Penglai.
Three Lights Divine Water Lake.
Golden Sunlight Divine Water, silver Moonlight Divine Water, and purple Starlight Divine Water intertwined, forming an incomparably pure vitality of creation. A faint tricolored immortal mist shrouded the entire lake year-round.
Within the Great Wilderness, Three Lights Divine Water was undoubtedly a supreme healing treasure.
Sunlight Divine Water could wear away blood essence, bones, and flesh.
Moonlight Divine Water could corrode Primordial Spirit and souls.
Starlight Divine Water could devour and dissolve true spirits and thoughts.
Each was a Slaughter treasure when used alone, but once blended in a special ratio, extreme yin gave rise to yang, transforming them into Creation Divine Water capable of reviving the dead, restoring flesh to bare bones, and even nourishing Innate Spiritual Roots.
If ordinary cultivators obtained even a small bottle, they would normally wish they could seal it beneath a dozen layers of restrictions.
They would never be willing to use it unless they were gravely wounded and on the verge of death.
But at this very moment—
Bixiao stood by the lake, hugging her knees as she studied it for a long while. An entirely different use suddenly popped into her mind.
Soak in it.
It probably wouldn't hurt, right?
She had cultivated in an ordinary spirit spring near Treasure Cliff before. Soaking in it had indeed felt quite comfortable.
Now, this Three Lights Divine Water was countless times better than an ordinary spirit spring.
Wouldn't the effects be even more outrageous?
Of course, while Bixiao had a lively temperament, she was not actually foolish.
She did not jump straight in.
Instead, she first ran off to find Luxuan.
"Master."
"I want to ask you something."
Luxuan was beneath the Enlightenment Ancient Tree, sorting through several immortal materials he had just acquired. Hearing her, he looked up.
"Speak."
Bixiao pointed into the distance.
"Can Three Lights Divine Water be used for soaking?"
Luxuan's movements paused.
"Soaking?"
"I mean sitting in it while cultivating."
Bixiao explained earnestly.
"I feel that the creation aura within it is quite compatible with my Innate Origin. If I absorb it directly, it might be faster than simply refining spirit fruits."
Luxuan did not immediately refuse.
Although Three Lights Divine Water was precious, for Innate divine beings at the Golden Immortal realm, as long as they did not recklessly swallow it, using it to temper the body and nourish the Primordial Spirit would indeed be tremendously beneficial.
Besides, there was an entire lakeful here.
It would just sit there otherwise.
"You can."
Luxuan nodded.
"But don't absorb too much at once."
"Your cultivation is still low. The power of creation within the Three Lights Divine Water is too strong. If you really overfill yourself and something goes wrong, I'll have to fish you out."
Bixiao's face immediately lit up.
"Got it!"
Before her words had even faded, she had already transformed into a streak of emerald light and run off.
Not long afterward.
She had dragged Yunxiao and Qiongxiao to the lakeside as well.
After hearing her younger sister's idea, Yunxiao's first reaction was that it was rather wasteful.
Her second reaction was—
Master had actually agreed.
"This is Three Lights Divine Water."
Yunxiao could not help reminding her.
"I know."
Bixiao had already removed her shoes and socks, dipping her two fair little feet into the shallow water by the shore. Her eyes narrowed in comfort.
"But Master said we could soak in it."
Yunxiao looked at the entire lake of Three Lights Divine Water and, for a moment, did not know where to begin criticizing.
Great Luo cultivators outside would be delighted for ages if they obtained a single bottle.
Her younger sister was using it to soak her feet.
If word got out, a crowd of Great Wilderness cultivators would probably rush to Penglai overnight and hold up banners in protest at the entrance.
The gap in resources between people was sometimes even more heartbreaking than the gap in cultivation.
Qiongxiao did not dwell on it for long.
She followed the Slaughter Sword Dao and needed a stronger body and Primordial Spirit to bear her sword intent. Since Master believed Three Lights Divine Water would help, then she would use it.
Thus, half a day later.
All three sisters sat cross-legged at the edge of Three Lights Divine Water Lake.
Naturally, this was not bathing in the ordinary mortal sense.
They merely immersed their bodies in Creation Divine Water, using their own mana to guide its pure power into their meridians, Primordial Spirit, and origins.
But even so.
If outsiders saw this scene, it would still be enough to make quite a few great powers' eyelids twitch.
