Mid-stage Golden Immortal, Preaching at Zixiao Palace

Kunlun Mountain, Sanqing Palace.

Yuan Shi's brow twitched, and he suddenly opened his eyes.

Seeing Yuanshi's reaction, Taiqing Laozi and Shangqing Tongtian all looked at him.

"Yuanshi, have you encountered any trouble in your cultivation?" Taiqing asked.

Yuanshi shook his head, puzzled, and said, "Just now... I don't know why, it seems that someone in the dark has formed a karmic connection with me, it seems to be... one of my spiritual treasures."

As he spoke, he took out his treasure, which was surrounded by spiritual light, yet no problem could be seen.

But now, the Twenty-Fourth Grade Creation Lotus has not yet appeared, and he has not obtained the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi. He doesn't even know which spiritual treasure he is involved with.

Tongtian chuckled and said to Yuanshi, "Second brother, you're overthinking it. After the three races fought for supremacy, the Hunyuan Golden Immortals either perished or went into seclusion."

"We, the Three Pure Ones, possess formidable fighting power and are blessed with the merits of creating the heavens. Who would dare covet the spiritual treasures in our hands?"

Laozi stroked his beard and nodded: "Third brother is absolutely right. I do have a feeling that we should have a great opportunity coming. What you just felt must be related to this."

Yuan Shi only felt the sensation from just now, which quickly disappeared, and then simply nodded: "Perhaps."

……

In the west, Mount Sumeru.

While Jieyin was discussing the Dao with Zhunti, he suddenly stopped fiddling with the Bodhi beads in his hand and looked towards the east.

"Brother, has something happened?" Zhunti keenly sensed Jieyin's reaction.

With a flick of his sleeve, he took out the Seven Treasures Tree, which trembled slightly.

"Just now, I sensed that someone was plotting something against the Seven Treasures Tree!"

Upon hearing this, Zhunti trembled.

The fact that these innate treasures possess spirits and have such a reaction is not a good thing for them.

Especially now, since Jieyin and Zhunti are only at the level of Great Luo Golden Immortals and are not yet saints of later generations, they are naturally flustered.

Zhunti immediately said, "Brother, we live in a remote corner of the primordial wilderness. The West is inherently barren, and the Seven Treasures Tree is more precious to us than life itself."

The treasure has been targeted, and danger lurks everywhere. Let's seal it with a restriction and not use it lightly.

Upon hearing this, Jieyin nodded emphatically: "What you say is absolutely right. We have a premonition that a great opportunity is about to arrive. Great opportunities are usually accompanied by ominous signs, so we must be extremely careful!"

After Jieyin and Zhunti finished speaking, they hurriedly used their magical powers to seal the Seven Treasures Tree and place it in Mount Sumeru.

Even if the opportunity arises, it will be decided that the Seven Treasures Tree should not be taken out for the time being.

Little did Jin Xuan know that his mere early-stage Golden Immortal's casual thought had somehow caused both Yuan Shi and Jie Yin to sense it.

Especially Jieyin and Zhunti, they were so panicked that they saw danger everywhere.

He sat cross-legged, with numerous spiritual roots and fruits piled up like a small mountain in front of him.

He didn't rush to refine the two spiritual treasures. Although spiritual treasures were good, they were still external things. He should focus on himself first.

With his five hearts facing the sky and his mouth slightly open, he calmed his mind and began to circulate the "Ten Thousand Treasures Devouring Heaven Scripture".

Suddenly, all 1.08 billion pores on Jin Xuan's body opened up, and countless strands of precious energy and spiritual energy gathered from all around the cave.

Dark vortexes appeared around Jin Xuan's body, and the many spiritual roots and fruits in front of him, under the guidance of this technique, transformed into a torrent of precious energy and spiritual energy, surging towards him.

Compared to other beings' cultivation, the efficiency of Jin Xuan's one spiritual root and one spiritual fruit is equivalent to that of other beings' two spiritual roots and two spiritual fruits.

When it comes to precious energy, the Treasure Basin and the Mysterious Fiend Pearl contain the most. However, the precious energy of a spiritual treasure cannot be absorbed, otherwise it will cause the spiritual treasure to lose its spirituality and become useless.

In comparison, things like magical treasures naturally require various methods to maximize their benefits.

