steady.

Only the Spirit Treasure Returning Immortal Mirror, it wouldn't matter if it were just talkative, but it even gave nicknames to people on a whim.

The victims started with Zhong Doudou, then Shan Jiu, Little Age and Lian Jing'er, none were spared.

And before even arriving at Spirit Treasure Mountain Gate, he, Tao Qian, had already acquired the nickname "Little Peach," his several protests all in vain.

If he didn't consider that he couldn't defeat this Immortal Treasure, he, Master Tao Da, would have already shown his might.

He had no choice but to ignore it and revisit the recent third calamity and many gains after overcoming it.

"The Buddha Bird relic is, of course, the greatest benefit."

"Then there's that Human Dao Destiny, according to the Returning Immortal Mirror, although most of the destiny was consumed by the relic, the small remainder was absorbed by my Taishang Spiritual Treasure No-leak Body, which could directly enhance my fortune, opportunities, and lifespan among others, all invisible great benefits."

"Besides these two, I've obtained a 'Joyful Zen Incarnation Secret Method' from Bai Qin, which is unlikely to be necessary, but it's good to learn more Secret Techniques."

"Just a pity, I didn't manage to learn that Great Freedom Heart Light Escape Technique, nor the whole set of that extremely effective Little Reincarnation Formless Secret Method, nor the 'Bu Jue Guanyin Root Seal' Bai Qin used to ambush the Beautiful Corpse... These Divine Power Skills are indeed high-end, and I envy them."

"But if I haven't learned, then I haven't learned. Once I join the Spirit Treasure Sect, there certainly won't be a shortage of such profound Magic Skills."

Upon this thought, Tao Qian's mood was excellent.

Through the auspicious clouds attracted by the Immortal Spiritual Qi around him, his gaze couldn't help but look down at the Shen Zhou Holy Land below.

After several hours of swift travel, the group had thoroughly left Daze Province and Southern Yue, crossing many provinces in between.

Such a journey, along with the splendid scenes glimpsed along the way,

made Tao Qian once again confirm: although there are some seemingly connections with his former world, this one is definitely a completely different world.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

First and foremost, size-wise, it's simply not on the same level.

Moreover, the local customs and practices of many provinces made Tao Qian feel alienated whilst broadening his perspectives.

Like the province named Daze Province they had passed through not long ago.

The territory was even larger than Southern Yue, famous throughout the world for its great rivers, lakes, and marshes, with extremely peculiar weather and customs different from other provinces, earning it the nickname 'Daze Water Country.'

There are quite a few provinces like Daze Province.

Tao Qian, along the way, took in everything clearly, enriching his knowledge greatly.

At the same time, it also made Tao Qian more aware of just how rotten and dangerous the current situation of the Longevity Heavenly Dynasty is.

"It's hard to imagine that the court could control such an enormous territory with dozens of provinces as large as Southern Yue and a population that might well exceed several billion. No wonder, with internal strife and external threats, it's not surprising that the dynasty is showing signs of imminent collapse."

"Throughout the journey across many provinces, although none were as chaotic as Southern Yue before, they were all not clean and pure."

"The Taiping Army, Devil God Army, White Lotus Rebels, and heroes... and so on, are innumerable."

"Some slightly smaller provinces have even been covertly controlled by 'modern warlords' like Ji Xianxian."

"And then there are the Western Countries, each seemingly has a force supporting it that is not weaker than the Buddhist and Daoist Sects; initially winning a war or two, but recently with the court taking action and the support of the Cultivation World, they have fought and won several major battles, severely beating the Western Alliance Army."

"After suffering such blows, the countries changed their strategies, and began infiltrating the Longevity Heavenly Dynasty by providing Western Cultivation Skills, Alien Technology, and many powerful weapons for the commoners to use, among other things."

"Including Southern Yue and other provinces, nowadays all exhibit a special climate of transition between old and new eras and the impact of Western influence."

"Complex, truly complex, with such significant epochal impacts arriving, I, a mere Qi Refining Realm cultivator, should quickly join the Mountain Gate and rush to Foundation Establishment, then Transcend Mortality, before charging towards the Cavernous Mystery Realm..."
