After obtaining the Yellow Middle Plum, River Styx continued walking towards the depths of Mount Buzhou. The deeper he went, the greater the pressure from the aura of Mount Buzhou. River Styx's body was constantly tempered by the pressure. Almost every step he took made River Styx's body stronger.
The deeper he went, the higher the mountain became. Now River Styx was already halfway up Mount Buzhou. In addition to the strong pressure, there were also fierce gales blowing around. If an ordinary Taiyi Golden Immortal resisted the gales with his body like River Styx, he would have been covered with bruises.
River Styx was the opposite. Although the gales were strong, they could also be used as a weapon to temper the body. When River Styx was first attacked by the gales, there were still some marks left on his body. Some strong gales could even cause injuries. But now, River Styx had completely adapted to the gales. The sharp gales could no longer leave any marks on River Styx's body.
Although River Styx had adapted to the gales, he did not intend to continue walking towards the top of the mountain for the time being. Not to mention that the gales were even stronger at the top, there were even gales as strong as the Samadhi Wind. However, River Styx had not explored the entire mountainside. What if he missed out on some treasures? He did not believe that the Yellow Middle Plum was the only good thing on Mount Buzhou.
After walking for a long time, River Styx still did not find anything. This made him a little depressed. Even if there were no other Lingbao, why was there not even the Innate Spiritual Root, the Gourd Vine and the Banana Tree? According to legend, these two Spiritual Roots grew on Mount Buzhou!
River Styx had already explored more than half of Mount Buzhou, but he had yet to see these two types of Spirit Roots. These two types of Spirit Roots were extremely extraordinary. The calabashes produced by the calabash vine were all extraordinary. In the legends, several powerful calabashes originated from this calabash vine, such as Taishang Laojun's Purple Gold Calabash, Lu Ya's Demon Slaying Flying Knife, Nüwa's Demon Summoning Banner, and Hongyun's Ninety-Nine Soul-Dispersing Calabash. These four calabashes originated from this vine, but the other calabashes were nowhere to be found.
The Innate Spiritual Root, the Banana Tree, also had a great history. According to legend, there were three fans growing on the tree. One was the Wind and Fire Palm-Leaf Fan of the Heavenly Supreme Elder, and the other two were the Banana Tree of Princess Iron Fan in the story of the Journey to the West. One fanned the wind, and the other fanned the rain.
After searching for a long time, he still could not find these two types of Spirit Roots. Presumably, it was not the time for them to be born. Just when River Styx was feeling vexed, two waves of throbbing suddenly came from his Vital Spirit. River Styx checked carefully and found that the two waves of throbbing came from the Red Lotus of Fire and the five percent of the Merit of Creation.
River Styx looked around. What exactly caused the chain reaction? Was it a warning? Or was there something that attracted them? He scanned with his Divine Sense and did not find anything unusual nearby. It should not be a warning. Then, there must be something that attracted the Red Lotus of Fire and the five percent of the Merit of Creation.
Since he could not find them, River Styx decided not to look for them himself. Instead, he followed the directions of the Red Lotus of Fire and the Merit of Creation. After making many turns, River Styx suddenly found himself in a valley of Mount Buzhou.
The valley was very ordinary and there was nothing unusual about it. River Styx was stunned. The Red Lotus of Fire was his lifelong magic treasure and he had already completely refined it. As for the Merit of Creation, he had obtained it by opening the Heavens. The two of them had never caused such a throbbing before. Now, they had led him here. Why?
Could there be something strange about this valley? River Styx immediately scanned the valley with his Divine Sense. "Eh!" River Styx's face immediately revealed a strange expression. He wanted to use his Divine Sense to check what was going on, but it was absorbed by the valley. He could not find out what was inside at all.
It seemed that there was a great formation guarding this place, and it was definitely not an ordinary one. Suddenly, River Styx felt that the throbbing of the Merit of Creation was getting more and more intense. Could it be that they wanted him to enter the valley? But what about this great formation? It would be troublesome if he was trapped inside.
However, it was also strange. Although the great formation was strange, River Styx did not sense any danger. At River Styx's level of cultivation, if he were to encounter any danger, he would always sense it in his heart. This was the so-called Heaven's Perception, the Tendo's warning.
Since he did not sense any danger, River Styx could only believe in the Red Lotus of Fire and the Merit of Creation. Even if something unexpected happened after he entered the great formation, with his cultivation and magic treasures, it should not be a problem for him to stay alive. River Styx took a step forward and plunged into the formation, disappearing without a trace. The valley was still peaceful, as if no one had been here at all.
After entering the array, Minghe saw a flash of white light in front of him, and he was already in a peach forest. Eh? River Styx found that he was not trapped in the great formation. Instead, he had passed through the great formation and arrived at the inner part of the great formation's protection. This made him a little confused. Strange things happened every year. This year, it was his turn.
Without thinking too much, River Styx was already attracted by the things in front of him. A green lotus, a pool of milky white liquid, and a small piece of broken jade butterfly. None of them were ordinary things, and each of them was enough to trigger a large-scale battle of the Great Desolation. River Styx never expected that the Red Lotus of Fire and the Merit of Creation would lead him to such a treasure land.
"Good fortune, good fortune!" River Styx murmured excitedly. He was almost drooling. It was not that he had lost his composure. It was just that these three things were too big for him. River Styx finally figured out why the Red Lotus of Fire and the Merit of Creation would react.
