Primordial Era: Starting with the Immortals of the Jie Sect to Prove the Dao of Hunyuan

Seeing that everyone had come out, Lao Tzu waved his sleeve, and the Great Thousand Worlds transformed into a stream of light, flying into the chaos and slowly revolving around the primordial wilderness.

"Greetings, Master!"

Li Qing and the others knelt down, and were helped up by the Tongtian Sect Leader.

The Grand Master of Heaven smiled broadly and said, "Please sit down."

"Greetings, Master! This disciple is incompetent and has disgraced the Western Sect. I beg you to punish me!"

Maitreya's usually wide-open mouth shut, and he led his Western disciples to kneel down with a thud.

"Foolish child, this is but a small discussion; the road ahead is long."

Zhunti Daoist looked at the palm print on Maitreya's chest that had not yet dissipated, reached out and pointed, and a golden light landed on Maitreya's chest, and the five-colored palm print slowly melted away.

With a sigh, he helped everyone up: "Today you have witnessed the abilities of your fellow Daoist from the Jie Sect. In the future, you must guard against arrogance and impetuosity, strive to cultivate diligently, and attain the Great Luo realm as soon as possible, so that your master will no longer have to worry!"

The Daoist who was guiding the way had been keeping his eyes down and silent, but he opened his eyes and glanced at Li Qing after hearing his disciple's words.

That calm, indifferent glance made Li Qing feel as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him from head to toe.

The Tongtian Sect Leader seemed to sense something, his gaze sweeping over and meeting the Guiding Daoist's eyes for a moment.

The guide lowered his eyes, clasped his hands together, and seemed to have wandered off into the heavens again.

"Master, we have failed your high expectations!"

Seeing the Western Sect members kneeling on the ground, the members of the Chan Sect also knelt down, but they were all dissatisfied.

If the Western Sect disciples hadn't relied on the power of the spiritual treasure, how could they have been so easily defeated by their opponents?

Yuanshi Tianzun saw through their thoughts, but didn't think it was anything special.

After all, that's what he thought too!

If it weren't for Daoist Zhunti's calculated attack on the unsuspecting, and the fact that his carefully selected disciples practiced the Jade Purity Great Law, how could they have lost to the Western Sect!

However, it was still necessary to say some polite words: "Get up! Shame is the mother of courage. You must remember today's defeat. If fate allows, you can learn from our Western Daoist friends and fellow disciples of the Jie Sect in the future!"

Seeing the other two sects in such a state, the disciples of the Jie Sect were unsure whether they should say anything, since although they had lost, their senior brother had won!

The Tongtian Sect Leader shook his head slightly, and Li Qing remained as steady as Mount Tai.

At this moment, the Guide Daoist rose and bowed to the Three Pure Ones and the Goddess Nuwa, saying, "All matters are now concluded. We shall return to the West. Fellow Daoists, we shall meet again in the future!"

"Good. Antarctica, go and see off the two sages from the West."

Lao Tzu nodded and watched the two Western sages depart.

Then, Goddess Nuwa also took her leave, and as usual, Li Qing saw her off.

"Your methods are quite good."

Traveling on the cloud path of Kunlun Mountain, Goddess Nuwa took out the Map of Mountains and Rivers: "When this treasure lights up, you will naturally know what is inside. At that time, if you have attained the Great Luo realm, then go down the mountain and use this treasure to find your way to me in Nuwa Heaven."

"If you haven't attained the Great Luo realm, even if you only comprehend a fraction of this treasure, it will be a small opportunity I, as your elder, am giving you."

Li Qing's expression turned serious.

The Map of Mountains and Rivers, the protective treasure of the Goddess Nuwa, and the Red Embroidered Ball, one offensive and one defensive, were mentioned by the Tongtian Sect Leader when he was listing the primordial spiritual treasures. Both of them are among the top ten innate spiritual treasures, and their origins can be traced back to the thirty-sixth grade Chaos Green Lotus!

To be able to comprehend such a treasure is indeed a stroke of luck!

"Thank you, Uncle-Master. I will certainly live up to your expectations."

