Hu Le caught a glimpse of the uncontrollable excitement on the face of the Treasure-Offering Heavenly Lord and pushed the plate of immortal dates in front of him towards him.
"Here, this thing is useless to me now, you can take it and use it."
"Thank you very much, elder brother."
When the Treasure-Offering Heavenly Lord heard Hu Le's words, he felt a pang of hurt for some reason, but he still pretended to be happy and accepted them.
At this moment, Duobao spoke up to stop him, saying, "Brother, there's no need for that. Although this jujube is wondrous, consuming too much of it will be useless."
The smile on the Heavenly Lord of Treasures' face froze instantly. He looked at Duobao and asked, "What do you mean by that, Second Brother?"
Duobao naturally understood the Heavenly Lord of Treasures's dilemma, but he still continued, "This is the first jujube tree in the world when the primordial chaos was created. It blossoms once every five thousand years, bears fruit once every five thousand years, and takes another five thousand years to mature."
Later, it was obtained by my three division commanders.
This tree, in accordance with the fortune of my Xuanmen sect, has been divided into three, with each of the three elders receiving one.
One of them was planted by my teacher in front of the Shangqing Hall to receive the fortune of my Shangqing lineage.
The more flourishing my Shangqing lineage becomes, the more fruit this spiritual root bears each season, and the more mysterious its effects will become.
However, the way of Heaven is that there is gain and loss, and all things are mutually generating and restraining.
The efficacy of these jujubes also has its limits.
No matter how many spirit dates a person consumes in their lifetime, only the first three can nourish their essence and improve their innate qualities. The rest have no such wondrous effect and can only increase their magical power to some extent.
After listening to Duobao's explanation, Hu Le nodded without saying anything more.
The Heavenly Lord of Treasures had calmed down considerably, nodded helplessly, and handed Hu Le's plate of immortal dates back to him...
Just as the three were talking, a young Taoist boy came in to report that Zhao Gongming and others had come to request an audience.
Duobao glanced at Hu Le questioningly, and Hu Le nodded, indicating that it was okay to let him in and see him.
So the boy accepted the order and left, quickly leading a group of people into the hall.
In addition to Zhao Gongming and the three Yunxiao sisters, there are three more female immortals.
The three people in the hall rose to greet them.
Duobao introduced them to each other.
It turns out that the Shangqing Zhenren had four true disciples. Besides the eldest brother Duobao, the remaining three were these three female immortals.
Among them, the taller female immortal with a dignified face is named Jin Ling, who ranks second only to Duo Bao in the hierarchy of Shangqing.
The female immortal who followed her by one step, with a gentle face and graceful demeanor, was named Wudang and ranked third.
The last one remaining was called Guiling, and he ranked fourth...
The guests greeted each other and took their seats according to their respective roles as hosts and guests.
The Zhao siblings came to express their gratitude to Hu Le for helping them reclaim the Three Immortal Islands last time.
Jin Ling and the other two came purely out of curiosity.
They had long heard that their eldest brother had a sworn brother outside, who was not only the eldest disciple of the Heavenly Emperor Taiyi, but also possessed the physical body of Pangu and was personally recognized by their teacher as the true descendant of Pangu.
With such a person visiting, they naturally wanted to get to know him.
Of course, they only wanted to see Hu Le. As for Xianbao Tianjun next to him, although he was also Duobao's sworn brother.
However, the three women didn't take him seriously, regarding him as merely a figurehead who only nodded to the Treasure Offering Heavenly Lord out of respect for their senior brother, Duobao...
As they chatted, they gradually became familiar with each other, and the atmosphere in the hall quickly became much more lively.
Next, Duobao hosted a banquet to welcome his two brothers back, and Zhao Gongming and others were also invited to stay and keep them company.
As the banquet progressed into the night, everyone drank quite a bit of fine wine and liquor.
With the bright moon as their candle and the gentle breeze as their companion, everyone was slightly tipsy. As the banquet came to an end, they all dispersed, thoroughly enjoying themselves.
