Chapter 3: Refining the Golden Dragon of Fortune, Second-Grade Pure White Lotus!
"roar!"
Sensing the intruder, the Golden Dragon of Fortune instinctively roared towards the Primordial Beginning.
"You beast, how dare you be so insolent!"
With cold, sharp eyes, Tai Chu was surrounded by dazzling golden light, his divine body brimming with blood and energy, and his palm reached out to grab the golden dragon of fortune.
"roar!"
The Golden Dragon of Fortune cried out in pain, sensing the immense power of the Primordial Chaos, and attempted to flee.
"Divine Decree, suppress!"
He decisively summoned the innate supreme treasure, the Divine Edict, to seal the heavens and the earth, and calmly watched the golden dragon of destiny.
"You're not convinced? I'll give you a chance!"
With piercing eyes, Tai Chu punched the head and horns of the Golden Dragon of Fortune one blow after another.
Despite the continuous dissipation of fortune, the Golden Dragon of Fortune persists.
"The weak can only be slaughtered."
"When you are too weak, persisting is pointless and only causes you more pain."
Looking down indifferently at the golden dragon of destiny, Tai Chu spoke calmly.
What appears to be a warning to the Golden Dragon of Fortune is actually a more direct realization of the cruelty of the primordial world from the very beginning.
The weak are destined to be bullied.
The strong are respected, and the weak are preyed upon by the strong—this is the ironclad law of the primordial world!
What do you mean by "the trend is irreversible"?
If you are stronger than the Heavenly Dao, then your words become the ultimate trend!
The strong make the rules, and the weak obey them!
"roar!"
Unwilling to accept defeat, the golden dragon of destiny roared at the beginning of time, clearly showing signs of developing some intelligence.
"Should we say you have great fortune, or is this all the fortune you've got?"
Looking at the golden dragon of fortune with strange oddities, Tai Chu was somewhat surprised.
Based on the intelligence displayed by the Golden Dragon of Fortune, it will take form and be born into the world together with the Three Pure Ones at most in the ninth kalpa.
With the manifestation of destiny, and the foundation of a top-tier innate deity or demon, the future of the Golden Dragon of Destiny is limitless.
However, after encountering the Primordial Beginning, the Golden Dragon of Fortune had no future.
"melt!"
Boundless divine fire erupted from the center of the primordial brow, burning the golden dragon of fortune and refining it into the purest energy.
As he put the divine fire into his mouth, Tai Chu felt his primordial spirit become clear, and his limbs and bones were filled with boundless power.
The qi and blood surged into the sky like smoke, flesh and blood shone with the light, and the gaps between bones collided, unleashing the thunderous roar of tigers and leopards.
"call!"
He exhaled a breath of golden energy, and Tai Chu's eyes transformed into golden pupils, which quickly disappeared again.
Primordial purple energy emanated from all parts of the Heavenly Court, and countless extraordinary phenomena appeared, as if celebrating the arrival of a master.
Having forged the Golden Dragon of Fortune, Tai Chu took control of all the powers of the divine realm—the Heavenly Court.
Tai Chu could scan everything in the Heavenly Court with a single thought without any hindrance.
"This is?"
With a slight movement of his eyes, Tai Chu transformed into a golden stream of light and landed in a strange place completely shrouded in milky white.
The colorful rays of the sunset intertwined with the milky white mist, and a sacred lotus platform could be vaguely seen.
The lotus platform is placed in the middle of a pond.
The milky-white airflow was entirely condensed from the laws of creation, interwoven with the powerful laws of purification.
The laws of creation originate from the water in the pool, while the laws of purification originate from the sacred lotus platform in the center of the pool.
Even though Tai Chu had already reached the pinnacle of the Taiyi Golden God realm, with each breath he felt his primordial spirit refreshed and as light as an immortal.
"The Creation Pool is nurturing not the Twelve-Petal Creation Green Lotus, but the Twelve-Petal Purifying White Lotus!"
As Tai Chu's divine sense swept over the area, he was quite surprised.
As the first god and demon of chaos, Pangu possessed three innate spiritual treasures.
The Primordial Chaos Treasure, the Heaven-Opening Axe; the Primordial Chaos Treasure, the Jade Disc of Creation; and the Primordial Chaos Treasure, the Thirty-Six-Petaled Primordial Chaos Green Lotus.
The attempt to create the world failed, and the Heaven-Opening Axe shattered into three pieces, transforming into three supreme treasures each possessing fifty restrictions.
These are the Pangu Banner, the Taiji Diagram, and the Chaos Bell.
The Jade Disc of Creation was also shattered, with the largest piece going to Hongjun.
Hongjun's ability to become the first Heavenly Sage of the Heavenly Dao, aligning himself with the Heavenly Dao and attaining the Heavenly Dao Fruit through a unique path, was inseparable from the help of the fragments of the Jade Disc of Creation.
The thirty-six-petaled Chaos Green Lotus shattered even more completely.
The lotus flowers transformed into the Five Elements and Five Directions Flags, and the lotus leaves transformed into the Hetu and Luoshu, the Mountain and River Map, and so on.
The lotus pod transformed into the Qiankun Cauldron, while the lotus stem, eroded by the evil energy of creation, transformed into the God-Slaying Spear.
Its original rank dropped to the 24th grade of the Creation Green Lotus, and then shattered into three top-grade innate spiritual treasures: a red flower, a white lotus root, and a green lotus leaf.
They fell into the hands of the Three Pure Ones.
Before the thirty-sixth grade Chaos Green Lotus shattered, it nurtured five lotus seeds.
They were separated into different forms.
The Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus of Merit.
