Reporting to senior: "This junior is Crown Prince Changqin."
This answer seemed to have already been decided in Donghua's mind, but he was still a bit shocked when he heard it. The Witch Clan Great Witch before him was indeed Crown Prince Changqin.
Donghua patted the Hui Dragon beneath him and said, "Is your name Qianyu?"
The Hui Dragon struggled unwillingly, but found it futile. Not a trace of Magical Power or Law could be used within its body. In the end, it nodded in humiliation.
The story of Crown Prince Changqin and Qianyu, he never expected there was such a tale in the Primordial World, though the background of the story was vastly different.
Donghua thought for a moment and said nothing. Regardless of whether the story existed or not, it was of no consequence to him.
He tapped Crown Prince Changqin's forehead with his finger, transmitting the Earth's famous song from his previous life, "High Mountains and Flowing Water."
In his previous life, he was also a music lover, but he couldn't play the zither, only the flute.
"Can you play this music score?"
Crown Prince Changqin was immersed in the music score and did not answer Donghua's question.
After a while, he directly began to play the zither.
The zither music was melodious and unending, evoking the feeling of the peak of a high mountain, ethereal and unfixed, shrouded in clouds and mist.
Soon, the melody became lively like a song, like flowing clouds and running water, cheerful and leisurely.
Donghua took out a jade flute and placed it to his lips, beginning to play.
For a time, the sounds of the zither and flute flowed endlessly on the mountaintop.
The three colorful birds once again danced gracefully in the air.
When the song ended, Crown Prince Changqin couldn't help but sigh, "A good song, a good song, truly a good song, but it's a pity..."
He didn't finish the last sentence, but Donghua understood what he meant.
"It's a pity my flute playing isn't good."
At this moment, Crown Prince Changqin also reacted, chuckling awkwardly, "Senior, this junior didn't mean that, this junior is..."
Donghua: "It's fine. I know how well I play, there's no need for you to cover for me."
In his previous life, he could play the flute, and in this life, relying on his powerful Primordial Spirit, he had definitely made greater progress compared to his previous life.
It was a pity that Crown Prince Changqin, who was playing the zither, was already close to the Dao, while he was far behind.
Donghua looked at the gentle and refined Crown Prince Changqin before him and sighed, "You really don't seem like a Witch Clan Great Witch."
Changqin gave a wry smile, "This isn't the first time I've heard that. Even my father looks down on me, thinking I lack the bravery of the Witch Clan."
"Looking at the Heavenly Fire origin within your body, are you Zhu Rong's son?"
Ancestor Witch Zhu Rong was the God of Fire, naturally controlling the Nine Heavens Profound Fire, also known as Heavenly Fire.
Changqin nodded.
Donghua: "I truly didn't expect that the irritable old man Zhu Rong could father a child like you. Truly, the Primordial World is vast and full of wonders."
"You don't need to be dejected or self-deprecating. Just now I said you don't seem like a Great Witch, but there's another part to it."
"You are the Great Witch I consider most qualified."
After hearing Donghua's words, Changqin sat up in shock. At this moment, he felt as if he saw light, saw a kindred spirit.
Donghua continued, "Witches stand tall between heaven and earth, communicating with heaven and earth. It's not those with unparalleled combat power who stand tall, but their magnanimity."
"Only those with broad hearts can see heaven and earth, see all living beings, and see themselves."
At this, the few of them fell into contemplation. Changqin murmured the words "see heaven and earth, see all living beings, see themselves."
At a certain moment, he finally awakened. Dao Rhyme flowed around him, and the Heavenly Fire within his body churned, tempering his Great Witch True Form.
He had broken through to the late stage of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal.
Changqin bowed deeply, "Thank you for your guidance, senior."
Donghua accepted this bow with composure. To be honest, he greatly admired Crown Prince Changqin.
As a Witch Clan Great Witch, to possess such magnanimity and sentiment, and to become close friends with the Yao Race's Hui Dragon, was truly rare.
Stroking the jade flute in his hand, he asked, "Have you heard of Wuyi Mountain?"
Crown Prince Changqin pondered for a moment and shook his head. Qianyu also shook his head.
Donghua nodded in disappointment and prepared to leave. His target was the Treasure-Dropping Golden Coin of Wuyi Mountain, and he had no intention of guiding juniors.
