Primordial Era: A God-Level Choice, Possessing Zhao Gongming at the Start.

Chapter 340 The Nine-Turn Nirvana Pill of a Primordial Golden Immortal

"Disciples Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi greet Master."

Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi bowed respectfully.

Zhao Gongming looked up at Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi, his eyes brightening slightly.

The two possessed powerful auras, almost reaching the limit of Taiyi Golden Immortals.

The next step may be a sudden enlightenment, leading to successful attainment of enlightenment.

They may be trapped for hundreds or thousands of years, but what is certain is that...

If things continue like this, it's only a matter of time before he attains the Great Luo Realm and the Three Flowers bloom.

"Indeed, it seems that attaining the Great Luo Dao is just around the corner."

Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi exchanged a glance, scratched their heads somewhat embarrassedly, and chuckled.

"It's all thanks to our master's excellent teaching; otherwise, with our aptitude, how could we be where we are today?"

"If you hadn't been diligent and hardworking, how could you have achieved your current level of cultivation?"

After Zhao Gongming finished speaking, he paused, took out a golden jade talisman, and said solemnly, "I am going to Chaos. Three months later, your grandmaster will set up the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation at Tongguan. If I can return before the formation is set up, everything will be fine. If I do not return, you should take this jade talisman to the Thirty-Three Heavens Taisu Heaven and ask the Holy Mother Nuwa to come out of the mountains."

"Teacher, we understand."

Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi nodded earnestly.

When they looked at Zhao Gongming again, the prayer mat was empty.

In the vast chaos, the twilight air swirled, and earth, fire, water, and wind were everywhere; as far as the eye could see, there was only darkness and cold.

After entering the Chaos, Zhao Gongming tried his best to stay away from the primordial world and flew deeper into the Chaos.

He wanted to suppress the news of his breakthrough as much as possible to avoid any unforeseen changes.

In the Bajing Palace on Shouyang Mountain, Laozi of Taiqing sits on a futon.

Yuanshi sat beside him, and neither of them spoke, making the atmosphere in the vast Bajing Palace somewhat oppressive.

"Brother!"

Yuanshi said, "I have come here to ask for medicine for my few good-for-nothing disciples."

The seven remaining Golden Immortals of Kunlun had their five vital energies and three flowers on their heads removed, and were reduced to mortals.

There are only three ways to restore them to their original state.

First, we use the original essence of sages to rebuild their foundation and attain the fruits of the Tao.

Secondly, finding the source of chaos can also repair their damaged foundation.

Thirdly, there is the Nine-Turn Nirvana Pill refined by Taiqing.

Of these three methods, the first one would consume the essence of a sage, which was too costly, so Yuanshi naturally did not want to use it.

Besides, the battle with the Tongtian Sect Leader is in three months, and using this method now would be tantamount to cutting oneself in two.

As for the Chaos Dao Source, it only exists in the Chaos and is extremely rare.

It might take tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years, or even longer to find one.

With only two or three months until the great battle, Yuanshi had no time to search.

Therefore, the only option left is the third one: to obtain the Nine-Turn Nirvana Pill refined by Laozi of the Taiqing Sect.

The Nine-Turn Nirvana Pill is derived from the phoenix's rebirth through fire. Each rebirth through fire restores a portion of its foundation.

After nine cycles, his Dao foundation was restored, and his cultivation returned to its peak.

Taiqing nodded. "I've also heard about the Battle of Tongguan. Guangchengzi and the others had their five qi in their chests extinguished and their three flowers on their heads removed. It's indeed a difficult situation."

"That's why I came to my elder brother's place, hoping to obtain the Nine-Turn Nirvana Pill."

Taiqing frowned. "The Nine-Turn Nirvana Pill is extremely difficult to refine. It takes away the creation of the sun and moon, and invades the rotation of heaven and earth. It consumes countless precious materials, and it takes ten thousand years to refine one. I only have four left."

There are only four.

Yuanshi was immediately stumped. Guangchengzi, Chijingzi, Yuding, Taiyi, Wenshu, Puxian, and Cihang—a total of seven people—how should they divide these four pills?

But if one doesn't seek out elixirs, how can a dignified direct descendant of Kunlun, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals, be treated like a useless person?

Yuanshi sighed. "May I ask, elder brother, is there any other way?"

