The Birth of the Gourd, a Fierce Battle

Chapter 43 The Birth of the Gourd, a Fierce Battle

Outside the Purple Cloud Palace.

The three thousand holy beings who were swept out by Hongjun looked at each other.

Kunpeng glared at Hongyun through gritted teeth, "Fellow Daoist, I will remember this karma!"

Before Hongyun could explain, Kunpeng disappeared near Zixiao Palace.

This prompted Hongyun to sigh.

Di Jun and Tai Yi, the two golden crows, smiled at each other and then disappeared from the spot.

The three Qing looked around and felt as if an opportunity was waiting for them.

After exchanging whispers, they quickly left Zixiao Palace following their inner desires.

The Eastern King Duke gathered a group of male immortals and, relying on his status as the head of the male immortals, used them to win over people from all directions.

Upon seeing this, the Queen Mother of the West opened her mouth to speak, then sighed inwardly and vanished from the spot.

Nuwa glanced at the Queen Mother of the West, gave a muttered snort, and turned to Fuxi, saying, "Elder brother, I sense an opportunity. Let's go."

Pangu's spine, Mount Buzhou.

At this moment, a group of holy beings and great powers vanished from the chaos, turning into streams of light that flew towards Mount Buzhou.

Before they even got close to Buzhou Mountain, a primordial spiritual light appeared in the mountain and shot straight into the sky.

"A magical treasure has appeared in the world!"

"My destiny lies here~~"

Amidst gasps of surprise, these deities, braving the oppressive aura of Mount Buzhou, arrived at a valley.

"A Primordial Spiritual Treasure!"

"Seven!"

On a gourd vine, seven gourds, each radiating a different color (red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple), shimmered with a jewel-like glow.

However, to their surprise, there was already a figure standing there.

When the group of deities looked over, they were startled.

It turned out to be the ancient figure who sat with the Dao Ancestor inside the Zixiao Palace.

For a moment, all the deities who sensed the opportunity in this place were filled with trepidation.

This is a primordial spiritual treasure! Who could bear to part with it?

The Three Pure Ones stood at the very front, followed closely by Nuwa, and then by Hongyun, Zhenyuanzi, Dijun, Taiyi, and a host of other primordial deities.

"We pay our respects to our senior!"

Seeing that Yang Gui remained standing there without saying a word, the group of deities had no choice but to step forward and greet him.

Yang Gui turned his head slightly to look at them, "I am Gui Xuan. Countless years ago, I discovered that the original source of the innate gourd vine here was damaged, so I set out to restore it. Now, I never expected that it would mature today, producing a sky full of rosy light, which attracted you here."

"Have you all come to celebrate my victory?"

The holy figure before him froze, staring at this ancient man who called himself Guixuan, momentarily at a loss for words.

Returning to the origin, all things return to their source, mysterious beyond mystery!

Using this as a Taoist name, the Three Pure Ones and other deities were shocked when they realized what was happening.

They dared not be negligent.

With the treasure before them and their hearts yearning for it even more, Daoist Taiqing, as the eldest brother, had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward, saying, "Senior Guixuan, we sense that this treasure is destined for us. We hope that you will grant our request."

Gui Xuan (Yang Gui) chuckled and waved his hand.

The innate gourd vine, radiating a five-metal spiritual light and soaring straight into the sky, along with the seven treasure gourds, vanished from the spot, leaving no trace.

After doing all this, Yang Gui said with a smile, "You can find the spiritual treasure that is destined for you yourself. Why do you need to ask me for the gourd that I cultivated?"

"senior!!"

"No!!"

"How dare you!!"

Gui Xuan's move instantly alarmed the other deities.

My instinct was to rush forward and grab it.

Di Jun even directly unleashed his companion spirit treasure, the Hetu Luoshu, to attack.

Taiyi followed closely behind, and the Chaos Bell tolled softly.

Time and spacetime were instantly frozen.

Yang Gui narrowed his eyes, "As expected of a supreme innate treasure."

The laws of the Great Dao shone brightly, forcefully breaking free from the constraints of the Chaos Bell.

boom!

A powerful aura suddenly erupted, making the two golden crows feel a suffocating pressure rushing towards them.

Ta-da!

They were all shaken and forced to take a few steps back.

So strong!

With an aura surpassing even that of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, is this what a Quasi-Saint is?!

Yang Gui's expression turned slightly cold. "To think that someone of your high status would dare to see a sacred treasure and presume to seize it by force, to bully the weak with numbers—aren't you ashamed?"

"Senior, we are merely eager, not intending to compete," Hongyun stepped forward and said with a wry smile, "It's just that the opportunity is before us, and we are simply following the call of our hearts."

"An opportunity?" Yang Gui sneered. "As a deity, with great power concentrated within oneself, how could you let a mere inanimate object affect your mind? You are truly laughable."

boom!!

These words were like a heavenly voice that shook the very soul, instantly waking all the saints present.

