"Alright, that old thief Hongjun, Master will deal with him!"
"Including the Heavenly Dao of this Primordial World, which is extremely insidious, Master won't let it off either!"
"You don't need to be angry!"
With that, Zhou Xuan looked up at the sky. Lightning seemed to flash in his dark pupils, his gaze sharp as a sword, piercing the endless firmament.
The world seemed to tremble at that moment. The clouds rolled violently, and muffled thunder rumbled.
Hearing that Master would deal with the Heavenly Dao as well!
Sun Wukong and Zhao Gongming exchanged glances, both gasping in shock. Their scalps tingled, yet an irrepressible heat and wildness surged within their spines!
In an instant, this fighting spirit surged like a tide in their hearts, burning through their limbs and bones.
"Master wants to fight! Your disciple will follow Master!"
"So what if it's the Heavenly Dao? When Master attained the Dao, heaven and earth didn't even exist yet!"
Their eyes blazed, and their voices were firm and resonant.
The once high and mighty Heavenly Dao and Old Ancestor Hongjun had now become their prey – all because the one standing before them was already an invincible and omnipotent true god in their hearts.
"Hahaha!"
Seeing this, Zhou Xuan chuckled, a hint of doting and teasing flashing in his eyes. He said loudly:
"You two, stop flattering your Master! Where was I just now?"
Zhao Gongming quickly bowed respectfully and replied:
"Master finished talking about the Jade Disk of Creation, and now it's time to talk about the other four Chaos Supreme Treasures."
"Right!"
Zhou Xuan nodded with satisfaction, waved his sleeve gently, stirring up a breeze, and said with a smile:
"Next, let's talk about the Sky-Opening Axe and the Earth-Splitting Chisel. These two treasures were borrowed by that brat Pangu."
He slowly raised his hand, as if parting the mists of endless time and space, his gaze distant, seemingly seeing the vast darkness before Chaos had separated.
"Back then, Master slept in Chaos for countless years. During this time, Chaos Black Iron fell and happened to land on Master. Nurtured by Master's essence, after who knows how many years, this Chaos Black Iron finally gave birth to sentience and became a supreme treasure."
"At that time, Pangu had just been born and was still a naive little brat. The first thing he saw when he opened his eyes was this piece of black iron. He fell in love with it at first sight, grinned, bowed three times to Master, and then excitedly carried the black iron away!"
"Later, Pangu used this black iron to forge two magical treasures..."
Hearing this, Zhao Gongming's heart trembled violently, and he quickly asked:
"Master, are these two magical treasures the Sky-Opening Axe and the Earth-Splitting Chisel?"
Zhou Xuan smiled and nodded: "Indeed. But that kid Pangu also took a lotus flower from above Master's head!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gongming's eyelids twitched, his throat tightened, and he blurted out with wide eyes:
"Master, the lotus flower you're talking about... couldn't it be the legendary Chaos Green Lotus?"
Zhou Xuan raised an eyebrow, a hint of helplessness and self-satisfaction in his expression, and slowly nodded:
"Yes, it is the Chaos Green Lotus."
His tone was casual, yet it carried an undeniable arrogance:
"In the beginning, the Chaos Green Lotus was merely the first lotus seed born when Chaos first opened. It accidentally fell onto Master's hair, using Master's dandruff as nourishment. It slowly took root and sprouted, absorbing the essence of Chaos. After countless epochs, it finally bloomed and bore fruit, transforming into the Chaos Green Lotus."
"Pangu saw that this Chaos Green Lotus was exceptionally spiritual and beautiful, and he coveted it greatly. He broke it off on the spot and took it away!"
As he spoke, Zhou Xuan shook his head and chuckled, his brows carrying a hint of faint nostalgia for the past.
Listening to this almost unverifiable secret history of Chaos, Zhao Gongming and Sun Wukong were both astonished and awestruck. Countless ancient scenes flashed through their minds, yet they could never imagine the sleeping figure in the endless darkness coexisting with the Chaos Green Lotus.
These were the most secret foundations of heaven and earth!
After all, heaven and earth had not yet opened, and the Primordial World had not yet been formed. How could their juniors possibly know even the slightest clue?
Zhao Gongming took a deep breath and said with emotion:
"So, the Chaos Green Lotus, the Sky-Opening Axe, the Earth-Splitting Chisel, and the Jade Disk of Creation all originated from Master!"
His voice was low, but his tone carried deep reverence:
"If we trace it back like this, almost all the Innate Spirit Treasures, Innate Supreme Treasures, and even the natal magical treasures of the various Saints in the current Primordial World can be said to have originated from Master!"
Hearing this, Sun Wukong's simian eyes lit up, his dark pupils seeming to ignite with flames. He clenched the Chaos Demon Ape Cudgel tightly and said gruffly:
"If that's the case, since these treasures originated from Master, then they are the treasures of our Ling Xuan Sect! And since they are ours, I, Old Sun, as the First Disciple of the Ling Xuan Sect, have the obligation to get them back one by one!"
With that, he straightened his back, flicked his tail, and his voice boomed like a bell:
"Master, I understand! I, Old Sun, will cultivate diligently. When my strength is sufficient in the future, I will definitely travel through all the heavens and find those Saints one by one to get back our Ling Xuan Sect's treasures!"
After speaking, his gaze was as firm as stone, and he lightly struck the Chaos Demon Ape Cudgel on the ground, making a clanging sound, like war drums echoing in the distance.
Hearing this, Zhou Xuan smiled and nodded, his gaze lingering on Sun Wukong for a moment, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.
This monkey's comprehension ability was indeed top-notch!
However, Zhao Gongming touched his nose, gave a wry smile, and muttered softly:
"Eldest Brother... these treasures have been with those Saints for countless ages. How could they be willing to return them?"
Sun Wukong heard this and chuckled, his fangs slightly bared, his tone sinister:
"Not return them? Old Sun isn't one to be trifled with! If they're unwilling to part with them, then I'll let them see just how big and hard Old Sun's staff is! I guarantee I'll make them cry and beg for mercy!"
As his voice fell, Zhao Gongming shivered all over, his expression strange, and he couldn't help but mutter softly, "Eldest Brother... I always feel like you're driving, but I have no proof..."
Sun Wukong couldn't be bothered with him. He shook his fur and turned his gaze back to Zhou Xuan, urging loudly:
"Master, you haven't told us about the remaining Chaos Beads yet!"
Seeing this, Zhou Xuan merely shrugged helplessly, a hint of teasing in his expression:
"The Chaos Beads... there's actually not much to tell. They were just a gallstone inside your Master."
As he spoke, his tone was light, yet it sent shockwaves through their hearts:
"Your Master absorbed countless Primordial Chaos Origin energy, which condensed into a gallstone within my body. Later, when your Master proved himself and became a Saint, this gallstone was forced out of my body and scattered into Chaos, lost to the world ever since."
Hiss--!
Upon hearing this, both Zhao Gongming and Sun Wukong gasped, exchanging glances, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
"Heavens, the Chaos Bead, a legendary and mysterious Chaos Supreme Treasure that countless gods and demons fought bloody battles over, was actually just a gallstone from Master's body!"
"Too formidable... so the Chaos Bead was something Master 'expelled'!"
Zhou Xuan laughed heartily, waving his hand, his sleeves flying, his voice like rolling thunder:
"Alright, alright, now you both know the origins of the five great Chaos Supreme Treasures, right?"
"We do!"
The two exchanged a look, their hearts churning. They bowed in unison, their voices ringing out like clashing metal.
