Laozi was able to put away the Heavenly Yellow Linglong Pagoda.
This meant the others among the Three Pure Ones could certainly do the same.
And if there was anything the three of them had in common, it was definitely Heaven-Opening Merit!
So Tongtian stirred the Heaven-Opening Merit within him.
The Heavenly Yellow Linglong Pagoda trembled slightly, and the next instant, it turned into a streak of flowing light and flew straight before Tongtian.
It really worked!
Joy flashed across Tongtian's face. So subduing a Merit Treasure was actually this simple.
Did this mean that if he encountered a Merit Treasure in the future, he only needed to use Heaven-Opening Merit as bait to subdue it as naturally as water flowing into a channel?
Of course, if his cultivation was sufficient, suppressing it by force could also be done.
But it certainly would not save as much time and effort as this.
Moreover, Heaven-Opening Merit had another marvelous use: it could be used like a mark.
He could directly stamp the Heavenly Yellow Linglong Pagoda with a mark that belonged to him.
In this way, Tongtian's speed in refining the Heavenly Yellow Linglong Pagoda would also become much faster.
If one wanted to fully bring out the might of a supreme treasure, one naturally had to spend time refining it completely once over.
However, with his own mark within it, Tongtian could already bring out a portion of the Heavenly Yellow Linglong Pagoda's might.
As for refining it, he would set aside time for it later.
Buzz!
He had only just taken the supreme treasure into his possession when movement came at the same time from the two balls of light not far away.
Seeing this, Tongtian's expression turned somewhat surprised. It was actually not Laozi who took form first?
Instead, Laozi and Yuanshi were taking form together?
Rumble!
When the figures of the two appeared between heaven and earth, heavenly tribulation once again descended from above the firmament.
Among them, Laozi's appearance had changed into that of an elder who looked full of wisdom.
Yuanshi, meanwhile, had taken the image of a middle-aged man.
After successfully taking form, the two were also sizing up the surrounding environment.
Then they saw Tongtian, who was already on the summit of Kunlun Mountain.
This left both of them somewhat astonished. They had not expected that before them, Tongtian had already taken form.
Rumble!
At this moment, the heavenly tribulation had fully descended, enveloping the entire sky above Kunlun Mountain.
Seeing this, Laozi and Yuanshi were in no hurry to speak with Tongtian.
The urgent task at hand was still to pass the Transformation Tribulation first.
Thus, the two immediately circulated their own power and began resisting the heavenly tribulation.
Because they had not yet cultivated or comprehended other divine abilities, what the two used was their own origin power.
That was, the two kinds of celestial light: Taiqing and Yuqing.
Tongtian silently watched from afar. With the two's cultivation, passing the heavenly tribulation was naturally extremely easy.
There were many Innate Gods in the Primordial World, but the footing of the Three Pure Ones was clearly that of the three most top-tier among the Innate Gods.
A mere Transformation Tribulation naturally posed not the slightest threat.
As Taiqing Celestial Light and Yuqing Celestial Light appeared together between heaven and earth, the heavenly tribulation, brimming with destructive power, was soon defeated.
The auras on Laozi and Yuanshi also began to rise, likewise reaching the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm!
Tongtian watched for a moment, and suddenly a notification sounded in his mind.
You observed Laozi and Yuanshi using divine abilities at close range. With heaven-defying comprehension, you successfully comprehended the divine abilities Taiqing Celestial Light and Yuqing Celestial Light.
Joy rose in Tongtian's heart. He had not expected to actually comprehend Laozi's and Yuanshi's divine abilities as well.
In this way, he now controlled the origin divine abilities possessed by all three of the Three Pure Ones.
When his cultivation was higher in the future, perhaps he could even try fusing the three celestial lights into one.
If he could accomplish that, his battle strength would definitely be greatly increased as well.
At this moment, Laozi and Yuanshi's expressions were somewhat hesitant.
Among the Three Pure Ones, the first to take form was Tongtian. In that case, did that not mean they had to acknowledge Tongtian as their eldest brother?
But according to the inherited memories within their origins, Tongtian was clearly supposed to be the third brother.
How were they supposed to tell now?
Tongtian had already walked forward by then and said with a smile, "The three of us brothers have finally all taken form."
Laozi looked somewhat embarrassed, not knowing for a moment how he should address Tongtian.
He looked toward Yuanshi, but Yuanshi was also utterly bewildered.
Were they supposed to go by their origin, or by who had transformed first?
Seeing the awkward looks on their faces, Tongtian immediately knew what the two of them were tangled up over.
He could not help laughing inwardly.
Becoming the eldest brother of the two?
He had no such idea, and to him, there was nothing bad about being the youngest.
At least if he called them Elder Brother, then when he ran into troublesome matters in the future, the two of them surely would not have the nerve to refuse to help him, right?
Looking at it this way, being the youngest was better.
Thus, he took the initiative to cup his hands and said, "Eldest Brother, Second Brother."
Seeing Tongtian take the initiative to resolve this problem, Laozi and Yuanshi were instantly no longer embarrassed.
"Hahaha, Third Brother truly has extraordinary talent."
"Your speed in taking form was actually even one step faster than the two of us."
Laozi used laughter to cover up his earlier awkwardness.
Yuanshi also smiled and said, "We Three Pure Ones are Pangu Sect Disciples. In the Primordial World from now on, we should naturally cross the river in the same boat."
Tongtian nodded and said, "That is only natural."
"We Three Pure Ones are one body. If we do not join hands and advance together, how are we to establish ourselves in the Primordial World?"
"So long as you two elder brothers do not fail the bond between brothers, I will have nothing else to say."
At this moment, there were no conflicts between the Three Pure Ones at all, and both Laozi and Yuanshi agreed with these words.
Seeing this, Tongtian did not say too much more.
In any case, he had already put his words up front. If these two schemed against him in the future, then they could not blame him for flipping the table outright.
"We have only just successfully taken form. What plans do you two elder brothers have next?"
Tongtian looked at the two of them and asked.
As a transmigrator, he knew there were many places in the Primordial World that could be called treasured lands.
So his next plan was naturally to go traveling through the Primordial World.
However, he still had to inform the two of them about this.
Yuanshi wore a contemplative expression and said, "We have only recently taken form. We should first enter seclusion and cultivate for a period of time."
Laozi also said, "Indeed. Although our foundations are not weak, cultivation has no end, and we must not stand still and stop advancing."
"Next, we should enter seclusion and cultivate painstakingly."
"And strive to raise our cultivation as soon as possible."
Tongtian shook his head and said, "Then you two elder brothers should enter seclusion on Kunlun Mountain!"
"The Primordial World is vast. I am preparing to go travel through it."
"And see along the way whether I can obtain some opportunities."
Hearing this, both Laozi and Yuanshi were somewhat reluctant to part with him, and Laozi said directly, "The Primordial World has not been all that peaceful these years."
"Third Brother, why not wait until your cultivation has increased somewhat, and then we can go out traveling together?"
Tongtian said with a cheerful smile, "No matter. You two elder brothers need not worry for me."
"I have the Merit Treasure Heavenly Yellow Linglong Pagoda in my hands, so protecting myself definitely will not be a problem."
Hearing this, Laozi and Yuanshi were set at ease.
After Tongtian's figure left, Laozi felt an emptiness in his heart, as if he had lost some important opportunity.
It was just that the opportunity had already fallen into Tongtian's hands, and Tongtian was his brother besides.
What else could he say?
