Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 261 - 193: Big Fish Hooked, Heavenly Punishment Beheads the Corpse

He was an Alien Species Immortal Corpse, moreover, his True Spirit had returned, and his combat power was unfathomably terrifying.

If the one who took action was Xuu Xun's master, Ma Yi Immortal, then Mountain and Sea Daoist would have had no power to resist.

But Xuu Xun alone?

Although he is the top true inheritor of this generation, he probably still fell short, and reality indeed confirmed so.

In a breath!

Just within a breath, everyone heard the sound of Xuu Xun's sleeves tearing.

However, it was in that short moment that Xuu Xun made a vicious move.

He suddenly raised his hand, and immediately, over a dozen beams of Immortal light and Divine Radiance shot out, each heading towards seven locations on Eight Immortals Island. Each Immortal Corpse was hit by more than one Magical Treasure, but these treasures did not come to ally but were sent by Xuu Xun's intent to smash.

Even Tao Qian, who was clearly having the upper hand, turning a perfectly good Master Jade Toad into a roasted frog, also received two treasures.

One artifact, adorned with a large amount of Black Stone and Green Jade was the Immortal Net, which bound the Jade Toad Immortal Corpse and immediately summoned a storm of thunder and lightning, turning it into a charred corpse in the blink of an eye. Another artifact, resembling a huge brick, began to smash down, golden sparkles splattering and loud booms resounding.

Sadly, this Immortal Corpse, without the control of a True Spirit, was not Tao Qian's match to begin with, and now being ambushed, looked even more pitiful. Yet, this Immortal Corpse was indeed very special; despite such treatment, it had little effect, other than turning into a pile of mush or a rotten meat pancake, it remained undying.

However, at this moment, neither Tao Qian nor the Jade Toad True Spirit were paying attention to this corpse.

They both looked towards Xuu Xun instantly; a breath, which for mortals passed in an instant.

But for powerful cultivators, much could be done.

After throwing out a mass of Magical Treasures to entangle the seven Immortal Corpses, Xuu Xun's sleeves shattered, Mountain and Sea Daoist was about to emerge, but by that moment, Xuu Xun had already moved to the periphery of Eight Immortals Island. His hand, wielding the terrifyingly powerful Supreme Virtue Ruler, suddenly struck in the void, and immediately, an invisible existence of a Forbidden Technique was forcibly broken by him.

At that moment, Xuu Xun turned his head to the others and shouted, "Fellow brothers and sisters, if we do not leave now, when will we?"

At this low shout, Tao Qian immediately discerned that Xuu Xun was now mana-depleted and extremely weak.

He also saw his torn sleeve, a terrifying shadow emerging from it.

Tao Qian wasn't the only one who could hear it; all the true inheritors could discern it perfectly as well.

The Jade Toad True Spirit saw through it at a glance.

That is why, at this moment, he was nearly driven mad with urgency, his transmission booming like thunder, echoing through Tao Qian's mind.

"Boy, you can't just leave him and escape from this Island."

"This child forcibly used the Universe in the Sleeve and the Supreme Virtue Ruler; he simply cannot withstand another strike from Brother Mountains and Seas. If you really leave now, he will surely die."

Before hearing this transmission, Tao Qian had already made his move.

In fact, on Eight Immortals Island, only his reaction was the fastest.

After all, the other seven Immortals were earnestly attacking the true inheritors; only the Jade Toad True Spirit had been dug out early by Tao Qian.

With Jade Toad treading water, it was naturally easy for Tao Qian.

Tao Qian had sensed something amiss the moment Xuu Xun appeared and shattered the Soul-falling Bell.

Thus, he had promptly left the Immortal Corpse that had been continuously pounded and teleported instantaneously towards Xuu Xun.

The moment Xuu Xun shattered the Eight Immortals Corpse Prohibition, and Jade Toad True Spirit madly transmitted his message,

Tao Qian had just arrived at his side, witnessing the robes tearing apart, even causing Xuu Xun's half arm to be swallowed by the Mountain and Sea Daoist in one bite. He saw that massive mouth open wide, about to swallow Xuu Xun whole.

