"Since you insist on repaying us, I won't stop you."
"You cultivate the physical body, so you must practice the Nine Revolutions Profound Art. We Three Pure Ones were formed from Pangu's primordial spirit and do not cultivate the Great Dao of the Physical Body, but some of our disciples may be suited to this method. You may pass on its formula."
Second Master had done beautifully.
Could it be that the original Eight-Nine Profound Art had been altered from this?
Among the Three Pure Ones,
Zhou Qingqing only knew that Jade Pure Yuanshi had taught the Eight-Nine Profound Art. Now, it seemed that Second Master really knew how to get to the heart of the matter.
Even if he did not cultivate the physical body himself, he still knew to secure benefits for his disciples.
Listening to Zhou Qingqing's praise,
Supreme Pure Laozi still managed to keep a straight face.
Upper Pure Tongtian had long since turned his head away.
When had Second Brother ever cared about securing benefits for his disciples? He was simply copying what he saw.
"The Nine Revolutions Profound Art? No problem."
Houtu agreed without hesitation.
Jade Pure Yuanshi had been formed from Pangu's primordial spirit. If he truly put some effort into it, he could obtain the Nine Revolutions Profound Art himself.
She was not afraid of this method spreading.
Even within the Witch Race, the Nine Revolutions Profound Art was an extremely difficult technique to cultivate. If anyone in the Primordial World truly managed to practice it, they could be considered fated with the method.
Using it as repayment was indeed quite generous.
Without much hesitation,
she condensed a drop of essence blood from her fingertip.
"This contains my insights into the Nine Revolutions Profound Art. Fellow Daoists, you may come to the Witch Race's territory on Mount Buzhou to find me in the future. I will inform my elder brothers of what happened today."
Leaving behind her essence blood,
Houtu departed with ease.
Big Sister is so cool. I love her!
Watching Houtu toss her head and leave in one smooth, effortless motion, Zhou Qingqing cried out inwardly.
Then she saw the essence blood Houtu had left behind sent directly into her Lotus Space.
This was the Nine Revolutions Profound Art that Second Master, who looked down on the First Disciple of the Three Pure Ones, did not want. I'll cultivate it.
An Ancestral Witch's essence blood was good stuff.
Especially essence blood condensed by Ancestral Witch Houtu.
As the Three Pure Ones' only disciple at present, Zhou Qingqing naturally claimed the essence blood for herself.
Just as Zhou Qingqing was secretly rejoicing,
two good friends, Red Cloud Ancestor and Zhen Yuanzi,
as well as the siblings Fuxi and Nuwa, also gathered around.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Upper Pure Tongtian, for intervening and allowing me to discover Daoist Zhunti's scheme."
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Supreme Pure Laozi, for helping my elder brother."
The four innate great divinities suddenly surrounded the Three Pure Ones to offer their thanks, immediately making the innate gods and demons who had yet to leave realize just how popular the Three Pure Ones were.
During the lectures at Purple Cloud Palace,
the three brothers of the Three Pure Ones seemed to have quietly accomplished many great things.
"If you do not mind, Fellow Daoists, you may come to my Five Manor Temple on Mount Longevity to enjoy spiritual fruits together, as repayment for your earlier assistance."
Zhen Yuanzi truly was Red Cloud Ancestor's best buddy. Ginseng Fruits from Five Manor Temple—one of the ten Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Roots of the Primordial World. Just hearing the name made her drool with craving. She had to go.
Just imagining the flavor of those top-grade spiritual fruits made her mouth water~~
"Why not come to my Mount Fengqi first, Fellow Daoists? My younger sister Nuwa has gathered many innate spiritual fruits and brewed Hundred Flowers Brew. It would be perfect for drinking and discussing the Dao."
Wine.
There would even be fruit wine?
The three masters on Mount Kunlun only cared about cultivation and had none of these worldly pleasures. It seemed she could finally be a wine immortal for once.
Go, she absolutely had to go!
"..."
Hearing Zhou Qingqing reveal her gluttonous nature, the Three Pure Ones' emotions churned once more.
