Chapter 10
Zixiao Palace
Sha...
"Nephew Xuanbao is indeed very fortunate. However, to find such a precious treasure in just over a hundred years, he truly deserves to be the chief disciple of the Three Pure Ones."
At this moment, Yuanshi looked at Xuanbao with envious, jealous and hateful eyes. Don't misunderstand, he was not envious of Xuanbao's acquisition of the top-grade innate spiritual treasure, but rather envious of Xuanbao's good fortune and hated that his third brother had such good luck in receiving such a fine disciple. It was truly enviable.
Laozi, standing to the side, was also looking at Xuanbao with burning eyes. There was no way around it; alchemy was just too resource-intensive. His junior nephew was a wealthy man, and he might need to rely on his junior nephew after he started alchemy. He could even share the pills he produced with his junior nephew.
Tongtian, standing to the side, felt somewhat resentful. His disciple was actually richer than him. Xuanbao already possessed three top-grade innate spiritual treasures and over twenty other innate spiritual treasures of various grades.
Moreover, he hadn't really given his disciple anything; it was as if he had exchanged a top-grade innate spiritual treasure for it. This was only because he hadn't taken out the Holy Light Sword during the treasure selection; otherwise, Tongtian would have been even more heartbroken.
snort!
Having a magical treasure to protect oneself is a good thing, but Qie Mo became so obsessed with the power of the magical treasure that he forgot about his own cultivation. The magical treasure is ultimately an external thing, and Tongtian could only grunt a few words in frustration.
Xuanbao did not expose his master's arrogant nature, but simply nodded in agreement and promised not to neglect his own cultivation before accepting the matter.
With the Three Lectures at Zixiao Palace imminent, the Three Pure Ones would have already set off for Zixiao Palace long ago if they weren't waiting for Xuanbao. Tongtian went directly to Xuanbao's side, grabbed Xuanbao, and the Three Pure Ones simultaneously transformed into a golden light and rushed towards the chaos beyond the heavens.
Xuanbao was being carried away and had nothing to do, so he started looking at the scenery. And it has to be said, the scenery from this angle was indeed quite nice. The prehistoric world was vast, and although he was flying very high, it was still incredibly expansive below.
Until they arrived at the place where the primordial wilderness met the chaos, which was the membrane of heaven and earth, there was peace and tranquility inside the membrane. Outside the membrane, there was chaos, and the chaotic gales were everywhere. Anyone below the Great Luo level would die if they were attacked. Therefore, the powerful beings who could go to Zixiao Palace were at least Great Luo Golden Immortals.
Upon arriving outside the membrane of heaven and earth, Laozi, who was in charge, immediately summoned the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Xuanhuang Pagoda, a treasure of acquired merit, to protect the four of them from being hit by the chaotic gale. Although the Three Pure Ones had become quasi-saints and were not afraid of the chaotic gale, they still had Xuanbao, who was a burden, with them this time.
The moment Xuanbao stepped into the Chaos Treasure, he lost his way. Chaotic winds filled the surrounding area, making it so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. Xuanbao was certain that the 3000 Great Luo Golden Immortals who came to Zixiao Palace must have been guided by Dao Ancestor Hongjun to reach Zixiao Palace.
Otherwise, 99% of the Great Luo Golden Immortals would definitely be lost in this vast and boundless chaotic space.
After flying for an unknown amount of time, Xuanbao was suddenly awakened by a burst of precious energy surging into the sky within his senses. Xuanbao was idly counting sheep there.
Xuanbao compared himself to the others, saying that he now possessed 89 innate spiritual treasures, including four top-grade ones, but compared to this soaring treasure aura, they were nothing.
This must be the treasure-sharing cliff of that old man Hongjun. It is said that there are at least 3000 innate spiritual treasures inside, which is what Xuanbao most wants to obtain this time. He thinks that if he can get these spiritual treasures, he can stop eating beef.
However, this is just wishful thinking. This is a crucial step for Hongjun to achieve Dao. These spiritual treasures were distributed to the 3000 guests of Zixiao. As long as they received the spiritual treasures, they would acknowledge Hongjun as their teacher. You must know that these are 3000 Great Luo Golden Immortals.
