Schrödinger's Supreme Treasure, Bai Ze Without Scruples
Wu Chu laughed and said, "This was a gift from Senior Qiankun. I've already mentioned to you two that the senior possesses the supreme Supreme Treasure, the Heaven-and-Earth Cauldron!"
When Wu Chu became a disciple of the patriarch, the patriarch sent the young Daoist Tong Hao to deliver a treasure. That Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure, the Five-Element True-Spirit Qiankun Sword, was Innate Object had been transformed from Acquired to innate.
Hong Yun knew about this.
"I see. It's been so long, I've almost forgotten." Hong Yun nodded slightly, looking at the Innate Primordial Spirit Pearl in Zhen Yuanzi's hand. "Why did you fuse these two Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure together, brother? Wouldn't it be a pity if you accidentally damaged them?"
"I just want to upgrade my Purple Jade Mountain Blessed Land into Grotto-Heaven!" Wu Chu said with a smile. "Of course, I can't do it now. I have to wait until my cultivation reaches the Daluo realm and I have a thorough grasp of the Dao of Qiankun and Earth."
"Advancing to Grotto-Heaven?!" Hong Yun nodded slightly, looked at Zhen Yuanzi, and said, "Brother, isn't your Longevity Mountain also preparing to Earth Book to advance to Grotto-Heaven?"
Wu Chu looked at Zhen Yuanzi curiously, and suddenly remembered that in Daoist Temple to the Journey to the West, Zhen Yuanzi's Daoist temple was called "Longevity Mountain Blessed Land, Wuzhuang Temple Grotto-Heaven". Just like the monkey's "Flower-Fruit Mountain and Fruit Mountain Blessed Land, Water-Curtain Cave Grotto-Heaven", it was both Blessed Land and Grotto-Heaven.
It is estimated that Zhen Yuanzi used that Earth Book to transform the Blessed Land into Grotto-Heaven.
Could his Purple Jade Mountain then be called 'Purple Jade Mountain Blessed Land, Sacred Tree Summit Grotto-Heaven' in the future? Hmm! Why does 'Sacred Tree Summit' sound so awkward?
Never mind, let's ignore that for now!
"Brother Zhenyuan, do you know how to upgrade Blessed Land to Grotto-Heaven?" Wu Chu asked curiously.
Zhen Yuanzi shook his head and said, "I just wanted to try it out, but I haven't implemented it yet! I don't know if it will work based on the Earth Book, or even if the Earth Book is used to transform Blessed Land into Grotto-Heaven, will it still be usable as it is now..."
Upon hearing this, Wu Chu nodded slightly and concluded, "Then it's best if you don't try it lightly, brother. I've asked Senior Qiankun and Senior Yang Mei, and they both said that to transform Blessed Land into Grotto-Heaven, you need to find some Supreme Treasure that inherently possess the Qiankun Laws..."
Upon hearing this, Hong Yun shook his head. "In this world, how many Supreme Treasure are there? Even if you fuse these two Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure into one, it may not necessarily upgrade them to Supreme Treasure."
Upon hearing this, Wu Chu also felt that it made sense. After all, in the Primordial World, the only truly undisputed Primordial Supreme Treasure were the three pieces formed from the Heaven-Opening Axe.
Other Supreme Treasure are somewhat controversial.
Take the Heaven-and-Earth Cauldron for example. Some people think it's just a Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, only at the very top level of Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure.
However, he could tell from what Junior Brother Hao had said that this spiritual treasure, which could turn a acquired Spirit Treasure Acquired its Innate, was indeed a Supreme Treasure, one that even his master acknowledged.
There's also the Azure Peace Sword of the 'Tongtian Xiaodao', which was his most Supreme Treasure Azure Peace Sword to achieve enlightenment, but it seems to have been broken by the Seven-Treasure Wonderful Tree of the old man Zhunti.
Of course, some people think that it could not possibly be the Azure Peace Sword, the Supreme Treasure achieving enlightenment in the 'Tongtian Xiaodao', because they think the Azure Peace Sword couldn't possibly be so shoddy.
