Primordial Era: Innate gourd vine, self-dismemberment

If he wants to be born in the form of a primordial gourd, he either has to wait countless years, or he has to be born with the foundation of a high-ranking primordial deity!

These were all things he couldn't accept, so he had no other choice.

After a moment of contemplation, Yuan Yan controlled the innate essence of the innate gourd vine, converging it towards the vine where the first innate gourd was located, and also moved his own primordial spirit there.

Suddenly, Yuan Yan had a premonition that as long as he cut off that section of the innate gourd vine, he could use it to transform into human form and be born into the world.

However, Yuan Yan did not immediately sever the section of the innate gourd vine. Instead, he continued to control the essence of the innate gourd vine to converge there.

As the primordial essence of the gourd vine converged, the first primordial gourd also gained immense benefits, exuding a mysterious Daoist charm and a pervasive, rising aura of the Great Dao.

Yuan Yan only stopped after transferring nearly one-third of the innate essence of the innate gourd vine.

At this moment, he had a premonition that if he continued to transfer more innate essence and then cut off the vines, he would find it difficult to take human form and be born into the world.

"Slash! Slash! Slash..."

Yuan Yan roared inwardly, using his primordial spirit to circulate the Taiyi Golden Immortal Dao Fruit, unifying the three thousand laws and transforming it into a Great Dao Guillotine, which fiercely slashed at the connection between the vine where the first innate gourd was located and the innate gourd vine.

"Boom!" Instantly, the vine containing the first innate gourd was severed, and the innate gourd vine trembled violently, as if it were emitting a mournful cry.

However, at this moment, Yuan Yan had no time or energy to pay attention to the innate gourd vine. The opportunity for transformation he sensed became extremely strong, and he had a feeling that he could transform and be born.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yuan Yan immediately began to take human form and be born into the world.

"Boom!" As Yuan Yan had a thought, an invisible and intangible Great Dao of Heaven and Earth descended. Following this invisible and intangible Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, the innate gourd vines evolved, transforming into an infinitely mysterious innate Dao body, slowly forming a human figure.

After a long while, the colorful glow in the sky dissipated, and in its place appeared a young Taoist priest with a tall and handsome figure, dressed in a colorful Taoist robe.

"Above the Heavenly Dao, I am Yuan Yan, the Primordial Gourd Vine. Today I have taken human form and been born into this world. May the Heavenly Dao bear witness!" Yuan Yan declared with divine clarity.

"Boom!" A booming sound came from the darkness, as if in response to Yuan Yan's declaration.

At the same time, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth converged within the canyon, and various strange phenomena appeared, with flowers falling from the sky and golden lotuses emerging from the ground... seemingly celebrating the birth of a top-tier innate deity.

As for the tribulation lightning? There isn't one!

After a long while, the strange phenomena in the world dissipated, and a mysterious light flashed in Yuan Yan's eyes, containing the evolution of three thousand laws. Clearly, he had also gained a lot of benefits.

At this moment, Yuan Yan stood in the void of the canyon. He swept his divine sense across the canyon and took in everything. His mind was suddenly clear, and he felt a lightness all over his body. His worries and depression disappeared.

"I've finally taken human form and been born, and I no longer have to worry about being dismembered!"

He thought to himself, "Yuan Yan's Dao Heart is perfect and flawless. In an instant, he has reached the perfect level of Taiyi Golden Immortal in terms of primordial spirit power, which has increased again."

After a moment's hesitation, Yuan Yan took a step forward and arrived near the innate gourd vine. He sat cross-legged and began to stabilize his cultivation level.

After spending thousands of years stabilizing his cultivation level, Yuan Yan finally had time to take stock of his assets.

First, there was the innate gourd hanging from the innate gourd vine that he had transformed into. Before he transferred the innate origin of the gourd vine, this innate gourd was already a mid-to-high-grade innate spiritual treasure embryo.

When he transferred the innate origin of the innate gourd vine, the innate gourd also received great benefits.

