Primordial Era: I am the Bull Demon King, the First Demon of All Time

Chapter 55: After eating the Yellow Plum, he finally obtained a primordial treasure!

With his vast divine sense, Chen Jing directly probed the human settlement and instantly witnessed countless images of himself.

That's right, they are countless Chen Jings, but these so-called selves are not flesh-and-blood entities, but stone sculptures.

Beneath the stone carvings, countless humans were performing a ritual.

This scene puzzled Chen Jing.

The reason is that on that day, Chen Jing spoke to the three ancestors of the human race across the void, saying, "As heaven's movement is ever vigorous, so should a gentleman constantly strive for self-improvement."

These profound words deeply moved the three ancestors and guided the future direction of the human race.

The three ancestors of the human race were well aware of Chen Jing's contributions to the human race.

To express their gratitude to this immortal, the Third Patriarch proposed building a statue of Chen Jing and holding sacrifices on major festivals.

Chen Jing's divine sense witnessed everything before him.

Having lived as a human in his previous life, he deeply understands the human race's sense of gratitude.

However, he never expected that the humans would act in this way.

After observing for a moment, Chen Jing immediately flew away from the place and returned to his cave.

He did that thing simply because he felt like it, without thinking much about it.

Now that the crisis for humanity has passed, Chen Jing has no intention of interfering in their development any further.

In addition, before parting, Lao Tzu reminded him that it was okay to help the human race occasionally, but too much interference would cause dissatisfaction.

Humans' actions are their own choices, and Laozi cannot do anything to Chen Jing, nor will Chen Jing forcibly interfere.

For him, this was something that did no harm to himself; he even wished it were so.

Back in the cave, Mo Lin was sleeping at the entrance.

Chen Jing looked at his mount, which had followed him for over 100,000 years, and found it somewhat amusing.

Although Mo Lin had followed him for a long time, his nature as a wandering demon was hard to change.

Most of the wandering demons in the primordial world do not actively cultivate, but instead live carefree lives.

Mo Lin has improved a lot since he started following him.

Chen Jing did not disturb Mo Lin and went directly into the cave.

The injury has almost healed, but it has not yet fully recovered to its best condition.

Back in his cave, Chen Jing felt at peace.

But before he began his cultivation, he took out the yellow treasure chest he had obtained at the entrance of the Eight Views Palace and opened it without hesitation.

"Congratulations, host. You have opened the yellow treasure chest and obtained one Yin-Yang Origin Fruit."

Suddenly, Chen Jing held a fruit that exuded a strong yin-yang aura.

This fruit is half golden and half dark, clearly representing the two poles of yin and yang.

The fruit is crystal clear, and the flesh inside is fully visible.

The golden and dark-colored flesh emits different colors of light, which intertwine to form a mysterious pattern on the surface of the fruit.

These patterns subtly reveal the principles of Taoism.

Chen Jing had never heard of a fruit that possessed both yin and yang energies before.

At this moment, even an ordinary person could sense the extraordinary nature of this fruit, and Chen Jing was no exception.

As soon as the fruit appeared, the cave was immediately filled with yin and yang energy.

The atmosphere was both strange and captivating, and difficult to put into words.

Upon seeing the fruit, Chen Jing immediately thought of the principles of Yin and Yang.

This fruit contains the principles of Yin and Yang, and the patterns on its surface clearly demonstrate the laws of Yin and Yang.

Clearly, this fruit cannot directly increase one's cultivation level.

Chen Jing immediately put the fruit away.

He plans to first restore his strength to its peak.

In the primordial world, cultivators who cultivate primordial spirit power are constantly absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Even without cultivation, the accumulation of time may allow them to break through in their cultivation level.

But this could take millions or even tens of millions of years.

This slow absorption rate is far less effective than focused practice.

Over the decades, Chen Jing's physical body and primordial spirit have both recovered to their peak state.

"Buzz!"

With his cultivation fully restored to its peak, Chen Jing suddenly opened his eyes, and a bright light shot out from them. A terrifying aura instantly erupted from his body.

This terrifying aura spread from inside the cave to the outside.

Mo Lin, who was dozing at the entrance of the cave, suddenly woke up, immediately stood up, and looked around warily with a tense expression.

After a while, Mo Lin looked back in confusion, his gaze fixed on the depths of the cave.

He noticed that his owner was watching him.

At this moment, Mo Lin looked like a child who had done something wrong, lowering his head in shame and filled with fear.

Because his master had entrusted him with guarding the cave, but he hadn't noticed his master's return, which made Mo Lin feel uneasy.

He was worried that his negligence would anger his master.

Now, although it is just a mount, since following Chen Jing, its cultivation level and the benefits it has gained have far exceeded the level when it cultivated alone.

"Master, I was so tired from cultivating that I accidentally fell asleep."

Seeing Mo Lin's humble demeanor, he was completely devoid of the arrogance he displayed during their previous battle.

Chen Jing chuckled to himself.

He did not respond to Mo Lin's words, but instead brought the girl he had rescued from the shores of the East Sea out of the small world of the black stone bead and entrusted her to Mo Lin's care. Then he focused on entering that small world again.

Although it was somewhat inappropriate for Mo Lin to take care of the girl, there were only the two of them in the cave, so there was no other choice.

More than four hundred years have passed, and the girl has hardly changed, except that she has grown into an adult, and the fear that was once in her eyes has disappeared.

If she were still that ordinary child, even if she struggled to survive the invasion of the demon race, she might now be nothing more than a pile of bones.

However, after meeting Chen Jing, her life trajectory changed completely.

Furthermore, having absorbed the celestial energy emanating from the Huangzhong plum tree, its innate qualities and aptitude underwent a tremendous transformation, allowing it to live for thousands of years even without cultivation.

The little girl was not afraid of the burly Mo Lin in front of her.

Although Mo Lin has a rough appearance, he is not malicious.

On the contrary, Mo Lin's eyes brightened when he saw the little girl.

He's all alone here and so bored; it would be nice to have someone to talk to.

He remembered clearly that when Chen Jing handed the little girl over to him, he was given a specific task.

Chen Jing focused intently on entering the small world and witnessed nine fruits with the characters "Huang" and "Zhong" carved on them hanging on the Huangzhong plum tree, growing on a tree full of spiritual energy.

He has kept the Huangzhong plum tree for over 100,000 years, during which time it has produced nine fruits, but he had never noticed them before.

He only discovered this after sending the little girl into the small world.

Now that everything has been dealt with, my cultivation level has returned to its peak.

He planned to try the effects of the fruit produced by the Huangzhong Plum Tree, one of the ten innate spiritual roots.

Chen Jing picked all nine fruits to avoid interfering with their new growth cycle.

He immediately used his immortal energy to wrap the other eight fruits and store them in this small world, while holding the ninth fruit in his hand.

Chen Jing stared at the yellow plum in his hand, about the size of a walnut.

The fruit shimmered with divine light, and intense spiritual energy constantly assaulted his senses, while a delicate fragrance wafted into his nostrils.

"Gurgle!"

Swallow the fruit in one gulp, and the bitter taste immediately spreads in your mouth, completely opposite to the fragrant aroma you smelled earlier.