However, according to what Qingqiu Li and Hong Yun said when they returned to Purple Jade Mountain, the sword used by the 'Tongtian Path' was indeed very likely a Supreme Treasure.
Therefore, the distinction between the Ten Great Innate Spirit Treasure and Supreme Treasure is somewhat blurred.
Calling them 'Schrödinger's Supreme Treasure' would be an apt description.
Zhen Yuanzi's Earth Book falls somewhere in between these two categories.
The fact that Zhen Yuanzi wants to use this to advance his Grotto-Heaven shows that he has a lot of confidence in the Earth Book, a treasure that lies between Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure and Primordial Supreme Treasure.
Just as Wu Chu had great confidence in Yibao, and even always felt that Yibao was a Merit Supreme Treasure, it is possible that Yibao has not yet reached the level of a true Supreme Treasure!
After all, even the Demonic Supreme Treasure, the Godslayer Spear, is not considered Supreme Treasure by some.
However, considering how special Yibao is, it would be rather petty of Heavenly Dao not to bestow upon her the title of a Merit Supreme Treasure.
After all, the amount of information on a mobile phone can greatly benefit the operation of the Heavenly Dao; even a child could easily imagine.
Since Yibao is a Merit Supreme Treasure, then the Godslayer Spear, which can rival her, must also be a Supreme Treasure of immense merit.
So, while eating and drinking, the group discussed the Dao of Qiankun. Given Wu Chu's understanding of these Dao of Qiankun, he was able to offer some insightful commentary.
And in this discussion of the Dao, the Dao Resonance naturally flowed forth.
The three children, who were in seclusion, were awakened from their enlightenment by the flowing Dao Resonance.
They had no idea how long they had been in seclusion, so they ran straight out, intending to find something to eat first. Having been raised to be little foodies since childhood, they naturally had no interest in eating dew or eating the moon. Since there was good food available, why should they deprive themselves?
With their arrival, the silly Qingfeng and the dull-witted Mingyue had company.
Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun accepted the greetings of the three children and then gave them some small gifts. Having repaired the earth's veins for so many years and traveled to countless places, they could still afford to offer some low-quality Spirit Treasure.
While the three children ran off to chat with Qingfeng and Mingyue, Zhen Yuanzi telepathically asked Wu Chu, "Didn't you always want to avoid getting involved with the Three Clans?"
Hong Yun laughed and said, "So what if we're involved? Since the Three Clans are willing to send their members to you, my worthy brother, they will definitely remember this favor. It's actually a good thing."
The three little kids indeed found common ground with Qingfeng and Mingyue.
"You two are just idiots Qingfeng and silly Mingyue! You look even younger than me!"
Little Qilin Di Kun reached out and gestured above the heads of the two young Daoist boys, then laughed and said...
You're the idiot!
The two young Daoist disciples rolled their eyes at the Little Qilin, but with their master present, they didn't want to stoop to the level of this child.
Fortunately, Little Yellow Dragon tapped Little Qilin on the head and said, "Senior Brother Bai Ze can call them that, but we can't. Besides, guests are guests, so we must be polite. Don't say you forgot; if you forget, go copy it ten thousand times..."
The Little Qilin scratched his head and grinned foolishly, "Senior brother, I was just joking with them."
Little Yellow Dragon bowed to Qingfeng and Mingyue in apology, "I'm truly sorry. My junior brother here is always outspoken, and I apologize on his behalf for his rudeness!"
Little Qingfeng waved his hand and said, "Junior Brother Huanglong, you don't need to be so polite. But don't let our small appearance fool you, we're actually older than you. When we first came here to learn from Sister Yueling and Sister Xiao Yu, you weren't even here yet!"
Little Mingyue transmitted her voice to Little Qilin: "You silly Little Qilin, if you dare call me 'Silly Mingyue' again, I'll tell your master about you peeing under that rule-breaking stele..."
"You, how did you know about this? Oh right, it must be Senior Brother Bai Ze. I trusted him so much, and even gave him ten packs of Exploding Bean Curd..."
Little Mingyue chuckled, "I gave him all the snacks that Sister Yueling gave me."
