Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 608 - 397: Swallowing Heaven and Devouring Earth, Consort of the Buddhist Sect (2nd Update, Please Subscribe!)

Great Master Tao had his script ready, and fate was sealed for all.

Nearly all Demons and Evil Cultivators in the surrounding area of Guangping City had gathered for this joyous banquet, making it convenient for Tao Qian to act.

At that moment, he allowed his killing intent to surge within, continuing to masquerade as Wutong, riding on the momentum of "having consumed Deng Xuechao," performing a completely out-of-control, Mutated, and Fallen Great Demon.

Coos echoed, reverberating throughout Guangping.

Accompanied by a sky of blood-red brilliance that dyed the Taiyin Star red, the main hall of the City Lord Mansion was utterly shattered.

A One-Horned Demon Toad resembling a barbaric behemoth of ancient times crushed Ghost creatures and sent Devil Blades flying.

Bulging, lantern-sized, and violent toad eyes stared unblinkingly at all the living creatures around.

Although it included the Mortals within the city, if there were a need to kill and feast, it would naturally prioritize the tastier surrounding Demons first.

A moment ago! All Demons thought to share a piece of the spoils.

This instant! There wasn't even enough time to flee.

Without any pause or cushion, all witnessed a flash of red light as a Transcend Mortality Realm Jiao Demon, which had shown off prominently at the banquet and was only second to the Four Demons, was wrapped by a crimson tongue covered in sharp teeth and fleshy growths, and then was violently dragged into the Demon Toad's belly.

A gulp sounded, swallowed down, sealing its fate to death and oblivion.

It should be known that this Demon had a background, self-proclaimed as the Six-Headed Daoist, an Alien Species Dragon Beast who occupied a mountain stream with spiritual water two hundred miles outside of Guangping City for its cultivation.

Inherently lustful and fond of eating humans, openly, it was friends with Gao Buxi.

As it was being devoured, the Jiao Demon revealed its true form, its body stretching dozens of feet, adorned with dragon scales and horns, and indeed six dragon heads—no wonder it was called Six-Headed.

Given time, it would likely become a renowned Great Demon in the future.

Unfortunately, unlucky for it, having attended the banquet meant entering a calamity; once caught in calamity, how can one escape death?

Not to mention it, how many within the mansion could survive?

After devouring its small appetizer!

Tao Qian playing Wutong didn't utter a single word, simply spewed forth a Treasure Bead from his stomach, which transformed into a blood moon; the crimson moonlight enveloped the City Lord Mansion, turning it into a deadly Barrier.

Tens of thousands, perhaps millions of Evil Money Copper Plates, poured down like a torrential rain.

This time, even Li Fengxian and Qu Zhongyuan, the two Demons, had their expressions drastically change.

"Not good! It's Wutong Old Monster's 'Evil Money Barrier,' let's break out of here."

"We can't escape—everybody, let's quickly join forces to slay Wutong, otherwise we'll all die."

The two distinct choices were made clear after the resounding cries.

The solitary Dog Demon Li Fengxian chose to flee.

In contrast, Qu Zhongyuan, who was the Clan Leader of the Qu Clan and had a family to consider, surprisingly chose to fight.

The former's choice was not wrong, the right decision of wise self-preservation, the method of survival.

Within the Cultivation World, regardless of good or evil, unless absolutely necessary, they usually wouldn't lightly enter into conflict with others of equivalent strength, let alone a life-or-death conflict.

After all, a minor injury could turn into a chronic disease, and heavy injuries necessitate a terrible price; no one knows if, due to unbalanced repercussions, one might meet their death one day.

But even while surviving cautiously, there needs to be decisive action taken early.

Qu Zhongyuan indeed possessed some exceptional wisdom.

Wutong was already powerful and adept at Subterranean Evasion Speed, and after mutation, his strength increased further, consuming the Old Turtle Demon and growing yet again.

In other words, fleeing was meaningless, only to be killed and devoured one by one by Wutong.

The only chance of survival: collaborating with all Demons to kill Wutong.

Especially as Qu Zhongyuan believed there was another powerful ally: Gao Buxi, wielding the Xuan Yin Blood Frost Saber.

This Lord of Guangping had the power to slice through the skin of Wutong Old Monster and the continually falling Evil Money Barrier; so even if the united Demons could not kill Wutong, as long as they held on for a bit longer for Gao Buxi to come to the rescue, chances of survival would emerge.

What didn't Qu Zhongyuan realize?

Right then, Gao Buxi couldn't even rise from his bed, let alone know that his own ranks were being slaughtered to near-extinction.

So, what came next was predictable.

Slaughter!

A one-sided massacre that took place within the blood moon Barrier.

The giant toad Tao Qian had become strolled leisurely inside, reducing the entire City Lord Mansion to ruins, carefully avoiding where Gao Buxi resided.

Gobbling one after another, with each lash of the tongue.

It was plain to see that the mutated Wutong Old Monster had lost all humanity, lost all sense of Mind.

The spectacle was clearly one of relishing the slaughter and the devouring.

In reality, of course, that was not the case. All the Demons who seemed to have been swallowed by the One-Horned Demon Toad actually fell into the Valley God Gui; their flesh and blood transformed into Five Grains Essence, Immortal Elixir.

...

Roughly an hour later, the slaughter neared its end.

This was the outcome after the Demons realized they couldn't break the Barrier and gathered the will to fight to the death, otherwise, they wouldn't have lasted even that long.

Additionally, there were two tough nuts to crack inside the Barrier.

Devouring Ghosts Master Qu Zhongyuan!

The spirit Dog Demon Li Fengxian!

Both with reputations, out of the hundreds of Demons and Evil Cultivators who came to the Gao Family's celebration, aside from these two, the rest perished.

Such a massive slaughter should have left the ground littered with corpses and the air filled with the stench of blood.

What was eerie, though, was the absence of that.

The ruins of the Gao Mansion were spotlessly clean; not a single piece of a broken body was to be found. Instead, what covered the ground, wedged into the corners, and stuck to the eaves were countless Evil Money Copper Plates.

This sight was bizarre and sinister.

The two Demons confronting Wutong observed the scene inside the mansion, feeling their scalps tingle.

"What on earth has this old monster cultivated? Not only is his appetite huge, but how can he eat so cleanly?"

"Damn it, why is he only targeting us? Though many of the city's inhabitants have fled, they are merely flesh and blood; they walked in on two legs, how far can they run? With so much to consume, why isn't this old monster going after them?"
