The Hundred Flowers Fairy then proceeded to recount in detail how she obtained that treasure. She

It was nothing more than accidentally receiving news of some ancient ruin, and finally following the clues, she entered this ancient ruin.

However, she was not the only one who entered this ancient ruin; there were many other cultivators and immortals, and in the end, they were tracked down by the cultivators of the Tiantai Dao lineage, entangled all the way.

At this moment, the Hundred Flowers Fairy's beautiful eyes carried a hint of chill, and what followed was known to both of them.

"That treasure is this one!"

At this moment, she raised one hand, only to see a small jade box appear before Zhang Jian's eyes.

The jade box opened, and a burst of five-colored light shot out instantly, the intense primordial five-element Great Dao resonance surging into the heavens, immediately stirring the deep void and causing the fundamental material basis of all things to tremble,

Zhang Jian's eyes also showed some ripples. He

Such a magnificent heavenly and earthly spectacle, extraordinarily vast.

Fortunately, there were spatial barriers around the Immortal Pavilion; otherwise, it would likely have drawn the gaze of all in Baidi City above and below.

Undoubtedly, what lay before them should be a heaven-and-earth rare treasure of divine object grade.

It was probably not inferior to the various heaven-and-earth rare treasures he had obtained through sacrifice.

"What is this?"

Zhang Jian already had a guess in his heart.

"This is the Primordial Five Elements Source Stone, formed when the primordial five-element material basis of heaven and earth first coalesced; in ancient mythology, when the goddess Nüwa mended the heavens, the main material used to forge the five-colored divine stones was precisely this Primordial Five Elements Source Stone!" He

A hint of admiration appeared in the depths of the Hundred Flowers Fairy's eyes.

Being able to obtain this supreme treasure, even she herself found it unbelievable.

She then said: "This object is extraordinarily marvelous; it can be directly accommodated by immortals and gods who walk the Five Elements Great Dao, improving their constitution, even directly reversing the primordial to achieve the body of a primordial god, and it can also serve as the primary material for refining postnatal spiritual treasures, or be directly integrated into the body of an immortal or god to complete their foundation!"

After a slight pause, the Hundred Flowers Fairy looked toward Zhang Jian and said.

"Your Majesty, however, the most important aspect is still being able to integrate into the depths of heaven and earth, to supplement the foundation of heaven and earth; if used properly, the benefits obtained will only be greater than integrating it into oneself!"

Zhang Jian's eyes underwent a slight change.

As he himself is a primordial god, the allure of this object to him is only so great, but one can imagine that if other immortals and gods heard of this object's existence, they would surely go mad. He

Primordial gods draw near.

Moreover, it can directly enhance one's five-element authority, and at the very least reduce hundreds of thousands of years of arduous cultivation.

Hundreds of thousands of years of arduous cultivation.

A single heaven-and-earth rare treasure can reduce such a long period of cultivation; whoever it is would be greedy.

Zhang Jian naturally also felt moved.

Although he does not walk the Five Elements Great Dao, if he could absorb and refine it using the Map of Mountains and Rivers, it could also greatly enhance the foundation of the Map of Mountains and Rivers.

Yet he saw the Hundred Flowers Fairy at this moment, yet see the jade box push forward toward Zhang Jian's front. He

"Your Majesty, I entrust this object to you!"

"Entrust it to this lord?"

Zhang Jian was startled; the Hundred Flowers Fairy's gesture surprised him.

The Hundred Flowers Fairy glanced at Zhang Jian with her clear eyes, then spoke softly.

"It can also be considered as this immortal returning a peach for a plum, repaying Your Majesty's kindness!"

Her words carried a double meaning.

Zhang Jian merely thought the Hundred Flowers Fairy was repaying the kindness of his enlightenment to the Dao, and could not help but say. He

"Fairy, there is no need for such courtesy; a gentleman does not take what others cherish, let alone when this object concerns the ascension of the Donghua Realm!"

Seeing Zhang Jian maintain his composure even before such a supreme treasure, the Hundred Flowers Fairy's eyes also showed a hint of renewed respect.

