Thirty-Six-Petaled Creation Green Lotus!
A heaven-defying opportunity was right before his eyes!
Su Ming's heart began pounding violently at that moment.
Every beat seemed to resonate with the Dao rhythm of the Creation Green Lotus before him, producing an intimate sensation as if they shared the same bloodline.
After the shock came an uncontrollable frenzy of joy!
This was the Thirty-Six-Petaled Creation Green Lotus!
One of the most supreme innate treasures in the Primordial Wilderness!
According to legend, when Great God Pangu split the heavens and earth, he transformed into all things.
His Primordial Spirit split into three, becoming the future Laozi of Taiqing, Yuqing Yuanshi, and Shangqing Tongtian.
And this Creation Green Lotus should have shared an immense karmic connection with the Three Pure Ones.
Because they had been transformed from the Primordial Spirit of Pangu.
Yet now, this heaven-defying opportunity had been placed right before him!
Su Ming's gaze instantly turned razor-sharp.
The Three Pure Ones?
They had been transformed from the Primordial Spirit of Pangu and arrogantly claimed to be True Descendants of Pangu.
But Su Ming had fused with the Heart of Pangu, inherited the Primordial Spirit of Pangu, and was even the sole inheritor of Pangu's flesh, body, and blood essence!
In terms of identity and lineage, who could be more authentic than him?
This opportunity was destined to belong to him!
If Heaven gave it to him and he did not take it, he would suffer for it instead!
A thought began to grow crazily in Su Ming's heart, impossible to suppress.
So what if he formed a karmic connection with the Three Pure Ones?
In this world of the strong preying on the weak, with an opportunity before him, how could he possibly hand it over?
My fate is determined by me, not Heaven!
Besides, this Heavenly Dao seemed to acknowledge his identity.
Otherwise, why would it have guided him here?
"Collect!"
With a thought, Su Ming no longer hesitated.
He sat cross-legged as the power of his Primordial Spirit surged from between his brows, while he simultaneously activated the Heart of Pangu in his chest.
Buzz—
The Heart of Pangu radiated brilliant golden-black light, and a pure, vast, ancient aura spread outward.
The Thirty-Six-Petaled Creation Green Lotus seemed to sense an aura of the same origin. Its lotus body swayed gently, sending out an intimate, joyous intent.
It offered not the slightest resistance!
Spell formulas shot from Su Ming's hands one after another, transforming into profound runes that imprinted themselves onto the body of the Creation Green Lotus.
The refining process went unexpectedly smoothly.
This innate supreme treasure, powerful enough to drive even Quasi-Saints into jealous madness, was as docile before Su Ming as a little kitten.
The aura of the Heart of Pangu and the Primordial Spirit of Pangu was the best pass.
As the refinement deepened, the connection between Su Ming and the Creation Green Lotus grew increasingly close.
He could clearly sense the vast, sea-like Power of Creation within the green lotus, as well as the deep and boundless laws of the Great Dao.
Time lost all meaning at that moment.
No one knew how much time had passed. When the final rune was imprinted, the entire Thirty-Six-Petaled Creation Green Lotus suddenly shook and erupted with ten thousand zhang of green light, illuminating the entire valley in a Chaos Azure hue.
In the next moment, the green light subsided. The enormous Lotus Platform rapidly shrank, transforming into a streak of light that shot straight into Su Ming's brow before finally hovering within the sea of consciousness in his Violet Palace.
Boom!
The instant the green lotus entered his body, an endless tide of creation energy burst forth, washing through his limbs and bones and nourishing both his Primordial Spirit and physical body.
His magic power rose steadily at that moment!
His physical strength also became even more indestructible under the tempering of this creation energy!
More importantly, with this top-tier innate supreme treasure suppressing his Destiny/Luck and protecting his Primordial Spirit, his defensive power reached an unprecedented and terrifying level!
"Good! Good! Good!"
Su Ming praised it three times in succession, his chest filled with soaring pride.
With this treasure, where in the vast Primordial Wilderness could he not go?
At the same time.
On Yujing Peak of Kunlun Mountain, in the distant eastern continent, immortal mist curled through the air while auspicious radiance filled the sky.
Within Sanqing Palace.
Laozi of Taiqing, Yuqing Yuanshi, and Shangqing Tongtian, who had been meditating with their eyes closed, suddenly opened their eyes almost simultaneously.
Their faces all revealed a trace of shock and confusion.
Just moments ago, an inexplicable sense of dread had struck their hearts without warning.
It was as if something vitally important that had been theirs by birth, something that should have belonged to them, had completely severed its connection with them at that moment!
It was an emptiness originating from the depths of their souls, causing their Dao Hearts to waver and nearly making them cough up blood.
"Eldest Brother, you..."
Shangqing Tongtian, the most hot-tempered of them, spoke first. Sword intent blazed in his eyes, mixed with a trace of uncertainty.