Playing the flute and listening to music today was merely a whim of his hobby.
At this moment, the three little phoenixes that had been flying in the sky descended, transforming into three women.
The phoenix woman in the lead said, "Isn't the Wuyi Mountain that senior is looking for right here?"
"Right here?"
Changqin quickly said, "Phoenix birds, don't talk nonsense. This is Yaoshan, where is there any Wuyi Mountain?"
The indignant phoenix woman huffed, "You don't know it because this place changed its name. When Heaven and Earth first opened, this mountain was called Wuyi Mountain. It was the dojo of the Innate Deity Wuyi Gong. Later, Wuyi Gong perished in the Fierce Beast Tribulation."
"Our Phoenix Clan obtained this mountain, and we migrated here to plant phoenix trees, phoenix-wood trees, and Fuyao trees, and then renamed it Yaoshan."
"Exactly, exactly! Yaoshan is the name my Phoenix Clan gave it. This mountain was originally Wuyi Mountain."
The three girls quickly explained the situation.
Crown Prince Changqin didn't refute. When it came to the history of the Desolate and Primordial eras, the Three Clans definitely had a say.
"It seems I was indeed ignorant."
Donghua nodded happily. Although he was an Innate Deity, he had taken human form and appeared much later than the Three Clans, so his knowledge of the Desolate era's history was indeed inferior to theirs.
Seeing Crown Prince Changqin and Donghua's affirmation, the three girls smiled happily.
Donghua didn't think much of it. These three young phoenixes had only recently taken form, and their cultivation was only at the Mysterious Immortal level. They were in the prime of their youth.
He then used his Spiritual Power, his eyes shining with a sharp light, and scanned Wuyi Mountain.
With a single glance, the life and death, joys and sorrows of all beings within Wuyi Mountain, as well as all the myriad forms and colors of the world, became apparent.
This was the great divine ability, Omniscient Insight, which could perceive Destiny and Fortune, see through the illusions of the world, and even shoot divine light to harm enemies.
This was a great divine ability that Dao Ancestor Hongjun had lectured on in Purple Heaven Palace.
Upon this inspection, he immediately discovered the hidden secrets and found the secret realm cave abode hidden within Wuyi Mountain.
It was located at a suspended peak to the east. Above the suspended peak was a large tree, wrapped in an array formation.
Donghua rose and approached the secret realm. With a wave of his sleeve, the array formation wrapped around the outside was broken.
The array formation itself was not strong; it merely had excellent concealment. As long as the location was found, breaking it was not difficult.
After Donghua broke the array formation, Changqin and the others also arrived and saw the hidden secret realm cave abode.
The green-robed Phoenix maiden asked in confusion, "Could this be Wuyi Gong's cave abode? I heard from the elders that Wuyi Gong did not die on the Fierce Beast battlefield back then, but returned to his cave abode after being severely wounded before passing away. Our clan had also searched for the secret realm cave abode, but we never found it."
"Whether it's true or not, we'll know once we go inside."
As Donghua spoke and was about to enter, he saw the others standing still, not moving.
"You little brats, your cultivation isn't high, but you have a lot of thoughts. Let's go, let's go in together and take a look. Perhaps there are opportunities for you too. I, for one, wouldn't stoop to snatching opportunities from juniors like you."
With that, he walked directly into the secret realm cave abode.
The others exchanged glances and then followed him in.
It wasn't that they were afraid of death, but that there was too much killing and treasure-snatching in the Primordial World. Wuyi Gong, as an Innate Deity, would surely have an Innate Spiritual Treasure with him.
This meant that there was at least one Innate Spiritual Treasure inside. What they feared was Donghua killing them to silence them.
Donghua entered and saw that this secret realm was indeed a cave abode, and it had already been inhabited.
He sensed the extent of the cave abode and walked straight towards a great hall.
Inside the great hall, the furnishings were simple. A cultivator sat on a futon, head bowed. There was an aura of decay about him, his face was dark, and he had no breath left, only an empty corpse remaining.
Changqin and the others arrived at the great hall and also saw this scene.
"This must be Wuyi Gong."
This is the last month. I hope everyone will support me. Friends with tickets, please give one. Thank you.
Finally, I wish everyone a happy holiday!
