Cute Baby's Loot-Splitting Convention! Playing Marbles with Sun God Pearls?

The lingering aroma of roasted meat from the Zixiao Palace still lingers in the air, while the Kunlun Mountain "Parenting Trip Group" has already embarked on its journey home.

They came as pilgrims, but returned as... nouveau riche tycoons laden with spoils.

The Tongtian Jiaozhu walked at the front, holding Lin Shen, whose little belly was round from eating, in his arms, and carrying a large, gleaming sack in his other hand.

The sack, which was originally his Daoist robe, was now stuffed full, filled with various Innate Spiritual Treasure he had obtained from the three thousand powerful figures.

As he walked, the Tongtian Jiaozhu peered into the sack, letting out a suppressed, silly chuckle.

"We've struck it rich! We've really struck it rich this time!"

He spammed the chat in the exclusive chat group for high-ranking members of Kunlun Mountain: "Big Brother! Second Brother! Nuwa! Did you see that? These bastards say no, but their actions speak louder than words!"

"That foolish emperor of the demon race took three Sun God Pearl and traded them for three pieces of octopus scraps from me. He left looking like he'd gotten a steal!"

"The Blood Sea Minghe acted all high and mighty, but in the end, didn't they obediently exchange the lotus seeds of the Twelve-Grade Karmic Fire Red Lotus for meat?"

The more Tongtian Jiaozhu spoke, the more pleased he became, feeling that he had found New Dao to wealth and prosperity.

"Third brother, mind your manners!" The icy voice of the Yuanshi Tianzun rang out in his divine sense. "Setting up a stall in Sage ground, what kind of decorum is this! You've utterly disgraced the Pangu's True Lineage!"

Although he said that, he secretly probed the sack in Tongtian with his divine sense and glanced at the dazzling array of treasures.

He thought to himself: This deal... seems pretty good.

"Second Brother, what do you know!" the Tongtian Jiaozhu retorted righteously, "Who am I doing this for? Isn't it all for our Beloved Disciple!"

He looked down at Lin Shen, who was smacking his lips in his arms, savoring the aroma of roasted meat, and his voice became self-righteous. "My apprentice wants to build amusement parks and grand palaces in the future. Which of these won't consume rare and precious materials?"

"I call this accumulating initial capital for my apprentice's happy childhood in advance! This is called foresight! This is called fatherly love as solid as a mountain! You know nothing!"

The Yuanshi Tianzun was speechless for a long time after being choked by this set of fallacies and heresies.

Taiqing Laozi stroked his beard and smiled, calmly smoothing things over with his divine sense. "Alright, although Third Brother's actions were somewhat improper, his intentions were good. Now that the treasures have been exchanged back, they all belong to Lin Shen. Let's leave it at that."

Upon hearing this, both Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu fell silent.

That's right, regardless of the process, the result is good.

These treasures were ultimately given to their most beloved little apprentice.

Hongjun Daozu followed behind, watching the three lively fellow disciples exchange thoughts, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

He now understands that in the Kunlun Mountain, anything related to Lin Shen is anything but serious.

The group soon returned to the Immortal Qi Kunlun Mountain.

As soon as he landed, the Tongtian Jiaozhu couldn't wait to untie the large sack and pour out all the treasures inside.

In an instant, the sacred ground in front of the Yuxu Palace was filled with dazzling light and countless rays of radiance.

Various Innate Spiritual Treasure, rare and precious irons, and top-grade spiritual roots were piled up into a small mountain.

Each one of these items would be enough to make the powerful beings of the Primordial World fight tooth and nail for it.

But now, they're like a pile of worthless trash, carelessly dumped on the ground.

Daoist Duobao, who was following at the very back and had been completely bewildered the whole time, felt his legs go weak when he saw what was happening before him.

My God!

Isn't that the Companion Spiritual Treasure Dragon Head Cane of the Dong Wang Gong?

Isn't that the Xi Wangmu's Pure Water Bowl?

And that... isn't that a fragment of the Earth Book that accompanied the Great Immortal Zhen Yuanzi?

How... how are all these legendary treasures here?

And he was dumped on the ground like trash by his master?

Duobao felt that his Dao Heart, which had been shattered once at the Zixiao Palace, had now been ground into powder again upon returning to Kunlun Mountain.

His voice trembled as he asked, "Master... Master, these are all...?"

