The group of master and disciples left Kunlun, riding the clouds and mist, and flew straight towards Buyoukongfang Mountain.
On this day, as they passed by a majestic and precipitous sacred mountain, a radiant glow suddenly shone from the mountain, and auspicious light illuminated the sky.
"Hmm? Could it be that a primordial spiritual treasure is about to be born in the mountains?"
After Guan Kong stopped the auspicious clouds, he stood on the clouds and looked towards the mountains.
"Guan Kong'er, do you know what this mountain is called?" Hu Le asked.
Guan Kong examined it for a while and replied, "I remember it's called Wuyi Mountain."
"It's actually this mountain!"
Could it be that the innate spiritual treasure that has appeared at this moment is that one?!
Hu Le silently calculated in his mind, and in the blink of an eye, he saw through the secret of heaven, confirming what he had thought.
"Teacher, why don't we go over there and let a few of our junior brothers try their luck?" Guan Kong suggested.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Huang and the others all looked expectantly at their teacher.
Besides Jiaoyue, Hu Le had distributed quite a few innate spiritual treasures to them.
They did not lack spiritual treasures at this time.
Even the poorest among them, Jiaoyue, possessed a primordial spiritual treasure called the Bright Moon Hairpin.
Therefore, they don't actually covet the innate spiritual treasure in the mountain; their desire to go there now is merely driven by curiosity.
"Alright!"
Hu Le nodded in agreement.
Then, the master and his disciples descended from the auspicious clouds and arrived in the mountains.
The scenery of Wuyi Mountain is indeed magnificent, with thousands of peaks vying for beauty, the entire mountain covered in greenery, and the misty atmosphere drifting through the mountains, making the scenery appear hazy and indistinct.
The master and his disciples entered the mountains, where waterfalls and springs could be seen everywhere, pine and cypress forests were everywhere, and flowers were like brocade. From time to time, strange birds and beasts could be seen moving among the mountains and forests.
After traversing several mountain peaks, they finally arrived at the valley where Lingbao was born.
The valley is covered with green grass and wildflowers, and in the center of the valley stands a pine tree that is a hundred feet tall.
The ground beneath the tree is littered with jagged rocks and entwined with vines.
Thorns and shrubs grow among the rocks...
Beneath the canopy of the pine tree, two orbs of light hung, one displaying seven colors and the other shimmering with five colors.
Within each of the two clusters of light was a golden copper coin, round on the outside and square on the inside, with two wings growing from its edge, making it look strange.
"Huh? They're actually a pair of innate spiritual treasures? And they're exactly the same? Could there be some story behind this?" Yuan Huang asked in surprise when she saw the two coin-shaped spiritual treasures.
"We'll know the truth once we take it down and examine it,"
Although Jiaoyue was the youngest, she was also a woman of action. She leaped into the air and reached for the two copper coins.
The two copper coins seemed to possess some kind of sentience, trying to dodge, but being ownerless, they could not escape the grasp of the bright moon.
"Hmph! How could you possibly escape!"
When Jiaoyue missed her grab, she immediately summoned a large hand of primordial energy, enveloping the two spiritual treasures within it.
They tried to dodge, but could not escape the grasp of the large hand, and were eventually held tightly by it.
After acquiring the two magical treasures, she returned.
"Teacher, what do you think of this treasure?"
She grabbed the copper coin and handed it to Hu Le on the ox's back.
Hu Le reached out and took the two copper coins. Seeing that they were still trying to fly away, he exerted a little force with his fingers, and the auspicious light and aura surrounding the magical treasure vanished instantly, and they finally calmed down.
He scanned the spiritual treasures with his divine sense and immediately understood their origins.
Just as he had predicted, this treasure, called the Falling Treasure Coin, was a rather mysterious innate spiritual treasure.
In later generations, the Luobao Golden Coin made a brief appearance in the Investiture of the Gods, and made a significant contribution to the Western Zhou's conquest of the Shang Dynasty.
This treasure was originally in the hands of two rogue cultivators named Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao.
