The Primordial Jade Talisman was originally a gift from the Dao Ancestor Taiyi, and as an extremely powerful being, the gifts he bestowed must have something special about them.
He had already discovered that the Primordial Jade Talisman contained an engraved route leading to the other temple.
This road is mysterious and unpredictable, as if it were a passage connecting two different worlds.
Guided by the Primordial Jade Talisman, Hu Le's mind gradually drifted into the distance, and he embarked on this journey through time in a daze.
Time seems to have become blurred, and it's unclear how much time has passed—perhaps just a fleeting moment, or perhaps billions of years.
Finally, one day, Hu Le's mind seemed to reach the end of chaos, and suddenly his eyes were bright.
A vast and boundless void continent appeared ahead, a continent as beautiful and magnificent as a fairyland.
A colossal palace stretches endlessly across the sky above the continent, radiating boundless, dazzling light.
Each palace was enveloped in clusters of brilliant, colorful rays of light and purple mist, exuding an air of mystery and solemnity.
Hu Le put away the Primordial Jade Talisman in his hand, carefully took a step, and prepared to cross the void and fly towards the sky above that mysterious continent.
However, just as he stepped into that void, his vision suddenly blurred, the surrounding scenery changed instantly, and his body also floated and shifted.
When he came to his senses, he found himself inexplicably back in his original position.
Hu Le frowned slightly, pondering the changes that had just occurred.
After a moment of thought, he suddenly understood something, and a look of realization appeared on his face.
So he decided to try again. This time he bowed deeply in the direction of the Dao Palace, silently prayed and offered his blessings, and then stepped into the void once more.
This time, something miraculous happened. There were no more obstacles in the void, and Hu Le flew smoothly all the way until he arrived at the Dao Palace.
When Hu Le arrived at the square in front of the Dao Palace, he saw that the Primordial Tree standing in front of the Dao Palace gate suddenly moved without any wind.
The branches and leaves began to sway and rustle.
As the Primordial Tree swayed, dappled spiritual light dripped down from its branches.
These luminous lights appeared silvery-white, as if they were the essence of stars falling from the sky.
In an instant, the entire square was enveloped by this mysterious and beautiful power, becoming dreamlike and magnificent.
Bathed in this spiritual light, Hu Le walked happily toward the Primordial Tree.
When he walked up to the tree, he released a divine sense to scan the Primordial Tree.
However, at that moment, he was surprised to discover that there was a huge consciousness inside the tree.
This consciousness, like a sleeping giant, is in a state of stillness.
Hu Le was stunned. He realized that this Primordial Tree had already developed its own sentience.
At the same time, that consciousness seemed to have noticed his spying, but it did not get angry or upset. It simply flicked Hu Le's divine sense out gently.
Just then, a branch of the Primordial Tree suddenly broke off and slowly floated down in front of Hu Le.
Hu Le reached out and caught the branch.
The branch was about three feet long, adorned with dozens of palm-sized green leaves, and its entire body was enveloped in a wisp of primordial spiritual energy.
Hu Le held the branch in his hand, observed it carefully for a while, and instantly understood its purpose.
This is a branch of a top-tier spiritual root from the Primordial Chaos. If used to refine spiritual treasures, its wonders would certainly not be inferior to the Seven Treasures Tree in the hands of the Sage Zhunti.
However, for Hu Le, this treasure was not indispensable.
The purple bamboo staff in his hand had already undergone a transformation, and a primordial embryo had even been nurtured within it.
Next, as long as he continues to improve his cultivation and spiritual power, and nourishes it with his own magic power and primordial spirit, the mystery and power of the Purple Bamboo Staff will inevitably continue to increase...
"Thank you, fellow Daoist!" Hu Le smiled, gathered up the branches, and bowed to the precious tree.
The Primordial Tree shook slightly, as if in response to Hu Le.
After thanking him, Hu Le walked to the palace gate.
Hu Le stood in front of the palace gate, but before he could even raise his hand to knock, the gate opened slowly and automatically.
Immediately afterwards, a boy who looked like he had been carved in the shape of a porcelain doll came out from inside.
The boy was dressed in a blue robe, with two cute buns in his hair, and his eyes were bright and lively, making him look very clever.
"May I ask if you are the young master Xuanxiang?" The boy blinked his big eyes, looked Hu Le up and down, and then took the initiative to ask.
Upon hearing the question, Hu Le smiled and nodded: "It is indeed this humble Taoist."
Upon hearing this, the boy's initially wary gaze instantly brightened, and he said with a smile, "Young master, you've come at the perfect time! The master is waiting for you in the hall! Please come in!"
Hu Le smiled slightly, cupped his hands in thanks, and said, "In that case, I cannot keep the teacher waiting any longer. Please lead the way, young servant."
The boy nodded obediently, then turned and walked towards the palace on his short legs, with Hu Le following behind at a leisurely pace.
Before long, the two arrived in front of a grand hall.
Above the palace gate hangs a plaque with three large characters written on it: Wuqiu Hall.
Hu Le looked up and glanced inside, then stepped into the Wuqiu Hall.
Upon entering the hall, he found that the interior was extremely simple and plain, with almost no decorations except for a few bare jade pillars.
In the center of the main hall, there was a cloud bed, where an old man with white hair and a tortoise-like back, dressed in a gray Taoist robe, sat with his back to Hu Le.
This old man was none other than the Dao Ancestor of Taiyi.
Hu Le stepped forward and came to the cloud bed. He knelt down and said, "Disciple Xuanxiang greets Master."
The somewhat aged voice of the Taiyi Dao Ancestor slowly rang out: "Disciple, there's no need for such formalities. Rise."
Upon hearing this, Hu Le stood up from the ground and stood respectfully behind the Taiyi Dao Ancestor.
Taiyi Daozu did not turn around, but said slowly, "You have come here today because you have something to ask your master?"
Hu Le nodded and replied, "Teacher, I have recently gained some insights and have come to ask you for guidance."
Taiyi Daozu smiled slightly and said, "Oh? Why don't you tell me about it?"
Hu Le then slowly recounted the profound truths he had come to understand.
Taiyi Daozu listened attentively, nodding occasionally in agreement.
After Hu Le finished speaking, Taiyi Daozu asked, "These are your recent insights?"
Hu Le nodded in agreement and looked forward to Taiyi Daozu's comments.
Taiyi Daozu pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and said, "Indeed, it seems you have indeed gained some insight."
However, the path ahead is boundless, and your journey is still long; you must not slacken your efforts.
Hu Le was overjoyed, knowing that the Taiyi Dao Ancestor had affirmed his cultivation achievements.
Then, the Taiyi Dao Ancestor asked some other questions, which Hu Le answered one by one...