Suddenly, at that moment, Tao Qian appeared in a flash.

To ensure the power of this strike, he had also heavily invested, borrowing immense mana from Lingbao Tianzun.

The Buddha Bird Relics were thus pushed to the limit, the already enormous Buddha Ape grew even larger, gripping the Vajra Demon-suppressing Stick that resembled a colossal pillar propping up the sky, and fiercely smashed it down.

"Ha, take this blow from Tao Qian!"

Amidst his Thunderous shout, it was just the right moment.

The Mountain and Sea Daoist emerged from his sleeves, swallowing half of Xuu Xun's arm, about to reveal his true form.

He was met head-on by the stick, imbued with immense mana. The Vajra Demon-suppressing Stick was no smaller than his Mountain and Sea Celestial Evasion Stake, with the immense strength of the Buddha Ape adding to its might. The pillar struck the ground, infinite cracks spreading in all directions, earth, water, fire, and wind surged forth, and the Mountain and Sea Daoist did not even have a chance to roar before he was smashed into the depths of the ground.

These rapid changes, though complicated to describe, ended in a matter of one or two breaths.

Everyone first saw Xuu Xun temporarily suppress the Eight Immortals with his own power, planning to sacrifice his life to rescue his fellow disciples.

At that instant, more than a dozen true inheritors frantically moved towards Xuu Xun.

But all were too late.

Except for Tao Qian!

Who would have expected that Tao Qian, ostensibly the least among them, would burst forth with such combat power?

Everyone watched those terrifying cracks that almost spread across half of Eight Immortals Island and in the depths of those cracks, the continuously expanding, about to emerge again Mountain and Sea Immortal Corpse.

While raising their eyebrows in surprise, they all simultaneously cast a look of undisguised admiration towards Tao Qian.

At this moment, all fourteen true inheritors gathered in the outer area.

Though it was somewhat regrettable for the several treasures tossed out by Xuu Xun, entangling the Immortal Corpse.

"But when it comes to treasures, life is even more critical," Master Yan Demon, Brother Wei, hurriedly said, "Everyone, take Senior Brother Xuu with you, let's leave quickly."

Just as Brother Wei finished speaking, the others were about to move.

Suddenly, it was Tao Qian who spoke again.

"No need!"

"The big fish has taken the bait, and the masters are about to reel it in."

Tao Qian's comments, filled with a desire to critique, seemed somewhat inexplicable to his fellow disciples.

Only at the next moment, all the True Inheritors followed his gaze towards the center of Eight Immortals Island.

There, there was a secret acupoint that led to the Outer Realm, also the source of endless corpse poison and miasma.

Senior Brother Xuu had once gathered it into his Sleeve Universe Divine Technique, but in the blink of an eye, it had refilled.

It was also at this moment that the secret acupoint suddenly exploded, and an immensely huge arm that could potentially seize eight Immortal Corpses at once violently reached in from the Outer Realm.

This arm, wrapped in coagulated pale liquid of corpse poison, entered this realm instantly, and as everyone's gaze penetrated the corpse poison to see the true nature inside, including Tao Qian, a total of fourteen True Inheritors simultaneously let out pained grunts.

The only difference was that after the grunt, Tao Qian shivered violently again.

Once immune to the contamination, he saw even more clearly.

That massive arm was divided into many layers, with the outermost layer being pale, pus-like corpse poison, surging like a heavenly river, whose extreme toxicity could likely turn hundreds of thousands of people into irrational, bloodthirsty zombies with just one drop; below that was a rotting flesh layer, where flesh had decayed into mud, and countless types of bizarre bugs and Alien Species were shuttling back and forth, mating and laying eggs, billions of poses, thousands of screeching intertwining, almost forming a mad cacophony of Evil Demons from the Outer Realm.

