Primordial Era: Refusing Hongjun's path to sainthood, I attained the Dao of Hunyuan.

Chapter 25 To Kunlun

Since there was a rare innate array to conceal him, Xuanhuang was not in a hurry to break the array and simply sat down cross-legged within it.

First, the three Bodhi seeds were taken out. Unlike ginseng fruit and yellow plum, Bodhi seeds are fruits of metal, which are very hard.

So it's not meant to be eaten. Of course, with Xuanhuang's strength, he could eat it by force, but there's no need for that.

Xuanhuang simply sat cross-legged on the ground, and then revealed five-colored divine light. With a sweep of the fire element divine light, he instantly absorbed all three Bodhi seeds.

Using fire to overcome metal, three Bodhi seeds were refined.

Although the three Bodhi seeds are innate spiritual fruits, the Fire Element Divine Light has not yet transformed and belongs to acquired divine light.

It's more difficult to refine.

However, Xuanhuang relied on his powerful magic to forcibly refine them. After an unknown amount of time, the three Bodhi seeds were finally refined.

After being refined, the Bodhi seed became a pure mass of Geng metal essence, which, when gathered together, was about the size of a football.

Xuanhuang transferred this primordial energy into the Golden Element Divine Light.

The Golden Divine Light quickly absorbed this source and then began its transformation.

In this way, Xuanhuang spent several hundred years transforming the Metal Element Divine Light into an innate attribute.

Now, three-fifths of the five-colored divine light of Xuanhuang has been transformed into innate divine light.

Only the Fire Element Divine Light and the Water Element Divine Light remained unchanged.

But at this stage, according to the principle of mutual generation and circulation of the five elements, it is not necessary to collect the remaining two innate sources completely.

However, this process of transforming into innate divine light takes a very long time.

Therefore, even if we don't collect all two of the remaining innate sources, collecting just one of them will greatly accelerate the transformation of the Five-Colored Divine Light.

Xuanhuang silently experienced the feeling of the five-colored divine light transforming once again.

Each transformation of the Five-Colored Divine Light is not just an increase in power, but also a change in the various principles of the Five Elements.

And so, after hundreds of years of studying the Five Elements, his understanding of the Five Elements became increasingly profound.

Finally, Xuanhuang opened his eyes, then raised the bitter bamboo, suspending it in mid-air, and then swept the five-colored divine light that had appeared downwards.

Instead of brushing the bitter bamboo into the divine light, the divine light penetrated into the bitter bamboo.

Instantly, the bitter bamboo, which had been transformed into a bamboo staff, radiated five-colored light.

It's completely open inside and out.

It resembles five-colored jade or crystal, and is extremely beautiful and exquisite.

Xuanhuang infused his Five Elements Dao, and even a portion of the Five Elements Origin, into this bamboo staff.

The ritual was performed for a long time.

Finally, the five-colored divine light surged out from the bamboo staff again, returned to Xuanhuang's back, and finally disappeared.

Now let's look at the bamboo cane.

It had already transformed into a five-colored bamboo staff.

At first glance.

Yes, it's incredibly flamboyant.

Xuanhuang took the bamboo staff in his hand, feeling that the five colors were really dazzling.

If you go out with it, someone might steal it.

So he reached out and touched it, and the bamboo cane changed color, returning to its previous emerald green appearance.

But the essence of this bamboo cane has changed.

Originally, the bamboo staff was based on the path of sorrow and suffering, but now, the core has been changed to the path of the Five Elements.

Xuanhuang also felt the close connection between the bamboo staff and himself, as if it were connected to his mind and soul, inseparable.

This is the treasure that has led me to enlightenment!

The first step to attaining enlightenment is to refine the treasure for attaining enlightenment!

Xuanhuang, leaning on the bamboo staff, couldn't help but laugh. He stood up and used the staff to sweep across the remaining bamboo forest. Instantly, hundreds of bitter bamboos, along with the mud and soil, were swept into the bamboo forest by a five-colored light emitted from the staff.

As a treasure for proving the Dao of Xuanhuang, this bamboo staff can naturally also release five-colored divine light.

At the same time, the five-colored divine light also opened up a space within the bamboo staff, which could be used to store various things.

It can be inanimate or living. But being taken inside is like being sealed away.

It will remain in the state it was in at the moment it was taken in, and will not change.

Unless it is released again.

After Xuanhuang finished collecting the bamboo forest, he pierced the great formation with his staff, transformed into a five-colored light, and continued flying eastward.

After leaving the western lands, they traveled eastward for an unknown period of time.

On this day, Xuanhuang arrived in front of a great mountain, which was actually an endless mountain range.

The mountain range resembles a dragon, towering into the clouds, shrouded in mist and filled with innate spiritual energy.

Thinking of the barrenness of the Western lands, even the sacred sites established by Jieyin and Zhunti seem like the difference between an emperor and a beggar compared to the mountains here.

The gap is too big.

Xuanhuang finally understood why Yuanshi was always so arrogant, and why he would often scold and reject the two Western Saints.

The West is truly incomparable to the East! Anyone would inevitably feel a sense of superiority when comparing them, right?

The mountain in front of us is Kunlun Mountain.

The Three Pure Ones reside in these mountains.

Once you reach the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, even without deliberately trying to calculate, you will have a sudden, intuitive feeling.

Xuanhuang entered the Kunlun Mountains and was captivated by the scenery, exclaiming in amazement.

Unbeknownst to him, he had arrived deep within the Kunlun Mountains, and the three streams of energy caught his attention.

Bring him back to his senses.

One elderly person, one middle-aged person, and one young person.

The Three Pure Ones!

Xuanhuang looked at the three figures, and vaguely felt as if the three figures had merged together.

Transform into a giant.

That's Pangu!

Pangu, the great god who created the primordial world.

"Perhaps we can comprehend the Way of Pangu from the Way of these three!" A thought flashed through Xuanhuang's mind.

It is said that Pangu's Dao is the Dao of Power, but who really knows?

In any case, no one in the primordial world had comprehended the Great Dao of Power. Even the Three Pure Ones had not cultivated the Great Dao of Power.

Therefore, whether Pangu was the embodiment of the Great Dao of Power is something no one knows for sure.

Unless the great god Pangu is resurrected.

"I am Xuanhuang, a Daoist priest. I am passing through this place and have come here to pay my respects to you three fellow Daoists. May I discuss the Dao with you?" Xuanhuang said solemnly, bowing to the three of them.

In the distance, the Three Pure Ones exchanged a glance, then looked at Xuanhuang. The aged figure among them spoke, his voice calm: "How do you intend to argue?"

In the primordial world, there are many ways to discuss the Dao. Those with high cultivation levels prefer to manifest their auspicious clouds and then discuss the Dao.

Besides these, there is another popular way of discussing the Dao, which is actually a contest of magical powers.

They used combat techniques to discuss the Dao.

In the process of battling, try to understand and feel the opponent's Dao.

Xuanhuang's eyelids twitched when he heard Taiqing's words. Did the three brothers intend to gang up on him?
