Chapter 394

Heavenly Market Yuan, Myriad Worlds City.

"Shopkeeper, why are you running a black shop!"

Two teenagers walked into a shop, looked at a slender figure in black clothes, and asked curiously.

"Where is it black? I have been opening a shop in Heavenly Market Yuan for so many years and it has always been like this. Don't talk nonsense with your eyes open. It is very difficult to run a shop."

The shopkeeper didn't look back, just stood in front of the shelf, carefully wiping a divine weapon.

One of the teenagers turned and retreated outside the shop, looked up, and walked back: "But what you wrote on the sign is 'Black Shop'!"

"The sign is the sign."

The shopkeeper carefully put the wiped divine weapon into a long box, then turned back to look at the two teenagers, and said:

"You say you are good people, are you necessarily good people?"

The two teenagers shook their heads: "Not necessarily."

"Because we are not human at all!"

"That's right."

The shopkeeper smiled: "What do the two guests need?"

"This shop has many products, divine weapons and holy artifacts, spiritual treasures and spiritual roots, pills and scriptures... everything."

"Do you have the latest 'Five-Three Secret Scroll'? The kind with answers?" one of the teenagers asked.

The shopkeeper, upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Are the two students of the Heavenly Dao Academy?"

"Shh!" Jin Peng put his finger on his lips, then released his divine sense to observe for a while, and seeing no one else entering the shop, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Shopkeeper, just pretend you haven't seen us, otherwise it will be troublesome if our academy's dean finds out."

Jin Peng looked at the shopkeeper, his eyes full of pleading: "The academic exchanges in the academy are too frequent recently, and the difficulty of various assessments has also risen linearly."

"Especially since the 'Five Academies Joint Examination Three Realms Simulation' came out, we really can't hold it anymore."

"I don't know which bastard came up with this kind of thing!"

Speaking to the back, Jin Peng had a bit of gnashing teeth, and his delicate face had a clear expression of disgust.

The so-called Five Academies Joint Examination refers to the irregular joint examination held by the top five branches of the Primordial Era in order to strengthen the educational level of each academy, besides the Heavenly Dao Academy headquarters of the Heavenly Court.

These five major branches are: Kunlun Academy, Xumi Academy, Shanhai Academy, Ghost and God Academy, and Wu Dao Academy.

Because the content and items of the Five Academies Joint Examination are extremely numerous and the requirements are extremely high, the first joint examination caused many well-known branches to be slapped in the face.

Therefore, before every joint examination thereafter, the major academies of the Primordial Three Realms would train students and organize simulation assessments.

Now, this wind of involution has been prevalent in the Three Realms for a while, making the students of the Three Realms painful and happy.

Pain is because the simulation assessment difficulty is high, and the final assessment difficulty is even higher.

Happy is that as long as you can hold on and pass the assessment, you can get rich returns.

"The latest 'Five-Three Secret Scroll' hasn't come out yet, but I have some friendship with several branch deans, and I have obtained some reference scriptures used for proposition, which I can sell to you."

"Really?" The two teenagers were overjoyed.

Have reference scriptures for proposition?

That is the content of several major sections such as cultivation theory, actual combat drills, and innovation of cultivation methods!

This works!

When the time comes, after learning, you can hang it on the Star Network to sell it, definitely not losing!

Xiang Xuanqing pointed to the scripture area, "Storage box No. 7 of the Jia character, you can go and see."

The two teenagers rushed out like arrows.

"Big brother Haotian, is this right?" Jin Peng flipped through a few pages of scriptures, and when he wanted to see more, the following pages were all blank.

Basic anti-theft means in the cultivation world, you have to pay to continue reading.

Haotian studied it carefully: "The style is still very close to the final big exam."

"Then buy it!"

Jin Peng looked at the price, "The price is okay, only one hundred thousand spiritual... one hundred thousand merit coins?!"

