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

Chapter 39 Gourd Vine

The three of them traversed the vast chaos, returning to the primordial world, while Xuanhuang would occasionally take action, collecting clumps of earth, water, fire, and wind.

This behavior caused Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun, who were standing nearby, to twitch their eyelids repeatedly.

Finally, Hongyun couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Brother Dao, will you find it useful to collect these elements of earth, water, fire, and wind?"

"Um."

Xuanhuang nodded and replied, "It's useful, very useful."

"Earth, water, fire, and wind are also a kind of energy. I am trying to reverse the five elements and evolve them into the four symbols, completely reversing them. Therefore, these elements are very useful to me."

"You don't need to worry about me, I'll just collect some, it's no big deal."

Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun looked at each other, staring at each other wide-eyed. Was it just a matter of whether it was convenient or not?

Are earth, water, fire, and wind simply one type of energy?

You should know that when they arrived, they encountered these violent elements of earth, water, fire, and wind, and they basically avoided them whenever possible.

But now, Xuanhuang is doing something quite different; not only does he not dodge, he's even taken them in.

However, at the same time, the two also realized that Xuanhuang's cultivation and supernatural powers were indeed becoming increasingly terrifying.

They were able to collect earth, water, fire, and wind for research.

Is this the Primordial Golden Immortal?

The difference in their realms was so vast that even they couldn't quite grasp it.

Both of them couldn't help but feel a sense of envy and longing. They too wanted to advance to the level of a Primordial Golden Immortal.

No, he is a quasi-saint.

I'll go back and study the method of severing the three corpses, and strive to sever them as soon as possible!

And so, as Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun grew increasingly numb, Xuanhuang continued to gather clumps of earth, water, fire, and wind, until finally, the three returned to the membrane of heaven and earth.

Zhen Yuanzi and Hongyun exchanged a glance, and both breathed a sigh of relief.

But at that moment, Hongyun suddenly let out a soft exclamation and began to calculate.

Seeing this, Zhen Yuanzi couldn't help but feel curious. Just as he was about to ask, he noticed that Xuanhuang's expression had also become strange.

"What's wrong, fellow Daoist?" Zhen Yuanzi naturally shifted his focus and asked Xuanhuang.

"There is a spiritual root in Buzhou Mountain that is about to mature. The heavenly secrets indicate that it is destined to be with me?" Xuanhuang's tone carried a hint of uncertainty.

The spiritual root in Buzhou Mountain has matured, and it's at this time of year, so there's no doubt that it must be the gourd vine.

But it is true that the gourd vine bearing gourds is related to Hongyun, after all, Hongyun's Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Gourd came from this.

Aside from that, aren't all the other gourds their own owners?

Hmm, that's not right either. There's still one that's not fully mature. Should I just go and pick up the leftovers?

Xuanhuang was somewhat tempted, but he didn't really care whether it was a gourd or not.

Although the gourds growing on this gourd vine seem to be quite powerful, some even possessing the deadly ability of a gourd capable of slaying immortals.

However, Xuanhuang did not believe that these gourds were born with such abilities.

Most of them were formed by powerful beings through their own refinement. Therefore, if you obtain these gourds and want them to take a certain form, you'll have to go back and painstakingly refine them yourself.

Xuanhuang's true target was the gourd vine, and the piece of Nine Heavens Breath Soil connected to the roots of the gourd vine.

This is a sacred object for creating humankind! You can glean some merit from it.

It was a pity that he didn't have the Three Lights Divine Water. Xuanhuang felt somewhat regretful.

If I had the Three Lights Divine Water, I might be able to save the gourd vines that had finished bearing gourds.

After all, this is one of the top ten spiritual roots.

If they could be saved, that would be ideal. But now there's nothing we can do.

Upon hearing Xuanhuang's words, Zhen Yuanzi became interested and wanted to see what kind of spiritual root it was.

After a short while, Hongyun also finished his calculations and said that he had his own opportunity in Buzhou Mountain.

This made Zhen Yuanzi even more curious, and he said to Hongyun, "Since it's an opportunity, then we shouldn't delay."

"I'm still a bit slow, Hongyun, you take us there."

Hongyun's true form is the first cloud in the world, and its speed of escape is almost unparalleled in the primordial world.

Hearing Zhen Yuanzi's words, Hongyun felt a little smug.

"Then it's up to me."

Hongyun Road.

Zhen Yuanzi first removed the Earth Book, and at that moment Hongyun slapped the top of his head, from which a crimson cloud of energy surged out.

As soon as the cloud appeared, it expanded rapidly, enveloping all three of them.

It's amazing, though. Although the three of them were enveloped in clouds, they were still able to see normally and were not affected in any way.

The next moment, Hongyun said "Let's go".

Xuanhuang suddenly realized that they had traveled hundreds of millions of miles away, and their speed was still increasing rapidly.

Xuanhuang couldn't help but secretly compare himself. In terms of speed, he wasn't slow either, because he had eaten three immortal apricots and grown the Wind and Thunder Wings.

His speed is also quite impressive. But it depends on who he's compared to.

Now, compared to Hongyun, Xuanhuang estimated that if they were at the same level and had the same cultivation, he was afraid that his speed would still be slower than Hongyun's.

Hongyun's speed is truly the fastest speed in the primordial world! Perhaps only the Space Ancestral Witch Dijiang and Kunpeng can compare to him.

With Hongyun's help, the time it took the three of them to reach Buzhou Mountain didn't seem long.

Following their senses, the three headed to the location of the spiritual root, which turned out to be a valley.

Upon entering the valley, one immediately notices a very prominent gourd vine growing there, with seven gourds hidden among its dense branches and leaves.

And just as Xuanhuang had thought, none of the seven gourds possessed the powerful attributes that were later legendary.

This is now certain.

Because all seven gourds are the same color, a pure cyan, rather than each being a different color.

"It's actually this spiritual root!" Zhen Yuanzi exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the gourd vine.

Hongyun was also somewhat shocked, but her face lit up with joy.

After examining the gourd vines, Xuanhuang also noticed three other people in the valley: Taiqing Laozi, Yuqing Yuanshi, and Shangqing Tongtian.

The Three Pure Ones arrived even faster than they did.

That's not surprising. I guess I wasted time collecting the earth, water, fire, and wind elements while in the chaos, which caused a delay.

Therefore, they were surpassed by the Three Pure Ones.

It's just a bit of a pity. Xuanhuang had also considered taking all the gourd vines at once.

However, now that the Three Pure Ones have arrived before them, there is no need for that.

It's not impossible to do it with strength, but offending the Three Pure Ones and other powerful beings in the process would be too much of a loss.

Xuanhuang had no intention of making himself an enemy of the world.

On the contrary, if it is not necessary, it would be best if everyone in the world were like-minded people, living in harmony with each other.

Unfortunately, achieving harmony and peaceful coexistence is difficult.

Don't you see that even the three brothers, the Three Pure Ones, eventually had to split up, break apart, and end up scheming and fighting against each other?