She actually did not know that Zhang Jian's heart was moved, but his mouth had already been spoiled by the Qingxia Dao Lord; such a heaven-and-earth rare treasure, though precious, was still not enough to make him lose composure.

The Hundred Flowers Fairy, however, had other thoughts.

She hoped to use this matter to settle the karmic debt between them.

Such karmic debt is not good to owe; the strong can owe the weak.

But if the weak owes the strong, it becomes very dangerous. He

Although the Spiritual Source Emperor Lord before them does not seem like one of the 'extremely wicked and vicious' types, the sooner the debt is repaid, the better.

The Hundred Flowers Fairy thought for a moment and then smiled charmingly.

"If Your Majesty truly feels uneasy, then simply accept this object and, on your behalf, investigate the mystery of the Donghua Realm's ascension; if you can actively participate, bring this immortal along?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian pondered slightly, then immediately did not refuse further.

If he could participate in this matter through this, it would naturally be the best.

As for sharing a cup of broth with the Hundred Flowers Fairy, it is merely a trifle.

He then took the Primordial Five Elements Source Stone condensed from the source. He

Zhang Jian examined it carefully; it emitted a soft five-colored light all over, appearing in the jade box only the size of a pigeon's egg, but in reality, it had been miniaturized and sealed using the method of the Mustard Seed Ring; its true form was probably even larger than an ordinary mountain.

Zhang Jian carefully observed it a few more times, then stored it into the Map of Mountains and Rivers.

At the same time, Zhang Jian again asked the Hundred Flowers Fairy if she knew the specific details of the Donghua Realm's ascension; the Hundred Flowers Fairy, however, knew little, only knowing that this plan was extraordinarily vast, rumored to be overseen by an ancient Dao Lord, and completed upon its fulfillment.

Which Dao Lord is called the Pure Yang Dao Lord.

Tens of thousands of years ago, this Pure Yang Dao Lord issued a proclamation seeking various heaven-and-earth rare treasures.

Among them was the Primordial Five Elements Source Stone.

If the treasure could be offered, one would surely gain the favor of an ancient Dao Lord. He

Therefore, the Hundred Flowers Fairy believed these primordial treasures might be related to the Donghua Realm's ascension.

"It seems we still need to proactively contact the various patriarchs of the One Two Three Heavenly Realms, or perhaps the Qingxia Dao Lord!"

Zhang Jian secretly mused in his heart, he leaned toward the former.

As a core member of the Three Sovereigns Celestial Realm's Three Sovereigns and Five Elders Assembly, he would certainly have news on this matter.

After all, the ascension of the Donghua Realm is no small affair.

He is still a formal member of the Three Sovereigns and Five Elders Assembly.

With the Three Sovereigns and Five Elders Assembly as his backing, joining in to get a share should not be difficult! Zhang Jian

pondered in his heart.

Whether it is difficult or not, he still needs to communicate with the Three Sovereigns Celestial Realm first before making plans.

Moreover, having completed the main task, he also needs to report to Daoist Qingxia and ask Daoist Qingxia for a delay in returning to the Heavenly Court.

Zhang Jian immediately borrowed the celestial pavilion of the Hundred Flowers Immortal Maiden to set up a dharma altar here, and through it communicated with the Tongshan Dao Lineage's various second-generation ancestral masters, even up to the Ancestral Master King Yu.

……

Three Sovereigns Celestial Realm

The Huoyun Cave Heaven stands like a colossal entity at the center of heaven and earth, firmly holding sway over the Three Sovereigns Celestial Realm.

Beneath the Huoyun Cave Heaven lies the Three Sovereigns City.

The Tongshan Dao Lineage is not far from the Huoyun Cave Heaven.

It is a magnificent divine mountain standing upon the boundless marsh.

Its layout is not much different from that of the Zhou Shan Realm.

However, the mountain essence nurtured within the Three Sovereigns Realm far surpasses that of the Zhou Shan Realm, magnificent and vast.

Near the Tongshan Dao Lineage, there also stands a magnificent immortal city.

It is called the Tongshan Immortal City.

Its scale is second only to a few other great Holy Emperor Immortal Cities besides the Three Sovereigns City.

