Hongxuan was more than happy with this arrangement.
But Zhao Gongming was clearly a tier below.
Besides, he could use this treasure himself and transform it into the Twelve Heavens.
Perhaps he could comprehend more laws and create more top-tier divine abilities.
After imprinting the Twelve Sea-Quelling Pearls with his primordial spirit, he put them away.
He then took out the Five Elements Spirit Orbs again.
And began raising his cultivation.
Deep within the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace, in Dragon Abyss.
The Eastern Sea Dragon King came once more, his face brimming with excitement.
"Ancestor, we have just received definite news. Ling'er has already advanced to the Grand Golden Immortal realm!"
"Oh? Then what of Ling'er's fate tribulation? Is she all right?"
"She has successfully passed her fate tribulation. Ancestor's calculations were correct—it was Hongxuan who saved Ling'er."
"As for how he saved her, this junior was unable to find out."
Even so, Ao Guang was still thrilled.
The great weight that had been pressing on his heart had finally vanished.
From now on, he no longer needed to worry about his beloved daughter's life.
"Hahaha, good! Excellent!"
"The person Azure Dragon saw within the Heavenly Secret was this Hongxuan."
"No, we must deepen his ties with the dragon race."
"When the dragon race faces calamity in the future, he will also come to our aid in time!"
Compared to Ao Guang, Candle Dragon seemed even more excited.
For all these years, he had been calculating the identity of the person Azure Dragon had mentioned.
Now, he had finally found him.
Naturally, he had to seize this opportunity.
The dragon race was now burdened by karma, and apart from Ao Ling'er, there were hardly any outstanding descendants.
This time, if not for Hongxuan, even their most exceptional descendant might have perished.
As time passed.
The dragon race might only grow more and more decrepit in the future.
As one of the dragon race's last remaining ancestors, he absolutely could not watch this happen.
He had to find a way to prevent it.
Forging good relations with Hongxuan was one of the most crucial steps.
After pondering for a long while.
Candle Dragon took out a seed that radiated green life energy.
A trace of reluctance and heartache flashed through his eyes.
"Ao Guang, find an opportunity to deliver this item into Hongxuan's hands."
"Do not let him feel indebted to the dragon race, but make sure he sincerely feels grateful toward us!"
After thinking briefly, Ao Guang understood his ancestor's meaning.
He was already considering how to deliver the item to Hongxuan.
"Ancestor, what kind of seed is this? What is its use?"
"I do not know either. When my elder brother was still alive, he treasured this seed greatly."
"Unfortunately, no matter how my elder brother nurtured and planted it, he could not make it sprout and grow."
"Yet it is filled with vitality, and its aura is exceptionally powerful."
"Though precious, it is unfortunate that it has no affinity with our dragon race."
"Since that is the case, gifting this seed to Hongxuan may bring about miraculous results."
How could something Progenitor Dragon had always valued be ordinary?
Back then, even a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure had not been treasured as highly as this seed.
Its value was definitely greater than that of a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Of course.
That was only if it could grow.
Otherwise, it would be nothing more than a useless seed.
"Yes, Ancestor. This junior knows what to do!"
Boom!
That day, on Three Immortals Island, the Three Xiao Sisters were teaching Ao Ling'er new Jie Sect spells.
Suddenly, the sky erupted with a thunderous blast.
Immediately afterward, endless, surging spiritual energy formed a massive funnel and poured directly toward Hongxuan at the center of the island.
"This is... the phenomenon of a breakthrough!"
"Three thousand years ago, Hongxuan had only advanced to the middle stage of the Grand Golden Immortal realm. How is he breaking through again now?"
"Does he not have bottlenecks?"
"Yeah, another breakthrough means he is at the late stage of the Grand Golden Immortal realm, doesn't it?"
"That was close. Fortunately, I have already reached the perfected Grand Golden Immortal realm. Bixiao, it seems you're still at the late stage of the Grand Golden Immortal realm, right?"
"Hehe, the little fellow we once raised is gradually catching up to us!"
Qiong Xiao chuckled, her gaze toward Bixiao full of teasing.
This left Bixiao quite dissatisfied.
Hongxuan was actually at the same realm as her. Wouldn't she lose face in front of him from now on?
Damn it, why does this guy cultivate so fast?!
"What terrifying spiritual energy!"
"Qiong Xiao, Bixiao, when we broke through to the late stage of the Grand Golden Immortal realm, we did not cause such a terrifying heavenly phenomenon, did we?"
"That is right, Eldest Sister. Back then, we did not even have a tenth of the spiritual energy this time."
"With such terrifying spiritual energy, it has already far exceeded what a late-stage Grand Golden Immortal can withstand. How has Hongxuan not been blown apart?"
"Perhaps it is because Hongxuan cultivates a body-tempering technique!"
Ao Ling'er also saw the phenomenon in the distance, and her eyes lit up.
Her nominal master had only been at the early stage of the Grand Golden Immortal realm before.
How long had it been, and he was already at the late stage?
Originally, she had not held much respect for her nominal master.
In her understanding, it would not take long for her to surpass him.
But things seemed to have exceeded her imagination.
She grew increasingly curious about this nominal master of hers.
Even the death tribulation that her father and the clan's ancestor could not resolve had been dealt with effortlessly by her nominal master.
How exactly had he done it?
Then she thought of how, ever since taking her as a disciple, he had only met his disciple a few times.
Even her cultivation was taught by the Three Xiao Sisters in his stead.
He was far too irresponsible!
Thinking of this, Ao Ling'er could not help feeling indignant.
Beneath the Ancient Tree of Life.
"Has it already been five thousand years? As expected, cultivating in the Primordial Wilderness leaves one with no concept of time!"
"Back then, I truly could not have imagined it!"