While they were playing chess in the Wuyi Mountains, they happened to encounter Zhao Gongming chasing after the Taoist Ran Deng.
The two, misled by the Taoist Ran Deng, stepped forward to confront Zhao Gongming.
Zhao Gongming used the Dragon Binding Rope and the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl to attack the two men, but they were both knocked down by the Treasure-Dropping Coins.
The Dragon-Binding Rope was nothing special; the key was the twenty-four Sea-Stabilizing Pearls, which were top-grade innate spiritual treasures.
After obtaining this treasure, Zhao Gongming was invincible with it. All the disciples of the Chan Sect were defeated and fled in disarray. Even Daoist Ran Deng was no match for him.
As a result, once the Treasure-Dropping Coin was used, it easily snatched the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl from Zhao Gongming's hands.
However, neither of them ended up with a good outcome.
Not only were the collected Dinghai Pearls stolen by Daoist Ran Deng, but one of them died under Zhao Gongming's whip, and the remaining one was used as a sacrifice by the Chan Sect and sent into the Ten Deadly Formations.
Like Zhao Gongming, the two were listed on the Investiture of the Gods after their deaths.
Later, the Chan Sect also acted inhumanely. Zhao Gongming died because of Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao, but Jiang Ziya still appointed the two of them as subordinates of Zhao Gongming.
Their future is pretty much a certainty...
This Treasure-Dropping Coin can drop any spiritual treasure except for innate supreme treasures, of course, weapons. Even so, it is still extremely remarkable.
However, this treasure also has significant drawbacks when used.
The Falling Treasure Coin and the Falling Man Spiritual Treasure may seem simple, but it is actually the Great Dao contained within the Falling Treasure Coin that is causing the trouble.
The Great Dao in Lingbao is called the Dao of Trade.
A transaction, of course, involves give and take.
Even in the simplest form of mortal trade, it's just one item for another.
When the Treasure-Dropping Coin drops a spiritual treasure, the owner of the spiritual treasure must also give something of equal value, whether it be their own merit or destiny.
When Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao used the Treasure-Dropping Coin, they paid with their own merits and destiny.
However, they were merely ordinary people, how much merit and fortune could they possibly have that was equivalent to the value of the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl?
Therefore, after they used this treasure to seize Zhao Gongming's Dinghai Pearl, not only were their life force and merit completely exhausted, but they also owed Heaven a great debt.
This is also why they ultimately perished in the Investiture of the Gods.
As for the drawbacks of the Fallen Treasure Coins, they, as the owners of the spiritual treasures, are probably not unaware of them.
Perhaps because he had no hope of attaining immortality in this life, he deliberately entered the great calamity to seek an opportunity to be listed on the Investiture of the Gods.
However, they probably never expected that the Chan Sect would act so unscrupulously, actually placing them under the command of their greatest enemy.
Of course, it's also possible that the Chan Sect has other plans...
After Hu Le figured out the origin of one of the treasure coins, he was certain that it was the same one that Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao had in later generations.
But what about this extra one?
He remembered that Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao only had one.
He immediately focused his spiritual energy on another precious coin and quickly ascertained its origins.
It turns out that two treasure-dropping coins were nurtured in Wuyi Mountain, one male and one female, with the female coin specifically used to drop magical treasures into the world.
While the other coin does not have the same effect, it can accumulate merit and energy to restrain the mother coin.
The mother coin can drop all the world's treasures, but it cannot drop the public coin; in fact, it may drop the public coin instead.
This is a typical example of using brine to curdle tofu; one thing can subdue another.
After Hu Le figured out the wonderful uses of the two magical treasures, he lost some interest in them.
Although the mother coin was good, it couldn't become a supreme innate treasure, so it was useless to him.
When faced with ordinary innate spiritual treasures, the Treasure-Dropping Coin can knock them down, and he can also sweep them away after using the Innate Five-Colored Divine Light.
Moreover, using the innate five-colored divine light does not require paying any price.
Isn't this much more useful than the Treasure Drop Coin...?
