Primordial Era: Reborn as a Tortoise, with Unparalleled Comprehension

Chapter 9 Supreme Spiritual Root, Opening the Heavens with a Tortoise Shell

In a valley.

It was filled with spiritual energy, and its mystery was extraordinary.

The spiritual energy of the five elements and the light of the laws of the five elements gather here.

Looking out, Yang Gui saw a three-thousand-foot-tall ancient pine tree standing tall in the valley.

The branches resembled a dragon coiling around, each representing one of the five elements and five colors, each occupying its own territory.

Its roots are firmly planted in the void, breathing in and out the chaotic energy.

Upon closer inspection, each area contains the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Each of the five elements and five colors contains ten fruits, for a total of fifty fruits.

The fruit above is plump and full, each one looking incredibly fresh and delicious.

I wonder how many eons it took to form to become this crystallization.

"A top-grade spiritual root, the Five-Needle Pine!"

Yang Gui was deeply shaken.

I never expected that the Five-Needle Pine, one of the Ten Great Spiritual Roots of the Primordial World, would appear here.

The ten primordial spiritual roots are: Yellow Plum, Flat Peach, Ginseng Fruit, Bitter Bamboo, Laurel Tree, Hibiscus Tree, Bodhi Tree, Gourd Vine, Immortal Apricot, and Five-Needle Pine.

Most of them have their own abodes, while some are rarely seen in the world.

The five-needle pine is the most inconspicuous and mysterious among the ten spiritual roots.

What a great opportunity! What a stroke of luck!

Yang Gui was overjoyed and arrived near the five-needle pine in no time.

The closer you get to the five-needle pine, the stronger the five elements' principles become.

"The Primordial Five Elements Great Dao!"

Upon closer inspection, Yang Gui discovered that the Five-Needle Pine was actually condensing the innate Five Elements Great Dao Laws!

Legend has it that most of the Ten Great Spiritual Roots originated from the chaos before the creation of the world. Their origins were damaged by the impact of Pangu's creation of the world, and they flowed into the primordial world.

For various reasons, most of them are unable to form consciousness and manifest it.

These five-needle pines possess the Five Elements Dao, far surpassing the profoundness of the Five Elements Heavenly Dao Laws that Yang Gui has now comprehended.

Until now.

Yang Gui possesses the following Dao Laws: the Boundless Dao Laws comprehended from the Chaos Pearl, the Defensive Dao Laws he controls, the Qiankun Dao Law he comprehended from the Qiankun Ancestor, and the Speed ​​Dao Law he comprehended from the Speed ​​Demon God.

The rest are the laws of the primordial world.

The laws engraved on the fragments of the Jade Disc of Creation are mostly incomplete due to the damage to the Jade Disc of Creation, with only a few laws remaining intact.

Those incomplete laws, influenced by the primordial laws of the Heavenly Dao, gradually degenerated into the laws of the Heavenly Dao.

Seeing the innate Five Elements Great Dao Laws today, how could Yang Gui not be overjoyed?

He immediately sat down cross-legged and began to comprehend the truth with his extraordinary comprehension.

"You observe the five-needle pine, comprehend the laws of the Five Elements, and gain profound insights..."

"·····"

He sat there for three thousand years.

Yang Gui's entire body was intertwined with the five elements, merging into the surrounding space.

"Ah!"

With a soft shout, Yang Gui transformed into a giant tortoise, revealing his true form.

The thick, mysterious tortoise shell is covered with Taoist patterns.

Suddenly, the Five Elements Pearl, a primordial spiritual treasure, appeared and hung on the turtle's back.

"Based on the Five Elements and the Heavenly Dao, they evolve into Earth, Water, Wind, and Fire!"

"The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth created the universe, open!"

A vast amount of primordial spirit power surged into the tortoise's back, and endless magical power rolled around.

In the blink of an eye, a miniature, hazy space appeared on the turtle's back.

The moment the space appeared, Yang Gui made another move.

The Five Elements Beads fell into space, signifying, "Heaven and Earth, Yin and Yang, are divided into the Five Elements; from the Five Elements, all things are born!"

"Heaven and earth, open!"

The immense laws of the Five Elements intertwined on the Five Elements Pearl, instantly elevating its quality from a low-grade innate spiritual treasure to a high-grade innate spiritual treasure.

The light of the spiritual treasure surged, causing spatial turbulence.

The light of the Five Elements Beads' rotating laws illuminated the hazy space, breaking through the chaos.

Heaven and earth were separated, evolving into earth, water, wind, and fire, which in turn became the five elements scattered throughout the world.

Heaven rises and earth falls!

soon.

The earth appeared, the sky took shape, yet there was a sense of impending collapse.

