The preciousness of the Three Lights Divine Water is imaginable, yet Chen Xuan actually said he would make it rain Three Lights Divine Water for three days and three nights.

This couldn't help but greatly surprise the Red Cloud Ancestor and Zhen Yuanzi, who even looked at Chen Xuan with disbelief.

Chen Xuan smiled, and a small black banner instantly appeared in the sky. It was Chen Xuan's true form, the Profound Origin Water Control Banner.

As the Profound Origin Water Control Banner appeared, bursts of water mist filled the entire garden.

Immediately after, this water mist condensed into a rain cloud, which floated above the Ginseng Fruit Tree.

In the blink of an eye, a fine drizzle began to fall from the sky, directly bathing the Ginseng Fruit Tree in the Three Lights Divine Water.

The ginseng fruits on the tree instantly became even more full of spiritual energy. It was as if they were about to develop sentience, looking even more like real babies.

Since Chen Xuan had already fulfilled his part, Zhen Yuanzi naturally couldn't go back on his word.

Zhen Yuanzi circled the Ginseng Fruit Tree once, finally choosing a branch.

"Little friend, do you think this branch is suitable? If little friend thinks it's acceptable, this poor Daoist will take it down now."

Chen Xuan looked up and saw that the branch was as thick as a wrist, and a spiritual ginseng fruit hung on it.

"Then I thank Uncle-Master Zhen Yuanzi," Chen Xuan said after nodding.

Hearing Chen Xuan agree, Zhen Yuanzi didn't hesitate at all. With a wave of his hand, he broke off that branch of the Ginseng Fruit Tree.

Indeed, as the branch of the Ginseng Fruit Tree was broken off, the spiritual energy of the Ginseng Fruit Tree also rapidly drained away.

Fortunately, the Three Lights Divine Water took effect, causing a new branch to grow where the branch had been broken off.

As the new branch grew, the loss of spiritual energy from the Ginseng Fruit Tree also stopped, and it once again burst forth with vitality.

Zhen Yuanzi handed the Ginseng Fruit Tree branch in his hand to Chen Xuan. "Little friend, this branch of the Ginseng Fruit Tree, this poor Daoist gives it to you.

As for whether it can be successfully transplanted and whether it can bear ginseng fruits in the future, that will depend on little friend's fortune and creation."

Chen Xuan smiled and nodded. He immediately closed his eyes slightly and immersed his consciousness into the Treasure Distribution Cliff space.

Ever since Chen Xuan obtained the Treasure Distribution Cliff, with the help of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, he had evolved the special space into the Treasure Distribution Cliff space.

Chen Xuan's consciousness was in the Treasure Distribution Cliff space, looking at the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill Tree before him. At the same time, he took out a small knife.

Although this small knife looked ordinary, Chen Xuan had put in a great deal of effort to create it.

First, he used the Nine Heavens Breath Soil as the main material, and then countless Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures as auxiliary materials. It took him two thousand years, on and off, to refine it.

Moreover, the place where this small knife was refined was none other than Dao Ancestor Hongjun's Purple Cloud Palace.

This was also why Chen Xuan was full of energy while listening to the Saint's Path in the Purple Cloud Palace, even though he clearly didn't understand it.

Because Chen Xuan was using the great Dao principles explained by Dao Ancestor Hongjun to empower this small knife in his hand.

Now, this small knife not only possessed the Power of Creation, but also contained a trace of Dao Rhythm.

And the purpose of Chen Xuan refining this small knife was to graft the Ten Great Innate Spiritual Roots.

This idea was not a sudden whim of Chen Xuan's, but a sentence that was imprinted in his mind when he transformed and attained the Dao.

The Ten Great Spiritual Roots are born from one body, the Five Directional Treasure Banners transform into wind.

Four more lotus platforms obtained, then the boundless body of creation is achieved.

That is why Chen Xuan went to great lengths to obtain a branch of the Ginseng Fruit Tree from Zhen Yuanzi.

Now that he had the Ginseng Fruit Tree branch, Chen Xuan began his first fusion.

