Li Xuan watched the winged copper coin slowly fluttering before him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Compared to the shabby spiritual treasures the system had given him after his previous choice—things like the Fire-Tipped Spear, the White Jade Ring, or even the Jade Pure Bottle—
this time, the system had finally randomly handed him something good!
The Treasure-Dropping Golden Coin!
Li Xuan gleefully reached out his hand, and the Treasure-Dropping Golden Coin obediently landed in his palm.
Don't underestimate it just because it's only an Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Don't think it's useless or single-function, making it a chicken rib of a magic treasure.
It's a heaven-defying item capable of dropping even Innate Supreme Treasures!
It almost counters all magic treasures except for weapon-type ones!
He just didn't know if it could drop a Primordial Supreme Treasure...
Li Xuan cheerfully brought the treasure coin up to his eyes, examined it carefully for a moment, and then tucked it securely against his body.
This thing would definitely come in handy later.
Then, Li Xuan took a deep breath, gradually steadied his mind, and began to enter meditation again.
Fifty thousand years of tenfold cultivation speed—he couldn't afford to waste that.
In the Primordial Wilderness, years were unrecorded; time itself was too elusive.
In the western Primordial Wilderness, after several thousand years, the ocean that would eventually split the eastern and western lands was already taking its initial shape.
Still, the land hadn't completely broken apart yet, so many places in the Eastern and Western Continents remained directly connected.
As for the entire western Primordial Wilderness—what would later become the Western Ox Continent—it was now barren of spiritual energy, covered in deserts.
Scorching heat, searing poison, and silence had become the norm here.
Only scattered oases could sustain life...
Thus, most of the beings fortunate enough to survive the aftermath of that great battle and the self-destruction had begun migrating eastward and southward.
The southeastern Primordial Wilderness lands grew increasingly prosperous as a result.
Moreover, because the Primordial Wilderness had fully matured, the most terrifying, violent, and surging batch of primordial beings—the strongest of the innate creatures—had finally begun to be born!
The Three Pure Ones...
The Two Sages of the West...
The Twelve Ancestral Witches...
Di Jun and Tai Yi... Nuwa and Fuxi...
Hong Yun... Zhen Yuanzi...
Ming He... Kun Peng... countless others!
Li Xuan knew all this but paid it no mind.
Because these powerful beings had nothing to do with him.
Another twenty thousand years passed.
Under tenfold cultivation speed, Li Xuan's realm began to loosen.
Then, he finally broke through that step!
Boom!
That day, the sky suddenly changed.
Infinite purple clouds howled in.
Li Xuan opened his eyes and looked at the sky.
Pointing at the purple clouds, he laughed heartily: "Hey! Old friend! Haven't seen you for over a hundred thousand years! Miss me!?"
The purple clouds suddenly rumbled.
As if in response.
I've missed you to death!
A pure purple Tribulation Cloud, this time only ten thousand miles in scope.
Much smaller than the previous black clouds that stretched millions of miles.
But the terrifying might within it.
Was countless times greater than the previous tribulation clouds!
As the Purple Firmament Divine Thunder flickered, It even shattered the void!
Cracking the sky with various spiderweb-like black patterns.
Still the same old story.
For normal Primordial Beings, Golden Immortal advancing to Primordial Unity Golden Immortal has no tribulation.
Only when a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal breaks through to Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal
Does the Six-Nine Tribulation descend.
Then, when a Golden Immortal of the Origin breaks through to Quasi-Saint, The Nine-Nine Tribulation arrives.
But all these principles
Made no sense when it came to Li Xuan.
Now he was merely breaking through to Primordial Unity Golden Immortal.
Yet looking at those sky-filling purple clouds and Purple Firmament Divine Thunder, This was simply the Nine-Nine Tribulation, moved here wholesale!
"Barefaced targeting..."
Li Xuan sighed, but then chuckled: "But so what?"
Boom!
The ten-thousand-mile purple Tribulation Cloud in the sky didn't waste words.
Once formed, it exploded with a single roar.
Nine streaks of purple lightning, ten thousand feet long and as thick as a bucket, instantly tore through the void.
Carrying boundless, terrifying killing intent, they descended!
The three-thousand-mile mist formed by Mount Taixuan's Illusory Realm was instantly dispelled by more than half.
The Purple Firmament Divine Thunder arrived directly above Li Xuan's head!