Zhou Qingqing was not usually this excited, yet she had become obsessed upon hearing about Ginseng Fruits and Hundred Flowers Brew. It seemed her peaceful life had suppressed her true nature.
Now, it had been completely exposed.
Of course,
the Three Pure Ones naturally could not satisfy all of Zhou Qingqing's demands.
Upper Pure Tongtian raised a sword-like brow, the corner of his lips curving upward as he smiled at Zhen Yuanzi and Red Cloud Ancestor, the pair of "best buddies" inviting them.
"Mount Longevity's Five Manor Temple sounds like an immortal blessed land, and Ginseng Fruits are one of the Primordial World's ten top-grade spiritual roots. If we brothers have the chance, we will certainly pay a visit."
Tongtian was in a good mood. After pausing, he continued,
"Saint's lecture has only just ended. Everyone must be eager to return and cultivate. We can gather again when an opportunity arises."
"The same goes for Fellow Daoists Fuxi and Nuwa. There will be many chances for us to discuss the Dao. For now, let us go our separate ways."
At present,
the Purple Cloud Palace lecture had just ended, and everyone was truly eager to return to their own cultivation grounds. Tongtian did not wish to trouble the fellow Daoists before him over such matters.
Third Master was really overthinking this.
Zhou Qingqing swept her gaze over the group of innate gods and demons gathered around the Three Pure Ones.
After the Purple Cloud Palace lecture, the Innate Gourd Vine should appear on Mount Buzhou. These innate gods and demons before her were all destined to be involved, so even if they separated now, they would gather again before long...
Supreme Pure Laozi's eyes darkened slightly.
He immediately circulated his primordial spirit at full strength to deduce the matter. Sure enough, he discovered an invisible pull coming from Mount Buzhou.
Just as Zhou Qingqing had said, an opportunity had truly appeared on Mount Buzhou.
He gave a light cough.
"Tongtian, there is no need to dissuade our fellow Daoists. You should all have sensed that a spiritual treasure on Mount Buzhou is fated with us. Why not go to Mount Buzhou together?"
Tongtian knew something was wrong the moment he heard Zhou Qingqing's complaint.
Sure enough, Eldest Brother had pulled off that invisible show of superiority.
Though he was not as skilled in deduction as Eldest Brother, he could still repeat Qingqing's words.
Yet in the end, Eldest Brother had beaten him to it.
Even if he was unwilling, he could only accept defeat.
First Master truly calculated without omission; his deductions were unmatched.
Hearing his disciple's praise, Supreme Pure Laozi's old face reddened.
Fortunately, his cultivation and realm were the highest present, and he promptly suppressed the flush.
Upon hearing Supreme Pure Laozi speak,
Fuxi and Zhen Yuanzi, the two most skilled in deduction, respectively employed the innate Eight Trigrams and palm-reading arts. After calculating for some time, they indeed discovered that Fuxi's younger sister Nuwa and Zhen Yuanzi's friend Red Cloud had opportunities awaiting them on Mount Buzhou.
"Fellow Daoist Supreme Pure Laozi's deductions are indeed unmatched. We admire you greatly!"
Under normal circumstances, if innate gods and demons wished to know what was fated with them, they had to wait for a sudden intuition before deducing the reason behind it.
But now,
they had not even reacted yet.
The eldest of the Three Pure Ones, Supreme Pure Laozi, had calmly stated that they had a destined opportunity on Mount Buzhou.
This showed that Supreme Pure Laozi's comprehension of the Great Dao ran far deeper than theirs, making him truly worthy of their admiration.
Fuxi, who had devoted himself especially to the study of the Eight Trigrams, felt this most deeply.
He had thought his research into heavenly secrets and the Eight Trigrams was profound, but only after meeting Supreme Pure Laozi did he learn that there were still those in the Primordial World who stood above him.
Naturally, Supreme Pure Laozi did not lose himself amid the endless flattery.
"Since everyone has such a destined connection, we might as well go to Mount Buzhou together. It can be considered fate."
Supreme Pure Laozi took the lead, riding upon clear qi. The immortals and gods present naturally nodded in agreement, feeling that Supreme Pure Laozi possessed the bearing of a true great master.