Basically, they represent 80-90% of the fighting power in the primordial world. It was through this relationship that Hongjun bound himself to 90% of the primordial world's fortune, which is also the source of Hongjun's confidence in achieving the Dao.
Xuanbao only hoped that he could use the treasure energy to obtain more spiritual treasures, which would be much easier than searching for treasures himself.
As they drew closer, a palace finally appeared before Xuanbao. The palace was ancient and majestic, especially the three characters "Zixiao Palace" on the plaque above the gate, which were full of Taoist wisdom. Xuanbao dared not look at it for too long for fear of becoming lost in its magnificence. However, as he passed through the gate of Zixiao Palace, Xuanbao saw two boys standing at the entrance.
Are these the Jade Emperor Haotian and the Queen Mother of the West from later generations? They were quite cute when they were young. Xuanbao even took out two low-grade spiritual fruits from his space and threw them to the two of them. Before Haotian and Yaochi could react, Xuanbao had already followed the Three Pure Ones into the Zixiao Palace.
From the outside, Zixiao Palace appears to be just a palace, but stepping inside reveals a completely different scene. Its interior space is vast, likely belonging to the Great Thousand World. (Sages are capable of creating the Great Thousand World).
Because the Three Pure Ones had spent a lot of time waiting for Xuanbao, many people had already arrived at Zixiao Palace. The Three Pure Ones led Xuanbao directly to the six prayer cushions at the very front of the platform. The Three Pure Ones went directly to the three closest prayer cushions and sat cross-legged, while Xuanbao sat behind his master, also in a very forward position.
This also drew the attention of many powerful figures in Zixia Palace to Xuanbao. Among a group of people who were at least Daluo Golden Immortals, the presence of a Taiyi Golden Immortal was extremely conspicuous. However, Xuanbao was not afraid and started a game of "I'll watch you, you'll log in, I'll log in" with the many powerful figures in the palace, with the main idea being that he was not embarrassed, but others were.
Pfft, Xuanbao's performance made Nuwa, who was sitting in the fourth position, laugh. Nuwa had never seen such an interesting little guy before. His cultivation level was not high, but he was quite bold. Moreover, he was indeed very cute, which successfully caught Nuwa's attention.
This laughter successfully caught Xuanbao's attention. This is Nuwa? Xuanbao's first feeling was one of familiarity. How to put it? Nuwa wasn't the kind of stunning beauty. It was more like, Xuanbao didn't know how to describe it, a motherly feeling. Although it was a little embarrassing, that was definitely the feeling.
Seeing Xuanbao looking at her, Nuwa spoke directly, "Young friend, aren't you afraid that those people will take the opportunity to retaliate against you in the future?"
"My master is Tongtian!"
Xuanbao's words left Nuwa speechless. After regaining her composure, she forced a smile and said, "Although your master is incredibly powerful, he won't be able to follow you forever, so don't be afraid."
"My master is the Three Pure Ones who reach the heavens!"
Nuwa: ...
"If your master is in seclusion and you are alone, how should you cope?"
Xuanbao laughed, but what he said made Nuwa want to vomit blood: "My senior master is Laozi of the Three Pure Ones, Yuanshi of the Three Pure Ones."
Nuwa was speechless.
Moreover, everyone in Zixiao Palace is a powerful figure. Xuanbao's words were heard by everyone. Their expressions varied. Some acted as if nothing had happened, some just wanted to have some fun, but some had sinister looks in their eyes, as if they wanted to kill Xuanbao.
However, the happiest people are the Three Pure Ones. At this moment, the corners of their mouths are harder to suppress than AK's. They have silently shown off a lot. Yuanshi looks at Xuanbao with even more affection. Even Taiqing Laozi, who is usually stoic, looks at Xuanbao with even more gentleness.
Especially Tongtian, who was already flamboyant, was now looking at the other powerful figures and thought he wanted to say that everyone present was trash.
However, reason prevailed in the end, and he didn't say those words; otherwise, he might have been in danger of dying today. But he was even more satisfied with his disciple, Xuanbao.
