Primordial Chaos: I, the Four Pure Ones of the Primordial Beginning, beg the Heavenly Dao to step do

Chapter 5: The Qilin Treasure Vault! A Primordial Treasure! The Mysterious Mirror of Cause and Effect!

"Third Brother, let's begin."

Divine patterns appeared in Tai Chu's eyes, and with a light tap of his hand, the defensive array covering the treasure vault fully materialized.

"Fourth brother, don't worry."

Tongtian gazed at the ever-changing patterns on the defensive array, his face filled with confidence and pride.

"These brainless idiots probably never imagined that outsiders would come and raid their own clan's treasure trove."

"The defensive array you set up might be a bit troublesome for those who don't understand array formations, but it's just for show for me."

As he spoke, Tongtian soared into the air, his single hand constantly tracing and pointing at the nodes of the formation.

"Not only are there numerous loopholes between the array nodes, but even the most basic array patterns are more alarming than effective at trapping and killing."

"It's not very practical, and it's not even likely to cause me any trouble."

The original view was the same.

The divine runes of laws are superior to array runes, and are the manifestation of the origin of heaven and earth.

In his view, the outer array of the Qilin Treasure Vault was a crudely made empty shell, posing no threat whatsoever.

"Done."

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn passes in the blink of an eye.

With a light clap of Tongtian's hands, Taishang and Yuanshi arrived at the gate of the treasure vault.

"I can't wait to see just how many wonderful things the Father God has left behind."

With a murmur of excitement, Tai Chu led the four of them in single file.

In the blink of an eye, the world opened up before us!

The treasure vault, which originally occupied only a thousand feet of land, instantly transformed into an infinite space that stretched endlessly and was over ten thousand feet high.

Divine medicines and immortal herbs, rare and precious iron, are all measured in mountains thousands of feet high, and acquired spiritual treasures are found everywhere.

Perhaps in the eyes of the Qilin clan, those who have not reached the Innate Realm are not even qualified to be placed on the shelf, and are casually discarded on the ground and piled up in corners.

The dust covering it was enough to show that after it entered the treasure vault, it was never moved or used.

"Big brother, second brother, third brother, what are you all standing there for?"

"Please!"

Tai Chu looked at the three people whose eyes were shining brightly as they scanned the items displayed in the treasure vault. He smiled slightly, bowed and waved like a waiter, extending an invitation.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony."

Tongtian was the most unruly, able to absorb everything within his sleeves without caring what it contained.

In short, it boils down to one sentence!

Mine! Mine! All mine!

"Fourth brother is very thoughtful."

Yuanshi was relatively restrained and didn't take everything.

They specifically seek out materials for refining weapons, acquired spiritual treasures that can be recycled, and to see if there are any suitable weapons or furnaces.

"good."

After the initial excitement, Taishang's mood had calmed down.

Although his eyes still held joy, his expression had returned to its original kindness.

He used his hidden power to finish the job, neither competing nor grabbing, taking whatever he could get.

Tai Chu then headed straight for the place where the innate treasures were hidden.

The Qilin clan occupied Buzhou Mountain and plundered most of the overlords of the primordial wilderness.

Any innate treasure that can enter here should be comparable to magic treasures such as the Twenty-Four Sea-Stabilizing Pearls or the Nine Heavens Breath Soil, right?

However, fantasies are often grand, while reality is often harsh.

Upon entering the area where the innate treasures were kept, one was met with vast stretches of empty space, with only shelves displaying the names of the treasures.

Tai Chu was completely dumbfounded.

"Depend on!"

"What's going on?"

"Where did all my treasures go?"

"Did the First Qilin eat them all?"

"Or was it Rahu or Hongjun who beat them to it and looted the treasure trove clean?"

An endless stream of doubts welled up in Tai Chu's mind, leaving him stunned in place for a long time, unable to come to his senses.

This is illogical. Even if the Qilin clan were poor, their main treasure vault wouldn't just be filled with such trash.

Could there be a hidden space here?

Immediately, divine patterns appeared in Tai Chu's eyes, constantly scanning the surrounding void, trying to find the true location of the treasure vault.

However, his face quickly showed deep disappointment.

He has inspected all the places.

However, they found nothing unusual.

Clearly, he was in the real treasure trove, a hidden space that the Qilin clan had not set up or concealed.

"Fourth brother, you look a little pale."

Tongtian frantically searched the area of ​​innate treasures, but seeing that Taichu neither looted nor turned to leave, he asked with a puzzled look what had happened.

"Third Brother, I'm fine."

Tai Chu let out a deep breath and shook his head helplessly, explaining the reason.

"The treasure trove of the Qilin clan only contains about a hundred high-grade innate spiritual treasures and a thousand or eight hundred mid-grade and low-grade spiritual treasures."

"I'm so disappointed that there isn't even a single innate treasure."

Tongtian listened to the reason for Taichu's stunned silence, his eyes filled with surprise and astonishment.

His lips twitched unconsciously, and he opened his mouth several times, but he didn't know what words to use to express his current thoughts.

Is Fourth Brother getting cocky?

How could someone utter such shocking words so calmly?

