Opportunity Arrives, Great Divine Powers Appear

These days, the Three Pure Ones have not yet attained enlightenment. It's the perfect time for him to flatter them. Once the three become saints, they will be high above, their every action imbued with the majesty of the Heavenly Dao. They won't be as approachable then, and he wouldn't dare strike up a casual conversation with a saint.

Now that he's under Tongtian's tutelage, if he can just butter up Laozi and Primordial, his two senior uncles, and keep them happy, surely they won't have the heart to send him onto the Investiture of the Gods during the Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods?

As long as he survives the Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods, and the six saints are locked away by the Dao Ancestor, then when the cat's away, the mice will play. Li Yunjing will contend for the seventh saint position in the Primordial Desolation. No matter who stands in his way, he'll kill gods and buddhas alike!

"Your disciple is quite filial! This is a Seven Revolutions Golden Elixir refined by your senior uncle. Take it!" Laozi was very pleased. He took out a jade bottle and gave it to Li Yunjing.

"Many thanks for the reward, Eldest Senior Brother!"

Li Yunjing knelt before Laozi with his knees bent, holding his hands above his head. He respectfully accepted the immortal elixir. At this time, Laozi had not yet become a saint, and this Seven Revolutions Golden Elixir was the limit of what he could refine. Bestowing it upon Li Yunjing now clearly showed his utmost satisfaction with him.

"Since my elder brother has bestowed a gift upon you, it wouldn't be right for me, your second senior uncle, to give nothing," Primordial said with a smile. "Here are ten drops of Three Lights Divine Water. Take it and use it!"

Receiving another jade bottle, Li Yunjing's face nearly split into a grin. This was true fortune! With just a kneel, all sorts of good things came his way. The Three Lights Divine Water was unique. Obtaining such a treasure from Primordial was invaluable, whether for cultivating water-element divine abilities or for watering the Enlightenment Tea Tree. It was truly the best holy water in the world.

"Your two senior uncles have given you treasures. As your teacher, I can't be left behind. This is my supreme-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Purple Lightning Hammer. Take it to play with!"

As he said this, Tongtian still felt a twinge of heartache. However, he wasn't like Tongtian Sect Master, who had accumulated a vast fortune from traveling the Primordial Desolation, nor had he reached the Treasure Distribution Rock to distribute treasures. Tongtian Sect Master had already accepted five true disciples, so his pockets were empty. He could only put on a brave face.

"Master! How could this disciple dare to accept? A supreme-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure is too precious!"

Looking at the small hammer surrounded by crackling electrical sparks, Li Yunjing was truly stunned. He never expected his master to be so generous, willing to give a supreme-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure to a disciple.

"You rascal! Do you think I'd take back a treasure I've given?"

Seeing Li Yunjing's hesitation, Tongtian smiled slightly, feeling quite pleased. This disciple knew to care for his teacher. He himself needed to travel the Primordial Desolation more. Otherwise, if he accepted more disciples without treasures to bestow, wouldn't he lose face?

Didn't he see Winged Immortal looking at him expectantly?

But, he truly had nothing left!

Did he have to take out his own enlightenment artifact, the Qingping Sword, to give to him?

In the end, Li Yunjing accepted the Purple Lightning Hammer, his face filled with gratitude. Choosing to become a disciple of the Three Pure Ones was indeed the right decision. Before the Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods, the title "Orthodox Xuanmen" was not a mere formality. Once the Witch-Demon conflict ended, the entire world would belong to them. As the most powerful faction, the Jie Sect, Li Yunjing would naturally benefit greatly. Blessed by the Heavenly Dao, he would receive countless advantages.

"Oh, right! Eldest Senior Uncle, Second Senior Uncle, Master, there's an opportunity here that Winged Immortal and I discovered, but unfortunately, we can't enter this valley." Remembering the important matter, Li Yunjing quickly reported to his three elders.

"Haha! The time has not yet come. It cannot be forced! This treasure is about to emerge. Yunjing, you can use this opportunity to broaden your horizons and see the great divine abilities of the Primordial Desolation!" Primordial, seeing Li Yunjing's filial piety, was extremely pleased with him and offered this guidance.

As expected, as Primordial's words fell, several more figures appeared in the distant sky: Nuwa, a great divine ability of the Demon Race; Di Jun, the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court; and Old Ancestor Hongyun, the foremost kind-hearted elder of the Primordial Desolation. These three great divine abilities descended from the clouds simultaneously.

Li Yunjing stood behind Tongtian, stealing glances at these legendary figures.

Nuwa's face was gentle yet solemn, her eyes shimmering with wisdom. She wore magnificent robes, like stars in the night sky, emitting a mysterious radiance.

Di Jun, clad in a golden imperial robe, had deep and bright eyes that seemed to perceive and command all things, as if he were the master of the sky and earth. An aura of supreme authority emanated from him, making even Li Yunjing feel a sense of inferiority, as if he were naturally shorter than the other.

Old Ancestor Hongyun, on the other hand, gave Li Yunjing an immediate feeling of extreme familiarity. This old Daoist, dressed in a fiery red robe, had kind eyebrows and gentle eyes, always wearing a smiling expression.

The six Grand Unity Golden Immortals greeted each other. Li Yunjing and Winged Immortal, as juniors, also paid their respects to the three great figures under Tongtian's guidance, as juniors should.

When the fated individuals had gathered, the mist that Li Yunjing and Winged Immortal had exhausted their magic power trying to penetrate, but could not open, dissipated on its own, revealing the Gourd Vine in the valley.

"Alas! As expected, they are not the fated ones!" The six great divine abilities stepped forward. Li Yunjing followed behind Tongtian, watching the great figures chatting and laughing with a hint of envy.

Looking at the seven gourds radiating Daoist charm, Laozi said, "We three are the legitimate descendants of Pangu. These seven gourds should have a share for us three. Each of my brothers will take one."

Di Jun, Nuwa, and Hongyun nodded. "Fellow Daoist speaks wisely. This is an excellent proposal."

With that, Laozi stepped forward first. The purple gourd automatically detached itself and quickly flew towards him. Laozi waved his hand and collected it.

Next, Primordial stepped forward and, with a wave of his hand, the green gourd flew towards him. Tongtian followed, and the cyan gourd flew towards him.

Di Jun was not idle either. He took a few steps forward and waved his hand. The yellow gourd automatically detached itself and flew towards him. Nuwa then stepped forward, and the orange gourd quickly flew towards her. Finally, Hongyun took the crimson gourd.

"What a pity, the blue-skinned gourd. Its innate foundation is insufficient, and it has withered prematurely!"

The six great divine abilities sighed. Gourds produced by such Innate Spiritual Roots were all Innate Spiritual Treasures. With a little refining, one could integrate their divine abilities and Dao laws into the gourd.

"Master! No one wants this blue gourd. May I take it back and see if I can save it?" Li Yunjing whispered into Tongtian's ear, feigning sincerity.

However, everyone present was a great divine ability of the Primordial Desolation. Who wouldn't hear him?

"Since the young friend desires it, take it and play with it," Hongyun said with a smile.

Even Grand Unity Golden Immortals could not save such a spiritual item. How could a mere junior possibly succeed?

Although the withered blue-skinned gourd was a treasure, it was like a chicken's rib to Grand Unity Golden Immortals. Even Di Jun and Nuwa did not object.
