Discussing the Dao with the Three Pure Ones, the Innate Banana Tree

Several people flew towards Kunlun Mountain with different thoughts in mind.

The closer they got to the summit, the more concentrated the spiritual energy became, more than double that of Mount Sumeru, which was currently recovering.

The Three Pure Ones envied Randeng's rapid cultivation advancement; how could he not envy the Three Pure Ones for having such a top-tier Dojo from the moment they were born?

Approaching the summit, a magnificent great hall appeared in Randeng's eyes. The palace was built against the mountain, rising in layers, with white jade for steps, dark jade for walls, and purple-gold for pillars. The beams and pillars were inscribed with Innate runes, subtly revealing the forms of the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and plants. Every line secretly resonated with the Great Dao. The plaque in the center was inscribed with the three characters "Three Pure Ones Palace" in Dao script.

Randeng immediately decided that Mount Sumeru would be renovated to this standard in the future.

Tongtian chuckled, knowing that his friend's penchant for opulent and grand Dojos had struck again.

"Fellow Daoist, if you like it, why not stay here in Kunlun for a while?"

Randeng shook his head, "I am no longer alone. A large group from the West is waiting for me to return."

Upon entering the Three Pure Ones Palace, they all took their seats on cushions.

Randeng took out three white jade boxes from his Sky-Measuring Ruler space. Each box contained about two hundred Enlightenment Tea Leaves. He handed them to the Three Pure Ones, "This is my first visit, so I've brought these Enlightenment Tea Leaves. They are quite beneficial for cultivation. Please accept them as a token of my regard."

As they opened the jade boxes, a fresh fragrance wafted out, and all three felt their Spiritual Platforms clear slightly.

"Fellow Daoist, could this be the supreme Innate Spiritual Root, the Innate Enlightenment Tea Tree!"

This time, it was Taishang who spoke. The Three Pure Ones had also searched for the Enlightenment Tea Tree but had found no clues. After all, it was an Innate Spiritual Root that could aid cultivation, beneficial to any Innate Divine Saint cultivating any law.

"It is indeed the Enlightenment Tea Tree. I discovered it on an immortal mountain on my way to Kunlun."

Randeng did not elaborate on how he found it, only saying that he had a feeling and discovered it by chance.

His foresight and precognition were his greatest secrets.

"Fellow Daoist is truly blessed with good fortune."

Taishang's eyes were deep as he cast a meaningful glance at Randeng. If it came to fortune, who among the Innate Divine Saints had more than the Three Pure Ones?

Randeng took out the tea set and, following the same procedure, brewed a pot of Enlightenment Tea for the Three Pure Ones.

The Three Pure Ones, in turn, each took out the spiritual fruits they had treasured.

Although the Three Pure Ones possessed many Spiritual Treasures and Spiritual Roots, this was their first time drinking the Enlightenment Tea.

It wasn't until they tasted it that they realized how precious Randeng's welcome gift was.

After all, comprehending laws was the key to the cultivation of Innate Divine Saints.

"Fellow Daoist, this Enlightenment Tea is too precious. As this is your first visit to our Kunlun Mountain, we should be the ones hosting you."

Yuanshi felt a bit embarrassed. They had invited Randeng to visit, yet they had accepted his Enlightenment Tea.

It was Tongtian who smoothed things over, "Second Brother, can't we visit Fellow Daoist Randeng in the West another time? Besides, aren't you already prepared to discuss the Way of Artifact Refining with Fellow Daoist Randeng?"

Yuanshi then remembered the main business and quickly laid out the Houtian Spiritual Treasures he had refined.

Randeng picked up one of the sword-shaped spiritual treasures to examine it. It had sixteen restrictions within, classifying it as a Mid-grade Houtian Spiritual Treasure.

Randeng then produced a spiritual treasure that imitated the Vajra Pestle. It contained eighteen restrictions and also possessed the original Vajra Pestle's divine ability to break formations.

Yuanshi took it and showed a look of surprise. He had originally thought Randeng's artifact refining skills were at most on par with his own, as he had been studying the Way of Artifact Refining since his emergence.

The four then began discussing the Dao, enhanced by the Enlightenment Tea. For a time, various laws and Dao rhymes permeated the Three Pure Ones Palace. When they got excited, they would even unleash their Spiritual Treasures to display them.

Afterward, they began discussing the Dao arts each of them excelled at.

Randeng and Yuanshi primarily discussed the Way of Artifact Refining, while Tongtian and Taishang listened from the side. Then, Tongtian explained the Way of Formations, and Randeng could occasionally interject. Finally, Taishang explained his Way of Alchemy, while the other three could only learn with longing.

At this point, Taishang's Alchemy already incorporated his understanding of the Yin-Yang Dao. Randeng guessed that the Golden Core Great Dao he would later pass on to humanity was likely taking shape at this time.