A surge of spiritual energy flowed into his body, transformed through profound techniques, circulating throughout his meridians, converging into his limbs and bones, and transforming into magical power to nourish his primordial spirit…

In the primordial chaos, years are forgotten; in the mountains, time stands still.

Three thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.

With all his spiritual roots and fruits depleted, Jin Xuan exhaled a breath of turbid air, and his internal magical power surged, becoming several times greater than before.

"As expected of the Myriad Treasures Devouring Heaven Scripture, I am already close to the peak of the mid-stage Golden Immortal realm, and I am only accumulating magical power to reach the late-stage Golden Immortal realm. If my spiritual roots and fruits had not been completely exhausted, I would probably already be at the late-stage Golden Immortal realm by now."

Besides that, Jin Xuan did not just focus on consuming spiritual roots and fruits to improve his cultivation.

Aside from cultivation level, spells, supernatural powers, and spiritual treasures are the best things to directly enhance combat power.

It has been a short time, and Jin Xuan has only initially refined the Xuan Sha Pearl and the Treasure Basin.

The Treasure Basin and the Golden Profound are perfectly compatible. With a little refinement, it took only a hundred years to refine twelve layers of restrictions.

The Treasure Basin's effects of attracting wealth and good fortune are beginning to show. However, its wealth-attracting effect is currently limited by the cave's restrictions and can only work within the cave. Occasionally, when a lower-grade spiritual root or spiritual fruit matures, it will automatically come to it.

The speed of gathering fortune is extremely slow, after all, "fortune" is elusive and elusive, invisible and intangible.

Even so, over the course of a century, Jin Xuan still managed to sense something.

As for the Xuan Sha Pearl, Jin Xuan initially refined the five layers of restrictions. After some practice, he was able to use this treasure with ease and skill, and its power was terrifying.

Aside from these, Jin Xuan comprehended two supernatural abilities.

Metal is born from water, and the Great Dao is close to Yin.

Based on the principles of water, we can understand the concept of "all rivers flowing into one".

It condenses countless drops of water from the sky, transforming them into billions of whirlpools to form a shield.

It can differentiate, absorb, and deflect the incoming magical power and the impact of magical treasures layer by layer, just like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea, thus "returning" and dissolving the external force.

At the highest level of cultivation, one can even briefly form "absolute water defense," completely engulfing and reflecting attacks.

He gained some insights from the Myriad Treasures Devouring Heaven Scripture, and actually comprehended the law of devouring, which made his speed of devouring and converting spiritual energy more than ten times faster than before.

Based on the law of devouring, Jin Xuan created a divine power called "Black Hole Devouring the Heavens".

Once unleashed, the world changes color; it can devour all things in the world to nourish itself, possessing both destructive power and self-enhancing properties.

Now, it is already well-rounded in both offense and defense, but it still lacks a magical escape technique.

He still hadn't finished refining the spiritual treasure he had planned to make, but he had a premonition that something big was about to happen, so he gave up his seclusion and waited for it to happen.

After emerging from seclusion, Jin Xuan relaxed for two years, spending his days simply watering his spiritual root and fishing by the lake.

One day, suddenly a purple aura appeared from the east, stretching for 30,000 miles, and flowers rained down from the sky, while golden lotuses sprang from the ground.

Endless jewels and golden lamps appeared, and strange phenomena unfolded.

An old man's face appeared in the sky, and his voice resounded throughout the ears of all living beings in the primordial world.

"I, Hongjun, have now attained sainthood. Three thousand years from now, in the Chaos Purple Cloud Palace, I will preach the Great Dao. Those with affinity are welcome to come..."

As soon as he finished speaking, his face disappeared, and all the creatures of the primordial world were instantly excited.

When a sage preaches, a great opportunity has arrived.

Jin Xuan shook his head, knowing in his heart that the so-called major event was over.

He couldn't help but purse his lips and say, "You're disturbing my cultivation."

Upon receiving the news, many innate deities headed towards Zixiao Palace.

From Kunlun Mountain, the Sun Star, the Moon Star, Wuzhuang Temple, Huoyun Cave, the Blood Sea, and the Northern Sea, streaks of light sped upwards, soaring into the heavens, heading towards the chaos beyond the primordial wilderness.

At Mount Sumeru in the West, Jieyin and Zhunti were immediately dumbfounded.

Beyond the chaos lies the Purple Cloud Palace!

Such a great opportunity?

Should we go or not?

If you go, will you bring the Seven Treasures Tree with you?
