Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

"Senior Brother Huanglong, do you have any Three Lights Divine Water left?"

Upon hearing this, all the disciples of the Chan Sect looked at Cihang in surprise.

After all, everyone was shocked by the effects of the Enlightenment Tea and wanted to get one or two pieces from Huanglong.

However, he did not mention it because he was not wealthy enough, so as not to make a fool of himself.

However, Cihang was different and set his sights on the Three Lights Divine Water. The Three Lights Divine Water was naturally a top-notch item in the primordial world, even more precious than the Enlightenment Tea!

Although Enlightenment Tea can be used to accelerate cultivation and comprehend the laws of the Great Dao!

However, the Three Lights Divine Water is the condensation of the essence of the sun, moon, and stars, and it truly has the miraculous effect of bringing the dead back to life, healing flesh and bones, and nourishing all things.

It is also a top-tier divine material for refining elixirs and cultivating spiritual roots.

I didn't see Huanglong brewing tea. He used more than ten Enlightenment Tea leaves, but only used one drop of Three Lights Divine Water.

Looking into Cihang's earnest gaze, Huanglong countered, "Junior Brother, what will you offer in exchange for this Three Lights Divine Water?"

Seeing that Huanglong did not refuse, Cihang said, "Senior brother, wait for me a moment."

With a flash, Cihang rode the escape light towards his own Daoist temple on Kunlun Mountain.

This behavior puzzled Huanglong. What was it that Cihang did not carry with him but instead placed in the temple?

A moment later, Cihang's figure reappeared in the courtyard of the Five Elements Courtyard, with only a willow branch swaying slightly in her palm.

The willow branch was about a foot long, its entire body emerald green like jade, with slender leaves, each leaf bearing naturally formed patterns.

The willow branch itself did not emit any spiritual light when held in Cihang's hand.

To everyone's surprise, the space around the leaf began to distort slightly, as if it were about to open up a spatial tunnel.

What shocked Huanglong the most was that at the broken end of the willow branch, spatial laws enveloped it, protecting its vitality and preventing it from dissipating.

The moment the willow branch appeared, the Antarctic Immortal, Guang Chengzi, and Huanglong all had their pupils contract, shocked!

Although Chi Jingzi, Yu Ding, and the others detected the spatial fluctuations emanating from the willow branches, they were unable to discern the extent of these fluctuations.

Huang Long and the others possessed the cultivation level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Having gained a certain understanding of the Great Dao of Space, he immediately recognized that this willow branch was extraordinary.

That was not an ordinary willow branch from a spiritual root, but a piece cut from a primordial spiritual root containing the complete Dao of Space!

The spatial patterns on the willow branches are complete and clear, as if the laws of space have been dissected from the inside and clearly displayed before our eyes.

What shocked Huanglong even more was that the Daoist charm contained in those Dao patterns was strikingly similar to the broken branches of the ginseng fruit tree and the enlightenment tea tree he had seen.

Clearly, its grade is also a top-grade innate spiritual root!

Containing spatial laws and possessing a top-grade innate spiritual root, a name surfaced in Huanglong's mind.

"Hollow willow!"

In the myths and legends of the past, at the beginning of the creation of the primordial world, the great immortal Yangmei, who was a contemporary of the Dao Ancestor, was originally a hollow willow tree.

However, in this world, Huang Long had never heard of Yang Mei.

He once thought that this great being might not exist, or that he might have already left the primordial world and gone deep into chaos...!

But the willow branch in front of him was actually a hollow willow branch, which puzzled Huang Long.

Although he didn't know how Cihang obtained this willow twig, he knew that Cihang must still have other willow twigs, or even a section of willow branch, in his possession.

Otherwise, Cihang would certainly not have taken it out, nor would he have used it directly to trade for the Three Lights Divine Water.

Huang Long didn't care about all that. He knew that this willow branch had to stay in his hands, no matter the cost.