Every living being in the entire prehistoric world who manages to obtain even one innate spiritual treasure is an extremely proud being.

If someone with the cultivation level of a Great Luo obtains a supreme innate treasure, such as the Primordial Qilin, the Primordial Phoenix, or the Ancestral Dragon, they would have to carefully consider the gains and losses before attempting to seize it.

Your constant talk of innate treasures is truly embarrassing for your third brother; I don't know how to answer you...

Ultimately, having no other choice, Tongtian had to come up with a plausible reason in order to help Taichu see things more clearly.

"Well, fourth brother, the Qilin clan isn't a Pixiu, how could it only take in and not give out?"

"Especially now that we're in the midst of a three-race war, if a treasure has a suitable owner, we can just take it and use it."

"Those placed here are basically either unwanted or difficult to manage."

"Don't worry, look again carefully."

"You might just discover a primordial spiritual treasure that the Qilin clan overlooked, but which is destined for you."

In the beginning, there was nothing that could be done but accept reality.

"Third Brother, you go ahead and do your work. I'll look for it again."

After saying that, he turned around and entered the area where innate treasures were kept, and began to look for a suitable magic weapon.

Tai Sui Whip, Dragon Roar Flute, Fate-Pointing Knife, Heavenly Flower Falling Flag, Primordial Chaos Diagram, Thunderclap Zither, Reincarnation Mirror, Hidden Immortal Diagram, Ruyi Pouch, Eight Desolations Pagoda, Heaven-Swallowing Cover, Rainbow-Piercing Rope, Spirit-Shattering Cone...

Almost all of them are from the Hongjun Treasure Distribution Cliff.

It seems that after the three races weakened, that old bastard Deng didn't stay idle either, taking the opportunity to loot a lot of treasures.

Otherwise, there wouldn't have been so many treasures distributed to the three thousand mortals as a way to settle remaining karmic debts and appease people's hearts.

"What is this?"

Just as Tai Chu was exploring the depths of the treasure vault, a shelf, three zhang high and one zhang wide, exuding profound Daoist charm and emanating the green aura of Yi wood, appeared.

A hazy gray mirror hung inside, showing no supernatural features whatsoever, and there were no markings around it either.

"Since the Qilin clan doesn't know what this is."

"Why would it be placed in the area of ​​innate treasures?"

With a slight furrow of his brow, Tai Chu picked up the treasure mirror, his divine runes converging in his eyes as he attempted to decipher the mysteries hidden within.

However, you won't believe it until you see it!

At first, there was nothing unusual about the outside of the mirror.

However, as the divine runes of law permeated the area, some profound mysteries of cause and effect gradually emerged within it!

"Does a divine object conceal itself?"

"Then let me see just how precious you are."

As he murmured softly, the divine patterns of laws in Tai Chu's eyes gradually dimmed, replaced by divine patterns of the Great Dao. Endless Dao charm illuminated the heavens, and the illusions of countless worlds returned to his eyes!

Under its watchful gaze, the precious mirror gradually revealed its brilliance.

The mysteries of cause and effect converged in an instant, and four divine runes of the Great Dao appeared.

The unremarkable, gray mirror suddenly shone with an dazzling brilliance.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The world before Taichu's eyes instantly underwent countless changes; the past, present, and future seemed to have lost all their mysteries.

Thousands of colorful black threads crisscross the heavens and earth, permeating time and space. Upon closer inspection, countless figures move and evolve within them!

"Such a treasure has been left to gather dust on a shelf."

"The First Qilin is truly utterly foolish, guarding a mountain of treasures without even realizing it..."

The moment the divine runes of the Great Dao manifested, Tai Chu instantly recognized their meaning.

The Mysterious Mirror of Cause and Effect.

Among the three thousand Great Dao Demon Gods, the companion treasure of the Ten Supreme Demon Gods, the Karma Demon God, has the same status as the Chaos Pearl.

He was born with two thousand two hundred and forty chaotic restrictions.

It can peer into the cause-and-effect relationship, shift cause and effect, sever cause and effect, and even reverse the effect into the cause, making the debtor into the supreme treasure of the debtor!

Although it was shattered by Pangu's axe during the creation war and its grade dropped to that of a supreme innate treasure, it still possessed forty-nine innate restrictions.

It can be described as the finest among innate treasures!

What surprised him even more was that the Dao of Cause and Effect contained within it was not lost despite the damage.

It was so complete that even he found it hard to believe!

"Thankfully, the divine object concealed itself, requiring the use of the Great Dao Divine Patterns and the Origin of Heaven and Earth to decipher it, allowing the Mysterious Mirror of Cause and Effect to shine once more."

"Otherwise, if the First Qilin were to use it, the Great Tribulation of the Three Races would likely be difficult to cause any further disturbances."

"Zu Long, Yuan Feng will definitely not be his match."

It should be understood that cause and effect are the fundamental laws that permeate the primordial world, and even the Heavenly Dao cannot ignore or escape them.

If the Primordial Qilin had this treasure in its hands, the Great Tribulation of the Three Races would not even have a chance to unfold, as it would be perceived by the Qilin.

