Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 1050 - 662: The Burning Lantern Was Originally the Ancestor of the Spirit Coffin, and the Demon Child Sets a Trap to Fool the Crown Prince (Part 3)
The strange old man seemed to possess a type of Subterranean Evasion Divine Skill, moving freely throughout the mountain, and it was precisely his relentless persuasion that turned back the mountain spirits and demons, and the Wild Gods and Immoral Sacrifices who came to seize the Immortal Plant.
The Third Prince witnessed this scene and immediately became furious.
He showed no hesitation, stepped forward, grabbed the old man, his face full of malevolence, exuding a killing intent, and said:
"You old thing, it seems you are the mountain's Wild God, the Land God, known as some 'Grass Robe Old Man'. In the past, I have spared you local Wild Gods during the temple destruction because I considered your continuous Cultivation, only slaying the Evil Gods and Demon Gods."
"Not knowing gratitude is one thing, but daring to ruin my plans, seems like you're tired of living."
"Fine, I'll fulfill you then..."
The mountain's Wild God, called Grass Robe Old Man, was naturally fragile and easily frightened. After the Third Prince's words, he was immediately filled with tears, his Dharma Body trembling, nearly dying on the spot.
However, he quickly recovered a bit, remembered that he had a support, and hurriedly shook his head desperately, denying any evil intentions, repeatedly crying injustice:
"Third Prince, I am wronged!"
"It is not this Little God who wishes to spoil the Crown Prince's interest, but the Upper God has given orders, and the Little God must comply."
"Upper God? Is there really an Upper God in Daluo Mountain?"
The Third Prince suddenly became a bit interested. He didn't think there were any formidable gods or demons in Daluo Mountain, only considering it a fortunate escapee, a convenient outlet for his anger, ready to be slaughtered.
But very quickly, as Grass Robe Old Man spoke again, revealing everything, the Third Prince's murderous intent gradually faded, replaced by intense curiosity.
"Let the Third Prince know, nowadays, though the Search God Realm is dominated by Daoist Lineages from the Great Abyss, there are indeed experts and True Practitioners within this realm."
"Take, for example, this Daluo Mountain, where one Taixu Master who attained enlightenment thousands of years ago resides. It is rumored that this Upper God early on inherited the Dao Fruit from the Source Sea God Demon Yuanshi Tianzun, possessing unparalleled Taoist power and unfathomable Divine Skills, more importantly, recognized by this realm's Heavenly Dao, able to casually perceive Heavenly Mechanism without backlash."
"Within this realm, and even outside the realm, any suffering, misfortune, or confusion can be resolved upon seeing the True Master."
"This Little God has been stuck at a boundary for a hundred years, and just days ago couldn't resist setting up a ritual, praying for the True Master's guidance. The True Master showed pity and pointed a bright path, saying this Little God only lacks a bit of Earth Immortal merit to Breakthrough, and that a fortuitous opportunity is present, as the Demon-suppressing Third Prince would come to Daluo Mountain to lure and kill Evil Demons for amusement."
"In the past few days, there were only those deserving Evil Demons and Sinful Spirits; therefore, it was left for the Third Prince to kill."
"Only on the third day, after the first instance, there were no more Evil Demons to kill, and those lured were common mountain spirits and wild monsters, unworthy of death, but could be saved one by one, thus this Little God could..."
Halfway through Grass Robe Old Man's explanation, the Third Prince's interest was already intense.
As Grass Robe Old Man spoke of the last point, suddenly his Dharma Body trembled, with Source Qi surging within, easily achieving Breakthrough.
This scene unfolded, even surprising the Third Prince himself.
His brow furrowed, his heart questioning:
"How is this possible?"
"Not to mention that my cultivation of the Taiyi Daoist Skill can render various Heavenly Mechanism calculations ineffective, even my Dharma Body transformed from Innate Wood Spirit is Immune to All Techniques and cannot be predicted."
"In the Earth Immortal Realm with so many experts, hardly anyone can calculate my intentions, let alone in this Search God Remnant Realm on the verge of total collapse?"
"This Taixu Master, claiming to have inherited the Dao Fruit from Yuanshi Tianzun, who are they really?"
"If they truly possess such mysterious abilities, it would be great, and I could seek their counsel on how to overturn the damned Linglong Treasure Tower and slaughter that Li Jing."
"If they truly can offer a brilliant plan, no matter the strange background, I would also willingly pay them a visit."
