Chapter 72 The Three Pure Ones' Daoist Technique
"Greetings!" Looking at the group of Taiyi Golden Immortals before him, Feng Zichen remained calm and greeted them with a smile, "Your Black Lotus Envoy asked me to bring you a gift from Thunder Swamp!"
"Black Lotus Envoy! What gift?" Hearing Feng Zichen's words, the Taiyi Golden Immortals were initially stunned, then quickly asked.
They weren't afraid of Feng Zichen playing tricks; if a mere Golden Immortal could manage to outwit them, all their millions of years of cultivation would have been wasted.
"It's...these!" At this point, Feng Zichen paused, then suddenly took out the Chaos Pearl and unleashed hundreds of Taiyi Golden Immortal-level innate divine lightning bolts towards them. "
Not good, retreat quickly!" Sensing the power of the innate divine lightning, the Taiyi Golden Immortals surrounding Feng Zichen hastily fled into the distance.
These innate divine lightning bolts were of various types and had different attributes. It was Feng Zichen who captured it with the Chaos Pearl during the sixth level of the Thunder Swamp. It was already on the verge of exploding, but the Chaos Pearl was forcibly suppressed
it. Now, without the Chaos Pearl's suppression, it immediately erupted, its power so great that it caused space to crumble inch by inch. Although the Taiyi Golden Immortals were fast, the Innate Divine Thunder was even faster, catching up to them in an instant and relentlessly striking them.
Feng Zichen, however, had already hidden inside the Chaos Pearl the moment he released the Innate Divine Thunder, quickly fleeing into the distance.
"Damn it!"
These Taiyi Golden Immortals were focused on defending against the Innate Divine Thunder's attack and couldn't spare a hand to stop Feng Zichen. They could only watch him leave, their anger burning, and they roared to the sky.
"Haha! Do you like the gift your Black Lotus Saint Envoy prepared for you?" A voice came from afar, almost making the Great Luo Golden Immortals present vomit blood.
"Ah! No matter where you flee! I will fight you to the death!" A Taiyi Golden Immortal, enraged by Feng Zichen's words, was caught off guard and struck by the Innate Five Elements Divine Lightning. His internal energy became unbalanced, and he coughed up blood.
"Heh! You talk as if you can find me!" Feng Zichen shook his head, completely unconcerned.
Whether it was the Chaos Pearl, Innate Merit, the Primordial Dao Bell, or the World Tree, all possessed the ability to conceal heavenly secrets, not to mention the concealment of Pangu within him. How could a few mere Taiyi Golden Immortals possibly calculate his information?
After determining his direction in the air, Feng Zichen rode the Chaos Pearl eastward. Having been away from the human race for so long, it was time to return and see them, and also to pass down the Innate Eight Trigrams to strengthen the human race.
…
While Feng Zichen was returning to the human race, Xuanqing, led by the Shangqing Daoist, arrived at Kunlun Mountain.
Kunlun Mountain was filled with strange cliffs and towering peaks. On the crimson cliffs, phoenixes sang in pairs; before the sheer walls, a lone unicorn lay.
Black apes offered fruit, deer carried flowers; blue luan danced, phoenixes sang; spirit turtles presented longevity symbols, cranes seized lingzhi mushrooms; rare herbs and flowers never faded, green pines and cypresses remained evergreen.
Above, celestial light shone, the Daoist aura was profound, countless rare flowers and fruits bloomed, and primordial chaos energy descended from the heavens, scattering into the peaks. Truly worthy of being the second most famous mountain in the primordial world, the ancestral vein of the East.
When Xuanqing and Daoist Shangqing ascended Kunlun Mountain, Daoist Taiqing and Daoist Yuqing had been waiting for a long time.
"Come, Xuanqing, quickly come and greet your two senior uncles." Seeing Daoist Taiqing and Daoist Yuqing, Daoist Shangqing quickly pulled Xuanqing to them.
