Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

Faced with this overwhelming combined attack, Huang Long remained standing still, his robes not even fluttering. His eyes were calm, and he seemed indifferent to the onslaught of divine powers and spells.

Having withstood all the attacks with his bare body, and withstood three blows from the disciples of the Jie Sect, Huang Long felt his skin slightly warm and his robes dimming slightly. Ignoring the Jie Sect disciples' drastically changed expressions, he smiled and said, "Three moves have passed, it's my turn!"

"Don't blame me for bullying you, senior brother!"

"Buzz!"

A beam of five-colored light shot into the sky from the top of the Yellow Dragon's Gate, instantly expanding into an ancient and colossal tower. The tower had three levels, with the light of the five elements flowing endlessly, evolving the power of the five elements to suppress all things!

It was the Five Elements Pagoda, a low-grade acquired spiritual treasure that Huanglong himself had refined!

His mind stirred slightly, and the Five Elements Pagoda above his head suddenly shone brightly!

The five elements of spiritual energy within the tower flowed wildly, drawing upon the primordial energy of the five elements throughout the heavens, enveloping all the disciples of the Jie Sect, led by Qiu Shou Xian!

The disciples of the Jie Sect immediately felt a heavy weight around them, as if a towering mountain was pressing down on them. Their internal magical power was sluggish and even their primordial spirit was suppressed!

Fear began to show in their eyes. They tried to use their magic power and magical treasures to escape, but in the end it was all in vain. Everything around them was completely sealed off by the power of the five elements, and they could not move at all!

"town!"

Huang Long softly uttered a single word.

The hundred-zhang-tall tower crashed down with unparalleled suppressive power, smashing towards Qiu Shou Xian and the other disciples of the Jie Sect!

"No—!" Qiu Shou Xian only managed to let out half a roar before being completely engulfed by the giant tower.

"boom!!!"

The earth trembled violently, as if a dragon were turning over, and after the deafening roar, the world fell silent.

Smoke and dust rose, and the spiritual energy became chaotic.

Huang Long waved his hand gently, and a breeze blew from his hand, dispersing all the dust. Taiyi, who was standing to the side, looked and saw that the giant tower had disappeared, leaving only a huge pit that covered hundreds of feet in diameter and was bottomless. The pit still contained the chilling aura of the five elements.

Huanglong walked step by step to the edge of the pit, glanced at the dark bottom, and said, "If you don't come out now, you'll never come out again!"

In an instant, more than ten panicked figures flashed out from the bottom of the pit and landed not far from Huang Long. Judging from their appearance, apart from their pale faces, they showed no signs of injury. Qiu Shou Xian bowed to Huang Long and said, "Thank you for your mercy, Senior Brother Huang Long." His trembling voice carried a trace of fear.

The remaining disciples of the Jie Sect were pale and trembling uncontrollably. Looking at the enormous crater, then at their seemingly nonchalant senior brother, Huanglong, their eyes were filled with boundless terror.

"I still prefer your arrogant attitude from just now!"

Huanglong shook his head as he looked at the now incredibly obedient Qiu Shouxian and other disciples of the Jie Sect. "Since you have nothing to do, don't get in the way. You cowards who bully the weak and fear the strong, get lost."

Upon hearing Huanglong's words, the dozen or so disciples of the Jie Sect who had survived the calamity were afraid that Huanglong would go back on his word. They all transformed into streaks of light of different colors and fled in all directions in a panic. In an instant, they were all gone, leaving only a mess on the ground.

Taiyi then seemed to snap out of his daze, hurriedly stepped forward, and respectfully bowed to Huanglong. His face still showed surprise, but his tone was full of gratitude: "Thank you so much for your help, Senior Brother Huanglong! Otherwise, I fear I would not have escaped the suffering of having my foundation damaged and my cultivation diminished today."

Huanglong waved his hand, looked at the still-shaken Taiyi, and said gently, "We are brothers, there's no need for thanks. You should also learn something from today's events."

