Holy Mother Wudang said, "If you trust your senior sister, give the magic treasure to Senior Disciple Brother. I will retrieve it later."

Bai Jin immediately nodded and said, "Of course I trust you, Senior Sister. You're like a real sister to me." His hand flashed, and a copper coin appeared. It was round on the outside and square on the inside, with wings. He handed it to Holy Mother Wudang and said, "It's this one."

Holy Mother Wudang's eyes filled with tenderness as she looked at Bai Jin. Magic treasures were especially important for cultivators. Her junior brother was giving away his magic treasure just because she asked. This showed that his trust in her was just as he said.

Holy Mother Wudang said no more. She took the Treasure Dropping Coin, stepped on a white cloud, and flew up. She reached mid-air and said, "Senior Disciple Brother, Junior Brother Bai Jin is grateful for your care and is giving you a magic treasure." A stream of light shot from her hand, passed through the area where flying daggers were dancing, and landed in front of Daoist Duobao.

Duobao bowed and grabbed the white light. Sensing a small, winged creature in his palm, he quickly swung his Immortal Sword, CLANG~ CLANG~, knocking two flying daggers away.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi chuckled and said, "Junior disciple, isn't it cheating to openly interfere in a battle like this?"

Yuanshi calmly replied, "Bai Yu and Bai Ze share a deep master-disciple bond, and Duobao and Bai Jin share a deep brotherly bond. What's wrong with that?"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi nodded and said no more. His argument truly couldn't convince anyone. Now that both sides had contributed a magic treasure, it was considered fair.

Duobao couldn't help but glance down at Bai Jin. Bai Jin grinned and nodded at Duobao.

Duobao felt like he was being mocked by that smile. Suddenly, a cold glint flashed, and Duobao hastily brought his sword up to block.

CLANG~ The two flying daggers struck the sword, sending sparks flying and pushing Duobao stumbling backward.

The remaining five flying daggers instantly turned and converged to attack.

Daoist Duobao shot into the sky, dodging the deadly assault of the five white lights. He gritted his teeth, I'll trust him this once.

A surge of immense magical power flowed into the Treasure Dropping Coin. With a wave of his hand, the Treasure Dropping Coin flapped its wings and flew out.

The seven dancing white lights instantly stopped, revealing the seven flying daggers themselves. Their opened eyes closed, and they floated motionlessly in the air.

Bai Yu, watching from afar, cried out in shock, "How is this possible?"

He quickly shouted, "Treasure, turn around!"

"Treasure, turn around completely."

The seven flying daggers remained still, as if they couldn't hear him at all.

Bai Yu's heart was filled with panic and rage. "Bastard, move!" he roared.

Daoist Duobao hovered in the air, panting heavily. He looked at the seven Immortal Slaying Flying Daggers and a ridiculous thought arose in his mind, as if he could obtain them with a mere thought. He tentatively said, "Treasure, return!"

The Treasure Dropping Coin instantly grew larger, and the seven Immortal Slaying Flying Daggers passed through the square hole in its center one by one, landing in Daoist Duobao's hand. The Treasure Dropping Coin then shrank and flew back to Daoist Duobao, who caught it.

Daoist Duobao's eyes widened with ecstasy. He had actually obtained them?! He tightened his grip on the Treasure Dropping Coin. What a treasure, what a treasure!

The disciples of Shangqing Peak below were also in an uproar. What kind of magic treasure did Senior Brother Bai Jin give to Senior Brother Duobao to collect these seven flying daggers?

Holy Mother Wudang floated down to the cliff edge and looked at Bai Jin in disbelief. "Can your magic treasure collect other people's magic treasures?"

Bai Jin nodded matter-of-factly. "Yes!"

"Can it only collect hidden weapons and flying daggers, or all magic treasures? Can it collect mine too?"

"It can collect magic treasures of a lower grade than the Treasure Dropping Coin," he emphasized. "The Treasure Dropping Coin is currently a mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure."

A ridiculous thought arose in Holy Mother Wudang's mind. How could such a treasure exist in the world? With this magic treasure, wouldn't it mean that most magic treasures in the world could be taken at will? She immediately realized the preciousness of this magic treasure and felt even more moved.