The teenager widened his eyes, couldn't believe it, and looked at it twice more, almost laughing with anger: "A few volumes of reference scriptures, dare to charge one hundred thousand merit coins?"

"And it has to be merit at the level of the Primordial Heavenly Dao? Why don't you go rob?!"

He turned to look at Xiang Xuanqing, glared, and said: "Black shop!"

Xiang Xuanqing took out another divine weapon.

While starting to wipe, he answered nonchalantly: "Clearly marked price, no deception to young and old, buy it or not."

Haotian was also shocked by this price.

One hundred thousand merit coins, and it's the Heavenly Dao merit of the Primordial True Realm!

If I had these one hundred thousand merit coins, I would go directly to buy the thirty ginseng fruits that matured this year in the Earth Immortal Academy and take them, or go to Supreme Jing Yao to exchange for the Undying Golden Pill, I could kill through the big assessment!

"Shopkeeper, this is too expensive!" Haotian shook his head.

Xiang Xuanqing said: "This is the final proposition reference scripture for the big joint examination, reporting this price is already very good."

"Don't complain about it being expensive, look for your own reasons more."

"Have you studied hard for so many years, are you lacking travel, and haven't taken many academy tasks? Why haven't you accumulated more merit coins?"

Jin Peng instantly broke his defense.

I am a dignified honor student of the Yin-Yang Academy, never relying on family background, although I have no merit, I have literary virtue if I have literary virtue, and martial virtue if I have martial virtue.

Can I take this anger from you?

Jin Peng considered that the shopkeeper who can open a shop in Heavenly Market Yuan is definitely not a good person, so he decisively gave up the martial virtue option and chose literary virtue—report!

"You are a black shop!"

"I'm going to report you to the Heavenly Market Yuan Market Supervision and Administration Bureau!"

"The Heavenly Realm also has laws!"

"Big brother Haotian, let's go!" So, Jin Peng pulled Haotian and was about to go out.

Just as he walked to the door, he bumped into a teenager in green clothes.

Jin Peng was stunned and asked: "Kong Xuan, why are you here?"

Kong Xuan looked at Jin Peng faintly, his gaze stayed for a moment on the position where he and Haotian were holding hands.

Afterward, he walked straight to Xiang Xuanqing, bowed and said: "Shopkeeper, the order has been delivered."

Xiang Xuanqing nodded: "Hard work, here are some more orders, hard work for you to take another trip."

He handed a jade slip to Kong Xuan, and then waved his hand.

There were streamers flying out from all major exhibition areas.

Kong Xuan opened his cuffs and collected them.

After taking the goods, Kong Xuan didn't rush to leave.

Instead, he walked toward storage box No. 7 of the Jia character, "Shopkeeper, can I buy this myself?"

Xiang Xuanqing looked at Jin Peng, then at Kong Xuan, and hooked his mouth.

"Of course you can."

"Thank you, shopkeeper."

Payment, taking goods, leaving, all in one go.

Until Kong Xuan left, Jin Peng reacted.

【Where did your brother get so much merit?】 Haotian asked.

【I don't know!】

Jin Peng hurriedly chased out.

"Brother, dear brother! Wait for me!"

Haotian looked at Jin Peng's back thoughtfully, he turned to Xiang Xuanqing and bowed, then left.

After sending off a few waves of guests, Xiang Xuanqing's small shop welcomed another distinguished guest.

He was handsome and extraordinary, with an extraordinary bearing.

He watched in the shop for a while and asked Xiang Xuanqing curiously: "Is the former emperor used to living here?"

"Used to it, what's not used to it?" Xiang Xuanqing answered leisurely.

Di Jun nodded gently.

"That's good."

After Xiang Xuanqing stepped down, he announced on the surface that he needed to retreat to impact the realm of Taiyi.

In fact, Xiang Xuanqing was still using his 【Comrade Ji Du Supreme】 vest.

It's just that he almost doesn't participate in government affairs except for internal meetings of Taiwei Yuan, and has already lived a leisurely retirement life.

