Longevity Chronicles

Chapter 944 - 606: The Jade Pillow of Myriad Desires Displays Its Power Again, Forcing Guanyin Into a Dream

Search God Realm, Liang Country, Langya County.

On this day, outside the county city, great fires scorched the sky, and people throughout the city came to watch.

Earlier, when the county was under the rule of the Seven Slaughter Kings, every man, woman, and child lived in fear, dreading every day. Now they returned to their old expressions, due to an unforeseen event. The former King of the Li family, along with the Crown Prince and Princess, descended upon the county city and summoned the powerful God Demon [Peach Blossom God] with the respect due to a Goddess. In a moment, they subdued the Seven Slaughter Kings and his seven adopted sons and a million-strong demon army.

And now, it is Enlightenment Day.

One could see on the plain outside the city, a giant stele inscribed with the "Killing Curse" standing like a torch, with a vast array below it bursting with Divine Light. Inside, endless flames surged, scorching and melting the giant stele. Whenever the flames began to wane, one Seven Slaughter Soldier after another would be thrown into the array, using their body and soul to ignite new flames.

These Evil Ghost Bodhisattvas, who once filled the fields with killing, have now become mere fuel.

Even the "seven adopted sons" who betrayed Zhang Xianzhong couldn't escape. Although they had the thought to resist, they had already succumbed to Peach Nightmare Poison, their Dharma Bodies and Heart Souls entirely controlled by Tao Buddha's son, such that all their struggles were in vain.

This grand spectacle was to appear and be maintained for a full 24 hours, which exhausted all the current strength of Tao Buddha's son.

The Divination Little Worm, having grown into a "colossal entity," coiled in the sky. Insect Silk blocked out the sun, completely severing the bloodline connection between these God Demon Clans called [Bodhisattva Group] and the Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva, preventing that Lord Bodhisattva from remotely commanding the Bodhisattva Group to rebel or even to descend upon the body.

The array melting the Seven Slaughter Stele below also has a story, named [All Heavens Secret Demon Burning Body Demon Flame Array]. It was originally intended to perish together with enemies. Once deployed, it lured enemies in, then used the body as the trigger to unleash endless Demon Flame. If the power was insufficient, they could entice Outer Realm Demons as additional fuel.

Tao Buddha's son altered it a bit, using it directly as a furnace to melt the Seven Slaughter Stele, an exceedingly remarkable effect.

Outside Langya County, it's as if a "Flame Mountain" had descended, its fierce flames heard even in other counties of Liang Country.

Once the fuel is exhausted and the fire extinguished, the giant stele imbued with the Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva Divinity will be sacrificed to the Search God Realm Heavenly Dao, and the Ultimate Happiness Perfect cultivation of Tao Great Demon Tao, along with his personal treasure bag, can be recovered.

Even so, at this moment, Tao Buddha's son still furrowed his brow slightly, quite a bit uneasy.

Recalling the shared information from the main body, he couldn't help but grumble:

"My main body is utterly useless; sending Yunrong to contact Yuan Mingzhen on a favor?"

"Rivals in love meet, and the eyes turn red with rage."

"If those two women clash out of sheer jealousy, wouldn't it ruin everything?"

"If it were me, I would write a letter directly, expressing old feelings to that Devil Concubine Yuan Mingzhen. Moved, she would return to Guanyin Temple. With her great background, she would request Guanyin Master to take action, effortlessly resolving any difficulties with no loose ends."

"He even talks about Daoist Peach Blossom; his skill level still needs improvement."

...

In Tao Buddha's son's chatter, 24 hours swiftly passed.

After a full day's burning and scorching, the towering [Seven Slaughter Stele] finally became completely carbonized, turned into a piece of pitch-black charcoal covered with fire patterns, crumbling into a flurry of powder at this moment, amidst the thrilled gaze of the city's inhabitants, dissipating into the sky.

The essence of the Seven Slaughter Divinity contained within it also went entirely to the Heavenly Dao of this realm.

Seeing this, Tao Buddha's son no longer posed as the Ruyi Book Immortal but reverted to his handsome demon form and shouted to the invisible Heavenly Dao in the sky: "My dear child, this meal should be fulfilling enough; hurry and return to your father all my precious belongings."

The Demon was crude; if such an offense was committed in the Longevity Realm, he would inevitably suffer Heavenly Punishment.

Yet in the Search God Realm, the Heavenly Dao Origin indeed relished it.

During these days of numerous trades, in days to come, the incorruptible Heavenly Dao Origin might be corrupted by the Demon's "sugar-coated bullets."

Of course, this transaction, in particular, was quite fair.

It must be understood that the Seven Slaughter Stele contained the Divine Origin Qi personally infused by the Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva entering the world, along with a large amount of clan bloodline. It was, so to speak, an advance investment by the Seven Slaughter Bodhisattva, not a small sum, and it initially shouldn't have been obtained by the Search God Realm Heavenly Dao.

Tao Qian employed tactics, and the Heavenly Dao naturally reciprocated.

In the next moment, Langya County suddenly manifested numerous extraordinary phenomena, with streaks of Divine Light intermixed, descending directly into Tao Qian's body.

Cultivation fully restored!

Treasure bag reclaimed!

This scoundrel needed no lesson in villainy; he was cunning to the core. Leveraging the Heavenly Dao Origin, he directly used the Divination Worm to brainwash all the commoners of Langya County.

Various illusions related to Peach Blossoms erupted, delighting every man, woman, and child with full devotion, all chanting the revered name of the Peach Blossom God.

When it came to "playing god and ghost," Tao Qian reckoned himself not inferior to anyone.

Originally, he didn't have these pretentious notions. But this time, with such a smooth scheme against the Seven Slaughter Army, Tao Qian realized how convenient it was to operate in the Search God Realm with a facade of God Demon skin, so he simply went with the local customs.

"As Tao Qian, I can't use the title [Spirit Treasure Subduing Evil Lord] of the main body, nor derive the slightest advantage from it. Fabricating and promoting the fame of the Peach Blossom God is surely more delightful."

"My Peach Blossom God Sect doesn't need much else, just needs more Goddesses and Saintesses..."

"Hmm? Bad! The debt collectors have arrived."
