Primordial Era: I am the chief disciple of the Three Pure Ones, the gatekeeper of the Great Dao.

Chapter 15 The Way of Weapon Forging: The Spatial Willow Tree!

Pangu's primordial spirit transformed into the Three Pure Ones, each inheriting a different lineage of Taoism.

Taiqing Laozi was in charge of alchemy, and the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir he refined was a rare treasure in the world.

Just one pill is enough to transform a mortal body into a Great Immortal.

The Tongtian Sect Leader was unparalleled in the world for his array formations and swordsmanship.

The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation they deployed was the most dangerous killing formation in the world, and could not be broken by anyone other than four sages.

With a single swing of the Qingping Sword in his hand, he cleaved through the eternal night and created a new world.

As for Yuanshi Tianzun, he inherited the art of weapon crafting.

In the primordial history, he once crafted natal magic weapons for the disciples of the Chan Sect.

Among them, the most praised is the Fantian Seal he made for Guangchengzi of the Chan Sect using half of Buzhou Mountain.

This seal is incredibly powerful, comparable to a half-step acquired treasure, capable of suppressing all falsehoods and evil.

The Immortal-Slaying Sword of Jade Cauldron Immortal and the Nine Dragons Fire Cover of Taiyi Immortal were both crafted by Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

Unfortunately, after hundreds of millions of years, no one has been found to inherit the mantle of weapon crafting.

The Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect did not possess outstanding talent in the art of weapon crafting.

"If we can persuade Master Yuanshi to accept Duobao as a disciple of the Chan Sect."

"Not only will it allow the crafting skills of Yuanshi Tianzun to be passed down, but it will also ease the relationship between the Chan Sect and the Jie Sect."

Cang Xuan looked at Duobao with great satisfaction.

Just as he was deep in thought, Duobao asked expectantly:

"Senior brother, what kind of test is it?"

Duobao knew in his heart that becoming a disciple of the Three Pure Ones was by no means an easy task.

The senior brother in front of me appears to be just a gatekeeper disciple of Kunlun Mountain.

In reality, they are likely the test subjects arranged by the Three Pure Ones, responsible for selecting and testing those with affinity.

Cihang, however, harbored wicked intentions and was not even qualified to join the sect.

Being qualified for the trial is itself an affirmation, indicating that his future is full of infinite possibilities.

Even if they don't ultimately join the Xuanmen sect, they will still achieve great things!

"Please wait a moment while I go to Jade Void Palace to fetch the materials for your trial."

After saying that, Cang Xuan rode on auspicious clouds and flew towards the Jade Void Palace at the top of Kunlun Mountain.

A moment later, he returned from Jade Void Palace, carrying several strange items in his hands.

Boom!

Accompanied by a dull thud.

A weapon-refining furnace was placed in front of the Kunlun Mountain gate.

"Could it be that the trial my senior brother mentioned is related to weapon crafting?"

Duobao was filled with doubts and couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.

My gaze fell upon the refining furnace, where flames were rising, clearly indicating that it was an innate spiritual treasure.

"This refining furnace was once used by the Primordial Celestial Venerable and is called the Hunyuan Yin-Yang Furnace."

"The flames in the furnace are taken from the Ancient Flame of Myriad Spirits in the Jade Void Glazed Lamp, which has the power to create all things."

"Furthermore, I have also obtained some spiritual materials from heaven and earth that the Primordial Celestial Venerable had left unused, which I bestow upon you for your trial."

"If you can refine the Xuan Tian Jade Screen by millions of hammer blows, you can upgrade it to a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure."

"I will then allow you to enter Kunlun Mountain, pay homage to the Three Pure Ones, and become their personal disciples."

"how?"

Cangxuan set up this test in the hope that Yuanshi Tianzun could see Duobao's talent for weapon crafting.

This was to change the prejudice that Yuanshi Tianzun held about one's origin and background.

In Cang Xuan's view, Duo Bao's becoming a disciple of the Tongtian Sect Master was simply a waste of his talent.