Except for a few gods who know he opened a shop in Heavenly Market Yuan, other gods will be affected by the Dao Fruit even if they meet Xiang Xuanqing, ignoring Xiang Xuanqing's identity.

And after knowing that Xiang Xuanqing opened a shop here, the current Heavenly Emperor Di Jun was pleasantly surprised and a little worried.

From time to time, he came to Heavenly Market Yuan to visit Xiang Xuanqing.

One is to ask for advice.

Xiang Xuanqing is in the Heavenly Court, does Di Jun have a lot of confidence in his heart? He often comes to discuss countermeasures with him.

Second, it is mainly worried that Xiang Xuanqing will make trouble.

Before the Taiwei Heavenly Court was established, their Taiwei gods each had power.

And what is the power of Xiang Xuanqing, this 【Dark Yao Comrade Ji Du Supreme】?

Master of all sins and blessings in the world, mainly master of diseases and hardships, going against the Heavenly Dao, not showing divine light.

Following it is auspicious, going against it is ominous!

When Xiang Xuanqing was the Heavenly Emperor, he could be bright and magnificent, with sage virtue manifest.

But when he returned to being 【Dark Yao Comrade Ji Du Supreme】, he had to sit at the same table with 【Hidden Yao Luo Hou Supreme】 who masters all evils, and 【Void Yao Yuebei Supreme】 who masters all fierce killings.

"Fellow Daoist Sun, don't come to visit me if you have nothing to do, it makes me very uncomfortable."

Xiang Xuanqing said earnestly: "You haven't been the Heavenly Emperor once or twice, if you have any plans, go ahead and do it boldly, don't care too much about what I, the former emperor, am doing."

"Now, I am a virtuous minister. If the Heavenly Emperor has a decree, just summon me to a meeting."

Di Jun listened and asked with a smile: "Is it a virtuous minister, or an idle minister?"

"It's all the same."

Xiang Xuanqing turned to a storage cabinet and took out a spiritual treasure, which was a golden-skinned gourd.

"The spiritual treasure you entrusted me to modify last time has been completed." Xiang Xuanqing threw it to Di Jun casually.

"So fast?" Di Jun looked surprised.

He looked at this golden-skinned gourd. There was a ray of light in the gourd, more than three feet high. A thing appeared on it, seven inches long, with eyebrows and eyes, and two white lights in the eyes were very sharp.

"This thing is called: Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife."

"When using it, just recite the true words, 'Baby, please turn around', and the light can fly out of the gourd, which can nail the enemy's soul essence. Even if there are changes, you can't escape."

"That white light on the top, like a wind wheel turning, just one or two turns, you can cut off the enemy's head." Xiang Xuanqing introduced the power of the spiritual treasure and repeatedly told Di Jun: "This thing is very powerful, but it consumes luck, use it with caution."

"Understood, it has such power by consuming a little luck, good treasure, really good treasure!" Di Jun felt relieved when he heard there were side effects.

If there were no side effects, he wouldn't dare to accept it!

After accepting this thing, Di Jun chatted with Xiang Xuanqing for a long time.

He visited the major exhibition areas in the small shop again and again, and then he expressed his intention to leave: "Fellow Daoist, don't be absent from the next internal meeting of Taiwei Yuan."

"I have big things to announce."

Di Jun looked mysterious.

Xiang Xuanqing raised his eyebrows: "Happy event?"

Di Jun was stunned, then laughed: "Nothing can be hidden from you!"

"It seems I have to bring some gifts." Xiang Xuanqing smiled.

Di Jun waved his hand: "Our internal meeting of Taiwei Yuan is all our own people, what gifts to bring!"

Xiang Xuanqing shook his head and said: "You will know when the time comes."

Your happy event, for a certain deity, may not necessarily be a happy event.

Sent off Di Jun.

Xiang Xuanqing calculated the time, it was almost time to get off work.