"What's wrong with me? It's just a magical treasure." Taiqing Daoist was shocked.

As a manifestation of Pangu's primordial spirit, and accompanied by a treasure of merit, his heart was as indifferent as water. Yet, for the sake of a spiritual treasure, he dared to disregard his own safety and attack a quasi-saint!

Taiqing Daoist immediately sensed something was wrong and sent a telepathic message to his two brothers, only to find that it was the same for both of them.

Just now, the three brothers seemed to have been affected by something.

A sinister glint flashed in Taiqing Daoist's eyes. "Thank you, senior!"

Nuwa also stepped forward, glanced at Yang Gui, and whispered her thanks.

Only Di Jun, Tai Yi, Hong Yun, and the others still looked completely bewildered.

The two golden crows were filled with resentment. If they hadn't been wary of Yang Gui's strength, they would have already made a move to fight for him.

Yang Gui nodded, "He is indeed a promising talent."

The three Pure Ones and Nuwa are deeply rooted in the world and are destined to be sages.

His comprehension is extraordinary; he understands things instantly.

When Yang Gui arrived at the gourd vine on Buzhou Mountain, he sensed that something was wrong.

After he picked a seven-colored gourd from the gourd vine, seven more gourds of various colors grew on it.

Each gourd is a primordial spiritual treasure. Six of them are destined to be associated with the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Taiyi, and Hongyun. After they matured, they were picked one by one. The seventh gourd is purple.

According to the normal procedure, after the gourd is picked by the destined person, it withers and dies, leaving only the gourd vine.

The gourd vine was nurtured by the soil of life and was taken away by Nuwa along with the vine. Both were used to create humans. After absorbing the merit of creating humans, the gourd vine became a magical artifact, also known as the Creation Whip. Nuwa bestowed it upon the later Earth Sovereign Shennong to use for braiding medicine.

However, due to Yang Gui's intervention, which replenished some of the innate essence of the gourd vine, the purple gourd still looked somewhat young and malnourished.

Even more terrifying, he also felt that he had a connection with one of the seven gourds.

It was still that smallest purple gourd.

Now that he's come this far, if Yang Gui still doesn't understand what's going on, he'd be letting down his roots as the Chaos Demon God.

Sure enough, the next second...

A glint of white light flashed in Di Jun's eyes, and he couldn't help but say, "Senior, your opportunities are preordained by heaven, yet you monopolize them. Isn't that a bit incongruous with your status?"

Yang Gui's eyes turned cold. "This is never going to end!"

He clenched his right fist and vanished, his speed so fast that Di Jun couldn't react at all.

The Three Pure Ones and other sacred beings were all astonished.

Because none of them could see how Yang Gui made his move.

Boom!

A soft sound.

Di Jun's body shattered, and golden blood splattered across the sky.

"Brother!!!"

Taiyi let out a mournful roar and quickly rushed to Dijin's side.

Di Jun's body surged with the True Fire of the Sun, and his shattered body rapidly regenerated. He looked at Yang Gui with a pale face and said, "Senior, what skill!"

"My brother and I will remember what happened today!"

coming! coming!

It must be that old bastard Hongjun. I sensed something was wrong after I saw him at Buzhou Mountain last time.

After preaching, he did something to make himself compete with the Three Pure Ones for the gourd.

"That old bastard is trying to gradually weaken my luck and lower my status among these deities."

He's acting like a senior now, competing with these juniors for things. What will others think of him?

"That old bastard probably didn't expect me to take everything away and awaken their minds."

As for the two golden crows, Di Jun and Tai Yi...

He also coveted the Hetu Luoshu and the Chaos Bell!

Yang Gui thought to himself.

Her eyes flashed, "Can't I even take my things?"

"If you're not satisfied, you can take another punch from me!!"

One more punch and I won't hold back; you'll die!

Di Jun opened his mouth, "Me!"

At this moment, he didn't understand what had happened to him, that he had actually tried to steal someone else's spiritual treasure.

He was just indignant that he couldn't get the treasure he had, and he wasn't stupid; those two from the West were slapped away, how could he possibly be a match for them?

Moreover, this person before them seemed to have fought with a sage in the chaos and escaped unscathed.

I'm afraid I'm close to the level of a saint, if not quite.

I actually dared to lay a hand on him.

Taiyi stepped forward, looking helplessly at Yang Gui, "My brother and I were in the wrong today, we hope you will forgive us, senior; elder brother, let's go!"

Before Di Jun could speak again, she pulled him away from Buzhou Mountain.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit off, Hongyun, Zhen Yuanzi, and the others said goodbye and left.

However, not long after they flew away...

An astonishing scene unfolded.

Above the nine heavens, six colorful rays appeared.

It transformed into six rays of light, scattered from the primordial world, and fell into the hands of some people.

Bu Zhou Shan Nei.

The Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and the others looked at the gourd in their hands with astonishment.

Yang Gui smiled and said, "Look, this is your destiny..."
