The Primordial Era: Starting with Becoming a Disciple of the Queen Mother of the West

Chapter 124 Purple Gold Exquisite

Having received the spiritual root, Xuan Yao landed on Phoenix and Unicorn Immortal Continent. Looking around, his heart stirred slightly.

The spiritual energy in the depths of this continent is even more abundant, almost frightening.

Looking around, the mountains, rivers, grass and trees are all imbued with the blessings of nature, and even the soil underfoot is warm and full of life, as if a handful could condense into a few drops of spiritual liquid.

In the mountains and fields, spiritual roots can be seen everywhere, and exotic flowers and rare herbs grow in abundance, making them almost indistinguishable from ordinary wild grasses.

Immortal vines hang from the cliff face, their light subtly shimmering.

Auspicious beasts once again appeared in the forest, serene and content.

Xuan Yao then saw several white deer with single antlers drinking water by the stream. Upon seeing the outsiders, they were not afraid at all. Instead, they craned their necks to look around, their eyes clear and bright, without any vulgarity.

He took a deep breath and felt the pure energy enter his body, flowing slowly through his limbs and bones, even making the Taiyi Five Qi within him more active.

Upon seeing this scene, Xuan Yao couldn't help but think of his family's Qingheishan Mountain, which he had painstakingly cultivated for many years.

To be honest, under his management, Qingheishan Mountain has already begun to resemble a blessed land of the Xuanmen sect.

Ultimately, it is nothing more than a branch of the outer periphery of the Western Kunlun Mountains.

The spiritual energy in the mountains mostly needs to be adjusted through the Heavenly Gang Life-Giving Array and the Lesser Five Elements Array.

The spiritual soil that nourishes the roots and strengthens the body is slowly formed by borrowing the power of the innate spiritual soil.

The spiritual roots covering the mountain were all collected by him over the years from various places in the primordial world, and then transplanted and settled there.

The effort and dedication involved are beyond what outsiders can understand.

But the Phoenix and Unicorn Immortal Continent before us presents a completely different scene.

This continent was formed from fragments of chaos, and its innate foundation is extraordinary.

In the beginning of time, when the world was created, chaos broke apart, and fragments fell overseas. Over countless years, these fragments evolved into this celestial paradise.

Although it has some connection to the primordial world, it is not deep, and the causal relationship is extremely shallow.

In other words, this place is independent, unlike ordinary blessed lands that are firmly tied to the primordial destiny.

Thinking of this, a burning thought arose in Xuan Yao's heart.

If one could refine the entire Immortal Continent and take it over as one's own cultivation ground, then both the cultivation ground and the future accumulation of resources would far surpass Qingheishan by a hundred times.

More importantly, this continent is not deeply connected to the primordial world.

If a great calamity were to befall the world in the future, it is not impossible to seal off the continent and guard a peaceful place, avoiding the chaos and turmoil of the outside world.

Such an opportunity, let alone him, even a Great Immortal would find it hard not to be tempted.

The moment the thought crossed his mind, Xuan Yao tensed up and forcefully suppressed it. Within his spiritual platform, the pure energy of virtue flowed slowly, and in a short while, the distracting thoughts dissipated completely.

He chuckled to himself, thinking to himself that it was indeed the moment of opportunity that made people most easily distracted.

With his current cultivation level at the early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal, it is wishful thinking for him to try to refine an ancient immortal continent formed from fragments of chaos.

Let alone taking it away, even attempting to shake the earth's veins in the slightest would likely invite immediate backlash, resulting in the annihilation of both body and soul.

Not to mention, the emergence of Phoenix Unicorn Immortal Continent caused quite a stir.

The auspicious golden light that had soared into the sky earlier had illuminated almost half of the East China Sea.

Such an unusual phenomenon could not possibly have escaped the notice of all parties.

Before long, the patrolling immortal army of Zifu Continent, the senior experts of the Four Seas Dragon Palace, and even the powerful figures under the Eastern King Duke will mostly come following the light.

There is not much time left for him.

Once Xuan Yao made up his mind, he no longer looked at the rare spiritual roots that were deeply rooted in the earth's veins in the mountains and fields.

Those things are good, but they can't be taken away in a short time.

If the time is wasted on a few spiritual herbs and medicines, it will be difficult to extricate oneself once the powerful figures from all sides arrive.

The most important thing right now is to seize the opportunity that can truly be taken away before everyone arrives.

With a thought, he channeled his Taiyi magic power into his eyes, fully activating his Purple Mansion Dharma Eye.

A faint golden light emanated from his eyes, piercing through layers of spiritual mist as he surveyed the depths of the Immortal Continent.

In a short while, his light fell upon the strange peak in the center of the Immortal Continent.

The mountain peaks possessed extraordinary grandeur; from a distance, they resembled a phoenix and a qilin standing side by side, with the primordial fortune of the heavens seemingly converging upon them.

In such places, if a great treasure is conceived, it is most likely hidden within.

