Red Flower, White Lotus Root, Green Lotus Leaf: Three Pure Ones Gain Spirit Treasures

On Kunlun Mountain, Laozi, Yuanshi, and Tongtian exchanged a smile. "Second Brother, Third Brother, our opportunity has emerged."

Yuanshi nodded. "It seems to be in the cave where we transformed back then."

Tongtian nodded. "Indeed. Shall we go together?" Afterward, the three brothers arrived at a cave in Buzhou Mountain.

Yuanshi's eyes went straight at the sight. "The Thirty-Six Grade Creation Green Lotus. As expected, it was destined for the three of us brothers." As he spoke, the Thirty-Six Grade Creation Green Lotus had already begun to disintegrate. After all, under the Heavenly Dao, this treasure could not be allowed to remain in the world. The three brothers, Taishang, received a sudden revelation and understood this principle.

Thus, Yuanshi called out, "Red Flower."

The lotus flower flew out and transformed into the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi.

Laozi nodded. "White Lotus Root." The Lotus Root transformed and became the Taiyi Fly Whisk.

Tongtian looked at the lotus leaf with great fondness and called out, "Green Lotus Leaf."

The lotus leaf floated out and transformed into a treasured sword. Tongtian caught the sword and saw the words "Qingping" engraved on its hilt.

Finally, the lotus stem turned into a crooked cane. Yuanshi and Tongtian said at the same time, "Let's leave this cane to Eldest Brother. After all, we're both relatively young and have no need for a walking stick."

Laozi's expression darkened. "The times of our births were not far apart. I simply prefer to appear in the form of an old man. Don't make fun of your brother. By the way, Tongtian, the Taiyi Fly Whisk is also a High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure. Give it to Xuanxiao for self-defense in the future. It will represent that we will always be one family. Buzhou Mountain is unsafe now, so we shouldn't stay long. Let's return to Kunlun Mountain first."

Thus, the brothers happily returned to Kunlun Mountain. However, just after they arrived back at the thatched cottage, they encountered something unpleasant. It turned out that Dong Wanggong had received Jieyin and Zhunti as followers and had become conceited. Believing that he now had eight Grand Unity Golden Immortals under his command and could expand his forces with himself included, he brought the Immortal Court's troops to recruit the Three Pure Ones.

Before Kunlun Mountain, Dong Wanggong called out loudly, "Where are the Three Pure Ones, fellow Daoists? I am Dong Wanggong, personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor as the Head of Male Immortals. I have come especially to invite you three to join the Immortal Court and work together on great matters."

Inside the thatched cottage, Laozi drawled, "What if the three of us brothers don't wish to join the Immortal Court? What will you do then?"

Dong Wanggong said, "Then I'm afraid I'll have no choice but to offend you. After all, I was personally appointed by the Dao Ancestor to rule the male immortals of the Primordial Wilderness. As the three of you are the Dao Ancestor's Personal Disciples, surely you won't go against the Dao Ancestor's wishes, will you?"

Yuanshi said, "You? Do you really think you're worthy of meddling in our brothers' affairs? A cat that has found power thinks itself mightier than a tiger."

Dong Wanggong's face stiffened. "How about we follow the rules of the Primordial Wilderness? The stronger party wins. What do you say?"

Laozi glanced at his two younger brothers. "How about we teach Dong Wanggong a lesson together? If Teacher asks, we can say that he brought his people to our door. It wasn't us causing trouble for the Immortal Court."

With Tongtian's hot temper, how could he think it over for long? He immediately took the Qingping Sword and walked outside the thatched cottage, muttering as he went, "Eldest Brother is being far too cautious. In the Primordial Wilderness, fighting is always commonplace. Teacher shouldn't interfere, right?"

Yuanshi also wore a dark expression as he left the thatched cottage alongside Laozi. Seeing the troops the Immortal Court had brought this time, he said directly, "So that's how it is. I was wondering how you, Dong Wanggong, dared to cause trouble for us. It turns out those two useless fellows from the West have pledged themselves to you."

Zhunti's expression darkened. "Brother Yuanshi, why must you insult people?"

Tongtian said, "You're nothing more than a Bodhi Tree that transformed. Second Brother, leave Jieyin and Zhunti to me."

Yuanshi nodded. "Very well. Eldest Brother, will you deal with Dong Wanggong or the other six early-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal experts from the Immortal Court?"

Laozi said, "Dong Wanggong is also at the Peak Grand Unity level, so he won't be easy to deal with. I'll handle him. Leave those early-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortals to Second Brother."

Yuanshi nodded, offered up the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, and hurled it over, directly knocking one person unconscious. He then formed a hand seal and pointed. "Jade Purity Divine Thunder!" Under the barrage of thunder techniques, those Grand Unity Golden Immortals could only defend themselves and had no strength to retaliate.

On the other side, Laozi wielded his crooked cane and engaged in a fierce battle with Dong Wanggong's Dragon Head Crutch. Watching both sides fight with canes was quite a spectacle.

Before long, Laozi and Dong Wanggong's battle reached a fever pitch. Laozi's crooked cane and the Dragon Head Crutch collided nonstop, producing deafening sounds. Laozi held a slight advantage. His cane appeared soft, yet it carried powerful, unyielding force, constantly suppressing Dong Wanggong's attacks.

But Dong Wanggong was not an opponent who could easily be defeated, either. His Dragon Head Crutch was engraved with a dragon design, and every swing seemed to make a dragon breathe fire from its mouth, leaving others with no way to defend. The two fought with extraordinary ferocity, creating a spectacular scene.

For a time, neither side could gain the upper hand. Although Laozi held a slight advantage, Dong Wanggong was also a Peak Grand Unity Golden Immortal expert. In the short term, it was still difficult to determine a victor.
