Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 288 - 208 Demon City Opportunity, Mundane Transformation_2
"Aunt Yunhua, like Master, is also of the Ultimate Happiness Realm in terms of cultivation,"
"But the killing power of the two, far surpasses that of ordinary cultivators of the Ultimate Happiness Realm."
"Whether it’s the gossips spread by those Nursing Woman Bird Demons or the lectures given by Xiao Hua Daoist, they all indirectly described the terror of these two."
"Not to mention the inexpensive Master, just Aunt Yunhua alone."
"When she sets up her array, she could block the Xie Family’s thousand-year-old gate for days... With such might, although it still may not be on par with Daoist Transformation, the difference can’t be much, right?"
"Her willingness to give me this promise is naturally because of Senior Sister Xie Lingji’s matter."
"It seems that she might have obtained some results, and could possibly save Senior Sister Xie?"
"But listening to her last words... she doesn’t seem to have much confidence either. This promise shows the position of Senior Sister Xie in Aunt’s heart, truly extraordinary, and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say she regards her as her own."
"But with such a powerful ally on my side, doesn’t it mean that entering the world for training should not be too difficult?"
Thinking of this, Tao Qian’s face did not show joy, but instead he frowned slightly.
A sense of warning arose in his heart, and he quickly understood.
Aunt Yunhua’s solemn promise is just like that of brother Xuu Xun.
It could be appreciated, but should not be relied upon too heavily, nor casually employed.
Otherwise, it would hinder cultivation.
Thinking this, Tao Qian immediately relaxed again, placed the jade firmly into his chest, and said to Aunt Yunhua with a serious expression:
"Aunt, I am unworthy of your kindness."
"I wish Aunt a smooth journey, and you will surely be able to save Senior Sister."
The fluctuations in Tao Qian’s qi could not be concealed from Duobao and Yunhua.
Hearing him, both nodded in approval, especially Yunhua, whose face showed an even richer smile as she exclaimed and lamented:
"What a good child, no wonder my brother relied on the power of Divination Technique to forcibly intercept you."
"But that’s fine. If I can save Lingji on this trip, I can let you and Senior Sister get to know each other a little, and there might also be some other karmic connections."
After saying this,
Aunt Yunhua did not delay any longer, her figure suddenly turned into a wisp of cloud and vanished in front of Biyou Palace.
Clearly, she had been eager to leave the Mountain Gate, only staying longer due to the two grand assemblies.
Once Yunhua had left, Tao Qian immediately went in search of his thrifty Master.
Perhaps because his embarrassing past was overheard by his disciple, as Tao Qian looked up, he saw Duobao Daoist yawning, rubbing his ribs, and giving him a sidelong glance. With two powerful strides, his figure gradually faded away.
Before disappearing, a few serious admonishments that only Tao Qian could hear came through:
"Good disciple, if you trust your master’s Divination Power, remember this: You must not utilize Aunt Yunhua’s solemn promise."
"As for brother Xuu Xun, if you encounter someone difficult to defeat, you can ask him to help you. Don’t be fooled by his modest gentleman appearance, he’s very fierce in combat."
"Normally, a disciple entering the world for cultivation should be given some advantages by the Master... but you sly boy, let’s not even mention the Buddha Bird Relics, the Nine Toad Bead and the Holy Embryo Bag are enough to protect your life, not to mention you’ve also mastered the Secret Demon Sacrifice Body Sword Technique, and now you have received Ancestor Master’s Teachings."
"Daoist, Buddhist, and Demon cultivation, when I was at your level of cultivation, my divine powers were far inferior to yours."
"There’s not much I can give you, and to give would instead harm you."
After Duobao’s words fell, Tao Qian did not feel any sense of loss.
The thrifty Master had refined a Holy Embryo Bag for him before and had prepared everything needed for the previous two methods. It was Tao Qian’s own choice not to choose them, and he couldn’t blame anyone else.
Magical Treasure and Divine Skills, Tao Qian indeed lacked none.
What he lacked was cultivation, was experience.
He wanted to enter the world precisely for these reasons.
Just as Tao Qian was thinking this way, suddenly the voice of Duobao Daoist echoed in his mind again.
This time, he gave a rare sigh first.
"Karma, karma..."
"Now is a great era of strife and calamity, and in such times, as your master, I would stay as far away as possible to avoid being entangled in calamity and end up in ashes."
"But who made me a Master now, whether I will have to wield the Heavenly Punishment Sword to help you cut down enemies in the future, it’s not certain, but since you this unfortunate child must enter the world, I will calculate for you once."
"Good disciple, remember that the tumultuous world is not as peaceful as the Sect. I cannot predict what kind of danger you will face, or how much danger?"
"You just need to remember, after leaving the Penglai Sea, first go to Demon City... There, lies an opportunity that is extremely important for you."
The last sentence fell, and Duobao Daoist was truly gone.
Tao Qian raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, gaining a new understanding of his thrifty Master’s personality.
A typical case of protesting much but acting upright!
He spoke of laissez-faire, but in the end, couldn’t resist calculating once for his disciple, Tao Qian.
It seemed like not much, but Tao Qian knew.
This was the greatest advantage.
Duobao True Monarch of the Spirit Treasure Sect, aside from being famous for having many treasures, what truly made countless peers and even elders wary of him was his calculation.
In the Cultivation World, how many people would give everything they own just to have him personally take action once.
The saying goes that those who are close to the water get the moon first.
This time, Tao Qian truly reaped the benefits of having Duobao True Monarch as his master.
"Demon City! Opportunity!"
While muttering these four words,
He stepped onto an auspicious cloud and started heading back towards Ascending Immortal Island.
In his mind, however, he inadvertently recalled the time when the Heavenly Punishment Sword, Returning Immortal Mirror, and Ruyi Circle, the Three Immortal Treasures, led him back to the Mountain Gate, and he happened to pass Demon City during a royal wedding.
As the nominal ruler of Demon City and holding the title "Grand Admiral," the Ninth Prince had defeated the naval forces of the Western Countries, compelling a foreign nation to send a Princess for a marriage alliance.