Hongjun and Luohou would not be able to take advantage of the situation; they would be killed instantly if they showed themselves, and there would be absolutely no unexpected situation.

If he is bold enough and has a deep enough grasp of the Dao of Cause and Effect, all opportunities in the world will belong to him alone.

Even the chance to become a saint, which is out of reach for countless people, is the path to the Great Dao: proving the Dao of Hunyuan, merging with the Dao and acting on behalf of Heaven.

They will all be at his disposal, to be chosen and manipulated at will!

"Fourth brother, what wonderful treasure have you found?"

"Why are you laughing so happily?"

The manifestation of divine power may have been instantaneous, but more than seven days had already passed in the outside world.

At this moment, only the Four Pure Ones stood in the treasure vault. Countless rare and precious materials had been taken into the possession of the three Supreme Ones, leaving not even a single immortal medicine or spiritual herb behind.

"Big brother, second brother, third brother, look what this is!"

The four individuals shared similar bloodline and inherited memories, and Taishang and the others also received some true teachings on the Dao of Talismans.

Although one cannot control the divine runes of the Great Dao, one can still glimpse the mysteries contained within them.

"This is actually the innate treasure of the God of Cause and Effect?"

"Fourth brother, you're lucky!"

Tongtian, his face beaming with excitement, offered his congratulations to Taichu.

"To possess such a divine object without realizing it is utterly foolish. It is only fitting that you, Fourth Brother, have obtained this treasure."

As Yuanshi lifted and stepped on him, Taishang's face was full of smiles, his eyes filled with surprise and satisfaction.

"Fourth brother, put this away carefully."

"Do not let outsiders know before you have sufficient strength."

"Don't worry, brother, I understand the pros and cons."

Tai Chu chuckled and nodded.

"This is the territory of the Qilin clan, where the Qi of the Gen soil is abundant, making it an excellent place to nurture the five elements within the heart."

"Why don't we take this opportunity to cultivate ourselves?"

"Hahaha...that's a really good idea."

Tongtian laughed and patted Taichu on the shoulder.

"Anyway, with the Qilin clan guarding the gate for us, we don't need to worry about outsiders disturbing us."

"Let me make some arrangements to isolate this space from the outside world."

"Anyone who tries to force their way in without permission will be made to experience what it's like to be rejected by heaven and earth and targeted in every way."

Yuanshi smiled slightly, agreeing with Taichu's idea.

"Fourth brother, if the First Qilin returns midway and discovers something amiss with the treasure vault, we must be prepared."

As soon as Tai Shang finished speaking, Tai Chu shook his head slightly and shook the Mysterious Mirror of Cause and Effect in his hand.

"Don't worry, brother. When I activated it with the Great Dao Divine Runes, I had already gained initial control over its divine power and glimpsed some of the future."

"The First Qilin is currently engaged in a bloody battle with the Ancestral Dragon and the Primordial Phoenix, and is now far away in the Xuanming Land of the North Sea."

"Even if we were to give up now and return, it would be absolutely impossible without a thousand years."

"good."

Upon hearing this, the Supreme Lord was no longer worried.

He turned and walked out of the treasure vault, then fed the two Great Luo Qilin some sleeping pills to ensure that even if they were killed, they would not wake up.

Only then did he feel at ease returning to the treasure vault, where he and the other two, Tai Chu, stood in four directions, absorbing the Qi of the Gen Earth contained within the earth.

A century has passed in the blink of an eye.

The four of them relentlessly devoured all the Qi of the Gen Earth contained in the treasure vault, and it would probably be impossible to restore it to its original state in less than ten thousand years.

"Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, all traces have been erased, and the cause and effect have been covered up by me using the Mystic Mirror."

"Although it's only a rudimentary grasp of the laws of cause and effect, it's enhanced by the Mystic Mirror."

"Based solely on the remaining traces of causal energy, unless the Primordial Qilin achieves the Great Luo Primordial Realm, it is impossible to deduce any information about us."

"Moreover, the calamity energy is still strong at this time, and the secrets of heaven are already chaotic. Even if he survives to the end, he will never know who raided his lair."

Seeing the immense power of the Heavenly Mirror of Cause and Effect, Tongtian's mind immediately stirred again.

"Fourth brother, since no one can detect our whereabouts, why don't we take this opportunity to visit the treasure vaults of the Dragon and Phoenix clans?"

Upon hearing this, both Yuanshi and Taishang were slightly shaken.

Such a risk-free and highly profitable business, without any obstacles, is truly irresistible.

"Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, I naturally also want to go and retrieve the relics of Father God."

"But both the Phoenix Clan's southern volcanic cluster and the Dragon Clan's East Sea Dragon Palace are too far from Mount Buzhou."

"At our current pace, it would take at least several thousand years to get there."

"By then, the First Qilin will have already discovered the anomaly of the treasure vault, and the Dragon and Phoenix clans will certainly send heavy troops to guard their respective treasure locations."

"If we want to launch another surprise attack, we can only wait until the war between the three races has fully broken out, so that we can take advantage of the chaos and reclaim the other legacies that belong to us."
