Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

Huanglong observed that although Ziling's aura was constantly increasing, it had not yet undergone a transformation.

It is known that for some creatures, their roots are like an insurmountable chasm, difficult to cross.

Looking at this little fellow whom he had personally enlightened and who had accompanied him for countless years, he was the head steward of the cave.

Huanglong took out another item with a backhand, but it was not the Pangu Blood Essence that allowed the White Crane Boy to break through!

Instead, it was a Nine-Turn Creation Origin Golden Pill refined by the Sage of Taiqing. A total of nine golden pills were obtained, with five in Huanglong's hands and four in Xuandu's hands.

Of the golden pills in Huanglong's hands, he used three to break through to the innate divine origin, and the other two have never been used.

Huanglong infused the Nine-Turn Creation Origin Golden Pill into Ziling's body. The immense medicinal power instantly nourished Ziling's origin and simultaneously drew upon the vast spiritual energy accumulated within her body—the spiritual power that Ziling had absorbed from countless spiritual fruits and immortal medicines over the long years.

The immense spiritual power intertwined around Zi Ling's body, forming fine threads of spiritual energy that transformed Zi Ling into a giant spiritual cocoon!

Huanglong sensed that an aura within the cocoon was beginning to transform. Given Ziling's current level, it would take an extremely long time for her to completely absorb this Nine-Turn Creation Origin Golden Pill and enhance her own fundamental foundation.

With a wave of his hand, Huanglong caused the spirit cocoon that Ziling had transformed into to disappear instantly and reappear under the Great Toon Tree. With the assistance of the Great Toon Tree's Dao of Time, the time it takes for Ziling to transform will be greatly shortened.

Bai Hong, Yuan Lu, and the others, along with the seven-headed Qilin, entered a deep state of enlightenment under the nourishment of the Enlightenment Tea. They would not wake up for a while, so Huang Long sent them back to their respective caves.

When the spiritual essence of that cup of Enlightenment Tea dissipated, Guang Chengzi and the others finally awoke from their state of enlightenment.

The moment they opened their eyes, everyone's aura became more vibrant, their laws more refined, and their understanding of the Great Dao and the path ahead clearer.

"Excellent tea!" Guang Chengzi and the Old Man of the South Pole exclaimed in unison, their voices filled with the joy of all doubts dispelled.

The Old Man of the South Pole stroked his beard and sighed, "This cup of Enlightenment Tea is enough to offset ten thousand years of secluded cultivation."

Huang Long laughed upon hearing this, "Senior Brother Antarctic, the first time you drink this Enlightenment Tea, the effect is the greatest, which is why I added a drop of Three Lights Divine Water to it. After that, the effect will gradually decrease with each subsequent drink."

Guang Chengzi sighed, "Junior Brother Huanglong, the spiritual items produced by such top-grade spiritual roots are extremely precious. We only got to consume them once because of your good fortune. As for long-term consumption, we dare not even imagine it."

"Of course, if Junior Brother has any extra Enlightenment Tea, Senior Brother is willing to empty his pockets to exchange for some."

The other disciples of the Chan Sect also showed interest upon hearing this.

Huang Long, upon hearing Guang Chengzi's words, revealed a mysterious smile and refused, saying, "Senior brother, I didn't get much of this Enlightenment Tea. After all of you fellow disciples tasted it today, there are only a few leaves left. It's really hard to give you any extra."

Upon hearing this, Guang Chengzi and the others all showed expressions of disappointment.

"Gentlemen, my fellow disciples and I have not tasted this blood date wine and these many spiritual fruits for a long time. Please do not stand on ceremony!"

The group switched from tea to wine, and the atmosphere became even more harmonious than before.

They paid no attention to the disappearance of Zi Ling and the others. They had naturally seen Zi Ling and the others drink the Enlightenment Tea. Beings at the Golden Immortal level who drank the Enlightenment Tea produced by innate spiritual roots were naturally in the process of enlightenment.

They witnessed the transformation of the white crane boy standing nearby.

The group drank the spiritual wine, ate the spiritual fruits, and chatted merrily over drinks.

The conversation started with the changes in Kunlun Mountain over tens of thousands of years, the arrival of the Taoist Ran Deng to become his disciple, his experiences traveling across the prehistoric land, and his insights and confusions about cultivation.

Huang Long also recounted his experiences over the years.

After visiting his Uncle Tongtian, he went to the southern part of the prehistoric world, traveled the land with the Ancestral Witch Houtu, talked about how Houtu opened up the underworld in the Blood Sea and evolved reincarnation, and then went to Shouyang Mountain in the southern part of the prehistoric world to see Chang'e flying to the moon. The witch and demon races almost fought again, but were easily suppressed and stopped by his eldest uncle...!

