Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 1140 - 710: A Court Full of Evil Gods, The Secret of Spiritual Resonance (Part 2)

These, of course, both disgusted and thoroughly angered Tao Qian.

Whether staying in the Taichang Mansion or after experiencing those [Carnival Banquets], they made Tao Qian's Heart Soul tremble. He wished he could reveal his true face and sweep away the countless cruel and filthy things in the residence, as well as kill all those God Demon ministers at the banquet.

Alas, it is impossible.

He is alone and although he possesses the power of Suppressing Evil, he can't resist the entire Immortal Qin.

In fact, if he tears the face apart, with his current Divine Skills, he can only kill some insignificant Acquired Gods and Demons, but none of those Innate Gods and Demons at all.

Once something happens, he would have to escape.

He himself being trapped in Immortal Qin might have been bearable, but he also implicated Aunt Yunhua and Senior Sister Liu Yupu being trapped here, feeling quite guilty, he could only speak with the pair of master and disciple, planning to entrust them to the [Heavenly Consort] for protection and send them back to the Penglai Sea when the time was right.

The pair of master and disciple didn't mind at all, especially Aunt Yunhua, who most cared for him, the good disciple.

Seeing him somewhat restless in Spirit, she found an excuse to comfort him, wanting Tao Qian to chat with her, this aunt, about his experiences over the years, and about the current situation in the Penglai Sea, the recent conditions of Brother Duobao, and so on.

"If it weren't for the Senior Brother shamelessly cutting in, according to the original fate, you should have been my disciple of Yunhua."

"Since then, I have also treated you as my own disciple, originally intending to properly explain in the Penglai Sea and pass on all my Divine Power Treasures to you. Who knew that later I received news about Lingji, which prevented me from fulfilling my teacherly duties and consequently missed your Dao Path of cultivation."

"Now, your cultivation far surpasses mine, it must be the result of experiencing many disasters to achieve such accomplishments, speaking to your aunt, tell me about it."

...

Since Aunt Yunhua started speaking, Tao Qian couldn't refuse.

Just as he still needed to endure here, he found an excuse, saying he wanted to meditate for several days to concoct a [Nine Revolutions Spirit Immortal Elixir] for His Majesty, to harmonize the Spiritual Resonance.

In truth, he was merely reminiscing with Aunt Yunhua and Senior Sister Liu Yupu, recounting his experiences over the years.

Not having spoken of anything else yet!

Yunhua only listened to the calamities Tao Qian experienced in the Longevity Realm, and the series of changes following the reincarnation and cultivation of Duobao True Monarch, and her face couldn't help but reveal an expression of shock.

Then she heard about his marriage, the triple cultivation of the Three Teachings, the perilous Dao Nightmare, the Buddha and Demon dual embodiment in the Search God Realm both achieving Dao, his true body proving the Dao again, the Heavenly Venerate personally delivering the Suppressing Evil Seven Treasures...each event shocks the Source Sea when mentioned.

The pair of master and disciple, both had frozen expressions.

Liu Yupu couldn't help but laugh, after sizing up Tao Qian, the good junior, she remarked:

"Master found me later, dragging me endlessly, mentioning you frequently, saying things like finding me an extremely good junior, not only with unparalleled talent but also of rare simple-mindedness and a good nature, compared to whom the ghost-hearted people I've seen from childhood are incomparable."

"Urging me to take good care of you upon returning to the sect, to love you well, now it seems, it is indeed me who should be taken care of."

"But you, junior, indeed are as unique as Master said, the only one I have ever encountered, no wonder my avatar left on Ascending Immortal Island would give you the last strand of 'Innate Spiritual Resonance'."

Her beloved disciple's teasing, Yunhua, was equally embarrassed and annoyed.

Reluctant to glance at her, continuing to embrace, then sighing:

"No wonder the Senior Brother wanted to steal you as his disciple, thinking about it was also for my sake, knowing I've already received this life chart's only child, Lingji, can't take one like you again."

"Senior Brother practiced the two paths of [Duobao] and [Divination], once the timing arrives, he can immediately Break Dao Transformation and prove Tribulation Immortal, yet still can only protect your single path in the Longevity Realm, ultimately he has to go reincarnate."

"If it were me, I probably couldn't last until then."

"But the Senior Brother indeed profited from your fortune, costs are gone, and after reincarnating, he could gain a Buddha ancestor's honor, when he returns to Spiritual Treasure, his cultivation is feared to be matched only by the Sect Master."

Speaking of this.

Tao Qian suddenly remembered something and seemed to understand, looking towards Liu Yupu.