With a swift motion, Chen Xuan cut off a branch from the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill Tree.

Immediately after, Chen Xuan grafted the branch of the Ginseng Fruit Tree directly onto the severed branch of the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill Tree.

At this moment, Chen Xuan's heart was in his throat, because even he didn't know if his understanding was correct.

After all, for Chen Xuan, the concept of the Ten Great Spiritual Roots growing together could only be interpreted as the Ten Great Spiritual Roots growing from a single root.

And the only way to achieve this was through grafting.

As the Three Lights Divine Water enveloped the joint, something unexpected happened.

The branch of the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill Tree that Chen Xuan had cut off transformed into a stream of spiritual energy and flew back into the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill Tree.

A new branch of the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill Tree grew from the joint.

And it began to slowly devour the Ginseng Fruit Tree branch that Chen Xuan had grafted on.

In just the blink of an eye, the Ginseng Fruit Tree branch was completely devoured.

This couldn't help but make Chen Xuan sigh in his heart, feeling that his grafting method seemed to be ineffective.

Or perhaps, he had chosen the wrong main root for grafting; he shouldn't have used the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill Tree, but rather other spiritual roots.

Just as Chen Xuan was lost in thought, the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill Tree changed again.

At this time, the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill Tree looked no different from before.

Its nine lush branches were still full of vitality, and its main trunk was still thick and sturdy.

However, on the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill Tree, not only were there Nine Revolutions Golden Pills, but also Ginseng Fruits appearing every now and then.

"It worked! It seems I chose the right Grafting Technique," Chen Xuan said excitedly.

Red Cloud Ancestor and Zhen Yuanzi had no idea what Chen Xuan was doing at the moment.

They only knew that his expression kept changing from sorrowful to excited, which couldn't help but make them a little worried about Chen Xuan.

Fortunately, Chen Xuan opened his eyes at this moment, and there was nothing out of the ordinary about him.

This couldn't help but make Zhen Yuanzi and Red Cloud Ancestor breathe a sigh of relief.

If anything were to happen to the first disciple of the Three Pure Ones in their home, they would truly be in deep trouble.

Chen Xuan smiled and bowed to Zhen Yuanzi, "Thank you, Uncle Zhen Yuanzi, for the Ginseng Fruit Tree branch you gave me.

I, Chen Xuan, will remember this favor. I will definitely repay the kindness of today's gift when I have the chance in the future."

Zhen Yuanzi calmed his emotions and said to Chen Xuan, "Little friend, whether it's a favor or not is not important.

This poor Daoist just wants to know what the poem you just gave to Red Cloud means.

I presume, little friend, it wasn't something you imagined out of thin air, but rather something you heard from someone?"

Zhen Yuanzi subconsciously believed that this poem absolutely did not come from Chen Xuan.

At the very least, it should have come from the Three Pure Ones, and it was even possible that it was spoken by Dao Ancestor Hongjun.

Chen Xuan turned to look at Red Cloud Ancestor, sighing and shaking his head, "Although Uncle Red Cloud is a good person, he is also a hopelessly good person.

Because Uncle Red Cloud gave up his seat in the Purple Cloud Palace, another person lost their Primordial Violet Qi.

This Primordial Violet Qi is the foundation of the Great Dao. If Uncle Red Cloud hadn't gotten it, it would be one thing, but Uncle Red Cloud just happened to get it.

Do the two of you think that the person who lost the Primordial Violet Qi because of Uncle Red Cloud wouldn't hold a grudge against Uncle Red Cloud?

Furthermore, the others who obtained the Primordial Violet Qi were either the Ancestor's direct disciples or registered disciples. Naturally, others wouldn't dare to target them.

But what about Uncle Red Cloud? Uncle Red Cloud isn't even considered a registered disciple! If it were me, I would also target Uncle Red Cloud if I were going to steal."

Chen Xuan's words were like a clap of thunder, instantly causing Zhen Yuanzi and Red Cloud Ancestor to stand frozen in place.
