Three Lights Divine Water, Heaven and Earth Fetal Membrane (Seeking Collection, Seeking Follow-up Reads, Seeking Votes!)

After respectfully bowing once more, Lu Yuan took three antique, naturally rustic wooden boxes from his Purple Mansion Ancestral Aperture, the Spirit Platform Secret Realm.

These wooden boxes had been refined from branches of the Tree of Life, and each contained three Fruits of Life.

Though Innate Spiritual Fruits borne by a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Root did little to advance a Great Divine Ability User's cultivation or Daoist practice, they could at least satisfy their appetite.

Moreover, even as congratulatory gifts for Great Divine Ability Users of the same rank, these Innate Spiritual Fruits would be quite presentable.

After all, Great Divine Ability Users were not lonely people. They had disciples and younger generations under their wing, or attendant boys and servants.

Though these Innate Spiritual Fruits did little for their cultivation and Daoist practice, it was different for their disciples, younger generations, attendant boys, and servants. A single Innate Spiritual Fruit was enough to let them shed the mortal body and exchange the marrow!

As thoughts turned in his heart, Lu Yuan knew that if he offered the Innate Spiritual Treasures in his possession as gifts for entering the sect, then with the pride in the hearts of Pangu Sanqing, they naturally would not be willing to accept them.

Otherwise, would Pangu Sanqing not be suspected of coveting the treasures of a disciple under their sect? If word got out, would Great Divine Ability Users of the same rank throughout the Primordial World not laugh their teeth out?

And where would that leave the dignity of Pangu's Orthodox Lineage?

But Innate Spiritual Fruits were different. They were presentable enough to display Lu Yuan's sincere intentions, while also avoiding such suspicions and dispelling the concerns in the hearts of the Three Pure Ones.

Even if word spread, it would become a fine tale. Even the Great Divine Ability Users of the Primordial World could only envy the Three Pure Ones for having a disciple like Lu Yuan with such a "sincere heart."

With these thoughts flashing through his mind, Lu Yuan raised the three wooden boxes and said earnestly, "To be able to enter under Pangu Sanqing today, this disciple feels incomparably honored. Eldest Martial Uncle, Second Martial Uncle, Master, these are Innate Spiritual Fruits treasured by this disciple. They may be considered a small token of my heart; I ask the three elders to kindly accept them."

"Oh, Innate Spiritual Fruits?"

A trace of surprise appeared on Yuqing Yuanshi Daoist's face. Looking at Lu Yuan, he slightly smiled. "Qingxuanzi, your Dao fortune runs deep, and your destiny is extraordinary. First an Innate Spiritual Treasure, then an Innate Spiritual Root—your wealth is nearly on par with that of a Great Divine Ability User!"

Lu Yuan scratched his head and gave an honest smile. "Second Martial Uncle jests. How could this disciple compare with a Great Divine Ability User...?"

He then respectfully presented the three wooden boxes to the Three Pure Ones, one by one.

Sure enough, just as Lu Yuan had expected, the Three Pure Ones readily accepted this gift for entering the sect without refusing it.

The instant they received the boxes, the Three Pure Ones sensed a thread of pure innate power. Upon opening them, three emerald-green Innate Spiritual Fruits came into view.

Seeing the rich life Dao charm contained within the Innate Spiritual Fruits, the three revealed slight surprise and were deeply moved. Qingxuanzi actually possessed a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Root!

One had to know that even among Pangu Sanqing, only Yuqing Yuanshi Daoist had, by a fortunate coincidence while traveling through the Primordial World, obtained a Huangzhong Li.

Much like the Three Pure Ones themselves, more than ninety percent of the Great Divine Ability Users in the Primordial World had no fate with Top-grade Innate Spiritual Roots.

"Eldest Martial Uncle, Second Martial Uncle, Master, these Life Spirit Fruits are borne by the Innate Spiritual Root, the Tree of Life. Each epoch contains twelve Kalpas, yet it only produces forty-eight Fruits of Life! From now on, every twelve Kalpas, this disciple will pluck the freshest Innate Spiritual Fruits and let the three seniors have the first taste..."

Seeing the surprise on the faces of the Three Pure Ones, Lu Yuan hurriedly stepped forward to explain the origins of the Tree of Life.

After introducing the Innate Spiritual Root, the Tree of Life, he did not forget to curry favor with the Three Pure Ones, shamelessly making an agreement to deliver fruits every epoch.

After all, the Three Pure Ones had yet to prove the Dao of Hunyuan and obtain the Saint's Dao Fruit. This was precisely his chance to deepen his bond with them.

Once the three became Heavenly Dao Saints in the future, their Primordial Spirit Dao Fruits would merge with the Heavenly Dao. Their eyes would behold measureless karma, they would command boundless wonders of the Dao, and every gesture would carry the majesty of the Heavenly Dao.

Even their disciples would be cowed by the oppressive majesty of the Heavenly Dao, making it difficult for them to take the initiative to draw close to Saints.

Taking advantage of this rare window of opportunity, Lu Yuan naturally had to curry favor with the Three Pure Ones and deepen his standing in their hearts.

Once the three became Saints, never mind how many benefits they might grant him—at the very least, his two martial uncles would presumably be too embarrassed to scheme against him.

As thoughts spun through Lu Yuan's mind, Shangqing Tongtian Daoist revealed a trace of delight, feeling greatly gratified.