Huang Long suppressed his shock and maintained a calm expression: "Junior brother, do you know the origin of this willow twig?"

Cihang seemed to have anticipated Huanglong's question and calmly replied:

"Ten thousand years ago, when I was wandering through the primordial world, I was swept into a secret spatial realm. In that realm, I saw a huge, withered tree stump, shrouded in endless lightning...!"

As Cihang spoke, a hint of fear appeared on his face: "That lightning contained boundless power; a single strike could reduce me to ashes!"

Cihang paused, looked at Huanglong, and the other Chan Sect disciples who were staring intently at him: "After the lightning dissipated, the withered tree stump actually had a surge of spiritual light, and finally burst forth with a trace of life, sprouting three willow branches."

"But after I pulled out three willow branches, the dead tree stump gradually disappeared, leaving only the three willow branches. Guided by the willow branches, I broke through that spatial secret realm and returned to the primordial world."

Huang Long and the others nodded in agreement with Ci Hang's explanation, since Ci Hang, who was at the Taiyi Realm, would find it difficult to lie to Huang Long and the others, who were at the Daluo Realm.

"You want the Three Lights Divine Water to water these willow branches, hoping to make them grow?" Huanglong asked Cihang.

Cihang nodded, a glimmer of hope appearing in her eyes.

"In this world, if there is anything that can keep this willow branch alive and even rejuvenate it, the only thing I know is the Three Lights Divine Water."

Huang Long nodded. Cihang was right. The only way to restore the willow branch to its former glory was with the Three Lights Divine Water. Of course, his divine rain, which had reached the level of a supernatural being, could also do the same if he spent countless years watering it without regard to cost.

"Junior brother, how much Three Lights Divine Water do you want to exchange for this willow branch?" Huang Long asked.

Cihang pondered for a moment, then looked solemnly at Huanglong: "Although this willow branch is precious, I don't know its exact value compared to the Three Lights Divine Water, but I believe Senior Brother Huanglong will give me a fair price."

"I'll accept any amount!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Long smiled, realizing that his character was already considered quite high among the disciples of the Chan Sect.

Looking at Cihang, who trusted him implicitly, Huanglong pondered for a moment and gave a number that shocked everyone.

"A thousand drops!"

A thousand drops of the Three Lights Divine Water—this price is not only not low, but extremely high.

Such a divine substance as the Three Lights Divine Water is extremely rare; a thousand drops of the Three Lights Divine Water are enough to cultivate a complete innate spiritual root.

If used to treat illnesses and injuries, as long as one does not die immediately, it is equivalent to having a thousand lives.

The price Huanglong offered would be astronomical in the prehistoric world, and it was a price that no one else, not even some saints, could offer.

If it's a hollow willow tree, then the price is indeed too low.

But for just a single willow twig, the price is perfectly reasonable, even several times higher.

When Cihang heard the number one thousand drops, he was so shocked that he was speechless!

In his plan, this willow twig could be exchanged for one hundred drops of Three Lights Divine Water. It was Huanglong who gave him an extremely high price out of consideration for their fraternal bond.

Unexpectedly, Huanglong was willing to exchange a thousand drops for this willow twig.

Cihang asked cautiously, "Senior Brother Huanglong, isn't this too much?"

The other disciples of the Chan Sect also showed expressions of disbelief. The value of a thousand drops of the Three Lights Divine Water could be exchanged for one or two innate spiritual roots.

Huang Long looked at Cihang and smiled, "Don't worry, Junior Brother, it's not much!"

Seeing Huang Long's sincere expression, Cihang was certain that Huang Long wasn't joking, so she handed the willow branch to him, saying, "Thank you, Senior Brother Huang Long!"

Huanglong grasped the willow twig and looked at the other disciples of the Chan Sect, saying:

"If any of you also possess such spiritual items, you are welcome to exchange them with me."

"My offer will definitely satisfy all of you fellow disciples."