When he took human form, this innate gourd was accelerated by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth to evolve into his companion innate spiritual treasure, a superior innate spiritual treasure with thirty-six innate divine restrictions.

(ps: Innate spiritual treasures are divided into five levels: low grade, middle grade, high grade, top grade, and top grade. Low grade innate spiritual treasures contain 1-12 innate divine restrictions, middle grade innate spiritual treasures contain 13-24 innate divine restrictions, high grade innate spiritual treasures contain 25-36 innate divine restrictions, top grade innate spiritual treasures contain 37-47 innate divine restrictions, and top grade innate spiritual treasures are also top grade innate spiritual treasures, but they are the ultimate in top grade innate spiritual treasures, containing 48 innate divine restrictions.)

Furthermore, the low-grade and mid-grade innate spiritual treasures are comparable to the Great Luo Golden Immortals, while the high-grade and supreme-grade innate spiritual treasures are comparable to the Primordial Golden Immortals.

Innate spiritual roots correspond perfectly to innate spiritual treasures!

However, this innate gourd is different from the purple-gold gourd that Taiqing originally obtained.

The purple-gold gourd embodies the principles of Yin and Yang, and can contain, nurture, and refine all things.

This innate gourd, under the influence of the Yuan Yan interference, is mainly based on the Yin-Yang Dao, supplemented by the Five Elements Dao and the Chaos Dao, and also contains a small amount of the Three Thousand Daos. It is called the Hunyuan Wandao Gourd.

The Hunyuan Wandao Gourd contains Yin and Yang energies, which can be reversed into a small chaos, or it can evolve into the Five Elements and myriad paths. It can also contain, nurture, and refine all things, which is similar to the Zijin Yin Yang Gourd.

Secondly, there is the innate gourd vine, which has lost nearly one-third of its innate essence.

Although the innate gourd vine was severely withered as a result, its grade did not drop. It remained the top-grade innate spiritual root. Moreover, the six innate gourds on it, although not yet mature, were all high-grade innate spiritual treasure embryos. If they were picked now, they could be refined into high-grade innate spiritual treasures with twenty-five or twenty-six innate divine restrictions.

If the innate gourd vine continues to nurture until its source is exhausted, even if not all of them will become top-grade innate spiritual treasures, at least four of them will become top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

Finally, there is the Nine Heavens Breath Soil from which the innate gourd vine takes root. The Nine Heavens Breath Soil is not only a special type of soil that can accelerate the growth of spiritual roots, but it is also an innate spiritual treasure. The Nine Heavens Breath Soil from which the innate gourd vine takes root is comparable to a top-grade innate spiritual treasure with thirty-nine innate divine restrictions.

Moreover, the Nine Heavens Breath Soil can continuously absorb innate spiritual energy and Daoist essence to split and grow. If given enough time, it is not impossible for it to grow into a top-tier innate spiritual treasure or even an innate supreme treasure.

However, the time required is far too long, perhaps several kalpas, or even dozens of kalpas.

"My current financial situation isn't bad! At least it's much better than those unlucky guys like Kunpeng and Hongyun!"

"However, the innate gourd vine is rooted in the Nine Heavens Breath Soil, which cannot be moved. My companion spiritual treasure, the Hunyuan Myriad Dao Gourd, is only a high-grade innate spiritual treasure, which is a bit low in rank. If I want to compete with other great supernatural beings in the future, I'm afraid it won't be enough."

I wonder if it's possible to hang it back on the innate gourd vine, allowing the vine to continue nurturing it, transforming it into a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, or even a supreme innate spiritual treasure.

With this thought in mind, Yuan Yan immediately began to deduce the truth by relying on his connection with the Hunyuan Wandao Gourd and the Xiantian Gourd Vine.

After some deduction, Yuan Yan's eyes lit up, and he discovered that it actually worked.

The reason he could do this was mainly because he did not remove it when he took human form. Although it has now evolved into his innate spiritual treasure, it is somewhat special and still retains vitality and some spiritual root characteristics.