After this discourse on the Dao, Randeng's Annihilation Law finally reached sixty-one percent, and his Law of Earth reached thirty-four percent.

The Enlightenment Tea also played a part in this. All four felt that this discussion on the Dao had yielded more than their usual gains.

A thousand years later, their discussion on the Dao concluded. Randeng then proposed that he planned to travel to Buzhou Mountain and asked if the Three Pure Ones would accompany him.

This was because Buzhou Mountain was rich in opportunities, with top-tier Spiritual Treasures and Spiritual Roots such as the Innate Banana Fan, Innate Gourd Vine, and Pangu Marrow. However, most of them required waiting for the right time to emerge. Thus, Randeng wanted to borrow some of the Three Pure Ones' good fortune and go with them.

The Three Pure Ones exchanged glances, and Taishang spoke, "It just so happens that we three brothers have just finished our seclusion and were planning to go out. Since Fellow Daoist Randeng is also heading to Buzhou Mountain, let's go together."

In reality, the Three Pure Ones had accepted Randeng's gift and felt obligated not to refuse him, especially since they had visited Buzhou Mountain many times before. If there were any Spiritual Treasures there, they should have sensed them already.

Thus, the four set off together for Buzhou Mountain.

Buzhou Mountain was located in the center of the Great Desolation, while Kunlun Mountain was in the eastern part. The two were actually quite close, otherwise, the Three Pure Ones would not have known Fuxi and Nuwa.

The four agreed that after touring Buzhou Mountain, they would go find Fuxi and Nuwa. They hadn't seen them for tens of thousands of years and wondered if Fuxi and Nuwa had advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.

All four were Grand Unity Golden Immortals, and they soon arrived at the foot of Buzhou Mountain.

Buzhou Mountain was formed from Pangu's spine and was the center of the entire Great Desolation, serving as the pillar supporting the heavens and earth.

It wasn't until after the Witch-Demon Tribulation that Gonggong angrily rammed Buzhou Mountain, causing this foremost divine mountain of the Great Desolation to collapse.

As Randeng stepped onto Buzhou Mountain, he immediately felt immense pressure on his Primordial Spirit and body. This must be the unique Pangu's Pressure of Buzhou Mountain.

However, a wisp of Pangu's Fortune deep within Randeng's Primordial Spirit flashed with a ray of light, and the pressure emanating from Randeng's body suddenly lessened considerably.

The Three Pure Ones beside him, seeing Randeng ascend the mountain so easily, showed a hint of surprise in their eyes. The three of them were transformed from Pangu's Primordial Spirit, so the pressure of Buzhou Mountain affected them much less.

"Fellow Daoist Randeng, your true form should be an Innate Spiritual Treasure. Why are you so at ease under this Pangu's Pressure?"

Seeing the Three Pure Ones' confusion, Randeng revealed the aura of Pangu's Fortune within his Primordial Spirit.

"It seems that the Three Pure Ones are not as sensitive to Great God Pangu's Fortune as the Ancestor Witches."

Although they both claimed to be Pangu Orthodox, Houtu had recognized his Pangu's Fortune at Wuyi Mountain at a glance. This was likely because the Ancestor Witches focused more on excavating the power of their Pangu bloodline.

"I never expected that Fellow Daoist Randeng also had such a connection with Father God Pangu."

Tongtian spoke, feeling even closer to Randeng in his heart.

Taishang and Yuanshi felt the same. This was because although the Great Desolation was formed by Pangu, not every being would receive the protection of Great God Pangu's Fortune.

Only Innate Divine Saints possessing Pangu's Fortune had the right to call themselves Pangu Orthodox.

Only then did Randeng realize that he too could call himself Pangu Orthodox.

The four of them advanced towards the mountainside together, their relationship growing closer invisibly.

As for why it was only the mountainside, it was because even with the protection of Pangu's Fortune, their cultivation as Grand Unity Golden Immortals could only reach the mountainside of Buzhou Mountain at most.

Just as they were about to reach the mountainside, in a valley not far away, a treasure light burst forth, and the auras of the four laws of Earth, Water, Wind, and Fire flowed out.

Randeng and the others approached the valley. Although it was protected by an Innate Great Formation, through it, the violent aura within was like the time when heaven and earth first opened. The four laws of Earth, Water, Wind, and Fire evolved into numerous small worlds.

Innate Banana Tree!

Randeng knew clearly that the Spiritual Roots on Buzhou Mountain with the energies of Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind could only be the Innate Banana Tree.

He never expected to actually benefit from the Three Pure Ones' good fortune!

The Three Pure Ones also found it strange. They, brothers, had come to Buzhou Mountain several times without encountering any fortuitous encounters. Could it be that they were benefiting from Fellow Daoist Randeng's good fortune?
