Chapter 8

: The Treasure Coins, Heading to Kunlun

This coin is round with a square hole, and has two wings on each side.

The back is engraved with cloud-patterned celestial talismans, mysterious and obscure, while the front is inscribed with the words "trade" in bronze script.

It was none other than the first coin in the primordial world—the Treasure-Falling Coin.

At this moment, the Golden Coin, like an elf, gently flapped its wings and hovered above the tea tree, scattering endless, brilliant golden light rain.

Donghua raised his hand and grabbed the treasure coin.

With a little perception, its function became clear.

Falling Treasure Coins.

It contains forty-seven innate restrictions, is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, comes with its own trading rules, and is said to be able to fall into the hands of anything below the level of an innate supreme treasure.

It is a rare causal magic weapon in the primordial world.

Similarly, there are the Seven Arrows Nailhead Book in Lu Ya's hands, and Lao Tzu's Purple Gold Red Gourd, etc.

Since it is a trading rule, theoretically speaking, to achieve a certain goal, one must pay an equal price; only then can it be considered fair.

The price is none other than the user's own luck!

Therefore, every time this treasure is used, the user's merits and fortune will be diminished.

In the original mythology, the Treasure-Losing Coin was in the hands of Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao, two hermits from Wuyi Mountain. The two were merely True Immortals, yet they used this coin to successively lose Zhao Gongming's Dragon-Binding Rope and the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, two great spiritual treasures.

Therefore, his luck ran out, and Xiao Sheng was killed by Zhao Gongming with a golden whip.

This is another minor drawback of the Treasure Dropping Coin: it can only drop magical treasures, but not weapons.

As for Cao Bao, who escaped death, he died shortly afterward from being trapped in the Red Water Formation.

But even so, this matter is not over yet.

Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao were listed after their deaths and were granted titles in Heaven. However, they happened to become the two Heavenly Venerables Zhao Bao and Na Zhen under Zhao Gongming, which shows the terrifying nature of the trading rules.

"This treasure is powerful, but it should not be used lightly."

After putting away the treasure-dropping coin, Donghua pondered to himself.

Even so, he wasn't too worried.

As his cultivation deepens and he establishes a Celestial Court, his merits and fortune will surely increase significantly, making it no problem for him to use this magic weapon normally.

"Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on acquiring another rare treasure!"

Although Jin Hongshi and Yun Zhongjun did not know the truth about the Falling Treasure Coin, they could tell that it was an extraordinary treasure, and they congratulated them upon seeing it.

Those with great supernatural powers have attained enlightenment and realized their true nature.

Before they even arrived, the two of them had already made it clear that after defeating Pan Wang, the treasures in the mountain would belong to Donghua, so there was nothing more to say at this point.

Therefore, although there was some envy, there was not much jealousy.

However, it was clear that Donghua didn't intend to keep all the treasures of Wuyi Mountain to himself. He pointed to the tea tree in front of him and smiled:

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the legendary Great Red Robe Mother Tree. Although it's only a top-grade innate spiritual root, its tea leaves have the wondrous effect of aiding in enlightenment. Why don't you two fellow Daoists take some?"

Cultivating the Tao is not just about fighting and killing, but also about understanding human relationships and worldly affairs.

Having acquired four top-tier magical treasures on this trip, I've already made a fortune. So, I should leave some benefits for others as well, shouldn't I?

Moreover, without the guidance of Jin Hong and the other person, he would never have had this opportunity today.

He was still willing to part with a single large red hibiscus mother tree.

"this……"

Upon hearing this, Jin Hongshi and Yun Zhongjun were both surprised and delighted, seemingly not expecting Donghua to be so generous.

That was, after all, a top-grade innate spiritual root, a rare find even in the entire prehistoric world. Yet Donghua gave it up so easily, demonstrating the breadth of his mind.

In an instant, the slight unpleasantness that had been lingering in their hearts vanished.

Regardless of what the two were thinking, Donghua pointed to Mount Wuyi where the three of them were standing and said with a smile:

"I've heard that Fellow Daoist Yunzhongjun has no Daoist temple. This Wuyi Mountain is serene and beautiful, rich in spiritual energy, truly a superior blessed land. In my humble opinion, why not establish a Daoist temple here?"

Yun Zhongjun said, "What you say is absolutely right, fellow Daoist. That is exactly what I was thinking as well."

Wuyi Mountain is not far from Mount Tai, where Jin Hongshi is located. He originally planned to establish a Taoist temple on the mountain after obtaining the treasures there, but Panwang Taoist interfered with his plans.

The rest was much simpler. With Donghua and the other two protecting him, Yunzhongjun released his own energy, permeating every inch of Wuyi Mountain and leaving his mark on it completely.

They also built the Qingyun Palace in the mountains, thus establishing the Daoist temple.

With the temple established, Yun Zhongjun was in high spirits.

With a wave of his hand, he conjured a stone pavilion on the spot and laughed loudly, "The temple has just opened! Shall we gather around the stove and brew tea?"

Then a red clay stove, a stone table, and stone benches appeared.

The three sat atop the cliff, just as they had not long ago at the Golden Summit of Mount Tai, enjoying themselves immensely.

Before we knew it, half a century had passed in this tea-drinking and philosophical discussion.

Donghua already possessed a fragmented Jade Disc of Creation, and he frequently drank Da Hong Pao tea, which naturally accelerated his progress in comprehending the Dao.

During this period, he not only raised his magical power to the peak of the mid-stage of the Great Luo realm, but also made great progress in his understanding of the Lesser Yang Dao.

If he were to encounter Panwang Daoren again, he was confident that defeating him would only be easier.

He had also begun to refine the Falling Treasure Coin.

"Having lingered here long enough, it is time for this humble Taoist to depart."

More than a hundred years passed, and Donghua finally asked Jin Hong and the other person to leave, preparing to embark on another journey through the prehistoric world.

After all, he hadn't yet achieved his goal for this trip!

Jin Hong and his companion were naturally reluctant to part with him and pleaded, "We two have hit it off with you since we first met, and we wish we could have talked with you for as long as we could. Why don't you stay a little longer?"

Donghua was a man of great talent and integrity, gentle and refined, with an open mind and a unique character, which left a deep impression on the two of them.

After spending some time together, they had long considered each other confidants.

"Haha, fellow Daoists, please don't act like little girls."

Donghua, however, was quite carefree. Upon hearing this, he laughed and said, "We are immortal beings of the heavens, and we will meet again in the future. Perhaps one day I will have important matters to rely on you two."

"If you wish to find me in the future, you may go to the Purple Mansion Immortal Continent in the East Sea."

After saying this, he gracefully departed.

After watching Donghua leave, Jin Hongshi and Yun Zhongjun stood there for a long time before exclaiming, "Brother Donghua, you are truly a remarkable person!"

…………

After leaving Wuyi Mountain, Donghua followed the direction indicated by the primordial earth veins and flew towards Kunlun Mountain.

Nothing unexpected happened during this time, and after an unknown period of time, a majestic sacred mountain finally appeared before them.

The scenery is ever-changing, magnificent and breathtaking.

Rare flowers and exotic herbs never fade, and green pines and cypresses remain evergreen. The essence of heaven and earth transforms into white mist that lingers in the mountains all year round—truly a wonderful creation.

Wuyi Mountain is already considered a rare and excellent natural paradise, but compared to this sacred mountain in front of us, it is like a firefly compared to the bright moon, falling far short.

It was none other than the legendary Kunlun Mountain.