The green lotus was called the twelfth-grade Green Lotus of Creation. It was a top-grade Primordial Lingbao with unparalleled defense. It came from the same source as the Red Lotus of Fire, the Black Lotus of Destruction, and the Golden Lotus of Merit. When the sky was created, the four lotus seeds of the Chaotic Green Lotus, the ultimate treasure of Chaos, combined with the essence of the Chaotic Green Lotus. The Red Lotus of Fire must have sensed the existence of the Green Lotus of Creation and led River Styx here.
The pool of milky white liquid was also extraordinary. It was the Chalcedony of Pangu, which was formed from his bone marrow after his death. It had the effect of stealing the Creation of Heaven and Earth. River Styx believed that as long as he consumed the Chalcedony of Pangu, his body would undergo an earth-shaking transformation. By then, his physical strength would be no weaker than Zu Wu's.
As for the small piece of broken Jade Butterfly, although it looked inconspicuous and small, you must have heard of it before. It was the Jade Butterfly of Creation. It was said that there were 3,000 Great Ways recorded on it. After the sky was created, the Jade Butterfly of Creation was damaged. The larger piece was obtained by Hongjun, while the smaller pieces were lost in the Great Desolation.
With the treasures before him, River Styx hesitated. He was guided here by the Red Karmic Fire Lotus and the Merit of Creation. When he was in front of the formation outside the valley, the Red Karmic Fire Lotus did not react, but the Merit of Creation fluctuated abnormally. Clearly, the Merit of Creation was the key to entering this place.
These three items were all related to Pangu. When the two were linked together, River Styx could not help but think carefully. This place was obviously set up by Pangu before his death. These items were also left behind for the descendants of Pangu, who had the Merit of Creation.
Other than River Styx who had half of the Merit of Creation, the only ones in the Great Desolation who still had the Merit of Creation were Sanqing and the Twelve Zu Wu. They were the true descendants of Pangu. Although River Styx was slightly related to Pangu and had half of the Merit of Creation, he was far from being the true descendants of Pangu. These items were either left for Sanqing or the Twelve Zu Wu.
According to River Styx's deduction, these three items were most likely left for Sanqing. According to the legends, the twelfth-grade Green Lotus of Creation would be split into three in the future and would be obtained by Sanqing. The red flower, the white lotus root, and the green lotus leaf. The three religions were originally one family. Pangu must have divined the Heavenly Secrets before his death and wanted to remind the three of them. Unfortunately, Sanqing did not realize it. During the War of Investiture of the Gods, the three religions fought until both sides suffered great losses and benefited the West.
Since Pangu had left these items for Sanqing, River Styx did not dare to rashly take these three items. If he were to form a karma with Sanqing, it would not be a good thing. After all, Sanqing represented the three future Sages. It would not be easy to repay the karma owed to them.
However, River Styx was not willing to leave empty-handed after seeing such treasures. It was not easy for him to come here, which meant that he had some fate with this place. Furthermore, he was somewhat related to Pangu and also had this half of the Merit of Splitting Heaven. Why should he not have a share of these items?
If he were to take all of them, he might form a karma with Sanqing. What about taking a portion of them? After making up his mind, River Styx activated the Merit of Splitting Heaven in his Primordial Spirit and prayed to the heavens, "Great God Pangu, I am River Styx. Due to the guidance of the Merit of Splitting Heaven, I came to this place unintentionally. If I am fated with the treasure fish, I will take it. If not, I will leave."
As soon as River Styx finished speaking, the three treasures reacted. First, all the Pangu Chalcedony flew into River Styx's body. Then, the Creation Jade Butterfly shot out a silver light and entered between River Styx's eyebrows. Finally, three green lotus seeds flew out of the Creation Green Lotus and stopped in front of River Styx.
River Styx immediately smiled when he saw this. Although he did not get all of them, he had already gained a lot. All the Pangu Chalcedony was enough for River Styx's physical body and Primordial Spirit to break through to the Daluo Jinxian. The silver light that the Creation Jade Butterfly shot out contained the three paths of elixir, weapon, and formation. These were also the three paths that Sanqing would be good at in the future. River Styx did not expect to get all of them.
The three green lotus seeds even contained part of the origin of the Creation Green Lotus. With these three green lotus seeds, River Styx could cultivate three Level Nine Green Lotuses of Creation. River Styx's Red Lotus of Fire had already produced several red lotus seeds. However, after cultivating them, River Styx realized that only the first three seeds could be cultivated into Level Nine Red Lotus of Fire. The rest would be Level Six, Level Three, and the last lotus seeds could only be used to refine elixirs.
River Styx had cultivated a total of three Level Nine Red Lotuses of Fire, five Level Six Red Lotuses of Fire, and seven Level Three Red Lotuses of Fire. The Level Nine Red Lotus of Fire was an Upper Grade Innate Lingbao, the Level Six Red Lotus of Fire was an Intermediate Grade Innate Lingbao, and the Level Three Red Lotus of Fire was an Inferior Grade Innate Lingbao.
The Level Twelve Green Lotus of Creation was the most heaven-defying of the four lotuses. If it could merge with the other three lotuses, it was very likely to restore the Chaos Green Lotus. Although it would not be as good as the original Chaos Green Lotus, it would definitely belong to the Chaos Lingbao. Tendo would definitely not allow such a thing to happen. Therefore, it was destined that the Green Lotus of Creation would split into three Sanqing.
