Primordial Era: I, the Golden Toad of Many Treasures, gather countless treasures to prove the Great

About 20,000 miles southwest of Jubao Cave, there is a secluded, nameless valley.

Jin Xuan's six-winged armor retracted, and he quietly landed at the valley entrance.

The valley was filled with miasma, and the faint scent of blood lingered in the air.

But beneath the Golden Profound Treasure Cave's World-Seeking Eye, there lies a subtle aura of treasure even deeper within.

If it weren't for the guidance of the Sky-Splitting Rhinoceros, he would probably have missed this treasure again if he had observed its aura.

"The precious energy is condensed but not released, hidden among the mountains and the earth's veins. This Cleansing Tree is quite intelligent and knows how to protect itself," Jin Xuan thought to himself as he stepped into the valley.

Then he saw the miasma and poisonous fog, as if drawn by some force, surge toward him.

However, the Golden Profound Blessing Golden Body Technique automatically activated, and although it was only the first rotation, it was easily swayed by the golden-red blessing light that was integrated into the flesh and bones of the body.

Not only that, the miasma also vanished quickly amidst a hissing sound.

Jin Xuan walked with composure and without any haste.

Besides treasure hunting, he also intends to use himself as bait to lure the Hundred Poison Ancestor into a trap, so naturally he needs some time.

After about half a day, Jin Xuan leisurely found the location of the Cleansing Tree.

The Washing Tree grows in a clear spring pool no more than ten feet in size. The spring water is crystal clear and emits a faint fragrance, dispelling the surrounding miasma.

"This spring water is quite good; it's actually a spiritual spring." Then Jin Xuan's gaze fell on the small tree next to the spring.

The sapling was only four or five feet tall, with a dark golden trunk, sparse branches and leaves that were as clear as jade, and light flowing through its veins.

The tree trunk and leaves are imprinted with Taoist patterns, which are quite remarkable.

On the branch hung nine fruits with pale golden patterns, which were the same Cleansing Fruits that had been seen in the hands of the Sky-Splitting Rhinoceros.

"A mid-grade innate spiritual root, the Karma Cleansing Tree. It takes three hundred years to flower, three hundred years to bear fruit, and three hundred years to mature... The fruiting speed is quite fast, making it perfect for exchanging for rare and precious materials."

Jin Xuan's lips curled up, and he was about to pick the ripe fruit and transplant the Cleansing Tree away.

Not far from the Washing Tree, the earth suddenly rose up, as if a small mountain had risen from below.

Then appeared a colossal creature tens of thousands of feet in size, its body almost occupying the entire valley, exuding a fierce aura and entangled in karmic force.

This ferocious beast resembled a lizard, its body covered in black and red scales, and its eyes were as red as houses. It roared fiercely at Jin Xuan.

A stench filled the air, and the terrifying, blade-like fangs were chillingly menacing. The saliva that dripped onto the ground corroded a large pit.

"How dare a mindless, karmic beast occupy such a spiritual root?" This perilous place has actually given birth to a ferocious beast with the cultivation of a Xuanxian.

The ferocious beast race first appeared during the Great Calamity of Ferocious Beasts.

However, this race's perception is inexhaustible, and they cannot be completely eradicated.

All negative forces can give rise to such ferocious creatures.

The miasma in the valley is an important condition for the growth of this creature.

The ferocious beast's intelligence was completely corrupted. Upon seeing Jin Xuan's birth, it not only did not retreat but instead charged towards Jin Xuan.

As it moved, a pair of fleshy wings appeared behind it.

With a flap of its fleshy wings, it transformed into a black afterimage, stirring up a sky full of murderous aura, and rushed straight towards Jin Xuan.

Seeing this, Jin Xuan did not use any spiritual treasures or other supernatural powers, but wanted to test the effects of his own Fortune and Virtue Golden Body Technique.

Once the Golden Body of Fortune Technique is mastered to the first level, one can withstand celestial beings with just their physical body.

However, Jin Xuan already possesses the cultivation level of the early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal, and his physical body is already quite remarkable.

Immediately, he pointed his fingers like a sword, and a golden-red light shone from his body.

