The Beast Calamity, Found a Treasure!

The Beast Calamity erupted in full, and Shen Ni led the ferocious beasts into a thrilling battle against the innate divine beings.

The sounds of battle were deafening, as though they would tear the entire Primordial World apart. Wherever the two sides' attacks collided, radiant light burst forth and energy ripples spread outward, collapsing mountains and redirecting rivers in their wake.

The entire Primordial World fell into chaos and panic. Countless weak creatures fled in all directions, searching for safe shelter.

Mount Buzhou, where Xiao Teng and the others resided, was relatively safe under the protection of the Great Dao's essence.

Da Wa, Er Wa, and Third Baby were not frightened by this terrifying calamity. While the other creatures did not dare move carelessly, they instead gathered their courage and searched Mount Buzhou for treasures.

Mount Buzhou contained countless treasures and opportunities. As they explored the mountain, they found quite a few valuable items.

Among them, the most precious and valuable was the Twelfth-Rank Pure World White Lotus, a Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure.

Xiao Teng had not expected the Twelfth-Rank Pure World White Lotus to appear on Mount Buzhou.

The Twelfth-Rank Pure World White Lotus grew in a hidden pool somewhere on Mount Buzhou.

After Er Wa discovered it, he hurriedly brought Da Wa and Third Baby along to collect it.

The lake water was no ordinary substance either. It was the famed Three Lights Divine Water.

The Three Lights Divine Water was formed from the union of sunlight, moonlight, and starlight, making it incomparably precious.

It possessed miraculous properties. If its three divine waters were used separately, they were highly poisonous. Yet once combined, they became a sacred medicine capable of reviving the dead and regenerating flesh from bones.

Moreover, the Three Lights Divine Water greatly promoted the growth of spiritual plants.

After learning of this, Xiao Teng quickly had them collect all the Three Lights Divine Water with magical treasures.

Once they returned, under Xiao Teng's careful guidance, the three brothers dug a huge pit beside the Calabash Vine. They poured part of the collected Three Lights Divine Water into it, then placed the Twelfth-Rank Pure World White Lotus inside.

The moment the Twelfth-Rank Pure World White Lotus entered the pool, it swiftly adapted to its surroundings and took root within it.

Watching this, Xiao Teng had an idea and tried watering himself with some Three Lights Divine Water.

The instant the Three Lights Divine Water touched his body, Xiao Teng felt a cool sensation spread through his entire being. His somewhat weary mind immediately became refreshed, and even his cultivation speed increased slightly.

Xiao Teng was startled. This really is good stuff!

So Xiao Teng simply extended his roots into the nearby pool and slowly absorbed the Three Lights Divine Water.

The Pure World White Lotus sensed the invading roots and immediately tried to drive them away.

But Xiao Teng was no weaker. He directly entangled the Pure World White Lotus's roots. Now neither could break free.

No years were counted in the Primordial World, and the span of one yuanhui passed in the blink of an eye.

Normally, a calabash would successfully take human form every few tens of thousands of years. Yet this time, it took a full hundred thousand years before another calabash transformed.

However, this time, two calabashes transformed at once: Si Wa and Wu Wa.

After a faint tremor, the fourth and fifth calabashes slowly split open, revealing two little children who looked extremely alike.

Their little faces were round, and their brows and eyes brimmed with lively spirit. Though they looked very similar, a closer examination revealed that their personalities were entirely different.

Si Wa was warm and exuberant, his eyes glittering with excitement. Wu Wa, meanwhile, was like a tranquil deep pool—calm, composed, and peaceful in expression.

Their personalities matched the abilities they controlled: one wielded blazing fire, while the other commanded flowing water.

And the power of water and fire they unleashed was no ordinary water or fire. Its might was no less than that of Lunar True Water and Solar True Fire.

Once Si Wa and Wu Wa had completed their transformations, something miraculous happened. Their realms suddenly soared, bringing the other three babies along with them, and all of them instantly reached the Early Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm.

The Calabash Kids were overjoyed. "Wonderful! We've finally entered the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm. Father, does this mean we can leave Mount Buzhou now?"

Xiao Teng sighed. He had not expected them to become Primordial Unity Golden Immortals so quickly. Children really did grow beyond their father's control.

"Since you have already made up your minds, I will not stop you. But when you leave, the five brothers must stay close together and never separate. Do you understand?"

The five Calabash Kids replied in unison, "Don't worry, Father. We're united as one."

Xiao Teng nodded. "Very well. Go on, then."

With that, filled with anticipation and excitement, they raced toward the outside of the mountain like five joyful birds.

After the five Calabash Kids left, the home became exceptionally quiet. Only Liu Wa and Seventh Gourd remained on the vine, gently swaying in the breeze.

Only then did Xiao Teng suddenly realize that Liu Wa seemed never to have spoken before.

A trace of doubt and worry rose in his heart. Could it be that Liu Wa has yet to awaken his spiritual intelligence?

So he called softly, "Liu Wa, Liu Wa, if you can hear me, answer me."

After a moment, a young voice replied, "I can hear you, Father."

Though the voice was soft, Xiao Teng let out a long breath of relief. "Ah, you really gave me a fright. Why have you been silent all this time?"

Liu Wa's voice carried a hint of loneliness. "It isn't that I don't want to speak. It's just... whenever I spoke before, no one paid attention to me, so I gradually stopped wanting to talk."

Hearing this, Xiao Teng swiftly searched through his memories of the past, only to realize that Liu Wa was absent from his memories of the past several yuanhui.

Liu Wa's presence had been so faint that he was almost impossible to notice. Even Wu Wa and Seventh Gourd, who were beside him, seemed never to have truly noticed him.

Filled with self-reproach, Xiao Teng said sincerely, "I'm sorry. It was Father's negligence."

But Liu Wa obediently replied, "It's all right. I'm already used to it."

Hearing such sensible words, Xiao Teng felt even more pity for him. He secretly resolved that in the days ahead, he would spend more time with Liu Wa and talk to him more. Otherwise, what if the child became withdrawn?

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Teng asked, "Liu Wa, do you have any special abilities?"

Liu Wa gently swayed his body and replied somewhat shyly, "I'm not too sure either. I only know that my greatest ability is making it difficult for others to notice my existence."

Xiao Teng's heart stirred, and he curiously asked, "Can you become invisible?"

Liu Wa replied, "Of course I can become invisible."

As soon as he finished speaking, a gentle flash of light passed over the place where Liu Wa was. Immediately afterward, the sixth calabash vanished without a trace.

Xiao Teng widened his eyes and searched around in astonishment. Yet he discovered that if the calabash's stem had not still been connected to him, he truly would not have been able to sense even the slightest trace of Liu Wa.

If it were merely an ordinary invisibility technique, it might not have been remarkable. But if, after turning invisible, even karmic ties and karmic retribution could not locate him, then this ability was truly terrifying.
