Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 959 - 618: The Descent of Ten Tribulations, Rebirth Heart Demon

"First, I deceive all living beings into believing, then I use the wish power of their minds to refine the Dharma Body. With just the first attempt at refining, I've obtained the Pure Yang Essence Root, Three Thousand Worry Threads, and Ten Thousand Marvelous Mysterious Pearl—three great divine alien objects. If I continue, eventually I shall refine all the people of the Search God Realm; it's probable that not only will I create a Dharma Body stronger than the Spirit Treasure Sublime Body, but I may also step into the Daoist Transformation Realm, or even the Tribulation Immortal Realm."

"Such evil techniques, who knows which talented master created them; they are truly exquisite."

"Unfortunately, the cost is high; such speculation can only be a fool's dream."

"However, this method is most suitable to be cultivated inside the Search God Realm, where the customs are 'divine power supreme.' It truly attracts the Source Sea Gods, and the key step of the Ten Thousand Refining Spirit God is to steal the essence of Qi from all gods. No other world inside the Great Abyss offers such convenience. Could this also be destiny's design?"

While Tao Qian praised, he also reflected on the drawbacks of this method, considering whether he could withstand them.

If he could endure, this technique was enough to help him attain the Dao.

At the thought of this, Tao Buddha's son became increasingly excited.

Though he was a fragment of the [Spirit Treasure Subduing Evil Lord], he was also considered an independent person. If he could find and realize the Great Dao belonging to himself, how could he refuse?

"This technique is easy to learn but hard to refine and should be carefully planned."

"The boundless pain brought by thousands of people together tormenting and ravaging the heart soul is one."

"Then there are the fundamental conflicts with the essence of all gods, the backlash after being disturbed by the minds of all living beings, the constant threat of falling into madness, and heart soul mutation... each price is not to be underestimated."

"Though self-proud, I'm clear-minded enough to know that my talent hasn't reached the extent of crushing all ancestors and other Secret Demon Children. Since most of them have given up halfway, ending hastily, there must be endless difficulties."

"For now, let's continue refining, responding to challenges as they arise. Fortunately, I have many trump cards and means."

With this thought, Tao Buddha's son immediately used his strong trump card.

He looked up towards the sky above the Imperial City of Liang Country, at the immense, pale insect, whose boundaries couldn't be seen, and bluntly ordered:

"Good insect, hold off on eating for now."

"Help me predict whether your master—me—can refine the 'Supreme Secret Demon Refining Spirit God Technique' to great success?"

"Whether the obtained Dharma Body can suppress the boastful Spirit Treasure Sublime Body of my true self?"

...

Tao Buddha's son achieved initial success in forming his Dharma Body, and immediately relaxed a bit.

Unexpectedly, the next day, he had to pay additional costs outside of the refining method.

Because his ambition was great, his true target was the 'Heavenly Dao Origin' of the Search God Realm, intending to swallow an entire realm; he didn't plan to recklessly exhaust resources and miss the greater opportunity.

Therefore, unlike other demon cultivators who consume or ignore those common folks and civilians assisting in refining the technique, he took a soothing and rewarding approach.

He didn't expect this move to be so rare, something even ordinary Good Gods couldn't achieve.

The saying goes, people who are kind get bullied!

God and Demon, likewise.

Within the Search God Realm, every member of the Human Clan was experienced.

Knowing they encountered such a divinely powerful yet benevolent God Demon, they wouldn't miss the chance, seizing the opportunity to exploit fiercely.

Thus, starting the next day, Tao Buddha's son was subjected to the "recitation by All People" punishment.

Within Liang Country's borders, a large number of believers simultaneously recited the "Peach Blossom Immortal Scripture" he concocted, while praying to him, the God Demon, for various benefits.

If it weren't for the Ten Thousand Refining Spirit God Technique, being recited wouldn't matter; the Peach Blossom God was his creation, so even if his main body was disturbed, it wouldn't affect him as Tao Buddha's son.

But this time it was different; refining the technique established a connection between him and these believers' heart souls, naturally allowing him to hear them.

The entire day, he dealt with this matter.

Matters like desire for food, fortune, offspring... and more were easily resolved, as many Peach Blossom Temples capable of utilizing all of Liang Country's resources weren't mere ornaments.

However, there was one matter that left Tao Buddha's son quite helpless.

The pursuit of a partner!

This was truly his deserved retribution.

Who told Tao Buddha's son to fabricate a name like Peach Blossom God instead of other God Demon names; it was no surprise the believers sought their god to grant them a partner.

Most requests were normal, nothing more than having the God Demon help find the most suitable one.

A few believers, being greedy, made various absurd demands, clearly custom orders... Requests from such people were nearly twisted and disgusting, shocking, and unsuitable for public announcement.

Some even rarer believers directly focused on the "Peach Blossom God" itself, requesting to become Peach Blossom Goddess or Peach Blossom Immortal Man, and accompany the God Demon.

"Women ask, men also ask."

"Humph, if I were truly a God Demon indifferent to warmth, embracing both genders, what of it? With the [Ten Thousand Marvelous Mysterious Pearl] as a divine alien object, just a few shakes would summon a million bodies, all transformed into wonderful flesh; every believer would get one, everyone would have a share, all could enjoy Ultimate Happiness, but alas, I am not."

"However, responding solely to female believers isn't good either. Though capable of night guarding a million women, I lack that interest or appetite. Besides, doing so has a high cost, likely reducing the Peach Blossom God in All People's eyes to an Evil God; the loss would outweigh the gain."

"Hmm? It must be this way then."

In thought, Tao Buddha's son took action.

With great divine power, he transmitted a message to all believers:

"Conjugal partners should be considered carefully."

"The regular recitation of Peach Blossom Scripture naturally brings harmonious connections."

"If wishing to gain a perfect Daoist couple, diligently cultivate the Peach Blossom Scripture, offer unique sacrifices, and when the time arrives, you may advance to become [God Demon Spirit Cultivation], obtain my teachings, and fulfill your heart's desire."