"Besides using my own essence to heal you, the only other path left is the Chaos Dao Source, but that Chaos Dao Source is extremely precious, and I don't have any of it."

Taiqing shook her head.

"Please, elder brother, bestow medicine upon us to save my disciples of the Chan Sect."

Taiqing nodded and waved his hand, and four jade bottles appeared out of thin air, landing in Yuanshi's hands.

After obtaining the medicine, Yuanshi said, "Elder brother, Tongtian has become increasingly arrogant since the family split up years ago. He doesn't take anyone seriously. In three months, he plans to set up the Zhuxian Sword Formation at Tongguan. Such an outrageous act requires your help to deal with Tongtian!"

When Yuanshi revealed the core purpose of his visit, Taiqing showed some hesitation.

"Red flowers, white lotus roots, and green lotus leaves—the three religions were originally one family. The Three Pure Ones share the same roots and have cultivated together for billions of years. How has it come to the point where they have to turn against their own brothers?"

"Elder brother, it's not that we want to attack Tongtian, but that Tongtian is completely wrong."

Yuanshi pulled out his trump card, saying each word clearly, "Elder brother, the Way of Heaven is impartial and maintains the operation of all things. This primordial world should rightfully be governed by us sages."

"But in recent years, the Jie Sect has claimed to be a place where ten thousand immortals pay homage, with its disciples spread throughout the prehistoric world. At the same time, it supports the human race, and the human race's fortune grows stronger day by day. With such a powerful alliance, won't this prehistoric world become a place where that scoundrel Tongtian has absolute power? Where will we saints be then?"

"Furthermore, the primordial fortune is fixed; it will neither increase nor decrease. The Jie Sect, founded by Tongtian, grows stronger day by day, monopolizing more and more of the Heavenly Dao's fortune. Have they ever considered our situation? This time, we are fighting back out of sheer desperation."

Taiqing sighed. Yuanshi had hit the nail on the head.

This great calamity, in essence, is a struggle for the orthodox lineage, only manifested through the event of Haotian's investiture of the gods.

"Are you aware that back in Zixiao Palace, the Dao Ancestor once said that the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation could not be broken by any less than four sages? Tongtian is straightforward and doesn't understand subtlety. How are we supposed to deal with him?"

Among the six sages of the primordial era, Taiqing undoubtedly possesses the most profound cultivation.

But in terms of combat power, it is the Tongtian Sect Leader who wields the supreme weapon of slaughter.

In a one-on-one fight, Taiqing had no confidence in defeating Tongtian, and even with Yuanshi added to the mix, they were still no match.

Yuanshi affirmed, "Yes, Daozu did say that the Zhuxian Sword Formation cannot be broken without the Four Saints, but we do indeed have four Saints on our side."

"Four sages?"

Suddenly, Taiqing's pupils contracted slightly. "You mean, to unite with those two in the West?"

There's nothing wrong with the Three Pure Ones taking matters into their own hands, but it wouldn't sound good if they joined forces with outsiders to deal with their own brothers.

Yuanshi affirmed, "That's right. I have already made an agreement with my two fellow Daoists from the West. We will join forces and gather the power of the four Sages to break the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation. It will be a piece of cake. Then, we will naturally be able to share the benefits that we deserve."

Yuanshi's eyes were full of confidence, as if he could already see the scene of the Zhuxian Sword Formation being broken, the Jie Sect being utterly defeated, and the Chan Sect rising to prominence.

Taiqing frowned. "Second brother, how can we unite with outsiders to attack our own brothers? What will the billions of cultivators in the prehistoric world think of us?"

After a moment of silence, Yuanshi said, "After the great destruction of the Zhuxian Sword Formation, the fortune of the human race and the Jie Sect can be divided among my elder brother forty percent."

Upon hearing this, Taiqing's expression changed slightly; he hadn't expected Yuanshi to be so generous.

"Alright, then meet me three months from now, before Tongguan Pass."

After Yuanshi left Shouyang Mountain, Xuandu entered the Bajing Palace with a hint of reluctance on his face.

"Teacher, do we really have to do this?"

Taiqing's face was deep and indifferent, and he did not answer Xuandu's question.

Xuan Du knew he couldn't persuade his teacher, so he had no choice but to give up and leave.

At the foot of a scenic valley in Kunlun Mountain, the immortals of Kunlun gathered together.
