Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 258 - 192: Abandoned Disciple with the Nine Toads, Duobao Goes Fishing
Looking at the Record that kept bursting forth in his mind, and guessing the twists and turns behind it,
Tao Qian's mouth twitched uncontrollably, filled with the desire to rant, which he couldn't suppress.
Could there be something wrong with this Cultivation World?
It seemed as if all the strong cultivators were accustomed to, and fond of, the fishing man's methods?
Although it appeared to be very effective,
if one became the "bait", then the experience wouldn't be pleasant.
"If I'm not mistaken, my master must have gotten involved as well."
"With his thick-skinned and black-hearted nature, if he had a chance to scheme against gods from the Outer Realm, it would be strange if he missed out on it."
Tao Qian continued to look at the Record, while sneering to himself inside.
At the same time, Tao Qian looked over the rest of the Seven spots on Eight Immortals Island and immediately realized that apart from Brother Xu Xun, whose life and death were unknown, the rest of the True Disciples were also embroiled in difficult battles.
The eight Immortal Corpses had been enhanced by Corpse Poison from the Outer Realm, and their strength had skyrocketed.
That was one thing; however, to Tao Qian's dismay, he spied the Divine Corpse from the Outer Realm sending the Eight Immortals' True Spirits back.
This news was even more distressing.
"There's a complete difference between zombies that can only act on instinct and those controlled by True Spirits with wisdom."
"Originally, the Eight Immortals Corpses, due to the lack of Spiritual Wisdom, had their power drop from the Ultimate Happiness Realm to the Cavernous Mystery Realm, unable to utilize their Divine Powers, left only to fight with brute force."
"Once the True Spirits return, even if they don't reach the Ultimate Happiness Realm, I fear they will be strong enough to crush everyone on the field, including Brother Xu Xun, Sister Golden Crow, and the rest of the True Disciples."
"Even at this critical moment, these fishing men still don't make a move?"
While these doubts arose in Tao Qian's heart,
suddenly, a change occurred in his perception.
This time, a group of True Disciples who Tao Qian was worried about—excluding Brother Ma Yuan, who had retreated behind him—all burst into action at the same moment.
Leading the charge was Senior Sister Lu, the Golden Crow Fairy.
A sudden screech pierced through the island; then, in one area, the pallid corpse mist seemed to be scorched by high temperatures, rapidly evaporating with a hissing sound, as crimson flames surged into the sky, supporting a terrifying red sun. In that sun, a giant black crow crouched formidably.
Golden Light flashed around it, and it had three legs beneath its belly.
Its beak clutched one of the Eight Immortals' Exotic Treasures, the Flower God Treasure Bottle.
Beneath it was the Baihua Immortal Corpse, whose fate was unknown, nearly roasted to a jerky.
Having temporarily disabled her opponent, Senior Sister Lu soared up, speaking in a human tongue, "Fellow brothers and sisters, leave this place swiftly."

Before her voice faded, Senior Sister Lu, showing her Golden Crow Dharma Image, began to circle the island.
Everywhere she passed, the land dried up.
Before everyone could marvel at this scene reminiscent of ancient myths, another roar was heard. On another side of the island, the corpse mist rolled violently, as if a massive being was swallowing it whole. In the blink of an eye, the white mist in that area was devoured, revealing a presence akin to a Demon God.
Black muscles with eerie purple patterns, clad in heavy armor, his eyes, and hair had undergone Light Transformation, with infinite Demon Light surging behind him.
No guess was needed; this surely must be Brother Wei, Master Yan Demon.
He was now serious, just like Senior Sister Lu, wielding his beast-head chopping knife. He chopped the Wind and Fire Master, who had transformed into an Immortal Corpse, into fatty pieces and snatched the Exotic Treasure, the Wind Fire Banana Leaf Fan.
After a cold snort, he headed straight towards the center of the island, clearly intending to chop down Uncle Mountain and Sea and rescue Brother Xu Xun.
At the same time, the rest of the True Disciples unleashed their might.
Tao Qian looked far into the distance and soon saw Brother Yu Chen releasing Five Elements Divine Light that illuminated the sky, Brother Yang Jie with his three-eyed Divine Light sweeping across the land, and Huang Zhen, who once again revealed his Mao Ri Dharma Form, among others.
These few breaths truly showed the might of the present generation of True Disciples of the Spirit Treasure Sect.
Clearly, in the face of life-and-death crisis, each of them had brought out their last resort.
In short, all of them were going all out... except for Brother Ma Yuan, who was somewhat unlucky. Without Tao Qian's help from the beginning, he bore too much during the sudden change, and his Dharma Image was damaged. Preserving his life was no problem, but unleashing his full might was difficult.
Tao Qian watched all of this with a bit of envy.
Compared to these True Disciples, who had cultivated for many years and possessed numerous Divine Skills and Exotic Treasures,
he, Master Tao, had relatively fewer methods.
Of course, if it really came down to a comparison, he wouldn't lose to any of them, after all, he was just at the Foundation Establishment Realm at the moment.
What's more, if Tao Qian disregarded all consequences, the Buddha Bird Relics weren't the only things he could use.
He had mastered the Vajra Demon-suppressing Stick skill of the Secret Demon Sect well.
He could strike with powerful sword light, but after two or three strikes, he would fall into a state of exhaustion.
Therefore, the Buddha Bird Relics were still more useful.
Thoughts flashed in Tao Qian's mind, but he didn't neglect to continue swinging the Vajra Demon-suppressing Stick, continuing to smash the one-horned giant toad into a pulp.
The rotten, pus-filled flesh burst out in lumps, chunks, and pieces.
For a moment, Tao Qian almost thought he was preparing a delicious dish, a traditional delicacy, hand-pounded meatballs.
Yet, oddly enough, even so,
the Immortal Corpse transformed from Uncle Jade Toad didn't weaken its Qi; instead, it continued to grow stronger.
"So strange? Normal devils, even those from the Cavernous Mystery Realm, like the Beautiful Corpse Bodhisattva, if they were smashed by me like this, would probably have perished long ago."
"Fighting like this, including myself, we are bound to be ground to death."
Tao Qian furrowed his brows, sensing something was amiss.
In the meantime, Tao Qian seemed to sense something else.
After once again smashing the Immortal Corpse beneath him, which was Uncle Jade Toad, into a patty, his gaze suddenly locked onto a certain area within the decomposing body of the giant toad.
