Hongjun continued, “Some fights have now taken place between all living beings of Untainted Land. However, you don’t have suitable treasures. As my disciples, you should enjoy some Fated Chances. I travelled around Untainted Land before and found some spiritual treasures. Since I will merge with a Great Way, these treasures are useless to me and will be given to you for protection as well as helping to control Tribe in the future.”
The people below became very jealous upon hearing that. They had spared no effort to find Spiritual Treasures, while those people sitting in front could get treasures for free. Although they did not know what those Spiritual Treasures were, those that could be handed out by Ancestor Hongjun and used to control the Luck of Tribe must be the best.
The six sitting in front was very excited. Hongjun took out a map which was surrounded by thousands of blessing lights. The predictions of the Way of Dao floated above it and magic figures loomed in it. Hongjun said to Laozi, “Laozi, as you were converted from Pangu’s Original Spirit and my first disciple, you should be in charge of this Map of Taichi.”
Everyone was stunned by the Map of Taichi. It was one of the Three Treasures of Heaven and Earth Creation and a Primordial Supreme Treasure. It had the ability to supress the power of earth, water, fire and wind and convert Yin and Yang as well as embrace all the changes of the world. It was also the one that Ancestor Hongjun relied on to prevent from Luo Hou before.
Even though Laozi was a man with no desire, he took the map from Hongjun with joy upon his face. Laozi, Creation and Tongtian were all converted from Pangu’s Original Spirit. Except for a Postcelestial Merit Supreme Treasure, the Baraka Exquisite Pagoda, Laozi gained nothing after birth. Then he found a Top Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure, the Dragon Crutch converted from a part of the Green Lotus of Fate and a Spiritual inheritance of the Dao of Elixirs in Mount Buzhou.
Now Laozi suddenly got a Primordial Supreme Treasure, he could not be more excited. The Origin sitting beside him was a little jealous, “Laozi, as the head of the Three Pure Ones, is born with the Baraka Exquisite Pagoda, but Tongtian and I are born with nothing. I would always have nothing if I did not find the Three Treasure Jade that was converted from a part of the Green Lotus of Fate.”
In the past, Minghe left the secret realm of Mount Buzhou after getting Pangu’s Jade Essence, three lotus seeds of the Green Lotus of Fate and the Spiritual Inheritance in elixirs, tools and formation. A few years later, the Three Pure Ones travelled there and each got one Spiritual Inheritance from the debris of the Jade Butterfly of Fate left by Pangu .
The Green Lotus of Fate was divided into three. The lotus flower was converted into a Top Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure, the Dragon Crutch owned by Laozi. The lotus root was converted into a Top Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure, the Three Treasure Jade taken by the Primeval Lord. And the lotus leaf was converted into a Top Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure, the Qingping Sword for Tongtian. Thus, the lotus flower, root and leaf three Tribes originated from one.
Laozi sat back after receiving the Map of Taichi. Hongjun then took out a banner. It came out with plenty of colorful lights shining around the world and the power of a king showing its incomparable arrogance.
Hongjun said to the Primeval Lord, “Origin, you’re also converted from Pangu’s Original Spirit. The Pangu Banner can rip the Chaos apart. It deserves a good use and can also be used to control your tribe in the future.” Origin could not wait to take it from Hongjun upon hearing that.
Everyone else became even more jealous. Those that had seen the fight between Hongjun and Luo Hou knew that it was this banner that helped Ancestor Hongjun to defend against Luo Hou and have the opportunity to break the God-killing Sword Formation. As one of the Three Treasures of Heaven and Earth Creation, it could rip the Chaos apart, smash all spaces, rule all laws and create new heavens and new piles of earth.
When it came to Tongtian’s turn, Hongjun pondered for a little while and then took out a map of formation in which four sharp swords could be seen clearly. Although it was still suppressed by Ancestor Hongjun, the killing intent had already scared all the people. Those cultivators who had recognized this were beyond jealousy now.
Hongjun said to Tongtian, “Tongtian, since you’re born with a nature of killing, I will give you this God-killing Sword Formation. But you need to use it cautiously because of its strong power and heavy killing intent. It can only be broken by four Sages jointly.” Tongtian was fond of Kendo and tactical formations, this map combining swords with formation suited his taste very much. It was natural that he felt very happy.
