Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

Although the Primordial Celestial Venerable promptly isolated that wisp of energy within the Kunlun Mountains, preventing it from spreading to the primordial world.

But high above, a gaze filled with boundless majesty and holiness descended upon Huanglong, looking at his innate divine origin, a slight ripple flashing in his calm and unwavering eyes.

Then, that majestic and holy gaze looked at the three figures that had appeared beside Huang Long, nodded slightly, and then disappeared without a trace.

After the gaze disappeared, the Three Pure Ones carefully examined Huanglong from head to toe.

The usually solemn face of the Primordial Celestial Venerable revealed an unprecedented smile: "Good! Good! Good! As expected of my disciple! To possess such a profound innate divine foundation at the Taiyi realm, you are destined to become a Quasi-Saint in the future."

Even the usually calm and composed face of the Supreme Sage Taiqing showed a rare smile.

Only Tongtian, standing to the side, looked regretful: "Second Brother, I should have snatched this little guy away and made him my disciple. Why didn't I insist back then!"

Yuanshi Tianzun glanced at Tongtian Jiaozhu and said, "Get out of here and don't even think about my disciple."

Suddenly, the Three Pure Ones' gazes sharpened as they watched three illusory flowers appear atop the Yellow Dragon's head, blooming petal by petal.

Huanglong's figure began to appear and disappear, and a phantom river quietly appeared, flowing over Huanglong's body.

"The River of Time?"

"Is this little guy aiming to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm in one step?"

"A good choice. He has already reached the limit in the Taiyi Realm. Continuing to comprehend the laws of the Great Dao will not bring him any benefit and will only be a waste of time."

In the eyes of the Three Pure Ones, Huanglong's true spirit was swept away by the waves of the river of time and headed towards an unknown direction.

The river of time in the primordial world has flowed since Pangu created the world and continues into the future, silent, boundless, and without beginning or end, visible only to Great Immortals.

In this long river of time, as long as your cultivation is high enough, you can see ferocious beasts ravaging the world in ancient times, the dragon, phoenix and qilin clans dominating the world, and the scene of the demon lord Rahu igniting the western land of the primordial world.

As long as your cultivation level is high enough, you can travel upstream along the river of time to see the origin of the birth of heaven and earth.

Everything that happened in the primordial era is, in the long river of time, merely a large or small ripple.

Above the long river of time, a phantom stands silently.

Looking up, there is an endless void and chaos above, and a vast and boundless primordial world below.

The river of time flows through the void in the middle, completely covering the primordial world, with no end in sight.

Looking upwards along the flow of time, shrouded in mist, a vast figure sits alone atop the river of time.

The moment Huanglong saw that figure, he immediately recognized him as the founder of the Xuanmen sect, the teacher of all the saints, and Huanglong's grandmaster—the Dao Ancestor Hongjun, who pioneered the path to immortality and passed down the method to become a saint.

Huang Long quickly bowed respectfully to the figure: "Disciple Huang Long greets Grandmaster!"

The figure opened its eyes, glanced at Huang Long, a smile appeared on its blurry face, and it nodded slightly to Huang Long before being obscured by the mist.

Looking down, the river of time splits into countless streams, flowing toward the unknown future, making it difficult to discern which one is the true main channel of the river of time.

With a slight thought, a bead with a hint of chaos mixed in with its dark yellow color appeared in Huang Long's palm.

"The Great Luo, by integrating the past, present, and future, will attain the oneness."

Huanglong gently released his grip, and the Xuanhuang World Pearl fell into the river of time, creating tiny but real ripples that spread upwards to the past and downwards to encompass billions of futures.

These ripples were instantly and clearly sensed by all beings who had cultivated to the level of Great Luo Golden Immortal or above.

One after another, figures appeared on the river of time, eager to see just who this newly promoted Grand Luo expert was.

When all eyes turned to where they were, they were shocked by the three figures exuding holy majesty and radiating golden light, and they all bowed and paid their respects to the three figures.

Although it was unclear who the one who attained the Great Luo Golden Immortal status was, the only person who could have these three sages protect him at the same time must be a disciple of the Three Pure Ones, or a disciple who was favored by the Three Pure Ones.

With the simultaneous protection of the Three Pure Ones, the newly promoted Great Luo Immortal is a foregone conclusion, without any surprises.

After bowing to the Three Pure Ones, the figures disappeared into the river of time.

As the ripples spread through the past, present, and future, figures resembling the Yellow Dragon continuously merged into its form as the ripples returned.

As these figures merged in, the three Great Dao Flowers of Huanglong's Essence, Qi, and Spirit also bloomed continuously: First Grade, Second Grade, Third Grade... When all the figures had merged in, it had reached the eleventh grade of the Great Luo Flower.

This made the smiles on the faces of the Three Pure Ones, who had been guarding Huanglong, even brighter.

"Indeed, the flower has eleven petals!"

"Such talent is absolutely unique among innate beings!"

"Not only innate beings, but even innate deities rarely manage to cultivate an eleventh-grade Dao Flower!"

On the river of time, after the eleventh-grade Great Dao Flower bloomed, Huanglong waited for a long time. When no more figures appeared from the past or future, Huanglong picked up the Xuanhuang World Pearl under his feet again and began to exit the river of time.

Just as Huanglong's figure was about to disappear, another figure resembling Huanglong rode a beam of axe light, descending along the River of Time from top to bottom, breaking through layers of mist, and merging into the Xuanhuang World Pearl in Huanglong's hand amidst the astonished gaze of the being guarding the River of Time.

The moment Huanglong returned, the Great Dao Flower, which had originally blossomed into an eleventh-grade flower, instantly blossomed into a first-grade flower.

Once Huanglong had fully returned, the three flowers instantly retracted and merged into Huanglong's body.

This caused the Three Pure Ones, who were guarding Huanglong, to instantly turn their bright smiles into astonishment.

The Grand Master of Heaven even rubbed his eyes, thinking he was seeing things: "A flower with twelve petals? How is that possible?"

Tongtian turned to look at the Sage Taiqing, then at the Primordial Heavenly Venerable. "Eldest brother, second brother, I must have been mistaken! You didn't see it either, right? This little fellow couldn't possibly have blossomed into a twelfth-grade flower!"

The Primordial Celestial Venerable, his voice trembling slightly, looked at the Supreme Pure Sage and said, "Brother, you weren't mistaken just now, were you? You saw it too, right?"

The Sage Taiqing's shocked expression subsided slightly. He nodded and said, "I'm not mistaken, it is indeed a flower with twelve petals."

The Sage of Taiqing glanced at Huanglong, who was cultivating and consolidating his Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and whispered to the Primordial Heavenly Venerable and the Tongtian Sect Master, "Remember not to spread this matter. After Huanglong awakens, Second Brother, you must instruct him not to tell anyone about the twelve petals of the flower."

Yuanshi Tianzun nodded solemnly and said, "Brother, rest assured, I know what's important."