Laozi of Taiqing furrowed his brows tightly. Even his usually inactive and tranquil face now showed unprecedented gravity. He pinched his fingers to calculate, only to discover that the heavenly secrets were a complete chaos. He could calculate nothing.
"Something major has happened." Laozi slowly spoke, his voice low. "That heaven-defying opportunity related to the three of us brothers... is gone."
"What?!"
Yuanshi Tianzun's expression changed. He had always been arrogant, prided himself on being a True Descendant of Pangu, and believed himself blessed with immense fortune. How could he tolerate such a thing happening?
"Who was it?!" Yuanshi Tianzun's voice was cold and filled with boundless fury. "Who exactly dared to seize the opportunity of the Three Pure Ones?"
"Hurry and deduce the heavenly secrets. Find this mastermind!"
Sect Master Tongtian was even more direct. Immortal-Slaying Sword Qi flickered around him. "I want to see what vermin dares to provoke us right under our noses!"
The three brothers exchanged glances, their minds connected.
In the next moment, three vast and boundless terrifying auras shot into the sky from Sanqing Palace, stirring the clouds and winds of the nine heavens!
The Supreme Pure One's Dao of Inaction, the Jade Pure One's Dao of Expounding Heaven, and the Upper Pure One's Dao of Severing Heaven—three entirely different yet same-origin powers perfectly merged at that moment.
A profound and unfathomable Taiji Diagram slowly emerged above their heads. Yin and yang energy circulated, evolving the myriad phenomena of Heaven and Earth as they forcibly began deducing the hidden heavenly secrets!
Every living creature throughout the Kunlun mountain range trembled under this pressure, prostrating themselves on the ground.
However, just as they were about to glimpse a trace of the truth—
Rumble—
Above the nine heavens, an aura far more ancient, more domineering, and more supreme than theirs suddenly descended!
This aura belonged neither to the Heavenly Dao nor to Hongjun. It seemed to transcend everything, originating from the time before Chaos had opened and Heaven and Earth had been distinguished!
Before this aura, the heavenly-secret deduction jointly laid down by the Three Pure Ones was as fragile as a sheet of paper.
"Pfft!"
The Taiji Diagram shattered instantly!
The Three Pure Ones were struck as if by thunder. They all spat out a mouthful of golden blood, their faces turning deathly pale as their auras weakened to the extreme.
"How is this possible!" Sect Master Tongtian's face was filled with disbelief.
Laozi of Taiqing was likewise filled with shock. He murmured to himself, "That aura... could it be... Father God Pangu?"
Only Yuanshi Tianzun, after his brief shock, had an endless fury and humiliation surge across his face.
He slammed his palm onto the cloud bed beneath him, causing the entire Yujing Peak to tremble!
"Our opponent actually possesses the power of Father God!"
"Good! Very good!"
"No matter who you are, or what method you used to obscure the heavenly secrets!"
"You seized the opportunity of my brothers. This enmity is irreconcilable!"
"When the day comes that I uncover the truth, I will ensure your soul is annihilated and that you never reincarnate!"
Yuanshi Tianzun's roar echoed over Kunlun Mountain for a long time. The killing intent within it caused even Heaven and Earth to change color.
At that moment, Su Ming, the true culprit behind everything, remained completely unaware.
He was happily sizing up the now-empty spirit pool.
After the Creation Green Lotus vanished, the scene at the bottom of the pool was revealed.
A thick layer of soil radiating nine-colored light lay quietly at the bottom.
The soil contained an unimaginable vitality and aura of creation.
Su Ming's breathing caught once again.
"This... this is... Innate Breathing Soil?!"
Another legendary top-tier supreme treasure!
This item had been transformed from the essence of the earth's origin. A small handful could become an entire continent, and it possessed countless wondrous uses when used to grow spiritual roots!
He had struck it rich!
This time, he had truly made a killing!
Su Ming did not hold back in the slightest. With a wave of his hand, he directly collected all the Innate Breathing Soil at the bottom of the pool, along with the incomparably pure Essence of Innate Gui Water, into his storage space.
Only after finishing all this did he contentedly survey the valley he had completely looted and chuckle.
Now that everything here was settled, it was time to leave.
Su Ming's figure vanished behind ripples in space like waves on water.
Outside, the stone wall remained an ordinary stone wall, as if nothing had ever happened.
"This Primordial Wilderness really is brimming with opportunities."
Feeling the surging power within his body and the Creation Green Lotus quietly floating in his sea of consciousness, Su Ming's heart burned with excitement.
His gaze turned toward the center of the Primordial Wilderness, toward that pillar supporting the heavens and earth.
Buzhou Mountain!
The first divine mountain of the Primordial Wilderness, transformed from Pangu's spine!
According to legend, another heaven-defying opportunity was gestating there.
The Innate Gourd Vine!
"Buzhou Mountain, Innate Gourd Vine..."
Su Ming licked his lips, blazing light erupting from his eyes.
"You're next!"
