Three Lights Divine Water, Pure World White Lotus

As soon as he set foot here, a vast aura—completely different from Fangling Island's bitter solitude—rushed toward him. It was an indescribable freshness and sanctity, as if it could wash away all the filth of the world and purify the very origin of all things.

This aura was so pure that a single breath left one feeling refreshed and clear-minded. The Primordial Spirit felt as if it had been cleansed by sweet rain, becoming crystalline and translucent. Even some minor obstructions in past cultivation seemed to loosen.

Looking out, the island's core was a Jade Pool formed from the purest Innate Spiritual Qi. The pool water was crystal clear, yet shimmered with a hazy treasure light.

In the center of the Jade Pool, a lotus flower quietly floated on the water's surface.

Its petals were pure white, untainted by the slightest speck of dust. There were twelve petals in total, layered and spread freely, their texture like the finest mutton-fat white jade in the world, meticulously carved—yet containing a vitality and spirituality far surpassing any jade.

The entire lotus was enveloped in a soft, sacred halo. As the halo flowed, it emitted a supreme Dao rhyme that purified all things and caused all evils to retreat.

Above the lotus platform, Great Dao runes faintly appeared and vanished, expounding the highest principles of the Way of Purification. This was none other than one of the few Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures in the Primordial World—the Twelve-petal Pure World White Lotus!

But what made Zhenyuanzi's gaze freeze was the divine water beneath the Twelve-petal Pure World White Lotus, nourishing its roots.

The pool water shimmered, simultaneously flashing with three brilliant, wondrous colors: gold, silver, and purple!

The gold was blazing hot, like the Great Sun Descending; the silver was cool and clear, like the Bright Moon in the Sky; the purple was deep, like Stars Filling the Sky.

The three divine lights were perfectly fused together, neither conflicting nor overshadowing one another. Instead, they emitted a boundless, life-birthing Innate vitality and spiritual Dao rhyme.

This water was none other than the legendary Primordial's First Healing Sacred Medicine, famed for its miraculous effects of healing flesh and bone and reviving the dead—the Three Lights Divine Water!

Even Zhenyuanzi, with his vast experience as an Innate Great Power and possessing the Book of the Earth, a Xiantian Spiritual Treasure, couldn't help a trace of awe flashing through his eyes.

The Twelve-petal Pure World White Lotus could be called an omnipotent treasure, integrating defense, assistance, and Dao comprehension.

The Purifying Qi it emitted could not only resist External Demonic Interference but also assist cultivators in comprehending the Dao, keeping the mind clear as a mirror and free from stray thoughts, making cultivation achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Its defensive power was astonishing. Sitting on the Lotus Platform, protected by the Treasure Lotus Radiance, one was said to be invulnerable to all magic, with all evils retreating, and ordinary spiritual powers and spells unable to approach.

Even when used for attack, its Purifying Divine Light could dissolve an opponent's spells and purify their magical power—truly infinitely mysterious.

As for the Three Lights Divine Water, its efficacy was unparalleled. No matter how severe the bodily damage or how deep the Primordial Spirit injury, as long as a trace of the True Spirit remained undying, a single drop of Three Lights Divine Water was enough to reverse life and death and restore everything to its original state.

Moreover, using it to nourish spiritual roots, temper magic treasures, or improve pill quality all yielded inconceivably miraculous effects.

However, the Great Dao is just; fullness leads to loss. Such heaven-defying divine objects naturally have their strict taboos.

The fundamental efficacy of the Three Lights Divine Water lay in the perfect fusion of the Sunlight, Moonlight, and Starlight Divine Waters. All three were indispensable; the balanced state of "All Three Lights Present" had to be maintained to unleash the supreme healing sacred power of bringing back from the dead.

If the three were separated, or if any one of them was missing, their nature would immediately undergo an earth-shattering, completely opposite, terrifying reversal.

