Longevity Chronicles-Chapter 192 - 158 chapters Daoist Alcohol and Meat once became an emperor, the Dao Path is hopeless and desires to end the struggle_2

"You are Tao Qian, with such an unfamiliar face, so you must be the first disciple recently taken in by my eldest senior brother."

"I, in worldly terms known as Li Changle, am also called the Daoist Alcohol and Meat."

As he finished his introduction, not waiting for Tao Qian to pay his respects, the Daoist immediately challenged:

"My lazy self, the Alcohol and Meat Uncle, has always been too lethargic to leave the island, hence I have never visited you at my senior brother’s Golden Radiance Island."

"I saw you passing by just now and thought to keep you a little longer, to make up for the missing greeting gift. But you, boy, are too boring. After one look, you wanted to leave. What? Does my Wine Pool Meat Forest on the Ultimate Happiness Immortal Island not catch the eye of a talented disciple like you, unwilling even to linger for a moment of pleasure?"

"Do you know of the reputation of my Ultimate Happiness Immortal Island in the Mortal World, in the Cultivation World? Be it high officials, noble persons, the supreme ones, or the talents from various sects, if they could get an ’Ultimate Happiness Token’ to enjoy pleasures here, they would surely be overjoyed."

"You see this Daoist Field of mine welcoming guests with Wine Pool and Meat Forest. It appears extravagant and corrupt, rotting the will of the Dao Heart. Yet in reality, all these arrangements capture the true essence of ultimate bliss, no matter how you indulge, it does not damage the Dao Heart. This is the mystery of the magic skill I cultivate, ’Spirit Treasure Great Desire Ultimate Happiness Sutra.’"

Having said his piece, Tao Qian remained unmoved, with not a trace of temptation in his eyes.

In fact, on touching that "Great Desire Fragrance Cloud," he had already learned some information about this immortal island.

Nevertheless, it held little temptation for Tao Qian.

Regardless of whether or not it damaged the Dao Heart, he had no interest in indulging in the Wine Pool Meat Forest and experiencing ultimate pleasure.

Of course, proper manners still had to be observed, so Tao Qian bowed his hands in return:

"Elder Uncle’s magic skill is indeed indescribable."

"However, as uncle also knows, I was merely a Loose Cultivator in the wilderness before, and now I am luckily part of the Spirit Treasure Mountain Gate, thus I have to cultivate diligently."

"In matters of cultivation, one cannot slack off."

"I am actually on my way to the Red Sleeve Immortal Island to consult Aunt Pan Si about some doubts regarding the cultivation technique in the Scripture Hall; hence, I dare not linger to avoid delaying the journey."

With this watertight response, Tao Qian left the Daoist Alcohol and Meat speechless. The latter pursed his lips and knocked on the Dragon Chariot, summoning a scantily-clad, fairy-like maid from the group. She held a jade tray carrying a bizarre fruit resembling a half-reclining little person, belly exposed, with a wide smiling mouth.

As if combining thousands of exotic fragrances, a strong fragrance overwhelmed the senses.

Then, the voice of Daoist Alcohol and Meat came from ahead:

"Listen well, boy, this is the Ultimate Happiness Extending Life Fruit, truly a rare item even within the Cultivation World."

"Swallowing one can extend life for ten years without any cost, and also allows one to experience a wonderful dream of ultimate bliss."

"If you find the taste to your liking, feel free to ask me for more."

"Go on, I won’t keep you any longer."

Since the Daoist said so, Tao Qian could not refuse.

He picked up the fruit and was then waved away from the Immortal Island by the Daoist’s hand.

Holding the fruit, Tao Qian was about to store it in his talisman seed and continue towards the Red Sleeve Immortal Island.

However, at that moment, upon touching the "Ultimate Happiness Extending Life Fruit" in his hand, some secrets suddenly emerged in his mind that made his body stiffen.

[Record Name: Ultimate Happiness Extending Life Fruit.]

[Record Type: Alien.]

[Record: This is a unique alien item exclusive to the Spirit Treasure Sect, only cultivatable by cultivators who practice the ’Great Desire Ultimate Happiness Scripture,’ which is one of the Nine Classics in the Great Book, extraordinarily mystical, directly connected to the Great Dao. However, once this scripture is cultivated, advancing to the Daoist Transformation Realm becomes as hard as ascending to heaven; until now, only one Second Generation Ancestor of the Spirit Treasure Sect has managed it.]

[Note 1: Method of growing this fruit: Create a Realm of Ultimate Happiness through the Ultimate Happiness Scripture, then attract various life forms using multiple methods. Any life form that enters and spends time there for pleasure will have part of their lifespan transformed into an Ultimate Happiness Extending Life Fruit.]

[Note 2: Li Changle, former emperor of the Longevity Heavenly Dynasty, chose to cultivate the ’Great Desire Ultimate Happiness Scripture’ in his early years due to damage from Foundation Establishment, barely reached the Cavernous Mystery Realm, sees no hope on the Dao Path, and is preparing for a do-or-die attempt in the upcoming...???...]

"Uh?"

Tao Qian did not expect that this mere fruit would reveal some of his elder uncle’s background.

Perhaps it was because this Elder Uncle Li Changle held no guard against him, and with Tao Qian’s current Cultivation Realm reaching Foundation Establishment, he naturally could perceive these secrets, which also continued to elevate.

"The Longevity Heavenly Dynasty has lasted over two thousand years, yet every generation of rulers has been different."

"The reigning imperial family is surnamed Zhu, with the former indeed being Li. I didn’t expect that within the gates of Spirit Treasure Mountain there was indeed an emperor hiding, odd that uncle maintained some imperial attire, probably since some worldly desires linger."

"The planting process of the Ultimate Happiness Extending Life Fruit is indeed not surprising, as it must be so otherwise it would be illogical; there can be no lifespan generated out of thin air. It must be derived, which fits with the dao."

"However, what the subsequent question mark represents, I do not know."

"If Uncle Changle has no hope on his Dao Path, how could he be prepared for a do-or-die struggle?"

Tao Qian’s brows furrowed, feeling a premonition.

That question mark involved a secret related to him.

"It surely can’t be that True Inheritor Grand Meeting is it? That only involves reporting this generation’s list of True Disciples to the ancestors, how could it make a Cavernous Mystery Realm Elder fight a do-or-die battle?"

"Unless there is something else, something I’m unaware of."

Pondering for a moment without understanding,

Tao Qian had to store the fruit and temporarily suppress those thoughts.

Stumbling upon secrets of an Elder’s level was already unexpected, and without special circumstances, Tao Qian did not intend to delve deep.
