Great Dao Divine Script

The Chan Sect had gained another supreme treasure, and Yuanshi Tianzun was overjoyed.

Meng Chen already possessed the God-Slaying Spear and the Wu Ji Apricot Yellow Banner. He had means of attack and defense alike, and now that he had obtained a divine weapon like the Myriad Dragon Whip, no one of his generation could contend with him anymore.

Sage Jieyin and Sage Zhunti felt sour inside, believing Heaven was unfair. Why did all the good things fall into the hands of the Three Pure Ones?

Just then, the void trembled, and Treasure Springs erupted once more.

Whooo!

Magic Treasures filled the sky—sabers, spears, swords, halberds, pots, bowls, ladles... Countless treasures carrying a primordial aura rained down in a torrential flood.

These Magic Treasures with primordial auras were equivalent to magical artifacts among acquired treasures. Lacking the indestructible primordial spiritual light, they could only be nurtured into primordial Magic Treasures and could not become Innate Spiritual Treasures.

The miscellaneous treasures upon Sage Zhunti's golden body—prayer beads, wooden fish, golden hooks, silver hooks, divine pestles, agates, and the like—were primordial Magic Treasures.

The gap between primordial Magic Treasures and Innate Spiritual Treasures was as vast as that between beings with Innate Dao Bodies and Primordial Saints.

Even so, when Heaven and Earth nurtured primordial Magic Treasures, they granted them special functions. These functions could be offensive, defensive, or supportive.

With a duang, a golden treasure basin appeared in Daoist Duobao's hands. Spiritual light shimmered over it, Dao charm rose from it, and it was actually a mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Amid the countless primordial Magic Treasures, Daoist Duobao had struck it big!

Daoist Duobao held the basin as though he had Parkinson's, both hands trembling without end.

It had not been easy! Daoist Duobao had finally turned things around!

"Hahaha, not bad! It seems the Disciples of Intercepting Teaching are blessed as well!"

Master Tongtian was not as reserved as Yuanshi Tianzun. Seeing Daoist Duobao obtain such an opportunity, he laughed heartily. He had already seen through the basin's function. It was called the Treasure Gathering Basin, and it could collect Magic Treasures from all directions.

Sure enough, after Daoist Duobao obtained the Treasure Gathering Basin, most of the treasures erupting from Treasure Springs changed direction and flew toward him.

The Western Church disciples could only sigh helplessly at the sight.

What the West lacked most were primordial Magic Treasures. They had finally been given a chance to obtain more, only for Daoist Duobao to snatch them away.

After obtaining the Innate Spirit Pill and the Myriad Dragon Whip, Meng Chen had little need for Magic Treasures. Still, one particularly unusual treasure caught his attention.

It was a small dark-green bottle. Its mouth stood open, constantly drawing in the essences of Sunlight, Moonlight, and starlight, condensing them into drops of Sunlight Water, Moonlight Water, and Starlight Water.

He tentatively poured magical power into the small dark-green bottle, and it absorbed Sunlight, Moonlight, and starlight even faster.

"Three Lights Divine Water Bottle. Good stuff. My Undying Tree is growing too slowly. With this Three Lights Divine Water Bottle, its growth rate should increase considerably."

This time, aside from Yuanshi Tianzun, no Sage noticed Meng Chen's actions. Daoist Duobao was simply too dazzling; his radiance concealed Meng Chen's movements.

Yuanshi Tianzun felt quite pleased that Meng Chen had not obtained the Treasure Gathering Basin.

If every benefit went to the Chan Sect, the relationship between the Intercepting Teaching and the Chan Sect would surely suffer. Once the Disciples of Intercepting Teaching developed jealousy toward the Chan Sect disciples, the two teachings would sooner or later fall out.

As for the Teaching of Humanity, it still needed the Chan Sect and Intercepting Teaching to help it! The Teaching of Humanity had only Grand Master Xuandu. Without the other two teachings lending a hand, it could accomplish nothing.

There was no helping it. The three brothers were bound together by the same breath—if he did not spoil his own elder brother, who would?

