Honghuang: My understanding is beyond belief. I am the first immortal of Jiejiao.

Chapter 12: The fortune in Fangzhang Island, the great disaster, and the two acquired treasures!

The ruler floated in the air, but it gave Lin Zhu a huge pressure.

He was sure that the quality of the ruler must be very good.

Lin Zhu did not rush to collect it, but instead extended his spiritual sense and slowly reached out towards the ruler.

Soon, the information about the ruler appeared in Lin Zhu's sea of ​​consciousness.

Hongmeng measuring ruler!
Lin Zhu never imagined that the ruler in front of him was actually the legendary Hongmeng Measuring Ruler.

The Hongmeng Measuring Ruler is a treasure of acquired merits.

When Pangu created the world, the Three Pure Ones received 30% of the merit, the Witch Clan received 10%, and the remaining 40% of the merit was given to all things in the universe.

One of them was the merit for the creation of the world, which evolved into the supreme treasure of acquired merit, the Mysterious Pagoda of Heaven and Earth, which was obtained by Laozi.

The remaining 10% of the merit for creating the world evolved into the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, and its whereabouts disappeared.

Unexpectedly, this Hongmeng Calamity Ruler was actually hidden on Fangzhang Island.

This is a treasure of acquired merit!

For a moment, Lin Zhu's blood boiled.

This is such a great opportunity!

I never thought that one day I would be able to obtain the treasure of acquired merit.

As long as he puts away the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler and refines it, his combat power will definitely increase greatly.

The Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Tower is gentle in nature and mainly focuses on defense, while the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler is mainly for killing.

The most important thing is that he has obtained twelve Dinghai Divine Pearls. The Hongmeng Measuring Ruler can break the restrictions of the Dinghai Divine Pearls and evolve the heavens.

Lin Zhu quickly waved his hand, and a stream of magic power rolled towards the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler.

However, the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler made a loud roar and directly bounced away Lin Zhu's magic power.

If Lin Zhu had not seen the opportunity quickly, he would have been injured by the measuring ruler.

Such a strong murderous aura.

Lin Zhu couldn't help but be amazed, and at the same time, he was even more delighted.

At that moment, he sat cross-legged, slowly extended his spiritual sense, and began to refine the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler.

As long as you get the approval of Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, you can put it away.

Time passed in a flash, and a hundred years later, Lin Zhu finally communicated with the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler and gained its recognition.

Then he waved his hand, and the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler flew towards him and fell into Lin Zhu's hands.

Lin Zhu looked at the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler in his hand with a mixture of surprise and joy.

After collecting the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, Lin Zhu sensed Xuandu's situation and saw that Xuandu was still searching on the island.

So he continued to explore Fangzhang Island.

Lin Zhu continued to explore and gained a lot of treasures.

One day, Lin Zhu suddenly had a feeling in his heart, and then he was overjoyed.

He sensed that a powerful wood plant was not far away.

Lin Zhu followed the sensation and soon found a spiritual bamboo emitting flowing light not far away.

The Lingzhu bamboo has a pitch-black body and lush branches and leaves, and is quite inconspicuous on Fangzhang Island.

If Lin Zhu hadn't felt it, he would have missed this treasure.

Lin Zhu recognized at a glance that this spiritual bamboo was no ordinary item, but the bitter bamboo, one of the ten innate spiritual roots in the prehistoric world!
This spiritual root is an innate spiritual root transformed by the Great Dao, and its appearance is exactly the same as that of a green bamboo.

But the whole body is shrouded in endless sorrow and misery. No matter what kind of creature it is, even if it has supernatural powers, anyone who is confused by the bitter bamboo's sorrow will lose all hope and commit suicide in front of the bitter bamboo.

However, although bitter bamboo is dangerous, if you can survive its sadness, it will be of great help to your spiritual practice.

From then on, all the inner demons are gone and the six senses are pure.

As a nine-section bamboo, his roots are naturally far inferior to his innate spiritual roots, not to mention the bitter bamboo which is among the top ten innate spiritual roots.

In the ancient times, the bitter bamboo was obtained by the Taoist Jie Yin, who refined it into the magic weapon Six Roots of Pure Bamboo, which has infinite power.

Logically speaking, bitter bamboo should grow in the west, but for some reason, Lin Zhu found one on Fangzhang Island.

