Chapter 590: Chapter 388: God Wanders for 3 Days Contemplating the Future, The Treasured Carriage of Spring and Autumn Wishes to Choose a Master_2

"Even those with ambitions and means might think of temporarily collaborating with the Alchemists, planning to settle the scores later, not knowing that once the time passes, no one can settle the scores with the Alchemists."

"Just wait for the Forbidden Technique to be rebuilt, the barrier to be reinstated, Longevity to be established, the new Emperor to ascend to the throne... Evil Gods will not be able to interfere, the Alchemists will attain great merit, the cultivation costs delayed by those dozen or so old monsters will be largely offset, only leaving the mortals of the Seventy-two provinces to suffer, with more than half likely dying through these repeated troubles."

"The worse is yet to come, as the saying goes, ’a dog cannot change its habit of eating dirt,’ the cunning old Alchemists will not give up continuing to descend to the world, allowing them to participate in the reconstruction of the Ancestor Gods’ Forbidden Technique... Who can ensure they won’t tamper with it?"

At this point, Master Yuan said, and Tao Qian looked even more distressed.

With his wisdom, he naturally understood.

Unless something unexpected happened, what Master Yuan had described was very likely to become reality.

"This scheme can be implemented, provided that: the Alchemists make sacrifices."

"If it were any other time, those dozen or so crazy old monsters would not be willing."

"However, after the incident in New Moon Province, things are different."

"No wonder, although that group of old monsters fell due to power and strength, each was once a founder of a dynasty, unparalleled in the world; if they decide to temporarily suppress their greed, just any strategy of theirs could overwhelm you, a novice."

"For today’s plan, if you still wish to save the world, there’s almost only one path for you to take."

"Please teach me, Master Yuan."

Tao Qian didn’t even hesitate for half a moment, immediately asking for guidance.

Master Yuan did not keep him in suspense, quickly saying:

"Collaborate with the Primordial Sect!"

"In this world, the only major force that conflicts with the Alchemists’ goals must be the Primordial Sect, which has been brewing for years to return, to use the overwhelming Human Dao Destiny to re-enter the ranks of the Three Daoist Sects, and even directly surpass your Spirit Treasure Sect and the Taishang Dao; how could they let the Alchemists take all the credit and benefits."

"To save the world, to rebuild the Forbidden Technique, it must be the Primordial Sect to do it."

"In terms of resource base, the blood-sucking Alchemists for two thousand years may be stronger than the rundown Primordial Sect, but that group of cunning old turtles is best at gathering other powers, enticing various helpers; even if Yuanshi Tianzun must be busy in the Outer Realm, in this confrontation of forces, the victor should also be the Primordial Sect."

"If you, lad, are added, the result goes without saying."

"Me?"

Suddenly being praised, Tao Qian was a bit puzzled.

Master Yuan scoffed, almost sneering with sarcasm and enigmatic intent:

"Why? Perhaps you need to be modest."

"Speaking of which, you lad and the Primordial Sect are actually quite compatible—thick-faced, black-hearted, also good at pulling tricks and deceiving other powers, making use of various talents for your own purposes, and also quite adept at causing disruptions; any major matter touched by you turns sour, and many outstanding talents inexplicably lose their spotlight to you."

"No need for further details, just look at that poor Ying Qingdi."

"Then look at Kitten in your arms, you’re her dear brother after all. If you plead, perhaps this Female Demon will go back to Jade Ring Mountain to ask [Grandma Taizhen]."

"Let me, Old Ape, give you a tip, don’t look at Duobao being all confident, saying to everyone ’this treasure and I are destined’, ask him if he dares to go to Jade Ring Mountain to steal treasures?"

"But this fellow is indeed shameless; not daring to steal himself, he first sent you over to act as a son-in-law, thinking I, Old Ape, can’t see through his coveting the dowry of Jade Ring Mountain."

Hearing this, Tao Qian’s face relaxed slightly.

Although Master Yuan was habitually a homebound old demon, he had lived such long years, his insights were far broader than Tao Qian’s.

With just a few words, he broke the Alchemists’ overt plan.

Tao Qian didn’t need to think much to know that, by doing as he had suggested, he could indeed foil the Alchemists’ grand plan.

Considering the behavior style of the National Salvation Congress Daoists, the Primordial Sect was indeed a good partner; collaborating with them, even serving them, was not considered unreasonable.

If it had been the earlier Tao Qian, after hearing this, he would have followed the plan.