The Thirty-Six Grade Creation Green Lotus Platform manifested at once.
Its thirty-six lotus petals moved as if alive, closing in.
Wrapping Li Xuan within!
This time, it wasn't a thin protective barrier!
Clearly, this Thirty-Six Grade Creation Green Lotus Platform
Had also begun to defend in earnest!
Such a great tribulation!
Utterly terrifying!
For a moment, Li Xuan's brows rose, and his mind tensed.
Nine bolts of tribulation lightning landed directly on the lotus petals!
Mount Taixuan trembled at once!
The Thirty-Six Grade Creation Green Lotus Platform swayed slightly.
The nine bolts of Purple Firmament Divine Thunder blasted the void to pieces.
But it couldn't tear the Lotus Platform apart.
Instead, it had quite a bit absorbed by the Lotus Platform.
The Lotus Platform was even tinged with a faint purple glow.
Li Xuan sat cross-legged inside the platform, exhaled, and finally felt his heart settle.
It seemed the Thirty-Six Grade Creation Green Lotus Platform could defend against it.
After all, it was an Innate Supreme Treasure, transformed from the Primordial Green Lotus Platform.
A mere Purple Firmament Divine Thunder, just a drizzle.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
Nine bolts! Nine more! Another nine!
The Tribulation Cloud seemed to have gone mad, giving Li Xuan not a single moment to catch his breath!
Eighty-one bolts of Purple Firmament Divine Thunder struck without pause!
In just two breaths, they were all spent!
At the peak of Mount Taixuan, the Thirty-Six Grade Creation Green Lotus Platform faintly emitted white smoke.
Its entire body glowed with a soft purple light.
It seemed it had indeed absorbed quite a bit of the Purple Firmament Divine Thunder's power.
And after the Tribulation Cloud finished its barrage, it didn't bother checking if it had any effect.
It simply and cleanly withdrew.
In moments, it dispersed completely.
The world between heaven and earth returned to clarity.
The Lotus Platform slowly opened, revealing Li Qing's mysterious figure.
"A mere tribulation, how could it trouble me? Ha, ha, ha, ha~..."
Li Xuan wore a face of profound mystery, like one constipated, as he looked up at the sky and sighed lightly.
Then, he chuckled softly and slowly extended his hand.
A burst of Samadhi True Fire instantly appeared in his palm!
Primordial Unity Golden Immortal! Samadhi self-formed!
But Li Xuan's Samadhi True Fire
seemed somewhat different from the Samadhi True Fire of other Primordial Unity Golden Immortals.
Because his Samadhi True Fire
was clearly mixed with a rich purple hue!
"What is this called..."
Li Xuan looked at the flame, also quite puzzled.
He muttered to himself in surprise, "Could it be Four-Flavor True Fire? Never heard of such a thing..."
After thinking for a while, Li Xuan could only attribute the purple to the Heavenly Dao Primordial Violet Qi.
It seemed it was because he had suppressed and refined five strands of Heavenly Dao Primordial Violet Qi within himself.
So the Samadhi True Fire he unleashed had also mutated somewhat.
Shaking his head, Li Xuan waved his hand.
The Samadhi True Fire vanished without a trace.
He sat cross-legged again.
Ten-thousand-fold cultivation for fifty thousand years, with twenty thousand still left—he couldn't waste it...
Li Xuan closed his eyes once more, continuing to comprehend the Great Profound Dao.
Though he had now stepped into the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm, his understanding of the Great Profound Dao felt like a single drop in the vast ocean.
Ahead lay an immeasurably broad path, one he needed to comprehend bit by bit.
But barely a quarter of an incense stick after closing his eyes, Li Xuan suddenly snapped them open again, turning his head slightly toward the southern direction.
Under his perception, a powerful, no, an extremely powerful aura
was heading straight for him!
And that aura was very unfamiliar, definitely not Kong Xuan.
Li Xuan's brow furrowed slightly.
His relaxed, calm expression took on a trace of gravity.
Who would come to a barren place like Mount Taixuan?
Could it be that they were drawn by the commotion of his tribulation?
The aura was so powerful—at the very least, a Golden Immortal of the Origin.
"I don't seek trouble... but... I'm not afraid of it either. I hope you're not here to pick a fight... otherwise... hmph!"
Li Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly.
A faint killing intent slowly emanated from his body.
His gaze turned cold as he looked toward the distant south.
