Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

Chapter 157: Does the cave dwelling possess innate spiritual roots?

……

Yunxiao paused slightly: "I've heard that it not only has a Five Elements Grand Array set up there, gathering spiritual energy, but it can also draw upon the great power of the stars in the heavens to nourish many immortal herbs, spiritual plants, and rare beasts that have disappeared from Kunlun Mountain. It can be called a miniature Kunlun Mountain."

When Yunxiao mentioned that spirit beasts and immortal herbs had become extinct in Kunlun Mountain, several disciples of the Chan Sect, who had suffered greatly at the hands of the Jie Sect disciples, took this opportunity to complain to Huanglong and the others:

"Junior Sister Yunxiao's words are true. However, those rare and exotic beasts, immortal herbs and spiritual medicines originally thrived and multiplied in the Kunlun Mountains."

"However, some disciples of the Jie Sect disregarded the natural order of life and reproduction, wantonly hunting, killing, consuming, and refining animals to satisfy their appetites, thus wiping out all the spiritual beasts and immortal herbs in the mountains!"

"Senior Brother Huanglong couldn't bear it, and in order to prevent these creatures born in Kunlun from being starved, he had no choice but to move the mountain spirit beasts and immortal plants into his Daoist temple for protection and nurturing."

"..."

Upon hearing several disciples of the Chan Sect recount the crimes of the disciples of the Jie Sect, the faces of the Jie Sect's direct disciples Duobao, Jinling, Wudang, and even Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals all showed an unnatural expression, whether embarrassed or ashamed, but none of them could refute it.

Because what the disciples of the Chan Sect said was indeed the truth.

Many members of the Jie Sect are of unusual origin, and the law of the jungle is their nature.

Furthermore, due to the large number of disciples of the Jie Sect, those who were quick to act would get what they wanted, and in their fierce competition, they had no time to consider sustainable development.

The atmosphere became extremely awkward, and Huang Long had to speak up to ease the tension.

"Junior Sister Yunxiao, there's no need to worry. Countless creatures perished in the primordial world; life and death are governed by fate!"

"If Junior Sister Yunxiao is interested, she is welcome to look around freely when we arrive at my dojo later. If there are any celestial herbs or spiritual plants that catch her eye, or any spiritual beasts that she likes, she may also choose some to take back to her own dojo to cultivate."

Huang Long then looked at the other disciples from the three sects, "If you find anyone you like, you may take them with you!"

"These little guys are now multiplying very well at my dojo, and there's almost not enough space for them. I'm worried about where to put them."

Upon hearing this, Yunxiao's beautiful eyes brightened slightly, and she thanked him again: "In that case, I thank you for your generous gift, Senior Brother."

The other disciples of the Chan Sect also became excited when they heard Huang Long say this. They had long coveted the countless precious spiritual roots, immortal herbs, and rare and auspicious beasts in Huang Long's dojo.

"When it comes to generosity, Senior Brother Huanglong is the best!"

"It just so happens that I need a few precious spiritual herbs for alchemy, and they're all available at my senior brother's dojo!"

"..."

At that moment, no one had any further objections.

Huang Long turned to the Western Sect disciples beside him and said, "Now that you have just heard your Grand Master's teachings, you should immediately consolidate what you have learned. Therefore, I will not invite you fellow disciples any further."

The pharmacist, Maitreya, and the others immediately showed a look of disbelief.

Why didn't these three religions invite them to come along?

This is how you treat guests.

However, since Huang Long had said so, they couldn't very well ask to follow him. After bowing to Huang Long and the others, they all rode their own streaks of light to the spirit peak that had been specially arranged for them.

Under Huanglong's leadership, the Human Sect's Xuandu, the Chan Sect's Antarctic Immortal, Guangchengzi, Chijingzi, Taiyi, Yuding, Cihang and more than ten other disciples, plus the Jie Sect's Duobao, Jinling, Wudang and four other disciples, as well as the outer sect's Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortal Sisters.