Xuan Yao focused his mind and carefully observed, his divine eye piercing through layers of auspicious energy, finally spotting a hidden grotto on the side of the phoenix-shaped mountain peak.

The cave entrance was obscured by several ancient vines. If it weren't for his ability to observe the flow of energy, an ordinary person would probably not notice it even if they walked right past.

More importantly, deep within that grotto, a glimmer of precious light remained hidden.

That precious light was different from ordinary spiritual treasures. It did not show any ostentatious sharpness, but was instead upright and peaceful, deep and heavy, with a faint intention to suppress all things.

Upon seeing this, Xuan Yao was overjoyed. With a swift movement, he transformed into a wisp of breeze and soared upwards along the mountainside. In the blink of an eye, he arrived before the grotto.

He brushed aside the ancient vines and stepped inside.

The cave was not dark.

Large pieces of spiritual jade grew on the four walls, emitting a soft white light that illuminated the entire grotto clearly.

Looking further in, at the deepest part, there is a natural white jade platform, on which sits a magnificent nine-story pagoda.

The tower was only about a foot tall, and its entire body was purple-gold, crystal clear, as if it were made of purple-gold glass.

The nine-story pagoda is clearly divided into layers, each engraved with intricate and profound innate Dao patterns.

Beneath the eaves of the tower hangs a small wind chime, also in a purple-gold color, exquisitely crafted.

A gentle breeze occasionally wafted through the cave, causing the wind chimes to sway softly. Though they made no sound, a clear and melodious Daoist voice drifted out from Xuan Yao's sea of ​​consciousness.

That one sound was enough to clear his mind.

The eagerness that had arisen earlier because of Phoenix Unicorn Immortal Continent, along with that trace of greed, was mostly washed away by this sound.

His mind immediately became clear and serene, and even the Taiyi Dao Fruit seemed to become more stable.

Xuan Yao slowly stepped forward, and the light fell on the pagoda, becoming difficult to move away.

But what truly moved him was more than that.

Within the radiant light of this pagoda, there is clearly a profound meaning of suppressing destiny.

Its profound meaning is as deep as an abyss and as steady as a mountain. Just one glance gives one a sense of inexplicable certainty, as if once this tower is suspended above one's head, it can suppress one's destiny and prevent external calamities from easily invading one's body.

This is precisely the tool he lacks most right now.

Although Xuan Yao possesses the Heart-Soothing Scepter, a treasure that has been with him for many years, it has always been able to calm the mind and protect the spirit.

Back when he was still at the Xuanxian and Jinxian realms, this treasure was of great help.

But now that he has entered the Taiyi realm, the causes and effects he encounters and the opponents he faces are incomparable to those of the past.

While the Heart-Soothing Jade still has its uses, it ultimately falls short at the Taiyi level.

Especially when he uses his protective divine power or activates the Falling Treasure Coin, the backlash becomes even more pronounced.

At such times, calming the mind and relieving turmoil can only provide a slight buffer, and it is difficult to completely quell the turmoil in one's spirit.

The purple-gold exquisite pagoda before us, judging solely from the innate Daoist charm it exudes, is clearly no ordinary treasure.

The forty-three innate restrictions are perfectly integrated and self-contained, and their high quality clearly places them among the top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

If one can refine it, it can not only guard the spiritual platform and calm the primordial spirit, but also suppress one's own fortune.

In this way, he made up for a very important shortcoming in his path of protection.

Thinking of this, Xuan Yao slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and carefully probed a wisp of Taiyi divine sense into the tower.

As soon as one's consciousness entered, one felt that it was vast and boundless, like entering a boundless ocean.

The tower is filled with layers of restrictions, a natural and mysterious formation. Although no one refines it, it possesses the spirituality of an innate treasure.

If ordinary magical power were to forcibly intrude, it would likely trigger a backlash immediately.

However, when the gentle and upright Qi of virtue within Xuan Yao's body spread through his divine sense, the pagoda did not show any sign of rejection.

The tower's body shimmered with a subtle purple-gold light, appearing somewhat gentler. It felt as if it had encountered a compatible energy, subtly creating a sense of intimacy.

Xuan Yao immediately understood.

This pagoda is primarily for suppression and stability, which aligns well with the principle of moderation and peace on the Fude Avenue.

Therefore, once he got his hands on it, he avoided a lot of trouble.

However, he also knew that now was definitely not the time to sit down and carefully refine it.

The strange phenomena outside haven't subsided, and powerful figures from all sides could arrive on the island at any time. Although this place contains great treasures, it's not a place to stay for long.

Once the thought was made up, Xuan Yao immediately waved his sleeve, using the pure energy of virtue to create a soft light screen, gently lifting the purple-gold exquisite pagoda.

The pagoda trembled slightly, then transformed into a stream of purple-gold light, which entered his dantian.

After the tower body entered the body, it was suspended above the Taiyi Five Qi, slowly rotating and hanging down strands of purple-gold light.

Xuan Yao immediately circulated the purest and most precious Qi of virtue within his body to nourish it, waiting until he returned to Qinghei Mountain before going into seclusion to refine it.
