Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 383 - 272: Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains All in a Painting, Zhu Qi Wants to Lift the Ancestor God Forbidden

"The most horrifying thing was that inside the column of light, a scroll-like treasure appeared clearly."

"As soon as the treasure appeared!"

"Anyone, even any living being, even those in the Cavernous Mystery Realm, couldn't help but have their attention drawn."

"Heaven and earth's focus!"

"Supreme Treasure!"

"At that moment, everyone's minds harbored only these two thoughts."

"Watching that scroll unfold slowly, it encompassed the entire Demon City in an instant."

"Inside the scroll, there was nothing else, just mountains and rivers."

"The vast Demon City seemed to transform into those 'thousands of miles of rivers and mountains,' integrated into the painting by a great power."

"Billions of rays of light cascaded down from above."

"Pinpoint accurately, enveloping every Transcendent being within the boundaries of Demon City."

"This included Tao Qian and several members of the National Salvation Congress within the Xianheng Hotel."

"Yu Yanshi was half shocked, half delighted as he disturbed the glow shining upon him and said,"

"Everyone must have sensed it by now, right? This glow is the 'Ancestor God Absolute Spirit Light.' Once targeted, no matter what methods you use, even the 'Heart Light Escape,' as soon as you leave Demon City, you'll be pulled back immediately."

"If Zhu Qi successfully refines the 'Mountain and River Map' and becomes the master of this treasure, with just a thought, he could eradicate any Transcendent beings within the realm of Demon City."

"Naturally, that includes us as well. What a treasure."

"Not only Yu Yanshi perceived this, but Tao Qian and other Cultivators and Demons within Demon City felt the same."

"This was actually the effect of the Ancestor God Forbidden Technique!"

"For over two thousand years, those Demons and Cultivators gathered in the mortal world, before being eradicated, all received this message."

"Even in death, these chaotic era Demon Cultivators died with a clear understanding."

"However, after understanding, few could peacefully accept it."

"Thus, the next moment!"

"In Demon City, Evasion Lights scattered chaotically."

"Nearly twenty thousand rays of Fleeting Lights from Prince Zhao Mansion scattered in all directions."

"Alas, all attempts were in vain."

"Zhu Qi, what have you done? I got pulled back."

"How is this possible, my 'Ten Thousand Miles Solo Escape Technique' also failed?"

"I used the 'God Demon Blood Transformation Technique.' I was dragged back too."

"And my 'Near and Far Skill' was useless too."

"Zhu Qi, don't court death; my father is the leader of the Poison Immortal Sect. If I die here, my father will surely come and make millions in Demon City pay for my burial."

...

"In that instant, not only was there chaos among the group of demons, there was terror and madness."

"Even those Cultivators who hadn't participated in the treasure competition and had raided Prince Zhao Mansion were plunged into panic."

"The number of Cultivators going to rob the treasures was twenty thousand."

"If including those who hadn't participated and were watching, this number instantly surged to thirty thousand, many of whom came from the Great Sects."

"Ties to these powers would definitely drag the Twelve Daoist Sects, Buddhist Temples, and countless millennium-old clans into this."

"Unless Zhu Qi was insane, he would never dare to eliminate so many people at once."

"If he truly did so, even if he succeeded in refining the Mountain and River Map and feared no Cultivator from the Ultimate Happiness Realm,"

"he would certainly provoke Daoist Transformation Realm powerhouses."

"The Ancestor God Forbidden Technique was formidable, but it was just a fragment; how could it block a Daoist Transformation?"

"Zhu Qi was indeed cruel but not mad; he surely knew this as well."

"So, when the 'Mountain and River Map' unfolded, his voice echoed in the ears of all in the Cultivation World:"

"Everyone need not fear; those Cultivators and Demons to be eradicated today, it is all predetermined."

"Those Daoists who did not participate in the treasure competition are naturally safe."

"And for the other Daoists, there's no need for too much panic. It's just eradication—no pain at all, over in a blink."

"In fact, you all are merely minor additions; if it weren't for the need to gather you chaotic beings, Demons and Ghosts, for refining this treasure, this king wouldn't bother with the troublesome treasure competition to lure you into the trap. It's too much hassle."

"Your sacrifice of useless bodies to help this king achieve the status of Saint is considered a great merit for you fools."

"Kneel down, everybody. Kneel down."

"If you kneel well, perhaps you can spare yourself from death."

"When these infuriating words resounded,"

"Under the gaze of the multitude, Zhu Qi underwent a miraculous transformation."

"His peculiar body suddenly shuddered." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

"The next moment, a ten-thousand-zhang Golden Light and Divine Music burst forth simultaneously."

"While his face remained unchanged, Zhu Qi's attire and aura suddenly seemed to transcend and transform. He wore the 'Supreme Seven Luminaries Treasure Crown,' 'Clothes of Jade Civilized Light Flying Cloud Skirt,' bore the 'Elixir Emperor Jade Seal,' and carried the 'Metallurgy Flying Spirit Summoning Mountain Sword'… Stepping into the air like a Saint descending into the world, the billions of rays of light seemed to be just there to highlight his presence."

"Even Tao Qian and the members of the National Salvation Congress had to admit at this moment."

"Zhu Qi's appearance was not something ordinary."

"Apart from the Divine Music and billions of rays of light, inside Demon City at this moment, over ten million civilians also couldn't help but look up, with many directly kneeling down, involuntarily beginning to offer Incense Wish Power."

"And in the refugee camps on the city's outskirts, millions more knelt toward the Longevity Tablets, their cries resounding like a tsunami."

"No matter who!"

"In such an atmosphere, one would be utterly intoxicated."

"The other bystanders, clearly not expecting such a shocking change, all gaped, disbelievingly watching this scene unfold."

"Only Tao Qian, who fully understood the convoluted background, could not restrain his desire to ridicule deep inside:"

"How can someone be so self-obsessed?"

"Emperor? Saint?"

"Ha, nothing but a narcissistic beast."

"Though Tao Qian harbored this thought, he also had to admit."
