Senior Brother, Hurry and Go!

Upon hearing the boy's words, Guangchengzi and the others no longer hesitated and hurriedly went into the Empress Wa Palace.

Among the crowd, True Person Taiyi was also there, following behind Guangchengzi and the others.

However, when he reached the boy, he inexplicably stopped.

He looked the boy over with a somewhat strange gaze, and then said,

"What is this junior brother's Daoist name? Have we ever met him before?"

For some reason, he suddenly had a feeling that the boy in front of him looked very kind.

He had a feeling, the Unseen, that he might have a special connection with this boy.

"Lingzhuzi greets Senior Brother."

The young boy bowed respectfully to the True Person Taiyi.

"I was originally a stone bead that took human form within the Empress Wa Palace, and I have been cultivating Empress Wa Palace since my birth,"

"I've never left this place, so I suppose my senior brother and I have never met."

"However, I have a very warm feeling towards my senior brother."

Lingzhuzi said with a smile.

"I see."

True Person Taiyi nodded, then smiled and said...

"I guess this is what they call fate. Even though it's our first time meeting, I feel like we're destined to be together."

As he said this, True Person Taiyi thought for a moment,

He flipped his hand and took out two items: a gold ring and a red ribbon.

"Since it's our first meeting, I don't have anything particularly impressive to offer, senior brother."

"Then I will give you these two protective magic Law Treasure that my master bestowed upon me."

After saying this, True Person Taiyi placed the two items into Lingzhuzi's hand.

Lingzhuzi had no choice but to accept it, unable to refuse.

Immediately afterwards, True Person Taiyi transmitted the Mnemonic for controlling the two treasures into Lingzhuzi's mind.

"Lingzhuzi, both of these treasures are Innate Spirit Treasure."

"The golden circle is called the Qiankun Ring, and it possesses the power to be indestructible and to Bingtian and subdue the earth."

"The red ribbon is called the Heaven-Confounding Sash, which can split stars and cleave seas, and wrap around and entangle enemies."

"Now that I have attained Quasi-Sage, and possess other treasures, I will give them to you."

"Innate Spirit Treasure?!"

Lingzhuzi was greatly alarmed!

He hadn't expected that True Person Taiyi would give him such a valuable gift on their first meeting.

He hurriedly tried to return the two items in his hand to True Person Taiyi.

At the magical contest at the Empress Wa Palace, he received the prize for winning: a Innate Spirit Treasure.

It was precisely because he possessed a Innate Spirit Treasure that...

Therefore, Lingzhuzi understood even more clearly how powerful and precious Innate Spirit Treasure were.

The True Person Taiyi immediately gifted him two Innate Spirit Treasure.

This gift was far too heavy for Lingzhuzi.

However, True Person Taiyi stopped Lingzhuzi's actions.

"We are destined to meet; these are just two Innate Spirit Treasure, nothing more."

"This...!"

Lingzhuzi couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to accept it.

Holding the Qiankun Ring and the Heaven-Confounding Sash, Lingzhuzi gritted his teeth and finally pulled True Person Taiyi aside to whisper the incantation.

"Senior brother, don't just wait here."

"I heard from the Divine Venerable Lord that the position of Heavenly Emperor has already been decided."

"No one who comes here today is allowed."

"Furthermore, the Divine Venerable Lord said that all of you senior brothers and sisters have impure intentions and are trying to take shortcuts."

This time he has prepared his methods to teach you a lesson.

"What?!"

True Person Taiyi was also startled.

He subconsciously turned his head to look at the Empress Wa Palace.

But Guangchengzi and the others had already gone far away after entering the Empress Wa Palace.

"By the way, senior brother, although the position of Heavenly Emperor is no longer possible, the position of Nether Emperor still exists."

"A few days ago, the Lady Houtu visited the Empress Wa Palace,"

"We inquire of the Divine Venerable Deity, who should be appointed as the Nether Emperor?"

"The Divine Venerable lord said that the Lady Houtu should set up three trials in the Netherworld World,"

Whoever has the fortuitous opportunity to break through the three barriers in the Netherworld will become the Nether Emperor!

Lingzhuzi gritted his teeth and revealed another secret.

Lingzhuzi revealed too many secrets at once, leaving True Person Taiyi completely dumbfounded.

But soon, a jolt went through him.

He had a feeling that what Lingzhuzi said was probably true!

Thinking of this, he said to Lingzhuzi,

"Thank you for your guidance, junior brother!"

Then, he became somewhat worried about Lingzhuzi.

If Lingzhuzi tells him these secrets, he will likely be severely punished when he returns.

Seemingly understanding what True Person Taiyi was thinking, Lingzhuzi smiled.

"Senior brother, don't worry about me. This is our first meeting."

"My senior brother has bestowed upon me such a precious treasure; such kindness could never be repaid, even if I were to be shattered to pieces."

"Moreover, Lady Nüwa and the Divine Venerable God are kind-hearted and won't make things difficult for me,"

"At most, I'll be sentenced to a thousand years of solitary confinement."

"It's worth spending a thousand years in a dark room for my senior brother!"

Lingzhuzi spoke so casually that even True Person Taiyi couldn't help but feel a little moved.

He knew that things were probably not that simple.

"Senior brother, please don't worry about me so much anymore."

"You should hurry to the Netherworld World and pay your respects to the Lady Houtu; perhaps there's still a chance!"

"If someone else gets there first, then there really won't be another chance."

Lingzhuzi urged True Person Taiyi.

"In that case, I'll take my leave."

After hesitating for a moment, True Person Taiyi finally nodded.

He then thanked Lingzhuzi profusely, and quickly turned around, riding his escape light straight towards the Netherworld.

After True Person Taiyi left, Lingzhuzi took a deep breath, then turned around and walked into the Empress Wa Palace as well.

Inside the Empress Wa Palace, after Guangchengzi and the others entered,

After walking for an unknown amount of time, they arrived at a peach grove.

Inside the peach grove, a young girl was already waiting.

Upon seeing them, the girl bowed slightly.

"Hongfu Nü greets all senior brothers and sisters."

After bowing, Hongfu Nü said again,

"I am here to await the arrival of my fellow disciples by Divine Venerable."

Guangchengzi and his group all nodded in agreement.

"This is the first trial that the Divine Venerable Lord has set up for you all: the Peach Grove."

After exchanging greetings, Hongfu Nü Nu wasted no time and went straight to the point.

"These peach trees are Innate Spirit Root Flat Peach Tree. There are over 13,000 of them."

"They bloom every nine thousand years, bear fruit once every nine thousand years, and then the fruit takes another nine thousand years to ripen."

"These Flat Peach Tree have only just finished bearing fruit."

"The fruits have already been picked by the Divine Venerable and taken to refine elixirs."

"But the Great Lord Divine Venerable said he wants to eat more peaches."

"Therefore, the first test is for all of you senior brothers and sisters to find a way to cultivate a batch of Flat Peach."

"Of course, the premise is that the Flat Peach Spirit Tree cannot be damaged."

This will help produce a batch of Flat Peach!

Guangchengzi and the others were a little confused.

But they quickly realized that without harming their Spirit Root, they could only accelerate the growth of the Flat Peach.

There are essentially two methods.

One method involves nourishing it with various forms of Spiritual Qi.

One method is for them to expend their own Law Power to bring it to life.

In other words, one approach is to make them bleed, and the other is to make them exert their strength.
