"It smells so good!" Haotian sniffed. He had never smelled such a fragrant spiritual fruit before. He had never had such an opportunity in his previous life.

Thinking of this, Haotian was once again grateful that he had transmigrated to this identity. If he had transmigrated into another cultivator in the prehistoric world, let alone taste the peaches of immortality, it would have been difficult for him to even survive.

After all, the primordial world was undergoing a great war at this time. It was the Dragon-Han Great Calamity initiated by the three races of creation. Even a Golden Immortal like him could only be a small soldier on the battlefield and was devoured by the meat grinder in an instant.

Haotian raised his head and carefully examined the Peach Garden. Purple clouds hung down around the garden, auspicious clouds stretched in thousands of strands, and fairy mist was like gauze, making it spring all year round.

The trees are laden with bright and beautiful flowers, and the branches are heavy with fruit.

Fruit hangs heavy on the branches like brocade balls, and flowers bloom profusely on the tree like clusters of rouge.

It blooms and bears fruit intermittently, ripening over a thousand years; it remains dormant for ten thousand years, without summer or winter.

The three hundred peach trees are laden with fruit, their leaves like jade, their blossoms like rouge. When the fruit is half-ripe, it is crimson with a hint of green, and when fully ripe, it is like red jade. A misty haze often hangs over the trees, and a unique fragrance lingers. The soil beneath them is the "Nine Heavens Breath Soil," a sacred soil that absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, as well as the essence of the sun and moon.

Haotian's eyes flickered. This was not the time for the master to hand over the peach spirit root to Yaochi so that she could recruit people for the Heavenly Court. After all, as a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, Hongjun had no need to do such a thing.

There's no need to divide them into different grades, as long as the number of peaches remains at three hundred. Hongjun usually only needs to recruit a few fellow Daoists. With the current potency of the peaches, an ordinary cultivator would probably break through to the Golden Immortal realm after eating just one.

What he and Yaochi needed was precisely the Ren water energy within the peaches of immortality.

There are ten supreme innate spiritual roots in the world, belonging to the Geng metal Bodhi tree, the Jia wood laurel, the Ren water peach, the Bing fire hibiscus tree, the Wu earth ginseng fruit tree, and the rest are the yellow plum, gourd vine, five-needle pine, bitter bamboo, and wind and thunder immortal apricot!

What Taiyi Golden Immortals need is to gather the five elements in their chests, and the best way is to use the five top-grade spiritual roots. Coincidentally, their Jade Capital Mountain has the Ren Water Peach, which is the perfect material for condensing the five elements.

Now, both he and Yaochi are at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, and they only need to condense one strand to break through.

The two sat cross-legged under a peach tree, carefully sensing the Ren water energy within the tree. Haotian Yuanshen looked inward and felt a clear emptiness in his Huangting (Yellow Court), with each of his five internal organs displaying five colors. Sensing the response from the peach tree, black energy flowed from his kidneys.

He continuously circulated his cultivation technique, drawing the Ren water energy into his kidneys. The kidney water palace opened, and the Ren water seemed to arrive from the Northern Darkness, gathering into a dark, cold mist that settled in his lower abdomen. It was icy cold to the bone, yet it nurtured life.

A water elemental aura swirled around Haotian, and he felt the water-attribute spiritual energy in the primordial world surging wildly towards him, constantly boosting his cultivation level.

In the darkness, Haotian seemed to hear a "pop" sound, as if something had shattered. He exuded a powerful aura, no longer feeling restricted, and was able to merge with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

He knew that he had successfully broken through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm. The water-attribute spiritual energy in the primordial world would now come directly to him without him having to actively absorb it. Since the kidneys govern water, he sensed that his kidneys were constantly growing stronger.

"Very good," Haotian said with a slight smile. "These are his kidneys, so I have to protect them well!"