With a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Root to suppress his fate, a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure to protect him, and his own guidance on top of that, Qingxuanzi had hope of attaining the Great Dao!

"Qingxuanzi, you are quite filial for one of the younger generation. This contains the transformations of the Profound Yellow Great Dao within the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, along with a thread of this martial uncle's insights into the Profound Yellow Dao. I see that what you cultivate is the Profound Yellow Great Dao; I hope this will be of help to you..."

Having received Lu Yuan's gift, Grand Pure Daoist was extremely pleased and greatly approved of his attitude of honoring his master and respecting the Dao.

With a flick of his finger, he condensed a violet jade slip and tossed it to Lu Yuan.

"Many thanks for Eldest Martial Uncle's reward!"

Lu Yuan accepted the violet jade slip and solemnly put it away, then respectfully bowed to Grand Pure Daoist.

To Lu Yuan, Grand Pure Daoist's reward was worth even more than an Innate Spiritual Treasure.

He had already made up his mind to regard the Profound Yellow Great Dao as his primary Great Dao.

There were only a few Innate Spiritual Treasures born between Heaven and Earth in response to the Profound Yellow Great Dao, and each corresponded to a facet of Heaven and Earth's evolution under that Great Dao.

The Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda in Grand Pure Daoist's possession was the Innate Spiritual Treasure with the highest status in the Primordial World's Profound Yellow lineage.

Even the Profound Yellow World-Generating Bead in Lu Yuan's hands was inferior by a notch.

Though both were Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures with forty-eight Innate Divine Prohibitions, the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda had received the merit of opening Heaven and was a supreme merit treasure.

The wondrous realm of the Great Dao contained within the Profound Yellow Great Dao transformations inside the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda was of immeasurable significance to Lu Yuan!

Not to mention that the violet jade slip also contained a thread of Grand Pure Daoist's insights into the Profound Yellow Great Dao!

Beside him, Yuqing Yuanshi Daoist looked at Lu Yuan with a smile. "Since Eldest Brother has rewarded you, if I, your Second Martial Uncle, do not bring out something good, I will not be able to answer to your Master! Qingxuanzi, your wealth is abundant, with an Innate Spiritual Treasure and an Innate Spiritual Root by your side, so your Second Martial Uncle will not reward you with a treasure. This is the divine ability Three Lights Divine Water. Once you cultivate it to the major accomplishment realm, you will be able to gather the power of the sun, moon, and stars, and condense Three Lights Divine Water!"

After saying this, Yuqing Yuanshi Daoist pointed a finger, condensed a golden jade slip, and tossed it to Lu Yuan.

"This is a bottle of 'Three Lights Divine Water.' Take it and use it first. The 'Three Lights Divine Water' divine ability cannot be mastered overnight..."

Perhaps feeling that rewarding him with a divine ability and secret art was somewhat beneath his dignity, Yuqing Yuanshi Daoist took out another white jade bottle and tossed it to him.

Having obtained the 'Three Lights Divine Water' divine ability and a bottle of 'Three Lights Divine Water,' Lu Yuan was thrilled. Becoming a disciple of Sanqing truly was a heaven-sent opportunity. He had only just entered the sect, yet he had already received so many good things.

One had to know that the 'Three Lights Divine Water' was among the foremost divine treasures Between Heaven and Earth. When separated, the golden Sunlight Divine Water could grind away flesh, blood, sinews, and bones; the silver Moonlight Divine Water could corrode the Primordial Spirit and soul; the purple Starlight Divine Water could devour and dissolve true spirits and divine consciousness.

It was a peerless divine means for fighting and exterminating enemies!

When combined into one, it could also serve as a sacred medicine capable of curing a hundred poisons and a hundred ailments, dispelling all toxins and healing every wound and disease—even restoring flesh to bare bones and reviving the dead.

It was said that this 'Three Lights Divine Water' was also exceptionally effective at nourishing and nurturing Innate Spiritual Roots. During the Journey to the West Tribulation, the Ginseng Fruit Tree that Sun Wukong, the Child of Destiny, had toppled was revived by this very Three Lights Divine Water.

"Your Eldest Martial Uncle and Second Martial Uncle have both bestowed treasures upon you, so as your master, I naturally cannot be left behind.

"Qingxuanzi, the Innate Spiritual Treasures and Innate Spiritual Roots on you are already enough for your use, so I will not give you such treasures.

"This is a Heaven and Earth Fetal Membrane. It contains the Dao of Mysterious Yellow evolution. Take it and refine it with care; perhaps you may refine it into a Destiny Treasure of the Innate Spiritual Treasure grade."

Having said this, Shangqing Tongtian Daoist's heart suddenly trembled. Qingxuanzi was only the third personal disciple, yet he was already nearly unable to afford the rewards. It seemed he could not accept too many personal disciples in the future!

Though he had traveled across the primordial wilderness and accumulated considerable wealth, he only possessed a few Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures and High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.

As for Mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures and Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, although he had quite a few in his possession, bestowing them upon personal disciples would be somewhat beneath his dignity. Did Pangu's Orthodox Lineage no longer need its face?

"Thank you, Master, for the reward!"

Looking at the Heaven and Earth Fetal Membrane before him, its color Mysterious Yellow, shaped like a fetal membrane and covered in folds and patterns, emanating a profound and weighty Origin Aura, Lu Yuan's face was filled with gratitude.
