Visiting Phoenix Perch Mountain, Encountering Houtu Again

Of course, Ran Deng on the other side was unaware that Rahu had appeared on the Sun Star and bewitched the two Golden Crows into cultivating their fortune. If he were there, he would definitely curse Rahu for his ill intentions.

He and the Three Pure Ones sat cross-legged in the valley, refining the banana leaf fans they had obtained. About ten thousand years passed, and Randeng finally completed the initial refinement of the banana leaf fan, refining ten innate restrictions.

After the group had done some initial refinement of the banana leaf fans, they learned that when the four banana leaf fans were combined, they could form a primordial array called the Four Symbols Chaos Array. This array could recreate the chaotic scene of earth, water, wind, and fire surging at the beginning of creation, and it was extremely powerful.

It seems that in the previous life, because only two of the innate banana leaf fans were shown, this great formation was not able to be revealed.

After refining the Banana Leaf Fan with the lamp, he walked to the original location of the innate Banana Leaf Tree, only to find that there was only a withered Banana Leaf Tree root left, without any divine intent, but it was not completely dead. Perhaps after countless eons, four more Banana Leaf Fans could be born.

After the Three Pure Ones finished refining the spiritual treasures, Randeng and the others left the valley and began exploring Mount Buzhou.

Randeng originally intended to search for the location of the innate gourd vine with the Three Pure Ones, but perhaps it was not yet fully mature, and the four of them found nothing.

As expected, some of the top spiritual treasures in this primordial world are all subject to fate and destiny; they will not appear until the time is right.

The four abandoned their plan to search for treasure on Buzhou Mountain and instead headed towards the cave of Fuxi and Nuwa.

Randeng remembered that at the last meeting between Fuxi and Nuwa regarding the ginseng fruit, Fuxi told him that the name of the mountain range was Phoenix Perch Mountain.

Based on the memories of the Earth Book in his mind, Randeng led the Three Pure Ones to the front of this mountain range very quickly.

"Fellow Daoists Fuxi, Nuwa, Randeng, and the Three Pure Ones have come to pay their respects."

The group transmitted a divine thought into the protective array of Phoenix Perch Mountain.

A moment later, a gentle and clear voice came from within the great formation.

"Haha, what wind blew by today that brought Fellow Daoist Ran Deng and Fellow Daoist San Qing to my Phoenix Perch Mountain together."

A Taoist priest with distinct facial features and gentle, profound eyes stepped forward; it was none other than Fuxi.

Randeng then presented the Enlightenment Tea he had prepared as a gift. The Three Pure Ones were annoyed, wondering why they hadn't thought to bring a gift when they visited.

So the group also collected some fruits from the fruits of their innate spiritual roots and gave them to Fuxi.

Fuxi smiled and accepted them one by one. These spiritual root fruits were all beneficial to cultivation, especially the enlightenment tea brought by Fellow Daoist Ran Deng. Just smelling it made him feel clear-headed and his comprehension improved.

"We apologize for disturbing you, fellow Daoist. We and Fellow Daoist Ran Deng traveled to this place and decided to visit you and your sister together."

Tai Shang smiled and explained to Fu Xi that he was the one among the Three Pure Ones who had the best relationship with Fu Xi. He had previously discussed the principles of Yin and Yang with Fu Xi, and their paths to the Great Dao were exceptionally compatible.

"I am naturally very happy to welcome you all to my Phoenix Perch Mountain. However, there is still one person in Phoenix Perch Mountain at this moment."

Fuxi paused for a moment, then explained to everyone.

"May I ask which fellow Daoist you are? Would it be convenient for you to introduce us?"

Tongtian was especially excited. He traveled through the prehistoric world, and his greatest joy was making friends with fellow Daoists from all walks of life.

"He is a fellow Daoist from the Witch Clan, and a good friend of my younger sister."

Fuxi glanced at the Three Pure Ones because the twelve ancestral witches of the Wu tribe and the Three Pure Ones had been arguing for several eons over the claim that they were the true descendants of Pangu.