More than twenty core disciples from the three religions rode their own escape lights, passing through the sea of ​​clouds, and flew majestically towards the Five Elements Cave Heaven, Huanglong's Daoist temple, on the western foothills of Kunlun Mountain.

When the disciples of the Jie Sect who had returned to their respective dojos saw Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortals riding on their escape lights, following Huang Long and the others westward.

They all wore expressions of regret, blaming themselves for running so fast.

If they had gone up to talk to Senior Brother Huanglong back then, they would be among those escaping lights now.

After all, Huanglong's wealth was well-known among the disciples of the three sects of Kunlun.

This was thanks to the disciples of the Chan Sect who had visited the Huanglong Dojo.

They gained many benefits from Huanglong, and their cultivation level improved rapidly. Naturally, they boasted about it to the disciples of the Jie Sect.

The disciples of the Jie Sect, who thought they had missed this opportunity, were now filled with deep regret.

At the border between the eastern and western Kunlun Mountains, an array emanating the spiritual light of the five elements covers an area spanning tens of thousands of miles.

A cluster of mountains, bathed in the glow of colorful clouds, is faintly visible, their spiritual energy swirling and shifting like mist.

Huanglong stopped his escape in the void and unleashed streams of spiritual energy toward the great formation.

Instantly, the flowing spiritual light of the five elements paused slightly and slowly dissipated in front of Huanglong, revealing a passage that could only accommodate a few people walking side by side.

Inside the passage, the faint cries of young beasts and the refreshing fragrance of spiritual fruits could be heard.

"Gentlemen, please follow me."

Huang Long stepped in first, followed closely by the rest of the group, who filed in one after another.

Passing through layers of array formations and restrictions containing profound changes in the five elements' interactions.

"Huh!" Huanglong couldn't help but exclaim in surprise upon sensing a familiar aura!

The sight before them left Zhao Gongming and the Three Immortal Sisters, who were visiting this place for the first time, speechless, just as it was when they first saw the Kunlun Wonderland.

Within the cave, the world seemed to form its own realm, completely different from the spiritual energy and Daoist charm outside the formation.

The sky was not the ordinary blue sky outside, but a dazzling cloud formed by the convergence of the five elements' spiritual energy, which was so dense it was almost liquefied, and the power of the stars in the sky. It slowly flowed and reflected the entire cave, making it radiant and dreamlike.

In the distance, rolling hills rise and fall, covered with lush forests.

Herds of colorful spirit deer roam the mountain peaks and spiritual veins, drawing in auspicious energy; white apes leap among the mountains, gathering ripe spiritual fruits and herbs.

The spiritual fields are scattered in an orderly fashion in the areas where the spiritual veins are most abundant.

Each and every Ganoderma lucidum herb, some hundreds of thousands of years old, ceaselessly absorbs the spiritual energy and Daoist essence within the Daoist temple.

Within this vast territory, dozens of acquired spiritual roots breathed in and exhaled innate spiritual energy, radiating boundless Daoist charm.

What made the disciples feel most comfortable was the faint yet extremely pure aura that permeated the entire cave.

This aura carries a purifying and soothing power, quietly washing away the restlessness and pent-up emotions that have accumulated from their long cultivation, making their hearts clear.

"An innate spiritual root...!"

The old man of the South Pole and Guang Chengzi and the others instantly had golden light in their eyes as they stared intently at Huanglong.

When the other disciples of the Chan and Jie sects heard the Antarctic Immortal utter the words "innate spiritual root," they were utterly shocked, as if struck by bolts of lightning.

"Innate spiritual root?"

"Besides numerous acquired spiritual roots, Senior Brother Huanglong actually possesses an innate spiritual root?"

They had only seen acquired spiritual roots in Huanglong, and they only knew that the Primordial Celestial Venerable had a Wind and Thunder Immortal Apricot in his possession.