Just as he was about to seal the shop, Tai Shang sent a message: "Xiang Xuanqing, did you point Haotian to me?"

"No." Xiang Xuanqing shook his head.

Tai Shang replied: "He came out of your black shop, followed Kong Xuan all the way to our Three Pure Ones shop, and didn't want to leave, saying he wanted to intern here."

"I thought it was your idea."

Xiang Xuanqing said: "If he is willing to intern, give him a chance."

"That's fine."

Tai Shang smiled: "I don't know where Hongjun found such a living treasure, with excellent aptitude and eccentric, he is a talent."

Xiang Xuanqing suddenly said: "What if I say he wasn't found by Hongjun, but is Hongjun himself?"

"..." Tai Shang had an obvious pause.

He subconsciously looked at Haotian who was working honestly in the Three Pure Ones shop, and felt inexplicably horrified.

"Are you kidding?"

"Well, of course I'm kidding." Xiang Xuanqing replied.

Tai Shang breathed a sigh of relief: "Hey, you guy, why scare people for no reason?"

"I just said that no matter how cunning Hongjun is, he wouldn't pit himself like this."

"Isn't this lowering his seniority for no reason?"

Xiang Xuanqing just smiled and didn't speak.

Before long, Master Yuchen Daojun transmitted: "The time is almost up, Hearing Fu Xi and Nv Wa, the two fellow Daoists, should also invite us to set off."

Sure enough, the next moment.

Hearing Fu Xi transmitted.

"Three fellow Daoists, how are you prepared?"

The Three Pure Ones answered: "Just waiting for you, fellow Daoist."

"Then set off together?"

"Go!"

On this day, in the chaotic void, five rays of brilliant divine light tore through the barriers of time and space almost at the same time, silently, and went against the current.

Roar!

A five-colored lion appeared on the silver-white long river, prostrate in front of Xiang Xuanqing.

"Good, good, good." Xiang Xuanqing transformed into the image of Yuan Shi Tianzun, holding a ruyi, and sat floating on the five-colored lion.

"Moo!"

"Moo!"

Two cow roars, the Green Cow and the Kui Cow arrived later.

"You cow, you are quite clever!" Tai Shang scolded with a smile, riding the Green Cow backward.

Master Yuchen Daojun also sat on the back of the Kui Cow afterward.

The three divine beasts were now on the verge of breaking through to the Great Luo Supreme.

Just in time to follow their master to rub a chance!

Hearing Fu Xi and Nv Wa, upon seeing this, asked curiously: "In the opening-heaven era, can you still bring mounts?"

"Of course you can." Tai Shang then popularized relevant knowledge to the brother and sister, indicating that they were not bringing them for the first time.

"Transforming into accessories on one's own body? Can it still be like this?" Hearing Fu Xi and Nv Wa indicated that they had learned.

So they also summoned their own juniors.

Two white lights flew out of the Shanhai World, transforming into the appearance of human heads and snake bodies.

"Seen the Master!"

The guardians of the Shanhai World, Teng She and Bai Xi, appeared at the same time.

Nv Wa nodded: "You accompany us."

The two deities were overjoyed: "Thank you, Master!"

In the long river of time and space, a small boat swayed.

Xiao Song saw the five great supremes traveling together, he rubbed his eyes and muttered to himself: "Pangu's axe!"

"These five traveling together, how lively can the Chaos Era be!"

Especially he noticed that there were many gods in the major tributaries of the long river of time and space going against time and space.

These were either the Red Dust Guests in Lady Zi Xiao Palace, or the Great Luos who had newly promoted in the past few thousand years because of the method of cutting the three corpses and the method of attaining the Dao of the Five Tais.

"This scene is familiar."

Xiao Song held the fishing hook and thought of the scene when the names of the Three Pure Ones reflected the myriad worlds.

"Sure enough, they are the fishing guys!"

"In front of them, I am like a new soldier!"

He hesitated for a moment, then threw the fishing rod to the ferryman.

"I'll go join in the fun too!"

