In the Primordial Era, no mountain was as tall as Buzhou, and no mountain was as vast as Kunlun.
The majestic Kunlun was revered as the Ancestor of Ten Thousand Mountains, the source of all Earth Veins.
Looking down from high above, mountains stretched from afar, layering one upon another, with countless peaks soaring to immense heights.
The peaks rose and fell, winding and stretching, each mountain taller than the last.
It could be said that green peaks sliced through jade, and azure ridges piled up clouds.
Clouds drifted, mist shrouded, and the myriad mountains appeared and disappeared intermittently.
Lu Ya, standing on auspicious clouds, had arrived at East Kunlun.
Because the Kunlun mountain range was so vast, a portion of it lay within the East Wasteland, but another part also extended into the West Wasteland.
Dense Innate Spiritual Qi formed a misty aura that coiled around the mountains.
With just a casual glance, he saw many exotic birds and beasts appearing in the mountain forests.
Upon descending upon East Kunlun, Lu Ya began his search for the Three Pure Ones.
For a time, it was as if he shifted the Big Dipper past the Southern Dipper, with both hands holding the sun and moon, flying towards Kunlun Mountain, transforming into a cloud in an instant.
Lu Ya held a wisp of Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi in his hand.
Even though he knew that Taishang, the foremost of the Three Pure Ones, possessed a Mysterious Yellow Pagoda.
And Taishang's pagoda was the First Acquired Merit Supreme Treasure, not only condensed from a vast amount of Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi but also containing some of Pangu's merit from creating the world.
But there must be powerful Innate Formations protecting the Three Pure Ones.
With the Primordial Great Array blocking the way, the difficulty of finding the Three Pure Ones undoubtedly increased.
After the Heavenly Dao went online, finding the Three Pure Ones became even harder.
Time flowed by, and without realizing it, Lu Ya had been in East Kunlun for several years.
He had collected some treasures but still hadn't found the Three Pure Ones.
It seemed the Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi wasn't effective either!
Lu Ya didn't force it, letting everything happen naturally.
One day, Lu Ya was meditating under a towering ancient tree, breathing in Spiritual Energy and absorbing the Essence of Sun and Moon.
A Profound and Mysterious state of enlightenment appeared upon him.
His cultivation was about seizing the Good Fortune of Heaven and Earth.
To follow was to be mortal, to defy was to become an Immortal.
Whether Immortal, Sage, Spirit, or Demon, cultivation was all about seizing the Good Fortune of Heaven and Earth.
When the Good Fortune of Heaven and Earth diminished, Great Tribulations would appear.
Suddenly, Lu Ya's mind stirred.
A wisp of Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi in his Mud Pill Palace seemed to sense something.
This is...
Sensing the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda?
With a flash of insight, Lu Ya's heart filled with anticipation, and he stopped cultivating, rising abruptly.
Following the sensation of the Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi, he searched.
Using the Golden Crow Rainbow Transformation Art, he instantly traversed thousands of mountains.
When Lu Ya then used Sunlight for teleportation, it surpassed the realm of 'speed'.
It could be called the perfect combination of 'speed' and 'space'.
Sunlight was the power of the Sun Star, also known as the 'domain' of the Sun Star.
It was inevitable that a clone within the main body's domain would receive a boost.
The higher the level, the greater the boost received.
After a long while, Lu Ya retracted his escape light at the foot of a precipitous mountain.
This mountain soared into the clouds, seemingly reaching the heavens.
At the foot of the mountain was a cliff shaped like a Kirin.
Under the gaze of Lu Ya's Sun God Eyes, he could see that the visible part of the mountain was only a small portion; the majority was shrouded by an Innate Formation.
"This is definitely the main peak of East Kunlun, no less than the main peak of West Kunlun."
Although it was the main peak of East Kunlun, it was concealed by a great power.
Furthermore, it was shielded by the Heavenly Dao's Qi.
Therefore, finding this place within the vast Kunlun mountain range was not easy.
If not for following the sensation of the Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi, Lu Ya would not have been able to come here.
Looking at the vast Innate Great Array that enveloped the area, Lu Ya's face broke into a smile.
The main peak of Kunlun Mountain was protected by a powerful Primordial Great Array.
It was almost certain that the Three Pure Ones were within this mountain.
Seeking out the Three Pure Ones was also a way to foster good karma; there was no ill intent.
Considering the Three Pure Ones were formed from Pangu's Primordial Spirit, harboring malice towards them in the Primordial Era would only lead to trouble.
Taking a step forward, Lu Ya had already ascended 'Kirin Cliff' and was heading towards the Primordial Great Array.
Before long, he entered the array.
Within the array was a world of its own, bizarre and wondrous, evolving boundless dangers.
Terrifying killing intent lurked everywhere.
This array was structured according to the Three Powers, evolving the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth, containing the mechanisms of the universe.
Suddenly, the space-time around Lu Ya became chaotic, and then Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind surged forth from the Void.
The violent Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind seemed capable of destroying everything.
Facing such a situation, Lu Ya dared not be careless.
A patch of Auspicious Cloud emerged from Lu Ya's Mud Pill Palace, supporting three flowers – one black, one white, and one green. Golden-red auspicious energy descended like strings of pearls, ceaselessly.