Among the countless great immortal cities of the Three Sovereigns Celestial Realm, it also ranks within the top ten.

Elder Fa has been stationed in the Tongshan Immortal City all this time, receiving news transmitted from the disciples of the Tongshan Dao Lineage, and immediately sent out the information, actively inquiring for Zhang Jian.

Zhang Jian's thought was not wrong; given the vast divine powers of the Tongshan Dao Lineage, they indeed have some understanding of the ascension of the Donghua Realm.

Elder Fa also sent a message to the Water Official Emperor, Tianhe True Person.

Tianhe True Person then used the influence of the Three Sovereigns Emperor to enter the secluded dao lineages of several daoists, and shortly afterward gave Elder Fa a rather affirmative reply.

Tianhe True Person then entered the Three Sovereigns Celestial Realm again, going to meet King Yu.

"Master, it seems A Yu is very interested in the ascension of the Donghua Realm, and I believe this is also an opportunity!"

"However, the ascension has already been pre-arranged by those few daoists; if one wishes to join, relying solely on my disciple's influence, it would probably be difficult!"

In the Hall of Supreme Virtue, King Yu and the Qingqiu Lady Mother sit in the upper seats, their expressions falling upon Tianhe True Person, with faint peculiar smiles in their eyes.

This time, it is not only Zhang Jian who is interested; this third disciple of theirs who sits down probably also has his mind set on it.

Tianhe True Person has already cultivated for a very long time.

He has been stuck at the Great Perfection of Taiyi for several derivation eras, and now he should also feel that he lacks a powerful opportunity to push forward, to impact the Daoist realm.

For this, they naturally support him wholeheartedly.

This derivation era has just begun, and the fate energy is still unusually abundant, with many quotas still available for Daoists.

The Three Sovereigns Celestial Realm and the Central Celestial Realm both have quotas.

With the foundation of the Tongshan Dao Lineage, contending for one or two poses no problem.

Of course, not only Tianhe True Person, but Zhang Jian himself has already reached the cultivation of a Taiyi Heavenly Immortal; if he can participate in such a great affair, it would also greatly help in solidifying his foundation.

Upon the imperial throne, King Yu spoke in a deep voice.

"Chu Fa has already informed this seat; A Yu fortuitously obtained the innate five-element source stone, which is an opportunity, for that innate five-element source stone can provide tremendous support for the ascension of the Donghua Realm!"

"As for saying to enter the affair, this is indeed difficult!"

King Yu slightly straightened his posture.

The ascension of the Donghua Realm is mainly driven by the Pure Yang Daoists of the Taiqing Heaven lineage.

The relationship between that Pure Yang Daoist and the Donghua Realm is extremely close, almost equivalent to the Creator Sovereign.

Most importantly, the Taiqing Heaven lineage is not lacking in strong supporters.

If one wishes to participate in this great affair, it would undoubtedly be like snatching food from a tiger's mouth.

The total merit and fate energy are only so much; each portion seized is equivalent to reducing another's share, so how would other daoists be willing?

However, if this affair could allow the Tongshan Dao Lineage to gain the opportunity to have one or two more Daoists in the future, King Yu would not easily give up.

"I will discuss this with the Heavenly Emperor!"

Upon hearing this, Tianhe True Person's eyes brightened.

Among the Three Sovereigns, Heavenly Emperor Fuxi, crowned with wisdom above heaven and earth, if one could consult him, then indeed there would be hope to participate.

"Disciple thanks the master!"

He then performed the great ritual and bowed to King Yu.

He knows that Heavenly Emperor Fuxi is not so easily seen, and for King Yu, this probably also requires making a great sacrifice.

King Yu descended from the imperial throne, casually lifted Tianhe True Person up, and laughed.

"This matter may not necessarily succeed; the daoists of the Taiqing Heaven lineage are not easy to deal with, so everything must wait until after meeting the Holy Emperor!"

……

In the White Emperor City, Zhang Jian has already received the preliminary reply from Elder Fa, but upon receiving the news, Zhang Jian's expression became slightly solemn.

