Chapter 554 Thanks to Nature for Its Gifts (Seeking monthly votes! Seeking further subscriptions!)
"You said it yourself, and it's not so easy to repay my favors."

Wu Xian smiled slightly, retrieved the Samsara Disc and the damaged Dao Bell into his inner universe cave, then turned his gaze to the Xuan Domain and said leisurely:
"Now that things are settled here, it's time for us to go find Goddess Liu."

"Do you know where the Willow Goddess is!"

Shi Hao was surprised.

Willow Goddess has been mysterious lately and hasn't appeared for a long time. Little Tower only said that she seems to have discovered a great opportunity and is trying to find it in the Eight Domains.

Thinking of this, Shi Hao looked at Wu Xian with a hint of resentment. He was the one who arrived first, but why did he always feel that Brother Xian and Goddess Liu were more familiar with each other?

Unaware of Shi Hao's unusual behavior, Wu Xian simply nodded in response, but the smile on his face faded somewhat without him noticing.

Of course he knew where Liu Shen was. According to the normal development of the plot, she should have already found the Primordial Treasure Realm, and soon she would discover the Primordial Gate and enter it with the little tower to seek the opportunity to become an Immortal Emperor.

It can be said that this plot was created by a certain red-haired man who forced Liu Shen and Xiao Ta offline in order to increase the pressure on Huang Tiandi. This was in order to lead to the seven gods descending to the mortal realm, causing Shi Hao to fight to the death and ultimately be reborn.

However, now that he exists in this world, many plot points have changed. He doesn't believe that after this battle, the higher-ups would dare to send people down to their deaths, unless he himself leaves the Lower Realm Eight Domains due to some uncontrollable force.

Furthermore, the Primordial Gate is also a trap, as it connects to the Ultimate Ancient Land where the Corpse Immortal Emperor resides. If one rashly enters it and alerts the Corpse Immortal Emperor, not to mention an Immortal King, even a Quasi-Immortal Emperor would be in grave danger.

Therefore, exploring the Gate of Origin would be of no benefit to Liu Shen at all; on the contrary, it would most likely bring him great calamity. If possible, he would like to help him avoid this great disaster.

Although as long as Shi Hao is there, no matter how much Liu Shen does recklessly, she will not really die. However, if it can be stopped, the development of this world may take a different path. At the same time, it will make the future Desolate Emperor remember his favor and may even bring him additional benefits.

……

Mysterious Domain, near the Immortal Mountain.

Amidst the distorted light and shadow, Wu Xian and Shi Hao appeared here, and immediately noticed intense energy fluctuations not far away, as if some extraordinary figures were fighting inside.

Upon closer inspection, one discovers a massive mountain with five-colored divine light emanating from its surface, locked in a fierce battle with a humanoid being with wings on its back. The void trembles as if boiling water, creating ripples in the air.

Needless to say, the mountain peak radiating five-colored divine light is naturally the Five Elements Mountain, a hidden treasure within the Immortal Mountain.

Like the small tower and the Samsara Disc, this is also a naturally born chaotic artifact. In its prime, it was incredibly powerful, but it was severely damaged in the past and most of its power was sealed. Now it can only barely maintain the strength of the Escape One Realm.

For years he had been hiding in the lower realm, and besides recuperating, his main task was to seal a forbidden existence, namely the humanoid being with golden wings on its back.

Its origins are mysterious. It is the posthumous child of Kunpeng, who placed it in an independent chaotic world and nurtured it for millions of years. It received an innate mark and possessed extraordinary strength. It was able to rival the sect leader as soon as it was born and was infinitely close to the supreme being.

Not only that, he also created the method of primary and secondary bodies, possessing a certain degree of immortality. Even though he made countless enemies in the upper realm and was suppressed by several top sect leaders, he could not die and could only be suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain.

Born with extraordinary talent, he wreaked havoc in the upper realm, only to be suppressed and imprisoned under the Five Elements Mountain... To be honest, Wu Xian strongly suspected that a certain red-haired guy had written the wrong racial attribute. This was not some Kunpengzi at all; he was clearly an alternative version of Sun Wukong. He should have been written as Chaos Demon Ape to fit the plot better.