"This is your eldest grand-uncle!" The Shangqing Daoist introduced the elderly Daoist to Xuanqing. Xuanqing obediently stepped forward and greeted, "Greetings, eldest grand-uncle!"
Then, the Shangqing Daoist pointed to the middle-aged Daoist and said, "This is your second grand-uncle!" Xuanqing again obediently greeted, "Greetings, second grand-uncle!"
After introducing Taiqing and Yuqing Daoists to Xuanqing, Shangqing Daoist proudly boasted to his two elder brothers, "Eldest brother, second brother, what do you think of the disciple I've taken in?"
Taiqing Daoist smiled without saying a word, while Yuqing Daoist nodded with satisfaction and said with a slight smile, "Not bad, a promising talent!"
...
Inside the Shangqing Hall, Xuanqing first respectfully bowed to the Three Pure Ones, and then sat cross-legged on the futon, awaiting their instructions.
"Xuanqing, today you have become my disciple, my first disciple, and the foremost person of the Xuanmen in three generations. From now on, you must wholeheartedly cultivate the Great Dao, pass on the lineage of our Xuanmen, and set an example for future Xuanmen disciples. You must never act recklessly or disrupt the order of heaven and earth..." Xuanqing stepped forward, and the Shangqing Daoist spoke to him solemnly.
"This disciple will certainly strive to cultivate and attain enlightenment as soon as possible, and not disgrace the dignity of the Xuanmen!" After hearing the Shangqing Daoist's admonition, Xuanqing immediately declared.
The first disciple of the Xuanmen! He hadn't expected that the Three Pure Ones hadn't yet accepted any disciples, yet he had already acquired this status. In the future, when he went out, identifying himself as a disciple of the Xuanmen would be much more dignified than identifying himself as a disciple of the Three Teachings.
"Very good, this technique will be passed on to you. You should cultivate it diligently!" Just as Xuanqing was lost in thought, the Shangqing Daoist pointed, and a beam of Shangqing immortal light flew out and landed on Xuanqing's forehead. It was the "Shangqing Immortal Technique."
"This is the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, capable of capturing people and objects, emitting five-colored light to dazzle the senses of enemies. I obtained it at the Treasure Distribution Rock. Take it and refine it for protection!" Then, Daoist Shangqing took out a string of pearls and handed it to Xuanqing.
"Thank you, Master!" Xuanqing was overjoyed and quickly bowed. Although it sounded a bit harsh, wasn't his purpose in becoming a disciple precisely for the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl? Now that his goal was achieved, he was naturally overjoyed.
After doing all this, Daoist Shangqing smiled and looked at his two elder brothers beside him.
"You..." Daoist Taiqing smiled and pointed at Daoist Shangqing. With a wave of his hand, a beam of Taiqing Immortal Light flew out and landed in Xuanqing's mind. "I will pass on this 'Taiqing Immortal Manual' to you. You should comprehend it carefully!"
Daoist Yuqing also smiled and passed on the 'Yuqing Immortal Manual' with a wave of his hand. Currently, the Three Pure Ones had not yet become saints, and there had been no ideological conflict; their relationship was very close! Since the Shangqing Daoist had accepted a disciple, they naturally had to show their gratitude.
"Thank you both, Uncle Masters!" Xuanqing stepped forward and thanked them.
"It's not that we're stingy or unwilling to give you spiritual treasures! It's just that your cultivation is too low; even if we gave you spiritual treasures, you wouldn't be able to refine them, and it would only hinder your cultivation—a loss outweighing the gain! Once your cultivation improves, we'll make it up to you!" Yuqing Daoist explained to Xuanqing with a smile.
"Uncle Masters are too kind. I'm already very satisfied with two immortal techniques; how could I dare to ask for more spiritual treasures!" Xuanqing shook his head with a wry smile.
"Alright, Third Brother has accepted a disciple; he must have a lot to say. We should leave now and not disturb them any longer." With that, Taiqing Daoist pulled Yuqing Daoist away.
