Primordial Era: I am a treasure trove, full of magical treasures.

Kunlun Mountain

At this time, the Three Pure Ones, who had been in seclusion for tens of thousands of years, finally emerged from their seclusion.

Tongtian, the most impatient of the three, spoke first: "Eldest brother, second brother, I have now mastered ninety percent of the sword dao law and ninety percent of the array dao law, but the last step seems to be an insurmountable chasm. No matter what I do, I can't comprehend it. Why is that?"

Laozi, the eldest of the Three Pure Ones, nodded slightly and said, "Third brother, don't be impatient. I have long since mastered ninety percent of the Dao of Alchemy and the Dao of Yin and Yang."

Yuanshi nodded slightly and said, "I have mastered ninety percent of my Dao of Weapons and Dao of Thunder, and I can no longer make any progress."

Lao Tzu remained silent for a long time, then raised his hand and stirred the void. His expression was somewhat grim. "I'm afraid this is a restriction of the Heavenly Dao. The Heavenly Dao does not allow one to prove the Dao through laws."

"What should we do? Now that we know there is a problem with the Primordial Purple Qi and that the method of severing corpses also has its drawbacks, the path of proving the Dao through the Law, which was originally the most promising one, is now blocked. Does this mean that we, the Three Pure Ones, can only take the path of becoming saints through merit?"

Tongtian was extremely unwilling to talk about this. After all, the Three Pure Ones were direct descendants of Pangu, yet they were taking the path of achieving sainthood through the least amount of merit and strength.

Upon hearing Tongtian's words, Laozi and Yuanshi frowned, unsure of what to do.

"Why!"

"There is no other way now. As Xuanbao said, the method of severing the three corpses requires using a spiritual treasure of the same origin to sever the corpses in order to achieve the reunification of the three corpses. Unless we destroy our own corpses and use spiritual treasures of the same origin to sever the corpses again, but destroying our own corpses will cause damage to our main body that will take countless eons to recover. It is not worth it."

Just when the Three Pure Ones were at a loss and speechless because of the path to sainthood,

Tongtian spoke up, "I wonder where that brat Xuanbao is now? It's been tens of thousands of years, and he still hasn't returned. I hope nothing bad has happened to him?"

Laozi shook his head slightly and said, "Xuanbao is a blessed child, so he should be fine. However, the matter of becoming a saint is urgent. If he can return at this moment, perhaps he can come up with a new method."

Yuanshi nodded and said, "That's right. Xuanbao now possesses many spiritual treasures and his strength has reached the level of a True Great Luo Golden Immortal. As long as he is not targeted by those top forces, he will basically be fine."

"But we can't figure out Xuanbao's cause and effect or his movements either!" Tongtian said, shrugging his shoulders.

Lao Tzu, the Primordial Beginning: ...

They were at a loss. The last time they asked Xuanbao if he possessed a magical treasure that could conceal the secrets of heaven, Xuanbao said he did not. They could only conclude that Xuanbao's fate was peculiar, and that he might be the one who escaped.

Meanwhile, Xuanbao was already on his way back to Kunlun Mountain from the Dragon Clan.

Before leaving, Xuanbao specifically asked the Dragon Clan to inform the other four clans that they should come to Kunlun Mountain together ten thousand years later to establish the Five Spirits of Heaven and Earth. The Dragon Clan naturally agreed readily.

Before long, the majestic and towering silhouette of Mount Kunlun, reaching into the clouds, came into view. The protective array sensed the aura of the Xuanbao (mysterious treasure) but did not obstruct it.

Just as Xuanbao stepped into the territory of Kunlun Mountain, the Three Pure Ones in the Sanqing Hall naturally sensed Xuanbao's familiar aura.

At the same time, Xuanbao heard his master Tongtian's voice in his mind: "Hurry up and come to the Sanqing Hall."

Xuanbao nodded in response to each of them, and without lingering, went straight to the Sanqing Hall.

Given his status, there was no need for announcements; he simply pushed open the gate of the Sanqing Hall, which contained boundless Daoist charm, and walked inside.

"Masters, your disciple has returned!"

Inside the Sanqing Hall, the three masters sat cross-legged on their prayer mats, their six pairs of eyes scanning Xuanbao up and down. Seeing Xuanbao's purple and blackish aura, they were all satisfied and nodded repeatedly. With such a disciple, what more could a master ask for?

"It's good that you're back" x3

After Xuanbao bowed, Laozi spoke first: "My good disciple, did you encounter any danger on your journey?"

Xuanbao smiled slightly and said, "Master, don't worry. Although there have been some twists and turns, they are all minor. The key is that the matter of the Five Spirits of Heaven and Earth has been settled. The Five Spirits of Heaven and Earth will be established ten thousand years later."

Xuanbao didn't hide anything, talking about visiting the Phoenix Clan, the White Tiger Clan, the Qilin Clan, and so on. However, when he mentioned his experience of having his treasure stolen by Zhunti in the West, the hot-tempered Tongtian drew his Qingping Sword and prepared to set off for the West to find Zhunti and Jieyin to practice his swordsmanship.

Even the usually composed Yuanshi silently took out the Jade Ruyi, preparing to go and meet Zhunti and Jieyin together. It was only because Laozi pulled away two of his brothers that Jieyin and Zhunti were able to get away with it.

However, upon hearing that Xuanbao, a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, had actually defeated a Quasi-Saint and snatched Zhunti away, Yuanshi finally let out his pent-up anger. But when he looked at Xuanbao, his eyes lit up even more. A Grand Luo Golden Immortal who could defeat a Quasi-Saint, hey, is my disciple. It's a matter of pride to tell others.

Later, in the Blood Sea, they fought another great battle with the Styx River, successfully demonstrating their strength against a Quasi-Saint once again. They also managed to rob the Styx River of everything, and several of its spiritual treasures were taken away by Xuanbao.

As Xuanbao spoke, he took out the spiritual treasures he had stolen and displayed them one by one in front of the Three Pure Ones.

Lao Tzu: ...

Yuanshi: ...

Tongtian: ...

After hearing so much, the Three Pure Ones were no longer happy. Looking at the several top-grade innate spiritual treasures in Xuanbao's hands, they couldn't help but sigh that Xuanbao was truly blessed by the heavens.

Others might spend their entire lives trying to acquire even one top-grade innate spiritual treasure, but with Xuanbao, there are more than enough of them.

If Xuanbao weren't their disciple, they probably wouldn't have been able to resist grabbing some too, since it was just too fat, the kind that could fill you up in one bite.

However, since Xuanbao is his disciple, it's alright. This is the prestige of the chief disciple of the Three Pure Ones.