"No need to thank me, it's your teacher who has gone to a lot of trouble for you. Out of respect for your teacher, I'll give you another piece of advice."

Nuwa spoke calmly and slowly. Seeing that Li Qing's expression was serious and he did not show any disrespect for the Great Law, she continued, "When you have time, take the Map of Mountains and Rivers and go to your eldest grandmaster. Ask him to send you to the Great Thousand World that we six sages created together."

Li Qing frowned slightly. He had just come out of that vast world and hadn't sensed anything extraordinary!

Since he couldn't figure it out, Li Qing asked directly, "What wonders does that vast world possess? Please enlighten me, Martial Uncle!"

"It cannot be spoken, it cannot be spoken. You will understand it for yourself once you reach the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm!"

Nuwa shook her head, and five-colored rays of light emanated from beneath her feet. The next moment, purple mist filled the sky, and Nuwa vanished into thin air.

"Is it another Great Immortal?"

Li Qing pondered for a moment, then suppressed his various thoughts and returned to the Sanqing Hall.

"Xuanqiong".

After Li Qing returned, Laozi spoke, and his two longevity eyebrows moved without any wind.

"Master Uncle."

Li Qing quickly stood up and bowed respectfully to Laozi.

Laozi nodded slightly, reached into his sleeve and took out a purple-gold gourd, uncorked it and poured out a pill.

The pill was no bigger than a longan, golden in color, with nine pill patterns flowing across its surface.

As soon as the elixir was taken out of the gourd, a unique fragrance filled the air. Those who smelled it felt refreshed and invigorated, and all the disciples felt their internal magical power become more active.

"Nine-Turn Golden Elixir"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable's gaze sharpened, recognizing the origin of this elixir.

This elixir uses the formation, existence, decay, and emptiness of a world as its guide, and the divine water of the three lights as its medium. It is refined nine times in the Eight Trigrams Furnace with both civil and military fire, and each cycle consumes countless amounts of energy.

A single Nine-Turn Golden Elixir allows mortals to entrust their true spirit to the elixir and achieve a different kind of Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Even Lao Tzu, a sage, didn't have many of them.

Even without the Celestial Venerable Yuanshi saying so, Li Qing could tell that this pill was precious. After a little more thought, he realized that it was the Nine-Turn Golden Pill, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Laozi flicked his finger, and the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir transformed into a golden light, landing directly in front of Li Qing.

"I have witnessed everything you have done, and I hereby bestow this Nine-Turn Golden Elixir upon you. This elixir is not for you to swallow, but rather to observe the Dao contained within it, so that you may break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm as soon as possible."

Seeing that the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir was indeed bestowed upon Li Qing, the disciples of the Chan and Jie sects, though envious, were all convinced of its merit. Those who were close to Li Qing were even happier for him.

Li Qing received the Nine-Turn Golden Pill with both hands, feeling as if he were holding a piece of warm jade or a ball of flame in his palms.

The medicinal power contained within the pill is as vast as the sea, yet it is sealed layer by layer by nine pill patterns, preventing any leakage.

"Thank you very much, Master Uncle, for bestowing the elixir."

Li Qing knelt down and respectfully kowtowed three times.

Laozi stroked his beard and said, "You don't need to thank me. Although the three teachings are separate, the Xuanmen (Taoist school) is one. You have brought honor to the Xuanmen today, and this elixir is what you deserve."

Upon hearing this, the disciples of the Chan Sect all looked somewhat uncomfortable.

Guang Chengzi blushed slightly and lowered his head without saying a word.

As the senior disciple of the Chan Sect, he was taken away by Maitreya with a golden gong. If it weren't for Li Qing's intervention, the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect would have lost all face today.

"Xuanqiong".

The Master of the Heavens spoke, "Your grandmaster has bestowed upon you the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir, a tremendous opportunity. Accept it well. Do not disappoint your grandmaster's expectations; comprehend it as soon as possible and attain the Great Luo Realm!"

"This disciple will certainly live up to the expectations of Master and Senior Uncle, and attain the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm as soon as possible!"