Above his three flowers was an Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Under the protection of his Divine Abilities and Magic Treasures, the Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind could not harm Lu Ya.
However, his consumption of Magic Power was astonishing.
Furthermore, it was difficult to recover Magic Power within this array.
Yet, as soon as this array began to operate, it drew upon the power of the sun, moon, and stars.
It drew upon the power of the Sun Star, and Lu Ya didn't even need to infiltrate it.
In a short period, the principles of this array became clear to him.
Lu Ya also smiled.
He particularly liked array formations that drew upon the power of the Sun Star.
With the principles of the array understood, breaking it was no longer difficult.
But Lu Ya did not break the array.
While amidst the Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind, Lu Ya formed hand seals, unleashing streams of Magic Power and primordial light.
Before long, the operation of the array began to change.
Wandering within the array, Lu Ya soon arrived at its core.
A wisp of Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi guided him.
Passing through the array, he saw a majestic mountain.
Great Thousand Worlds appeared, hundreds upon thousands of them, all at the same dimensional level as the Primordial Era.
When a Great Thousand World was destroyed, another Great Thousand World was born.
"This place is truly a Blessed Land," Lu Ya exclaimed.
Crossing through the Great Thousand Worlds, he saw the Three Pure Ones, along with a Mysterious Yellow Pagoda.
The Three Pure Ones had not yet Assumed Human Form, but they all possessed Grand Unity level cultivation.
It seemed the Three Pure Ones all had Grand Unity level Origins.
This was normal; Pangu's Primordial Spirit, nurtured by Innate Pure Qi, was naturally extraordinary.
Lu Ya's gaze swept over them, first observing Taiqing. He naturally existed before the Great Void, arising without cause, traversing Heaven and Earth, his beginning and end unutterable, infinite and boundless, cycling and transforming with the Great Dao, establishing roots for Heaven and Earth, spreading Qi in all directions, embracing the utmost purity of Virtue, vast and boundless, beyond naming.
Next, he observed Yuqing, whose manifestation revealed a wondrous phenomenon. Before Heaven and Earth took shape, Chaos was un-split, and all things unborn, he wandered within it. After the Two Forms differentiated, he ascended, absorbing the Heavenly Qi, residing before the Primordial Origin.
Finally, he observed Shangqing. He was the refined Qi of the Jade Palace, the purple smoke of Auspicious Clouds, his jade brilliance shining, his golden reflection revealing truth, coalescing and containing beauty, encompassing and establishing spirit. He existed without existing, and without without existing, unseen when looked at, unheard when listened to; the Great Dao resided between the subtle existence and non-existence.
"The Three Pure Ones, venerable spirits, are the foundation of understanding the Dao, the origin of comprehending the Dao, the very Qi of the Dao," Lu Ya thought.
Although the Three Pure Ones currently only had Grand Unity level cultivation, the three of them working together could easily contend with ordinary Grand Unity cultivators.
Coupled with the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda, whose power was comparable to an Innate Supreme Treasure, it would be difficult to subdue the Three Pure Ones without being a Quasi-Sage.
Unsure if Lu Ya was friend or foe, the Three Pure Ones were on guard.
"Greetings, I am Lu Ya. I was traveling in Kunlun Mountain and accidentally entered this place. I apologize for any disturbance, esteemed Daoist friends," Lu Ya said with a smile, showing goodwill.
Even though Lu Ya displayed goodwill, the Three Pure Ones did not lower their guard.
"Taiqing greets you, fellow Daoist," Taiqing released his divine sense to communicate with Lu Ya.
Following that, Yuqing and Shangqing also released their divine senses.
"Yuanshi (Tongtian) greets you, fellow Daoist."
The Three Pure Ones could not see through Lu Ya, but they faintly sensed a Grand Unity Dao Charm.
Indeed, anyone who could arrive here would not be an ordinary individual.
"We are fated to meet, and I wish to help the three Daoist friends assume human form," Lu Ya said to the Three Pure Ones.
Upon hearing Lu Ya's words, the Three Pure Ones fell silent.
After all, accepting this favor meant incurring causality.
However, relying on the Three Pure Ones alone, it would likely take several or even a dozen Epochs for them to assume human form.
It was certainly better to assume human form earlier.
Even if assuming human form with external help caused their magic power to be imperfectly circulated, they could achieve harmony with a little time and effort.
"This would be too much trouble for you, Daoist friend," Taishang said.
Primordial and Tongtian always listened to their elder brother, so Taishang's attitude represented not only himself but also his two younger brothers.
Helping the Three Pure Ones assume human form was not an easy task.
It was somewhat difficult for Lu Ya to accomplish this with his own magic power alone.
Therefore, Lu Ya connected his mind to the Sun Star.
In the unseen depths, a great magic power was bestowed upon Lu Ya.
The next moment, Lu Ya extended his hand, and a vast surge of magic power flowed from it, enveloping the Three Pure Ones.
The Three Pure Ones were a single entity, their Qi connected. Helping them assume human form had to be done all at once.
It was impossible to help one of the Three Pure Ones assume human form without helping the other two.
"Who is this divine being? His magic power is truly boundless," the Three Pure Ones marveled inwardly.
