Three Brothers Return, Yibao's Complete Form
From this perspective, Tongtian was actually quite patient, enduring until the Investiture of the Gods period before turning against Yuanshi.
He wouldn't have personally intervened if his disciples hadn't gone off to their deaths.
Before he attempted to destroy the Primordial World and recreate it, Tongtian's only flaw was probably the disciples he accepted, who were a mixed bag, some good and some bad.
Focusing on the quantity of disciples without emphasizing their quality, and practicing the Dharma without cultivating virtue, will easily lead to trouble for oneself.
If he had established rules within the sect like I did at Purple Jade Mountain, perhaps the final outcome would have been different.
However, Wu Chu shouldn't get too involved in these matters between the brothers; offering a few pointers would suffice. Whether he spoke or not was his business, and whether they listened or not was none of his concern.
Time flies, and thousands of years have passed.
One day, Wu Chu chatted with the Taishang about the matter of Merit Spiritual Treasure. As they talked, Wu Chu asked the Taishang if he had any Merit Spiritual Treasure that he could see.
Wu Chu originally thought that Taishang hearing this, the Supreme Lord would surely bring out the legendary Heaven-Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda for him to admire.
After all, they were already quite familiar with each other, and he had already seen the Taiji Diagram, so what difference would it make if he acquired this Merit Supreme Treasure?
But no!
The Taishang Being did not possess that Heaven-Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda.
This made Wu Chu wonder if the pagoda was in his master's possession.
It feels a bit messy!
His understanding of Primordial World mythology came entirely from those Primordial World novels. Some information matched up, but some information was obviously quite different.
For example, this Taiji Diagram, and that Pangu Banner.
Unable to obtain the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Pagoda for appreciation, Wu Chu had no choice but to give up on continuing his idle chatter with the Taishang about Merit Spiritual Treasure.
It was during this period that the fog of war once again enveloped the Great River Basin.
The Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan are preparing for another battle in the Great River Basin.
Therefore, the Three Kunlun Brothers felt it was time to return.
Aside from the original, Taishang and Tongtian actually seemed to have a bit of a "happy and carefree" feeling about returning home.
But in the end, they still chose to say goodbye and leave.
The three brothers all gained something from their trip to Purple Jade Mountain.
Taishang somewhat like Wu Chu was back then, obsessed with alchemy; Yuanshi has stopped openly controlling Tongtian, seemingly genuinely wanting to ease the tension between the brothers; while Tongtian is enjoying fine wine and delicacies, even enlightening some Grass-Head Gods, sending them to learn cooking, brewing, singing, dancing, and other arts from Little Moon Spirit, seemingly wanting to introduce these things to his Upper Purity Peak, and even asking Wu Chu for the Golden Core Cultivation Method...
"This battle between the Dragon Clan and the Qilin Clan is likely to last a long time. If you are unharmed, it would be best to continue your cultivation in these mountains."
Before leaving, Taishang spoke earnestly to Wu Chu.
Hearing this, Wu Chu didn't know if the Taishang Daoist had seen something in the River of Destiny, but he still nodded and smiled, "Brother Taishang Daoist, rest assured, my Daoist title of 'The Mountain Recluse Who Never Leaves' wasn't chosen casually."
The three smiled, bowed to Wu Chu in farewell, and wished each other well.
After the Three Kunlun Brothers left, Wu Chu continued his secluded cultivation. In his spare time, he also pondered the Dao of Alchemy, since the pills he had refined so far were only suitable for the Heavenly Immortal Realm.
However, before going into seclusion, Wu Chu planned to improve Yibao's skills.
The problem of this big spender who absorbs Merit will have to be resolved sooner or later.
Although we couldn't see the Heaven and Earth Mysterious Yellow Pagoda and couldn't determine whether the flaw of the Yibao was that its Indestructible Spirit Light wasn't strong enough, we still had to give it a try.
Therefore, Wu Chu gave the Merit he gained from pioneering the Yibao Dao of Alchemy to Yi Bao, in order to strengthen Yibao's innate Innate Indestructible Spirit Light.
Fearing he might keep it on his person, he couldn't resist using it elsewhere.
However, even with that enormous amount of Merit given to Yibao, it still couldn't completely fill the gap. It only allowed Yibao to unleash power comparable to a top-grade, early-stage Spirit Treasure without using the Merit.
In the end, Yibao wondered if she would grow bigger after officially becoming Supreme Treasure. Then, gritting her teeth, she resolutely poured all the wealth she Epoch into that Indestructible Spirit Light.
When she finally filled the hole, the aura of the complete Merit Supreme Treasure swept outwards. Golden light rose from the Summit of the Sacred Tree, and the Order Divine Chains descended. The immense pressure made everyone feel a strange sense of suffocation.
However, Yibao quickly suppressed this aura, then giggled and twirled around, her flowing skirt and clothes fluttering in the wind...
Wu Chu looked at the phone in his hand, counting the golden, mysterious runes.
"You still have Merit left to accumulate, don't you!"
When Wu Chu discovered that Yibao still had Merit left to accumulate, he looked at her speechlessly and said, "You 'Merit -guarding slave,' just how much wealth have you amassed?"
When confronted with Wu Chu's questioning, Yibao chuckled, looking slightly embarrassed.
But soon, that embarrassment turned into anger, and it screamed, "Why? Why am I still in this little sprite form even though I'm a true Supreme Treasure?"
That's right, Yibao is still the same Yibao, a delicate little elf.
So she grabbed the phone from Wu Chu's hand and raised her hand to smash it in anger!
But Wu Chu suddenly hugged her... uh! Because Yibao was too small, he gently clasped his hands together and 'held her in his palms'.
"No way! You are the phone, and the phone is you. Do you want to smash yourself in anger?"
While it's true that dropping a phone these days doesn't guarantee it won't break, it depends on who's doing it, right? After all, Yibao is the True Spirit of this Spirit Treasure; what if it accidentally breaks itself?
Sitting in Wu Chu's palm, Yibao wiped away her tears and began to sob.
Wu Chu coughed lightly and said, "What's there to cry about! I've always liked your appearance! When you're not being naughty, you're cute and adorable, and when you are, you're sexy and alluring. You're such a versatile little devil, aren't you great!"
"If I don't grow bigger, how can I be your concubine...?"
"Ahem, we really need to ban some!"
"Liar! You big liar, you said she was the apple of your eye..."
"You're slandering me. Look, haven't I treated you like a precious gem? Aren't I afraid you'll fall? If that's not enough, I can put you in my mouth..."
"Pah! I don't want to, you have bad breath..."
"Bad breath?"
Wu Chu stared in disbelief. "This is the worst time Daluo has ever been slandered!"
"Yes, it is!"
"..."
So be it! Whatever makes you happy!