Yuanshi Tianzun and the Chan Sect undoubtedly need disciples like Duobao even more.

"Personal disciple?"

These four words struck Duobao like a thunderclap, stirring his mind and causing his legs to tremble involuntarily.

"Fellow Daoist Duobao, you must hold on!"

Fortunately, Huang Long, who was standing nearby, reacted quickly and steadied Duobao, preventing him from falling to the ground.

Huang Long listened silently to their conversation.

When he heard that Duobao had the opportunity to become a direct disciple of the Three Pure Ones, he could hardly contain his envy.

The direct disciples of the Three Pure Ones!

The significance of this identity is far from ordinary.

Even those powerful Grand Luo Golden Immortals would probably find it hard to resist this temptation.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Huanglong, for your help."

Duobao suppressed his excitement and cast a grateful glance at Huanglong.

Then he took a deep breath and tried to calm his chaotic thoughts.

His gaze fell once again on the Primordial Yin-Yang Furnace and the Ancient Flame of Myriad Spirits rising within it.

It is extremely difficult to refine the Xuan Tian Jade Screen into a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure.

Although it is only a difference in rank, it is a world of difference that is difficult to overcome.

"Duobao, are you hesitating? Do you want to give up?"

Cang Xuan looked at Duo Bao's hesitant face and asked expressionlessly.

He intends to unleash Duobao's potential in this way.

"Senior brother, I'm willing to accept the test!"

"Dedicate yourself to studying the art of weapon crafting and continuously improve your understanding of it."

Duobao shuddered, immediately straightened his back, and his gaze became firm.

He knew that only by facing the difficulties head-on could he seize a glimmer of hope.

If you refuse this test, you will be shut out of Kunlun Mountain.

Therefore, Duobao decided to take a gamble.

How will you know what lies ahead if you don't try?

Seeing this, Cang Xuan nodded in satisfaction, then said in a deep voice:

"Alright, then take the Primordial Yin-Yang Furnace, the Mysterious Jade Screen, and these refining materials with you."

"Heading to the fairy mountain, ten thousand miles away, in the southeast direction of Kunlun Mountain."

"That place is filled with celestial charm and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, making it the perfect place for you to comprehend the secrets of heaven and improve your skills."

"This is the method of weapon forging. Take it and study it carefully, and master it."

After speaking, he lightly waved his sleeve, and his magical power surged, causing a jade slip to fall in front of Duobao.

The jade slip is engraved with the essential principles of weapon crafting, every word a gem, containing endless mysteries.

"I will forever remember your great kindness, Senior Brother, and I will never let you down!"

Duobao bowed respectfully.

At this moment, he understood that Cang Xuan's identity was definitely not ordinary.

The person who could easily retrieve the Hunyuan Liangyi Furnace from the Jade Void Palace was undoubtedly the one whom the Primordial Heavenly Venerable trusted most.

"Go ahead, we'll be waiting for your good news!"

Cang Xuan nodded slightly, indicating that Duobao could leave.

"what?"

"Duobao hasn't even become an apprentice yet, and the system is already giving out rewards?"

Just then, the system's voice rang in Cang Xuan's mind.

【Ding!】

[Congratulations, host, on successfully intercepting and testing Duobao. Reward: Chaos Spiritual Root, Space Willow Tree!]

Within the system space, a bluish light flickered, as if the laws of space had been awakened.

A willow tree stands proudly, towering thousands of feet high, like a pillar supporting the sky.

Every willow branch contains a profound and transformative Daoist philosophy.

Each willow leaf has purple-gold veins.

"Is this the true form of the Space Demon God, Ancestor Yangmei?"

"Even a low-grade Chaos Spiritual Root contains a continuous and unbroken Great Dao of Space."

Cang Xuan was secretly amazed, recognizing the characteristics of the spatial willow tree at a glance.

After observing for a while, he slowly withdrew his gaze and turned his attention to Huanglong.
