Clusters of Tribulation Clouds appeared above Immortal Volcano.
All of a sudden, Earth Qi surged, and firelight shot straight into the Sky Dome.
Even the Sun Star in the sky resonated.
The exact reason was unknown, but for many living beings within the mountain, it was a rare opportunity.
For a time, some living beings assumed human form, some broke through in cultivation, and some even comprehended Laws.
Some living beings thus triggered Heavenly Tribulations.
At the same time, Immortal Volcano's Array Master was activated.
An array barrier descended.
All the Tribulation Clouds were blocked outside the array.
Judging from the clouds, most were Four-Nine Heavenly Tribulations, while a few were Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulations. Yet no Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulations could be seen.
After all, Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulations had always been rare.
Now, Four-Nine Heavenly Tribulations appeared somewhere in the Primordial World every day, and Six-Nine Heavenly Tribulations were also common enough, but Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulations remained scarce.
Within Phoenix Cave, Yuan Feng emerged from seclusion as well.
"What is going on?" Yuan Feng asked, startled and uncertain.
The changes in Immortal Volcano were considerable and had also affected Yuan Feng's cultivation.
Yet even with Yuan Feng's cultivation nearing the Quasi-Saint realm, along with her Grand Unity Dao Fruit, she could not deduce the cause of this upheaval.
Still, judging from the situation before her, it was not necessarily a bad thing.
She raised her head and looked at the Tribulation Clouds beyond the Mountain Protecting Great Array.
So many Heavenly Tribulations had appeared at once. If they struck together, even if the great array could withstand them, its foundations would suffer considerable damage.
After a brief thought, Yuan Feng moved her jade-like hand and produced a treasure: the Earth-Leaving Flame-Light Banner.
In an instant, the Earth-Leaving Flame-Light Banner passed through the array barrier.
The moment it reached the outside, this Innate Southern Banner unleashed divine light ten thousand zhang high, along with a thousand streams of auspicious qi.
Clouds and rosy mist swirled around it.
Innate Flame transformed into countless fire lotuses.
Yuan Feng had not brought out her treasure to directly resist the Heavenly Tribulations, but to reinforce the array.
According to the Heavenly Dao Rules, helping another resist a Heavenly Tribulation would count as undergoing the tribulation together, causing the tribulation to escalate.
However, the Heavenly Dao also had loopholes.
Lending out a treasure or helping set up an array could both assist someone in overcoming a Heavenly Tribulation.
But intervening directly was not allowed.
For example, if a living being triggered a Four-Nine Heavenly Tribulation and Yuan Feng intervened directly, the Four-Nine Heavenly Tribulation would inevitably rise into a Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation and lock onto Yuan Feng as well.
After using the Earth-Leaving Flame-Light Banner to reinforce the Mountain Protecting Great Array, Yuan Feng loosened some of the array's restrictions.
Yet what happened next left Yuan Feng stunned.
The Tribulation Clouds rapidly dispersed one after another.
Yuan Feng: ???
Not only Yuan Feng, but many living beings in Immortal Volcano were also utterly bewildered.
Lu Ya's figure appeared outside the array.
Everything had happened suddenly, but the root cause was the Sun Star.
As the first Three-legged Golden Crow between Heaven and Earth, Lu Ya was merely an incarnation. The Sun Star was his true body.
His true body had attained the Grand Unity Dao Fruit. Not only had his understanding of the Heavenly Tribulation Method deepened, but his comprehension of certain Laws had also grown greater.
Now, the greatest change on the Sun Star was undoubtedly the Law of Fire.
It was no exaggeration to say that Lu Yang's Law of Fire had grown more than ten thousand times stronger.
It could be said that Lu Ya had absorbed a massive amount of power of Heavenly Tribulation right beneath Yuan Feng's nose, yet Yuan Feng had noticed nothing at all.
Distance was one reason, while sunlight provided concealment and his mana surpassed Yuan Feng's. But the most important reason was that his understanding of the Heavenly Tribulation Method far exceeded what it had once been.
Somewhere in the Primordial Era, deep within a dense mountain forest, spiritual qi was rich enough to form drifting mist.
Sunlight filtered through the branches and leaves of ancient trees, falling in scattered patches.
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through, causing the towering ancient trees to sway.
Shadows of trees danced as a figure stepped out of the sunlight. It was Di Jun.
Di Jun looked toward the distance, where a valley lay concealed by a Primordial Great Array.
Since a Primordial Great Array concealed it, the valley likely held some mystery.
"This Primordial Great Array is quite well hidden," Di Jun muttered.
Even for the Sun Star, discovering this Primordial Great Array had been a fortunate coincidence.
But since he had found it, he naturally needed to investigate.
Lu Yang's Main Body could not move lightly, so he sent an incarnation to take a look.
Using Golden Crows as incarnations, Lu Yang currently had only two incarnations.
Lu Ya could not leave Immortal Volcano, so Di Jun had been sent instead.
Because he had cultivated for less time than Lu Ya, and Lu Ya had also consumed many spiritual fruits and pills, Di Jun's cultivation was far inferior to Lu Ya's.