A golden-red aura of good fortune suddenly flashed from his fingertips, piercing directly at the ferocious beast before him.

Ferocious beasts are malevolent creatures, which are restrained by the Golden Body of Fortune.

The malevolent energy has no effect on the golden light of good fortune.

Like ice and snow piercing a branding iron, it easily penetrates the malevolent energy.

The golden-red light continued its relentless advance, piercing straight through the monster's head, scattering red and white matter all over the ground.

The beast's attack came to an abrupt halt, and a moment later it fell silent.

"Indeed, the First Transformation of the Golden Body of Fortune and Virtue Technique, combined with the characteristics of the Golden Light of Fortune and Virtue, even with the support of my own physical body, allowed me to kill the ferocious beast with the cultivation level of a Profound Immortal so easily without using the power of a Taiyi Golden Immortal."

Jin Xuan's eyes lit up, and he became even more eager for the next installment of the Fortune Golden Body Technique.

He was about to step forward and pick the fruit of purification when he suddenly stopped, feeling a powerful aura rapidly approaching.

"The fish has taken the bait!"

Jin Xuan smiled.

However, the next moment, he realized something was wrong.

Boom boom boom!

Three figures landed in a triangular formation nearby, completely blocking the valley.

On the left is Dang Kang, a stout man with a pig's head and a human body, protruding tusks, wielding a nine-toothed rake, and possessing the cultivation level of a late-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal.

When Kang Jian saw the Cleansing Karma Tree, his eyes gleamed with golden light, and he almost drooled: "Cleansing Karma Fruit! There is such a treasure! Hahaha, this is wonderful! I have been trapped in the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal for dozens of eons, and my karma is hard to dispel. With this treasure, I can become a Great Luo Golden Immortal in no time."

In the center was a cold, gloomy woman dressed in pale white bone armor; she was none other than Lady Jade Bone.

Lady Jade Bone held a bracelet made of the finger bones of some unknown creature in her hand and chuckled, "Not only that, if one can possess the Cleansing Karma Tree, the karma will flow steadily. In the future, not only will one not fear being burdened by karma, but one can also exchange it for many benefits."

"Enough with the nonsense! Kill this guy first!" On the right stood the Huodou, a creature engulfed in black and red flames, wielding a trident, its eyes gleaming with ferocity.

"Such a good thing exists... What a huge loss." The Hundred Poisons Ancestor remained hidden in the miasma, not showing himself directly.

Previously, "Xuan Lingzi" had concealed his aura and could not be sensed.

But recently this aura suddenly appeared, and the Hundred Poison Ancestor felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what it was.

Using oneself as bait?

He didn't think such a thing would happen.

After all, Xuanlingzi was only at the early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal, and he had no chance of winning against Xuanlingzi, who was at the peak of Taiyi Golden Immortal.

As for asking a Great Immortal to intervene?

Even more impossible!

However, it is always better to be cautious. He discussed with Dang Kang, Lady Yu Gu, and Huo Dou that he would hide himself and intercept "Xuan Ling Zi" who was preparing to escape.

All three naturally agreed that they did not believe that the combined power of the three to create "Xuan Lingzi" could cause any trouble.

The reason they joined forces to deal with Xuan Lingzi was merely to share the backlash of their merits.

"Why are there three unfamiliar guys here?" Jin Xuan asked, puzzled. He didn't know if the battle earlier had attracted their attention or if his "fishing" had failed.

He didn't consider the fact that the Hundred Poisons Ancestor had invited three helpers. After all, a Taiyi Golden Immortal at the peak of his cultivation would need three late-stage Taiyi Golden Immortals to deal with a Taiyi Golden Immortal at the early stage, and they would all be hiding their abilities.

This kind of thing sounds outrageous no matter how you look at it.

unless……

The Hundred Poisons Ancestor was even more stable and cunning than Jin Xuan.

"Hehehe! Don't try to take it from me, this guy's flesh and blood essence is mine!" Kang took the lead, roaring and waving his nine-toothed rake.

In an instant, the hairs on his entire body stood on end like steel needles.

Above the rake, a bright yellow light shone, transforming into a majestic phantom mountain that crashed down upon Jin Xuan.

Supernatural power—earth-shattering!
