"Fellow Daoist, please wait and refuse."
Hongjun spoke again, his tone still calm, but with heart-warming sincerity.
"I know very well that Heaven and Earth Cauldron is a Daoist friend's treasure, which is related to my own path and heritage. How dare I borrow it empty-handed?
I am willing to exchange Western Plain Colored Cloud Realm Banner and Eastern Green Lotus Treasure Color Banner among Innate Five Directions Banners!"
As soon as these words came out, even with Zhenyuanzi's character, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes!
Innate Five Directions Banners, he has obtained three of them (Central Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner, Southern Ground-Leaving Flame Light Banner, Northern Profound Origin Water Controlling Banner).
If you can get this Western Lands flag and Eastern Lands flag, you can completely collect this top-notch set of Innate Spiritual Treasure!
At that time, the five flags will be deployed, and the defensive power will directly catch up with Innate Supreme Treasure. It will also help him perfect the Five Elements Circle, which will be of immeasurable help to Great Earth Chaos Dao's deduction!
This was simply sent to his heart!
Hongjun observed Zhenyuanzi's expression and continued to add more words with an extremely sincere tone:
"Moreover, Pindao is not asking for Heaven and Earth Cauldron, he is just borrowing it! When Pindao uses it up, he will definitely return it to Zhao intact and personally return it to fellow Daoists!
Never break your promise!"
He emphasized the word "borrowed" and made a promise to return it, which greatly reduced the risk of Zhenyuanzi.
Zhenyuanzi weighed rapidly in his mind.
Hongjun's sincerity is truly impeccable.
Using two formation flags that are crucial to him and able to collect a set of Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, in exchange for the "temporary right to use" Heaven and Earth Cauldron. This is simply a deal where each takes what he needs.
Although in terms of absolute value, two pieces of Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure (even if they can be made into a set) still seem to be inferior to one piece of Innate Supreme Treasure, the key point is:
First, this is a "borrowing", not a "gift". Heaven and Earth Cauldron will eventually return to your hands.
Second, what Hongjun wants is to repair Jade Plate of Creation, which is related to the supreme path of combining it with Heavenly Dao.
Blocking the Human Dao path, especially blocking the path of existence like Hongjun, is tantamount to self-destruction and forging Blood Sea deep hatred.
Now, not only did the other party not take it by force, but they offered such a valuable treasure in equal exchange, which gave them face and respect.
Thirdly, he really needs these last two sides Five Directional Banners!
Gathering the five flags and perfecting the five elements for him, Evolve Chaos, is of great significance, to a certain extent, even as much as Hongjun using Heaven and Earth Cauldron to repair Jade Plate of Creation.
After all, although Heaven and Earth Cauldron's "refund Return to Origin" is wonderful, it is not urgently needed at the moment, and the immediate improvement and long-term benefits brought by collecting Five Directional Banners are real.
After thinking about this section, Zhenyuanzi's finger tapping on the table stopped.
He raised his eyes, met Hongjun's deep and expectant gaze, and spoke slowly, with a steady voice:
"Dao Ancestor Hongjun's sincere fist shows his insight into Pindao's needs. In exchange for these two flags, if Pindao refuses again, it will appear unkind and may block the path of fellow Daoists."
He changed the topic and his tone became serious. "Heaven and Earth Cauldron, you can borrow it from fellow Daoist."
Hongjun's eyes instantly burst into uncontrollable joy. Although it passed away in a flash, the excitement in his heart was still visible.
He stood up and gave a solemn salute to Zhenyuanzi: "Thank you so much, fellow Daoist, for making it possible! I will keep this sentiment in my heart!"
Zhenyuanzi also stood up, waved his hand and said:
"Fellow Daoists don't need to be polite, this is a matter of mutual benefit."
As soon as he thought, the Heaven and Earth Cauldron, which exuded the simplicity of Chaos Aura, had three legs and two ears, and contained infinite mysteries of creation, emerged from his body and suspended in the air between the two people. The tripod vibrated slightly, revealing its close connection with the origin of Zhenyuanzi.
