Seeing that Ye Xuan's Primordial Spirit power had already been elevated to the Realm of Quasi-Saint, Daoist Zhunti's face showed a speechless expression. Truly, comparing oneself to others was deadly—he himself possessed only one Three Corpses Becoming Saint Method, yet he was still at a loss on how to cut down the Second Corpse.
However, Ye Xuan held three Supreme Saint Methods in his hands, all of which had been elevated to Quasi-Saint Mid-Stage. As for the Three Corpses Becoming Saint Method, though he had yet to cut down the Evil Corpse, he only needed a single Innate Spiritual Treasure to complete it.
Golden Cicada, standing to the side, wore a stunned expression on his face. No wonder Uncle-Master Zhunti said that by becoming his master's disciple, he was blessed with deep fortune. One person simultaneously cultivating three Supreme Saint Methods—and even taking just one of those Saint Methods—could crush other Innate God-Demons. Once he became a saint, who would still be a match for his master?
Just as Zhunti and the others were staring blankly into the void, Ye Xuan spoke up.
"Second Younger Brother, you have emerged from seclusion at just the right time. This innate spiritual root in my hand has only just ripened, so you are in for a treat. Even I have yet to taste it!"
Ye Xuan waved his hand, and three enormous flat peaches appeared in his palm. These were the Innate Ren Water Peaches, each one exuding a fragrance that seeped into the heart and stirred the soul. A single whiff made one's mouth water uncontrollably.
"Eldest Brother, this is..."
"One of the Ten Great Innate Spiritual Roots, the Innate Ren Water Peach. This supreme innate spiritual root is in Eldest Brother's hands?"
Hearing this, Ye Xuan gave a slight nod. "Indeed, it is one of the Ten Great Innate Spiritual Roots, the Ren Water Peach. I obtained it only by sheer luck."
"Though it is of no use to us, satisfying our taste buds is not a bad thing. Moreover, for our disciples, it can enhance their comprehension of the Great Dao of Water and even open an additional grade when they achieve the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top."
Golden Cicada's face lit up with great joy. His main cultivation path was the Way of Geng Metal. If he could gain insights into the Great Dao of Water, it would bring some benefit to his Golden Great Dao. Furthermore, when he advanced to the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, he could rise another grade, which held a subtle mystery for stepping into the Realm of Quasi-Saint.
With a wave of his hand, Ye Xuan sent two Innate Flat Peaches into the hands of Daoist Zhunti and Golden Cicada.
"Disciple thanks Master!"
Golden Cicada's face beamed with joy. After receiving the peach, he began to savor it directly. He felt a surge of abundant Innate Spiritual Qi flow straight into his limbs and bones, elevating his dharma power to a higher level and carrying a trace of Immortal Qi.
Seeing this, Daoist Zhunti also took a bite, intending to taste its flavor. Though it was one of the Ten Great Innate Spiritual Roots, the Innate Spiritual Qi within it was already quite thin for cultivators like Ye Xuan. Still, sampling the taste was feasible.
"The flavor is truly excellent!"
After tasting it, Daoist Zhunti's eyes lit up.
Ye Xuan nodded slightly beside him. No wonder the Queen Mother in the Heavenly Court held a grand feast specifically for this.
"Eldest Brother, with this innate spiritual root, when our disciples clash with the Eastern living beings in the future, their chances of victory can be somewhat higher."
Daoist Zhunti was overjoyed. Back then, the Devil Ancestor's self-destruction had not only caused countless living beings in the West to perish tragically, reducing the Innate Spiritual Qi to less than one-tenth of its former amount, but it had also left the next generation in the West in a state of discontinuity. Golden Cicada was one of the Five Great Fierce Beasts!
Yet, when he had become Ye Xuan's disciple, he was merely a True Immortal.
As for other living beings, they were likely even worse off. Hearing this, Ye Xuan felt a sense of helplessness. Though he had used the power of the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil to repair some of the Western Spiritual Veins, generating Innate Spiritual Qi would still take time. Within at least ten Yuanhui, it would not catch up to the East's Innate Spiritual Qi.