People of this realm who listened would only fall into madness and become Fallen.

Below the rotting flesh was an extremely hard, pitch-black bone, appearing as if numerous black faces were stacked on top of each other, constantly howling, crying, and murmuring.

Tao Qian listened even more clearly, even recognizing some familiar mnemonics among them.

"Dung beetles roll the ball, as the ball forms, pensive thoughts arise, and white worms dwell within the ball..."

As these words came, Tao Qian's mind immediately roared.

A confusion was resolved, while others surged anew.

Could the unknown fragmented formula actually be related to this Outer Realm Divine Corpse?

Although Tao Qian had not cultivated the fragmented formula that had allowed him to be reborn again, just like the Immortal Fish Technique.

But how could curiosity be stopped?

Likewise hearing the whispers accompanying the corpse poison were the other True Inheritors.

However, they did not hear as distinctly as Tao Qian and had to endure the contamination amidst those rustling sounds.

The True Inheritors first looked at that arm, then turned to Tao Qian, about to ask the reason when—

Suddenly, each person's body showed a disturbance as objects autonomously floated out.

Absolute Immortal Token!

Fourteen Absolute Immortal Tokens flew out simultaneously, forming an array midway, emitting a heavenly immortal light that enveloped the entire Eight Immortals Island along with that giant hand from the Outer Realm.

Once the array was formed, the eight frantically struggling Immortal Corpses simultaneously lost their resistance, returned to their true nature, and became actual corpses again.

The sudden change surprised the True Inheritors.

The hand from the Outer Realm was, after a moment of stagnation, immediately trying to retreat.

But how could it be in time?

Soon, a scene all too familiar to Tao Qian happened again:

Bundles of golden, shining radiance surged out from his Absolute Immortal Token, within which were hundreds of golden ropes filled with talismans.

Once illuminated by the immortal light, the golden ropes spread instantly, firmly binding the massive arm of the Outer Realm Divine Corpse.

Amid shouting, one Divine General after another leaped out.

The treatment once enjoyed by the Miraculous Tree Great Venerable was now the turn of this head, which roamed the Outer Realm daily as a Divine Corpse.

The difference was, as the two just began to pull and wrestle—

The rough voice of Duobao True Monarch came out from Tao Qian's Absolute Immortal Token again:

"Since you've come, you might as well stay."

"Last time, you old bangzi killed my Spirit Treasure Eight Immortals, and now I've only cut off one of your arms, which still leaves you at an advantage."

"But no matter, we'll save the rest of my grievances for another day."

As soon as those casually stated yet overwhelmingly domineering words dropped—

Another object leaped out from that Absolute Immortal Token.

It was the sheathed treasure sword, the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Slaying Sword.

Only unlike what had been seen before, this time, it was unsheathed.

Clang!

With a ringing sound, everyone saw a sword light with endless killing intent and boundless sharpness sweep across the heaven and earth, directly slashing at that terrifying and massive arm, immediately causing billions of painful screeches to echo. Before the True Inheritors could even see if this slash was successful, they saw another thirteen Absolute Immortal Tokens simultaneously unleash a torrent of formidable mana, enhancing the Heavenly Punishment Sword.

In a trance, everyone seemed to see the figure of their own master.

A total of fourteen Spirit Treasure Sect Elders, including the likes of Duobao True Monarch and Ma Yi Immortal, wielding the sword together.

Even if the Outer Realm Divine Corpse was personally present, it would likely have trouble gaining the upper hand.

Moreover, it was just one bound arm?

Instantly, with the heavenly sword light fleeting—

The arm was severed in an instant, and the secret acupoint that could communicate with the Outer Realm was shattered.

It was then that they heard Duobao True Monarch's frugal words again:

"Too polite, my fellow junior brothers and sisters. Actually, I could have done it alone—you know, just one old bangzi."

"With the Heavenly Punishment Sword, I could even finely slice it into minced meat for you all."

"Right, dear disciple?"