Xiao Song excitedly transformed into a ray of five-colored light and went against time and space.

The white-clothed ferryman bent down to pick up the fishing hook, looked at the direction Xiao Song left, and shook his head: "This is the willing one taking the bait!"

Underworld.

More than ten rays of light soared into the sky.

The Yan Kings took a group of ghosts and gods to travel together.

East Sea.

Prime Minister Gui encouraged the Four Sea Dragon Kings, saying: "Children, you are the future of the Dragon Clan, rest assured and go!"

"Yes!"

Ao Guang, Ao Run, and other Dragon Kings flew away.

Boundless void, wandering Qilin Cliff.

White Tiger God Lord sent away the new hope of the ethnic group.

"Rest assured, you are the new generation of sons of luck of our clan, you will inevitably turn bad into good and meet difficulties and become auspicious."

Tiannan Phoenix Terrace.

The phoenix bird flew, soaring up.

Wutong Divine Tree looked forward eagerly: "The opening-heaven era is not that scary, look for the timing, and live well and come back."

Primordial Three Realms, Cosmic Myriad Worlds, major Heavenly Dao Academies, all had gods going to the Chaos Era.

The boundless Chaos Sea, gray, no up, down, left, right, no past, future, only eternal chaos and disorder.

However, in this seemingly eternal unchanging chaotic picture, there is an eternal unchanging "singularity".

A "origin" of all time and space, is the initial germination place of all things from "nothing" to "being" in the Primordial Era.

There, it is the legendary birthplace of the Great God Pangu.

"Thirty-six-rank Green Lotus, how many times has this been?"

When the Three Pure Ones successfully crossed the origin of time and space by relying on their profound understanding of the Great Dao of time and space and their incomparably strong cultivation, they successfully returned to the place they were familiar with.

This time, it was smoother than the last time.

"At least didn't get struck!"

The Three Pure Ones returned to the Chaos Green Lotus, and an indescribable sense of intimacy and destiny, as if returning to the mother's body, instantly shrouded their hearts and minds.

They had already obtained the identity of Pangu's soul essence, and had the most direct and profound origin connection with this Chaos Green Lotus.

Almost the moment their figures manifested at this origin of time and space.

This thirty-six-rank Chaos Green Lotus, which seemed to have existed since ancient times, but was still in bud and exuding endless creation aura, began to tremble violently as if it had received some mysterious call.

Ten thousand rays of rosy light sprayed out from the green lotus, illuminating the surrounding billions of miles of chaos.

Endless clear Qi surged like a tide, forming a huge energy vortex, rolling the figures of the Three Pure Ones, Hearing Fu Xi, and Nv Wa into it without explanation.

Unlike the last time they were passively and collectively integrated into the green lotus and transformed into Pangu's soul essence.

This time, when they entered this supreme mother womb that gestated all things in the universe again, the situation underwent a subtle and profound change.

Perhaps it was because they came this time with a clear goal of "attaining the Dao of Taiyi".

Perhaps it was because their respective Great Dao cultivation had made more significant progress and clearer self-cognition compared to the last time.

Or perhaps, it was the Pangu will in the dark, deliberately guiding a brand-new evolution.

In short, when their divine souls merged with the origin of the Chaos Green Lotus again, they did not merge into one as they did last time, but each occupied a vast, yet independent "chaotic space" inside the green lotus.

In this chaotic space, they were no longer in the form of complete innate gods, but directly transformed into a more primordial, more abstract, and more powerful "Innate Dao Spirit"!

More wonderfully, the Dao spirits they transformed into actually corresponded perfectly to the five key realms of the "Great Luo Method of the Five Tais" that Xiang Xuanqing had previously expounded in Lady Zi Xiao Palace—Taiyi, Taichu, Taishi, Taisu, and Taiji!

"Coming to Chaos every time, it's different every time!"

Xiang Xuanqing sighed: "Great God Pangu, you are still the one who knows how to play!"
