Generous Rewards, Twelve Golden Immortals Like Trash

As Lin Xuan's thought settled.

A crisp system notification chimed in his mind again.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining one Pangu's Marrow."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining one Mirror Projection Talisman."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining one Sword Dao Law Seed."

Following the system notifications, three items radiating profound energy appeared in Lin Xuan's divine sense.

Lin Xuan's gaze was immediately drawn to the Pangu's Marrow, which emanated a powerful aura, resembling divine jade.

It was known that Pangu's True Body was the epitome of the strongest physique in both the Primordial World and Chaos.

Even the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods, renowned for their unparalleled combat power, were merely a match for Pangu.

The drop of Pangu's Essence Blood and the Primordial Spirit rewarded by the System previously had allowed Lin Xuan, a mere innate spirit not even considered an innate demon god, to achieve the true body of a Chaos Demon God.

His foundation was profoundly deep, far surpassing any being in the Primordial World.

Now, he had also obtained this Pangu's Marrow.

Lin Xuan dared not imagine to what level his combat power would soar after completely refining and integrating this Marrow into himself.

Even.

He might be able to reverse-engineer Pangu's True Body with this Marrow!

At that time, who cared about the Primordial Heavenly Venerate or Hongjun, he could crush either of them with a single finger.

Although this goal was ambitious, it was not impossible to achieve.

Subsequently, Lin Xuan shifted his gaze to another prize.

The Sword Dao Law Seed!

This prize was exactly what he needed when he was struggling.

He had just completely refined the Four Swords of Zhu Xian and was wondering how to unleash their full power.

This Sword Dao Law Seed would elevate Lin Xuan's sword dao talent to the law level.

Any sword technique, in his hands, would be able to unleash one thousand percent of its power.

This was truly adding wings to a tiger for Lin Xuan!

As for the Mirror Projection Talisman, it was drawn from the origin laws of the Chaos Mirror Demon God.

If used correctly, it would definitely produce unexpected results.

Lin Xuan unhesitatingly absorbed the Pangu's Marrow and the Sword Dao Law Seed into his body.

He immediately began to joyfully fuse and comprehend these two rare divine items.

Meanwhile.

The mood of the Primordial Heavenly Venerate, the Grand Supreme Elder Laozi, Zhunti, Jieyin, and the other Four Saints was the complete opposite of Lin Xuan's.

They were currently in the Jade Void Palace, rebuilt by the Primordial Heavenly Venerate.

Their faces were etched with worry.

The Twelve Golden Immortals who were serving them had all consumed the Seven-Revolutions Golden Elixirs gifted by the Grand Supreme Elder Laozi.

Their cultivation had recovered to the Golden Immortal stage, making them the true Twelve 'Golden' Immortals.

After a long while, the Primordial Heavenly Venerate, seated at the head of the table, spoke:

"Fellow Daoists, a full year has passed, and we still have no clue about Golden Ao Island."

"The great undertaking of King Wu's Campaign Against Zhou has been postponed for a whole year."

"If this continues, how will this Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods conclude!"

"Could it be that you and my disciples will all end up on the Investiture of the Gods?"

As he spoke, the Primordial Heavenly Venerate glared at his disciples with disappointment.

They were all useless.

It was one thing that they couldn't compare to Lin Xuan, but the twelve of them combined had their cultivation crippled by the maids, the Three Sisters of Sanxiao.

How could he have been so blind to take such a group of failures as disciples.

Sensing the Primordial Heavenly Venerate's gaze, the Twelve Golden Immortals sat with their heads bowed, attending to their own affairs, not daring to utter a word.

The Grand Supreme Elder Laozi, on the other hand, sat calmly on his cushion, appearing indifferent to everything.

After all, his Human Sect only had Xuandu as a disciple, so he wouldn't end up on the Investiture of the Gods anyway.

Zhunti and Jieyin both wore expressions of distress.

From the Primordial Heavenly Venerate's words, there was a subtle hint that he intended to use the disciples of the Western Sect to fill the Investiture of the Gods.

Immediately, Daoist Zhunti spoke:

"Brother Primordial, my Western Sect has always been poor, and the disciples I've taken in are all virtuous beings who should not face tribulation and end up on the Investiture of the Gods."

Hearing this, a displeased expression couldn't help but appear on Primordial Heavenly Venerate's face.

"Your disciples are all men of great virtue and should not be on the Investiture of the Gods. Does that mean my disciples should be on the list?"

Just as Primordial Heavenly Venerate's face darkened and he was about to erupt.

Daoist Zhunti's tone suddenly shifted.

"However, I have a premonition that things will take a turn for the better not long from now."

Upon hearing Daoist Zhunti's words, a hint of curiosity couldn't help but surface on Primordial Heavenly Venerate's face.

"Oh? What insight does my fellow Daoist have?"

Facing Primordial Heavenly Venerate's question, Daoist Zhunti simply smiled faintly, twirling his fingers.

"The secrets of heaven must not be revealed."

He naturally wouldn't tell Primordial Heavenly Venerate.

He had already planted a hidden hand on Chang'er Dingguang Immortal, one of Sect Master Tongtian's seven attendants.

As long as he waited patiently, that narrow-minded rabbit spirit would eventually come to him.

As for the current Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods, he would endure it for now and fool the Primordial Heavenly Venerate in front of him.

Once they survived this Great Tribulation of Investiture of the Gods, it would be the divinely ordained era for the great prosperity of Buddhism.

By then, it would be Primordial Heavenly Venerate and the others who would have to curry favor with him.

Thinking of this, a genuine smile couldn't help but appear on Daoist Zhunti's face.
