Another Choice, Fragments of the Way of Destiny!

After Ye Xuan spoke, a hint of surprise couldn't help but appear on Daoist Zhunti's face.

"Eldest Brother means that without using an Innate Supreme Treasure, you can still match the Twelve Ancestral Witches?"

Hearing this, Ye Xuan nodded slightly and said, "I have long been at the Quasi-Saint Mid-Stage, have already severed one corpse, and grasp thirty percent of the Law of Karma."

"Against the Twelve Ancestral Witches, though I cannot crush them, I can at least stand undefeated from the start."

"Even without an Innate Supreme Treasure, there is still a sliver of a winning chance!"

"However, if I had an Innate Supreme Treasure in hand, the Twelve Ancestral Witches would have absolutely no chance of victory."

A gleam of sharp light flashed in Ye Xuan's eyes, and his aura shook the cosmos.

The same Innate Supreme Treasure, in the hands of different people, produced entirely different effects.

Every Innate Supreme Treasure could only unleash its full power in the hands of a Sage.

In Emperor Taiyi's hands, it was like a jewel tarnished by dust; in my own hands, even the Twelve Ancestral Witches would find it difficult to escape.

But although Emperor Taiyi fell short compared to Ye Xuan, he was still one of the Supreme Experts among the Innate God-Demons. As for Di Jiang and the others, even if they joined forces and unleashed a Power of Time and Space, it would be utterly useless against Ye Xuan.

That technique, before they used it, might have posed a slight challenge to Ye Xuan, but now that the Twelve Ancestral Witches had revealed it, it was nothing worth mentioning.

Both were among the supreme Great Daos, but Ye Xuan's attainment in the Way of Karma was far higher. Once they used it, not only would it be completely useless, but it would also cause them to suffer a backlash. Moreover, in Ye Xuan's hands, there was also a Karma-based treasure, which, though already merged into the Three Thousand Heavens, could still be employed.

Once used, the profound mystery of this Karma would be even more formidable.

Hearing this, Daoist Zhunti sucked in another sharp breath of cold air: "Grasping thirty percent of the Way of Karma—this is one of the supreme Great Daos!"

Every supreme Great Dao represented invincibility. With thirty percent of the Way of Karma, among Innate God-Demons of the same realm, basically no one was a match for Ye Xuan, let alone the fact that Ye Xuan was already at Quasi-Saint Mid-Stage. The Twelve Ancestral Witches truly were no match for him.

Looking at Ye Xuan, a hint of envy appeared on Daoist Zhunti's face. He himself was born with the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, but in the Way of Yin-Yang and Five Elements, he had only grasped a superficial layer, about ten to fifteen percent.

The Way of Karma, ranked fifth among the Three Thousand Great Daos, was a supreme Great Dao and would only be more difficult!

Seeing the envy in Zhunti's eyes, Ye Xuan raised his hand, and a beam of spiritual light shot into his Primordial Spirit.

"Eldest Brother, this is..."

"A supreme great divine ability, the Taiyi Wonderful Divine Light. Once perfected, it can suppress even a Sage."

Hearing this, Daoist Zhunti's face lit up with great joy. He immediately examined it, and after finishing, a look of shock appeared in his eyes.

"Using Innate Yin-Yang Qi to separate the Five Elements Qi, merging the power of the Ten Heavenly Stems and Twelve Earthly Branches—such a wondrous supreme technique exists?"

In Daoist Zhunti's hands, there was also a strand of Innate Yin-Yang Five Elements Qi, derived from the innate spiritual root Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree. But like Kong Xuan, after obtaining it, Zhunti had also cultivated it into a divine ability.

The Seven-Colored Divine Light!

Within Yin-Yang and Five Elements, it could brush away all things. Compared to the Five-Colored Divine Light, this ability was somewhat stronger, but it still remained within the scope of the Quasi-Saint realm.

However, this Taiyi Wonderful Divine Light had some use even at the Realm of Sages.

"Excellent!"

Seeing that he had comprehended this supreme great divine ability from the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree, Daoist Zhunti was speechless for a moment. After thinking it over, he spoke again.

"Eldest Brother, how about we engage in a Dao discussion between us?"