The Golden Sunlight Divine Water would transform into a potent poison that erodes flesh and bone; the Silver Moonlight Divine Water would become a malevolent sha that corrodes the Primordial Spirit and soul; the Purple Starlight Divine Water would turn into a nightmare that devours the True Spirit and consciousness.

From life-saving sacred water to fatal poison—it all hinged on the single thought of "unity" versus "separation." Truly unpredictable and dangerous. Even if ordinary people obtained it, without the correct method, they would be unable to enjoy it and would suffer harm instead.

Zhenyuanzi, with his profound cultivation, naturally understood all these key points.

His thought stirred. First, he carefully took out several containers from his own space, prepared long ago specifically for holding top-tier spiritual items.

These jade bottles were refined from the Heart of Ten-thousand-year Innate Warm Jade, warm and smooth, best for preserving the activity of spiritual liquids. Mysterious array patterns for stabilizing energy and sealing spiritual mechanisms had been pre-carved onto the bottle bodies.

He performed mysterious hand seals, using his vast internal magical power like the finest carving knife to draw the Three Lights Divine Water from the Jade Pool.

The shimmering divine water transformed into a three-color intertwined water line, extremely stable, and was guided into the jade bottles without a single drop left behind.

Every time a bottle was filled, Zhenyuanzi immediately applied multiple powerful restriction seals to ensure that the spirituality of the Three Lights Divine Water inside the bottle did not leak at all, and that the Sun, Moon, and Star Lights maintained their perfectly fused balanced state, properly stored away.

After storing away this Three Lights Divine Water, which would make any Great Power covet and fight over it, Zhenyuanzi concentrated and calmed his mind, his gaze finally falling completely on the Twelve-petal Pure World White Lotus before him, emitting its sacred radiance.

An Innate Spiritual Treasure of this grade could no longer be collected by Dao Rhyme Guidance like the Bitter Bamboo. It required expending great effort, slowly refining it with one's own Primordial Spirit Magical Power, and imprinting a unique Primordial Spirit Imprint into its core restrictions, before one could truly control its power, achieving a mind-connected state where it moved like an extension of the arm.

He once again found a clean place beside the Lotus Pond, sat down cross-legged.

First, he closed his eyes, concentrated, regulated his breathing, and circulated his qi, adjusting his own state to its peak. His mind was clear as a mirror, undisturbed by any waves.

Only when his Essence, Qi, and Spirit were fully perfected did he slowly open his eyes, his gaze calm as he looked toward the Pure World White Lotus.

The next moment, a highly condensed Primordial Spirit power, containing his own Dao Fruit and the aura of the Great Earth Origin, quietly probed out from his Cinnabar Field.

This spiritual sense power was pure and gentle, carrying the weight and tolerance of the Virtue of Wu Tu. Like the softest yet toughest silk thread, or like gurgling water, it began to carefully make contact and probe into the outermost Xiantian Restriction of the Pure World White Lotus.

"Hum—"

At first, the Pure World White Lotus flashed with a faint light, emitting a barely audible light hum. Its lotus petals gently closed a little, radiating a soft yet firm resistant halo.

This was the spirituality born from the Xiantian Spiritual Treasure itself—an instinctive rejection and self-protection against all external forces. A Top-grade Spiritual Treasure naturally had its pride.

Zhenyuanzi was not impatient, nor did he force an attack.

His spiritual sense power maintained a righteous and peaceful momentum, using patient effort to slowly, bit by bit, infiltrate and permeate.

His magical power was vast as the sea, endlessly supporting the refining process. At the same time, while refining this first layer of restrictions, he did not use brute force washing. Instead, he focused on feeling and understanding the initial true meaning of the "purification" law contained within the restrictions.

Thanks to his previous comprehension of the Bitter Bamboo's "conversion" law, which had subtle commonalities with "purifying the mind" and "clarifying the Dao heart," he now applied that understanding by analogy. This made his refining of the Pure World White Lotus encounter fewer obstacles and proceed more smoothly.

Time once again lost meaning in this deep-level refining. The process was slow and extraordinarily difficult.