"Eh, I have an Innate Spiritual Treasure! I have an Innate Spiritual Treasure too!"

Suddenly, a cheer rang out from Sacred Spring Peak, filled with joy and disbelief.

"Whose disciple is that?"

Yuanshi Tianzun had been focused on Meng Chen. Hearing that somewhat familiar voice, he immediately sensed trouble. He looked toward the source of the cheer and saw Yellow Dragon True Man clutching a horn-shaped Innate Spiritual Treasure, grinning foolishly to himself.

So he was one of mine!

Seeing that this attention-seeker really was a Chan Sect disciple, Yuanshi Tianzun could not help rubbing his forehead with a sigh. It was only an Innate Spiritual Treasure. Could the Acquired Spiritual Treasures forged by Yuanshi Tianzun possibly be inferior to Innate Spiritual Treasures?

Yuanshi Tianzun considered Yellow Dragon True Man an attention-seeker, yet Sage Zhunti regarded Yellow Dragon True Man as a treasure.

Was he not a treasure? Yellow Dragon True Man might have seemed unremarkable, but a low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure had acknowledged him as its master.

A fool truly had a fool's fortune!

The Chan Sect and Intercepting Teaching had each obtained an Innate Spiritual Treasure, while the Teaching of Humanity and Western Church were miserable by comparison.

The Teaching of Humanity had only one disciple to begin with, and Grand Master Xuandu's fortune could not compare to those freaks Meng Chen and Duo Bao. By now, he had obtained only three primordial Magic Treasures: the Cooling Pearl, Wind-Sending Pearl, and Warm Sun Pearl.

Do not be fooled by their pleasant names. They had only one function: regulating the climate of a daoist temple, keeping it warm in winter and cool in summer.

The Western Church had many disciples, but numbers were useless. They had not obtained even a single Innate Spiritual Treasure.

"Alas, are we of the Western Church truly fated to have no connection with Innate Spiritual Treasures?"

A shadow fell over the hearts of some Western Church disciples. Though they held primordial Magic Treasures, they could not bring themselves to rejoice.

The Three Pure Ones had already shown immense mercy by allowing Western Church disciples to come here and seek opportunities. Yet they were not content and still coveted more, hoping to obtain Innate Spiritual Treasures. Their greed was plain to see.

But Treasure Springs could not hear the Western Church disciples' inner thoughts. As three hundred and sixty-five rivers flowed forth from Treasure Springs, its final eruption began.

Whooo! Whooo!

The divine objects erupting this time were even more precious. They were all Great Dao Divine Scripts formed when Heaven and Earth first opened. Each divine script was equivalent to a Great Dao scripture, Pangu's exposition of the myriad Daos of the heavens.

"Yin," "Yang," "Metal," "Wood," "Water," "Fire," "Earth," "Time," "Space," "Power," "Karma," "Wealth," "Beauty"...

Divine scripts filled the sky. Every word brimmed with might, and even Meng Chen felt that he was no match for them. Any one of those divine scripts falling upon him could crush him to death.

"Great Dao Divine Scripts—they are actually Great Dao Divine Scripts? Master once said that the Pangu's Heaven-Opening Scripture within the Creation Jade Plate was recorded using Great Dao Divine Scripts. Master also comprehended the Three Corpses Severing Technique through Pangu's Heaven-Opening Scripture. These juniors actually have such fortune?"

Master Tongtian was utterly shaken upon seeing so many Great Dao Divine Scripts appear in the world.

The two from the West were already restless, wishing they could snatch every one of those Great Dao Divine Scripts and take them home. If the Western Church obtained all these Great Dao Divine Scripts, its rise to prosperity would be unstoppable.

Only Yuanshi Tianzun felt a trace of worry rise within him. He looked up into the depths of the clouds, seeing through the void as though gazing directly at the Heavenly Dao.

"Could these disciples have some special mission? The three hundred and sixty-five spring eyes correspond to the three hundred and sixty-five principal stars of the cosmos. The Heavenly Dao would not grant such opportunities to these disciples without reason."
