Primordial Era: I, Zhao Gongming, refuse to be an experience pack.

Looking into the distance, the water and sky blend into one, with the vast expanse of blue waves.

Countless lotus flowers float on the water's surface.

Some lotus buds are about to bloom, delicate and beautiful! Some are in full bloom, radiating a myriad of rays of light! Some have already formed lotus pods, filling the air with their fragrance. The various colors of the lotus flowers complement each other, turning the entire water area into a colorful and vibrant painting.

The intense, overwhelming aura of innate wood and water wafted over Zhao Gongming, causing every pore on his body to open up, as if he were immersed in warm, precious nectar.

"What a blessed land!" he exclaimed.

This is the Lotus Pond.

Zhao Gongming concealed his aura, slowly descended from the clouds, and landed by the pool. He did not rush to go deeper, but instead slowly spread his divine sense, like a spring breeze caressing willows, carefully exploring his surroundings.

Although this place is a blessed land, in the primordial world, opportunities and crises often coexist. The more precious the place, the more likely it is that a powerful person will cultivate here, or that it will be occupied by a powerful being.

As he scanned the area with his divine sense, he discovered that many creatures were practicing breathing exercises and cultivation by the pond. Most of them were transformed flower and plant spirits, and their cultivation levels were not high.

Deep within the marshland, several hidden yet powerful auras emanated, seemingly beings at the level of Taiyi Golden Immortals, each occupying a portion of the water and refraining from intruding upon one another.

Zhao Gongming understood that as long as he didn't trespass on the territory of those beings, there would be no major problems.

He walked along the edge of the pool, step by step. His background as a chaotic god and demon gave him an extraordinary sensitivity to the primordial energy of heaven and earth.

He was searching, searching for the purest innate vitality that might exist in the Lotus Pond.

One day, two days... three days passed.

Zhao Gongming walked almost around the perimeter of the Ten Thousand Lotus Pond, collecting some exceptional-quality lotuses, but he still couldn't find the feeling he was looking for.

Just as he was about to delve deeper into the pool to find out what was going on, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.

A faint, yet supremely pure, innate aura seemed to transcend the barriers of time and space, gently touching his divine sense.

That aura was pure and holy, carrying a charm that purified all things!

"Found it!"

A dazzling light flashed in Zhao Gongming's eyes, and without hesitation, he followed the source of the aura and fled into the depths of the Ten Thousand Lotus Pond.

His figure moved like lightning, leaping across the thousands of lotus leaves in a few bounds, already penetrating a hundred miles into the water. The deeper he went, the clearer the pure, innate aura became. The surrounding scenery also began to change; the ordinary immortal lotuses gradually disappeared, replaced by golden lotuses and jade lotuses of higher grade, each one radiant with light and dazzling with precious energy.

Finally, Zhao Gongming stopped in front of a body of water shrouded in thick white fog.

Pushing aside the fog, the sight before him made him gasp for breath.

Before them lay a pool of water, about ten feet in circumference, crystal clear and pristine. In the center of the pool, a large white lotus floated serenely.

The white lotus had twelve petals, its entire body as white as jade, pure and flawless. Each petal seemed to be engraved with the ultimate truth of heaven and earth, and wisps of innate vitality surrounded the lotus platform, transforming into auspicious clouds and auspicious energy, making it appear as if it were the embodiment of the Great Dao.

It stood there quietly, yet it seemed to be the center of this world, the source of all things.

A powerful aura that suppressed bad luck and purified impurities swept over us.

"Pure Lotus of the World!" Zhao Gongming's heart pounded violently.

This lotus flower is actually a mid-grade innate spiritual treasure!

Around the white lotus, an invisible array of light enveloped it, with flowing Dao patterns on it, mysterious and unpredictable. It was clearly a powerful innate array protecting this treasure.

Zhao Gongming took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart.

He activated his divine sense and carefully touched the array's light barrier.

hum!

A powerful force rebounded, and thousands of runes instantly lit up on the array's light screen, spreading a chilling aura.

"The innate protective array... just as I expected." Zhao Gongming was not surprised.

If a spiritual treasure of this caliber were not protected by an array, it would probably have been taken away by those powerful beings long ago.

He didn't force his way in. Instead, with a thought, twenty-four azure beads flew out from his sleeve and surrounded him. These were the Sea-Stabilizing Divine Pearls!

"Break the formation with a treasure!"

With a flick of his wrists, Zhao Gongming summoned the twenty-four Sea-Stabilizing Pearls, which spun rapidly and transformed into twenty-four beams of blue divine light. Following a mysterious trajectory, they gently collided with different nodes of the innate formation!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Each impact felt like striking a weak point in the formation. The light barrier shook violently, and the runes flowing across it began to become disordered.

Zhao Gongming is now a Chaos God and Demon, and his understanding of the Great Dao is far beyond what it used to be.

In his eyes, this innate formation, though still profound, was no longer without flaws.

Using the Chaos Treasure, the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, as his tool and his own understanding of the Great Dao as his guide, he was gradually deconstructing this great formation!

Half an hour later.

With a crisp "snap" sound, the light screen protecting the Pure White Lotus shattered like broken glass, dissipating into countless specks of light.

A surge of innate vitality, more than ten times stronger than before, erupted with a deafening roar!

Zhao Gongming was overjoyed and no longer hesitated. He reached out and grabbed the twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus, which emitted a soft sound, turned into a white light, and fell into his palm.

The lotus platform felt warm and smooth to the touch, and a cool sensation instantly flowed through his body, clearing his mind as if washing away all the dust.

At that very moment, the cold system notification sound exploded in his mind!

[A Primordial Spiritual Treasure—Purifying White Lotus (Mid-Grade)—has been detected!]

[A trace amount of the Chaos Green Lotus essence was detected within it...]

[Simulation plan generated...]

[It can consume Primordial Points and Chaos Origin Matter to transform it into a Chaos Treasure—the Thirty-Six Grade Chaos Green Lotus!]

[Preliminary Deduction (Requirements for Advancing from Rank 12 to Rank 24): 10000 Primordial Points, 1 wisp of Chaos Qi!]

Should we conduct a simulation immediately?

The cold system notification sound, like a thunderclap from the heavens, exploded in Zhao Gongming's mind. Every word seemed to contain the essence of the Great Dao, instantly stirring up even more violent waves in his mind, which had just been agitated by obtaining the spiritual treasure.

Chaos Qinglian!

Thirty-six grades of Chaos Green Lotus!

This is not merely the name of a magical treasure; it represents a legend, an era, a supreme divine object from before chaos and the separation of primordial order! It is the unparalleled foundation upon which the great god Pangu was born!

Zhao Gongming's mind almost came to a standstill at this moment.

He originally thought that being able to deduce this twelfth-grade Pure World White Lotus into a twenty-fourth or thirtieth-grade supreme innate spiritual treasure would already be an immense stroke of luck. But he never imagined that this Primordial Deduction System would be so… heaven-defying!

It is possible to use this mid-grade innate spiritual treasure, which contains a trace of the original essence, as a base and the chaotic energy as a guide to recreate the legendary chaotic treasure!