Whether it was an illusion or not, Haotian felt a slight change in his body after opening his eyes. He conjured a water mirror and examined it closely. His figure had not grown, but his demeanor had become more mature.

Haotian pondered for a moment. If he could continue to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, he might break through the limitations of his virgin body and truly grow into a primordial god-demon.

Among the cultivators of the primordial world, the Golden Immortal and the Great Luo Golden Immortal are the two most important realms. The former represents a lifespan equal to that of heaven and earth, while the latter represents someone who has transcended the river of fate and comprehended the laws, and can be respectfully called a great supernatural being.

Even in the primordial world at this time, there were only a few hundred cultivators at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Among the many innate gods and demons who had taken human form, only the Three Pure Ones and other outstanding individuals could reach this realm.

He has already broken through to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, which means he caught the last train to the realm of innate gods and demons!

Haotian raised the corners of his mouth and touched his heart. He had merged with the Lesser Yang Qi from the Primordial World, making him a Lesser Yang Demon God. Since the heart belongs to fire, could he draw out the fire Qi himself and make another breakthrough?

After all, the Lesser Yang Qi of the Four Elements of Heaven and Earth is essentially higher than the pure Fire Qi. As the saying goes, Wuji gives rise to Taiji, Taiji gives rise to Yin and Yang. The Four Elements of Heaven and Earth are Taiyin and Taiyang, Lesser Yin and Lesser Yang, and he and Yaochi are Lesser Yang and Lesser Yin Qi, respectively.

Thinking of this, Haotian's expression changed. Could it be related to the fact that the original Haotian did not have the opportunity to prove the Primordial Chaos?

Lesser Yang is the nascent Yang, growing and rising upwards. Although it is also one of the four elements, it is not the most domineering. It governs growth and development. The Sun, on the other hand, is the Yang at its zenith, extremely intense and hot. It is the moment when Yang energy is most fierce and domineering, and it governs extreme strength and killing.

As the three-legged golden crow in human form, Di Jun represents the sun. Logically speaking, neither of them is complete, but with Di Jun's aptitude, he certainly has the potential to attain enlightenment.

Haotian's eyes gradually deepened. In terms of inheritance, the teachings he received were superior to those of Dijun. After all, he listened to the three lectures at Zixiao Palace, and being by Hongjun's side was the closest place to the Dao. The inheritance he received was no less than that of the Three Pure Ones.

Taking everything into account, only one possibility remains—the Eastern King Duke!

As a manifestation of the pure Yang energy in the primordial world, he is the essence of Yang, pure and perfect, and is essentially superior to him and Di Jun. Di Jun killed Dong Wang Gong, which means that he seized his fortune.

In that case, it's not surprising that Di Jun has the potential to attain enlightenment!

No, he must break through as soon as possible, otherwise all the opportunities in the primordial world will be taken up by others!

"Haotian, what's wrong?"

A call startled Haotian awake. When he came to his senses, he saw a chubby, cute face almost touching him.

"Yaochi, I'm fine." Haotian smiled at Yaochi. "I was just thinking about some things."

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Yaochi picked a peach and ate it, then handed one to Haotian. "We've been in seclusion for three thousand years, and Master still hasn't come out."

Haotian pondered for a moment: "Yaochi, I need your help in my cultivation!"

"You say it," Yaochi said without the slightest hesitation.

"You know I am of Lesser Yang Qi, and I need to extract Fire Qi from me to go a step further. However, Water and Fire are prone to conflict. Your Lesser Yin Qi can help me resolve this. If anything goes wrong, you must use the combination of Yin and Yang to help me alleviate the situation!" Haotian gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble.

He asked Yaochi for help because even if he failed to break through, he couldn't afford to get injured!

Yaochi tilted her head, looking even cuter: "The combination of yin and yang is interesting and fun."

She smiled and looked at Haotian: "Tell me, wouldn't you say our practice counts as dual cultivation?"

Haotian choked, almost choking on his saliva!
