Chapter 578: Chapter 382: Many Mighty Figures Seek Revenge, Master Tao Faces Calamity at Wutong_3

Tao Qian spoke as instructed, his voice echoing resonantly.

A bizarre scene abruptly unfolded.

The suddenly widening gap that was about to project the Devil God’s image fiercely stagnated.

After trembling a few times, the majestic demon aura imbued with rainbow mist actually shrank back.

This unexpected event left the five princesses dumbfounded, wondering why their father would do this? Hadn’t he decreed just moments ago that he would send an avatar to leave behind this thief?

Only when the escaping thief’s final booming laugh echoed did their confusion clear.

"Ha ha ha!"

"My master once said, if the Devil God cannot change his fierce exterior and his habit of hesitating because of fear, no matter how many daughters he has, he will never be able to step into the Realm of Tribulation Immortal."

"A line is still a line; a false immortal is after all not an immortal."

After dropping such a deeply insulting piece of advice for the Devil God.

The Spirit Treasure True Inheritor, known as the ’First Heavenly Pride of Daoist’, Tao Qian, transformed into a streak of starlight, and amidst the trembling earth, he instantly escaped, disappearing without a trace.

Members of the Ancestor Dragon Society, including Yin Susu and her sisters, didn’t need to think twice to guess the reason behind the Devil God’s last retreat.

It seemed Tao Qian had chanted the Boundless Spirit Treasure chant, invoking their mighty backer, Lingbao Tianzun. Even though the Heavenly Venerate was not present and wouldn’t descend, it was enough to frighten the Devil God into retreating, not wanting to intervene further.

For a moment, the five Devil God Princesses felt the contemptuous glances directed at them.

Although the Devil God was nearing the power level of a Tribulation Immortal, being labeled "cowardly" did not prevent others from despising him.

Fortunately, at this moment, a few strange cultivators spoke up, defending the Devil God:

"This indeed shows a flaw in the mental state of Senior Devil God, but it is also his path to longevity. It is said that Senior Devil God has lived beyond two thousand years, while his contemporaries, those powerful beings, have long perished in numerous disasters."

"Senior Devil God made a wise choice. Although Lingbao Tianzun may not descend into this world, the name of Tao Qian must be remembered by the Heavenly Venerate. Anyone who kills him will have to face not just Duobao True Monarch’s schemes, but possibly the heavenly punishment from the Heavenly Venerate as well. Who would want to bear that? Who could bear that?"

"Unlike Evil Sect, Great Freedom Temple, and the Xiu Family that have backing from Tribulation Immortals or even more... With no such support, Senior Devil God does not dare to act recklessly and opts to preserve his safety when intimidated, which is normal."

Hearing the first two sentences, the sisters felt somewhat comforted.

The third sentence, however, made them feel uncomfortable again.

Apparently, they hadn’t expected that one day, the mighty Devil God would be criticized for lacking foundation?

...

Tao Qian had fled thousands of miles away with a single thought and wasn’t aware that because of him, the Devil God had been ridiculed.

At this moment, his face showed much reluctance; he hadn’t lied in his parting words.

There was still much to be done after the success of the New Moon Uprising.

If it hadn’t been for an irresistible external force, Tao Qian would have preferred to stay and continue working with Chen Xiyi, Lin Bujue, and others.

Having realized his own heart, he was no longer indecisive.

Although from an outward perspective, the Ancestor Dragon Society’s "New Moon Uprising" had less impact and reputation than the Demon City incident or the Yang Sui Uprising.

But Tao Qian was well aware of the extraordinary significance of this uprising.

He even felt a premonition: this event might become a landmark, marking a turning point for some kind of transformation.

Of course, he could no longer participate now.

With hordes of enemies seeking revenge, each of whom he couldn’t overcome, his only choice was to flee.

Had it been earlier, Tao Qian could have only rudely used the Escape Skill of Star Zha to flee.

But now, things were completely different.

While the Evasion Light was still in the sky, Tao Qian deployed many tactics.

First, he took out the [Golden Radiance Token] and sent a message for his master to assist, to cover his destiny and invert the Heavenly Mechanism.

Then, he added another layer of security by using the Secret Demon Inversion Technique.

Still not enough, he used his usual method, summoning more Substitute Demons, Illusion Demons, and the like, each pulling a strand of Tao Qian’s breath and fleeing in all directions.

After using the blinding technique, Tao Qian gave a sinister smile.

This time, he took out a newly acquired treasure, one of the Nine States’ Twelve Treasures, the [Yu Ding].

"Had I not obtained this treasure, escaping amidst so many powerful enemies would indeed have been exceedingly difficult."

"Now, though!"

"Who in the world could find me?"

As his words fell, Tao Qian leaped into the Ding.

The Small World of Chaos, where clear and turbid qi surged simultaneously.

In an instant, both the Heavenly Mechanism and fate that enveloped Tao Qian, were completely shielded by this treasure born from sensing Human Dao Destiny, capable of suppressing the world and refining myriad evils.

Close to New Moon Province and even within the province’s borders.

Two strange alchemists!

High monks from the Great Freedom Temple!

Primordial Demon True Monarch Lingwa!

Xiu Zhonglin and Zhuge Qingyi!

These mighty figures, simultaneously, let out annoyed exclamations.

Even Duobao True Monarch, who was far away on Golden Radiance Island in Penglai Sea, suddenly stopped swaying his large hairy legs in surprise, exclaiming, "This lucky bastard, what kind of treasure has he obtained now? Even my Divination Technique is temporarily blocked, extraordinary indeed."

As Tao Qian, mentioned by so many powerful beings, entered the Yu Ding, the first thing he thought of was to find a secluded Spirit Land.

He had just entered the Cavernous Mystery Realm and urgently needed to retreat to assimilate his gains and tally his benefits.

Just as he was considering where would be suitable, suddenly, three territories emerged in his mind.

Among the gains from joining the Ancestor Dragon Society: he had learned the whereabouts of three of the Nine Toad Sect’s locations.

One of which was in Next New Moon Province, within the vast Tiannan Province.

Coincidentally, Tao Qian calculated that a place called "Immortal Crane Mountain" was just hundreds of miles away.

Within the mountain was a temple called Wutong Temple, whose temple master self-styled as Wutong Master, purportedly studied the authentic Daoist Great Book, but in reality, practiced Evil Techniques, commanding three hundred disciples, all of whom were Demons and Ghosts transformed into human form.

Widely known for their evil deeds and countless sins, they deserved to encounter disaster and lose their lives and treasures.

"Wutong Temple, Wutong Master."

"Heh, your doom has come."

As the words echoed in the Ding, the Yu Ding immediately transformed into a subtle treasure light and flew straight toward Immortal Crane Mountain nearby.