Bai Jin sighed, "Senior Sister, now you know how precious my Treasure Dropping Coin is! You must help me get the Treasure Dropping Coin back later. I'm afraid Senior Disciple Brother will covet my magic treasure."

Holy Mother Wudang said solemnly, "Junior Brother, don't worry. No matter what, Senior Sister will help you get this magic treasure back, even if we have to fight our way to Master."

The Three Pure Ones below were also stunned. They looked at the Treasure Dropping Coin in Duobao's hand with surprise. What kind of magic treasure was it that collected all seven Immortal Slaying Flying Daggers?

Eastern Emperor Taiyi's expression turned grave. This round was lost.

In the air, Daoist Duobao gripped his Immortal Sword and charged straight at Bai Yu.

Bai Yu's face changed drastically. He retreated repeatedly, shouting, "I surrender!"

The next moment, a cold, gleaming Immortal Sword appeared, pointing directly at Bai Yu's neck, held perfectly still.

The bone-chilling cold made the hairs on Bai Yu's body stand on end, and his pupils contracted violently.

Daoist Duobao said coldly, "Hand over the box."

"Yes, yes~" Bai Yu nodded repeatedly. With a wave of his hand, the box in his hand instantly flew out, shooting off into the distance at an angle. He immediately retreated, putting distance between them.

Daoist Duobao's expression changed. He ignored Bai Yu and quickly chased after the box. He was determined to obtain this treasure that could harm him. Although it was far less precious than the winged magic treasure he had just obtained, it was still a rare guardian divine weapon.

Bai Yu immediately turned and flew towards Eastern Emperor Taiyi's imperial carriage. Treasures could be refined again, but a life could only be lived once.

On the other side, Daoist Duobao chased the wind and the moon, and in the blink of an eye, he was behind the treasure box. He grabbed it, his face filled with joy. It's complete.

Chaotic array patterns suddenly appeared on the treasure box. Daoist Duobao's expression changed, and he hastily retreated. BOOM~ The treasure box suddenly exploded, and a torrent of violent spiritual energy swept out, instantly sending Daoist Duobao flying.

Pfft~ Duobao spat out a mouthful of blood, tumbling through the air.

Bai Yu looked back at the exploding sky, blinking his innocent big eyes. Huh? Why did it explode?

Eastern Emperor Taiyi nodded at Bai Yu. Well done!

Bai Yu was also puzzled. Why did it explode? I didn't do it!

Eastern Emperor Taiyi said loudly, "Little nephew, as cultivators, greed is not a virtue!"

Daoist Duobao stabilized himself, his face pale. He coughed twice, clutching his chest, and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Martial Uncle. This nephew will bear it in mind." He turned and flew downwards.

As Duobao flew halfway down, the spiritual energy in his injured body suddenly became chaotic. He cried out and plummeted downwards, crashing onto the mountain road with a RUMBLE, creating a large hole.

Bai Jin covered his face with his sleeve, unable to bear watching Duobao's miserable state. He felt a lingering fear, thinking, Is this the consequence of trading luck? He looks so pathetic!

"Senior Disciple Brother~"

"Brother~"

Dingguang Immortal with Long Ears and the others quickly flew down, lifting Duobao out of the rocky pit.

Tongtian laughed heartily and said, "Junior Brother, I win this time."

Eastern Emperor Taiyi nodded and smiled, "Your disciples are indeed outstanding, Senior Brother, but with an outsider interfering, this round shouldn't count."

Yuanshi said sternly, "Taiyi, are you going back on your word?!" He stepped forward and said, "Forget it~ Let's just have a match in the chaos instead!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi chuckled, "Senior Brother, you're trying to scare me again. How about this! Best of three rounds, and we'll count this first round as your victory."

Tongtian nodded and said, "Agreed!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi said, "Now it's my turn to send someone."

On the cliff edge, Holy Mother Wudang instructed, "Junior Brother, if it's a Golden Immortal, you fight. If it's a Taiyi Golden Immortal, I'll step in."

Bai Jin pointed to himself in surprise and asked, "Me?" He put on a pained expression and said, "Sister, why don't you let Jinling go? She's also a Golden Immortal! Besides, Sister, you know my aptitude is poor, and I'm considered one of the weaker ones among Golden Immortals."
