Looking at the newly promoted Innate Supreme Treasure in his hand, the Eighteen-grade Yin-Yang Dao Lotus, which had shrunk to palm size, its divine might contained, and completely unremarkable, Dong Wang Gong was overjoyed.
Although he already possessed the Chaos Bead, an Innate Supreme Treasure, this Eighteen-grade Dao Lotus was the result of his planning for hundreds of thousands of years and his personal advancement, so the feeling was naturally different.
Moreover, with the resonance of their origins, this Dao Lotus was destined to be Dong Wang Gong's Dao Proving Treasure, making it the most important treasure to him.
At this moment, although the lotus platform's appearance was no different from before, its aura was vastly changed. After all, it was an Innate Supreme Treasure, and it was extraordinary.
The innate Dao Rhyme was leisurely and intoxicating. As long as Dong Wang Gong wished, the Dao Lotus could manifest the Dao of Yin and Yang before him, assisting him in cultivating this Chaos Top-tier Law.
Not only that, but the Dao Lotus's power had also greatly increased. When it was only twelve-grade, it already possessed considerable defense. Now, having advanced to eighteen-grade, it had reached the level of a Supreme Treasure, and it was much stronger than the Qiankun Cauldron, which was also an Innate Supreme Treasure. It was even comparable to the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, Taiqing Laozi's meritorious treasure renowned for its unparalleled defense.
What was even more commendable was that after refining the seed of the Yin-Yang Law, the Dao Lotus had also gained offensive capabilities. It could manifest Yin-Yang Law divine abilities to fight enemies, with considerable power.
Such a treasure, with both offense and defense, could already rival the Taiji Diagram, Pangu Banner, and Chaos Bell, the Three Treasures of Creation.
The Chaos exotic treasure God Slaying Spear and the Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure Pure Yang Sword were primarily for offense. The Central Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner and the Southern Flame Light Banner, both Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures among the Five Elements Banner, were for defense. The newly promoted Innate Supreme Treasure, the Eighteen-grade Innate Yin-Yang Dao Lotus, possessed both offense and defense. Coupled with the auxiliary Supreme Treasure Chaos Bead, Dong Wang Gong had truly armed himself to the teeth with Innate Spiritual Treasures.
In his previous life, it was said that Old Ancestor Minghe was exceptionally gifted and possessed a body full of treasures. However, at this moment, he had surpassed even that.
To say he was wealthy, this was even before considering many relatively lower-grade spiritual treasures, such as the High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure Blazing Sun Command Banner he had obtained earlier at Buzhou Mountain.
There were a limited number of Innate Spiritual Treasures in the Primordial World, and most Innate Beings did not have the fortune to possess one. If others knew that Dong Wang Gong did not even care much about High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, they would probably be so angry that their primordial spirits would leave their bodies and their Dao hearts would collapse.
It was known that even top-tier Innate Divine Demons like Old Ancestor Hongyun did not possess a decent Innate Spiritual Treasure at this time. It was only after Hongjun's sermon that he obtained the Innate Spiritual Treasure Soul Scattering Gourd from that Innate Gourd Vine at Buzhou Mountain.
And that Old Ancestor Kunpeng spent his entire life scheming for a defensive spiritual treasure. In the end, during the Witch-Demon Calamity, after finally obtaining Di Jun's River Diagram and Luo Book, he hid in the Northern Darkness Dao field, only to have it taken away by a Saint in the end.
At this time, Hongjun had not yet become a Saint, and the Three Corpses Method had not yet emerged. Even without Innate Spiritual Treasures, these Innate Divine Demons would at most suffer disadvantages in combat. When Hongjun preached and passed down the Three Corpses Dao Proving Method, and the Primordial World entered the Quasi-Saint era, since all Great Divine Power Users of the Primordial World needed Innate items to sever their corpses and achieve Golden Immortal of the Origin, there were not a few instances of fighting to the death for an Innate Spiritual Treasure for the sake of their Dao path.
Moreover, Dong Wang Gong's wealth was not limited to these spiritual treasures. The Yellow Middle Plum and the Sky-reaching Jianmu Divine Tree were both top-tier divine objects. Especially the Jianmu, by utilizing it, he might be able to scheme for great merit.