Hearing this, Ye Xuan nodded slightly. The other party was born with the innate spiritual root Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and had some understanding of the Way of Yin-Yang and Five Elements.

If he discussed the Way of Five Elements with him, it would be somewhat beneficial for comprehending the Taiyi Wonderful Divine Light. After a moment of thought, Ye Xuan immediately said.

"Excellent!"

Ye Xuan waved his hand, and another innate spiritual root appeared in his grasp—the Enlightenment Tea Tree. As soon as it appeared, it caused endless Wisdom Light to bloom within Daoist Zhunti's Primordial Spirit.

Seeing that his Eldest Brother still possessed such a treasure, Zhunti was once again stunned.

"Eldest Brother, this couldn't be the Ancient Enlightenment Tea Tree, the first innate spiritual root below the Ten Great Innate Spiritual Roots, could it?"

"Yes!"

"Back in the East, it was under this tree that I perfected the Method of Becoming a Sage in Dreams. Only then did I learn it was the Enlightenment Tea Tree. It produces only one hundred and eight leaves per Yuanhui. When you go into Secluded Cultivation, bring some along—it will be of some benefit for comprehending thirty percent of the path to Sagehood."

Hearing this, a look of realization appeared on Daoist Zhunti's face. No wonder, since his return, his Eldest Brother's strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, and he had even grasped the Way of Karma—it was because he had such a treasure.

But thinking of its preciousness, Daoist Zhunti swallowed his saliva and still spoke.

"Eldest Brother, only one hundred and eight leaves per Yuanhui—wouldn't it be more useful if you used them yourself?"

After Daoist Zhunti spoke, Ye Xuan said, "This innate spiritual root has an even better effect. Besides, I still have a pool of Three Light Divine Water. Steeping the leaves in it enhances their effect further. These are just some Innate Rare Treasures; between brothers, there's no need for formality!"

Seeing Ye Xuan say this, Daoist Zhunti had no choice but to shake his head helplessly and sit down cross-legged.

Half a day later, Zhunti was the first to begin preaching, expounding the great principles of the Way of Five Elements.

From his mouth came the Sound of the Great Dao, revealing the wonders of the Five Elements.

"Wood is called bending and straightening, Metal is called following and reforming, Water is called moistening and descending..."

Three thousand years later, Daoist Zhunti finally stopped. A hint of surprise appeared in Ye Xuan's eyes; his understanding of the Way of Five Elements had improved somewhat. After that, Ye Xuan began to expound on the Way of Karma. Another three thousand years passed before Ye Xuan stopped.

When Ye Xuan finished, a look of shock appeared on Zhunti's face.

"This Way of Karma!"

"Eldest Brother, this Way of Karma is too profound. In three thousand years, I haven't even grasped a single superficial layer—it's like reading a heavenly scripture."

Seeing that the other had not grasped it, Ye Xuan could only feel helpless. This person had been nurtured alongside him, with a bond spanning tens of millions of years—his most trusted confidant. If the other could comprehend even a trace of its mystery, he would certainly not hold back.

But the Way of Karma was too difficult. After three thousand years, seeing that the other had not penetrated it, Ye Xuan did not force the matter.

After bidding farewell, Daoist Zhunti went into secluded cultivation. Just as Ye Xuan was about to do the same, an electronic sound rang in his ear.

[Ding Dong!]

[Detected: In the Heavenly Court, the Demon Emperor and others are preparing to order the Dragon Clan to enter the Heavenly Court and seize the power of Immeasurable Luck. Host, please choose from the options below.]

[Option One: Go to the shores of the East Sea, rescue the Dragon Clan members. Complete the task to receive an Innate Spiritual Treasure: twenty-four Sea-Calming Divine Pearls!]

[Option Two: Ignore the matter, let it unfold. Complete the task to receive a Fragment of the Great Dao of Destiny.]

Hearing the electronic sound in his ear once more, Ye Xuan couldn't help but show a contemplative expression. Both options held some use for him, but he had no desire to be drawn into the Great Tribulation. After a moment of thought, he spoke.

"I choose the second one—ignore it."

After Ye Xuan made his choice, another electronic sound entered his ear.

[Ding Dong!]

[Host has chosen: ignore it. One Fragment of the Great Dao of Destiny is being distributed. Please check it yourself, Host.]