"These are all my disciple's toys!" The Tongtian Jiaozhu, as if showing off a treasure, pulled Lin Shen, pointed to the mountain of treasures, and said with boundless pride, "My Beloved Disciple! Look! All of these will be yours from now on!"

"Play whichever one you like! If you break it, your Third Master will go and replace it for you!"

Lin Shen was feeling sleepy after eating and drinking his fill.

Upon seeing this sparkling, glittering "toy mountain" in front of me, all my sleepiness vanished instantly.

Wow! So many... sparkly ones!

He took short strides and ran over with a "thump-thump-thump" sound.

Then, like a little mouse that has wandered into a rice granary, it plunges headfirst into the pile of treasures.

He first picked up the Dragon Head Staff, thinking that since it was long, it would be good as a small stick for tapping and striking.

So he raised his Dragon Head Staff and struck a piece of colorful divine iron beside him with a "bang".

That divine iron is a top-tier material for refining acquired treasures; it is incredibly hard.

The Dragon Head Staff struck the object, producing a crisp, mournful sound, and a tiny crack appeared on it.

Yuanshi Tianzun's eyelids twitched.

What a spendthrift! This is material that can be used to forge magical treasures!

The Daoist Duobao watched from the side, his heart pounding.

That's the legendary Chaos Divine Iron!

So he's just being treated like a toy by his junior brother?

Lin Shen knocked twice, then decided it wasn't fun.

He picked up the Pure Water Bowl again and found that there was still half a bowl of crystal-clear Three Lights Divine Water inside.

Curious, he dipped his finger in the mixture, then put it in his mouth and licked it.

"Hmm, it has no taste."

He pouted, thinking that this water wasn't even as good as Sister Nuwa's "Creation Divine Milk".

So he picked up the alms bowl and, with a splash, poured all the Three Lights Divine Water that could revive the dead and heal the wounded—onto the ground, using it to play with the mud.

Taiqing Laozi's beard stood on end.

What a waste! If this water were used for alchemy, how many Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir could be made!

Daoist Duobao dared not look anymore.

He felt that if he continued watching, his Dao Heart would completely collapse.

That's the Three Lights Divine Water!

The most divine water in Primordial World primordial world!

Was it just dumped and mixed with mud like that?

Lin Shen rummaged through the pile of treasures, and finally, his gaze was drawn to a bead that was entirely fiery red and radiated boundless light and heat.

It was the Sun God Pearl that Di Jun had obtained in exchange.

"This... is so bright! And so warm!"

Lin Shen hugged the Sun God Pearl tightly to his chest.

He felt the bead warm and cozy in his arms, like a little sun, and it was incredibly comforting.

It's much more fun than those other cold, impersonal magical artifacts.

Holding the Sun God Pearl, he pulled out another pearl from the pile of treasures—a completely black pearl that radiated the power of Yin.

Then, he placed the two beads on the ground and let them collide with each other like marbles.

"Bang bang bang!"

When the Sun God Pearl and the Taiyin Divine Pearl collided, one being yin and the other yang, one cold and the other hot, a wondrous balance was created.

The two forces canceled each other out, yet attracted each other, spinning endlessly in front of him.

Even more miraculously, the collision of the two beads subtly evolved the Daoist principles of Tai Chi and Yin Yang.

Although it was only a faint trace of Daoist energy, those present were all top-tier experts, so they could naturally sense its profound mystery.

"This... this is..." Daoist Duobao's eyes widened.

Hongjun Daozu and Nuwa exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

This little guy is truly a born Dao seed.

"This is fun! This is fun!"

Lin Shen clapped his hands happily, completely unaware of the profound Daoist magic he had unintentionally unleashed.

Seeing this, the Tongtian Jiaozhu winked smugly at his two elder brothers, his expression seeming to say: See? The treasure I got back is the one my disciple likes the most!

Yuanshi Tianzun and Taiqing Laozi could only shake their heads helplessly.

Never mind, never mind, as long as my disciple is happy.

Amidst this peaceful (and extravagant) atmosphere, everyone returned to their respective Dao Palace to digest what they had gained from listening to the Dao at the Zixiao Palace.

Lin Shen, holding his "Yin Yang Marbles," returned to his room contentedly, ready to take a nap.

Unbeknownst to him, his new talent, "Profound Fortune," acquired through the system upgrade, had already been quietly activated without his knowledge.

Moreover, the scale of this operation will be unprecedented.

A treasure hunt adventure that will sweep across the entire Kunlun Mountain and leave all the top tycoons questioning their existence is about to begin.