"Is it Fellow Daoist Houtu or Fellow Daoist Xuanming?"

The original question was about the Wu tribe, which had a good relationship with Nuwa, except for Houtu and Xuanming, something he had heard Fuxi mention.

"Fellow Daoist's predictions are truly divine; you are indeed Fellow Daoist Houtu."

As Fuxi led them into the great formation, he introduced them to this fellow Daoist Houtu.

Although the Three Pure Ones and the Twelve Ancestral Witches have been arguing about the true lineage of Pangu, they actually don't know much about the Witch Clan.

According to Fuxi, this Houtu ancestral witch was not as tyrannical and unreasonable as other ancestral witches, nor was she a barbarian who only knew how to absorb evil energy. Houtu was also said to have the potential to condense a primordial spirit.

Ran Deng pondered: Why is Hou Tu here? Shouldn't she be discussing matters with the other ancestral witches among the witch clan?

Could it be that the other ancestral witches rejected his proposal to Houtu?

Arriving at the cave dwelling of Fuxi and Nuwa, Randeng once again saw Houtu, who was wearing a black and yellow Taoist robe.

Houtu was very surprised to see Randeng, her tone filled with delight.

"Fellow Daoist Ran Deng, what brings you here?"

The remaining five people all turned their gazes to Randeng, curious as to how he knew Houtu.

"I was traveling with fellow Daoists Sanqing to Buzhou Mountain when we happened to come here to visit fellow Daoists Fuxi and Nuwa."

Ran Deng remained calm, seemingly oblivious to the gazes of the others.

"Sister Houtu, why didn't you tell me that you knew Fellow Daoist Randeng?"

Nuwa's expression was playful, as if she were blaming her good sister for not sharing it with her.

"Sister Nuwa, Houtu is someone I only recently met, Fellow Daoist Randeng, so I haven't had a chance to tell you yet."

Houtu spoke the truth, saying that she had known Randeng for less than ten thousand years, which was not a long time in the context of the primordial world where people often secluded themselves for tens of thousands of years.

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Ran Deng, I have already given the method you told me, as well as that spiritual root, to my elder brother Di Jiang. After discussion, all the Ancestral Witches agreed to this approach."

Houtu, her face beaming with joy, shared the situation of the Wu tribe with Randeng.

"My elder brother is very grateful to you. They also said that I must invite you to visit the Witch Clan if I have the chance, and they will definitely treat you well."

Ran Deng was somewhat surprised, not expecting that simply providing an edible innate spiritual root and some methods for raising livestock would attract such attention from the Wu Clan.

However, what he didn't know was that at this time, the Wu tribe had not yet created a method to quickly create Wu tribe members using the blood pool in the Pangu Temple.

The number of Wu people is small, and they can only reproduce naturally. Every member of the clan cherishes them very much, and they feel very sorry for using them to fight against the demons.

Therefore, the innate spiritual roots and the method of raising food provided by the lamp are particularly important. This way, there is no need to fight with the demon race, and the food supply within the race can be met, allowing the race to continuously expand.

However, when Houtu invited Randeng, the Three Pure Ones interpreted it as the Wu tribe trying to win Randeng over.

Tongtian secretly transmitted his voice to Taishang, "Big chest, we can't let Fellow Daoist Randeng be lured away by those barbarians."

Leaving aside the bond between the Three Pure Ones and Randeng, Randeng alone is among the top tier of innate deities in terms of both spiritual treasures and cultivation. If he were to choose to side with the Witch Clan, it would be extremely detrimental to the Three Pure Ones.

Yuanshi also agreed with Tongtian's words, "Yes, our elder brother, Fellow Daoist Randeng, is very compatible with us. We must not let him be bewitched by the Wu Clan."

What Taishang did not expect was that Randeng not only had great talent in cultivation, but also had such a good relationship with a group of innate deities.