Could only be broken by four Sages jointly? Everyone was shocked. Except for Ancestor Hongjun, even though all the seven people that received Hong Meng Immortal Qi became Sages, there was still no hope to break this formation. The Three Pure Ones were from one family, so would they not interfere when the other four Sages came to break the formation? All cultivators below agreed to not offend the Three Pure Ones for their own safety.
Tongtian was very happy to receive the God-killing Sword Formation. Laozi glanced at it and showed no changes on his face, but Origin was not happy. It was reasonable that Laozi received a better treasure than him, but now after Tongtian got the God-killing Sword Formation, he would become the weakest among the Three Pure Ones.
The Three Pure Ones were converted from Pangu’s Original Spirit, but they shared different characters. Laozi was quiet with no desire, Tongtian was straight and impetuous while Origin was arrogant and thought highly of himself. Now even Tongtian was more powerful than the Primeval Lord, which certainly made the Primeval Lord so jealous that he complained about Honourable Ancestor’s favouritism, “Why did Honourable Ancestor give the God-killing Sword Formation to Tongtian? If I could, I would rather change for it with my Pangu Banner.”
Now it was Hongjun’s last disciple, Goddess Nvywa’s turn. She was extremely jealous of the Three Pure Ones’ Primordial Supreme Treasures. She looked forward to it very much since except for the Eternal Spiritual Treasure, she only had one Top Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure that was given to her by Emperor Jun.
Hongjun took out two treasures, a map and a ball, and said, “Goddess Nvywa, you have a mild character and do not like fighting, as you will have great Merit in the future, I will give you the Mountain and River Map and the Red Woven Ball for protection and defense. They will keep you safe!” Goddess Nvywa thanked him immediately and took the two treasures.
The Red Woven Ball was a Primordial Spiritual Treasure and a Merit Sacred Tool which could manage marriages of Heaven, Earth and Humans in the three realms. It also had astonishing power, no matter how strong supernatural power you had, no one could escape from it. Both the physical body and the Original Spirit would be damaged when touched by it. However, it would not have such influence when encounting those at the same level.
The Mountain and River Map was a Primordial Spiritual Treasure with a huge power that could be on par with a Primordial Supreme Treasure. It was the map of Untainted Land, recording all the mountains, rivers and terrain in Untainted Land, including a great universe where hundreds of millions of creatures could live. It was just like a small real world.
Minghe was a little envious of Goddess Nvywa for receiving the Mountain and River Map. His Map of Heaven and Earth and the Mountain and River Map were both Primordial Spiritual Treasures, but the Mountain and River Map bettered his treasure in terms of power by a large margin. The Map of Heaven and Earth could only use the power of Heaven and Earth in the Heaven and Earth World, but the Mountain and River Map had the power of using the power of Untainted World.
Hongjun said nothing after gifting treasure to Goddess Nvywa and had no intention to give more. Zhunti instantly kowtowed and begged, “Our western world was barren and has few treasures. Master, please show some mercy to us and give us some treasures for protection.” Jieyin also immediately kowtowed at Hongjun.
Ancestor Hongjun glanced at them and said, “You two also have great perseverance and wisdom and have a Fated Chance to gain insight out of Dao, but you still belong to the western world. Okay, I will give you the Twelve Grade Golden Lotus of Merit and Cate’s Divine Rod.”
Jieyin received the Twelve Grade Golden Lotus of Merit and Zhunti got the Cate’s Divine Rod. Cate’s Divine Rod was just a Top Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure with an ability to beat mortals and immortals, but the Twelve Grade Golden Lotus of Merit’s ability enticed Minghe to snatch it immediately.
Upon seeing that Zhunti had begged for treasures successfully, everyone immediately kowtowed to beg the Honourable Ancestor. The hall became noisy instantly. “Those fated Primordial Spiritual Treasures have been given to their owners, the rest are placed on the Treasure Gifting Rock in the southeast of the palace. You can go for them.”
Hongjun said a few words to comfort the people. Upon hearing that, those people immediately rushed out of the Zixiao Palace and headed to the Treasure Gifting Rock. Minghe had been waiting for his words and rushed out as soon as Hongjun said it.
Hongjun gifted nothing to him, but there were many treasures on the Treasure Gifting Rock. He should snatch some. In fact, Minghe was very jealous of the treasures of the Three Pure Ones, Goddess Nvywa, Jieyin and Zhunti. Those treasures were all of the Highest Grade except for Zhunti’s Cate’s Divine Rod. Now he had to comfort himself by getting some treasures on the Treasure Gifting Rock.