At the same time, Hongjun also flicked his sleeves, and two bright lights flashed.
The flag is plain white, surrounded by auspicious clouds, exuding tranquility, Purification, and the power of protection. It is Western Plain Colored Cloud Realm Banner(Immortal Gathering Banner).
The other flag is cyan in color, with precious light shining on it. There seems to be a shadow of Chaos Green Lotus rising and falling on the flag, exuding the mysterious Daoist charm of purity and dirt, Invulnerable to All Magic, which is Eastern Green Lotus Treasure Color Banner.
The precious light of the two flags complemented each other, and the Daoist charm was natural, and it immediately had a strong resonance and attraction with the other three Five Directional Banners in Zhenyuanzi's body!
"Fellow Daoist, please." Hongjun pushed the two flags towards Zhenyuanzi.
Zhenyuanzi did not hesitate and reached out to take the two flags.
The moment his fingers touched the flag, Central Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner, Southern Ground-Leaving Flame Light Banner, and Northern Profound Origin Water Controlling Banner vibrated in his body at the same time.
The shadows of five flags appeared involuntarily behind him. The five colors of gold (center), red (south), black (north), white (west), and green (east) rose into the sky. Five Elements Qi instantly connected into one, going back and forth, endlessly!
A defensive Daoist rhyme that is infinitely more powerful than a single flag and seems to be able to isolate heaven and earth and set the tripod Qiankun permeates the air, shrouding the entire Wuzhuang Temple in a peaceful and stable five-color halo!
"Okay!" Zhenyuanzi couldn't help but praise, and the joy in his heart was hard to express.
Collecting Five Directional Banners was of great significance to him. Not only did he get a set of top-level defensive treasures, but it also completed a key part of his Five Elements Great Dao, laying a solid foundation for his future Evolve Chaos.
He then reached out and pointed at Heaven and Earth Cauldron, temporarily cutting off most of his contact with it, leaving only a trace of his mind mark to ensure its location and final ownership. "Fellow Daoist, Heaven and Earth Cauldron is here. I hope Tao will use it kindly, and remember the promise of return."
Hongjun looked solemn and saluted again. "Fellow Daoist, don't worry, I swear with my Daoist heart that I will live up to my promise!"
He carefully put away the Heaven and Earth Cauldron, and the simple tripod disappeared into his sleeve, as if it carried his hopes for the future.
The transaction was completed, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief. Hongjun got the key hope, and Zhenyuanzi collected the coveted Five Directional Banners. Both parties were satisfied.
"In this case, I will stop bothering you and need to return to Jade Capital Mountain as soon as possible." Hongjun said goodbye. He couldn't wait to try to repair Jade Plate of Creation.
Zhenyuanzi also did not hold back. "Fellow Daoist, go slowly. I wish you a smooth journey."
Hongjun nodded, and his body turned into a ray of light, disappearing quietly into Wuzhuang Temple as if integrated into the veins of Heavenly Dao.
Zhenyuanzi stood alone under Plantain Tree, looking at the two newly acquired Precious Banner in his hands, feeling the majestic power of the five elements' initial cycle and the perfect Five-Colored Divine Light around him, a sincere smile finally appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Although Hongjun's visit this time involves risks, the rewards are also huge.
Not only did he form a good relationship with the future Dao Ancestor, but he also gathered Innate Five Directions Banners in one fell swoop, bringing his own heritage and strength to a new level again.
He had a vague feeling that the collected Five Directional Banners might not be just as simple as a defensive treasure, but there seemed to be a deeper secret hidden within it, related to the origin of the Five Elements and the evolution of Chaos, waiting for him to discover.
The road to Primordial Wilderness is long and difficult, but every step of solid accumulation brings him one step closer to the final state of Primordial Chaos Limitless Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal.
