The golden bamboo whip was extremely thick, resembling a giant golden insect. Each segment was covered with dense golden roots, and lightning arcs flickered on its surface.

Little Moon Spirit's body was not even as big as one section of this bamboo whip, which had a total of ninety-nine sections.

"The whip of the Golden Thunder Bamboo?!"

Nuwa glanced at Fuxi, then looked at the enormous bamboo whip, her eyes narrowing slightly as she scanned it with her Divine Sense.

After a while, she continued, "It seems to be this. I never expected there to be such a treasure in this Bamboo Sea. You two are quite lucky."

Wu Chu asked curiously, "Is this thing very powerful? How was it formed?"

His Divine Sense wasn't as strong as Nuwa's, so he couldn't scan that far. He didn't want to embarrass himself and just asked directly.

Fuxi smiled and said, "This thing was born from the heavenly thunder and has been refined by it for many years. It inherently possesses the rare attributes of metal and thunder, and also has the attributes of wood. It can be said to be imbued with Wind and Thunder. You can listen carefully to its sound. Can you faintly hear the sound of Wind and Thunder coming from the bamboo joints?"

Wu Chu listened carefully, almost pressing his ear to the bamboo whip, before he could faintly sense the rumbling sound coming from the bamboo joints.

Finally, he asked, "What is the purpose of this?"

Nuwa smiled and said, "It can be used to refine Spirit Treasure! However, it's a bit of a pity that this thing hasn't developed sentience yet. If it could undergo ten thousand years of tempering by lightning, it would be even better."

"..."

In the Primordial World, things are always going on for tens of thousands of years, it's really...

Wu Chu didn't know how to express his disbelief. Then he remembered that, according to the timeline of this world, he had only been in this world for a little over ten years. Considering the enormous time span of this world, with its Kalpa, Wu Chu found it absurd.

"It seems there are some treasures in this Purple Jade Mountain after all!" Wu Chu laughed. "Why don't you plant this thing back, Little Moon Spirit?"

Little Moon Spirit tilted her head, looked at Wu Chu, then at Nuwa, and asked, "Sister, if we plant this back, will it still be useful?"

Their relationship has been elevated through their shared exploration of food.

Nuwa nodded and said, "If nurtured properly, it will definitely be possible."

Fuxi looked at Wu Chu and smiled, "How about you give it to me, fellow Daoist? I'll use the scales and bones from that Azure Dragon to forge a few Spirit Treasure for you. What do you say?"

"What are you saying... Okay! No problem!"

Wu Chu originally wanted to say, "Don't talk about exchanging; if you want it, I'll just give it to you," but then he thought of Fuxi, this seemingly honest guy who could actually do something so easy, so he immediately changed his mind. The lessons of the past are still fresh; we must be wary.

"What use does my brother have for it?" Nuwa asked, puzzled.

Fuxi smiled and said, "I will take it back and nurture it, and see if I can make a Wind-Thunder Flute in the future. Perhaps this flute of yours has given me some inspiration..."

"..."

Wu Chu opened his mouth, about to blurt out "Holy shit!"

He felt that when dealing with these legendary figures from mythology, one had to be prepared to be constantly discouraged, as no one knew when they might suddenly achieve enlightenment.

First Nuwa, now Fuxi, and before that, Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi. When will I, the imposter possessor of the Final Aspect of the Heavenly Dao’s Eighty-One Manifestations, finally be able to stand up?

"Congratulations, fellow Daoist!" Wu Chu paused for a moment, then cupped his hands in congratulations, before having Little Moon Spirit hand the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo whip to Fuxi.

With a flick of his wide sleeve, Fuxi tucked the enormous bamboo whip into his sleeve.

Whether it was Universe in the Sleeve technique or simply putting the item into Cosmos Storage Bag, Wu Chu was quite envious of this skill.

Although Wu Chu wished he could go back immediately and have the Great God Fuxi be his tool for refining treasures, he ultimately held back, since there was no rush.

Moreover, there was something Wu Chu needed to clarify with them. "By the way, I forgot to ask Fellow Daoist Fuxi, how long does it take to refine a Spirit Treasure?"

Fuxi smiled and said, "The material is only at the Golden Immortal level, so it won't take too long, probably a few years. Besides the Dragon-Scale Armor, what other Spirit Treasure would you like, Fellow Daoist? The dragon bones and Dragon Tendon from that Azure Dragon can both be used to refine them. The dragon bones can be used to refine offensive Spirit Treasure, and the Dragon Tendon can be used to refine control Spirit Treasure, such as the Beast-Binding Rope..."

Upon hearing the word "dragon bone, "Wu Chu wondered if it could Cheng Tang or used to make medicinal wine. After all, tiger bone is considered a highly nutritious food, so how could dragon bone be any less effective?

As for refining it into an offensive spiritual Spirit Treasure, Wu Chu felt it wasn't very meaningful, since his cultivation level was too low, and it was best not to take action if possible.

But once he takes action, what can he possibly do with his limited cultivation level?

So Wu Chu asked what was on his mind, "Have you two ever soaked dragon bones in wine?"

Upon hearing this question, all three of them blinked and stared at him wide-eyed.

"A Chu, you still call me a little foodie!"

After a long while, Little Moon Spirit covered her mouth and teased Wu Chu.

"Ahem, that's not the point!" Wu Chu replied.

Fuxi shook his head and said, "My brother and I have never even slain a dragon, so how could we possibly have dragon bones to make wine?"

Wu Chu laughed and said, "How about I give you some dragon bones? You can take them back and soak them in spirit wine; it should be a great tonic."

Nuwa chuckled and shook her head, "This thing has no effect on my brother and me; at most, it can only satisfy our appetites. Fellow Daoist, you should keep it for yourself!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu nodded, somewhat embarrassed, and continued, "There's something I need to tell you beforehand. Although I didn't kill this azure Azure Dragon, it did die here on Purple Jade Mountain. Now that I've settled here, if the Dragon Clan seeks revenge, they might come looking for me. We've estimated the timeframe to be between fifty or sixty years and a hundred years. More than ten years have already passed, so it's best if you two don't stay here for more than thirty years, lest the Dragon Clan misunderstand and think you two killed the azure Azure Dragon."

Fuxi and Nuwa were both taken aback when they heard this, and then nodded silently.

They were all somewhat surprised that Wu Chu had actually spoken out of turn. If he hadn't, they might have encountered the Dragon Clan seeking revenge after they had refined a few Spirit Treasure.

At that time, there may be a fierce battle.

Of course, it's more likely that they'll join forces to slay a dragon.

After all, the Dragon Clan who came seeking revenge were unlikely to be True Dragon at the Daluo Realm.

Fuxi glanced at Wu Chu silently, then suddenly smiled and said, "Although I was somewhat displeased with your manners before, I am now willing to be your friend."

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu wore a heartbroken expression and said, "Fellow Daoist, your words are truly heartbreaking. It turns out you've never considered me a friend! But I've always considered you two friends, otherwise I wouldn't have told you this, letting you unknowingly take the blame for me. Isn't that wonderful!"

Nuwa chuckled upon hearing this, while Fuxi's lips twitched slightly as he said, "Fellow Daoist, let's pretend I never said that! It's best if we don't become friends!"

"Haha... I was just joking, Fellow Daoist Fuxi, please don't take it seriously!"

"I'm serious!"

"..."

"Hahaha..."

Seeing Wu Chu's frustrated expression, Fuxi laughed heartily.