Of course, these were tangible things. There was also an intangible item that was more important than most spiritual treasures, even comparable to a Supreme Treasure.
It was the vast Heavenly Dao Merit on his person. Although he was not walking the path of a Heavenly Dao Saint and wished to pursue the Freedom Great Origin Dao, the importance of Heavenly Dao Merit was not as high. However, this was relative. Even if he did not use it to improve his cultivation, he could still use merit to comprehend the Dao, refine spiritual treasures, or bestow them upon his disciples.
Dong Wang Gong even had some ideas on how to maximize the use of merit to enhance his own strength and foundation. Of course, this would take time to implement.
After inventorying his assets, even Dong Wang Gong himself was a little surprised. Unknowingly, he had become a veritable magnate of the Primordial World.
After putting away the spiritual treasures, Queen Mother of the West floated over.
"Dong Hua, what is this!"
The Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, which had just descended with such immense power, naturally alerted Queen Mother of the West, who was cultivating in the Pure Yin Palace on Supreme Yang Mountain. After the lightning tribulation dissipated, she rushed over worriedly to inquire.
He had nothing to hide from Queen Mother of the West and explained the matter of the Dao Lotus's grade advancement in detail.
As expected, it drew an exclamation from her.
"Your Twelve-grade Dao Lotus is already an Innate Supreme Treasure!"
"It's now an Eighteen-grade Innate Yin-Yang Dao Lotus."
Queen Mother of the West was greatly shocked. She was considered a top-tier Innate Goddess with considerable fortune, possessing the Western Plain Colored Cloud Boundary Banner, a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, yet she had never had the fortune to witness a Supreme Treasure.
This time, she was able to personally witness the birth of a Supreme Treasure.
"East King, your fortune is truly profound."
Queen Mother of the West sighed with emotion.
East King Duke smiled slightly and said, "Tai Zhen, I still have quite a few Dao Lotuses in my Lotus Pond. I'll go pick a Nine-grade one for you. Although it's only among the High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, it has received the aura of Supreme Treasure laws, and it might have the possibility of advancing to a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure."
"Then thank you very much."
The relationship between the two was already one of connected destiny, so there was no Karma to speak of. Queen Mother of the West did not refuse and accepted it frankly.
East King Duke beckoned, and a Yin-Yang Lotus Platform flew out from the Lotus Pond in front of the Dao Palace. Previously, he had bestowed a Seven-grade Lotus Platform upon his disciple Xuan Yang, and this one was the highest grade among them.
"Although this Lotus Platform is only a High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, Lotus Platform-type spiritual treasures can help one comprehend the Dao, which is of great use to us."
Without spending much time, Queen Mother of the West finished refining this Nine-grade Lotus Platform. She was also very happy to receive the Dao Lotus. After chatting for a while, she spoke again, "Dong Hua, I wish to return to Kunlun Mountain to retrieve the attendants left in my Dao Field and some Innate Spiritual Roots to bring back to Mount Fang Island. I also want to travel around the Primordial Continent."
Queen Mother of the West had stayed on Mount Fang Island for many years, helping to guard the Supreme Yang Dao Field. Now that the tribulation had ended, and she had already achieved the Mid-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, it was appropriate for her to go out and travel.
"Why don't we go together?"
East King Duke had been in the Late-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm for tens of thousands of years and had not yet found an opportunity to break through to Zenith Heaven Peak. Traveling the Primordial Continent together to seek opportunities was not a bad decision.
"Good!"
Queen Mother of the West readily agreed and left together after making some preparations.
Her two disciples, Xuan Yang and Qing Ling, were also traveling outside. For this trip, only Jin Ling and Yin Ling, two attendants, remained in the Dao Field. However, Mount Fang Island was protected by a grand formation, and ordinary Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals could not enter. After the tribulation, the Dragon Clan retreated, and within the East Sea, no one dared to forcibly enter East King Duke's Dao Field. It was very safe.
Each with a Lotus Platform, they soon flew out of the East Sea Region and arrived at the Primordial Continent. However, they did not head directly to Western Kunlun but instead went towards Buzhou Mountain again.
One reason was that Queen Mother of the West wished to ascend Buzhou Mountain again to test her luck, and the other was that East King Duke wanted to probe the depths of the Witch Clan.