He strode toward the Primordial Great Array ahead. Before long, Di Jun entered the array.
There were many dangers within the array, so Di Jun hurriedly brought out the River Diagram and Luo Book to protect himself.
With the River Diagram and Luo Book guarding him, he would be safe.
Only then could he properly observe the array.
"This is an Innate Three Powers Array." Di Jun fell into thought.
The so-called Three Powers were Heaven, Earth, and Man. Heaven was Sun, Moon, and Stars; Earth was Water, Fire, and Wind; Man was Essence, Qi, and Spirit.
Sun, Moon, and Stars together formed the "Heaven" among the Three Powers, while the Sun Star was merely one part of that Heaven.
This showed just how vast the Three Powers were.
At the Primordial World's level, if the Innate Three Powers Great Array were brought to its fullest power, it could contend against a Hunyuan Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
But this Innate Three Powers Array was rather lacking. It would not be difficult for it to suppress and kill a Golden Immortal level cultivator, but suppressing and killing a Grand Unity level cultivator would be much harder.
By carefully observing the array's operation, one could easily see that "Man" modeled "Earth." As for "Earth" modeling "Heaven," that was not so easy to discern, while "Heaven" modeling the Dao was even harder. In the end, Dao follows Nature.
It would not be easy to break this array either, of course, that was for Di Jun.
If Lu Ya had been here, breaking this array would not have been difficult.
After wandering around the array for a long time, Di Jun found the Array Eye.
Next, the scene within the valley concealed by the array was completely revealed before Di Jun.
Golden, silver, and purple light mingled together, dazzling the eye.
He could also hear the murmur of flowing water.
"So it is Three Lights Divine Water." Di Jun smiled.
Golden Sunlight Divine Water could wear away essence blood, silver Moonlight Divine Water could corrode the primordial spirit, and purple Starlight Divine Water could devour and dissolve consciousness. Yet when the three were combined, they became a holy-grade spiritual medicine.
There was a large amount of Sunlight Divine Water, Moonlight Divine Water, and Starlight Divine Water here, as well as some Three Lights Divine Water.
There was not much Three Lights Divine Water, only a few trillion tons.
Do not think that was a lot. A single drop of Three Lights Divine Water was extraordinarily heavy.
It was even slightly heavier than Primordial Water.
As for Sunlight Divine Water, it was far lighter than Three Lights Divine Water. Moonlight Divine Water was a little lighter than Sunlight Divine Water, while Starlight Divine Water was the lightest of all.
Normally, an ordinary Golden Immortal would have to toil in the starry sea for several hundred years to refine a single drop of Three Lights Divine Water.
Thus, Three Lights Divine Water was rather precious in the Primordial World.
Taking out a Jade Pure Bottle, Di Jun first collected all the Three Lights Divine Water.
Then, he divided his mana into three portions.
One portion of mana lifted one hundred thousand tons of Sunlight Divine Water, another lifted one hundred thousand tons of Moonlight Divine Water, and the last lifted one hundred thousand tons of Starlight Divine Water.
The next moment, the three portions of mana merged into one.
The three divine waters changed the moment they came into contact.
Before long, they fused into Three Lights Divine Water.
There was actually less than half a ton of Three Lights Divine Water.
Three hundred thousand tons had become less than half a ton in the blink of an eye. The change was truly immense.
The Jade Pure Bottle collected the Three Lights Divine Water once more.
He continued using mana to lift one hundred thousand tons of Sunlight Divine Water, one hundred thousand tons of Moonlight Divine Water, and one hundred thousand tons of Starlight Divine Water.
His mana circulated without pause.
The three divine waters.
Fused.
In the end, some Sunlight Divine Water and Moonlight Divine Water remained.
Since the Starlight Divine Water was gone, it was no longer possible to produce Three Lights Divine Water.
With no intention of wasting them, he collected the remaining Sunlight Divine Water and Moonlight Divine Water as well.
They would be useful someday.
Before Yuan Feng could enter seclusion again, Lu Ya left Immortal Volcano.
Lu Ya headed toward East Kunlun.
A wisp of Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi appeared in Lu Ya's hand.
Pangu's Primordial Spirit had inherited Innate Pure Qi and transformed into the Three Pure Ones.
The Leader of the Three Pure Ones, Taishang, possessed the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda.
Thus, relying on the resonance of the Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi, perhaps he could find the Three Pure Ones.
This time, Lu Ya was going to East Kunlun to try to find the Three Pure Ones.
This wisp of Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi had cost his true body considerable effort.
Heaven was dark and Earth was yellow; Mysterious Yellow thus meant Heaven and Earth.
Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi was the mother of all things and the root of Heaven and Earth. Calling it the origin of the Primordial World would not be an exaggeration.
During Pangu's Creation, there had been quite a lot of Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi, but as Heaven and Earth took shape, it became difficult to find.
Furthermore, even when creating small worlds in the Primordial World, Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi was rarely seen.
He was not certain he could find the Three Pure Ones. If he failed, he would simply treat it as a journey through East Kunlun.