His gaze swept over the ravaged mountains around him, and he said slowly, "If the opportunity of the Great Dao is in harmony with one's own Great Dao and is related to one's life, one should fight for it without hesitation. Otherwise, it would be a loss to damage one's own Great Dao source for these external things."

"There are plenty of spiritual mountains in Kunlun. As long as it doesn't involve one's own Dao, why not let them have them? If you are worried about insufficient spiritual energy or shallow Dao charm, you can set up arrays to gather spiritual energy, regulate the earth's veins, and cultivate spiritual plants. Over time, you will naturally be able to create a blessed land with abundant spiritual energy."

He looked at Taiyi, his tone turning serious: "By relentlessly fighting and vying for temporary gains, if you were to damage your very essence this time, who knows how much time and energy it would take to recover? It would be a losing proposition!"

Upon hearing this, Taiyi looked ashamed, yet seemed to have gained some insight. After the fierce battle just now, which nearly cost him his life, and now with Huanglong's guidance, his competitive spirit had dissipated considerably, and he had gained a deeper understanding of the Great Dao cultivation.

"Thank you for your teachings, Senior Brother. I have learned a lot and will remember them." Taiyi bowed again.

Huanglong nodded slightly: "That's good then. Now that the disciples of the Jie Sect have left, you may establish your dojo here!"

Huanglong flashed and transformed into a streak of light, returning directly to his spiritually rich Daoist temple.

Five Elements Courtyard, beneath the Enlightenment Tea Tree.

Huang Long sat cross-legged, brewed a pot of tea, and savored the battle he had just fought. Although it was over in an instant, it gave him a deeper understanding of how to use the Five Elements Pagoda.

However, the unbridled actions of Qiu Shou Xian and other disciples of the Jie Sect made Huang Long feel uneasy. The protective array of his own Daoist temple was only set up by Xuan Xian. If his home was stolen while he was away, all his spiritual roots and herbs would be in danger. Given the way these disciples of the Jie Sect acted, it was not impossible. By then, it would be too late to cry.

"With my current level of array formation cultivation, it's far from enough to upgrade the formation's grade."

First, he improved his array formation skills, then drank the tea in his cup in one gulp, and Huanglong's mind sank into the array formation inheritance left by the Sage Tongtian!

Time stands still in the mountains!

On this day, in the Five Elements Courtyard, Huanglong opened his eyes from the futon. In his eyes, countless array runes flowed and disappeared, evolving the heavens and earth, and finally returned to silence. A mysterious and profound aura slowly subsided.

He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, which, upon leaving his body, spontaneously transformed into a miniature killing array, appearing and disappearing in an instant.

"Uncle Tongtian's array formation inheritance is indeed profound and extensive, pointing directly to the origin of array formation... What a pity."

As Huanglong felt the last drop of creation essence completely consumed and vanish without a trace, a bitter smile appeared on his lips.

In order to push his understanding of the formation to the minor completion level, he had to use the last drop of creation essence to comprehend the formation inheritance. Now, with his formation cultivation, he can easily set up a formation to trap and kill a Golden Immortal. If he were to set up a formation in advance and had enough materials, trapping and killing a Taiyi would not be difficult!

Huang Long stood up and flew to his own dojo. His gaze swept over the thin Five Elements light screen surrounding the dojo. With his current level of array formation, he felt that it was full of loopholes and crude, like a child's scribbles.

"It's utterly appalling," Huang Long shook his head, but his tone was incredibly firm. "The most urgent task is to refine the array base!"

With a wave of his hand, Huanglong sent countless innate spiritual materials flying out and hovering in the air. Although they were radiant with light and overflowing with precious energy, they were actually just ordinary things from the primordial world, such as red copper, heavenly silver, five-element spiritual jade, void stone, and wind and thunder stone. The best of them were the three grains of Zhou Tian Star Sand. The rest of the materials could only be obtained by quantity.

Huang Long took out a top-grade spiritual artifact refining cauldron, condensed a wisp of true fire in his palm, placed it under the cauldron, and activated it with the Jade Purity Immortal Technique. Countless innate spiritual materials were thrown into the cauldron and carefully tempered.