He mentally grumbled to himself, noticing that the two sides engaged in the fierce battle seemed to have also noticed Wu Xian and his group's presence.

Kunpengzi had just broken free from the seal. Although he was strong, he could not withstand the heavy pressure of the Five Elements Mountain. So when he saw Wu Xian and the others appear, his eyes lit up and he flew directly towards them, seemingly trying to divert trouble and drag them into the mess.

However, to his surprise, the Five Elements Mountain did not pursue. Instead, it let out a sigh, burst forth with dazzling divine light, opened a void passage, and flew towards the upper realm, not daring to linger here.

"Where to go!"

The little tower cried out, its four-story structure glowing as it swept away the chaotic sword energy, attempting to capture it. The Five Elements Mountain ignored it, its surface shimmering with the divine light of the Five Elements, brushing away the chaotic sword energy before calmly flying into the void passage.

However, at that moment, a figure appeared out of nowhere and blocked his way. With a stomp in the void, an immense force descended, and the Yin and Yang energies circulated, obliterating his Five Elements Divine Light and kicking him back into the Xuan Domain.

"Fellow Daoist left in such a hurry, without even saying goodbye. Is this because you look down on me, Wu?"

Wu Xian smiled slightly, like a sunny and cheerful young man, but both Wu Xing Shan and Kun Peng Zi felt a chill run down their spines, as if they were little white rabbits being stared at by a lion, giving them a sense of weakness, helplessness and pitifulness.

Kunpengzi looked wary, sensing a great danger emanating from Wu Xian. With a flap of his golden wings, he fled in one direction at incredible speed.

With a bang, the golden light flew back even faster. Kunpengzi shook its head and climbed out of the pit, its eyes flashing with a fierce light, unruly and arrogant.

But the next second, he was dumbfounded, because he saw a phantom of a Kunpeng hanging high in the sky, emanating the same power attribute as him. He was stunned and at a loss.

"My dear nephew, don't run away yet, I have something to tell you."

With a slight upturn of his lips, Wu Xian turned to look at the silent Five Elements Mountain. Clearly, the other party had already grasped the situation. Surrounded by Kunpengzi, the small tower, and Wu Xian, it was impossible for it to escape to the upper realm. So it simply gave up the futile struggle and waited for the other party's reaction.

Wu Xian didn't say anything, but simply raised his right hand, and each of his five fingertips manifested a rune, which was the materialized original rune of the Five Elements Dao that he had studied over the years.

Upon seeing these runes, the spirit of the Five Elements Mountain couldn't take its eyes off them. Its body shone with a surge of Five Elements divine light, and even the originally solid seal began to loosen.

"I won't say anything more. Follow me, and one day I can break the seal on you, allowing you to return to your peak, or even go further."

Wu Xian said calmly, but his tone carried a strong sense of confidence.

The Five Elements Mountain trembled slightly, as if it were thinking. After a long while, the enormous mountain began to shrink rapidly, until it was only about the size of a palm, and then it flew to Wu Xian's side.

Wu Xian laughed and similarly took the Five Elements Mountain back into his inner universe cave.

This day was truly fruitful. He acquired the Reincarnation Disc, the Endless Immortal Bell, and the Five Elements Mountain—three chaotic magical artifacts that even a Celestial King would covet. Yet, he had them all in his possession.

Nothing more to say, thank you for nature's bounty!

"Congratulations."

Just then, a gentle voice came from behind. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall, slender figure walking towards them. Although the figure was indistinct, it had an extraordinary air about it and a mysterious charm, as if it were detached from the world.

Behind it stood a willow tree, its myriad strands of silk, its branches a vibrant green, radiating vitality, accompanied by wisps of primordial energy, making it incredibly mysterious.

Without a doubt, who else could it be but Liu Shen?

Upon seeing this, Wu Xian looked Liu Shen up and down and asked in surprise, "Have you fully recovered?"