Elder Fa, however, briefly explained to him the complexity of this matter.

The ascension of the Donghua Realm has actually been ongoing for a long time, but no action was seen until tens of thousands of years ago, when the Pure Yang Daoist issued an announcement to purchase heavenly and earthly treasures, and many who appeared then realized that the Pure Yang Daoist and others were serious.

However, regarding the announcement issued by the Pure Yang Daoist, the response from many immortals and gods was quite complex.

On one hand, heavenly and earthly treasures are extraordinarily precious, usually priceless and without a market, and no one would willingly take them out lightly to exchange.

Another reason is that many major powers may not necessarily be willing to see Pure Yang Daoist Lord smoothly elevate the Donghua Realm.

This would shake the heavens and void, even the pattern of the celestial realm's dimensions.

If not for close kin, who would willingly see someone gradually climb onto their own head?

And among them, those with hidden intentions to sabotage are even more numerous.

However, Pure Yang Daoist Lord is not without backing; he has support behind him.

That is the Taiqing Tian lineage.

The Taiqing Tian lineage can be traced back to a group of ancient immortals and deities from remote antiquity, although those myths no longer exist, perhaps due to changes in the cosmic order, the myths have vanished, yet no one can afford to underestimate them.

Especially since their own power is not weak.

In the celestial realm's dimensions, the Taiqing Tian realm ranks among the top ten.

Relying on the power of the Taiqing Tian realm, Pure Yang Daoist Lord's layout gradually becomes complete.

Precisely because of this completeness, if they were to intervene, the difficulty would increase significantly.

"It seems this good fortune may not necessarily come to pass!"

Zhang Jian secretly mused in his heart.

In a foreign land, if he were the other party, when a plan is nearing completion, he would not easily allow others to casually join in, lest unexpected complications arise.

On the other hand, Qingxia Daoist Lord gave a clear response, agreeing to his request to delay returning to the celestial realm, and his attitude was unusually straightforward.

In Baidi Immortal City, Zhang Jian continued waiting for news from the celestial realm's ancestral master.

Zhang Jian and Baihua Xianzi were strolling within this immortal city.

Zhang Jian was seeing such a foreign race for the first time, an immortal city filled with divine and demonic races.

The local customs and sentiments differed greatly from other regions.

Within, Zhang Jian also saw many shops selling spiritual medicines and heavenly-earth divine materials, among which were not a few towering divine and demonic race cultivators undergoing relocation.

Among them were the Jingling Shen clan, as well as the Longbo Giants and other races from mythology.

There were also the Xiaoren clan, each tiny and exquisite, yet possessing spiritual power on their bodies, diligently wiping the floors, or perhaps tending to the strange flowers and exotic plants in nearby shops.

As for those possessing dragon blood, phoenix blood, or even other exotic bloodlines, existing in human form as cultivators, and even immortal deities, their numbers were even greater.

Zhang Jian's gaze also swept over these shops, observing numerous heavenly treasures and earthly riches, many of which he himself found quite interesting.

Baihua Xianzi stood beside him, at this moment she directly manifested her true form, unafraid of other immortals and deities coveting her.

Her immortal form naturally drew the attention of many powerful beings.

Among immortals and deities, beautiful female immortals are extremely numerous; only a few, due to issues with their Dao-heart, might manifest as middle-aged or elderly.

But those with Baihua Xianzi's demeanor and Dao rhythm are rare.

Especially as Baihua Xianzi's Hundred Flowers authority gradually returns.

Seeing this, Zhang Jian couldn't help but tease.

"Baihua Daoist friend, you really aren't afraid of causing trouble for us?"

Baihua Xianzi, seeing this, smiled faintly and said.

"Does the Emperor fear trouble?"

Zhang Jian smiled upon hearing this, and at that moment he suddenly felt a stirring in his heart, the infinite river diagram deep between his brows twitched slightly, evolving within into a magnificent scene.

He looked at Baihua Xianzi with a smile and said.

"Daoist friend, let's change locations and go watch some lively spectacle!"

Baihua Xianzi couldn't help but feel slightly surprised, her eyes, which usually spoke, turned toward him.