The Twelve Grades of the Red Lotus of Karmic Fire.
The Twelfth Grade World-Destroying Black Lotus.
A twelve-grade Creation Lotus!
The last lotus seed disappeared without a trace, and no one knows what kind of lotus platform it transformed into.
Tai Chu never expected that the fifth lotus seed would actually be nurtured in the Creation Pool of the Heavenly Court, a divine-level training ground, and would become the Twelfth Grade Pure World White Lotus!
"Come!"
Without further thought, Tai Chu took the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus into his palm during the Recruitment.
Any lotus flower can continuously produce lotus seeds, which can then be transformed into lotus flowers of three, six, or nine grades, corresponding to innate spiritual treasures of the lower, middle, and upper grades.
Its power is slightly weaker than that of the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus, but it is still a rare and valuable defensive treasure.
In the beginning, God was the Lord of the Way; it was impossible for Him to be alone.
Just like Hongjun, who later recruited the Six Sages of Xuanmen and became high above them.
The founder of the Shinto religion personally attended to every matter, which somewhat diminished his status.
The disciples of the Immortal Path have a share of the Treasure Rock, but if the disciples of the Divine Path are penniless, it is the Divine Path that suffers in terms of reputation.
"Splash!"
Just as he acquired the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus, the Divine Pool of Creation suddenly began to boil.
A beam of black light suddenly appeared, and a powerful, malevolent aura surged towards the Primordial Beginning.
Wherever it goes, everything withers and the laws of creation are obliterated.
"town!"
"Refine!"
With a wave of his hand, he used the innate supreme treasure, the divine talisman, to suppress it, and Tai Chu directly refined the ten restrictions of the black light spiritual treasure.
He thought it was a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the God-Slaying Spear, but unexpectedly, it was beyond Tai Chu's expectations.
"The Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure—The Immortal-Slaying Sword!"
Like the God-Slaying Spear, the Immortal-Slaying Sword is a manifestation of pure malevolent energy, making it an absolute weapon of slaughter.
If a Taiyi Golden Immortal can withstand the malevolent energy of the Immortal-Slaying Sword, he might even be able to defeat a Daluo Golden Immortal.
However, what surprised Taichu the most was...
The twelfth-grade Pure White Lotus has no relation to the thirty-sixth-grade Chaos Green Lotus.
The Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus is the companion spiritual treasure of the Great Venerable of Purification, who ranks among the top twenty of the Three Thousand Chaos Demon Gods.
Its original form was a twenty-fourth-grade Pure World White Lotus, which shattered during the Battle of Creation and fell to become a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, a twelveth-grade Pure World White Lotus.
Having been nurtured for countless years in the Divine Pool of Creation, the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus, besides possessing the pure laws of purification, also exhibits a trace of the laws of creation.
In terms of defense alone, the Twelfth Grade Pure World White Lotus is comparable to the Acquired Merit Treasure - the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda!
"Is this the divine fortune that has been fused with the Golden Dragon of Fortune?"
"Truly blessed!"
Tai Chu sensed the wondrous effects of fortune.
Logically speaking, the Immortal-Slaying Sword should be formed by combining the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus, the Divine Pool of Creation, and fragments of the Great Millstone of Annihilation with the evil spirits that created the world.
Because their fundamental laws are contradictory, they will gradually erode each other in the endless entanglement of time.
As a result, they were obtained in the beginning just when they were at their most perfect stage of development.
Whether it's the Twelfth Grade Pure World White Lotus or the Immortal Killing Sword, they are both only top-grade innate spiritual treasures.
However, because they were Chaos Treasures that fell from their original rank.
Therefore, with sufficient resources, both the Twelve-Grade Pure World White Lotus and the Immortal-Slaying Sword have the potential to be upgraded to innate supreme treasures or even chaotic spiritual treasures.
Taichu does not yet know how to restore the original source of the Twelve-Petaled Pure White Lotus.
Restoring the original source of the Immortal-Slaying Sword would be quite simple and straightforward.
Slaughter!
By continuously killing and absorbing enough malevolent energy, the Immortal-Slaying Sword can be upgraded to a supreme innate treasure!
Even if it is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the killing power of the Immortal Killing Sword is terrifying enough, and only the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation can suppress it.
If it is promoted to a supreme innate treasure.
Even with the Four Swords of Zhuxian and the Zhuxian Formation Diagram, they would probably only be able to rival a single Immortal-Slaying Sword.
"At present, my offense and defense are unparalleled. Even when facing several experts of the same level, I can remain invincible."
"It's time to spread the light of the divine!"
With piercing eyes, Taichu was eager to try.
In the beginning was the progenitor of the divine way, the forerunner of the divine way.
The stronger the divine way, the stronger the beginning.
However, if only Taichu walks the path of the gods, then the path of the gods will forever remain a minor one.
Why did Hongjun give three lectures at Zixiao Palace to spread the Dao of Immortality?
The more people who walk the path of immortality, the more tuition fees they will have to pay, and these fees will continue to be paid.
Therefore, the more beings practice the path of immortality, the more tuition fees (luck) Hongjun receives, and the stronger the path of immortality becomes.
In this virtuous cycle, the Immortal Path naturally surpassed all other paths, becoming the sole mainstream path in the primordial world.
Hongjun has not yet become the Dao Lord of the Immortal Path. All living beings in the world are ignorant and have no way to cultivate. They are feeling their way across the river by touching the stones.
At this time, the Primordial Chaos bestowed divine light and imparted divine teachings, which would surely attract countless beings from the primordial world!
Walk the path of Hongjun, leaving Hongjun with nowhere to go!
