Primordial Era: From the Creation Lotus to the First Disciple of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 97 Handing over Pangu's essence blood

The clear light swept across the boundless land, crossed the rushing rivers, and tore through layers of clouds.

He incorporated his understanding of the laws of space into his escape technique, which greatly increased his speed. From a distance, he looked like an extremely thin and sharp thread that flashed across the sky, even causing subtle folds in the space he passed through.

Ordinary cultivators, and even demon kings, often only feel a chilling pressure flash by, but when they look up, the figure has already disappeared, leaving them only to be secretly surprised and puzzled.

They traveled in silence, moving at breakneck speed. After just over ten days of driving at full speed, the majestic, ancient, and spiritually resonant Kunlun Mountains came into view.

The familiar aura of purity and righteousness washed over her, bringing a sense of peace to Qinglian, who had been tense, as if she were a wanderer returning home.

He walked straight through the layers of powerful mountain-protecting formations (the formations naturally recognized his presence), heading without stopping towards the most magnificent and ancient Sanqing Palace at the summit, which exuded the richest Taoist aura.

"Disciple Qinglian has returned from her travels and requests an audience with Master!"

Standing outside the palace gate, Qinglian tidied her appearance. Her clear voice pierced through the palace gate and echoed within the main hall, carrying a hint of barely perceptible urgency and excitement.

The palace gates opened silently inward, as if they had never been closed before.

As Qinglian stepped inside, she felt a lightness throughout her body, as if she had stepped from the bustling mortal world into the source of the Great Dao. The palace was filled with chaotic energy, and the earth, water, fire, and wind were gentle and submissive.

The Three Pure Ones remained seated cross-legged on the cloud bed, their figures appearing and disappearing amidst the chaotic energy. Their aura seemed even more profound and ethereal than when they left, unfathomable, as if they were more in harmony with the entire Kunlun Mountains and the mysterious Heavenly Dao.

However, the moment Qinglian stepped into the main hall, the Three Pure Ones opened their eyes almost simultaneously! Three gazes instantly fell upon him, and all of them slightly tightened their grip!

With their near-sainthood and unparalleled insight, they could immediately see the earth-shattering difference in Qinglian's power—its vast, condensed, and almost tangible blood and qi, powerful, robust, and domineering, even faintly carrying a trace of the ancient aura of the Pangu Father God that they both knew and revered!

Its naturally flowing Daoist aura has become incredibly profound, ancient, and all-encompassing, as if it has undergone a complete baptism of the beginning of heaven and earth and the birth of all things, and has undergone an essential sublimation and transformation compared to before!

This is an improvement that no ordinary travel could bring!

"Disciple, you—" For the first time, Yuanshi Tianzun's majestic face revealed undisguised surprise, his gaze sweeping over Qinglian like lightning.

The Tongtian Sect Leader stood up and strode to Qinglian, circling him with interest as he probed him with his divine sense (Qinglian naturally released all his defenses).

He then clicked his tongue in amazement: "Good heavens! Your qi and blood—rich, pure, and unparalleled in strength—are almost on par with those ancestral witch barbarians who reign supreme with their physical bodies! And this Daoist aura of creation—"

It was so ancient it was frightening, even I, as its master, felt a bit of pressure—boy, did you stumble upon the treasure vault of Father Pangu on this trip?

Lao Tzu's gaze was the most profound. He spoke slowly, his voice calm yet hitting the nail on the head: "It seems that you have had many fortunate encounters on this journey, and the matters you have encountered are of great importance."

He vaguely sensed that the causal threads wrapped around Qinglian had become unusually heavy and ancient, even affecting them.

Qinglian calmed herself down and bowed respectfully: "Master, you are wise. I have indeed gained something from this trip, and it is of great importance. Please allow me to explain in detail."

He did not immediately extract the essence blood that was enough to shake the primordial world. Instead, he suppressed his excitement and began his tale by recounting his journey to Wuzhuang Temple, his discussions with Zhen Yuanzi, and their exchange of spiritual roots. He then went on to follow his intuition to the Wu Clan, where he sat down to discuss the Dao with the Twelve Ancestral Witches.

Making friends through martial arts

When he spoke of the Houtu tribe, his heart pounded, and he sensed the call of the Pangu Temple. The expression of the Three Pure Ones, which had been calm and unwavering through countless eons, finally underwent a significant change!

"Summoning from the Pangu Temple?"

Lao Tzu's indifferent gaze suddenly burst forth with an unprecedented brilliance, and his aura of non-action rippled slightly around him.

"The Father God's will has awakened?!" The Primordial Heavenly Venerable leaned forward slightly, and the Jade Purity Immortal Light involuntarily spread out, revealing his extreme inner turmoil.

The Tongtian Sect Leader held his breath, staring intently at Qinglian, as if to confirm the truth of his words.

The Pangu Temple held extraordinary significance for the Three Pure Ones!

That was formed from the heart of the Father God, containing the Father God's last will left in the world!

This is the place where their bloodline and origin belong! Since they took human form, they have roamed the primordial world, but none of them have ever received this honor of being summoned into the temple by the will of the Father God!

Qinglian took a deep breath, knowing that what she was about to say was of utmost importance.

He steadied himself and recounted his experiences in the Pangu Palace in detail, including the vast world behind the heavy stone door, the grandeur and gentleness of the remaining will of the Great God Pangu, and the "interest" that Pangu showed when he saw through his "abnormal" origins but did not pursue the matter.

And then came the supreme blessing—to personally witness the creation of the world, to be baptized by the imperial edict of the Great Dao, to be branded with the laws, to be bestowed with the complete Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, and finally, to receive a solemn entrustment—

As he recounted the story, the expression of the Three Pure Ones changed from initial shock to extreme solemnity, then to an indescribable complexity, excitement, and even a hint of barely perceptible awe!

They could imagine what an amazing scene it was, what a tremendous opportunity it was!

When Qinglian finished speaking, explaining that the Father God had bestowed something upon her, and carefully taking out the three drops of Pangu essence blood from the deepest part of the Qiankun Diagram—which were wrapped in layers of restrictions yet still difficult to completely isolate from their supreme noble aura and the blood essence blood summoned from the deepest part of her bloodline and soul—it was a thunderous roar!

For the first time, the vast, star-like aura surrounding the Three Pure Ones Daoist Venerables began to fluctuate violently and uncontrollably! The chaotic energy within the entire Three Pure Ones Palace boiled and churned in response!

It was a supreme resonance and throbbing that originated from the deepest part of the primordial spirit and the most fundamental source of bloodline!

Faced with these three drops of slightly trembling, slowly flowing essence blood, as if they were alive, they seemed to see the source of their own lives, and felt an incomparably intimate, reverent, and worshipful call! This essence blood had a fatal and irresistible attraction for them!

Three drops of essence blood floated in Qinglian's palm. Although bound by the restriction, they were still like three miniature chaotic stars, radiating a dazzling dark golden divine light and containing the power to create the world, illuminating the entire hall in a magnificent light!

The Three Pure Ones rose simultaneously, their expressions more solemn and dignified than ever before. They straightened their robes and bowed deeply before the three drops of essence blood, and also before the will of Pangu, the Father God who had bestowed this gift from the darkness, their bows almost touching the ground: "We thank Father God for this blessing!"

The voice was loud and devout, echoing in the temple for a long time.