Even though the strand of "Innate Spiritual Resonance" within him was long spent, the remaining trace still allowed him to resonate with the avatar of Senior Sister Xie Lingji before him.

He originally thought that after proving Lord Suppressing Evil, he would be able to see through the mysteries of Innate Spiritual Resonance and find the whereabouts of Senior Sister Xie Lingji.

As for the former, he indeed saw through it.

What is Innate Spiritual Resonance?

It has a great origin, born from a strand of Primordial Qi within the [Innate Source Pool].

To some extent, it is of the same generation as Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad, Lingbao Tianzun, Chaos Demon Ancestor, Creation Ancestor God, but is too weak and didn't transform into Gods and Demons.

It only transformed into a "Talent", which could be occasionally obtained by some special Life.

Xie Lingji was that fortunate one.

Of course, she was also unfortunate.

Throughout history, no cultivator who obtained innate spirituality met a good end; almost all died violently.

Yet Tao Qian had a feeling that Xie Lingji was somewhat special.

Her death might have been peculiar, or could it be said a fortuitous encounter?

The eighth incarnation, Liu Yupu, was still alive.

What about the ninth one? Where was it?

Because of the resonance, Liu Yupu knew the doubt in Tao Qian's mind when he arrived, and directly dispelled his doubts:

"I am Liu Yupu, also considered Xie Lingji, although not entirely, I have gained half the memories and cultivation."

"The reason for her death back then was indeed quite shocking and bizarre."

"It was when Xie Lingji was traveling outside, she unexpectedly stumbled upon that group of insane practitioners from the [Evil Sect] conducting a 'Summoning God' ritual, sacrificing as many as a hundred thousand newborn infants, claiming to summon the strongest evil god from the depths of the Source Sea. Who knew that what they summoned was actually a mass of..."

At this point, even Liu Yupu's face showed a look of fear.

Worse yet, the aura that was both familiar and surprising to Tao Qian began to seep from her body.

"Nightmare Energy!"

As these two words were spoken, Tao Qian immediately acted, surging Suppressing Evil Dao Qi from his senior sister's brow, dispelling the newly born nightmare energy completely.

Liu Yupu, with a look of surprise, nodded and continued:

"Indeed, it is innate nightmare energy."

"This is a deceitful object that surpasses all Source Qi of the Great Abyss Origin Sea, seemingly capable of polluting everything."

"Even Xie Lingji could not escape it."

"After I slaughtered all the Evil Sect practitioners at the scene, the nightmare energy unexpectedly entered my body. Who would have thought that this thing entangled with the [Innate Spirituality] like a vortex, pulling me into a state of nihility, dragging me toward the deepest part of the Source Sea, where I seemed to glimpse a boundless, all-encompassing mysterious portal."

"During this, I successively shed incarnations, and after shedding [Liu Yupu], the ninth weak body, along with the heart soul and true spirit, were pulled into an unknown place."

"I wandered the Source Sea, attempting to reunite with the original self, tracing a weak spiritual resonance, I came to the Immortal Qin territory..."

...

Liu Yupu's explanation unraveled the mystery of that year.

Tao Qian frowned slightly, sighed, and then said:

"So that's how it is, given it's that innate nightmare energy, it's no wonder Senior Sister Lingji met her doom. I too almost lost my life to it."

"If I'm not mistaken, what you vaguely saw should be the legendary Xuanpin Gate."

"And that ninth body along with the heart soul and true spirit, I'm afraid have been dragged to the nihility in the deepest part of the Source Swamp, where there are countless evil gods, including the Ten Thousand Qi Ancestor, whose power is not inferior to that of Lingbao Tianzun, His Elderly Self...."

The secret revealed by Tao Qian shocked both master and disciple. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Liu Yupu finally understood why she couldn't perceive where the rest of the heart soul and true spirit were, even with innate spirituality, because separated by the Source Swamp and nihility, how could she ever be whole again?

If nothing unexpected happens!

There will never again be Xie Lingji in this world!

Only a remnant soul remains, Liu Yupu.

Aunt Yunhua's mind filled with this, immediately more compassionate, she hugged her beloved disciple tightly, as if afraid that this remnant body and soul would also be dragged away.

Seeing this, Tao Qian did not hesitate, and expressed his intention to enter the Source Swamp:

"Aunt, Senior Sister."

"Once I enlighten the Fallen Demon Ancestor Dragon and the Source Sea Yellow Robe, and prove the Tribulation Immortal that day, I can enter the Source Swamp to seek that Xuanpin Gate."

"Senior Sister Lingji shall have a complete day."

Every word that Tao Qian spoke seemed to possess an extraordinary power, as if, though mere comfort, they needed to become reality like a divine oracle.