As a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Twelve-petal Pure World White Lotus contained layer upon layer of restrictions—countless in number. Each restriction was profoundly mysterious, containing the ultimate principles of the Purification Dao.

Zhenyuanzi not only had to consume a vast ocean of magical power to slowly wash and grind these restrictions but also, while refining each layer, had to multitask, constantly understanding and comprehending the fragments of Great Dao Law contained within, cross-referencing them with his own Dao.

This was a test not only of magical power but also of cultivation and enlightenment—the ultimate tempering.

His form sat motionless, like an ancient mountain that had existed since time immemorial.

The Dao rhyme around him changed accordingly from time to time, emitting a pure white sacred light of the same origin as the White Lotus. The light flowed, and the power of purification spread, reflecting and resonating with the Pure World White Lotus's own body.

At other times, he was enveloped by his own pure, profound yellow Guardian Earth Divine Light—a light of immense weight that stabilized the refining process and warded off the law backlash that could arise when refining high-level restrictions.

Occasionally, fine beads of sweat imbued with Dao principles would seep from his brow, only to be instantly vaporized by his own mana.

In this prolonged sitting and refining, whose duration he could no longer gauge, Zhenyuanzi's understanding of the Dao of "Purification" advanced at an unprecedented pace.

Many past doubts regarding exorcising evil, avoiding tribulation, and condensing the Dao heart were suddenly enlightened. At the same time, his mana, under the constant feedback and washing of the Spiritual Treasure's origin power, became even purer and more condensed—like hundred-refined steel, with all dross removed and essence retained.

The bottleneck that had long stagnated at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, seemingly unbreakable, had taken a solid step forward under this fortune and effort.

Though a layer of indescribable membrane still separated him from the Primordial Chaos Great Dao, that membrane seemed thinner than before, allowing him to glimpse a vague outline of the vast world beyond.

Finally, at the moment he broke through the forty-eighth restriction layer and completely understood and imprinted his own Primordial Spirit onto the last core origin restriction, the entire Twelve-petal Pure World White Lotus suddenly shook. Its body radiance instantly retracted, no longer emitting outward but becoming warm, moist, and translucent, as if it had become one with Zhenyuanzi.

It let out a clear, joyful light hum, like a chick's first cry—clear and melodious—conveying a sense of recognizing its master and closeness.

Then, the white lotus transformed into a gentle, auspicious white streamer, size as desired, actively flew up, and plunged into Zhenyuanzi's brow, sinking into the deepest part of his vast, boundless Sea of Consciousness.

The precious lotus quietly suspended beneath his immense Primordial Spirit, slowly rotating, scattering specks of light rain imbued with purifying sacred power, nourishing and moisturizing the spirit, making it increasingly clear and firm. All formless inner demons, impure thoughts, and external evils could not approach even a little.

At this point, this top-grade innate spiritual treasure—the Twelve-petal Pure World White Lotus—had been completely refined by him, becoming another powerful protective Dao treasure after the Book of the Earth, which was formed from the Earth Fetal Membrane.

Offense and defense integrated, and it could aid cultivation—its value was immeasurable.

Zhenyuanzi let out a long exhale of turbid Qi containing Dao rhyme and slowly stood up.

Feeling the perfectly integrated, like-an-extension-of-the-arm close connection coming from the Pure World White Lotus in his Sea of Consciousness, even his Dao heart, as calm as an ancient well, could not help but reveal a trace of satisfied expression hard to conceal on his face.

On Fangling Island, he had obtained the Bitter Bamboo and comprehended the profoundness of salvation; on Yingzhou Island, he had acquired the white lotus and obtained divine water, greatly increasing his strength. The harvest of this journey far exceeded his expectations.

His gaze shifted, as if it could pierce through the void, turning toward the direction of the last immortal island—the one most compatible with his origin and conveying the strongest call.

The gains from Fangling and Yingzhou were already great fortune. What kind of opportunity aligned with his Dao would the final Penglai nurture?

His thought stirred, and the array patterns beneath his feet stirred again.