Could it be that there is more than one bitter bamboo?
Lin Zhu looked at the bitter bamboo in front of him, touched his chin, thought about something, and finally nodded slightly.

"I share the same origin as this bitter bamboo. If I can absorb the innate energy it emits for cultivation, perhaps I can increase my cultivation speed!"

In the ancient times, roots are extremely important.

Although Lin Zhu has been practicing diligently, it is not necessarily impossible for him to achieve enlightenment. But if his foundation is deep, the path of cultivation will be much smoother and the bottlenecks he encounters will be much smaller.

As for the roots of the innate bitter bamboo, needless to say, if one can absorb the innate energy emitted from it for cultivation, the speed of cultivation will definitely be greatly improved.

At that moment, Lin Zhu sat cross-legged beside the bitter bamboo and began to absorb the innate energy from the bitter bamboo.

A trace of innate energy was drawn out by Lin Zhu and absorbed into his body.

Time passes.

A hundred years later, Xuandu finished his exploration and arrived near Linzhu.

Seeing Lin Zhu absorbing the bitter bamboo's innate energy, he sat cross-legged not far away and casually refined the treasures he had obtained on the island.

The two of them had been on Fangzhang Island for more than a thousand years.

As Lin Zhu absorbed the innate energy of Kuzhu, his own cultivation level continued to increase, and there was a faint sense of sadness around his body.

After a thousand years, he finally absorbed all the innate energy emitted by the bitter bamboo.

Lin Zhu opened his eyes and slowly stood up.

Lin Zhu's movement immediately alarmed Xuan Du who was in seclusion. Xuan Du flashed and appeared next to Lin Zhu.

He had already sensed Lin Zhu's changes.

Lin Zhu's breath became longer and deeper, and he looked profound and inscrutable.

Faintly, as he got closer, Xuan Du even felt a slight palpitation!
"Congratulations, senior brother. You have made great progress." Xuan Du stepped forward to congratulate him.

How could he know that as Lin Zhu absorbed the bitter bamboo's innate energy, his cultivation also improved greatly.

Now, he has gone from just stepping into the Xuanxian realm to the late stage of the Xuanxian realm.

Although Xuan Du had gained something, he still remained at the initial stage of becoming a Xuanxian.

Lin Zhu looked at Xuan Du: "Junior brother, did you gain anything?"

Xuan Du nodded slightly: "I got a lot of natural treasures."

Lin Zhu said: "Now, the treasures on the island have been plundered by you and me. There is no point in staying here. It is better to return to Kunlun, digest what we have gained, and improve our cultivation."

"Okay!" Over the years, Xuan Du has become accustomed to following Lin Zhu's arrangements, so he naturally agreed.

The two of them immediately left Fangzhang Island and flew towards the East China Sea.

Before I knew it, several months had passed.

One day, the two were on their way when suddenly an island appeared before them.

The island was filled with spiritual energy and had towering ancient trees, but there was also a sinister aura emanating from it.

The two of them stopped immediately.

Xuan Du said: "Brother, this island seems to have some mysteries. Who knows, there may be treasures there."

Lin Zhu felt vaguely uneasy.

However, he has now reached the late stage of Xuanxian realm, and he also has the Purple Lightning Hammer and the protective sword Qingping Sword.

Xuan Du even obtained the Tai Chi diagram from Lao Tzu, so even if there is a crisis, the two of them should be able to escape unscathed.

"Junior brother, this island seems to be filled with danger. You and I need to be careful. If the situation turns out not to be right, retreat immediately." Lin Zhu ordered.

"Okay!" Xuan Du also felt that there was a murderous aura on the island and nodded slightly.

At that moment, the two of them flew down and landed towards the island.

Landing on the island, the murderous aura around him became even stronger. Lin Zhu had to be more careful and extended his spiritual sense to the surroundings.

Only then did I discover that there were many ruined caves on the island.

These caves are completely empty, and the owners of the caves are nowhere to be found. It seems that they have been abandoned for countless years.

"This place should have been the place where the ancient monks practiced Taoism." Xuan Du said on the side.

Lin Zhu touched his chin and said, "Not really. There are many caves here, and the evil aura is extremely strong. The ancient monks all like to practice alone, so how can there be so many caves?"

Lin Zhu couldn't help but feel extremely confused. At the same time, his mind was turning, and he was counting the forces of the past in the ancient times in his mind.

Suddenly his eyelids twitched and he remembered.

"Come on!"

Lin Zhu shouted quickly.