But at this moment, he thought of something else.

Great calamities, where do they come from? How can they be truly eliminated?

Today there is the Primordial Sect, and there is him, Tao Qian; even if they solve the calamity, a lot of people will still die.

What if one day they are gone?

Could there be a better way?

Could this realm’s situation for mortals be completely changed?

These thoughts surged like a tide when Tao Qian’s object of contemplation abruptly began to sink and change.

From Outer Realm Evil Gods, alchemists and various devils, a multitude of strong foes, many Talents... all the way, immersing into humans.

Or rather, mortals.

In a trance, Tao Qian seemed to return to Southern Yue Province, Seeking Immortal County.

When he was first reborn in this realm, he had borrowed the original body to resurrect and inherited that "Chengyou Bookstore," recalling those two friendly owners, the neighbors around, those who came to buy books, and also recalling the incident at the dock, the reactions of those originally peaceful common people encountering extraordinary power, those faces of despair...

"Immortal values life, immeasurable in saving people."

Unknowingly, Tao Qian uttered these eight characters.

Then, the next moment, his Taoist Body paused, his eyes slightly closed, and his Primordial Spirit was enveloped by a spontaneously emerged Innate Spiritual Treasure Qi, leaving his body and turning invisible, casting itself across the entire Longevity Heavenly Dynasty.

Almost simultaneously, Master Yuan and Yunrong both showed surprise.

Yunrong tilted her little head, both alarmed and delighted, said, "Divine traveling? Little brother just broke through the Divine Communication Barrier and can already traverse heaven and earth? Grandmother was right, Yunrong’s destined one is extraordinary, truly a peerless Talent."

Master Yuan was even more direct; the statue trembled, joyfully shouting, "Good lad, beginning to comprehend the Dao already? Ultimate Happiness Realm needless to say, but also great hope for Daoist Transformation Realm, excellent, truly excellent."

After Master Yuan unconsciously praised, he quickly recalled the eight characters Tao Qian mentioned before his Primordial Spirit departed.

His thoughts turned, and he vaguely guessed the direction of the "Dao" Tao Qian had touched.

Immediately he fell silent, muttering after a long while:

"Could it be?"

"This kid, could he be planning a rebellion... against the Heavenly Dao?"

Saying this, Master Yuan also felt a bit uneasy, said no more, only silently waiting for Tao Qian’s Primordial Spirit to return.

...

Three days passed in a blink.

This night, the long-silent White Jade Tower suddenly burst with Divine Light.

The figure seated on the White Jade Brick awakened.

The Divine Light filled with supreme Daoist mysteries spilled from Tao Qian’s eyes, the brilliance reflecting on his face where no trace of difficulty, confusion, and anger could be found.

It seemed that the many doubts and dilemmas troubling him had found their answers during these three days of divine traveling.

At least, he felt he had cleared the fog before him and seen the fundamental issue.

Before he could digest the new insights, a voice from Master Yuan transmitted from his bosom:

"Young man!"

"What kind of Dao did you comprehend, and what kind of Dao did you seek?"

In the voice, an uncommon fullness of worry.

Just as Tao Qian returned from his divine travel, Spirit Resonance in heart, he instantaneously understood Master Yuan’s thoughts.

Just as he was about to transmit reassurances, another side effect—or rather, another benefit—of his divine traveling suddenly struck at this moment.

Previously, because of his Human Dao Fortune, he had an inexplicable connection with the Ancestor God Treasure [Nine States’ Twelve Treasures], even directly knowing the exact locations of the other Twelve Artifacts and the conditions to obtain them.

Even when the time was right, he could summon the Divine Artifacts by reaching out his hand.

To him, phenomena like Divine Artifacts hiding themselves were ineffective, allowing him to consecutively obtain two treasures.

During these three days of divine traveling, he further established connections with other Ancestor God Treasures, producing vague responses, some already having a master, others not.

At this moment, sudden flashes of light jumped before his eyes, sending him a signal for help.

In his mind, a Record burst forth:

[Perceiving Divine Treasure... confirmed as one of the Nine States’ Twelve Treasures, the Spring and Autumn Chariot... this object is currently escaping from the Imperial City, soon to arrive in the neighboring province, Qiantang, having a temporary master.]

[The Spring and Autumn Chariot wishes to acknowledge a master across space but requires one condition.]

[Save the Divine Treasure’s temporary master: the nation-fallen Devil Concubine Yuan Mingzhen.]
