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

Chapter 53 Exploiting Others

Upon hearing this, the boy was overjoyed and quickly bowed, saying, "This disciple is willing. This disciple greets the teacher." After saying this, he hesitated and stopped.

Xuanhuang asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

The boy blushed slightly and bowed to Xuanhuang again, saying, "Disciple, disciple has no name yet, please grant me a name, Master."

"what?"

Xuanhuang was surprised, but after thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "Then you shall be called Kong Xuan from now on!"

"Yes, Kong Xuan greets his teacher."

The boy was overjoyed.

Get up.

Xuanhuang reached out and used his magic to help Kong Xuan up, saying, "From now on, you will be my second disciple."

Although Kong Xuan found it strange that he was the second disciple instead of the first disciple, he didn't dare to ask.

All I wanted was to go back and see what this so-called senior brother, who had entered the sect earlier than me, was like.

However, Xuanhuang did not immediately take Kong Xuan back to the Daoist temple. Instead, he wandered around the southern land.

Xuanhuang did not build clouds, but simply walked among the mountains and forests, seemingly appreciating the beauty of the world. If he encountered any rare and precious natural treasures along the way, he would collect them.

Kong Xuan followed Xuanhuang as they wandered around the southern land. Xuanhuang seemed to have no destination. If they came across a great master's temple, he would visit it and discuss the Dao with him.

Kong Xuan listened to the lecture from the side, and his cultivation gradually improved. He was originally very talented and was born with the perfect Golden Immortal level.

Now that his cultivation has increased, he is gradually showing signs of a breakthrough in his cultivation.

Xuanhuang taught him various methods of the Five-Colored Divine Light, and after mastering them, his strength increased day by day.

Xuanhuang also liked this disciple. Not only was he talented, but he was also intelligent and quick-witted, and he was born with a Dao heart. In him, Xuanhuang seemed to see a reflection of himself.

On this day, Xuanhuang, accompanied by Kong Xuan, arrived at a high mountain. Surrounded by rolling mountains and misty clouds, it was a rare place for cultivation.

There were also cultivators in the mountains, but this time Xuanhuang did not disturb them. He stood still, calculated for a moment, and then nodded, saying, "This is the place."

After saying that, without waiting for Kong Xuan's reaction, Xuanhuang's divine sense surged out, formless and intangible, and almost instantly surveyed the entire mountain range.

With a swift movement, Xuanhuang grabbed Kong Xuan and appeared in another location in the next instant.

The surrounding spiritual energy had turned into a mist, blurring the view. Kong Xuan asked in surprise, "Teacher, where is this?"

"The spiritual energy here is so dense!"

Kong Xuan unleashed his Five-Colored Divine Light, continuously absorbing the innate spiritual energy here.

Xuanhuang didn't stop them, and laughed, "This is a primordial array, and we're inside it."

After saying that, he made no other move, letting Kong Xuan absorb the innate spiritual energy here.

After a long time, a large amount of innate spiritual energy was finally absorbed by the five-colored divine light, gradually revealing the scene deep within the great formation.

It was a spiritual root, with lush branches and leaves, reaching a height of ten thousand feet. Kong Xuan's nose twitched as he smelled a refreshing fragrance that was very invigorating.

"A top-grade innate spiritual root, the Da Hong Pao tea tree."

This time, without Kong Xuan asking any questions, Xuan Huang smiled and led Kong Xuan forward, arriving in front of the spiritual root.

Kong Xuan also looked at the spiritual root with great curiosity. Although he had seen some other spiritual roots during this time as Xuanhuang visited some powerful beings in the prehistoric world.

But this one is different; it's from our own garden. So naturally, it's different.

However, Xuanhuang did not immediately accept the spiritual root. Instead, he laughed and said, "It's already right in front of you, why don't you reveal yourself?"

As he spoke, Xuanhuang reached out and grabbed forward.

"Buzz!"

The void trembled slightly, and to Kong Xuan's astonishment, a small copper coin appeared.

But this coin is strangely shaped; it is round on the outside and square on the inside, with a pair of wings on the left and right sides, which are even larger than the coin itself.

The Treasure-Falling Coin is a rare treasure of the Heavenly Dao. It can fall upon any treasure below the Supreme Treasure of the Primordial Chaos and can also calculate the mysteries of the Heavenly Dao, but it cannot fall upon weapons.

Seeing the giant, dark hand reaching out, the copper coin seemed to possess a spirit, and hurriedly flapped its wings, trying to fly away.

But where can it fly away?

Xuanhuang accepted the Fallen Treasure Coin, then took the Da Hong Pao tea tree. Without breaking the formation, he simply took Kong Xuan and left.

"I'll take you to meet my good friend first, and then we'll return to the temple," Xuanhuang said.

After leaving Wuyi Mountain, Xuanhuang stopped wandering around and instead used his great supernatural powers to break through the void, bringing Kong Xuan directly to the front of Wanshou Mountain.

Xuanhuang's cultivation is becoming increasingly powerful, and his supernatural abilities are becoming more and more terrifying. He is no longer like when he was first born, when it would take him thousands or tens of thousands of years to travel.

In the primordial world, most places are so easily accessible to Xuanhuang with his cultivation level that it would only take a moment to reach them.

It can be said that Xuanhuang's cultivation has already progressed very far in the path of Hunyuan.

Having touched upon the profound mysteries of the primordial chaos, his cultivation increased day by day, and his supernatural powers and magical strength naturally became incredibly formidable.

Even so, the stronger Xuanhuang's cultivation, the more he could feel how difficult it was to prove the Primordial Chaos.

He has only just begun on this path. To truly attain the Primordial Chaos Realm, he will likely need a long period of arduous cultivation.

Arriving at Longevity Hill, one is greeted by a different kind of scenery, even more serene and tranquil than the Wuyi Mountains one had just visited.

Xuanhuang, accompanied by Kong Xuan, walked up Wanshou Mountain, enjoying the scenery along the way. They saw flowing springs and waterfalls, green willows and white poplars, and everywhere was peaceful. Even the wild animals in the mountains were extremely quiet and not afraid of people.

Some small birds followed the two of them, hopping from tree to tree, chirping incessantly.

Xuanhuang arrived at the Wuzhuang Temple and saw that the gate was already open, with two boys standing guard beside it. Upon seeing Xuanhuang, they bowed and said, "Master, you foresaw that Senior was coming and have been waiting in the backyard for a long time."

"Um."

Xuanhuang nodded and followed the two boys to the backyard of Wuzhuang Temple. There, under the same ginseng fruit tree, Zhen Yuanzi sat at the stone table, and opposite the table was an empty stone stool.

"Fellow Daoist, you've severed your corpse and become a Quasi-Saint, and your cultivation has indeed improved considerably." Xuanhuang glanced at Zhen Yuanzi and couldn't help but laugh.

Without being polite, he sat down in the empty seat, with Kong Xuan standing behind him.

Zhen Yuanzi smiled and said, "Although my cultivation has improved quite a bit, it is still no match for yours, fellow Daoist."

"Your five-colored divine light, which soared across the primordial land last time, was truly magnificent. Now that you've come here, I wonder if you have anything to teach me?"

Xuanhuang shook his head, glanced at Zhen Yuanzi, and said, "You no longer need my teaching."

"The only reason I came here is to try and get some of your fruit. Why don't you bring a few?"

Upon hearing this, Zhen Yuanzi shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Then you won't be able to take advantage of the autumn wind."

"You don't know, that scoundrel Hongyun just visited me and took all the fruit. Not to mention you, even I, the master, didn't get to eat a single one."