When they heard that Xuandu possessed two supreme treasures, all the direct disciples of the Chan Sect showed expressions of envy.

After Huang Long finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something, "When I visited Uncle Tongtian, I had a very pleasant conversation with Brother Duobao."

Huang Long looked at Guang Chengzi, a hint of teasing in his smile: "Now that tens of thousands of years have passed, Senior Brother Guang Chengzi, you'd better work hard. Senior Brother Duobao has probably already broken through to the mid-stage of the Great Luo realm."

Huanglong then looked at the other direct disciples of the Chan Sect, "Moreover, Jinling and Wudang have already broken through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Now, tens of thousands of years have passed, and I'm afraid their cultivation has become even more formidable."

As soon as he said this, the surrounding air fell silent.

Guang Chengzi's hand holding the wine glass stiffened slightly, and the smile on his face faded a bit.

Although both the Chan and Jie sects belong to the Xuanmen school, they each carry different doctrines.

During their time at Kunlun, the disciples were constantly at odds and frequently engaged in magical duels.

Guang Chengzi was the chief disciple of the Chan Sect, and Duobao was the chief disciple of the Jie Sect. The two became disciples around the same time.

While cultivating in the Kunlun Mountains, the two maintained a constant race to catch up, and even broke through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm on the same day.

But now, according to Huanglong, Duobao might break through to the mid-stage of the Great Luo realm first.

For Guang Chengzi, it wasn't just about being outdone by Duobao; more importantly, it was about his master, who cared most about his reputation, losing face in front of his Uncle Tongtian...!

Guang Chengzi was depressed for a moment, then drank the amber-colored jujube wine in his cup in one gulp. The wine entered his sorrowful heart, but it could not dispel the troubles in his mind.

He subconsciously touched the teacup in front of him; a trace of the Enlightenment Tea still lingered at the bottom of the cup.

Suddenly, Guang Chengzi's eyes lit up, and he looked up at Huanglong:

"Junior Brother Huanglong, this Enlightenment Tea... I don't need much, one leaf is enough."

Upon hearing Guang Chengzi mention the Enlightenment Tea again, everyone looked at Huang Long once more.

They themselves had no hope, but they still hoped that Huanglong could spare a piece of land to exchange for Guangchengzi.

Huang Long looked at Guang Chengzi, whose face showed anxiety, and smiled slightly, "Senior brother, don't worry. For the sake of the Chan Sect's reputation, I will give you two pieces."

Upon hearing this, Guang Chengzi's anxious expression disappeared: "Two pieces are enough for me to reach the mid-stage of the Great Luo realm."

"Junior brother, don't worry. I won't let you take out such a divine item for nothing. I have accumulated quite a few spiritual items during my tens of thousands of years of traveling in the prehistoric world. You can choose whatever you like."

These words were spoken very sincerely.

After the Three Pure Ones separated, the disciples of the Chan Sect began to travel across the prehistoric land. Guang Chengzi, as the chief disciple of the Chan Sect, had a life fortune and luck that far surpassed that of ordinary beings.

After accumulating wealth over tens of thousands of years, his net worth naturally became substantial.

Upon hearing this, Huang Long took out two tea leaves of enlightenment tea, placed them in a jade box made of innate spiritual jade, and set up multiple layers of seals before handing them to Guang Chengzi.

Guang Chengzi took the jade box and, with a wave of his hand, tossed a storage bead of acquired spiritual treasure level to Huanglong!

"These are my collection. If they are not enough, I will make it up to you later, junior brother."

Huang Long examined the storage bead and found piles of innate spiritual objects, as well as treasures that exuded the aura of innate origin.

These are all what Huanglong needed to create and evolve the world. "Senior brother, these things are enough, even more than enough..."

Guang Chengzi interrupted Huang Long, "Junior brother, don't refuse. These things can be collected by traveling through the prehistoric world; it will only take a little time."

Upon hearing this, Huang Long no longer refused, saying he could always compensate Guang Chengzi with some Enlightenment Tea in the future...!

The transaction was completed, and the atmosphere became even more enthusiastic.

Although Taiyi Yuding and the others were envious, they knew they couldn't offer treasures of equal value in exchange. They could only drink their blood date wine and watch with envy.

Just then, Cihang, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke:

"Senior Brother Huanglong...do you have any extra Three Lights Divine Water?"