"If we don't act now, when will we?"

At a command, the Chaos Pearl, which had been partially refined, appeared in a new world, and boundless laws emerged, shaking the void.

The boundless laws and supreme principles suppress everything!

In the blink of an eye, heaven and earth were stabilized.

The Chaos Pearl floats in the void, stabilizing the heavens and earth;

Endless chaotic energy appeared, creating the world.

Hundreds of feet, thousands of feet, tens of thousands of feet!

It didn't stop until it reached 100,000 li.

The Chaos Pearl, like the sun, emitted a hazy light in the air.

"Five-needle pine, advance!"

Yang Gui's eyes widened. In the distance, the five-needle pine rooted in the void sensed the pull of chaos and the boundless guidance of the supreme law; its roots left the void and entered Yang Gui's tortoise shell.

Rooted in the center of heaven and earth, it absorbs endless chaotic energy.

The Five Elements Pearls hang in the sky, absorbing the laws of the Great Dao.

"It's done!"

Yang Gui transformed into human form, his face beaming with joy.

An introduction to the Five Elements and their principles, using a tortoise shell as a medium to reenact the transformation of earth, water, wind, and fire into all things.

The Chaos Pearl stabilizes the world, and then the chaotic power of the Five Needle Pine is used to provide a massive amount of spiritual energy to the world behind it.

A small chiliocosm was fully formed.

His own cultivation level reached the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, approaching perfection.

The next step is the realm of the Primordial Golden Immortal.

With a thought, five fruits representing the five elements—metal, wood, water, fire, and earth—appeared in Yang Gui's hand, which he promptly swallowed.

The laws of the Five Elements permeated his body, transforming into five-colored light.

The divine power patterns rapidly condensed.

Yang Gui stretched out his palm, and five-colored divine light intertwined, causing the space to tremble!

"From this day forward, the Five-Colored Divine Light will no longer be Kong Xuan's unique supernatural power!"

The five-colored divine light can sweep away and destroy anything.

In Yang Gui's hands, it becomes even stronger!

After picking five five-needle pines, a phantom pine cone reappeared in the previously empty spot.

It absorbs the endless power of the five elements from all around.

"The fruit of the second generation." Yang Gui understood.

The first generation of five-needle pines has reached its limit, even if they are not harvested and have been stored for hundreds of thousands of years.

After understanding the key to it, he picked all the five-needle pine fruits for later use.

Only a few dozen illusory pine cones remained, absorbing and exhaling the laws of the five elements.

Along his journey, he had collected various spiritual plants and trees, which he then put into the small world behind him.

In an instant, the spiritual plants within the small world grew wildly.

Having done all this, Yang Gui moved forward again.

Mount Buzhou is teeming with treasures!

Although many magical treasures from later calamities did not appear, the various rare and exotic objects and magical treasures from the prehistoric Buzhou Mountain, which had not been destroyed by Rahu, possessed the strongest spiritual energy.

Once Rahu shatters the western spiritual veins, the world will be damaged and affected.

After the rapid loss of innate energy, it will be difficult to find spiritual objects as abundant as during this period.

"There are still nearly 40,000 yuanhui left, I need to hurry."

Yang Gui felt a sense of urgency.

Upon reaching the late stage of the Great Luo realm, he clearly sensed an extremely powerful barrier to his cultivation.

That was the barrier preventing him from reaching the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal or Quasi-Saint.

The world is different now. Even though he was once a Primordial Golden Immortal, as the origin of the Chaos Demon God, he was injured and lost due to the attack of Pangu, the creator of the world.

To return to the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal and once again reach the Quasi-Saint realm, one must first replenish the original power within the body.

In this primordial world, filled with innate spiritual energy but with very little chaotic energy, life is exceptionally difficult.

Now, a top-grade spiritual root, the Five-Needle Pine, is located in the Turtle Back World, drawing upon the power of the void and chaos.

Yang Gui's body rapidly absorbed the power of chaos, while his primordial power slowly replenished itself.

With his extraordinary comprehension and understanding of the primordial world, his future is promising!

"Legend has it that Fuxi and Nuwa took human form at Buzhou Mountain. I wonder if they ever met."

"Judging by the time, these great supernatural beings of later generations will soon be born."

There are more than just these two powerful individuals hidden within Mount Buzhou.

The twelve ancestral witches seem to be somewhere on Buzhou Mountain, yet to be born.

However, Mount Buzhou, as the pillar of heaven, is extremely large and covers a vast area.

It is relatively difficult to find traces of these powerful beings here.

The higher Yang Gui climbed, the more immense the pressure he felt.

The more intense the pressure from Pangu, the stronger it became.
