Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 286 - 207: The True Face of the Absolute Immortal, Heavenly Venerate Dividing Treasures_3
The rosy light that served as their guide lifted them upwards, and astonishingly, it was actually a giant golden silkworm that was larger than the mountains, fat and plump, and corpulent. Yet at the same time, its body was shimmering with billions of golden light points.
It writhed within the Tianhe, worming and pupating.
The scene was not frightening but rather comical and ridiculous, making one unable to resist the urge to go have a look.
It wasn’t until the next moment that Senior Brother Xuu Xun once again transmitted his voice:
"This is Golden Silkworm Master. Do not be fooled by his seemingly ridiculous appearance. One more glance and you all will realize how formidable he is."
"Those specks of golden light are called ’Life-breaking Divine Light.’ If even one point penetrates one’s spirit, and if you cannot resist, it will consume a year of your lifespan. If you are exposed to too many, even a hundred lives will not be enough to bear the loss."
As usual, Tao Qian was all ears.
His knowledge had increased again!
At the same time, he couldn’t help but mutter to himself:
"Uncle Wu Chao, the Three Stars, the Golden Silkworm Masters—before their fall, they must have been true powers of the Daoist. Once mutated, they became more demonic than demons themselves."
"No wonder when I first sensed Uncle Wu Chao’s aura, I found him far more terrifying than Bai Qin."
"Not only him. During the decisive battle in Southern Yue, any one of these three would have been able to wipe out that battlefield clean. Truly frightening to the extreme."
"Roar!"
Just as Tao Qian finished muttering to himself, he heard a familiar roar and saw the scene.
Looking up, sure enough, he saw an immense elephant entering the rosy light, half flesh, half bone, with large white maggots where flesh and bone connected.
This time there was no need for Xuu Xun to introduce him, as Tao Qian had once swallowed the hot eyeballs of Nursing Woman Bird Demons.
He naturally knew the details of this Absolute Immortal called "Spirit Elephant Daoist," having even witnessed the horrific sight of him devouring hundreds of thousands at once. However, he had not expected that this Spirit Elephant Master would be able to persevere for ten years and participate in this ultimate struggle.
The same was true for the ones to follow, like Willow Immortal and Lady Shi.
But after these individuals, there were others who he did not recognize as his senior masters.
One by one they came!
Extremely powerful and extremely frightening Absolute Immortals, with the guidance of the rosy light and the Dao Song Rhymes, stepped through the Heavenly Gate, heading to the Outer Realm, all in the hopes of seizing a sliver of survival.
What were the odds of success?
Upon this thought, Tao Qian could not help but shake his head.
"Judging by Aunt Bai Yin guarding Spiritual Tablet Island, the odds of failing in this ultimate struggle are far too high—perhaps one in a hundred survives?"
"Or even, more tragically—just a bit."
As Tao Qian lamented,
The last Absolute Immortal called Master Fire Spirit, was, under the farewell of Dao Song Rhymes, stepping through the Heavenly Gate, leaving no trace.
The song that echoed through the Penglai Sea suddenly ceased.
The Ten Thousand Immortals meeting, seemed to have ended?
Just as Tao Qian was thinking this, suddenly, his opportune master announced in a loud voice:
"All disciples, please be seated. In gratitude for your chanting of the Dao Song Rhymes and seeing off the senior masters—"
"After a moment, the grandmaster will scatter some treasures down, for those of you who are destined to retrieve them."
Upon hearing these two sentences, the mood of sorrow and solemnity that had prevailed before the Biyou Palace was instantly swept away.
A great number of disciples showed an excited and expectant look.
The distribution of treasures by the grandmaster!
The weight of these four words was undeniably significant.
Even Tao Qian and the other True Disciples could not help but harbor some expectations then.
Sure enough, within a moment’s passing,
As the Heavenly Gate that was slowly closing and disappearing, a great expanse of treasure light suddenly showered down.
It began like stars shining in the sky, and soon all the glimmers fell, revealing a multitude of treasures, each with a different shape and aura within them.
The grandmaster’s distribution of treasures naturally would not allow the disciples to scramble for them, and as the treasures fell, they each chose their owner.
They adorably landed in the hands of one disciple after another.
Almost, yes, nearly every disciple received a treasure.
All were Exotic Treasures that would not hinder the disciples’ cultivation, and were extremely useful.
However, there were those in the crowd who did not receive a treasure.
"Am I... being retaliated against?"
From within the array of True Disciples, as Tao Qian looked at his empty hands and then at his Master’s eyes clearly suppressing laughter, he immediately felt a desire to cry but no tears came.