In the days that followed, Hu Le and the Treasure-Offering Heavenly Lord settled down in Duobao's cave...
Although the Kunlun Dharma Assembly has not yet officially started, practitioners from all over the country, whether or not they have received an invitation, have all rushed here as long as they have heard the news, ready to participate in this grand event.
The reason why the Three Pure Ones hold Dharma assemblies is mostly for the benefit of the Xuanmen (Taoist) community, and they naturally welcome all those who come seeking their fame.
As more and more people arrived, the entire Kunlun Mountains became incredibly lively.
They gathered in twos and threes, some wandering through the mountains and forests together, some playing chess under the trees, and some discussing profound philosophical concepts...
Hu Le and Xianbao Tianjun also joined in, spending their days in the Kunlun Wonderland and making quite a few friends.
On this day, the two heard that the Primordial Jade Purity Immortal was preparing to preach to all living beings at the Qilin Cliff behind Jade Purity Peak.
They rushed over excitedly.
They sat with the others at the foot of the cliff, listening to the Taoist Master Yuqing expound the Great Dao.
Yuqing Daoist possessed the legacy of Pangu and received the profound teachings of the Xuanmen from Hongjun Laozu. His words were full of profound mysteries of the Great Dao.
In an instant, flowers rained down from the sky and golden lotuses sprang from the ground across the entire Qilin Cliff. Auspicious energy filled the air and auspicious light enveloped the area, presenting a scene of tranquility and peace.
At the foot of Qilin Cliff sat several thousand cultivators who had come upon hearing the news.
Hu Le sat near the front, listening to the profound mysteries of the Great Dao, his eyes slightly closed, his face filled with intoxication.
Within his Purple Mansion Spiritual Platform, the Innate Yin-Yang Dao Seed rotated slightly, also emanating a profound aura.
Great supernatural beings like the Three Pure Ones, who are above the Great Luo level, are no longer confined to a particular innate Great Dao, but have begun to explore more Great Daos.
Yuqing Daoist alone has already studied the great Dao of Yin and Yang, the Three Powers and Four Symbols, cause and effect, and creation to an extremely high degree, almost as if he could read the text on the palm of his hand.
Therefore, in this sermon, he did not adhere to any particular Great Way, but rather spoke about all the Great Ways he had mastered.
The audience members also had their own moments of enlightenment.
When Daoist Yuqing was expounding on the Yin and Yang, Hu Le listened to the lecture while also diverting half of his attention to the innate Yin and Yang Dao seed.
Through the Great Dao as described by Daoist Yuqing, he began to comprehend the mysteries of the innate Yin-Yang Dao seed.
As time went by, Hu Le's understanding of the innate Yin-Yang Dao gradually improved, causing his cultivation to increase rapidly.
Unfortunately, this period of good fortune did not last long. Not long after, Daoist Yuqing ended his explanation of the Great Dao of Yin and Yang, leaving Hu Le with a deep sense of regret and forcing him to stop his comprehension of the Dao Seed.
However, he quickly regained his spirits.
It turned out that what Daoist Yuqing was about to talk about was the Great Dao of the Five Elements.
He immediately placed the bamboo staff on his knees, exhaled a breath of magical power, and began to refine the innate five elements Dao seeds within the bamboo staff, comprehending the wonders of the innate five-colored divine light.
As the Taoist Yuqing's sermon deepened, the bamboo staff that had been resting on Hu Le's knees began to float in the air, gradually radiating five-colored light.
First came the crimson light, then the yellow light, followed by the cyan light, then the white light, and finally a black light appeared.
As the five beams of light lit up one after another, they collided and intertwined, constantly evolving the wonders of the five elements' mutual generation and restraint...
Just as Hu Le was about to take the opportunity to push the Five-Colored Divine Light of the Innate to its ultimate form in one go, a melodious bell rang out from Qilin Cliff.
Master Yuqing stopped preaching, opened his calm, deep eyes, and looked up at the sky...