"Forget it. As long as we become saints, one day the West will prosper. If we do not become saints, it is nothing but empty words!"
Seeing that Golden Cicada's strength was only at the Mystic Immortal Peak, Ye Xuan spoke up.
"Second Younger Brother!"
"I have made some progress on the path of cultivation. How about we discuss the Dao together?"
Hearing this, Daoist Zhunti gave a slight nod.
"Excellent!"
"Golden Cicada, listen carefully as well. It will be of some benefit to your cultivation."
At Ye Xuan's words, Golden Cicada's expression turned serious.
"Yes, Master!"
Ye Xuan nodded, then took out the Ancient Enlightenment Tea Tree and began to expound the Dao. Seeing that Golden Cicada primarily cultivated the Way of Geng Metal, he started with the Golden Great Dao, elaborating on the Way of Five Elements for three thousand years before turning to Daoist Zhunti to expound the supreme Dao.
After the two stopped, Golden Cicada opened his eyes, a golden divine light shining within them.
"Boom!"
Golden Cicada's body trembled, and he surged straight into the Golden Immortal Realm.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan and Daoist Zhunti exchanged a glance and began to expound the Dao of Quasi-Saint. Such a supreme Dao was still somewhat strenuous for Golden Cicada, but he still tried his best to understand some of it. After all, this was the Dao of Quasi-Saint. When he returned, he could slowly ponder it. With the Ancient Enlightenment Tea Tree hanging down endless Wisdom Light, Golden Cicada truly managed to comprehend some of it, a glimmer of enlightenment appearing in his eyes.
His own Dao became clearer. Ten thousand years later, when Ye Xuan and the others finished their Dao discussion, they each entered secluded cultivation once more.
Seeing that he still had some Innate Flat Peaches in his hand, Ye Xuan left a few for Golden Cicada and Daoist Zhunti to use before returning to the Dao Seeking Palace.
Just as Ye Xuan was holding the Jade Disc and about to enter seclusion, an Electronic Sound rang in his ears.
[Ding Dong!]
[Detected that the Demon Emperor and others in the Heavenly Court are forging Star Banners, intending to set up the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Formation. Please choose from the options below.]
[Option One: Hinder the Heavenly Court's forging of the Star Banners. Complete the task to receive half a percent of Space Law!]
[Option Two: Use a borrowed knife to kill. Inform the Twelve Ancestral Witches and let them act. Complete the task to receive the Pangu Inheritance, the Method of Becoming a Saint through Physical Body, and the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Technique!]
[Option Three: Ignore it and let them forge the Star Banners. Complete the task to receive one percent of Sword Law Fragments!]
Hearing the Electronic Sound in his ear, Ye Xuan's face showed a contemplative expression.
The Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Formation relied on three hundred and sixty-five Primordial Stars as the main formation eyes, supplemented by fourteen thousand eight hundred Archaic Stars, driving the endless stars to set up a grand formation.
However, for each star to serve as a formation eye, a spiritual treasure was needed to link all the formation eyes together. If he informed the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the others, this formation would be as good as ruined. Without the Star Banners, the power of the endless stars could not form a grand formation.
Gazing at the Nine Heavens, Ye Xuan's eyes seemed to pierce through the Thirty-Three Heavens, landing on the Demon Emperor, whose face showed a smug expression. He shook his head, his gaze icy cold.
Those who failed to understand the Heavenly Dao's momentum—the more they flaunted their sharpness, the sooner they died. Di Jun and the others did not grasp this truth, which was why they would perish.
Though the Way of Space was good, he would not choose it. He spoke directly.
"Choose the third option: ignore it!"
After Ye Xuan made his choice, another Electronic Sound rang in his ear.
[Ding Dong!]
[Host has chosen to ignore it and let them forge the Star Banners. One percent of Sword Law Fragments is being distributed. Please check it yourself.]