Once the vitality of creation within Three Lights Divine Water entered their bodies, the effects were almost immediate.
The minor stagnation in Yunxiao's mana, left behind by repeatedly forcing the Primordial Unity Golden Dipper into action, swiftly vanished. Her Primordial Spirit became increasingly clear, and the many insights into Array Dao she had gained from the Myriad Immortals Formation began resurfacing.
Soft sword cries rang out from within Qiongxiao's body.
Under the nourishment of Creation Divine Water, some of the excessively sharp Sword Dao true intent within the Mystic Origin Immortal-Slaying Sword gradually fused with her body. It no longer damaged her meridians whenever she circulated it a little too far, as it had in the past.
The most obvious changes, however, occurred in Bixiao.
She was naturally lively, and the path she cultivated involved spatial transformations. When comprehending the Dao, she often jumped from one thing to another without any order.
Now that Three Lights Divine Water had cleansed her Primordial Spirit, many scattered insights began linking themselves together. Her spatial movement, which had originally only reached several hundred li, rapidly stabilized as well.
Luxuan sat in the distance.
Three faint yet unceasing streams of growth feedback entered his Primordial Spirit one after another.
They were not explosive.
But they were steady.
In particular, all three of their Innate Origins were slowly becoming purer.
After the hundredfold return, Luxuan could even clearly sense that his connection to the Penglai Origin had tightened by another thread.
"Just as expected."
"Good resources need to be put to use."
Luxuan nodded lightly.
Many great powers in the Great Wilderness liked to hoard their treasures.
They could not bear to eat spirit roots.
They could not bear to use divine water.
After obtaining a spirit treasure, they would refine it for tens of thousands of years first.
They had something of a hoarder's mentality.
But to Luxuan, treasures left sitting around were merely inventory.
Only when they were truly converted into cultivation did they become value.
Of course.
That view rested on the foundation that he had enough resources.
If he had only one drop of Three Lights Divine Water left in his pocket, he would not be so idle as to use it to wash his hands.
A hundred years later.
Yunxiao was the first to open her eyes.
She did not rush to leave. Instead, she raised a hand and summoned the Primordial Unity Golden Dipper.
The golden dipper floated above Three Lights Divine Water.
As Yunxiao circulated her mana, the vapor of water and clouds above the entire lake began moving on its own according to a special trajectory.
One stream.
Two streams.
Nine streams.
Nine currents of cloud qi crossed endlessly through the air like nine rivers.
Yunxiao quietly watched this scene.
The sight of the Myriad Immortals Formation she had observed before surfaced in her mind once again.
The Myriad Immortals Formation used the immortals as its nodes.
The momentum of heaven and earth as its connecting lines.
Dongwang Gong as its core.
Then what about her own formation?
Did it have to use formation flags?
Did it have to be set up in advance?
Why could she not use clouds?
Why could she not use water?
Clouds had no fixed form.
Water had no constant momentum.
If the Primordial Unity Golden Dipper served as the core and all the clouds and water between heaven and earth were turned into the formation's momentum, then the formation itself could change according to its enemies.
At this thought.
The light in Yunxiao's eyes grew brighter and brighter.
Formation markings flew from her fingertips one after another.
At first, they still followed fixed trajectories.
But later, they gradually merged into the surrounding clouds and water.
Qiongxiao and Bixiao had already finished cultivating.
The two stood on the shore without making a sound to disturb her.
Luxuan had somehow arrived atop a distant mountain peak.
As he watched the formation taking shape around Yunxiao, clear interest appeared in his eyes.
This time.
No one gave her the answer.
Nor did anyone hand her a ready-made formation for her to imitate.
This was the first time Yunxiao had truly created something of her own from nothing.
The formation had yet to take shape.
Yet its essence had already appeared.
Luxuan could vaguely see within it a few shadows of the future Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation that would shake the Great Wilderness.
Yunxiao, however, was still far from reaching that level.
But she had found the right direction.
"Nine cloud rivers..."
Yunxiao murmured softly.
The next instant.
Her hands suddenly came together.
Boom!
Above Three Lights Divine Water Lake, nine massive cloud rivers surged into the sky at once.
The cloud-water spiritual qi across all Penglai seemed to be drawn by something, gathering here madly.
Luxuan's eyes lit up slightly.
"It's about to succeed."
